DEBT.

OF all the miserable inconsistencies
of business or social life the condition
of debt is the most to be despised. 1t
is life's solemn shadow that ever thwarts
the sunshine peace and happiness en-
deavor to throw about it. He whose
mind is burdened with the thought OF
some pressing financial obligation is a
poor associate and disagreeable COM
panion. He cannot walk out into the
streets without the constant dread OF
seeing the faces of his creditors peering
over his shoulders and dancing on be-
fore him in wild and tantalizing maze.
Almost every man in America is a
debtor. Financial obligations are the
order Of the day, therefore SO many
/ ileaden hearts and sallow CountenanCes.
There is one class, the dishonest class
which debt never worries, but to the
honest and truthful it is an ever living
torment. When at last in the case of
some poor fellow whose shoulders have
been bowed beneath the weight of debt
for years, he perhaps, feels the burden
lifted and his pathway in life clear be-
fore him the change that comes over
him is wonderful. A clear conscience
brings happy heart and sunny coun-
tenance, and mind clear of all debts,
3both financial and human, can we'll sup
port a clear conscience. The young
man plunged in debt IS truly an object
.of charity. His first wild dimpulse when
he enters the great highway of existence
is to owe bill. He desires more than
his purse can buy, but he buys it any
s.sway, feeling that he will soon have
enough to pay the bill and resolving

CONVENTION

l he Baltimore newspapers have hon
ored the farmers convention which
was held in that city on "Wednesday
last, with great deal of editorial com
ment, and have classed it fist among
the important institutions of the State.
The .4He11caR in commenting Oh the
convention says, in an advisory man
ner: 1t is to be hoped that the sub
iect of forest preservation will be Cou-
sidered by them. The rapidty with
which the woodlands of this state are
undergoing destruction is one OF the
most deplorable features of the times
The denuding Of the country Of its
natural clothing, the forests, decreases
the amount of rainfall, increa ;es the
area of evaporation, and thus tends to
protracted drouths. In all the coun-
tries of Europe the care of such for
ests as remain is made a charge upon
the state. New forests are planted,
and tended at great expense, and yet
can never equal the natural growth. If
we go on cutting down our woods al
the present wasteful rate, we shall be
forced to cultivate forests at great eX,
pense. 1t must be borne in mind. too.
that the value of the timber cut down
and destroyed is often far greater than
all the crops that can be raised on the
land for years added together. In In
diana the black walnut woods. cleared
away and burned up to make room for
corn planting, would today be worth
five times over all the corn that ever
has been raised there. 1t is thus, too,
in parts of this state. The growth of
maple, ash, oak, cherry, walnut, chest
nut, hickory might, under scientific
forestry, be made source of great profit
to the farmer. Timber trees should be
cultivated as carefully as orchards are,
with an eye to ultimate profit. The
returns are not swift, like the grains
and fruits but they are none the less
sure. Besides, it must be remembered
that timber, especially the hard woods,
are steadily rising i'll price. As the
woods are cleared, those that remain
are enhanced in value. The man who
has few acres of timber land now
would do well to take good care of
them. BY their growth they are work
ing for him while he is asleep. They
are increasing in quantity and in price
at the same time. A great point will
be gained when the farmers begin seri-
ously to consider the care and cultiva-
ton of woodlands as a part of the
serious business of agriculture.
The SIN reviews the convention
III Its widest sense as IN institution
of benefit to the farmers and the
county in matters of prosperity and
legislation. The SIN says: Few
gatherings of Maryland farmers have
possessed more interest than will
doubtless attach to the Safe convcn-
ton held in Baltimore last Wcdnes-
day. Delegates have been chosen
from the various counties, and some
of them have been instructed to
urge upon the consideration of their
fellow members certain measures
and schemes of legislation intended
to benefit particular localities, is
we'll as other matters designed to
promote the agricultural interests of
the State at large. Not the least
important of these is the sub ,,ect Of

The almanac for 1886 published by
the Baltimore San is one of specla
value, because it is crowded with Local
information. Elaborate tables are pub
lished, giving the election returns OF
Baltimore ard Maryland ; the trade and
social statistics of Baltimore are given
in full, besides full lists of city and State
officers. In addition to this special
matter the almanac contains record OF
general eyents for the year, 1885, a
sporting record of the year and vast
deal of miscellaneous matter.

THE B. & O. CUTTING RATES.

