Tne First National Bank of Kitz-
millersville, in Garrett county, Md.,
opened its doors for business on Mon-
day, the 18th inst. The name of that
village is awful enough to keep bank
robbers out of the town, and it’s doubt-
ful if it won’t keep business away from
the bank.
A MAN with official itch who seeks
and accepts a Democratic nomination
while declaring himself a pink of Re-
publicanism, ought to be as closely
watched as the man who having been
caught in his neighbor’s hencoop after
midnight explains that he was only
looking for a place to sleep. Each is as
worthy of trust as the other. One is
hungry for office, and is willing to ride
any old crow-bait going the Harris-
burg way; the other is hungry for
chicken, and is willing to risk his repu-
tation and life for a plump pullet.
They are two of a kind—a pair, if you
please..—Somerset Standard.
GoveERrNOR JosePH W. FoLk, in ad-
dressing the retail merchants of Mis-
souri, at their convention, a few days
ago, spoke against the mail-order busi-
ness and favored advertising in the
town papers. He said in part: “We
are proud of our splendid cities, and
we want them to increase in wealth
and population, and we also want our
country towns to grow. We wish the
city merchants to build up, but we also
desire the country merchants to pros-
per. Ido not believe in the mail-order
citizen. If a place is good enough for
a man to live in and make his money
in, is is good enough for him to spend
his money. No merchant can succeed
without advertising in one way or
another. Patronize your town papers,
build them up, and they will build the
town up, and build up for you increas-
ed trade and greater opportunities.

Big Peach Crop.
William J. Vorhees, special solicitor
of the United States Express Co., from
New York City, has been looking into
the extent of the peach crop, in this lo-
cality,as a basis for their arrange-
ments to furnish cars. Mr. Voorhees
expressed the opinion that 400 carloads
from Romney would be a conservative
estimate, and stated that he would re-
port that estimate to his company.
Jos. Shingleton and others, who have
kept in touch with conditions here, es-
timate the probable shipment from this
place, for the season, at 500 carloads.
Campbell Pancake, who has been fur-
nishing baskets to the growers in this
community, has already sold and or-
dered enough baskets to make 400 car-
loads of peaches. It is thought by
some that the crop, if the people are
able to market it, may exceed, by far,
even the larger estimate.—Cumberland

ELECTRIC ROAD SURE.
Jennings Syndicate Secures Char-
ter and Road Will be Completed
at Earliest Possible Moment.
The Jennings syndicate last week se-
cured the charter which will enable
them to connect Meyersdale, Salisbury
and other towns with a system of elec-
tric railways. The first link of the
system to be built will be between
Meyersdale and Salisbury, and there is
now little or no doubt that electric cars
will be hauling passengers in the two
towns mentioned, before snow flies.
The old Pittsburg company that
partly graded a road between Salis-
bury and Meyersdale, several years
ago, and sought to dispose of a lot of
watered stock and complete the road
with gas and wind, did all in their
power to keep the Jennings people
from getting a charter. However, the
old company succeeded only in delay-
ing the new company, and now that
the charter is granted, we are inform-
ed by one of the leading men in the
new company that work is to begin
just as soon as the preliminary ar-
rangements can be made, and that the
road will be in operation at the earliest
possible moment.
The new company has the money,
the charter and the good will of the
people, and we feel safe in saying that
Salisbury and Meyersdale will have
street cars before many moons shall
wax and wane. Hip, hip, hurrah!
ONLY 82 YEARS OLD.
“I am only 82 years old and don’t ex-
pect even when I get to be real old to
feel that way as long as I can get
Electric Bitters,” says Mrs. E. H.
Brunson, of Dublin, Ga. Surely there's
nothing else keeps the old as young
and makes the weak as strong as this
grand tonic medicine. Dyspepsia, tor-
pid liver, inflamed kidneys or chronic
constipation are unknown after taking
Electric Bitters a reasonable time.

