Corn with us has come up badly this season.
The long dreaded cut-worm has certainly been
healthy and industrious, treating corn, beans,
peas, tomatoes and potatoes all alike.
The Colorado potato beetle is doing its full
duty this spring. Some of our potato farmers
are feeding them Paris green, the surest of all
remedies.
The grain crop of this section is very fine
and promises bountiful harvest. According
to the number of self binding machines that
are being introduced in our vicinity, a man
will not have to walk three miles to see the
curiosity this harvest; neither will it do for a
man to sit on the fence to wait for the offer of
$3.50 or $500 for binding, thinking the
farmer will have to come to his terms.
In our items some time since we spoke of
Mrs. Milton Painter sailing for Europe to join
her daughters, who had spent some months
there for the benefit of Miss Evelyn's health.

The Old Union Church = The Boys O
Half a Century AgO-Rey. Lorenzo
Dow and His Texts.

At the Union Church, in Westminster GEM
etery, now used as a sort OF ~ tool house,
there are many interesting things to be OBJ
served. The internal arrangements are novel
in this day, and the building is relic of the
past 1t has the old style side galleries, and
the high pulpit. The fathers, grandfathers,
and great grand fathers of the present gener-
alton used to worship there, and contributed
their weekly mite in the silken purse that was
attached to long handle and passed around.
The men used to sit upon one side, and the
women on the other, and the gallery on
the east side was set apart for Colored people.
The boys in years gone by were much like the
boys of the present age. All over the walls
and pillars are the names of the boys half
century ago. written there by themselves dur
ing the tedium of the long sermons they
could not comprehend. Many of those who
inscribed their names on the walls of this old
building have long since passed to their final
reward. Others are scattered in various parts
of the country, and others are now gray haired
citizens of this city. Mingled with these
names are the names of many of the boys of
to-day, and even visitors to the old church
have written their names, addresses and date
of writing on the once sacred walls.
Ministers ofvarious denominations preached
in the old edifce. In September, 1880, nearly
itinerant preacher of great celebrity, preached
eleven sermons there, and one of his most
attentive listeners was the late Mr.. William
Grouse, father of Mr.. Ira E. Grouse. Mr..
Grouse always occupied the same seat, which
was near the pulpit, on the west side, behind
one of the pillars. On the pillar he penciled
Mr.. BOWS texts, only few of which are now
legible. One was 18th verse, LIST chapter of
John; another 18th verse, 10Th chapter of
John; another 10th verse, 18th chapter of
Matthew; another 1th chapter, 4th verse of
John.
Mr.. Ira Crouse's mother recently told him
of Mr.. BOWS visit here, of his sermons, and
of his fathers writing down the texts. In
going to the church few days since, and to
the pillar where his father sat, he saw the
texts just where his father had written them
more than half century ago.
The old church is going to ruin day by day.
This should not be permitted. The walls are
good, and it would not require very much
outlay to restore the building. A building is
needed in the cemetery, and this one is in
just the right location, being near the centre,
and upon the highest ground. The church is
the oldest in Westminster, and one of the
oldest buildings in the city, having been be-
gun about the year 1900 and completed sew
eral years after, in 1911. Mr.. Nicholas Shaet-
fer was the builder

The One Predominant Issue of 1884
From the New York SIM Of ThmSddy:

