TRAIN STRUCK A WAGON,
John Cunningham and His Son Narrowly
Escaped Death.

John Cunningham and his 5-year-old
son had narrow escape from death near
Newark on Friday afternoon. As he was
driving toward Stiger's farm on which he
is the tenant, Cunningham had occasion to
cross the Newark and Delaware City Rail
road at Wilson's crossing. lie did not
seem to be aware that the accommodation
train was approaching the station.
The result was that the engine struck
his wagon near the center and completely
cut off the back part of the wagon, re,
ducing it and the wheels to splinters
The child fell into the front part of the
wagon and was uniniured.
Cunningham was thrown out and re
ceived several severe bruises about the left
side and chest, The engineer and fireman
saw the team and felt as they approached
the crossing that sure death for the man
was certainty.

High License Question.

As representative of the WING, who is
an up-to-date anti-license man. I have been
asked by number of citizens of Elkton
II believe in the high license bill that
would go into force should the liquor vote
defeat the Temperance vote this fall lam
not In love with rum license at all. II
there is to be liquor license system again
in Cecil won't it be serious ouest;o,
whether the restricted high license bill has
any advantage over the low license and
unlimited law of the past am inclined
to believe with past experience in this
county, that what we pay for we prize and
that the saloon keeper who is in the busi-
ness to make money must make up from
the public for his increased license, but il
he cannot increase the price Of drink ex-
cept at loss of custom he must increase
his custom, hence high license and re-
strcted law of such nature as will 90 in
force next fall in Cecil county. Should the
law be victorious it will stimulate the
liquor business, and the increased Ii
cense paid by the liquor seller is balanced
by the increase in list of liquor consumers;
in other words the liquor seller depends
upon the consumer to literally compensate
him for the license he has paid to the local
treasury, and of course the liquor seller
has to look to the law for the protection of
his business. The more profitable it be-
tho l. Ia, g.,
and the more ardent a politician he be-
comes. And as his business is evil its in =
tluence upon him is demoralizing and his
influence in politics is evil.
The restricted high license bill, there
fore, will stimulate liquor activity in
politics. Should it win and 20 into force
it will increase the power of the rum
monopoly. 1t will make the business safe
and permanent in that it intrenches it be-
hind the cupdity of the capitalists. Cap
italists will feel safe to invest therein.
Not only the liquor lords, but the brewers
and distillers, will combine their forces
and erect palaces in other States by plum
dering the pockets of the people of this
county.
What right have few rum mills to stand
up before the many loyal citizens of old
Cecil and ask for the suffrage of her people
to license public nuisance to satisfy an
unjust craving for liquor. Crush
the rum business and keep it out Of
old Cecil. SEP.

participate At recent meeting of the
Post the following resolution was passed -
