Quite a spirited contest is raging as 10

The fight seems to be between the
friends of Senator Hamilton OF llaSers-
town. Hon. James Carroll Of Baltimore,
and Gov. Groome. Primary meetings
have been held in different counties OF
the State, in order to arrive at the sense
of the people, and it seems that Senator
Hamilton has the inside track. The

STAY WHERE YOU acre.

One of the greatest drawbacks to
prosperity is the FESTIVE, rowing, and
unsettled spirit Of the people. Each
one imagines that there is an FL
Dorado somewhere, or that some
section is more prosperous than his
own, and that he. must get to 1t be-
fore ho can accomplish anything
The idea unsettles him, and if he
does not ':pull up" and migrate at
once, he is forever thinking about it,
and negleets TO improve his present
farm and home. The delusion has
been wide spread since the war, and
much individual disaster has been
the result. The curse of Reuben
: h, ms to rest upon the people.
Yt is a~great mistake, Content,
mentlis the great secret of life. Old
Horace struck the right key when
he said:-'Happiness depends not upor
Mace nor climate, but upon The state OF
ones mind. Rolling stones gather no
moss, and the experiment OF selling out
and moving, in the hope of lettering
the condition, often ends in bitter dis
appointment and irretrieyable loss.
Better stay where you are. lfyOu
are in a good community, and your
lands have bottom, drive down your
pegs and acknowledgements that there's
more Ill the man than the land, as Old
Jones said. on returning from Texas,
after terrible failure, to the worn out
homestead h"o>had sold, and found 1t
blooming, like gal Ion. Right up the
old dwelling, renew the out buildings,
nalir.gs fences, end barus; spend few
,,.danrs in white paint, and give the
Artmises an airof cheeffulness. Guilt
vs$easssrsfo found, and masss it richer
every. year. Make plenty to eat anu
somcato sell, and let your crop be clear
profit. Plant fruit trees, have your rye
oats, barley, wheat and clover patches;
fine horses, fat COWS, and rich butter
Give your wives and daughters flower
gardens, and assist them in collecting a
good assortment of roots and cuttings
Do these simple things, and, our WORD
for j, your houses will take new hold
upon your affections, and instead Of
/rickety, dilapidated establishments ano
y solemn, hungry-loking countenaIces SC
common in our country, we Will hnc
comfortable and inviting homes, where
all is love, contentment and happiness
It will be like Colchian enchantres'
infusing new justice into the veins TO-
the prolonga,ion of life and youth
Try it. Turn over new leat ahC
begin anew. Fear God and love YOU
ncishbors, your wives, and your eh'l
dren, and don't try to get rich IN ONT
year.

The practice of top dressing pasture
lands is one which we have often seen
recommended in agricultural papers, bat
Mr.. Turner is tue only one whom We
have seen applying it. Everything
about the farm looked thrifty, clean and
in good order. and we could see, at a

The boys grouped on the steps Of the

windows. The photographer leveled his
camera from the opposite side of the

their hands, gazed for a few seconds at
the camera and the deed was done. A
number Of leading citizens stood around
the group, and they also came within the

Captain Lewis intends sending a copy