From the Ner York Sun Of Thmsddy:
The worst feature of the civil service sham
is that in the name of reform it seeks to per-
petuate the corrupt system, which long posses
sion of power has riveted upon every branch
of the Government The creatures of Secor
Robson, of Belknap, of Babcock, of Lam
dauet Williams, of Delano, of Shepherd, and
of all the Rings that fourished under Grant
are now holding places of trust in the depart
ments.
They possess the knowledge of important
financial, diplomatic, and political secrets :
they are the private agents of great corpora
tons and of spectators in Wall street; they
hold the keys, or duplicates of them, to the
great safes and vaults of the Government;
they know the side paths to the Treasury and
they can cater for the tastes and the vices of
superiors.
No honest Administration can hope to sue
coed with such agents manipulating the bust
ness of the country and subordinating it to
personal interests. The Star route villainy,
and other villainies known and unknown, are
but the outgrowth of IL vicious system which
should be extrpated, not preserved.
Judge Folger went to Washington, honestly
determined to reform the notorious and
fragrant abuses in the Treasury. He had the
results of an investigation to enlghten him.
He was warned against some of his official
surroundings. He knew the dangers that
surrounded him, and he confronted them
boldly. But he soon understood that every
effort he might make at reformation must be
futile. He must carry on his department
with the dishonest men he found there or not
carry it on at all Now he stands before the
country ostensibly a victim of the wiles of the
public enemy and of his own weakness, while
in reality his case affords the sad and unde-
niable evidence that reform as impossible so
long as the Republicans are alloured to remain
an poorer.
There can be no substantial improvement
until the Republican machine which has run
the Government for twenty-five years, in war
and in peace, shall be overthrown and cast
out. To that supreme object every effort of
patriotism ought to be directed. All other
questions and all other issues are of no i'm
portance besides it. Candidates count for
nothing compared with this one great need of
the country. The man most sure to win the
victory should be taken without regard to To-
cality, provided only that he will make fit
ting leader for Il great political and moral
revolution.

Union Mills Items.

On Sunday evening last, we had the heav-
lest rain that this section experienced for
many years. The rain came from the west
and was accompanied by a violent wind, ter
rifle peals of thunder and vivid flashes of
lightning. Old persons think they never saw
it rain faster. The heaviest of the rain ex-
tended from the valley of Pipe Creek to Sill
yer Run Valley. There is not corn field in
all that scope, that is not badly washed, and
in some instances so much so that they
scarcely can be poughed. The damage done
to confields alone, is immense, besides mea-
dows and grain fields were overlooked, and
the grass and grain covered with earth.
On last Sunday afternoon committee of
Burns Post of Westminster, decorated the
graves of the soldiers in the cemetery at Sill
yer Run, with appropriate services.
Rev. o. c. Roth, former pastor of the
Lutheran congregation of Silver Run, moved
to Taneytown on Thursday last. He goes
there in pursuance to a call previously given
him by the Lutheran congregation at that
place. His leave from Silver Run is much
by his many friends.
B. f. Shriver & Co. commenced canning
peas on Tuesday last.
Mr.. A. Wisner of Silver Run raised large
bank barn on Wednesday last.

Serious Loss to a Former Carroll Conn
tian.

VIM. j. Morelock received last week letter
from his sister, Mrs. David H. Byers, of
Wheatland, Kansas, formerly of this county,
which states that on May oath last they were
visited by terrific rain and hail storm, which
DESTROYED their wheat, oats and corn crop.
The wheat was cut off as clean as if a reaper
had been used, and corn, which was ten
inches high, was also cut off. In the garden,
which was in excellent condition, everything
was DESTROYED, as also their peach, apple, pear
and cherry trees All the small limbs were
broken off and the bark peeled from the trunks
of the trees The wheat was in head and
gave promise of a fine yield. About miles
west of them the storm was more destructive.
Houses were blown down and several people
have since died from wounds received from
flying timbers cupboards were upset from
the violent shaking of the houses, and in many
instances all the crockery ware broken.
MANY persons received severe bruises on their
faces and hands from the hail, and horses and
cattle had their eyes knocked out and their
bodies swelled to nearly double their natural
condition from the pelting of the hail. Cattle
and horses that were picketed broke loose,
and ran over barbed-wire fences and hedges
in their effort to obtain shelter hogs and
chickens were killed and rabbits and birds in
great numbers were found dead in the fields
the next day. Fortunately Mr. Byers' house
did not suffer much, but the door was bursted
open by the force of the wind and in short
time the water was ankle deep in his dining
room. The many friends of Mr.. Byers in
this vicinity will greatly regret his loss.
