Writer to Press Asks for Teacher
For Dry Run School

W. E. burst, of the Swanton COM
munity, writing to the press, suggests
teacher for the Dry Run school. The
letter follows:
"In reply to Mr.. Rathbun's state
ment in the Cumberland Daily News
of September 26, blaming Garrett
county politicians for influencing the
pupils of the closed schools of Garrett
county to strike, 1 desire to state that
it is absolutely not the case. AT least,
it is not the case Of the pupils of the
Dry Run school community.
81 know 1 am presenting the senti-
ments of this entire community when
1 say that the project of transport
ing the pupils since 1881 away from
their own school has been very unsatis-
factory.
every winter since they have tried
to transport the pupils they have
missed at least month Of school, and
last winter they were out of school
from the time school closed for the
Christmas holidays until the twelfth
of March.
"Now we think we have had a great
deal of patience in this matter and
we are only trying to get school au-
thorities to realize they have not been
able to transfer the pupils of Dry Run
school successfully.
$50 the only solution we can see to
this problem is for US to have teacher
so these pupils can go to school every
day as the law requires them to do"

IL PERSONS INDICTED IN
BIRD DEGREE DEATH IN PA
Frank C. Monaghan Died During
Questioning of Police Stabbing

The district attorney, coroner and
ten others, including two Pennsylva-
MIA State troopers, were arrested on
grand jury indictments holding them
responsible for the death of Hotelman
Frank c. Monaghan, of Uniontown,
by "third degree" torture, CT with help
ing those responsible to escape arrest.
Monaghan, who was we'll known in
this county, died September IL. The
jury said it found that seven persons
were present in the Bertillon room of
the court house at Uniontown at the
time Monaghan was "feloniously as
saulted and killed" while being ques-
toned about the stabbing of County
Detective John C. Wall.
James A. Reilly, district attorney,
and Detective Wall stopped Monaghan
on the Cinnellsville- Uniontown high
way September II. They said he was
driving while under the influence of
liquor. Wall was tabled while at
tempting to drive Monaghan to the
city. Police arrested Monaghan and
Florence Dean, IS, who was riding
with him and turned them over to
Reilly. Monaghan died during the SUBJ
sequent questioning.
The coroner assigned heart disease,
superinducted by alcoholism, as the
cause of death. Later, after an au-
topsy, murder charges were filed.
Monaghan had real estate dealings
in Garrett county and was in Oakland
the day prior to his arrest.

here with the bride and groom were

And here's a queer one:
Voters from the state of Washing

Marion A. Zioncheck is likely to carry
the Chinook commonwealth any way
he boosts for.
ZiOncheck, when he first came to
Washington in 1888 as a Democrat,
came with a fine reputation. He had,
it was recognized on all hands, done
a wonderful work in organizing Seat
ties unemployed. l interviewed him
soon after his arrival here. He mani
testify was fine young legislator.

so too. He can get them to attend his
mass meetings at Is cents per head
His version is that he inadvertent-

but it was only temporary; that the
administration, irritated by his ram
page and perhaps by his intrinsic red
ness, utilized the rampage to put him
