Maryland Pig Crop
Report Of June 1, 1898

A Maryland 1888 spring pig crop
of 149, 900 head was saved from "a
900 sows, according to the June l Pig
;. CD Report of the Maryland Crop
reporting Service. The pig crop is .
per cent larger than that of 1887 but
,he number of sows narrowing is only
4 per cent larger. The 1888 spring pig
crop is the largest in the Is years
Of record. The report is based uporl
information obtained from large
number of Maryland farmers in CO.
operation with the Post Office Depart
inent through the postmasters an
rural carriers.
An average of 6.2 pigs were saved
per litter. This compares with SO in
1887 and 81 in the spring of 1886.
About 10 per cent of the sows far
rowed during the favorable weather
in February, March and April.
If present intentions Of breeders
are realized the number of sows far
rowing in the fall Of 1888 will be
about $4,000 head. This would be an
increase of 9 per cent over the 23,OOv
which narrowed last fall and the larg-
est number since 1924 when records
we're started.

SHALL WILLARD TYDINGS be
sacrificed because he is allegedly a
wealthy man with bank roll sup
port. Let US turn to the records: The
World War Service Records, which
cannot be disputed state:
Willard Evelyn Tydings, born and
raised around Havre de Grace, went
overseas June Is, 1918, and stayed in
the middle of the fighting until after
the Armistice. He was awarded dis
tinguished service medal for the fol-
lowing citations while commanding
the -111th Machine Gun Battalion, 29th
Division, during the Mouse Argone
operations, north of Verdun, Oct. 8 to
80, 1918, he distinguished himself by
his energy, fearlessness, and high
qualifications for the gravely respon-
sible duties devoIving upon MIN. The
exceptionally effective use made by
him of the weapons at his command
rendered an advance against formid-
able hostile field works. His constant
personal reconnaissance of frontline
positions of the Infantry made pos
sible an effective disposal of machine
guns and artillery in the support Of
the efforts of the Infantry to advance
and contributed in a large measure
to the success of the brigade which
his command was supporting"
18th Division Citation For Calamity
In Action
Displayed remarkable courage and
devotion to duty October 1918 in the
fighting North of Verdun, when he,
by his GOODNESS under fire and utter
disregard of personal danger, was an
inspiration to his men and when on
one occasion he made reconnais-
sance of the front line of the brigade
under intense fire and secured valu-
able information for the brigade COM

CONGRESSMAN LEWIS charges
Senator Tydings with an alliance with
Republican Tories. The dictionary de-
fines a Tory as follows: "Toruidhe"
from the old Gaelic, meaning "rob-
ber". Used in the 18th century to de-
scribe the evicted Irish who took to
agrarian outrages and highway rob-
berry. In English politics the word
meant zone who sought to maintain
protection of the Crown. In America,
of course the term TORY denoted
those who favored King George and
Great Britain against the Colonies.
The word has degenerated to the COM
mon "die-hard".

Robert Peter Called "Fraidy-Cat,

Eugene B. Casey, leader of the In

party which met at Rockville Tuesday
night and proclaimed it's rivalry with
the organization forces led by Robert
Peter, is being threatened with custer
proceedings from his post as presi-
dent of the United States Democratic
Clubs of Montgomery County on the
charge that he violated rules of the
club in leading a primary fight.
At the same time Mrs. Marguerite
Fischer, president of the Democratic
Women's Clubs, was assailed for her
tactics in supporting the new casey
movement" and it is reported that she
will be strenuously opposed by a
strong faction in the feminine Demo-
cratic ranks.
Tuesday night Rockville was the
scene of large and vigorous protest
meeting. Robert Peter, leader of the
organization forces was particularly
singled out for attack and his "intes-
final fortitude" was questioned by
several speakers.
The theme of the meeting was mo
bartering or sale of the Democratic
party. Mr.. Casey, who, incidentally,
has been a citizen of the county for
the brief span of six years, hardened
back to his Dissemination with the
Democratic organization and brought
out his intimate connection with the

Mr.. Eugene B. Casey,
Gaithersburg, Md.
Dear Mr.. Casey:

Dear Mr.. Casey:
received your telephone call
yesterday, informing me that you de-
sire to withdraw from the Democratic
Organization Ticket, for the Office of
a member of the Democratic State
Central Committee, and, of curse, il
this be your pleasure, it is hereby ac-
cepted.
1t was no surprise, as it has been
generally known for some time that
your sympathies have been elsewhere.
1t has also been generally known and
discussed that you have been keenly
disappointed since my election as
Chairman of the Democratic Organi-
cation Committees by County Con-
gress consisting Of approximately
five hundred Democrats from every
section or fhg~ eUua1U feeling that.
you, yourself, would like to take over
the leadership Of our party in this
County. My understanding is that you
are thirty-two years of age, and have
resided in the County about six years,
and it is not unreasonable to conclude
that the Democrats of this County de-
sire little older and more expert
enced leadership than you now
possess.
] notice in the press that you Sc
verely criticized the harmony move
that has been made in order to try to
present united Democratic Party at
the coming election, and it appears
that you foresee in it possibility Of
trying to affectuate yourself as the
leader of the Democratic party. in
this County. The man against whom
you now express opposition was sup
ported by you in the last primary
election against David j. Lewis,
whom now understand you are sup
porting.
l also notice that you always, in
press and otherwise, refer to your
self as President Of the Young Mems
Democratic Clubs Of this County.
Your constitution, adopted by the
young men themselves, prohibits your
participation in the primary, and it
is apparent to the most casual OBJ
server that the primary has not az
yet been held. The purpose Of the
provision being to promote harmony
and strengthen the Democratic Party
In the general election. My predeces-
sors, and myself, have always, and
intend in the future to cooperate in
every way with the Young Mems
Democratic Clubs and the Women's
Democratic Clubs of this County.
The recent harmony movement was
in no way deal, but was an agree
ment reached by Representatives Of
the two factions, promoting feeling
Of harmony for our Party. Those who
oppose it can certainly not have the
interest Of the Party at heart, but
must have some personal ambition
that they feel would be hurt by q
united front in the Democratic ranks.
They who care to follow your
leadership in place of mine will, Of
course, make the choice themselves,
but I intend to promote at every OPP
.portunity, any movement that has as
its object, getting the Democratic
Party together in Montgomery
County, without any feeling of hatred
on my part towards them who have
not seen their way clear to support
cur Party in the past.
Very truly yours, Robert Peter.
Chairman Of the Democratic Or
ganization Committees for Montgom-
cry County.

cult to check the ants and the or
ganization supporters. Suffice it to
say that it was one of the largest
political gatherings ever witnessed by
Rockville people.
Robert Peter, answering Mr..
Casey's challenge as to his sincerity
in promoting a Democratic move
ment, issued the following statement,
released to newspapers prior to the
Casey caucus Tuesday night:

IN A STRONG statement he broke
political precedent by advocating a
specific tax, voicing the belief that
the voters were entitled to know just
where he stood on this fundamental
issue. At the same time he advocated
the repeal of the present taxes on ad-

and cosmetics and on securities.

Stocks ran up fractions to more
than a point today to the best
levels in 10 months. Trading was
slightly more active, but turnover
was restricted by the absence of
many traders for weekend vaca-

The advance was attributed to
continued favorable business news,

considered a signal for resumption
of the rise.
Bonds were higher. Cotton fut.
