New YORK, July IA poll of the
delegates to the democratic conven
ton, made by the New York Herald
correspondents, shows a surprising con-
dition of affairs. Few of the state del-
egations have been instructed to vote
for any candidate. In the states
where no instructions have been given
delegates hesitated to express choice,
and when they did it was nearly al
ways with the reservation that the sit
uation when they reached Chicago
might cause them to change their
views. This poll has resulted in show

The Fodder Shredder.

The shredder is a great machine
and beats the old time cutter out of
sight. In place Of knives, the
shredder has saws-nine ten inch
circular saws, fastened securely on
a shaft, not at right angles to the
shaft, but a little BIASED, and about
threeinchesapart. The fodder is fed
top foremost in the usual way, and
when this gang of saws are speeded
up to the humming point, the stalks
are torn into shreds three to six
inches long and bruised into a soft,
spongy, chaffy consistency, mixed
with the blades, the whole mass
being put in excellent condition for
mastication by the cattle. The
machine uses up fodder very rap
idly and has a carrier which re-
ceives the macerated mass and
empties it Into a NOW or wherever
desired. G. G. Reynolds was
operating one of the shredders in
town a few days ago, which a mum
Der of townies viewed with much
interest.

AlI-the-Year Racing i'm Cecil.

1t is the purpose of the racing
people to put in a full year in 1897
at racing in Cecil county. They
have announced that on New Years
Day that the Barksdale track will
be open. This will be followed by
the three tracks at Iron Hill for a
period of 80 days, and then Sin
gerly for 30 days and Elkton for 80
days more. the tracks already
constructed will afford racing until
in the fall. Iron Hill is going now,
Singerly having just closed.
1t is to be hoped that members
to the next legislature from this
county will be chosen who will
represent the people of this county
better than those of the last legisla-
ture, and this carnival of crime and
disgrace to the county will be
stopped short, and that Elkton hot
bed called the Agricultural Fair
will he included in the grand house
cleaning. The Elkton Agricultural
Fair was the foster mother of all
this deviltry.

blankets for use of the inmates.
J. H. Maxwell was ordered to see about

Steps were taken this week to organize
an association for lecture course In Ris-

favorable for the completion of the pro-
ject. Col. Geo. w. Balm, the matchless
Kentucky orator, has been secured to
deliver his new lecture, "The New
Woman and the Old Man." in the Town
Hall on Monday evening, Dec. I4th.
The fact that this will be Col. Bains'
sixth appearance before a Rising Sun
audience is the strongest testimonial we
can give and that he will be greeted with
crowded house is a foregone conclusion.
Further particulars regarding the course
will be given next week and it is hoped
the community will give hearty support
to this laudable enterprise.
