MOVE TO ABOLISH COUNTY
AGENT

A movement has been launched
against the appointment of a county
agent to succeed P. A. Hauver, resign
ed. A petition signed by farmers re-
siding along the Cemetery pike, Car
rollton Manor, and from the vicinity
of Walkersville, urging that no new
county agent be appointed, was pre-
sented to the Board Of County COM
missioners Monday morning by Eu-
gene A. Sponseller.
The petition sets forth that the
roads of the county, including the
Cemetery pike and the Manor road,
are in bad shape and are in urgent
need of repairs. The petition claims
the following: 'That the salary de-
manded by the new agent is $4,000
year;that the salary OF a clerk for the
county agent is to be $1,000 year;
that by abolishing the Office of county
agent the county will save $4,000 an
nually; that this money could very
proftably be expended on the public
roads of the county,"
Mr.. Sponseller stated that he had
received messages from all over the
county indorsing his stand and pledg-
ed cooperation in the movement to
abolish the Office of county agent. He
says that several petitions will be cir
culated in widely separated districts Of
the county.
"We want people who will go to
work and not people who will 90
around and tell us how to work." says
Mr.. Sponseller. "Bossism is too
great for laborism at present"

INJUNCTION TO STOP ERECTION
OF STAVE MILL.

Judge Glenn H. Worthington sitting
as court of equity has given Oscar
H. Trexler and G. ]. Heintzleman
trading as the Hickory Run Manufac-
turing Company, until May "a, tos how
cause why the injunction which Jo-
seph E. Thropp has secured, restrain
ing them from erecting two addition
al stave mills in this county should
not be made permanent. Thropp is
represented by Jacob Rohrback and
Milton G. Urner, Jr., while the de-
PENDANTS are represented by William
M. Storm and Frank L. Stoner.
In the bill of complaint filed by the
plaintiff, he alleges that he is the
owner of 10,470 acres of land in and
about Catoctin Furnace, in Thurmont
district A large portion of the land is
in growing timber. He states that he
is a resident of Bedford county, Pa,
while the defendants are residents of
Lehigh county, Pa, with George H.
Trexler as resident manager and
agent in Frederick county.
The plaintiff contends that on De-
cember %, 1914, he entered into an
agreement with the defendants CIV
ing them the right to install stave
million his property. He agreed to
sell timber to be used in the manu-
facture of cement barrel slaves and
that the timber should be delivered at
a convenient place to the defendants.
In September, 1917, another agree
ment was entered into with the de-
PENDANTS whereby they were to be
supplied with enough timber to run
their mill. The complainant AYERS
that the defendants have built two
unauthorized mills on land adjacent to
his and were running them on timber
taken from his land. He contends
that they contemplate erecting an
other mill. For this reason the plain
tiff is suffering irreparable loss, he
says, and petitions the court to re-
strain the defendants from taking the
timber and also from erecting an adj
ditional mill.-Frederick News. =

ALEXANDER BELL
Is LAID TO REST
Lakes Are StIII and Villagers Bow Heads
AS Body Of inventor is Placed Under
Green.

BRADDECK, N. s., Aug. All the
villagers of Baddeck trudged to the peak
of Benin Bredgh mountain this evening
and stood in reverence at sunset while
the body of DR.. Alexander Bell, was laid
tenderly to rest after life of rs years in
which he gave to the world the telephone
and other inventions.
Over his tomb, blasted from rock that
looked down on all of eastern Nova Sco-
tia and the beautiful Bras Dor Lakes
stood the watch tower built years ago by
the inventor; below the quiet woodland
and the serene lakes, on whose waters
Dr. Bell experimental with speed boats
and fast water sleds.
The lakes were still and all the craft
that sailed upon their waters stood mo-
tionless at the funeral hour. In the viii
Iage every shop and store was closed
and each home sents it's occupants to the
mountain top. No one was left in the
laboratories and work shops where DR.
Bell and his helpers busted thmselves
in summertime. Every one had gone to
give respect at the burial of the vener-
able scientists from another land whom
all the natives loved.
For one moment during the service al
of the 10, 000, 900 telephones in the United
States and Canada were silent.

RALEIGH, n. c., Aug. 4-As a matter
of precaution, the Durham machine gun
company of the North Carolina national
guard has been ordered to Raleigh to
guard three negro prisoners rushed to
state prison here this morning following
their arrest in connection with the attack
on a white woman and the shooting of
her husband near Southern Pines.
A. f. Kethen, of Miami, Fla, who was
seriously wounded while attempting to
defend his wife from attack, was taken

Mr.. and Mrs. Ketchen who were en-

near Southern Pines. Their tent was in
vaded early today by three negroes who
demanded money, according to the story
told by the husband, and when he reach
ed for his pistol, one of the intruders
opened fire. Ketchen was wounded in
the breast and was unable to assist his
wife when, she was pursued by the ne
groes.
Twenty minutes after Sheriff Blue ar

the state penitentiary, they were filled
with men who asked if the sheriff had
arrived but made not attempt to inter-

During the afternoon, other automo-

prison force during the night.
