BE Up and Doing.

For many years past the lNDEPEaraNT
mas con.cndcd that if united aud encr
grtic efforts Sero made here at home by
cur own people, to show to the outside
world what magnificent county was
ours. tina! in a very short time thereaf-
ter, hundreds Of thrifty persons would
flock here, buy up our waste lands,
md our county and people would soon
become the most prosperous in Maryland
But heretofore there has been no steps
taken save a sporadic effort made now
and then tc,gct State aid. The South
crn Maryland Development Company,
which has been, up to the present time,
getting lands upon their books prepara-
tory to putting the same on the market,
has apparently gone to work with will
to get desirable persons oinycst in lands
in Southern Maryland. One of the re-
suits Of the effort made by .he energetic
officials of this company is the presence
in this county Of several gent cmon from
Pennsylvania looking a, our lands
These gentlemen are 50 we'll pleased

Of them has bought several lots at Cox's
aud a farm near the river and they all
anhcsitatiusly declare that lbcy will not
only purchase lands but will also induce
others from their State to buy. IN
many portions Of the North the mistaken
belief still prevails that our people will
not treat persons Of northern birth with
that cordialty that they would desire to
receive, OF, that they would be ostraciz-
ed because Of political opinions. While
we know that such oLiBions are entirely
erroneous, yet they have deterrent ef-
feet, aud every effort should be made to
disabuse the minds of all, who wish to
make homes among Us, Of such mistaken
ideas. Another mistaken opinion that
many persops living in the North have
formed is, that our section is very I'M
healthy and that all our people suffer
from malarial troubles. Wilde we
know that this too is Ear from tru h.
that the death rate in Charles county

We fully agree with the Merchants

"Orgaaization in politics is as necessary
as it is in business In fact no great
work, whether in political matters os in
trade, can be carried on without thorough
and complete organization, AVID hence all
attacks on men whose ability as leaders
has brought them to the front, is blow

Reasons why he should be Elected.


The st. Mary, Enterprise. n an e..
i'orinl on tue recent convention held in
Il 'onard'own which nominated Col
Wilmer R"pub.iean candidate for Chief
Judge Of ;his Judicial Circuit. says:
"coL Wilmer is justly regarded as
one Of he sbIest legality of southern
Marylanl, gentleman Of fine personal
appearance and pleasing manner. one 10
every way fitted for the exslted position
be will soon be elected 10 fiji. Besides
the qualification already mentioned Col.
Wilmer is honest in all the relations Of
lie, irlcPeslent in thought, bold. man
ly and f'asless in the maintenance Of his
convictions and absolutely impartial and
non-partsan IA feeling Just the gentle
man under whose Judgment the people
nay expect even and exact justice to all,
without regard to color or condition
Col. Wilmer will receive the fun san.
port Of the Republican vo.ers Of the Cir
cult and, we trust and believe. will be
supported by all good Democrats who
believe in the capabilsy, purity and
fahhfuness of those who are or may be
called upon to dispense Justice from the
3 nch.
Another reason why Col. Wilmer
should be elected. aud we think a poteat
one, is the fac. that the Chief Judge Of
each jUlicial district is member of the
Court Of Appeals Bench, which is, at
present, composed Wholly Of those who
have been reared ia the Democratic
faith Sometimes the CoHrt Of Appeals
Bench has to decide questions Of SERIAL
political Importance and while we do aot
and would not impute any motive other
than legal conviction, none of us are so
pure and SO perfect, that our early con
victions do not cling to us and, however
unconscious we may be Of the fact, sway
our Judgments and bias our opinion aud
views. Erea hancled ipsti~ would
seem TO urge an admixture Of feeling
and conviction in our appellate court

A Free Trade Falsehood Nailed.

ed that the American Screw Company,
which employs about 5000 people in
Providence. was about to shut up its

the Mckinley bill The Press is able
TO announce, on the excellent authority
of the Boston journal, that these reports

circulated the rumor of the company's
removal lave enough manliness and

matter? " Y Press,
