COAL MINERS AT BAYARD
HOLD MASS MEETING
Principal Address is Delivered
by District President Drum.

A big mass meeting of miners was
held Sunday afternoon at Bayard, in
the Upper Potomac field, along the
Western Maryland Railway, IA miles
south of Oakland. The principal
speaker was Frank j. Drum, of Cum
berland, president of District No. 16,
United Mine Workers of America. 1t
was under the auspices of Local PATS,
United Mine Workers of America.
c. Lee Weymouth, Cumberland, also
made an address. Many unorganized
men were in attendance.
Work has been in progress at
Davis w. Va. The Blackwater mines
work full time and mines Nos.29 and
So of the Davis Coal and Coke Com
pany are on part time, according to re-
port.
The authorities of Davis dispersed
a body of pickets posted by union men
to attempt to persuade non-union men
from keeping at work. The town au
thorltleS OF DAVIS are backed by the
state police. An ordinance against
lettering and unlawful assembly has
been posted.
Officials of the United Mine Work
ers deny that a large number of men
have resumed work in the mines Of
the Freeport Coal Company at Crel-
lin,near Oakland. They say that only
one mine with about Is men is oper-
ating in the Crellin neighborhood.
The Georges Creek mines are COM
pletely closed down and, according to
union advices. the mines working in
the Upper Potomac territory are not
producing over 20 cars of coal day.
That would be about 1000 tonsA

The County Tax Rate Remains
the Same as Last Year.

The Republican has for publication
the annual county levy made this
week by the Board of County Com
missioners, which will be printed in
these columns in its next issue.
In addition to the regular appropri.
ations for roads, bridges and other
fixed charges, the Commissioners. un.
der the laws passed at the recent ses-
sion of the Legislature were COM
PEELED to appropriate nearly $50, 900
over the amount provided last year
for school purposes, the extra sum to
be used in meeting the increased pay
in teachers salaries. Another item
which is additional to that of last
year is the sum of $4,000 for a new
general assessment which has been
ordered by the State Tax Commits
sion.
The rate of taxation, however, re-
mains the same as last year, S1.66.

STATE ROADS CONDITION
AGITATES HUTTON CITIZENS
Unfinished Link From w. Va,
Into Maryland Nearly impossible

Citizens of Hutton, Md, are agi-
tated over the condition of their dirt
roads as a result of the near compile.
ton but yet unfinished State roads Of
West Virginia and Maryland, which
lack two miles of meeting in their
neighborhood
John N. Mackall, chairman of the
Maryland State Roads Commission,
in an explanation addressed to Rep
resentative Zihlman points out that
the delay is due to a change in the
West Virginia Highway Depart
ment's plans. The two, however, will
be built later, he indicated.
L. R. Horton, vice president, of the
Lang-Horton Tanning Company, at
Hutton, has taken the lead in seeking
early action. In letter to Represen-
tative Zihlman he calls atteption t.
the fact that the West Virginia STATE
road to Terra Alta has been compile
ted, as well as the Maryland State
road from Oakland to Crellin. Two
miles more, he says, are needed to
link the two systems.
"This is resulting in increased traf
fic through Hutton" he writes, "cut
ting up the dirt roads so as to make
them almost impossible for teams,
to say nothing of mOtorcars."
Many citizens in that vicinity, he
says, contributed to purchase the
right of way for completing the
State road Citizens Of Oakland,
Crellin and Hutton are earnestly hop
ing it will be completed this summer
If need be, he says, they would even
prefer to see the State bridge planned
for that point delayed another year
if it would hasten the completion OF
the highway.
The letter was forwarded by Mr.
Iihlman, and the Highway Commiss-
toner's answer to it came Friday.
"The facts are" says Mr.. Mack
all, that the West Virginia Highway
Department has decided to abandon
the road going to Terra Alta as .
State highway and have recommended
another road going in somewhere
about Red House and going out at
Gormania. If this is done | am sure
the logical thing for Us to do would
be to continue the road from Gortner
down to Red House.
we very much hope, however,
that the West Virginia Highway Dep.
artment can be persuaded to change
their route to go to Terra Alta, 50
that when we complete the two miles
from Crellin to Hutton the Stat
road system will be completed

LEWIS ENTERS RACE FOR
SEAT IN U. S. SENATE
Former Maryland Representative
Formally Announces Candidacy.

Former Representative David ].
Lewis Sunday announced his candi-
dacy for the Democratic nomination
for United States Senator. Mr.. Lewis
was the Democratic nominee in 1916,
and was defeated by Senator Joseph
|. France. At that time the Demo
cratic party in Baltimore was widely
split into factions, and Mr. Lewis suf-
fered in consequence.
1t has been known for some time
that he contemplated running again
feeling that he was entitled to fight
Senator France once more, and under
even conditions. Lately his friends
heard that he had made up his mind
to be candidate for the Democratic
nomination unless former Senator
John Walter Smith desired it. He
felt that Mr.. Smith was entitled to
the nomination, if he cared to return
to the Senate.
Mr.. Lewis and his friends under
stand now that Mr.. Smiths decision
not to be a candidate is irrevocable.
And with Mr.. Smith out of the field.
Mr.. Lewis has determined to run.
whether or not others enter. Reports
have been current that Governor
Richie might be a candidate, or that
the organization forces in Baltimore
city might bring out another, should
Mr. Richie decide to keep out of the
Senatorship fight and run for reel
ection.
Mr.. Lewis was asked whether he
had a formal statement to make in re-
gard to his candidacy, and replied:
"Not at this time, except that l am
Democrat, more confirmed by the
war and our subsequent history in the
teaching and philosophy of our Amer
lean democracy.
Mr.. Lewis has been a member Of the
United States Tariff Commission for
several years, having been appointed
by President Wilson, who greatly ad-
mired his record in Congress, cspec-
tally in the parcel post Legislation.
According to the former Presidents
intimate, he had Mr.. Lewis on the
original Cabinet slate for Postmaster
General
His appointment to the Tariff Com
mission followed closely his defeat for
Senator. For six years previously he
was the Representative from the Six
tn district. He was elected three
times consecutively and was the only
Democrat elected in the district in
decades.
