Shepherdstown Register from Shepherdstown, West Virginia • 2

I $ltr rpTi Jtrgistn L. Snyder. Editor and Publisher, Shepherdstown, W. Va. Thursday, April 24, 1919 To live in the presence of great truths and eternal laws, that is what a man patient when the world i ignores him.

and calm and unspoiled when the world praises a BE PATRIOTIC! Just as we go to press this morning the Register is in receipt of the follow- ing despatch from former Governor NX'm. A. MacCorkle, of Charleston, chairman of the State Liberty Loan crmpaign. It speaks for itself: Only 13 per cent of the population of West Virginia subscribed to the Fourth Liberty Loan. This was a total of 162,000 out of a population of 000.

This is too low. In other words, more than 1,000.000 people gave no part of their substance to the greatest contest ever waged for human UDerty and the democracy of the world. It is not fair to those who were subscribers. It is up to us in this campaign to be fair to the 162,000 of the State who have contributed. The million people should come up.

This is not aimed to be offensive, but it is plain fairness that this vast majority of our people shall do their share. Will you give extensive publicity to the prop- osition that the million do their part? i Nothing but the most vigorous action will bring the desired result. THE boys are beijig brought back from Europe tolerably not fast enough. Red tape still binds and restricts rapid movement. I WE will probably know by next week i just what terms the Allies have im- 1 posed upon Germany.

It will probably be a-plenty, yet not enough. liberty bonds to the limit. dollar invested in them and laid by will be worth two on some of the rainy days that are bound to come sooner or later. AND now come the lumber people and say that lumber prices must be put up still higher! They say it is necessary to increase rates in order to make fair profits, but what they really mean is that greediness demands it. AFTER having visited the Penitentiary at Moundsville, Governor Cornwell express the belief that a new prison building is needed, for the reason that the present structures are antiquated and out of date.

This is-undoubtedly true. But if a new penitentiary i3 to be built let it be a small one, for when the country finally goes dry there will be such a decrease.in crime as to make a large prison un necessary. ALL is ont harmonious among the Republicans. A large and spirited wing of the party absolutely refuses to be satisfied with the out-of date sort of corrupt politics that is represented by the Penrose element, and will not submit to the methods that are so popular in Pennsylvania. We hope that the progressives may stand firm.

We are not strong for partisan politics any this period of the world's history there is great need for broad and progressive statesmanship, and Senator Penrose and his fellow reactionaries are a full generation behind the times. SUNDAY, May 4th, has been fixed as Liberty Loan Sunday, and every minister in this federal reserve district is requested to preach a sermon approprt ate to the occasion, wnne aunaay schools and Bible classes are asked also to observe the day. This is mixing religion and patriotism and loyalty in the proper sort of way, and it ouglu to result in great good. THE Germans say that they will not agree to the peace terms if they are too harsh. That's all right.

If they don't take their medicine we'll ram it down their throats. THE representatives of the German government will arrive at Versailles, in France, on April 28th, when the peace treaty prepared by the Allies will be presented to them. Germany has been instructed to give her agents power to sign the treaty, and it is made plain that this will be about their only function, for no argument over the terms will be allowed. It will be a case of sign it or leave it.alone, and if they leave it alone they will eventually have to submit to even harder terms. There is deai of curiosity to know just what the Allies have prepared in the way of peace conditions, but it is generally believed that Germany will be required to pay to the last farthing she can scrape up.

That her military wings shall be clipped for years to come is a foregone i THE reports from various sections of the country show that the Victory i Liberty Loan is starting off splendidly. The first day's reports show total subscriptions of more than Si 16,000.000, with great enthusiasm all over the i countrv. Scores of towns and cities have already exceeded their quotas, and every section is patriotically determined to do its full duty. It is the expressed desire of the government that these bonds shall be distributed as widely as possible, and so everybody who can possibly do so is urged to buy a it is only a fifty-dollar or a hundred-dollar bond. The payments are per cent on or before May 10th, another 10 per cent on and 20 per cent on August 12th, September 9th, October 7th and November 11th.

These bonds, which bear interest at the rate of 4J per cent, are an absolutely safe invest- and as they are free from all i taxes in amcvnt up to $30,000, they really pay in the neighborhood of 6 per cent. West Virginia's quota of the present issue is $23,625,000. We should re- 1 gard it not only as a patriotic duty to subscribe for the full amount, but we should take pride in once more going over the top. I in I To Buy Potomac Bridges. The most important inter-session oinmittec created by the West Virginia at its sessions recently adourncd was a joint committee of the wo houses, commoniy referred to as he Potomac River Bridge Committee.

his committee is composed of three nembcrs of the Senate and live inem trs of the Mouse of Delegates, as fol- i ows: On behalf of the B. Stewart, of Monongalia coun- Miiton Burr, of Jefferson county, ind George Harman of Mineral counyOn behalf of the House of Delegates Roy C. Grove, of Bcrkeey county; David E. Cuppett, of county; LeRoy Shaw, of Preston Milton Rouss, of Jefferson ounty; and J. S.

