ARTHUR YOUNG HINEBAUGH

ARTHUR YOUNG HINEBAUGH
The announcement of the death of
Arthur Y. limbaugh, aged AZ years,
which occurred at the Western Mary
land Hospital, Cumberland, Monday
afternoon, came as a distinct shock to
his many friends in Oakland, although
it was generally known that his condi-
ton for several days preceding was
serious. He was admitted to the in
stitution on August 9th, suffering
from an affection Of the gall duct,
an operation being necessary to re-
lieve the trouble when pneumonia
developed, resulting in his death.
He was the youngest son of the late
William and Elizabeth limbaugh Of
Oakland, having been born in Acct
dent and came to Oakland with his
parents forty-three years ago.
He is survived by his widow, Mrs.
Gracia Bartlett limbaugh; a daugh-
ter, Helen limbaugh, and son Ed
ward limbaugh. Also by tour broth
ers, James O. limbaugh, Wade H..
Hinebaugh Thaddeus c. limbaugh
and DR.. Mahlon C. limbaugh, all of
Oakland, and by two sisters, Mrs. Eta
Boyer, Fairmont, w. Va, and Mrs.
John G. Robinson, of Gettysburg Pa.
Funeral services were conducted in
st. Marks Lutheran church, of which
he was member, by Rev. Charles A..
Shilke, assisted by Rev. Samuel E.
Wicker, a former pastor with inter
ment in St. Matthew's Episcopal
churchyard in Oakland. The pallbear-
ers were Lawrence Fraley, Lawrence
Dixon, J. w. Glotfelty, Carl Brown

Herd Improvement Association
Finds Value in Testing

Having completed the fourth
month of successful COW testing mem
bers of the Friendsville Herd I'M
provement association seem to realize
more and more the benefits of accu-
rate testing of each cows milk and
the keeping of records on the herd,
according to G. Emerson Bishoff, agri-
culture instructor.
By observing the record of the ten
highest cows in the association dur
ing July, the members may improve
production through better methods of
feeding and breeding.
The boys owning the cows highest
in production of butter fat for July
include Glenn N. Fike, Ernest Hauser
Karol Rush, Wade Umbel, and George
Coddington. Glenn Fike had the high
est average.

The World amdAll
FUTILITY
By Charles p. Driscoll

we waste much Of our lives in futile effort. II
ne could get some Of the obviously futile things csta-
llogued. We might be able 10 recognize them and steer
away from them as a mariner avoids shoal waters.
II is futile, Of course, TO argue with the boss. He
can win the argument at any point by retorttng,
You're firedi'
To argue with a woman Is also futile. After all.

iect az issue. In that case. anything YOU might say
1t is futile. as almost everybody knows, to argue
about religion. Religious beliefs are in a realm that
is only partly governed by reason. The conclusion
has been pre-jldged by the holder Of a religious
tenet. You can't change his belief. and he will resent
your trying to change it. The bloodiest wars and tie
cruelest murders have been i~nstigsted by arguments
over religious beliefs.
1t is also futile TO argue about politics. in the gen
orally accepted meaning Of the word politics in Amer
lea. When we speak Of arguing about politics, we
mean arguing about the personalities of leaders and
members Of the different political parties. We call
it arguing politics when we indulge in long and hot
discussions OF Andrew Mellon. tax refunds. Smiths
English. Harding's friends. and the whiskers of Mr..
Hughes. AS a matter Of fact. these things have no
bearing whatever upon the science Of politics. which
is a very interesting study and a pleasant thing TO
argue about. but these side issues pass for politics In
our country and time. Arguing about them is the
height OF futility.
It is futile to spend much time worrying about
peace treaties signed while bigger armies and navies
are a-building. It is futile to discuss the style OF
gown to be worn during the millennium while thieves
are trying to break through and steal our everyday
clothes.
SURPRISING crime by making criminals Of police
men is very far up toward the height OF futility.
Every once in a while some police department head
gets into the papers by the simple device Of announc-
ing that his cops are authorized to beat up thugs.
shoot to kill, treat EN- rough. and administer the
third degree to extort confessions. Such a police
head is himself a criminal. and is trying to make
criminals of all his cops. 1t is not the policemans
business to administer either punishment or free adj
vice. These prerogatives are reserved to the courts.
which are usually a little better equipped for such
work than the patrolman. In New York policemen
have started shooting at speeders. and already one
woman has been murdered by a lavless cop who fired
at the car in which she was riding too fast to suit
this outlaw.
Futiity: to try to learn the Russian language:
to try to understand Einstetn: to try TO make sense

