Be Warned, All Men; Don't Drink
BoOtleggers' Liquor.

The deaths and sickness of many
men in various parts of the country
resulting from the drinking of pois-
ons sold for Christmas holidays under
the names Of gin and whiskey should
be a warning to every one. In New
York last week many persons were
killed and many rendered unconscious
by the stuff they bought to celebrate
Christmas with, and reports are not
all in yet, either. One should not
drink liquor these days unless it is
from private stock owned by them
selves and friends and purchased be-
fore the prohibition law went into
effect.
1t is against the law to sell liquor
and it is against the law to buy it;
never mind about that though, for
men who long for strong drink will
take chance Of breaking statute.
But when these men realize that death
will follow lawbreaking they will
probably quit buying and drinking.
The most appalling thing about it
is that the bootleg whiskey now be-
ing sold, if it does not kill. makes the
victim totally blind 1t is wood al
cohol that does it; this dreadful pois-
on PARALLELS the optic nevre and the
drinker of the vile stuff is bereft Of
his eyesight all the years of his life.
New Year is at hand, and the best
thing that drinkers can do is to swear
off; take an oath never to dring boot
leg liquor again. Do this-swear off
and live long in the land which the
Lord has given unto you.

WHO'S THE AUTHOR?

Tuesday evening The Republican
was in receipt Of the following poem,
which was transmitted through the
local postoffice, the envelope bearing
the Oakland cancellation stamp, the
writer's name having been eliminated
ed, hence his or her identity is I'M
known, but the poem has a value, and
is given space in these columns:
The man who cheats a printer
Out of a single cent
Will never reach that heavenly land
Where good Elijah went.
He will wander up and down the earth
In sorrow and regret,
And have to buck around right smart
In cussedness, you bet.
Without friend to greet him
Without a pleasant grin,
The happiness that he will reap
Win be almighty thin.

MARYLAND POSTMASTERS

Study Duties as Public Servants

Officials viii Go To Baltimore to
Study Duties as Public Servants
Newly-appointed postmasters of the
second and third classes in the State
of Maryland will be compelled to at
tend school at the Baltimore office,
according to a general order sent out
by Postmaster General Hays. f-they
do not appear in person they may at
least keep in touch with Baltimore by
telephone or telegraph.
The Baltimore office will be known
as the central accounting place for the
State, and among the many things the
new postmaster must be taught are
how he is to meet the public, what a
postmasters place is in the community,
how to educate the public in the use
of the mails, how to handle complaints
and guard the mails. Just now armed
marines are assisting in the guardian
ship.
The postmaster is told by his gen.
eral at Washington that his towns
welfare, to very great extent, de-
ponds upon his willingness and ca
pacity to give it better postal service
Upon his graduation from the school
the newly-appointed postmaster is ex-
pected to write the Department and
give a review of what he has learned
and the value of the instructions
given.
The short intense course of in
struction is expected to be of great
benefit to the public and to the
smoother operation of the local postal
machinery.

been president of the board for some
two years or more, was then placed

BAUGHMAN AND RICHIE
HIT PROHIBITION LIQUOR
Frequent Motor Accidents Laid to
Intoxicated Drivers, Carless-
ness Also Blamed.

One of the chief causes of automo-
bile accidents in Maryland, especially
fatal accidents, was cited by E. Aus
tin Baughman, Commissioner of Mo-
tor Vehicles, as prohibition liquor.
Governor Richie agreed that driv-
ing automobiles while being under
the influence of liquor was big fac
tor, but believed that apparently I'M
preventable human carlessness was
responsible for a distressingly large
number of accidents. He even said
that the extensive educational cam
paign conducted in "No Accident
Week" produced only temporary eff
feet, apparently, if any at all.
The Governor agreed that four of
the chief causes are "road-hogging,'
reckless passing of care at high speed
passing cars at high speed on tops
of hills, and the use of binding lights
There are laws enough on the
statute books to protect both the mo-
torist and pedestrian" Commission
er Baughman said. "This does not
mean, however, that some of the laws
should not be bettered. We are try
ing to better them at each legislative
session. There are laws against all
the offenses mentioned and against
the chief one that is not mentioned
driving while under the influence of
prohibition liquor.
"The State police are doing a good
job patrolling the highways, but they
cannot be everywhere at once, and
the reckless motorists know it. 1t
was proved during the races that the
presence of an adequate police force
on the road, when its presence is gen.
orally known, acts as a powerful de-
torrent on the spedsters.
Because of that, | believe a larger
State police force would have a moral
as well as a material effect in reduc-
ing violations of the law, and there
by reduce the number of accidents.
"Lawless speed is the direct cause
of the majority of accidents. Less
liquor in the car, more police on the
roads and more severe penalties for
violations are the most effective pre-
tentative measures | know"
With Justice Staylor, of the Traffic
Court action speaks louder than words
He hands out 500 fines and jail
sentences, but his business keeps or
increasing. After a hard days work
fining violators of all types, he thinks
the only way to prevent automobile
accidents and violations is to forbid
all motorists to drive automobiles.

RETAINS HIS OFFICE
Mr.. J. A. fowler to Remain in Garrett
County as County Agent.


County as County Agent.
The resignation of Mr. James A.
fowler as County Agent, was an
nounced some ten days ago and when
it became known throughout the
county that he contemplated giving
up his work here, a movement was
started among the farmers with a
view of retaining him in his official
position. This movement on the part
of those interested in the work of the
county agent has resulted in the with
drawal of the resignation and Mr..
fowler will remain in Garrett county.
A delegation of farmers from sew
eral section of the county met DR.. T.
B. Symons, director of extension SER
vice in Maryland, at the Court House
in Oakland on Monday last and urged
that his resignation be not accepted
and that he be retained in office. In
view of the strong protest made by
the pepole of the county against his
leaving, Mr.. fowler consented to con.
tinue his work here.
Petitions asking the retention OF
Mr.. fowler were signed by more than
twelve hundred residents of Garrett
county, which in itself constituted q
very fiattering endorsement of Mr.
fowler and his work, and in the face
Of which he did not feel that he could
at this time press the acceptance Of
his resignation.

NEGRO RECEIVES WARNING
TO LEAVE TOWN

Some days ago, Ernest Stepney, a
c~olored mar Of Grenada, received a
notice p%urporting to be from the Ku
Klux advising him and all other ne
groes to leave Grenada on or by
May 90. The notice was printed
with pen and ink and was signed
"K. X. K" The writer saw the notice
almost Immediately after it's receipt.
1t was mailed in Grenada and went
through the post Office in due course.
It was not thought to be anything
serious and is not yet believed to be
serious; in truth there can be but lit
tie doubt that it was either written
in a spirit of mischief or by some
designing person on his individual re-
sponsibility. A detective has been
in Grenada for several days on the
job and may at the proper time make
a report locating the writer of the
notice to the Stepney negro. The
Sentinel but voices the sentiment of
the town and County, and indeed
the best thought of Mississippi, in
saying that no good man will endorse
underhand methods at anything and
this paper especially wishes to as
sure the negroes of Grenada and
Grenada County that the white peo-
pie of the County are with them in
all things that are right and that
they do not believe in srary or anony-
nous communications to handle any
proposition. The whole thing, The
Sentinel believes, is a fake, but in
