WHEN RADICALS RULE

Last night Nicola Sacco and Bar
tolomeo VanZetti, two radicals who
We're sentenced to be executed for
murder, were again granted re-
prieve of twelve days by Governor
Alvan T. Fuller, of Massachusetts. 1t
is impossible to describe the exact
feelings manifest among real Ameri-
cans when the news Of the action be-
came known.
In the opinion of The Republican,
these two men were guilty, and should
have been executed, regardless of all
the radicals in the world. When it
comes to a place where threatenings
of bomb throwing, and violence can
sway the mind of the courts of JUS
tice, then the American people had
better descend from the government
and let the anarchists take charge.
If these two men are not executed,
and if every radical who stirs up
trouble is not deported, then Heaven
help America. She will have let the
radicals rule, and they, knowing what
they did in this instance, will only be
melted to worse things. They must
die now in order that American gov
eminent can survive.

GOOD FOR GOODS SAKE

Three fourths of the societies and
people who do supposedly good work
for a community are not bit lax in
letting the rest of the world know how
good they are, and the usual result
is gross exaggeration. The other
one-fourth does good and doesn't care
whether people hear about it or not.
They do good because they do, and
for no other reason.
Under the last classification comes
the Oakland Civic club, whose men,
bers have since May %, when the first
Orthopedic clinic was held in Oakland,
seen to it that seven children have
been sent to the hospital in Balti-
more, with the possibility that there
defects might be entirely cured. The
idea of the Civic club at the present
time is to get fund so that children
may be sent to the hospital regard
less of whether the parents of the
crippled child have the money or not,
and for this reason, there is to be a
picture at the Maryland Theatre on
August Is and 16 to aid this fund,
and it should be given everyone
whole-hearted support.
But they have gone even further.
The society is looking far into the
future when they hope to be able to
see that all the crippled children are
given a chance to be cured of their
defects, and they are endeavoring to
organize an orthopedic society which
will eventually cure them, if possible,
or at least teach them how to get
along in spite of their coalition.
This will be the outcome of meet
ing on Friday, August 26, in the High
school when Miss Mary E. Church, of
Johns Hopkins hospital will speak on
orthopedic work. The Civic club is
starting something which is going to
be beneficial to the community, and
everybody should get behind them.
1t is for the good of others.

OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

Thirty-eight business men were in
terviewed yesterday with respect to
having an active part in a business
mems day at the Garrett County Fair,
and everyone was enthusiastic about
the idea, and promised to decorate and
to furnish something for the parade
either a float or something to repre-
sent them.
1t is reasonable to assume from this
that when the rest of the business
houses are interviewed, the result will
be the same. A condition like this
means only one thing-that there is
going to be cooperation, and cooper
alton means success in any undertake
ing, especially where communities are
concerned.
1t is such spirit as this that will
work wonders. All of which means
that the first day of the Fair should be
highly successful from every point of
view. When all business men are
of the same idea and opinion, that is
the time when things can be accom-
plished. More power to them.

Bull Associations Aid Herd
improvement

There are opportunities for the eX-
pansion of bull associations in Mary
land and many possibilities for herd
Improvement among dairymen who
are willing to cooperate in the pur-
chase of outstanding purebred dairy
sires, say dairy specialists at the
University of Maryland.
The idea of the bull association, it
is explained, is to breed better pro-
ducing dairy cows through the CO.
operative ownership, use and syste-
matte exchange of prepotent purebred
dairy bulls of high producing ances-
try.
A bull association usually consists
of a number of blocks or units, each
composed of number of dairymen.
The members of each block or unit
cooperate in the purchase of pure
bred bull whose ancestry indicates
ability to transmit high milk produc-
ton to his offspring. The bull is used
in all the herds of the unit for a
period of a year and is then trans
ferred to one of the other units of the
association.
The advantages of the association
over individual ownership are appar-
ent. In the first place, dairymen
with herds too small to permit the
ownership of outstanding sires are
able to participate in the joint owner
ship of an association bull. In the
second place, several farmers pool
ing their funds should be able to Sc
cure sire of better quality than one
individual could afford to purchase
alone. And in the third place a sire
of good quality may be maintained in
bull association for sufficient num-
Der of years to permit just estimate
of his worth.
The last factor is particularly i'm
portant, it is asserted. The only sure
way to judg the merits of dairy
sire is to know the records of his
daughters. Frequently such records
are not available until after the sire
has been sold when it is too late to
profit by the discovery of outstanding
merit.