Deal Harshly With Moody

That the lower house desires immediate action IN
concentrating the state prison system was indicated
TUESDAY when the Young Turner-Loy bill, proposing
concentration Of the penitentiary system on either
the Darlington or Ramsey farms, received a vote OF
10 to 50. Governor Moody on Monday appealed 70
the house 10 defer action pending an investigation OF
the proposed sites.
The hasty action Of the house may be ATTRIBUTED
to the fact that since the beginning OF the session II
has been spurred by the demands Of constituents that
the penitentiary system be concentrated; that the
prisoners he placed under more efficient guard ana
that the rrison system cease 70 he a public menace 70
those communities In which prison farms are located
due 70 the numerous escapes Of desperate criminals.
In reply 70 Governor Moodys request. house mem
hers replied there had been sufficient investigation
that the people Of Texas are practically unanimous
In demand concentration OF the system. and that no
logical reason existed for further delay. lnvestiee-
ton OF the proposed sites. they stated. might delay
concentration for two years or more.
While there may be grounds for the assertion That
the house took hasty action. 1t is obvious that re-
rardless OF what may be the outcome, conditions can
be made no worse than at present. The prison sys-
fem. with its convict farms widely scattered. Is a
menace to many communities. For the state TO per-
sist in maintaining a menace of this character IS an
infringement upon public rights.
The only remedy is to concentrate the system and
rlace Il under efficient guard. Those who argue that
n will prove an economic loss to the state have only
n look at the annual report TO satisfy themselves
that the prison farms. as now operated. are not only
q menace to the public but constitute a heavy burden
vnon state finances.

While this is drastic. It does not necessarily mean
that the little fry" win receive more than their Just
deserts. It gives the court the discretionary powers
necessary to ~iscriminate between the hardened
criminal, the professional bootlegger. and the casual
or slight violation. The present law places all In the
same category. and extends practically no discretion
airy powers to the court. the professional b~ootlegger
receiving the same sentence as the casual ~violator.
The proposal contained in the senate amendment
to make liquor law violations a deportable offense for
aliens should be extended to cover all law violations.
II aliens entering the United States lack respect for
our laws and constitute a continual source Of irrita-
ton mad expense to the law-abiding citizens, they
should be summarily deported.

With the vast majority Of Indians. the records Of
this office and our own observations while visiting

progress been made but that there is convincing

slant demonstration to others Of the benefits Of self
effort. and are providing the incentive to go and do
likewise. The power Of example is strong among the
Indians, and every instance Of individual success in
farming or stockraising forms n nucleus from which
an ever widening circle Of similar effort is growing.
The awakening of the Indians to the need for in
dividual effort on their own part. however, Is the
opening of the door of opportunity n the Indian

Alien Criminals

The senate amendment providing for deportation
of aliens convicted under the liquor laws. will prove
a. potent factor in aiding immigration officers to clear
the border of numerous undesirables. Under the
present law liquor violations do not constitute a de-
portable offense. and the harried immigration Off
cial. whose duty II is to protect the United States
against such undesirables. is compelled to fasten
other charges upon the offender before deportation
can be ordered.
It is interesting to note that approximately 20 per
rent OF those convicted on liquor charges in federal
ro,,rt in brownsville are aliens. who will be subject
IN deportation If the senate amendment is incorpor-
ated in the federal statutes. Many Of these are con-
firmed liquor runners or bootleggers. either operating
son their own" or for higher ups" Border officers
estimate that fully so per cent Of the crimes Of the
border country may be attributed to this element.
which. though comparatively small in number. are
believed to have effective organization.
Enactment of this amendment and the Jones SEN
ate bill. which gives the federal courts wider powers.
will aid materially in eliminating the liquor runners
and bootleggers from the border country. Under the
nresent law the ~violators are hailed before the court,
receive small fines for the first and second offences.
and are turned loose to prey upon society. They can
tuiddle their thumbs at the immigration officers and
DIV their traffic until they again are enmeshed In
the tolls of the law.
The Jones bill, which passed the senate Tuesday
by q vote OF IS to IS, gives the federal court power to
fine first offenders $4,000 or five years In prison.
