photographic POINTERS.

| Mckinley waited until too laae
to be of service to the South African
republics, and then made his offer OF
mediation in such way as to invite
rejection by Englan6.-Press Bulletin.
There will be no relief from the
TobbeT trusts until the people turn out
the rascals who enact laws licensing
these cormorants to indulge in CON-
mercial plunder and who render mop
erative and useless statutes enacted TO
put a check on their inordinate greed
and soulless observation-disclosures City
Times.
Mr. Hanna's idea is that republic
an upponlarity can be cured by large
campaign fund. This great statesman
has large surprise in store for him
this fall. He has never seen the Amer
lean people engaged in settling moral
issue at the ballot box, and he will be-
hold that spectacle this year.-Atlanta
Constitution.
DO you know any reason why
the government of the United States
should take away your money, under
the cover of bounty payments. and give
il 10 another? And that other man al
ready rich? This is the ship bounty
scheme. Going further, do you know
any reason why government should
take away your money, under cover of
projections" in any form, and give it
to another? = Portland Oregonian
(Rep.).
THE republican party, strive as
it may against the tide, must either
abandon protection or abandon ex-
pansion. The two policies are incom-
patible. In the endeayor to reconcile
individual greed with national growth
the party is making itself the mock of
the world. it has apparently assumed
responsibilities which it is incapable of
rightfully discharging. 1t will have
stern settlement to make when it shall
agin appeal to the country for vote
of confidence.-Philadel Record.
Nobody has any right to be sur
prised at the potency of the tariff and
trust machines with the president and
congress. The present is machine
administration. It is the unremitting
work of the machines, under the skill
full, audacious and lavish management
of Mr.. Hanna, that makes Mr.. Mckinley
formidable for denomination. The
sentiment of the country is against
him, but the organization has gone SO
far that il is almost impossible to make
Roadway against it. Cincinnati En-
quirer.
We have made most deplorable
departure, under this administration,
from tie international policy that
made US the greatest and most enviea
of nations. We are apparently ON the
eve of Imperialism We threaten the
attempt to assimiiate an empire and a
republic. We have served notice IN
the world that we think more OF pra-
lection than of our boosted love of
human liberty and equality. II thk
be done, we shall have forfeited the
moral right TO insist that the mann
tenance Of republics in South and
Central America must not be intrr-
fered With by the powers of the old
world. We are deliberately inviting all
sorts Of trouble-Detroit Free Press.

the colored children, for it gives them
a good opportunity and good excuse
to eat eggs, and there is nothing they
like better. Preparatory to an en-
counter, each little fellow tests the
hardness of his egg by knocking it
against his teeth. If it can stand this
test it is considered a good one for
picking, and the owner sallies forth
with a broad grin; confident Of sue
cess. The boz who owns a goose egg
or turkey egg is a prince among his
fellows. Occasionally such a boy APP
pears. In all probability his shoes are
torn, his clothes are patched, and his
woolly head is adorned with an anti
quated and mcth-eaten fur cap. But
he could be no prouder nor command
greater respect if he were adorned
with regal robes. He is Immediately
surrounded and followed wherever he
goes by baTG of admirers, who adopt
him as their champion and defy any
body to pick an egg with him.

in, Martha" he said, awkwardly. "You
said you wanted to look at some car
petin', ano say, whilst you are about it.
l guess you'd better pick out a new
dress and some Easter fxin's. That
bunnit you've got on looks sort o.
ragged"
"Oh, Lcn," the little woman came
near transfxing the entire street by
throwing her arms around his neck
then and there, but he opened the door
hastily.
Get all you want, Martha, and I'll
foot the BILL" he said. I'm going
down to the tailor shop, for if we go
to that Easter meeting we want to look
leetie mite as other folks do
Martha's heart sang for joy all the
way home, for wasn't there roll of
the 1oveliest carpet she had ever
dreamed of possessing under the seat,
and in her lap a bonnet and dress pat
tern which she would not trust out OF
her own hands?
Little things enough to make heart
glad in view of the wondrous message
of the Eastertide, still to the starving
just the crumbs must be fed until they
can bear the stronger meat. That fol-
lowed later, as Martha's heart opened
up to the beautiful Easter service, as
flowers open their thirsty cups to the
warm rain.
Mr.. Dewey, too, saw something in life
which he had never seen before, hope
beyond the sordidness of everyday
care, which lifts the spirit on Invisible
wings into the realm of the unseen.
Life at the Dewey farmhouse was
never again the same routine Of dali,
unidentified labor, and Martha is
growing young again.-Mrs.F f. NJ. How
ard, in Chicago Standard.

Congress and the Territories.

