The Transcript has neither changed
its religion nor its politics. Whi.e it
will not be bigoted in the cne, it will
seek TO be fair and honest in the

desire the support and good will Of all,
but will not sacrifice self respect nor
principle to get it.-MiddletoWn Tran

The newspaper man has friends
and they are most unostentaticus--
who, whenever possible, have some
thing for the little note book; who are
not afflicted with the false notion that
to mention their own dOings Is i'm
modest who do not try to have the
reporter write" as humOr other peO-
pies failings; who remember that a
newspaper is a public institution that
benefits all, rich and poor, aristocratic
and humble, equally, and who know
that the public plust do what it can
to help. These are the people the
newspaper man calls blessed,
that he favors every time
in preference TO the Kicker who
finds fault and never helps-Seaford

Any man who votes the Union Re
publican ticket casts a vote in aiding
a man to get into the United States

The awful habit of cursing and
swearing is being contracted by the
boys OF Chestertown as they loaf about
the streets at night Parents, are you
looking after the early training of
your boys? AS the twig is bent 50 the
tree is inclined.-Kent News.
The Crisfeld Leader in its issue of
last week devoted about two columns
of its space to denouncing the new
oyster law passed by the last Legisla-
ture. The editor says the law is un-
just oppressive, and was a scheme pure
and simple for the Democrats to make
places for their henchmen at the eX-
pense Of the poor oystermen. How the
Leader man does love those poor oyster
men.-Crisiield Times.
Our town is growing more in favor
every day. We always have known its
merits, but this had but little effect
upon the outside world however-Port

The importation Of American grain
into Germany continues to be the
sharpest and deepest thorn in the flesh
of that ultra-cOnservative, not to say
roactionary, German political party
the members of which are recruited
chiefly from the landed gentry and are
known as Agrarians. Despite the vehe-
ment assertions OF these land owners
that their country is going to the dogs
because American grain continues to
find ready sale in Germany, the millers
of that country calmly continue to
purchase their supplies in the cheap
est market.-Centreville Record.
The Antl-Bribery League Of De,a-
ware should not delay in the prosecu-
tion OF their work. If effective ser
vice is to be rendered the people OF
this state, their representatives and
agents should be placed in every dis
trict to detect the methods used in
furnishing funds for the registration OF
voters.-Delaware Pilot.
The special interest felt in the cleo
ton of the president naturally tends
to dwarf other matters of Importance
connected with the election. But the
voters everywhere should not fail to
remember that the election Of con-
gresham is second in Importance to
that of the president, and there is
great danger that the Republicans
may lose control of the next House OF
Representatives even though McKin.
ley might be reelected by a large ma
iority.-Dorchester Era.
