HIS First. Ride.

CLINTON, No., Jan. 11.-Phineas john
son of Henry county is SO years old,
and Tuesday ne took his first ride
on railroad train. He came into
Clinton to apply for pension and would
have filed his application long ago if he
had not dreaded the risk incident to a
ride on the railroad cars, but hearing
that other loyalists would get all the
money in the treasury before he mus
tered up courage to make the trip he
summoned ali his fortitude, boarded the
train and rode into Clinton in safety.
Mr.. Johnson said that he witnessed the
building of the second railroad con-
structed in the United States, but that
he has never had any desire or inclina-
ton to ride on the newfangled things,
and that nothing less than the hope of
getting pension to remunerate him for
having fought and bled for his country
would have tempted him to go on board
the train,

The farmers in our vicinity are now in the
midst of corn planting. Some, however,
finished last week. A great deal of the grow
ing grain looks somewhat scabby in our sec
ton.
On Thursday of last week, while Milton S.
Barrick was burning off his field near Patap-
SEQ, the fire got away from him and burned
over a track of timber land belonging to
Jacob NJ. Leppo. A great deal Of fencing
was destroyed and no doubt the young timber
was more or less injured.

One of the pleasantest entertainments ever
given at Western Maryland College was that
Of the ninth anniversary of Stockton Literary
Society, composed of students of the West
minister Theological Seminary, which took
place on Monday evening last, May ID, in the
College Auditorium. A large audience, in
GLIDING many prominent citizens, greeted the
society when the members who were to fake
an active part in the programme appeared
upon the stage, which was tastefully and
appropriately decorated. The venerable and
beloved President of the Seminary and ex-
President Of the College, Rev. j. L. Ward,
D. D.; Rev. T. II. Lewis, d. D., President
of the Colleges Rev. S. Simpson, of the fac
ulty, and Rev. A. ID. Melvin, pastor of the
Methodist Protestant Church, occupied seats
upon the platform. The programme, which
was n very interesting one, and admirably
rendered, opened with prayer by Rev. A. D.
Melvin, and closed with the benediction By
Rev. Dr. Ward. Rev. Dorsey Blake, of
Kansas, President of the Society, welcomed
the audience in brief but cordial and beau
tiful presidents address, and Mr.. E. c.

Messrs. Murphy, C. p Nowlin, of Lynchburg,

greatest attractions, was in charge of Prof.

with vocal solo, The college glee club rem

In last weeks issue of the Advocate there
appeared an article in reference to the re-
Gently enacted high license law and the dis
satisfaction emanating from several parts of
that law. While the article, we believe, is
not intended in any way as defense either
for temperance or non temperance men,
and is wholly unbiased, yet it is possible that
a part of it may be misconstrued by some.
There is a statement to the effect that for
once "Prohibitionists'' and Whiskey men are
working for the same end. This is likely to
be misunderstood by those unacquainted with
the case. In the FIRST place, it might create
the impression that the Prohibi;ionists have,
to certain extent, compromised with the Whis
KEY men. Such an occurrence would simply
be absurd. The saloon keeper we believe,
is doing more to demoralize the American
people than any one else, except the man
who deliberately votes for the support of the
rum traffic. Prohibihonists are members of
a great political organization, whose avowed
purpose is the suppression of the liquor traf-
fic. A compromise between two classes of
people whose views are so directly antagonistic
is impossible. We admit that some ofu have
attacked the high license law at nearly the
same time that the whiskey men attacked 1t.
But the purpose of the attack on the one
side is totally different from that of the other
The liquor dealers desire to prevent the en-
forcement of that law because that law re-
uuires them 10 pay so much license that the
profits of the business may in some cases be
lessened by it. The Prohibitionists and tenn
perance men are merely trying to have the
amendment TO the law exempting Freedom
district enforced, since it was clearly the in
tention of the amendment, to allow Freedom
district to retain her prohibtory law.

A Step in the Right Direction.
LFor the Democratic Advocate

For the Democratic Advocated
The practice of throwing all the rakings,
trash prunings and debris of spring cleaning,
not to speak of tin cans, &C., into the public
road, that obtains so generally among those
whose Yards abut on the roads, is likely TO
be somewhat checked by the action of Mr..
S. S. Belt, supervisor of the Bartholow road,
from Eldersburg to Selbys mill, who OBJ
tanned warrant from Squire j. Frank Ship
lev against Laura Davis, colored, who lives
on that road, and who, having been warned
that her action in throwing the trash in the
road was illegal, persisted in doing so.
The case was tried by Squire Shipley on
Saturday, at freedom, and resulted in the
filming of the woman Davis, one cent and cost,
amounting to $40.
This failure to consider the rights of others
is far too prevalent, and many farmers, as
well as those living on the roads, throw
stumps, roots, and trash from the harrows,
into the roads to save themselves the trouble
of burning the stuff.
Mr.. Goibart, supervisor ofthe Liberty road
at Eldersburg, is taking action to stop this
dangerous and reprehensible practice, which
is liable at all times to cause shying OF horses,
and even runaways, by the catching OF the
roots or brush in a wheel, which roots oil
brush are then whirled round so as to strike
the horse.
If all supervisors took the same course in
this matter as Mr.. Belt, there would be less
use of the public road as dumping ground
