The Next Governor.

From the tone of quite number of the
newspapers of Maryland it looks very much
as if Frank Brown, of Carroll county, late
Postmaster of Baltimore city, will be the next
Democratic candidate for Governor of the
state. 1t looks as if the people had taken the
matter in hand and intend to give Mr.. Brown
the nomination no matter what leaders or
pretended leaders may say. Mr.. Brown has
many friends in Washington county, who will
be glad to see him nominated, and if he is
nominated the News will give him cheerful
support, because it believes him to be good
man.

RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED.-The Frank Brown
Democratic Club of this place has adopted
the following resolutions: Whereas, We, as
a part of the Democracy of Allegany county,
Nd, fully impressed with the imperative ne
cessity of organized efforts in the coming
campaigns, both state and national, to that
end have formed Democratic club under the
name and title of 1.-The Frank Brown Demo.
cratic Club of Frostburg," for the reason that
there is no name in our grand old state of
Maryland under which energy, patriotism,
convictions, can be better illustrated and
carried to successful issue than the name of
the Hon. Frank Brown, of Carroll county;
therefore be it Resolved, That these resolu-
tions be spread upon our minutes, and copy
forwarded to the Hon. Frank Brown by the
secretary. ii. A. Bateman, Daniel Scally,
Fred. Mayer, Committee.
From the St Mary's Beacon.
So far Farmer Brown still holds the lead in
the race for the Gubernatorial nomination.
From the Cumberland Courier
Mr. Brown is practical farmer. He WAS
born on farm and has done all classes of
work incident to farming. He now owns and
manages one of the largest and best farms in
the state. His course in the legislature in
the interest of miners and as postmaster of
Baltimore brought the laboring class to his
side. His well known generosity to the poor
of Baltimore has gained many friends for him.
Therefore, taken as a whole, Mr.. Brown is
the strongest candidate the Democrats can
select. He would poll larger vote than any
other so far mentioned. With his name at
the head of the ticket next fall the Democrats
in every county of the state would stand d
first class chance of electing their legislative
and county officers. The farmers and gran
gers of the state will probably show their hand
at the next election, and in order to satisfy
them it would be advisable to select Mr..
Brown as the nominee.

The Town We Live in.

1t is common occurrence to hear citi-
zens of western towns complain that
are often called upon to contribute mon
ey for the public good. They are asked
TO share in the expense Of advertising
their city, obtaining new industry, or
accomplishing some other result aiming
at the common good rather than at their
own personal benefit. There are times
when this is felt as a burden, and when
even patriotic citizens turn their faces in
aversion from the man with with sub
seription paper.
No public-spirited citizen should allow
himself to be possessed by such feeling,
aud in western town all citizens should
be public spirited. Next to mans fam
lily and business, nothing should stand
nearer to his heart than the town in
which he lives. 1t is his homo. 1t is the
place where he wins his competence and
educates his children. He wants to
make it as populous, as thrifty and as
widely known as possible. He cannot
afford TO be indifferent to anything which
will further these ends. 1t is true that
demands for such purposes are frequent
and that it is necessary to use some dis
elimination in choosing methods, but in a
general sense it can be said that town
that is not worthy of the devotion of its
citizens in making it widely known,
and greatly prosperous, is town which
is not worth while to live in at all,
Western men should remember that such
public service is the penalty of living in
the ambitious West where the glories of
civilization are in the future rather than
the past. They should not forget that
they are the forefathers of this new en-
pire, and that it falls to their lot to leave
legacy rather than to receive one from
other hands.
1t is a mistake for the public to expect
a few prominent citizens to preform all
the labor and bear all the expense of
such undertakings. Real estate is not
the only interest benefited when town
is made famous, populous, and therefore
prosperous. Everybody, down to the
man who sells peanuts on the corner,
feels the pulse beat of this new develop
ment. Everybody can therefore afford
to do his share to bring it about. Nor
are the benefits to be measured entirely
by the amount of money obtained by live
methods in making town known to the
world.
There is no wife like our wife. There
are no children like our children. There
should be no town like our town-the
town where We live, the town whose
streets our baby's footsteps tread, the
town where we shall some day sleep. II
such town is worth anything it is worth
all we can do for it. 1t is worth the full
measure of our devotion. whether we re-
ceive an Immediate dividend in dollau
and cents. or whether we mersly take
our share of the common benefits accru-
ing to the community..IsTigo Age.

The quarter centennial of the Grand
Army of the Republic, which took place
at Detroit this week, was the grandest
of the many encampments that have
been held by that glorious organization.
The old veterans recognize that death
must soon thin their ranks, and time
will enfeeble those who still remain, and
thus cause a gradual decrease in the
grandure of their future meetings. They
have, therefore. strivcn to make this

weeks, succeeded in polling only 5000
