on Second Street Saturday
Evening.

Lindsey Gender, youngest son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Bernard l. Gender, of

escape with his life on Saturday ev-

section of Second street Mr.. Ray Por-

While MI. Porter saw the boy he was
powerless to stop his car and the

crushing the sled to pieces and knock
ing the breath fro mthe boy who did
not recover until after he had been
carried into the office of DR.. Darby
by MIR. Porter.

R. A. FISHER, ROAD HOUSE
OWNER, AGAIN ARRESTED
Taken In By Federal Enforce
ment Officers Late Last
Friday Night

Late last Friday night Prohibition
Enforcement officers Harvey, Haw-
kins and Bittinger, of Cumberland,
visited Oakland and after circulating
about town for few hours, left for
their headquarters in the Queen City.
On their way, however, the party
took occasion to stop at the road
house of R. A. Fisher, located on the
Oakland-Accident road at a point
six or eight miles north of town
where the road leading to the Con-
struction Corporations dam site turns
off when they placed Fisher under ar
rest on the charge of possessing and
selling liquor.
The officers had a warrant for the
road house. No one was there when
they arrived, but while they were
searching the place, after forcing an
entrance, Fisher returned. 1t is al
legged he had pint of red liquor in
his pocekt. In addition to this the
officers said they found a small guam
tity Of moonshine in the road house.
The officers placed Fisher under ar
rest and took him to Cumberland,
where he waived a hearing before U.
S. Commissioner Anderson and was
held under $1,000 bond for the dis
trict court.
Harvey stated that Fisher made
two sales to men who were working
for him.
Fisher was arrested two or three
weeks ago by Sheriff Guy Yutzy on
the charge of selling liquor and it is
said was indicted twice by the late
grand jury, on both of which charges
he will be tried this week.

This Lady Is Thankful Because Oak
lands Water Supply Problem Has
Seemingly Been Solved.

To the Editor of The Republican.
Just as l was leaving home, near
Thanksgiving time, l decided one of
the things had, as a citizen of Oak
land, to be specially thankful for was
the new abundant water supply. 1t
is at least fifteen years since we have
been trying to solve the question of
the water supply for the town, and
in spite of its being a season in which
there was not very much rain, this
was the first year that we have had
a real supply of water.
l believe in all things we should
give thanks and would suggest that a
little appreciation should be shown in
a public way through your paper.
Very sincerely yours,

It will be an example to the whole world and will be foundation for the establish ment of settled principles for the government of nations"
