A DraxinR-Room Screen.

A lovely screen may be made for the
drawing-room by covering three panels
with pale pink plush. and appliqueing
large artificial blush roses in the fol-
lowing manner: Buy as pretty roses
as you can get and of any color that
goes well with the plush. Press them
in a heavy book just as you would press
4 natural flower. When considerably
Aattened arrange them with their buds
and leaves in the panels and with heavy
floss silk to match, cover the edges of
the leaves that lie fat on the material,
fastening the rest down in their place
with a few stitches. The leaves may
be covered in the same way, and the
stems as well, so that when finished
the effect is of an embroidered bass
relief and is exceedingly effective.
Any other artificial flowers that will
lend themselves to this method Of
treatment may be used in lieu of roses
aud will look equally well. These
floral screens make particularly pref
ty background if low chair is placed
in front of one Of ofthem.-N.Y. Y. Tribune.

CORN Is KING.

Before the war il used To be said,
Cotton is king" and there was n
time when it was the chief product oi
the United States in point of volume
and value.
Several times since 1870 il has
been difficult TO decide which was the
greater, cotton or corn, but with the
extension of agriculture into the West
and Northwest, and with the diversity
of crops which the hard times have
made necessary in the South itself,
corn has come to be king among the
products of the American farm. In
volume it surpasses cotton, and in the
value of exports and that used for
home consumption il overreaches cot
ton by several million dollars.
Just now corn occupies a unique
position among the products of North
America. Its harvest and transpor-
tation to the seaboard offers almost the
last hope of the bankrupt and finan-
cially embarrassed railway companies
for the balance of the year. The
acreage of wheat in the Northwest has
materially decreased, while that Of
corn has increased, and the shipments
of this cereal are being awaited with
considerable anticipation OH the part
of spectators and transportation
agents. From the corniield the rail.
ways expect TO get back what they
have lost in the recent strike, and to
make up some sort Of a showing for
the decreased earnings CT the first half
OF the year.

CANDIDATE MILES.

The Baltimore Nems has written to
Hon. Joshua Miles for his views on
the tariff. Here is what he replied
The Chicago platform of 1892, as
understand it, distinctly commits the
Democratic party to the principle OF
free raw materials and to such an
adjustment of the tariff on finished
products as will secure ample revenue
to defray the expenses of the Govern
ment. My convictions are along these
lines, and the people of my county
and of the First Congressional District.
i believe, are in sympathy with this
doctrine"

The Baltimore lmerican has this to
say about the Peninsula and its poll
ticans: OF all the sections of the
eastern part of this great country, the
Peninsula composed of Delaware, the
Eastern Shore of Maryland and the
Eastern Shore of Virginia, probably
has more politics to the square inch
than any other piece of land in the
world. Its possibilities of office-hold-
ing are larger, and its rivalries for
place are stronger. At one time it
had three representatives and four
United States senators in the same
Congress, although its total population
was not three hundred thousand. We
in Maryland know how well the East
ern Shoremen can scheme and fight
in matters involving nominations and
elections.

Now THAT Congress has passed u

more stations. One is especially need

being no station between the one at

CONVENTION ECHOES.
What the Political Writers Of
the Baltimore American"
and "MOrning Herald"
Think of it..

From the baltimore American.
The general impression seems to he
that Colonel John Walter Smith, as
one Of the results OF Thursdays work,
becomes Il leading candidate for CUB
ernatorials honors. He is a shrewd
leader, a careful calculator. an ener-
getic fighter, and possesses personal
popularity that will stand him in good
stead. He is preparing to give Cover
nor Brown a lively battle for the nom-
ination, not only in the counties, but
in Baltimore City as well. lie is now
apparently master Of the situation on
the Eastern Shore, and will aim to
hold those counties well in line. His
chief difficulty will be with the three
counties above the Choptank, which
were left out of Thursdays combina-
iion, and work upon these will furnish
ample work for leisure moments dur.
ing the next twelve months.
Democratic messenger., 1894-08-04
From the baltimore Hcrnld.

From the baltimore Herald.
Whatever may be the differences OF
opinion among the Democrats rs to
the phrasing of the resolutions adopted
by the Ocean City convention, there
seems to he a decided unanimity OF
sentiment that the candidates chosen,
Messrs. Miles and Henry, are above
repr0ach as to their characters and
well equipped for the offices for which
they have been named by education
and experience.
1t has been contended that inasmuch
as both gentlemen come from the low
er section of the Eastern Shore-be.
low the Choptank River-while Sen
ator Gibson's home is above, the
latter's- chances for reelection by the
Legislature of 1896 have thereby
been enhanced. Yet, il the Choptank
River is to determine the Eastern
Shore Senatorial succession, it is diff
cult to believe that Ex-Governor Jack
son, who is himself an aspirant to Mr..
Gibson's seat, would have cast his lot
with Miles and Henry. That this has
been the ex-Governor's ticket all
along is stated on good authority.
AS for Col. John Walter Smith, who
although not a member of the conven.
ton, was the strongest factor on the
Eastern Shore in influencing its action,
his friends are entirely satisfied. Col.
Smith is one of the leading candidate.
for the next Gubernatorial nomination.,
and when he combined the lower shore
for Miles and Henry it is highly prob.
able that he did it in such manner
as to ensure himself l6 solid vote,
from those Counties in the next state
convention.

and has won for himself host of
friends. Mr.. Fredericks is good citi-
zen and kind neighbor and both he and

Mrs. Fredericks we lose as intellectual
lady as the county affords, and one

cellent family greatly, but our good
wishes will follow our old friends and
neighbors though they cross the Pacific
Ocean or the Mexican Gulf.
