The Presidents Policy?

him by the editor Of TIE CHRISTIAN

line Of the policy to be observed to.

ment when the campaign f

Tending the President from the attack
that have been made upon him. he
says:
'Nor is there the least intention ofsub.

tary efforts are directtd solely to the
preservation of law and urder there

Their political regen ration, with "A
view to giving them all the privileges
which thu territories of the Uni ed

In conclusion Secretary Long saws
that first of all it is the Presidents
policy to restore order in the Philip
pines, and that NEEDS all the energy
and ability at their command. After
that is accomplished then it will be
time to consider "self government" az

The Next Legislature.

A remarkably large number Of
the members of the General Az.
sembly of Maryland were appoint.
ed to Office after the adjournment
of the last session. The term ~
Office of all the members of the
House and Of half the Senate ey
pires next November and as theS
was never any probability Of an
extra session the appointments Of
such members had no special sig.
nificance. But one or more ofths
hold over Senators accepted an.
pOintmentS to other Office and
these may be important in thei,
results. Unless there is a pOliti.
cal tidal wave one way or the
other the next Senate will be very
close and from the present out.
look there is little likelihood of a
majority of more than one or two
for either party. There are
thirteen hold over Senators. OF
twelve exclusive of John Walter
Smith, who has been elected TO
Congress and will resign from
the Senate. OF these the Demo
Gratis have four, namely, Crothen
of Cecil; Applegarth, of Dorches
ter; BOuic, of Montgomery, and
Clagett, Of Prince Georges. Tie
Republicans have eight. namely,
Dick, of Allegany; Putzel, On
Baltimore City; Messick, of Caro-.
line; Gray, Of Charles; Ravens
croft, of Garrett; Williams, Of
Hartford; Wilkinson, ofSt. MaryS
and DOdSon, of Talbot. In order
to control the Senate of 1900 the
Democrats must elect 10 SenatOB
while it is only necessary for the
Republicans to elect four, unless
some of their hold over Senators
are lost by their acceptance of
office.

ED. WEgive space to the above COM
munication at the request of the
writer, but it comes trfe late to pro-
duce any other effect than n knowl-
edge of the facts set forth and the need
of caution in the use of the water. AS
we understand it, the idea is not to use
the water of Fishing Creek. unless
compe led to do so by shortness of
the supply from the present source.
Our last visit to Fishing Creek at the
point where it is intended to tap the
same, was in very warm weather, late
in summer, and the volume Of waite,
rushing down over the rocks seemed
sufficient to fill several twelve.inch
pipes with plenty to spare. We feel

spect the rights and wishes of tho. O
dependent upon the waters of Fishing
Creek for any purpose and will use
great care and judgment in the entire

Consul McCFum is on his way home
from Pretoria, and it is said he will
have important matters to lay before
the state department.. It seems that
he was on the best of terms with the
TransvasI officials and President Kru-
ger, and was not relieved because of
any friction It is limited that he
has matters Of such Importance to com
municste that he did not wish to dis
patch by cable as all cablegrams are
censored By the British. 1t is surmised
that he conveys a proposition from
President Kruger to aFbitrate the diff
6culties between Great Britain and
the Transvssl republic. It seems also
that other ENJOYS were dispatched to
European courts by way Of Lorenzo
Marquee, a Portuguese port, on the
same or a similar errand. If this is
the case, possibly, q truce may be agreed
to and the terrible war brought to q
close by arbitration aud terms accept

ton also. This would be the reason

Cities and fields walk; penetrate
Deserts and seas remote, and passing By

I knock, unbidden, once on every gate

And they who follow me reach every state
Mortals desire, and conquer every foe
Save death; but those who doubt or hesitate
COndsmned to failure, penury and woe
Seek me IN vain and uselessly implorei
I answer not, and return no more.
