Yellowstone Park.

The Yellowstone National Park is UNI
questlonably the most interesting region
on the globe, for within it is displayed the
greatest collection of natures manifold
wonders. Indeed, this mountain bound
plateau, high up on the summit of the
everlasting Rockies, is veritable play
ground for the worlds giant forces. To
stand and gaze upon them in all their mar
velous manifestations, the great geyser
upheavals, the fierce steam blasts, the ter
rible leap of the river, and the awful can
on, is revelation, an experience to be
had at no other point on the earth.
The personally conducted tour of the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company, which
leaves New York on September End, af-
fords the most satisfactory means of visit
ing this wonderland and viewing its mar
velous features. Tourists will travel by
special train of Pullman smoking, dining,
sleeping, and observation cars in each di-
rection. Eight days will be spent in the
Park Stops will also be made returning
at St. Paul and Chicago. The round-trip
rate, 1926 from New York, Philadelphia
Baltimore, and Washington, $3.50 from
Pittsburg, covers all necessary expenses

MIR. MUDD'S METHODS.

The Republicans of this county I'M
der the leadership of Congressman
Mudd have, indeed, gotten themselves
into a middle. The result is the natu-
raj consequence of evil practices. The
time has come when it behooves all
who have the best interests Of the
county at heart and who are opposed
to such practices as those introduced
here at the late Republican primaries,
to unite for the protection Of our fair
name, to say nothing of the protection
of our homes and tiresides. No state,
or people, or community can be pros
porous or happy long, that will toler-
ate such abuses as now exist in local
Republican politics. Law and order
must be upheld; and we believe, there
are amongst us enough loyal people,
both white and colorcd, to crush out
the threatened ab,scs regardless Of
past political affiliations or future con-
tingencies. As sample of the talk
now heard on every side, we give place
to the following from the Baltimore
Neps, being an interview with promi-
nent State official:
''Mr Mudd is evidently determined to
. control all the nominations III that section
of the State, no matter what may be the
cost. He is now working to carry St.
Mary's county in the same manner that
he carried, or claims to have carried,
Prince Georges county. He is opposing
Senator Wilkinson in his contest for re-
nomination, because Mr. Wilkinson has
declined to support him for the United
States Senate. He is also putting up 3
ticket for the House of Delegates in St.
Mary's, and is using all his strength to
nominate it. He has reused the Republi
cans of that section to such pitch of in
dignation by his course that all those
counties are in great danger of being car
ried by the Democrats at the general cleo
ton.
"A movement is on foot to have the
Prince Georges primaries investigated by
the State Convention, and new primaries
ordered to be held under the direction of
an impartial commission, to be selected by
the chairman of the State Convention
The plan is to have both the tickets now
in the field Withdrawn, and have a primary
held in such manner that there can be
no doubt as to its fairness. As it stands
now, there is absolutely no hope for the
Republicans in Prince Georges. The
primary was disgrace to the State. The
ballot boxes were stuffed in the most braz-
en- manner. The opponents of Mudd were
given no show whatever. They had no
representation, and the corruption and
bribery were disgracefully open. Voters
were bought like sheep, and there was no
attempt at decency. Mudd himself was
on the ground for several days in advance
of the election, directing things, and when
his alleged convention met, he was there
in person to boss the job. Decent, self
respecting citizens had no show whatever,
and this man from another county came
into our county and rode rough-shod over
us all. All the best elements of the party
were on our side