Kuykendall, of Hamp(tiire county. The duties of this committee are confer with a similar committee by the Legislature of Mary and, with a view to the purchase by he two States of all the bridges across ne Potomac river between the States. These are four in number: One at rlancock, one at Williamsport, one at shepherdstown and one at Harper's erry. The committee will confer with he corporate owners of these bridges tnd obtain the best possible purchase jrice therefor, and at the same time will be determined what proportion )f the cost of these bridges will be paid respectively by the State of Maryland tnd by the State of West Virginia. In rase no agreement can be reached with the owners of the bridges, the committee will have power to institute coniemnation proceedings.

The committee of the West Virginia Legislature organized by the elec lion of Senator Edgar B. Stewart as Chairman and M. J. Malamphy as clerk. Hagerstown, Maryland, was fixed upon js the initial place of meeting, and May 20 is the date of meeting.

It was Further decided that the joint conferences between the two committees looking to the term of purchase and settlement would be held at Washington. Senator George Louis Eppler, of Cumberland, is chairman of the committee created by the Maryland Legislature. Senator Stewart has been in with the Maryland committee for some days, and has his own committee ready to act. Within the past few days LeRoy Shaw, a member of the committee from Preston county, has died. The personnel of the Maryland committee is as follows: On the part of the Senate Senntnrc I Rnfsfnn Sfifler nf Bel Air; Walter J.

Mitchell, of La Plata; and George Louis Epplye, of Cumberland. On the part of the House of Delegates, Delegates Edward M. Tenney and Leon R. Yourtree, of Hagerstown; Harry R. RoDinson and John H.

Shearer, of Cumberland, and Edwin A. Weimar of Oakland. The Armenian Fund. Shepherdstown district is asked to make an Easter offering to the $30,000,000 Armenian Relief Fund. The allotment to the district is fixed at $700.

J. D. Aluldoon has been placed in charge of the fund by County Chairman Frank Harrison and W. P. Licklider is acting as treasurer for the district.

Captain Manasian made it very clear to those who heard him in the college auditorium last Friday that there is every reason why Christian America should come to the relief of his people. They withstood the shock of 180 millions of a Mohammedan horde which was making its way into Christian Europe. They contributed in no little way in the saving of Jerusalem to the Christian peoples. They are without food, clothing, shelter. They are not an organized nation and on this account have no credit in the financial world whereby the U.

S. government may lend them money, so are entirely dependent upon the great heart of the American public. Hence this fund of thirty millions of dollars. Without much effort nenrlv or nnife one-half of our quota has been placed in the hands of the treasurer by just a few individuals. Now the district is appealed to that all snare in this noble cause.

Saturday and Sunday of this week are the days for your contribution. and it is hoped that you will be ready to respond requested by some solicitor. If you should be missed in the haste, make sure that your contribution reaches the solicitors in your section or comes direct to the treasurer. The following are appointed to take care of their respective communities, and they are requested to come to a meeting of workers in Shepherd College on this Friday evening at 8 o'clock for conference.

Shepherdstown district has come to the mark loyally in every request during the war, whether it has been in men, women, money, liberty everything.

Let us maintain still the high standard and always hold in happv memory the 100 per cent record in the great world war activities. New Road To Be of Concrete. As was stated in the Register last week, the commissioners of Washing, ton county, have purchased the nine-mile stretch of turnpike between Boonsboro and Shepherdstown, paying the turnpike company $15,000 foi its rights and franchises. The tollgates will be removed the 1st of May. The Maryland State Road Commission then take charge of the road and is soon as preliminary matters can be arranged it will be Improved.

It is said that the commission has definitely iecided on a concrete road for the enare length, and that it will advertise for Sids as soon as plans and specificaions can be prepared. It is hoped to active work within ninety days. Our Maryland neighbors expect Jefferson county to take up the work of oad improvement oil this side of the iver and join with them in the plans link up their splendid State road system with the famous Valley We hope that our own couny commissioners will show reciprocal public spirit and progressiveless.

Still in France. I St. Denis de Piles, March 31, 1919. Dearest Dad arc st'll here in this quief little village and waiting for the order to move toward home 1 ire working with the show, the "Gloom Dispcllers," and we arc having lots of fun out of it. Today we aje going to leave on a tour that may up a week or ten days, and even longer, perhaps.

