OCEAN CRY, Mp, Oct. 3.
Editors fthe Mcssenger:-Allow me
to congratulate you for the good work
you are doing in the cause OF our good,
grand old Democratic party. | know
from personal observation that you
have made votes for our ticket, and
il | did not know it myself should
now believe so, from the wall set up
by "rREBoR" or woodpecker or what
ever YOU call him. who writes to the
Pocomoke Taper from this place, or
rather pretends he is from here,
although he belongs in another town.
Why should he complain if you praise
Mr.. Smith for his ability and good
sense? / have been subscriber to
the MESSENGER for fifteen years and
if my memory serves me right Mr..
Smith has not been the only man
praised. / can remember the high
tributes paid to our beloved Senator
L. X. Wilson, 10 our distinguished
Congressman George w. Covington,
to our popular Mayor of Ocean City
and nearly every citizen of this county
who has filled positions of public trust,
since you have been stearing the MIS-
sENGER. | have not always agreed
with your course, but | do believe in
giving you and all other men credit
for their deserving acis. remember
well the Judicial convention ut this
place when Hon. George w. Purnell,
one of our foremost lawyers, was
candidate, and remember that the
MESSENGER was loud in its praise of
him and ardent in its advocacy of our
county's rights know that it did
the same thing for Clayton J. Purnell
and every time for my old friend Cow
ington. Mr.. Smith is now in the pub
lie eye. 1t is said he has good pros
poets of being elected 10 the United
States Senate if the Democratic party
is successful this Fall. We are inter.
ested in this move If no other. We
know that Mr.. Smith is already using
his influence to have another Life
Saving Station erected along our coast.
Perhaps this is what nauseates TIRE
BoR." Maybe he is one of the kind
who sit around and tell people what
they ought to do and at the same time
is a do nothing himself. We have
had lots of that kind of nauseating
stuff on the Beach this summer. What
we want is man who is worker,
and we have seen enough of Mr. Smith
in the last two summers while down
here to know that he will accomplish
something for Worcester county If he
is elected TO the Senate, and | think
it shows a very degraded spirit in
people who live in this county who are
assisting the Republican party by adj
vocating an Independent ticket and
thus trying TO prevent one OF our citi-
zens and our county being honored.
"rREBoR" in his writings is not rep
resenting the people OF this place and
he will find il out on election day.

CHILDREN OR ANIMALS.

Mr.. T. E. Bowman Says the Latter Some
times Get the Most Attention.
"If men were honored for what they
are and not for what they have, there
would not be such a scramble among
men to acquire great wealth." said 7. E.
Bowman az the Municipal league meet
ing last night
Mr.. Bowman was discussing the SKIN
dergartens" and this remark was brought
out in talking about the principle taught
in the kindergarten, that there should
be no cast or distinction among the
children.
Mr.. Bowman's address was one of the
best vet delivered before the league and
it was very we'll received. He said that
people took too little interest in the well
fare of their children and he cited as an
example the fact that a well-known edu-
Gator and authority on child life had
come to Topeka to lecture and he was
hardly noticed.
During the same week a doctor of ami
mails came to the state to investigate
disease which had broken out in a
herd of cattle in Geary county,
''The coming of this man,"
said he, twas announced in
all the papers from the time he
started from Washington until he passed
his opinion on this cattle disease"
He said that the trouble is that the
people are much more interested in read
ing things respecting their live s ock
than they are in reading things about
their children. He said that the inditfe-
renee came from a general Ignorance
respecting child nature.

A SOUND MONEY! writer says that
currency fallaciss always flourish when
the earning power of the masses is at
low ebb. When the earning power OF
the masses is at a low ebb, the masses
always seek the cause and they invaria-
bly, ind that it is because somebody has
been tinkering with the currency laws
and curtailing its volume. When the
medium is multiplied, says this writer,
safety dims the dream of want That is
Just it When the masses become
aroused something has to be done to still
the clamor. That was the way the de-
struction of the greenbacks was stopped;
that was the way the Bland law came
about and in the same way silver will be
restored to its place as money. Then
perhaps safety will dim the dream of
want, and worshippers of "sound money"
can set about another scheme of robbery
without nolestation. The average
American citizen is extremely careless
of his interests when he is prosperous.

Unsophisticated Savage.
It's quite the fad now for householders
to send their servants to a cooking school
and pay all the fees for their culinary edu-
cation. After taking course the servant
invariably resigns and goes after place
where her superior attachments will COM
mand higher remuneration.
"That makes three girls I've had taught
to cook, said Harlem woman who can
not afford to pay more than SIT month,
t'and each one has left as soon as have
paid for her tuition. The first one was
very anxious to become proficient in the art
and spent most of the week at the cooking
colleges learning to make complicated
dishes. She got so that she could cook
anything.

as to show off her superior attainments
which my friends had all heard about
from me, but had never tested. Two days
before the dinner party she decamped. She
had got better situation.
"The next, | was sure, wouldn't play
me shabby trick like that, and had her
graduate When she got her diploma, she
came and demanded raise of 81 a month
in her wages. She left, very much an

CIVIL WAR AT OTTAWA.
Members of the City Council Quarrel

With the Mayor.
OTTAWA, Kan, May 2.-Mayor G. G..
Wharton, who was elected at the recent
city election by a majority of four votes
as a citizens candidate over the regular
Republican nominee, has been having
trouble with the council ever since he
went into Office.
The council has refused to confirm his
appointments, but Mayor Wharton now
declares he is going to GUST the four
old members of the council who
have been giving him trouble. The mayor
has discovered that these four council
men who were elected last year failed
to file their statements of election ex
penses as required by the Australian
ballot law and he will take some action
to GUST them before another meeting of
the council is held.
The mayor will then appoint council
ment who will confirm his appointments
and work in harmony with his admins
tration.

just such a report as might have been
expected. The seven Democratic mem

that either the seven are right and the
five are wrong or the five are right and
the seven are wrong and the whole thir-
teen know it.