REFORM FAKIRS.
Political suits with no evidence to
sustain them, lifting the lid of the
State Treasury and uncovering nothing
but cash, making charges with no basis
of truth, for political effect only, assas-
sinating character and destroying rep-
utation—these are the moves of the
enemies of the Republican party. It
remains to be seen whether the great
body of Republican voters are going to
be deceived again this year.
The lid has been lifted and Mr. Berry
has receipted in full to his Republican
predecessor for the millions of dollars
turned over from a Republican admin-
istration. Philadelphia contractors
have been hauled into court but after
making all possible political capital out
of the charges, the suits have been
dropped on advice of eminent council
that the evidence was insufficient to
sustain the grave accusations.
We do not believe the average voter
is going to continue to swallow the
nauseating dose of slander and abuse
and vilification which are the output of
the so-calied reformers of Pennsyl-
vania. Reasonable men are not likely
to believe those who have failed to
make good in a former campaign.
It must be evident to any intelligent
person that the real animus of the
present attack upon the Republican
party is a desire to control for political
purposes the Republican organization.
It is admitted that the Republican
nominees are absolutely unassailable as
to character and ability, and that the
platform of the party is the best in
forty years; but notwithstanding these
admissions, men who call themselves
Republicans are pfeparing to defeat
the ticket and repudiate the platform,
accepting instead the Bryan declara-
tions of the Democrats and a ticket
made up of three unconverted Bryan-
ites and one rule-or-ruin Republican.
We shall be much surprised if there
is not a turn of the tide presently that
will utterly destroy the censorious and
self-seeking combination now masquer-
ading as the only real thing in the way
of reform:—Harrisburg Telegraph.
A SWEET BREATH.
A sweet breath adds to the joys of a
kiss. You wouldn’t want to kiss your
wife, mother or sweetheart with a bad
breath. You can’t have a sweet breath
without a healthy stomach. You can’t

fect digestion. There is only one rem-
edy that digests what you eat and
makes the breath as sweet as a rose—
and that remedy is KODOL FOR DYS-

ach, palpitation of the heart, and other
ailments arising from disorder of the
stomach and digestion. Take a little

BOWSER AND THE BUMBLEBEES.
Addison Man and His Team Meet
With Bad Aceident.
Addison, July 19.—A nest of bumble-
bees that became enraged started
trouble for William Bowser, of near
Addison, last Saturday morning, which
had serious results.
Bowser was mowing grass in the
meadow with his team. The mowing
machine and the horses passed over a
bumblebees’ nest. The bees resented
the disturbance of their home, and
alighted on the horses and man and be-
gan stinging. The team ran away, and
after going some distance pulled the
machine against a small tree in the
meadow. The cutter bar was hurled
forward and cut off both hind legs of
one of the horses, the members being
entirely severed from the body.
In the collision Bowser was fortun-
ately thrown back of the cutter bar,
but sustained the loss of four fingers,
He became entangled in the lines, and
this was his salvation, for he was
thrown to one side. Otherwise he
would have been in front of the cutter
bar. The bees followed the team more
than 100 rods, and were still stinging
the horses and Mr. Bowser when the
machine collided with the tree.
A TRAGIC FINISH.
A watchman’s neglect permitted a
leak in the great North Sea dyke, which
a child’s finger could have stopped, to
become a ruinous break, devastating an
entire province of Holland. In like
manner Kenneth McIver, of Vanceboro,
Me., permitted a little cold to go un-
noticed until a tragic finish was only
averted by Dr. King’s New Discovery.
He writes: “Three doctors gave me
up to die of lung inflammation, caused
by a neglected cold; but Dr. King’s
New Discovery saved my life.” Guar-
anteed best cough and cold cure, at E.
H. Miller’s drug store. 50c. and $1.00.

SWALLOW AND EM ERY.
Burgoyne "in Pittsburg Ga-
zette Times.
By Arthur G.
Cold water is a harmless thing,
You’d hardly think it fitted,
To give to human speech a sting
And breed retorts quick-witted.
And hence it causes wonderment
That from its use should follow
Such thrusts unkind, and truculent
As Emery gets from Swallow.
It is not strange at all to find
A gentleman addicted
To liquors strong and much inclined
To toping unrestricted
Emitting fiery calls for gore
Like Caesar or like Rollo;
But who'd expect a warlike roar
From water fiends like Swallow?
No doubt this is the reason why
The Wanamaker party
Relied on landing high and dry
The coy Prohibs. With hearty
Assurance of success in sight
They made their proffers hollow.
They never thought they’d have to fight
A paladin like Swallow.
And so when Berry threw aside
The temp’rance nomination,
He thought the way was open wide
For Emery’s exaltation.
“Here, take it, Lew,” he said and looked
Like Jove or smooth Apollo.
How could he know that he was booked
To get the gaff from Swallow?
Proceeding with the easy game
Lew Emery, brisk and merry,
Prepared without delay to claim
The place bequeathed to Berry.
“Methinks,” mused he, “these wat’ry
folk :
Are wondrous green and callow.”
But ah, just then the warcloud broke
And—Dbiff '—along came Swallow.
Then came the jabs and uppercuts
And kinder demonstrations.
In vain were Emery’s “ifs and buts,”
In vain his explanations.
And now, too late, alas, he knows,
That enemies who wallow
In rum are not the fiercest foes.
They don’t compare with Swallow.
