HAS NO OPPOSITION.
Mrs. Anna Jeffers an Efficient State
Librarian.

Mrs. Anna letters. the present State
Librarian, who is candidate for reap
pointment under Governor Smith, has no
opposition so far. Mrs. letters has the
distinction and honor OF being the only
lady that holds State office, which re-
quires the confirmation of the Senate.
She was appointed four years ago by
Governor Lowndes, and succeeded COL
Luther H. Gadd, democrat.
Mrs. letters has made very success
full and efficient State Librarian, intro
ducing several important improvements
in the classification of books. She has
as her assistants Mr.. John Geoghan, an
experienced librarian, and MIR. Hugh r..
Riley, young lawyer of the Anne Arun-
del bar. 1t is generally conceded that
Mrs. Jeffers will have no opposition and
will. no doubt. be re-appointed. Why
shouldn't she? What man is there that
would oppose the reappointment of wo-
man who has so capably filled her posi-
tion? Perhaps Mrs letters strongest point
for re-appointment as State Librarian is
that her present position was made
through the recommendation of Col. J..
Walter Smith. the Governor-elect Of the
State of Mary yland. when he was State
Senator. Col. Smith having strongly rec.
commended The appointment of Mrs. Jef-
fers to Governor Lowndes.

No Work Being Done-Why Mrs. Jane
Baldwin Was Asked to Vacate.

AS the appropriation for indexing the
proceedings OF the Prorogative Court of
Province of Maryland, in the Register
OF Wills Office has been expended sever
al months ago, and as there is no work
being done there now, Register Palmer
asked Mrs. Jane Baldwin, who has been
doing this work, as she was not having
use for the office, to vacate it because it
is much needed for waiting room for
ladies. the widows and orphans, who
come there to register wills. and attend
to business pertaining to the Office, and
who often have to wait until the papers
are properly drawn up. Register Palmer
is bonded for 81 900, and as custodian
for the Office is responsible for all that it
contains.
The office held by Mrs. Jane Baldwin
while made by the Governor. was under
the supervision of Register of Wills
Baldwin, who appointed his daughter.
Register Palmer states he would not have
asked the lady to vacate the private Of
fice, but that no work is being done
there. the appropriation for same having
been exhausted several months ago.

A Good Appointment.

The Board of County Commissioners
made no mistake when they appointed
Mr.. Charles Himmelheber, clerk of the
Board. He is an old hand at the bel.
lows, having had many Yeas experience
as clerk and bookkeeper TO the Board of
School Commissioners, and made a most
efficient and painstaking official. Mr.
Himmelheber's quick perception fund OF
ideas, and familiarity with the local laws
OF the county that govern the action of
the Board. make him an invaluable
clerk to the Board. And in addition he
is polite and gentlemanly in his bearing.
and meets everyone with a smiling face.
He is an expert penman and his minutes
are the perfection OF neatness. No doubt
Mr.. Himmelheber will make one of the
most efficient clerks the Board of County
Commissioners has had in many years.
The CAPITAL congratulates Mr.. Himmel-
heber on his appointment. and the Board
on the acquisition Of such an Efficient and
capable clerk.

ENCOURAGEMENT N DEFEAT.
Secretary of The Navy Longs Kind
Letter to Admiral McNair.

Rear Admiral F. V. McNair, superin-
tendent OF the Naval Academy, is in re-
ceipt OF personal letter from Secretary
Long, in which he embodies his opinion
of the football game which took place on
Saturday at Philadelphia between the
Army and Navy. In the letter the Sec
retary says:
al hope you will say for me TO the
team that while they did not win, they
made gallant fight. and that it was es-
pecially gratifying to the department that
certainly so Tar as my observation went.
and so far as have heard from Others,
nothing could have been manlier or hand
somer, or in better spirit than the way in
which the two teams made their fight.
and the absence of any brutal, unbecom-
ing or ungentlemanly conduct was espe-
cially noteworthy. Tell them that the
department does not forget that they are
JUS, as brave, just as manly. just as faith
tul to their duty and have given lust the
same assurance that in whatever emer-
gency they are placed they will do every
thing in their power, as if they had won
the game on Saturday"

