Road Petitioners Notice.


A party of influential gentlemen of Fred
erick county have organized a company for
the purpose of building an electric road be-
tween Frederick and Emmitsburg via Thur
mont and will at once apply for charter
through the Mary land Legislature, to enable
them to begin at once the construction Of
the road
The well known integrity and business
standing of those having the matter In charge
is most conclusive of the intention to push
the matter from the start to successful
issue
In the selection of those having the enter
prise in charge, only those have been Sc
lected who are recognized as the best quail
fed to give of their time, means and talents
to the enterprise. 1t is confidently beloved
by those interested in the movement that
the project is not only possible but that the
road when built will be one Of the very best
in the State, passing as 1t will through the
most densely populated section ofthe comfy
comprising as it does the wealthy industry
and thrift which will necessarily bring to the
road that increment 50 necessary to the well
being of any enterprise
1t Is the intention of these gentlemen, II
the road meets with the suCce! anticipated
to extend 1t to the historic battle fields OF
Gettysburg
When the Frederick and Mlddletown rail
road was being built people predicted that
its existence would be of short duration, but
to the surprise of all, it has grown to be a
paying investment and the holders of the
stock are unwilling to sell unless ~ a fabu
lous sum.
This enterprise will be paying invest
ment for those who are fortunate enough tc
subscribe tor the stock and The Guide desires
to impress upon the uninterested the i'm
portsnce of seizine a good thing when II
presents itself. ..'.
We predict for this new project success
full future, and wish the gentlemen interested
nothing but success.-Guide

AT q time when home affairs had grown
dullish, The Guide under new editc rial man.
agement came to the relief OF a most dis
trcssing condition of ennui in the local jour
naistic world and lay ing hold upon good
thing thus seemingly cast up before us, we
set about making the most of it. Little did
we think then that such serious results
would accrue. There was ample room for
criticism where is there not-and in the
spirit of humor we set about getting all out
of it that was in it, Had we been more of y
philosopher and less disposed tc have good
time, we should have, likely, foreseen the sad
result Had we weighed the matter" that
appeared in the first issue of The Guide and
not simply tossed it about, we should have
been more discreet more generous, than TO
have attracted attention to its manifest lack
OF specific gravity.
No. we have not laid the charge Of ignor.
ance against the editor Of The Guide, despite
the statement in its columns that we have
done so we had no thought of doing so
we did not think it, nor have we said any
thing that may be 80 construed and he is
very unwise to affirm it SO categorically of
himself.
We decline to play the part of Sexton
while he assumes the role of Dogberry. We
fill utterly when we endeavor to conceive
the frame of mind in which one finds himself
when he consents to write of himself thus
pleading guilty to the charge Of ignorance
incompctency and infancy" nor 10 we un
derstand that faculty whereby one acquires
a moral sense that "envies a man who
detects frailties and fails to see his own" but
that is probably sarcasm; 1t is very difficult
10 determine, yet-yes, that is probably sar.
casnl.
Not content with the confessions referred
TO above, we find the editor of The Guide to
be self confessed reprobste; speaking of
himself, he prefers ''tbe coil tenor of his way"
Withdrawing 10 most pernicous thing,
but an open choice of evil is an unusual shib
boleth; it may be trusty password but to
what realm of society, it were best left i'm.
agined.
To say one plays the baby act" is figure
of speech and 1t has been lett to the editor Of
The GUIDE to remove it from that classified
ton and place 1t upon the solid basis of
reality. We understand it to be not undig
nifed to confess ~ have erred" orthodox to
confess II have sinned," genteel to subscribe
"your humble servant" and not unbccoming
to profess humility in many ways, but I'VE
nisad guilty to the charges Of ignorance
ncompetancy and infancy is unequivocal
definite and prosaic-"the baby act" no
longer figure of speech, but real tangible
entity; it has put this matter upon a plane
below that in which we have been accus.
toned to move.
We fear that in our quest for little fun
we have, unwittingly. done some harm; we
shall never cease to regret it, if the humiia
ting confession that we have wrung him,
should be accepted at its face value by his
readers; we anticipated no such outcome of
our first bit Of extravagant criticism, or our
wholesome respect for the Society P. G. A
would have stayed our hand.

WHEAT RAS TUMBLED

WHENCE THEIR RHETORIC2

Notwithstanding the Fact the Ding,cv

OnC) Debts with sixty-Cent Wheat.
Why have the Republican editors
fallen silent on the great question Of
wheat? What has become Of the Ding
ley bill--its vast influence in booming
wheat up to and beyond the dollar
mark? Wherefore are the Republican
orators mute on the enormous wealth
gathered by the horny handed sons Of
toll who worked the farms while the
Dingley confidence men worked the
farmers? Whence have flown the tur.
gid pages of rhetoric about the mort.
gage lifting power Of the advance
agent Of prosperity? All these queries
are pertinent since the famine in India
has ceased, since the crops of wheat for
| 1898 have been estimated, since the
corner in our great cereal has been
broken and since the price of wheat
has tumbled down hill faster than it
ever climbed up hill. If anybody has
ever been fooled by the unblushiDg g
effrontery of the claim that the Repub-
lican party has anything to do with
raising the price Of wheat, now is the
time to repent, confess and receive alb
solution. Wheat has tumbled, though
the Dingley bill has not been repealed
and in spite Of the fact that the Repub-
lican administration at Washington
