At the same time families that have come in

couldn't vote. They not the assessment list

registered voters.
Nor should one dismiss the situation where
last Saturday the number topic was the i'm
pending strike and not the question of school
addition.
In any event there fine turnout at the
polls, and decided vote of 381 to 122 which shows
confidence in schools Now let's think in terms of
long range school planning, and build for the future
instead of the year ahead The whole picture should

Bond Issue Defeated

Usually when bond issue is defeated at the
polls, there a number of disappointed people.
Failure of the bond issue ordinarily smashes dreams
for something, bigger and better.
We observed no such reaction this week. Ques-
ton last Saturday at the polls eight-room
addition to the district high school. The $160,000
bond issue failed for lack of 40 per cent turnout
The vote total was SOB with SOC needed.
At the time the 381 to 122 vote as
one-sided any bond election held in the district
to knowledge. People in the apparently
want better schools.
Which brings up the point that many of the 381
who voted in favor of the school addition
tually thinking that plans for the new building
were too conservative and premature, based
ditons. However parents of children, generally will
not vote mo" on better schools will newspaper
oppose improved schools.
Now that the bond issue for the addition is out
of the way, we hope school authorities give them
selves to long range planning, and think in terms
of entirely high school plant including a
new gym. Such structure will not be merited if
the enrolment continues at 260 or increases to 300
or so for one year.
Analysis of the Saturday vote was interesting
Outstanding feature the situation where school
election held at time when so many of the
,529 registered taxpayng voters had left the dist
riot The names of many of the men who helped
build Hungry Horse Dam were on the eligible voter
list, and now they hundreds of miles away
This was especially evident at Martin City
where Hungry Horse also votes. Their poll list of
sons Half of them longer live in the Flathead.
Result is that the 66 to "a vote favoring the bond
issue was a fine turnout.

Under spacious skies this beauty

Protected well from view.
Painted by One who wields the

With delicate but sure strokes.
Each stroke portrays the sunlight

Surrounded by sweet notes.
I found this once way off the main

I'll show it now to you.
Step out of the car, it isn't far,
The pines shelter this shrine.
The woods smell sweet, the moss

Lies a carpet of emerald green.
The stream water rolls and behind

Is hidden log foot bridge.
Now take my hand and youu un-

Why this beauty takes my breath.
For between the walls of these

Formed is granite of many hues.
When you gaze thru the crevice
In this paradise
And marvel at beauties galore,
Is there ever a doubt
AS to Whose work of art?
Then you will never question any

APear Has Heavy April Snow

APGAR-Such terrible weather
last week. Very discouraging. We
had billiards. and lots of snow
The snow kept piling up until there
was more than at any time this
winter. There was the usual high
platform of snow so that our dogs
could sit in the snow and look in
the schoolroom windows. We were
pretty angry with them during the
really cold weather. Lynne's dog
would stand on his hind legs and
knock down all the bird food from
the window ledges on to the
ground and then all the little dogs
would gather around and have a
party. We had to fasten the food
on nails high on the sides of the
windows.

Judge Issues
Ruling In Gas
Lease Case Here

A deed executed by a husband
in a property owned jointly with
his wife is not valid if she does
not sign the lease, Associate
Judge Morgan c. Harris ruled in
a gas field case affecting Garrett
county.
And after their divorce, the hus-
bands half in the property cannot
fall under the terms of the orig
inal lease as it was not valid to
begin with, Judge Harris ruled.
The case involved the property
in election district No. 8, and arose
when Columbian Carbon company
filed a suit in equity against Ed
ward G. Right, Maggie Right,
Evelyn Right, Pierce II. Warsaw
and Ray Right.
The bill of complaint alleges that
by deed dated July 5, 1916, Pierce
H. and Evelyn Right Warsaw ac-
quired as tenants by entireties a
tract of 1131a acres.
On February "a, 1858, Warsaw
signed a gas lease for five years
with Columbian Carbon company
or as long as there was drilling
on the tract.
The lease carried a provision
that if the lessor owned a less in
terest in the oil and gas in the
tract that the entire fee simple
estate, then the rentals and royal
ties should be paid to the lessor
only in proportion to which the
lessons interest was a part of the
whole fee.
On June %, 1858, the opinion
stated, the couple was divorced
and they shared the tract as ten
ants in common.
On December 20, 1858, Warsaw
and his divorced wife conveyed the
property to Edward G. Right
Then the undivided half interest of
the property was conveyed to Mrs.
Warsaw by Right. Sometime after
ward the opinion noted, an attempt
was made to lease the oil and gas
rights under the property to Ray

