GARRETT SPEECH BY RADIO
Will Send Final Message To Voters
Over WEAR.

Sound waves speeding through the
night will carry to voters of Mary
land the final message Of John w.
Garrett, candidate for the Republi.
can Senatorial nomination, as the
primary fight closes next Saturday
night.
Probably 5000 or more persons will
hear Mr.. CARROTS address as it is
broadcast by WEAR, The Balti-
more News and the American station
A novelty in the country at large and
an untried experiment in Maryland,
the "radiO stump" is expected to at
tract wide attention. Pennsylvania,
it is said, is the only other State in
which the radio has been utilized in
a political campaign.
The address by Mr.. Garrett will be-
gin promptly at Z P. M. Saturday. Re-
ceivers should tune in or 800 meters.

b. & o. ANNULS TWO TRAINS
No. II, Westbound, and No. u, East
bound, Taken Out of Service.

An order issued Monday and eff
fective at once, by the passenger de-
partment of the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad Company, took out of ser
vice that day passenger train No. II,
westbOund, due in Oakland at 1888 in
afternoon, and train No. II, east
bound. due at SOL in the evening.
Both trains were passenger and
mail carriers and were the most i'm
portant trains, locally, passing thru
Oakland. Mail from the east is now
delivered to the local postoffice from
the afternoon accommodation train,
due at five o'clock. No provision has
been made for the dispatch of mail
matter eastward after 2:40 in the af-
ternoon, as train No 4, due shortly
after midnight, is not met by the To-
cal railroad employees, thus if one
should desire mail despatched east
ward during the afternoon it must be
in the local postoffice prior to two
o'clock, else it will not be sent until
train No. ,, due at 9:15 the following
morning.
The reason assigned by the rail
road officials for the order annuling
the two trains in question is that the
motive power is required to move coal
and other commodities.

FOUR PITTSBURG PEOPLE
IN AUTOMOBILE CRASH
At Deep Creek Bridge Sunday
When Machine Owed Into Water

Sunday afternoon four people in
Hupmobile, bearing a Pennsylvania
license tag and hailing from Pitts
burgh, experienced a miraculous es-
cape from instant death or serious
injury when the car catapulted over
the masonry at the north end of DeeD
Creek bridge, twelve miles north of
town, and struck bottom up in the bed
Of the stream, distance Of some
twelve or fifteen feet from the road
bed.
The party was composed Of Mr..
and Mrs. Charles A. Bruce and Mr..
and Mrs. Harry r. Porter, who were
on their way to Oakland to remain
for day or two. Approaching the
bridge, which is one-way structure
without guard rails at the ends, the
driver Of the Pennsylvania car did not
see another car upon the bridge until
he was about to enter. A slight rain
that had fallen but a few minutes
before caused the road to be slippery
and the brakes being applied sud-
denly made the car skid and it went
over the retaining wall at the end
Of the bridgs, falling distance of
twelve feet upon the forward end and
then turning over end for end with
the four passengers pinned within it.

number of men who live nearby and
who were attracted to the scene by
the crash and screams Of the women.
The injured were brought to Oak
land where they were given medical
and surgical attention and after re-
naming here until Tuesday returned
TO their homes by train.

quired the work of a generation to rid
our county of the curse of rum.
On the other hand, Mr.. Garrett, the
other Republican candidate for Sena-
torial honors, has not said that he
is opposed to the Eighteenth Amend
ment nor to the Volstead act. He has
recently modified his views pertaining
to the manufacture and sale of light
wine and beer and as a result he has
been placed in the dry column by the
"wet" forces of Maryland.
This act alone, on the part of the
booze people, should be and is, sTf-
ficient recommendation for Mr.. Gar
rett as a dry man and for him, as an
ultra-dry voter, shall take pleasure
in casting my ballot, and upon every

do likewise.
