RIDING AT NIGHT.
Roads Are Then Clear, and the Evenings
Beauties Charm the Cyclist.

Roads Are Then Clear, and the Evenings
Beauties Charm the Cyclist.
With bell, lantern and disposition
to ride moderately 1.-The night rider is as
safe as aud perhaps little safer than
the day rider. Streets and roads are
practically clear of teams and the in
ability to see the minute details of
grade, surface, etc., leaves the rider
comparatively free from nervous strain.
Hills are easier climbed or descended
and bad places in the road are more
readily got over by night than by
day. This may sound paradoXical to
those who have not tried it, but it is a
fact. Beginners are liable to feel tilnid
at the start, but soon find themselves
proceeding with confidence unknown
to their daylight ventures. 1t is only
necessary to have light to give warn
ing of your presence and to ride slowly
in order not only to feel safe but to be
safe.
Night riding has its own peculiar
destinations, it matters not whether
there be electric light, moonlight, star
light or no light. "How beautiful is
night" exclaims Southey. Confirmed
night riders fully understand the poet
inspiration. A good many would be
riders do not become cyclists because
they have no leisure for much riding in
the daytime. Let these consider the
pleasures Of cycling between dusk and
dawn. A little experience will bring
them to full agreement with Tom
Moore, who says:
The best of all ways
TO lengthen our days
Is to steal few hours from the night.

Want.Stornge Room.

Members of the Produce Exchange,
New York, who have bicycles are cir
culating petition to the board of man
agement requesting that space be al
lotted to them for the storing of wheels.
Some of the members suggest facetious-
ly that bicycle track be built in the
main hall of the building, so that bro
kers who ride down to business may
continue the exercise in trading hours.
1t is proposed that the track be near
the wheat pit, thus enabling brokers tc
make bids as they pedal around the
room.-New York Press.

ANUNHOLY ALLIANCE.

The Republican factions in this
county have apparently reconciled their
differences, and will have but one ticket
upon the official ballot. The reconcil-
iation is formal, but we doubt if it is
sincere The compromise was brought
about through the influence Of outside
politicians, and there must necessarily
be some disappointments and resent
ments. Dr. Ryon, for instance, who
has friends and relatives, numerous
and influential, has been made to give
way to Capt. Gordon-and nothing
but The nerve and determination of the
latter caused it. Mr. Mudd, it is true.

and former ally, gains chance off elect

plays winning game again, i'll giving
one to win three, and it will be Il sur

allowed to get into q position in which
he can injure his former rival and i'm

"But what do we find? On top Of the

nominated their own ticket, discarded

the national administration which their

THE FARMER AND THE NEW
ASSESSMENT.

We publish on our fourth page this
week an article under the authority
of the Maryland Democratic Editors
Association, showing how the Repub-
licans failed to keep their promises in
the matter of the new assessment.
Taxpayers are finding out, when it Is
too late, that under the present law
wealth still escapes its just proportion
of the public expense, and real prop
ertv, particularly farming lands, is IN
duly burdened' Many of our people
have already realized this to their sor-
row when they went to pay their tax
bills. Only the most experienced and
successful farmers can make the!!
farms pay six per cent, yet they arc
ASSESSED at their cash yaiue, while bonds
certificates ofindebtedness or evidences
of debt. bearing six per cent. inter- s.
as provided ili-thc main act, were to be
assessed at half their value. y sup
Elemental act was passed III reference
to this sliding scale" of assessment
which has caused considerable doubt
and uncertainty rs to the meaning o1
the law. and consequently injustice has
been the result in many cases. One
thing. however. is certain and that is
that real property is still undrly bur.
dened..
Nearly a half million Of dollars, the
new assessment cost the State. W bat
have our people gained by this sample
of the ''wise and economic administra-
ton of the Republicans!

ANNEX ALTON CERTAIN.

\ special dispatch to the Baltimore SIN
from Boston, Mass, quotes Senator Lodge
as saying: Il look upon the annexation of
the Hawaiian Islands as practically accom-
plished The treaty will be taken up when
Congress assemblies in December, and
think there is an easy majority in the Sen
ate in favor of its ratification.
IF it should appear probable that an
opposition is developing to defeat ratitica-
ton the remedy will be simple. There is
IA Joint resolution for annexation of the is
lands on the calendar, which does not re.
quire two-thirds majority, as is the case
III the vote for ratification Of a treaty. A
simple ma ority in both houses will accom-
plish the same result, and that majority
we have easily. If it appears probable
that ratification may fail we shall simply
slip in the resolution and act upon that i'll
place of the treaty"
What are your views as to Il form of
government for the islands after anneXa-
tion:" was asked.
1t is entitled that we do not care to
admit Hawaii as state in the Union" re-
piled the senator. Some form of terri
torial government must be adopted but
exactly what it should be is not vet wholly
clear.
Il am inclined to think that we should
give Hawaii form of government rather
broader that the ordinary territorial GOV
eminent. For example, | should give the
islanders power to continue their legisla-
tive body in two branches, whereas, | be
lievc territory has merely IA single
house \ Legislature in two houses will
give them government similar to oul
states, but they will not have the power
to elect senators in Congress.
The system of federal courts must, OF
course, be extended to the islands, will

courts may be retained as the people de