The Chicago Post. discussing the Repubh-
can contention that the power Of Congress Is
absolute in the Territories, says that II our
Territories hold their liberties by grace OF
Congress that bod : is in "A position To repeal
its legislation at uay time and deprive New
Mexico. Arizona. Alaska and possibly the
District of Columbia, OF all of their conShtu-
tional rights.
The Republicans. says the Post, do not find
any sanction or warrant IN the decisions OF the
Supreme Court for their theories. "On the
contrary states the Post, every case winch
involved the operation of the Constitution IN
our Territories has been decided the other
way. For example, can Congress prohibit
the free exercise of religion in the Territories
Undoubtedly, if it is omnipotent and IN no
wise bound by the Constitution IN leglsiahng
for Territories. But what does the Supreme
Court say Ina Utah case that tribunal SAID
Congress cannot pass law for the govern
ment of the Territories which shalt prohibit
the free exercise of religion. The first amend
ment 10 the Constitution expressly torhlds
such legislation. Here we have plain dec
laration that the first amendment applies TO
Territories as well AS to States. II the hrst,
certainly the second, the third and all the
amendments.
Take the question of trial by jury in Terri
tories Can an act be passed dong away with
unanimous verdicts in Territories No, says
the Supreme Court. In our opinion the
seventh amendment secured unanimity IN
finding a verdict as an essential feature OF trial
by Jury in common law cases. The act OF
Congress could not impart the power to change
the constitutional rule aud could not be treated
as attempting to do so.' In another case the
ttf,ar. declared that the constitutional prov-
sion in relation to trial by jury applies to Ter
ritories and is no longer an open question. !"

which Is among the graudest of this country.
The natural sights of interest which abound
in Carroll and Frederick counties alone are
far superior To many scenes which have been
gwen much space "a the Geography Of the
United States. Take for instance the village
aud surrounding country OF Gaylorsyille, iu
this county This village Is situated on one
Of the highest points Of PARIS Ridge, which
originates in Virginia, follows parallel with
the Atlantic coast, and ruus through Mary
land, Pennsylvania and New Jersey, aud
terminates near the city OF New York, into
what is known as the Palisades. Standing
anywhere ia this village you may view the
Blae Ridge Mountains On the western side,
between this ridge and the Blue Ridge Noun
tains lies one OF the most beautiful valleys in
the state Then letting the eye gradually fall
vou view the head waters of Talbot Greek,
which flows through the narrow but beautiful
Talbot Valley. in which is some of the most
fertile land Of our state.
This stream has It's head waters far upon
the side OF PARIS Ridge, in fact very near the
top of the ridge 1t makes its way through
valley of rustic beauty for about three miles,
when the valley suddenly becomes one OF
GRANDEUR narrow ravine with rocky walls
rising to the height of nearly 1000 feet and
almost perpendieular They are, in fact. 50
nearly vertical that ascent is almost impossi-

as the BALD Hills The gulch dividing
these hills. and through which runs Talbot
Greek, is about four miles long, and suddenly
terminates into a valley Of exceeding beauty.
This stream glides softly into the Monoeacy,
which empties into the Potomac.
Then. from the little village before men
toned. YOU may view, on the east, a stream
which also rises high up in the Ridge, and
which ruas ia an easterly direction, that IS,
directly opposite to the direction taken by
Talbot Creek This Is the headwaters of the
PatapScu, and terminates Ia the Chesapeake
Bay.
Then from one place may view the above
named streams which have their headwaiers
nor over one-quarter of a mile apart, yet they
flow in directly opposite directions.
But these are not the only streams which
have their headwaters about this village OF
grand scenery, but there are many other ris-

Four Terms of School.

MEssRs. Eplrogs IL am heartily in favor
of having four terms of school IN the public
schools of Carroll county, and am highly
,,raiifed at the favorable opinions expressed
by the previous writers on this important sub
iect. il is true, our iree-schoOl system has ITS
shortcomings and defects; but, taken as a
whole, il is the best ever organized. how
can these defects be remediedY 6lve the
country pupil the same privileges as the town
people-that Of four terms OF school, ana an
Increase in the compensation OF teachers, SO
we, as teachers, can stand on an equal loot-
ing with those Of Frederick, Washington, ana
other counties of the state. Owing 10 the
lack of wages many teachers are deprived OF
possessing good reading matter, where as II
they were receiving ample pay, they could
enn;n themselves with professional literature,
which would help them to fight the battles
against Ignorance, and thus attain more
general and professional information.
lis lust as urgent and necessary to the
the teacher to supply himself with reading
material as It is for the farmer, who crops ms
field wear after year, to return something IN
the shane OF fertilizers. 1t IS seli-eyldent,
that the three term system, and the wages
paid. are not sufficient TO maintain man
family. hence it does not pay well enough TO
make il a profession. The true and tired
teachers of this county deserve all praise, and
they have my hearty thanks for their cor
dial support and cooperation on ait question
heretofore existing. | trust we shall have
their aid and encouragement again. Many
of YOU. my fellow-teachers, am prond to