Kinley says,
1.-The Navy has maintained the spirit
and high efficiency which have always
characterized ;ha: service, and lost none
Of the gallantry in heroic action which
has signalized its brilliant and glorious
past. The nation has equal pride in its
early and later achievements. Its habitu-
al readiness for every emergency has
won the confidence of the administration
and of the country. The people are inter
ested in the continued preparation and
prestige of the navy and will justify
liberal appropriations for its maintenance
and improvement The officers have
shown peculiar adaptation for the per-
iormance of new and delicate duties
which our recent war has imposed"

Length Rather Than Strength
Pertinent Points of The

the Presidents messages grow in length.
President McKinley's message to Con-
gress yesterday is no exception. 1t is a
rehearsal of facts already within the
knowledge of the public.
II is a compendium OF plattudes and
contains little that is definite. IL is a
document which is Characteristic for pro-
lixity. rather than for diffuseness. The
President has sent to Congress a wealth
of history with dearth OF important rec
ommendation. II is such document as
might be expected from President Nc
Kinley the year before the presidential
election. The following are the pertinent
points in the message to Congress:
Maintenance Of gold standard must be
emphasized by new law.
Congress should authorize issue o. low
interest-rate when necessary to protect
public credit.
More iisorous laws should be passed
prohibiting trade combinations obnoxious
10 public weifare.N
Pledge OF independence to Cuba should
be sacrcdly observed.
Porto Rico should erjoy free trade with
this country. and form of local govern
ment provided for that island and Hawaii.
Protectorate in the Philippines not to
be considered. The sovereignty of this
country mus, continue. Believes great
mass OF Filipinos want it, He says
Until Congress shall have made known
the formal expression of its will | shall
use the authority vested in me by the
Constitution and the statutes to uphold
the sovereignty of the United States in
those distant islands as in all other places
where our flag rightiully floats.
Neutrality to the Angle Boer conflict.
Purchase of bonds with surplus in the
Treasury.
Establishment ofS25 900 national banks
again urged.
Greenbacks, once redeemed in gold,
should not be reissued, except for gold.
Government aid should be given to the
building of merchant marine.
Our foreign relations deal, with in de-
tail.
Nicaragua Canal should be built and
early action by Congress is urged.
Urges commission to study CONNER
cial and industrial conditions in China
with view of developing our trade there.
Advocates hearty cooperation in max
ing Paris Exposition success.
Says that no "entangling alliance"
have been or will be made with foreign
governments.
Suggests that Congress invite Germany
to JOIN in conference of scientific ex-
perts to determine purity of cur food ex-
ports.
Reviews work of settling pending dis
pute with Canada.
Urges law for punishment OF violation
Of treaty rights of aliens.
Urges cable to the Philippines.
Reviews reciprocity negotiations.
Indorses the Pan-American Exposition
to be held on the Niagara fontier in 1901.
Applauds the heroic work of the Army
and Navy and asks legislation that will
enable the Government to purchase ar
mor-plate for its new vessels.
Recommends new law respecting pen
sions of widows under Section : of the
Act OF June 77th, 1890.
President considering the advisability
OF sending another commission to the
Philippines.
Lynching should be severely punished.
Defends his Civil Service modification
order as in the interest Of efficiency.

FOOT BALL.
Annapolis vs.. Frederick.

Arrangements have been completed
by which representative Annapolis foot
ball team will play the team from Fred
erick, Md, on December 10th, at St.
Johns College grounds. This is the
first time that purely representative To-
cal team has played with team repre-
senting another city.
Frederick has very strong team. and
played tie game with the team of Mt.
St. Mary's College. Their captain, Mar
key, served with Company "a" First
Maryland Volunteer Infantry during the
service of that regiment. and so is we'll
known to many Annapolis boys. The
Annapolis team has already begun to
practice. and strong aggreg alton will be
produced. Among those who will try
are Messrs. Smith, H. Basil. Riley, w.
Holidayoke. McKenny. Parlett. James.
Henkel. Taylor, Burtis and others.
As this game is forerunner Of an at
tempt to organize regular team next
year, and as the locals are under heavy
expense in bringing the Frederick play
ers here, it is hoped that the patronage
will be large. The team may be played
as Y. NJ. c. A. team, and in that case
an effort will be made to have Burlin-
game, the old Annapolis athlete and Y.
NJ. c. A. man. in the game.
