Mr.. Newton s. Cook of Washington
county brought in a measure making radl-
c i changes in the public school manage
ment of the State. 1t provides that the
Governor shall appoint four persons
two from each of the leading political
parties and one of whom shall be resi-
dent of the Eastern Shore. These, with
the Governor and the principal ofthe State
Normal School, shall constitute
the State board of education. 1t also pro-
vides for the election of county COM
missioners by popular vote OF the several
counties To insure minority represen-
t,tion it provides that the county boards
shall consist of five members and the
leading parties can only nominate three
persons for the office This will give the
dominant party majority, with a minorl-
" representation of two members.

HON. VILLA ID. BOWL


HON. WILLIAM d. BOWIE.
William d. Bowie, holdover democrat
ic Senator from Prince Georges county,
named after his grandfather, who repre-
scented the same county in the House Of
Delegates and six years in the Senate of
Maryland, was born July 26, 1854, in Prince
Georges county He is the son of the late
Ex-Governor Bowie while his mother was
the daughter of the late Charles H. Carter,
his grandmother being the sister of the
late Hon. Charles B. Calvert, of Riverdale,
this county Mr.. Bowle's early education
was received under private tutors. He al
so studied al St Johns College, Annapo
lis After leaving college his father, de-
sirous of giving him the advantages of a
mercantile house of William Devries X Co.,
of Baltimore Here he remained until of
age, when, in addition to working farm
for himself, he superintendent his fathers
several farms, to which he devoted himself
assiduously. He frequently declined the
ten Ter of legislative nominations by the
democratic party until the fall of 1891,
when he was elected to the House of Del
egates by decided majority, leading the
ticket in the county. While in the Legis-
ature he served on several of the most
prominent standing committees.
Mr. Bowie is the third of his family in
direct descent to represent Prince Georges
county in the Senate of Maryland, his IA
ther having been Senator previous to his
election as Governor Of the State in 1861.
HON. WILLARD F. SCHOOLEY.
Willard Fillmore Schooley, of the House
of Delegates republican, was born March
9th, 1856, near Highland, Howard county,
but few miles from Laurel, his present
home He was farmers boy and educa-
ted at the public school of his district I'M
til he arrived at his ma jority. He engaged
in milling for nine years and moved to

all its workings. It makes the home q
sacredplace. Itmakes each one thouoht-
full of the rights of the other members
of the household. It creates a FEELING
OF common interest and common need.
making the family an indiyisible unit
working for the good of all,
In society it will break down the
barriers between rich and poor. It will
make the requirement for higher
society not Of financial but of
intellectual standing.
Altruism is the foundation principle
of every moral standard and every code
of laws. If perfectly developed in ma.
tional life it will adjust difficulties be-
tween different classes of citizens. It
will abolish Office seeking and political
wire pulling. 1t will build up a nation
that will last during all time and whose
influence will be felt throughout eter-
nifty.
Its principles are the same as those
expressed by Jehovah himself, when he
said thou shalt love thy neighbor as
thyself," 1t is the essence of all Chris
tian teaching and with the addition of
love to God is Il summary of the law
and prophets. To advance Christian
ity is to advance Altruism. To teach
CurlSIlau eUnlCS IS TO develop this AL
truistic spirit. Slow as this spirit
seems to be in it's advancement we can
see by looking into the past that it is
steadily increasing. The friendliness
which exists between nations, the in
terest taken in the suffering of Arme-
mia, the general tendency to settle all
international difficulties by arbitration
are evidences of it's advancement. It
should be the purpose of every true
citizen to make it the universal spirit
of the age. And when it shall have
come to hold supreme power over the
affairs of the world, then shall we have
the state of earthly blessedness spoken
of by The prophets of old. For then
shall nation no more lift up sword
against nation, neither shall they learn
war any more; then the wolf also shall
dwell with the lamb and the leopard
lie down with the kid; instead of the
thorn shall come upthe fir tree and in
stead of the briar shall come up the
myrtle tree: then shall the inhabitants
OF the rock sing and shout from the
top of the mountain. The people shall
be all righteous and inherit the land
forever.

in it's tendencies and would make
the qualification of selfish desires
and appetites the highest aim of life.
One tends toward good. The other
toward evil. One is .Altruism. The
other Egoism.
In the family where Egoism reigns
all is strife and contention. The
father has no care for the welfare of
his children except Sc far as his per-
sonal comfort is involved. He treats
them as his slaves, only useful as they
may save him timeand labor. Brother
strives against brother, seeking not the
good of the family but personal pleas
ure; not even permitting those around
him to be happy us long as he himself
is miserable.
1t is Egoism that causes the conten-
ton between capital and labor; that
makes the capitalist consider his m
ployees as 10 more to him than SO
many pieces of machinery that may be
replaced as soon as they wear out;
that makes the employee believe that
he is justified in stealing what time he
can from his employer so long as he is
not found out.
In nationallife the Affects still more
marked. Benedict Arnold, for the sake
of personal ambitions and hatreds, en-
tered into an agreement to betray his
country for gold. When at the death
of Edward The C~onfessor many per.
sons were declaring their right to the
crown of England, and when the forces
of Harold had been weakened by the
battle with Tostig. his own brother.
then it was that William the Conuueror
came over the Channel and Snbdned
England. Then the English crown
passed from the house of Goodwin to
the dukes of Normandy. 1t is an old
adage shat a house divided against it
self shall not stand" and we may assert
as truthfully that a nation composed
OF individuals who are trying to gain
for themselves fame or wealth, regard
less of the rights of those around them.
will as surely fall.
War comes directly from this spirit
of Egoism. War with all of it's pains
and sorrows! With all it's dangers and
anXieties! How many homes has it dcvas-
tated! How many family circles has it
broken! How many brave and useful
men has it taken away! And to what
avail? After all the bloodshed. all the
hardship, all the sorrows, the original
difficulty must be adjusted by those
who have had no hand in the conflict.
War is but a relic of the Dark Ages
and like slavery it will be abolished as
civilization and culture advances.
Altruism is opposed to Egoism in

can be nothing less than the strife of
war. But such q struggle must come
sometime; it is inevitable; the history
of the ace sho As it. Diplomacy can
not always settle either internal con.
ficts or the disputes of nations. We
forsee this struggle and all its horrors;
we use every energy to avert it but
efforts will be in vain.
Let us then not fail to see it's bless
ings; let us hope that it will give birth
to some American Leasing and that
present literature will be regener-
ated amid the stir of national events.
