Three Injured When
Scafolding Clues Way

What came near being fatal acci.
dent to many workmen occurred on
Tuesday morning, when some of the
scaffolding at the new Municipal
building, now in course of construct.
ion, gave way and carrying several
workrnen with it from the third t.
the second floor.
Mr.. Allen Mariner was injured in
ternally besides being severely bruis-
ed. 1t is not thought his injuries are
serious as he is now at his post again.
Mr.. G. p. Hudson and colored work
man were also injured but were able
to resume work later in the day. 1t
was only a matter of luck that the
damage was not more serious as there
were many workmen all around where
the scaffolding fell.

Old Keller Fair
Was Largely Attended

The Keller Fair at Keller, Acco-
mac county, Va, which is by far the
senior of any fair in this section, held
its 1922 meet this week and was
largely attended. For many years it
has been the meeting place of thous-
ands of old friends and as it grows in
years it grows also in popularity. Not
only is it place where social enjoy
ment is experienced, but it is an agri-
cultural fair in deed and in truth. The
exhibits are always fine and the rae
ing is generally as good as seen any
where. The free attractions are more
IN number than at any other fair on
the Shore and are always high class.
This year was in no way an exception
to the rule and the vast throngs that
were admitted through the gates were
more than pleased with the great
show. Pocomoke was well represent
ed and especially on Thursday many
of our people were in attendance.

100000 HOTEL
FOR OCEAN CITY
Structure To Be Built On Board
walk, And Will Be One Of
Best There.

y Plans for newS hotel for Ocean
City were announced last Saturday b\
Thurman D. Mason, of Ocean City.
The Mason family has been in the
hotel business for a number of years,
having operated the Mount Pleasant
for the past five years, and are well
known in Ocean City.
The new hotel will cost 100000 and
will be ready for occupancy about
Easter, 1923. 1t will be on the Board
walk. No site has yet been selected,
but two are under consideration.
The hotel will be one of the most
up-to-date and complete in Ocean
City. Besides large living accommo-
dations, all sorts of amusement de-
vices for the guests will be provided.
These will include a saltwater SWIM
ming pool, bowling alleys and large
dance floor Boating parties for sail
ing and fishing will be arranged by
the hotel.
Unlike the majority of the hotels at
the resort which are situated directly
on the Boardwalk, the Mason's hotel
will set back a short way and be sur
rounded by large porch.
Incorporation papers were filed
with the State Tax Commissioners on
July 19. The hotel was Incorporated
under the name of the Mason-Dixon
Hotel. Mrs. S. M. Mason, DIR. Otho
Mason and DR.. Edmund Burk, all OF
Ocean City, were named as the in
corporators. The stock has not yet
heen offered to the public Either the
B. H. Gibson Company, of Chicago, or
H. L. Stevens & Co., Of New York,
will have charge of the construction.
Many other improvements are un-
der way for Ocean City for next year.
At a recent sale of building lots hun
dreds of persons bought them. The
lots sold at between $3.50 and $500
apiece.

Warm Primary Fight
Will Culminate Sept. II
Well Known Political Writer Forecasts Nominations Of Dr.
France, Republican, And VIM, l. Norris, Democrat,
AS The Successful Candidates.