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON, D. c., August 9th.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. August 9th.
MR. ED1ToR:-There are many opinions
as to why John Sherman should have re-
turned to Washington and taken charge
of the State Department at this time.
Some say that the old man intends to
make a fl ht to knock out the Hanna Nc
Kinley plan of kicking him out of the Cab
| met after the Ohio election; others that he
| has scheme of his own to get even with
| the administration for the treatment he
has received by getting it into some new
foreign complication, but the generally
| accepted idea is that he is in Washington
solely to enjoy bossing the State Depart
ment, privilege that is denied HIM When
Mr.. Mckinley and Assistant Secretary
Day are in town. Mr.. Sherman's virtual
Acknowledgement of his ignorance OF the
nature of the instructions given to Minis
ter Sewall concerning Hawaii is proof OF
how little he knows Of the important part
of the foreign policy of the administration.
Mr. Day has had exclusive charge OF all
matters relating to Hawaii and Cuba.
Mr.. John w. Foster, the gentleman who
is credited with having written the in
structions to Ambassador Hay that were
signed by Mr.. Sherman, has returned from
his sealing mission to Europe. He says it
was successful; Prof. Elliott, of the Smith
sonian Institution, says it was flat fail
ure. Which of them is right will not be
no int
ference, which meets in Washington next
October, shall have been held.
The Spanish Minister has only to tip
the wink TO the Secretary of the Treasury
to put all of the machinery of the United
States Customs Service to work at tillibus-
ter hunting His latest was an allegation
that arms were about to be shipped from
Bridgeport, Conn, or Whereabouts, to the
Cubans. Special orders were at once sent
to all the officers of the Customs Service
in that vicinity to turn themselves into
detectives to please the Spanish Minister.
OF course every man has right to have
and express an opinion upon subjects be-
fore the public, and yet opinions may be
expressed in such way as to make man
appear to be gloating over the misfortune
of something that he opposes, which causes
them to strike most people as being in bad
taste, or even worse. To the latter class
belong the publicly expressed opinion of
Mr.. Preston, Director Of the United States
Mint, on the decline in the price of silver.
With the usual gall of the know-it-all MIR.
Preston tells the public not only that he
knew the decline in price was coming but
that he knows the decline is going to keep
on until the price gets down to forty cents
an ounce. The belief is irresistible that
Mr.. Preston's talk represents his wishes
rather than his knowledge on this subject.
Not little joking has followed the
naming of the new submarine torpedo
boat, which small party of officials went
over to Baltimore to see launched from
the Columbian Iron Works. Teddy"
Roosevelt, who is always trying to do
something out of the common, christened
the boat "Plunger."

DELEGATION OF FARMERS.

Monday delegations of farmers from
Dorchester and Charles counties visited
4, the Maryland Agricultural College and
Experiment Station on the invitation Of
President r. w. Sylvester. This is the
first time in the history of the college that
the Eastern Shore has sent a delegation to
inspect the college, and also the first visit
of farmers from the State south of this
county.
The Dorchester Farmers Club was rep
resented by T. H. Hopkins, H. LIE Compile,
T. T. Woolford, N. Van Dyne, Jas. Hub
bard Wilbur Jones and George A. Mace.
The Bel Alton Farmers Club, of Charles
county, sent Samuel Cox, Jr., president,
Perry Wilmer. W. B. S. Chapman, P. r.
Wills, F. H. Wills, A. l. Lyon, G. F. Abel,
J. B. Jarboe, J. P. Hamilton, V. H. Neale
and P w. Robey.
IT. Ballcnger, of St. Mary's county,
one of the foremost tobacco growers of
Southern Maryland, was also present.
The visitors first called upon Director
R. H. Miller, of the experiment station,
and were shown the many experiments
being carried on there.
After luncheon, served in the chapel,
the visitors inspected the various features
of the farm. Mr. Samuel Cox, Jr. made
speech expressing the satisfaction the
delegation had experienced and President
Sylvester responded. He said the expert
ment station had done more to revolution
ize farming in certain sections of Mary
land than all other agencies combined.

TOBACCO WAREHOUSE MAN.
AGEMENT.

