The County Commissioners Give
Warning About the Tramps.

The taxpayers of Frederick County
will heartily appreciate any move on
the part of the Board of County Com
missioners to restrict the movement OF
tramps to our Jail or alms-house. In
the first place, the people of Frederick
County built Montevue as home for
the poor and unfortunate of the county.
1t was never intended to be winter
resort for the hundreds of tramps, who
yearly seem to flock to this place. No
worthy case of charity need be turned
from the doors of Montevue; but whilst
we may be ready to feed the hungry
and assist those in distress, it is not
fair nor just to our people that we
should be expected to shelter and feed
hundreds u strangers who come here
to claim our assistance. The unfortu-
nate who are strong and hearty will
not hesitate to give few hours work
for the benefits they receive. We con-
TESS that we feel deep sympathy for
the hundreds of honest workmen who
are now forced to seek employment
from one end of the country to the
other; to this class everyone should
lend a helping hand, but the profess
sional tramp should not be included in
this list. We are informed that the
superintendent at Montevue will have
plenty of work for all whe apply for
assistance at Montevue.

Christmas.

THE observance of the merry Christ
mas-tide in this year of grace 1896. will
not differ materially from that of its
Immediate predecessor. Of course, in
the long ago, when the spirit of the
Yuletide had stronger control
over the sentiments Of the human
race than appears in these hard
fisted-money-making days, the ap.
proach and departure of the Christmas
season had its incidental and relative
Significance. More attention was then
paid to the time-honored traditions of
the feast, without which it loses half
Its pleasure, at least to the little ones.
Some newspapers have been SO unkind
as to endeavor to take away from the
children the one harmless cbj.ct of
their youthful innocence, by Informing
them that no such thing as Santa
Claus exists, and that all who tell
them SO are guilty Of a heinous offence.
1t is good those papers do not get
among the children, for we think they
would rebel in their infantine might
and GO for the writer "toOth and nail. !"
Among the older heads the approach
of Christmas is welcomed either with
Joy or lamentations. Prosperity makes
happiness at all times, but never more
so than at this season of the year. The
pleasure of gift -giving to those we love
ds one of the most gratifying sensations
possible to experience. Properly car
ried out. it helps to make the day more
cheerful and the hearts of others hap
by. And when you come to count
over your store of good things that
kind friends and relatives sh0wered
upon you with a lavish hand, don't let
the thought of some persons suffering
or in adverse circumstances be swal-
lowed up in the eiddy whirl about you.
This Is old. and possibly wearisome
advice, but nothing stands the test Of
time and repetition better than the
truth. Each one of you can surely
help to make one fireside brighter with
the donation Of some of your old things
or even new ones you don't want.
Candy and cake are plentiful In all
Well-furDished homes at Christmas,
and from the pantry few sweets will
not b. missed when they 60 to help

THE business interests of the country
want things to remain as they are.
They are not looking for war or rumors
of war. Let Cuba take care of herself;
this Government has its hands full

Peace and business security is what is
