lead the fight this yea- against
Representative C. B. Slemp. the
Democratic convention held at Bris-

Gratis to have picked the strongest
man in the district to carry on the
night against Mr.. Slemp.
Mr.. Peery is regarded by many
as one of the strongest lawyers
in the State and as strong as any
at his age, but beyond this he Is
known as a mixer and a man who
has a large family connection
which, IL is thought, will be quite
a factor in the impending cam
paign.
Over His own Protest.
Peery was named over his own
protest and despite the fact that
he issued a statement several days
before the Bristol convention that
he would not accept the nomina-
tion. When he saw that the con-
vention was unanimous however.
he accepted the nomination. He
declared that his effort will be to
redeem the Ninth and, incidentally.
give the Old Dominion a solid
Democratic delegation in Congress.
1t has long been claimed that
one of the weaknesses of the
Democratic party in the Ninth dis
trict has been to keep its strength
qualified. for the voters there seem
to have a regular failing to over
look that six months prepayment
of their capitation taxes. Another
condition has been the personal

Old Contest.

LEESBURG, Va, March 25.-The
State Corporation Commission has
ended the fight between the town
of Leesburg and the Washington
and Old Dominion Railway winch
began in the summer of 1920.
The town, through its chamber
of commerce and municipal authori-
ties, complained to the commits
sion of defects in the service, from
Washington to Bluemont. Public
hearings were held here in Septem-
Der, 1920, and the commission or
dered the company to correct GER
tain faults. including frequent and
unnecessary delays Of passenger
and freight trains, slow delivery OF
milk at Rosslyn. inadequacy of cars
to accommodate passenger traffic,
bad lighting and toilet arrange
ments, lack of proper headlights
and air brakes. Later, fines ag-
gregating more than $1,000 were
imposed on the company because
of its failure to obey the orders.
From this ruling appeal was
taken to the State Court Of APP
peals. The railway company now
withdraws its appeal. comedies the
jurisdiction of the commission and
promises to obey orders. In con-
sideration of withdrawal of the APP
peal and submission to the commits
sion, the fine is reduced TO 1878.
The railway, which carries
large proportion of Washington's
milk supply, also announces a re-
duction of rates on milk and cream.
on 5-galIon cans the rate is re-
duced from 20 to II cents: on 7ia-
gallon cans from % to "a cents,
and on ten gallons from 3s to 81.
The reductions are effective from
April to August 81.

complish anything toward sup
pressing lawIessness in that section
of the county bordering on the Dis
trict Of Columbus as urged by Judge
Edward c. Peter in mis- charge to

Reluctance of witnesses to tes-
tify and the inability of officers n
obtain evidence were assigned as
the cause.
The jury recommended that one
of the salaried constables OF the
county be assigned as special as
sistant to the States attorney for
the purpose of investigating these
violations of law. The suggestion
has been approved by the county
commissioners.

Threatens Trade
OF Gretna Green
Maryland Law Would Delay
Many Rapid-Fire
Marriages.

ROCKVILLE, Nd, March %. -
Rockville, long known as Gretna
Green, will be hard hit. So far as
the issuance of marriage licenses
Is concerned. IL a bill now pending
in the legislature is enacted into
law. The measure has passed the
senate, and its passage by the house
and approval by Gov. Richie is
expected within the next few days.
The measure requires all couples
not residents of Maryland to wait
forty-eight hours after application
before they will be issued licenses
to marry. As about two-thirds of
the 700 or more couples who OBJ
tain license here each year come
from outside the State, the enact
ment of such a law is certain to
very greatly diminish Rockville's
marriage license business.
The bill is Statewide. and does
not apply to residents of Maryland.

a message from the dead doctor,
through a medium selected as it's
bearer, that he will be present in
spirit at the party as guest of
honor.
To Have Honor Seat.
Preparations for the dinner have
not only been renewed, but a larg-
er attendance than at first arrang
ed for is assured. A chair will be
set for the spirit guest and the
program calls for him to make the
principal address of the evening.
Those who are arranging the din
ner have not the slightest doubt of
the naturalization of the honor
guest, nor have they any doubt that
words of good cheer and comfort
will come from him, even if the
message is again conveyed through
a spirit breathed from Astra Land.
This confidence is based upon a
second message from DR.. PEBBLES,
sent through a bearer whose spirit
las materialized before his.
This second message was sent to
Mrs. Susie MacFarland Page, in
whose apartment the eminent spir-
itualist passed away and who was
a close friend.

it reached to God and God was

step to the brink of the river Jor-
dan and, locking across with me
to the other side, saw that there is
no death" is one of the cheering
and reassuring passages to the
spiritualists from this second mes
sage.
Welded to his belief in spiritual
ism DR.. PEBBLES at the time of his
death felt he already had bridged
in spirit the gap that lies beyond
the grave and regarded death with
out fear or concern as merely a re-
lease to higher and happier sphere
Of life. The Longer Life club,
which celebrates his birthday, has
on its rolls many prominent men
and women who are one in their
faith in a correlated and very hui
man spirit world.