The Baltimore San says: THE re-
port of Colonel Tompkins, accountant,
to Governor Lowndes of the results of
his examination Of the accounts and
methods of State tobacco warehouses
Nos. 3 and 5 make mighty interesting
reading showing discrepancies be-
tween facts and sworn official
reports, want of correspondence be-
tween payments shown in time-books
and in pay-rolls, fictitious employees, il
legal over-payments, careless methods,
omissions, political assessments and !,
muddled state OF things generally.
Worse mismanagement of Il business
could hardly be imagined. The exam
nation has not been concluded, but the
results SO far 90 to show that it was
not undertaken a day too soon"

NHE OBJ ECT of this proceeding is to
l. procure a decree for the sale of the
real estate of which certain Elizabeth X.
Lowe late of SAID county, died, seized and
possessed for the purpose of paying her
creditors.
The Bill states in substance that said
Elizabeth r. Lowe was, in her lifetime,
indebted unto the complainant as well as
other persons; being indebted to the COM
rlainant in the sum of $l12.O on an open

and nieces, viz: William, James Catherine,
Marian and Anna Lowe, children of her
deceased brother, Daniel G. Lowe; and
appointed John H. Lowe to be sole Execu-
tor of her will.
That said Executor qualified as such
and took possession of her said estate
the personal estate being small and insult
ticient to pay her debts. That said Tesla
| tor died, seized and possessed of certain
real estate in Spaldings District in said
county, containing two and eight-tenths
acres (2s l0) AS will appear by deed re-
corded Among the land records of said
county, and which is filed with the bill as
Exhibit E. r. L. That the said personal
estate is insufficient to pay her just bebts

which iS oonai6nra h1o opA tho 6ofi
in the personal estate ought to be supplied
by sale of the realty or as much thereof
| as may be necessary to pay said debts,
| costs, etc.
That the said William. James, Gather
| inc, Marian and Anna Lowe are non-resi-
| dents of the State of Maryland.
The bill then prays for decree for the

| be necessary to pay said debts.
For warrant for the appraisement of
| said real estate and for general relief
1t is tI,ereupon, this 3rd day of August,

THE MURDER OF CANOVAS.

Anarchists in Spain, says the Philadel'
phia Times, have passed by the child King
and the gracious Queen Regent, for whose
personal safety honest Spaniards have Of
ten felt concern, to strike down the re-
sponsible head of the State, the very able
and patriotic Prime Minister, Canoyas del
Castillo. Assassination seeks a shining
mark, and Canovas is the foremost Span
lard of his generation, combining liberal
impulses with constitutional conserva-
tism that has made him the strongest bull
wark of the existing government.
He has been in public life continuously
for more than forty years, and has proved
himself a statesman of high purpose and
great skill. He extricated the nation from
the confusion following the revolution of
1868 and for quarter of a century his
leadership has been acknowledged, though
opposed by the Burbon party on the one
hand and the more advanced Liberals and
revolutionists on the other. For the
greater part of this time he has been at the
head of the government, though in recent
years he has alternated frequently with
Sagasta, the rival leader, who will pre-
sumably profit, for the moment, by the
crime of Sunday.
1t is impossible, however, to predict the
effect of this assassination upon Spanish
politics in the present critical situation.
Canovas, by the force of his character and
experience, has been great conservative
force, even where his difficulties appeared
insurmountable, and Sagasta has always
been able to rely upon his loyalty. But
Sagasta's own following is hard to handle,
while there will be no one to hold together
those VINO followed Canovas, and the Cor
ties is very likely to be thrown into confu-
sion, with the whole nation, impoverished,
discouraged and disordered, trembling on
the verge of revolution. This time the
victim seems we'll chosen for the 1cvelish
purposes of Anarchy.

According to the lowest estimates
the corn crop this year will be about
100000 bushels. With short
grain crops abroad we ought to be able
to market the surplus from such crop
at much sitter rates than we have been
able to get for crops of 2,0o0,oo0,0o0
bushels and over. Corn is so hard to
handle that it is easily possible to get
larger cash returns from Il moderate
crop than from one which breaks the
racorl