Buying Tickets to Baltimore for the Use o
Passengers West.
New ork was treated to the spectacle
last week of a railroad that does not
reach it offering to uudersell on passen
ger traffic all of the other trunk lines o
which New York is the Eastern terminus
The Baltimore and Ohlo was able to do
this by obtaining about seven hun Gred
tickets of the Penusy ylvania Road for
trips betw ween New York aud Baltimore.
1t is said to have paid the full schedule
price, $3.50. The traveller who elects
to avail himself of the Baltimore & Ohio
Sl3 rate to Chicago and on that basis to
other Western points uses one of these
tickets on the Pennsy lvania road to Bal
timore, where, at the expense of the Bal
timore and Ohio company, he is trasfer-
red a mile or So to its depot, rechecks his
baggage and starts afresh on his Journey.
The rate to Chicago by the Pennsy yIvania
and the New York Genital is $50 and BY
the West Shore, Erie and L:ckawana
$3.50; bnt none of them will give the
traveller as many hours on the ruli as
the Baltimore and Ohio does or the al
vantage of drive through the city OF
Baltimore. This new step by Baltimore
and Ohio is Incidental to d private quar-
rel between 1t and the Pennsy lvania road.

A CASE OF FORCE.

For some time past the Hon. Board
of County Commissioners has been try
ing to force the several County officers
into complying with its wishes in every
respect. The Board has actually de-
manded that County officers who differ
with its honorable body in politics shall
have their work done only where or
dered by the Board. The weakened
Republicans have fallen down, we are
sorry to say, and have acquiesced to
the demands of the Democratic County
Fathers. If it is in the power OF the
Commissioners to dictate to the other
County officers what they shall do, and
how they shall conduct the affairs OF
their respective offices, what is the use
Of electing any officers outside of
Board of Commissioners Why not let
the people center on this one point IN
elections and then have the Board ap.
point all County officers There would
be lust as much reason in this method
as there is in electing officers, and then
having them entirely controlled by
Board of Commissioners, irrespective
of party, principal or or anything else.
This is not commenting on Republicans
who have had principle enough and
faith enough in their own party to stand
up manfully against this force business,
but is calculated for the benefit of those
who think they have not strength
in their own party to again slide into
Office, and are depending upon Demo
cratic influence to help them out. 1t is
high time that these persons were set
aside. II Democrats are to run the
Republican machine in this county as
we'll as their own, let Republicans who
think they need Democratic votes to
elect them, depend on the great I'M
terrified party altogether or else let them
be Republicans and depend upon their
own party. This is plain talk, but the
occasion justiies it, and if there is any
further explanation needed, it will be
forthcoming on application.

JACKsONIAN SIMPLICITY.

When the success OF the Democratic
party in the last National election was
announced its partisan press, with one
accord informed a progressive and adj
vancing people that we were about 10
return TO the simplicity of the Demo
cracy Of old-the earlier and purer days
of the Republic. The first real hard
shock awakening us from our dream OF
simplicity was The "innocuous desue
tude" business that Cleveland fred at
US. But we recovered from that and
had again settled down TO our simpli.
city repose when Bayard, the big man
from Delaware, threw into our tents
volley OF jaw. breakers that sent every
last mothers son Of us hunting our
Webster Unabridged. In recent let
ter to the Chinese Minister our simpli-
city Secretary OF State made use Of the
following phrases absolutely un-
lateral" "contractural aspects, " "con.
scandinavian privileges" and 'resi-
DENTAL causes"
A few years ago Mr.. Bayard was
thought TO be very capable man, but
the higher the position which he attalns,
the more conspicuous shines forth his
official and mental incapacity. A man
who cannot express his ideas in words
that do not require of the reader an in.
spcelion Of the dictionary has no busl.
ness 10 hold office in this country.
The only case of simplicity so far
found in the Administration is that Of
MIR. Garland, who says he was not
aware OF doing anything wrong IN &C.
cepting stock IN company and using
the influence OF his Department in fur
thering the interests OF the company.
If we remember Alright, the Democratic
press called ii stealing and Official cor
ruplion and TWO or three other harsh
names when the chip was on the other
shoulder and labeled "Credit Mobiler. i"
OF course, the difference in the spelling
OF the "Pan.EIeclric" chip may have
had something to do with it. You

CARELESSNESS.

There is a law. we believe, in this
State that no Board Of County Commits
sioners shall allow bill for which they
have contracted until the duties speci.
fed have been performed, also that they
shall not pay for any articles until they
have been delivered. The present
Board have either overlooked this mat.
ter, or have willfully violated the law.
How many times this has been done we
cannot say, but one instance we do
know Of. This slip, shod way Of trans
acting business for the taxpayers is not
right, and is, TO say the least, very
careless.