We are going first to a hospital area, and where from there we do not know. Going around with the show is sure a whole lot better than lying around with nothing to do, and it does help to pass the time away. There is absolutely nothing to tell you, for there is nothing happening and all we do is eat and sleep and give the show, and it is an easy life. The only hard part is riding in the five-ton truck that we travel in, but that is not so bad at that. One nice feature of the showis th.if we have all eotten new clothes, which were truly mighty welcome to me, for my clothes were beginning to be shabby.

When we exchange all we get is salvaged stuff, and to get hold of a brand new outfit was groat. I feel like I am all dolled up for once in the army. I drew about as good clothes as there are in the bunch and a good fit at that. I don't just why we are not coming home, but the concensus of opinion seems to be that until the final peace is signed we will not get away, for the outfits here are those of the Air Service that were at the front and have been doing good work up there. They were specially trained for that sort of work and it may be that they are holding for whatever may happen.

Affairs of government in all of the countries seem to be in a more or less chaotic condition, and the idea prevails that we are sort of sitting on a volcano that may break forth at any minute. However, we will be home some time or other, and I will let you know as soon as we land in the States. I really have no idea when that will be, but they surely won't keep us Jierc so very much longer. Aside from these few things, I have nothing further to tell you, and since it is time to start for Bordeaux I will stop. With best love to all, Lovingly, BILL.

It well for Isaac's cleverness that his is the first time in years that he las been caught napping, but the sitchcr that goes often to the well gets jroken at last. Deputy U. S. Marshal E. W.

Athey came to Shepherdstown fast Saturday night, armed with a warrant that had been sworn out lor Isaac's irest on the charge of bringing liquor into the State contiary to the statute made and provided. He went to the station to watch the train due here at 1.13 a. with the expectation that his victim would disembark with a cargo Trom Greencastle. He was not on the train, however, for he had come home from Pennsylvania with some kindred spirits in an automobile, and when they let him out of the car he was so much overcome with the Greencastle liquor that he was unable to carry the load within, much less that which he had in a suit-case. Being tired and drowsy, he sank down on the steps at the Rumsey Hotel, and when Marshal Athey came up street he found him there more or lex comatose.

He shook him, and a bottle dropped from one of his pockets. Investigation revealed seven quarts of whiskey in his suit-case, and Marshal Athey thereupon took him in custody, and calling up Sergeant Shipley, put him in the town lock-up. Sunday he took him to the Martinsburg jail. Monday Isaac had a hearing before U. S.

Commiscinnpr A Dnu'ns in Martinsburc. He plead guilty and was held for the action of Judge Dayton's court in Wheeling at the coming term. There is a good deal of annoyance in town over the abduction of Isaac. That seven quarts of liquor was badly needed to assuage week-end thirsts, and its failure to reach its destination was a keen disappointment; but far worse is the reflection that it will be hard io find a good, reliable messenger for future crands of a similar character, and the prospects pre so gloomy that it may be that bail will have to be raised for him. Besides, who is to do our whitewashing and kalsomining and similar odd jobs? Truly, it is a calamity that right here at the beginning of the house-cleaning season our most capable and industrious helper has been placed in durance vile.

And think of the fresh young mint, now so luscious and tender, all going to waste' Notes of the Churches.

The Advocate says that the work of surveying the proposed new power line of the Northern Virginia Power Comnantr frnm itc nltinf nn thp through Charles Town to Martinsburg has been completed. The old line followed the public roads in a great measure, and was very crooked. It is proposed to make the new line as straight as it is possible to make it. In transmitting electric current there is economy in straight lines not only in saving wire and poles, but in conservation of current as well. From the power-house the proposed new line takes a direct route through the lands of the Tyler Orchard Company, John Porterfield, Mrs.

C. W. Boyd, Charles H. Moore, J. H.

Dutterer, formerly the Dalgarn farm, Mrs. Mary Bates, the Washington Boom, the Hunter heirs, to the entrance to the Charles Town horse show grounds. From the horse show land it runs north on Preston street to the Norfolk and Western Railway, and follows the railroad right of way, though on the lands of adjacent property owners, to the railroad coaling station near anenanaoan junction. Leaving the railroad at that point, it runs direct to Bardane through the farms of John Aglionby, John D. McGarry, the Moore heirs and Milton Burr.

The county road is followed from Bardane to the Shepherdstown and Middleway turnpike south of Kearneysville, where another cross-country run is made in the survey. Going through the farms of Widmyer, Campbell. Gettendanner, Lemaster and VanMeter, the new line crosses the farms of Brown Morrow and John Bartigis, passing over the Opequon from the farm of the last named owner. A direct line follows fromthecreekcrossing to the quarries of the Kelly Island Stone Company south of Martinsburg, A'here it will connect with the wires ilready leading into that city.