The democratic situation in Balti
more, is chaotic-very chaotic at the
present time-there is no use in con.
cealing the fact. The city organiza.
tion is badly demoralized, and the
county democrats, who, in obedience
to some of the State leaders have
lined up for Mr.. Bruce, may as well
make up their minds to the true state
of affairs.
The Baltimore Sun, which is vigor-
ously advocating Mr.. Bruce dealt him
a body blow when it made it's sensa-
tional attack on Frank Kelley as the
king of the underworld and the ruler
of tha criminal classes, which it is
keeping up with zeal from day to day,
in both morning and evening editions.
Mr.. Kelley was the one of the two
leaders who came out first for Mr..
Bruce, and he and his faction had
great difficulty in pcrsuading Mr. Ma
hon and his lieutenants to take up Mr..
Kelleys choice, for Mr.. Mahon has a
strong feeling for Mr.. Norris, and
was opposed to complicating the stu
alton by having three candidates in
the field,-and the great majority OF
the wet democrats were openly back
ing N ,rris, who was responsible for
the defeat of the Anti Prohibition en-
forcement law IN the last two ses-
sions Of the General Assembly.
The attacks in the city papers have
weakened Kelley's power and without
Kelley's support Bruce would never
have become a candidate. Senator
Smith would never have forgiven him
and taken up his cause, and with Kel-
ley eliminated from power and infu-
ence, the city will go for Norris be-
yond Il doubt.
And many of the ablest and most
influential of the ward leaders, quiet
ly say that the organization support
will be largely perfunctory, that the
two chief leaders have become so full
of wrath at the action of the Sun,
that in the last analysis they will sit
down and let that newspaper carry
on the Bruce campaign in its own
way, and leave the responsibility for
The issue where it properly belongs.

Salisbury For Last.
Standing of the Clubs
Thursday Night, August 31)

By losing to Crisfeld Thursday
while Salisbury was winning from
Laurel, Pocomoke now is in tie for
last place in the Eastern Shore
League.
Crisfield again won their series
from Pocomokc, winning Wednesday,
game to 3 and Thursdays game 4
to 2. Wednesday at Crisfeld, Philips
worked for Pocomoke, and pitched a
fair nticle of ball. The local team
should have won easily, Ia hits being
made eff of Knowlton's delivery, but
poor base running cost several runs.
THURSDAY, Alexander was defeate'

and Hornsberger, Mcdonald and
Decker following with singles, which
accounted for Pocomoke's two runs.
Last Friday, the home club travelled
to Salisbury, and were defeated 1 to
0. Philips and Roache were the op-
posing pitchers, and they staged a
pretty duel. Hearne, Salisbury CEN
terfelder, driving in the only run of
the day in the seventh inning.
Salisbury came to town Saturday,
and with Hearne going good, they
looked like sure winners. With the
score 3 to favor Salisbury in the
sixth inning, Ducky Davis led off with
a hit and Gordy sent one over the
fence for homer and Mcknight fol-
lowed with another home run, tieing
the score. In the eighth inning,
Hearne was driven from the box, PO-
comOke scoring runs, and Gordy won
another game.
Last Monday and Tuesday were op-
en- dates in the League and Cape

The contests for the nomination!
for the United States Senate, whicl
eliminate in both parties on Monday
Sept. IL, are warming up as the days
go by, but up to the present time they
have teen in great measure free
from all sorts of unpleasant personal
tiles among both democrats and re
publicans. In fact all the PERSONAL.
ties of any sort have been confined to
the party and political records of the
several candidates, ana efforts are be.
ing made by the candidates them.
selves and their friends, to keep with.
in bounds in all their activities in be-
half OF their favorite aspirants fol
the nomination.
So tas as the republicans are con
cerned, there is every indication that
Senator France will win the nomina-
ton with ease, ana by very large
majority. Very nearly all the really
active and effective workers in the re-
publican. organization are openly
working for DR.. France. Why, they
cannot tell, but they are working for
him regardless of expense, regardless
of the fact that Mr.. John w. Garrett
is so greatly superior to his opponent
in all that goes to make up senatorial
qualifications, that it is absurd to
mention them as Senatorial timber in
the same breath.
Mr.. CARROTS whole campaign has
been handicapped and weighted down
by the incompetency and inefficiency
of his organization. if it can be called
an organization, which has been top
heavy from the start with respectable
ity and ignorance of the most rudi-
menta?y principles of practical poll
tics.
With a candidate of the sort he is,
he should have had no difficulty in
defeating an erratic radical, like DR..
France, for the nomination, but all
the real advantages on his side have
been counteracted by the political
skill of his opponent, who has shown
during the past two months that
whatever else he may be, he is re-
shrewd and skillful manipu-
lator in the field of the sort of prac-
tical politics prevalent in Maryland
at the present time.
