Swatchnan what of the II ght -

Every man in this broad land extending from
the north TO the south, and from the cas-: to tie
west. is Waterman Of our coun,ry's interests
and prosperity. A political storm has Tor the
past six months been raging with groa. fury
throughout The Inion-tho foul winds Of locofoco-
ism have been bowling, filled with the screams Of
agogues-!he bases: and most black hearted
ISLANDERS have been poured out in torrents Of
rain upon the wing party by the scullion press of
their opponents, and the waves Of faIsehood and
infamv have been loaded and thrown with the
storms fury against the noble leader, the proud
bulwark Of our coIntry's hopcs-Henry Clay.
ne winds sill blow-te rain still fails, and the
waves have not assuaged their rolling. But the
Wing party unscathcd and unframed stands up
proud and erect, with the bright FURNISHED arms
of homes: integrity and patriotism undmej,
bearing aIoft the star spangcd banner .'without

The dark cloud which has overshadoWed the

that Congress may pass, making appropriations on
tho National road
This resolution offered by Perkins, and
the substance of it is that Perkins says Kennedy
told him that Brown says that the law partner of
Polk told him. that Polk ''WlLL approve oil bills

friends Of Mr.. Polk to look back TO some of his
votes upon this subject In tho House Journal #
1928 g. 90, page 40, January 9th, 1929. it will
be found tia. bill had passed through its three
several readings, authorizing the occupation of
Oregon by the United States, and upon the ques-
ton Of engrossing said bill, James X. Polk, voted
NAY, and the bill was defeated. But the locos
have suddenly become desperately enamorcd
with Oregon and Texas. and are endeayorlng TO
make political capital upon the questions OF oc-
cnpation md annexation. They nrc however un-
fortunate in their attempt to make Mr. Polk the
hero of their party the Oregon question. lie
does we'll, and answers their purpose admirably
on Tcxas-he is a Texas man. and his adhesion
to the unhoIy scheme of annexation IS tho only
thing that placed him in the station he oc-
cupies as a candidate for the presidency.
PIPE LAYlSG.-The loco press is loud IN cLarg-
ing tho Wings with bringing in voters from other
States to the Wing ticket. Thoir object Is
10 divert public attention from themselves. whilst
they arc guilty Of the infamous conduct they i'm
puto to the Wings. Who ever hoard respect
ablo man charge the Wings with 'pipe-lnying'
No one. But as an evidence that the ocos are
guilty Of il, refer to the late election for Mayor
in tho city Of Baltimore. At the recent state
election the ocos had ma jorlty in that city OF
1922, and now, three weeks afterwards, they
have elected their Mayor by 513 votes only! 1t
will be Observed that the vote falls off 7l6-
that the Wing vote has increased two votes, and
that the locos nave los, 709--all af which, there
is no doubt, were illegal votes! Seven hundred
AMI twenty Of their voters HAVE GONE HOME!
The same game will doubtless be attempted in
this STATE, and we ask tho Wings Of this county
and District to guard tho polls. We wish all
men who are entitled by law 70 4 vote, to exercise
that right; but no one who is not by law voter
should be allowed 10 do so.

AN AWKWARD MISTAKE.

A mistake of rather an awkward dis
crlptlon occurred few evenings ago to a
youthful couple of lovers, residing not
far from Chelmsford.
The unfortunate swain had incurred the
dIspleasure of Lis mistress father, who
forbade him to enter The house, and laid
strict injunction on his daughter not to
pass the threshold without leave. This
she obeyed to the letter but hit upon all
expedlent to crafty her lover also, by
breaking square of glass in the pantry
window, through which many.
"A long, long kiss-a kiss of youth and
love- had been given. Thee times hal
the square been replaced, and four times
had 1t been broken. Miss, atlributing it
to the cats, her father concealed himself
IN the place, in order to watch about 10
O'Clock, the lover approached with slow
and cautions steps, which the master
nearing, put his lace TO the aperture to as
certain who was coming at tina. sunhalow-
ed honr,' and the swain, installing il for
his souls sottest treasurer saluted it with
the hearts token.'.-rhe whiskered face
made him start. BY heavens p thought
