District held an enthusiastic out door
meeting last Saturday. Hon. w. Laird
Henry was detained at his home by
unavoidable circumstances and our
people did not get To see him, much to
their regret, but Hon. Joshua W.
Miles was here i'll every sense of the
word and made one of the most telling
speeches ever heard in this section Of
the county. by the ability he dis
played we are convinced no mistake
whatever was made ut Ocean City in
calling Mr.. Miles TO lead his district.
He spoke in no uncertain tones. de-
claring himself to be AN ouT-ANDoUr
CLEVELAND DEMOCRAT and thorough
ly in accord with the principles of the
Democratic party rs understood and
proclaimed by our President. lie
showed up McKinleyism in its true
and proper light as corrupt and
robbing scheme to filch from the poor
their earnings in order to increase
the riches of the trusts and combines
of a few manufacturers who already
literally roll in wealth.
lie also showed the advantages of
the new tariff law-its reduction of the
tariff OF the common necessities of life,
and foretold the revival of business and
the return of prosperity to the people
under its workings.
M. Miles declared himself absolute
" for FREE RAW MATERIALS, and SAID
it was his purpose, if elected. to do his
utmost to push the war forward until
trusts and combines of every description
are wholly annihilated and not single
cent Of tariff levied but for actual gov
einmcm.al purposes. lie held his
crowd spell-bound for about two hours
and his speech has inspired our people
with new zeal for the cause of Democ-
racy-the peoples cause-and we pro-
pose to make things lively from now
until the election.
The Pocomoke band enlivened the
meeting with appropriate music.
We feel proud of our ticket. Both
candidates are pure, clean men and
possessed Of those intellectual qualities
which make strong and effective Rep
resentatives in our national Congress.
Let us rally our people to their support
and give them an old-time majority.

Surveying for the Canal.

Civil Engineers Moreland, of vii.
mington, Del. and Gillette, of New
York, OH Wednesday commenced SUR
veying the route for the proposed canal
to connect the Pocomoke River and
Sinepuxent Bay. In order to ascer-
tain the most feasible route two lines
will be run, the starting point in both
cases being the same, about three
quarters of mile above Snow Hill,
one route to enter the bay at Scarbor-
oughs Creek, about mile above, the
other at Richardson's, short distance
below Spence's Landing. The distance
between the river and bay is about
seven miles. 1t is hoped that the SUR
vey may lead in the final consummation
of canal, as it will place large section
in direct communication with Baltimore
markets, and prove beneficial in many
other respects TO farmers and others
residing on the seaside.
This canal has for many years been
discussed in more or less desultory
manner, but the recent agitation of the
Maryland and Delaware ship canal
project has aroused interest in this local
scheme, and steps are being taken to
place the undertaking on a sound bust
ness basis. BY opening the way for
vessels from the Sinepuxent Bay to the
Pocomoke River, the former great body
of water, with all its tributary country,
will be placed in communication with
Baltimore. The Sinepuxent Bay washes
a territory extending from Sussex
county, Delaware, to Chincoteague
Island, Va. with its varied lumber,
agricultural. fishing and oystering
interests.

\ Wonderful COnquerOr.

No disease is more common among the
people than scrofula. Handed down from
generation to generation, it is found in
nearly every family. in some form. Ii may
make its appearance in dreadful running
sores, in swellings in the neck or goitre. or
in ernptions of varios forms. Attacking the
mucous membrane it may be known as en-
tarrh or developing in the lungs it may he.
and often is, the prime cause of consump-
ton.
In whatever form scrofula may manifest
itself. Hoods Sarsaparilla is its inveterate
foe and conqucror. This medicine has such
powerful alternative and vitalizing effects
upon the blood that every trace of impurity
is expelled, and the blood is made rich,
pnrc and healthy.