Governor McKeldin has called
upon citizens of Maryland to OBJ
serve the day, although unofficial
ly as yet, and is urging that the
General Assembly Of Maryland will
enact necessary legislation to make
the name of Veterans day official

Right.
The sole question raised by the
demurrer was whether the title
which Warsaw acquired upon the
granting of the absolute divorce
Injured to the benefit of the Co.
lumbar Carbon company. The
judge then ruled to sustain the
demurrer filed by the defendants.
Attorneys for the Rights and
Warsaws were Neil c. Fraley, Oak
land, and Walter c. Capper, Cum
berland. Representing the company
were E. r. Jones and Lewis R.
Jones, of Oakland.

The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1954-10-28

In the course of the campaign, now draw
ing to close, have endeovored to state clear
y my position on many of the issues vitolly Of
fecting the people of our County. 1t seems
appropriate now to sum up by restoting some
of them here again.
l. will work for the repeal of the Annual
Assessments Law, just passed by the last SEES
sion of our Legislature This law, if it is allowed
to stand would cost our taxpayers many
thousands of dollars, and much of the added
revenue derived from it would be eaten up in
its administration.
2 | believe that the truck weight law as
it now stands is unj ust TO our truck owners. The
law is making it necessary for our truckers to
sneak down our roads of nigh with their loaded
trucks in on effort to gain livelihood because
the weight limits on two uxle trucks will not
permit pay load of timber or coal to be
huuIed Necessary and honest endeovor should
never be made q crime will try to provide
for some increase in the weight limits, and
clarity the law so that the fine on the first
5000 pounds of overweight shall not exceed &c
per pound The law should be further amended
so that truck can haul the full amount that
the State has issued license for it to carry,
and discretionary powers should be restored
to our Trial Magistrates to permit them to
allow credit for extra weight placed upon the
truck by the formation Of freezing mud and
ice and snow.
B. If necessary, will sponsor law ou-
thorizng our County Commissioners TO enter
into agreements with the Federal Social Sc
curity Board, so that our county roads en-
pIoyees, now under q very expensive retire
ment system, can be transferred to social Sc
curty This will effect q savings of many
hundreds of dollars each year TO our tuxpuyers,
and it will save hundreds of dollars to our
county employees, and afford them more ode
quote protection thun the present County Re-
tirement System.
a. ! will cooperate with our new County
Commissioners in search for woys to make
our roads dollars reach further so that more
and better roads can be had from our county's
share of the gasoline tax.
5. will work for better schools, and will
cooperate in the construction of necessary new
school facilities.

ITO AU Dur. Citizens: $500

g. | believe that our greatest need is for
factory poyroIIs to make jobs for our citizens
and | shall do everything in my power to at
troot outside industries to the county AS on
did TO this, | will, if elected, provide IegsIo-
ton authorizing our County Commissioners to
grant exemptions from county taxes on plant
and equ pment to prospective employers OF
twenty-five men or more, for period of from
five to fen years. We need to do this to get
on competitive basis with other communities
where they ore also trying to attract outside
capital and industries.
T. | will work for sensible economy in our
State and County Governments. Nobody has
any strings on me and can, therefore, serve
all the people without fear or favor. With my
background as former, Iumbermon, and
trucker, and as on experienced Legislator, |
believe | am fairly we'll prepared to give sound
and safe representation to all our people. |
might add that most any man could think up
lot of lows that he would like to see passed,
but the sound and prudent man will think long
and hard before he will crowd the statute
books with another commandment that has to
be obeyed by every citizen.
8. Finally, ! believe in clean and honest
Government 1t is the only means by which
every citizen can rightfuIy share in its burdens
and benefits. The inevitable result of the other
kind of government is extravaganza, high taxes,
fovortism and graft through which q few
men gain great benefits at the expense Of all
the people. Every honest endeovor, from teach
ing school to cutting wood, can make better,
surer progress under sound laws. Under honest
policies more schools and roads can be built
for less money, children can be better edu-
Gated, respect for law and order can be in
creased
For lock of space, | cannot restote all Of
the issues that have been discussed during the
course of this campaign, but, if elected, sholl
endeuvor to carry out my pledges to our citi-
zens and hope to merit the continued conf
dence and support Of all.
Again respectfully ask for your influence
and support at the General Election on next
Tuesday, November 2.
