Justly Indignant.

Says the Middletown Register: The
patrons of the Myersville postoffice are
Justly indignant over q movement to
do away with the star mail route be-
tween that place and Hagerstown,
which is to go into effect on July LIST.
They blame J. G. Boring, of Ken
lucky, who contracted to carry the
mail for $27S, as being greatly respon-
sible for the move. A petition is being
circulated among the patrons of the
Smoketown and Beaver Creek offices
to have the route done away with.
By the new schedule the mail leaves
Myersville at 6 a. M, and returning
leaves Hagerstown at 3 pm, the same
time at which the present mail to
the Beaver Creek and Smoketown Of
fees leave that city, and the difference
will only be matter of about 80 or
45 minutes in the morning mail

Change of Sentiment.

DR.. Charles H. Rose, a well-known
physician of Talbot County, in CONVEX
sation in Baltimore recently, said
among other things, that the senti-
ment in Talbot has materially changed
since last fall, when the Republicans
carried the county. and that the Dem
ocrats will probably elect the local
ticket this year, provided good men are
nominated for the offices. In regard
to Senator German, he says that many
of those who have heretofore been OPP
posed to the Senator now think that
his supremacy is to be preferred to that
of Senator Wellington, aud that in
making the change the people have
not bettered the situation in the least.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1897-05-14
Breed Only to the Best.

We have stated on several occasions
that there were fewer young colts in
the county this year than ever known
before. Many farmers, owing to the
decline in horses, have stopped breed
ing. Yet, with all the talk of low
prices, who has not been able to dis
pose of first-class horse at a good sum
during the past two years? Good
horses to-day are in demand. Scrubs
are of no account and bring only scrub
prices. If our farmers are going to
breed this year let them breed only
their best mares and then breed to the
best horses in the county. Do not
breed to an inferior horse at any price,
it is simply waste of time and money.
