DECORATING THE i..vlNG.

To-day the crippled soldier comes
Where some are laid to rest;
He hears in dreams the distant drums
From North, South. East, and West
And on the shafts that point above
He sees the banners furled,
In token of Nations love
And peace throu yhout the world.
Which flag was theirs it matters not;
The blue coat or the gray;
A common grief-all else forgot
Belongs to them day:
Above the graves Of those who fell
Upon the battlefield,
In town and city, hill and dell,
Spring weaves her grassy shield.
And while we deck our heroes tombs,
Their deeds emembering,
The children orc W the veteran
With woven blooms Of spring.
Please God we never will forget
To let our garlands fall
Upon those heroes living yet:
God bless them, one and ALL

Senator Poe has introduced bill pro.
yiding for certain material changes in the
registration and election law. The features
which relate TO the counties may be briefly
stated as follows: ain the first place the
two poll books are abolished, but the regis
ters are TO make duplicate registration books
one OF which is to be used by the judges oi
election, instead of the poll-book as under
the existing law. An appeal is provided
for TO the Court of Appeals from the decis.
ions of the Circuit Court Judges in appeal
cases from the registers; said appeals to be
taken within five days and heard at once by
the Court
The most important amendment, how
ever, is that relating to the evidence of legal
residence. II provides that all persons
other than officials or employees Of the Uni
ted States, who have removed from the
State and taken up residence elsewhere,
shall be presumed to have abandoned their
legal residence, unless within thirty days
after the passage of the law they shall go in
person before the Clerk of the County from
which they have removed, and make affi-
dayst that they did not intend to change
their legal residence but had q fixed pur-
pose to return at some definite time. and
that they intend to return TO the State and
take up their actl9l residence and habita-
fion therein ON or before six months next
preceding the Tuesday afts- the first Mon
day in November, 1890; ana Gnless they
shall actually take up said reside1ce, the
officers of registration shall stri Ike of their
names from the registration list. Exactly
the same regulations apply to those who
may remove from the State after the passage
Of The law, except that they shall mske the
s1hdavit within ten days Rftsr removal

DISAGREEMENT.

President Stake, Of the Maryland Farm
ers Association, and the farmers of the
counties do not seem TO be in harmony in
their opiai0nS on the present system OF
working public roads. Mr.. Stake in his
speech ut the late annual meeting Of the
Association, stated that "our road laws are
a bungliag mass Of inconsistent and incon-
gruous acts without system"
The farmers OF this and Baltimore coun-
aics have met and discussed since the SUBJ
Iect OF belter roads, and the former have
said by their conclusions that 40 better
system of working dirt roads could be de-
vised, and the latter without equivocation
said the same thing
President Stake is not patriotic il he
knows OF a beater and cheaper SYSTEM Of
road working and does not make it known
to his country constituents. and we judge
that he does from bis intrepid onslaught on
The present laws.
