GLENDALE.


Please allow me space in your columns
to chronicle the events happening in and
around our little village. You have had
several correspondents from this place, but
they seem to vanish away ike the mist Of
the sea. but when you take into considera-
ton our situation and few inhabitants, It
is no wonder that we cannot find material
for weekly letter for your valuable paper;
yet we are not dead but alive and prosper
ing. When we have nothing else to do we
attend to other peoples business, and that
keeps US all very busy most of the time.
From the present outlook there will soon
be built at this place a Methodist Protestant
Church The ground has already been
donated, and liberal offers of cash have
been received We welcome all such enter
prises in our midst, for there is plenty of
room here to do good, and as the condition
of the NJ. E. Church spiritually seems to
be on the wane, perhaps the new church
will awaken the people and cause a revival
to follow,a thing much needed at this point
S. E Reed & Brother, our enterpFising
basket manufaeturers,a ARE very busy at the
present time. They give employment to a
number of men and boys, and have put in
the most improved machinery They are
turning out baskets of the most durable
kind
D. c Lekites is improving his property
by having an addition built, and when COM
pleted will add much to its beauty. Con-
tractor Barr, of Georgetown, is superin-
tending the work.
Peach trees are in full bloom and the
present indications are that a large crop
will be picked. This will be a God-send to
our farmers, who have had nothing but
failures in fruit crops for several years.
7 u. Marvil will again operate the can
merry at this plare. He is now contracting
for tomatoes Mr. M has always been
prompt to pay the farmers, consequently he
has no trouble in getting the necessary |
material to keep his factory going.
Our farmers are now busy blowing, but
the continued cold weather has delayed |
work of all kinds. Yet the prospect now
is, that the acreage for corn will be as large
as in former years
The death angel has again visited our
town. This time the home of iona Filings
worth has been invaded and his pretty two
year old child has been taken to that I'M
Known world. We pity the parents It
vas the only child and was such a bright
title girl We can only say to them in
heir bereavement, turn to the only One who
an give peace when the heart is weighed
Town with sorrow and almost broken.

established by the Mckinley tariff
law, was officially giving the lie to
every Democratic editor and stump
speaker who took part in the last
Presidential campaign, all of whom
had declared in the most positive
terms that there was no such thing
as the manufacture of tin and terne
p'ates for commercial purposes in
the United States, and predicted that
three months after the election il
would be impossible to find an Amer
lean tin plate factory at work. But
the makers of the Mckinley law
knew what they were about. They
gave the manufacture of tin and
terne plate such a firm footing in the
United States that it has continued
to grow although its growth has been
slow since the enactment Of the Dem
ocratic tariff. Had the Republican
party continued in power there would
to-day have been no need to import
a pound of tin OF terne plate.

ALI legislation asked for by the
Democratic party of Delaware on
political subjects, have had for their
chief object the placing of obstacles
in the way Of people who can not
read and casting their votes
understandingly-or making it inn
possible for them to vote at all by
reason Of laws, which can be twisted
in like manner as our infamous de-
linquent laws. A Democratic Leg
islature would place the illiterate
white and negro voter in the position
the same classes occupy in Virginia
and other southern states.

REPUBLICANS are interested observ.
ers of the rumpus in the Democratic
party which r.Cleveland has stirred
up over the silver question. They
have expected for some time that the
Democratic party would split into
silver and gold factions before the
opening of the Presidential cam
paign and those expectations seem
now to be in a fair way Of material
izing into facts. They are merely
amused by the chimerical assertions
of certain of Mr.. Cleveland's follow.
ers, that the Republican party would
support Mr.. Cleveland on a single
gold standard platform They know
that not even a small section OF the
Republican party could under any
combination of circumstances be
brought to support Mr. Cleveland
upon any platform. They are quite
as much amused by the assertion
that the Republican party, outside
of the extreme Western States. is
gold standard party. Ofcourse it is
needless to say to any intelligent
Republican, and most Republicans
are intelligent, whether he lives north.

SECRETARY GRESHAM is quite
touchy over that apology demanded
from Spain on account of the firing
on the Alliance and which has never
been made. The new Spanish Min
lister is expected to arrive in Wash
ington in few days and that his ar
rival will shortly be followed by an
apology from his government for
firing on the American flag or By a
demand from his government that
Secretary Gresham apologize for
having made the original demand.
No one in these days is surprised at
anything that occurs in connection
with our foreign relations.

THE Republican party has, since
the question has been raised, repeat
eddy declared in its national plat.
forms in favor of bimetalism, which
the Century Dictionary thus defines.
"The use of two metals as money at
relative values set by legislative en-
actment; the union of two metals in
circulation as money at fixed rate.
Specifically, that system of coinage
which recognizes both coins of silver
and coins of gold as legal tender to
any amount, or the concurrent use
of coins of two metals as a circulat-
ing medium at fixed relative value. "
There is no indication that the next
Republican National Convention will
do otherwise than reaffirm that dec
laration. There is only one single
standard gold party, and that is the
Cleveland wing of the Democratic
party.

MONDAY of last week was the last
day upon which returns could be
made without penalty by those who
are liable for the judicially emascu.
lated income tax, and orders have
been issued from Washington that
all those who fail are to be immedi-
ately proceeded against by the col
lectors ofInternal Revenue. At one
time President Cleveland's Cabinet
had under consideration the advisa.
bility of suspending the collection of.
the tax until the Supreme Court had
passed upon its constitutionality
with full bench, and it is said that
it would have been suspended had
not Secretary Carlisle insisted upon
the necessity of getting as much
money as possible out of the tax,
even if some of it should have to be
paid back under later decision of
the Supreme Court. 1t is regarded
as almost certain that the case will in
the near future be reargued and
decision reached by full bench.

THE TIDE STILL RISING.

When tide begins to come in along the
beach it fills this little dry hole, then it
washes over that sandy place, and finally it
washes over the whole beach. And it is
done SO gradually and imperceptibly that
it is high tide before we know it. Well
the holes are filling. The Fifty cent wheat
hole has disappeared, and Sixty-fve cent
wheat has taken it's place. The Three cent
beef hole has disappeared, and 81 cent beef
has taken its place. This is good for the
farmers, but it has been so gradual you
have hardly noticed it-not noticed it per
haps sufficiently to stop croaking and say
good word for the change. And yet if all
in one day in 1898, wheat had gone up fif-
teen cents a bushel and cattle p cents a
pound, you would have had celebration
IN honor Of it. Horses too, which are a
part OF the farmers stock in trade. are
rising in price. Every sign points the same
way-tO better and easier times. The re-
ceipts OF the U. S. Treasury Department
for March came nearer covering the expen-
ditures for that month than they have for
many month before. And then, for the
first time in along time, the renewal of for
eign orders for American securities has
begun.
