TINE WORLDS LARGEST ORCHARD.

ln the Wild district between Hama
and Haiku during july aud August
the most beautiful and largest apple
orchards in the world eau be seen.
The Wilderness Of kOolau, as the
district is called, contains a forest Of
native wild apple trees, countless ia
number, stretching from the sea far
up the mountain sides. The trees
vary from forty to FIFTY feet in height,
and IN the harvest season. from July
10 September, are loaded down with
fruit, some white, but mostly red.
A person standing in the midst of
this orchard can look around him for
miles, up the mountains and towards
the road, and the only thing in view
will be one vast grove Of apple trees
literally red with ripe and ripening
fruit, the branches Of the trees bend
ing TO the ground with the bount-
eous harvest. The crop of this
extensive apple orchard which nature
planted in the solitary waste would
fill fleet of 100 steamers. The
orchard stretches over a country
from five 10 ten miles wide by twenty
miles long, and many of the larger
trees bear at least fifty barrels
apiece. The fruit is delicious for
table use and will appease both
thirst and hunger, but as yet no one
has taken the trouble to make any
commercial use of the apples. When
ripe they will not keep more than a
week, but they make excellent jelly
and jam, and simply for the lack of
little American enterprise millions
of barrels of apples are permitted
annually to fall to the ground and
rot. - Honolulu Letter to Chicago

COMMUNICATED.
ARTHUR P. GORMAN.
AZZANA.

Messrs Editors Twas said of Napo-
Icons great Marshal, Ney, that he who
have fought five hundred battles for France
and not one against her was shot as a
traitor" If hard words were bullets, the
same might be said Of Arthur p. German,
the great statesman and matchless leader
of the Democracy. BY his conspicuous
ability in the U. 5. Senate, he seems TO
have drawn upon himself the enmity Of
lesser minds; some of whom 10 an old iogy
ike me should be his best friends, but
who seem to be the first to try to discredlt
his services To his party and his country.
II by his great ability and matches
leadership in the Upper House of the
American Congress he has attracted the
attention of the people of the whole coun-
try 10 such an extent that the eyes of many
true Democrats insiinctively turn to him,
in certain emergencies, as the best fitted
and equipped man 20 bear and, l hope, to
plant upon the ramparts at Washington
the grand old flag unfurled by the hallow-
ed hand of jefferson and upheld by jack
son and host of others of honored men,
DRY, and by the great statesman Cleveland
and other great lights of the present day.
Ii, ! repeat, all this be so, should it be used
to the disadvantage of Mr.. German? On
the contrary think it should endcar him
to every Democrat at least in Maryland.
Yet there are Democrats here, large and
small, who seem to delight to belittle his
great services. 1t is a shame Messrs. Edi-
tors, that this should be so. In my judge
ment il should be the pride of every Mary
lander that we can furnish TO the country
and party man who is recognized from
one end Of the land to the other for such
conspicuous ability. Yet the greatest and
best men have their enemies but the peo-
pie Of the country may be trusted to honor
them "for the enemies they have made"
So will it be with Arthur p German,
and his vindication, if any is necessary,
will come in good time. 1t is not my OBJ
ject, Messrs. Editors, in this communica-
ton TO impugn any mans motives, but
would submit, is this according TO the old
Maryland idea of State pride and fair deal
ing. Ii our Democratic sister States see in
our gifted son the most available nominee
for the Presidency in 1892, should any
man in Maryland say nay; Shame on
him who would To my mind the very
head and front of his offending hath this
extent, no more: 1t is no fault OF his that
the leading Democrats of the country
should speak Of him as probable nomi-
nee for the highest Office within their gift.
II Is but just recognition of his services
which il Is needless to recount They are
of history, and "he who runs may read"

About Holiday Presents.

The privilege of giving is one that we
have always with us, just as we have the
poor, but at Christmas there Is an oppor
tunity for showing respect, esteem or affec-
ton 10 those whom We cannot offer gifts at
other times. The poor but proud person
whom we have longed to help but dare not
may be Cheercd by an unwonted luxury or
q gracefully Offered necessity. Friends
and relatives, indeed all with whom we
come in contact, may be made to know the
blessing of holiday cheer. 1t may be but
bright look, smile or 4 cordial MERRY
Christmas and Happy New Year. but
when the heart is there such gifts are ever
welcome. All who think of giving taugi-
bic presents are now absorbed in the bust
ness of selecting presents. Every one
wants TO have his present acceptable TO the
recipient and a few points well kept in
mind ought to insure that result In the
first place let your presents be appropriate.
Do not give shaving set TO a man with q
full beard nor some good wines 10 a teEl-
perance crusader, but, as we have said be-
fore exercise little judgment-then go
ahead and buy.
Yes ii is important that your holiday re-
membranes should be such as appeals TO
your friends tastes or needs, in order TO
fulill its mission. Having settled on the
class of gin best suited in any instance the
next thing TO be considered is your ability
to afford it and the best way 70 get it for
the least money; because a. no time is
business care and shrewd financiering
more desirable than in holiday purchasing.
You do not want to pay something for
nothing, even if you are going 20 give the
latter away free gratis.
When you are considering making your
Christmas presents it may be we'll to think
a minute at least Of the beautiful assort-
ments the merchants OF Leonardtown have
the most complete ever displayed by
them-and make personal inspection of
their stocks. If you have friend or rel
alive, possessed with literary attainments,
q nice book would be very appropriate.
Or even if you intend giving little, sim
pie remembrance to a friend for whom you
have only a passing regard, q present Of
this sort contains all the essentials neccs-
sary. 1t will be of use and ornament al
ways, It's value growing with the years and
its influence for good on the life into whose
possession il is given enduring forever. If
you are father or mother who wishes to
make your child happy in this season of
general gladness, do not fritier away your
money on knick knacks which are broken
or discarded in a week, but bring into
your home something Of intrinsic value,
something that will grow with years and
its influence TOR good enduring as the
years pass by. OF course the little ones
want something that will amuse them at
least during the week of festivities.

SENATOR PLUME.

Senator Plumb's death Sunday, OF apo
pIexy, will be greatly regretted in all parts
Of the country. His intelligence and indie
pendence were known Of all men, and his
possession of these qualities-not too COM
mon in politicians-gained him the admit
ration of men of all parties. His opposi-
ton 10 the insensate force bill in the last
Congress was potent factor in securing
its defeat. His death, il may be observed,
opens a way Tor Mr.. Ingalls's return to the
Senate. The Governor of Kansas is re-
publican and the Legislature Of the State is
not now in session. The Governor can,
therefore, if he sees proper, restore that in
discreet statesman to public life. That he
will do so is, however, trifie improbable
GENERAL KENLY.
The death of Gen. John r. Kenly has
removed from Baltimore q man of whom
the people have always entertained most
affectionate regard. In all the walks of life
he commanded respect His escutcheon
was without stain. His refusal TO relieve
his necessities in his advancing years by
the acceptance of pension was entirely in
accord with his elevated patriotism. The
old soldier of two wars was a hero who
preferred 70 suffer to any degree rather than
descend from the high position he had as
sumed.-SuH.
