This is the way a contemporary
puts it: CATER you get on your ear
and make up your mind TO "stop"
your paper to make the editor feel
Inundated, just poke your finger in
water and pull it out and look for the
hole. Then you will know how sadly
YOU are missed. The man who thinks
a paper cannot survive without his
support ought to go of and stay
awhile, and when he comes back he
will find half his friends didn't know
he was gone The other half didn't
care a cent and the world at large
hadn't kept any account of his move
ments whatever. You will probably
find something in your home paper
that you cannot indorse. Even the
Bible is rather plain and hits some
hard ticks. If you were to get mad
and burn your bible the hundreds of
presses would go on printing them
and if you were to stop your paper
and call the editor all sorts of ugly
names, the paper would still be pub
lished. And what is more you will
sneak around and borrow a copy ev-
cry day or week of your neighbor. 1t
is much better to keep your vest
pulled down and your subscription
paid up. !"

Depew to Grosvenor.

Senator Depew has written letter to Con-
gresham Grosvenor. Depew some weeks
ago advocated the nomination of President
Mckinley for third time and before the
press could roast Depew Grosvenor endorsed
Depew's third term notions. When the press,
regardless of party utilization, repudiated third
termism and severely criticised Depew and
Grosvenor, the latter repudiated to some ex.
tent his interview, and then Depew wrote an
open letter TO Grosvenor, which was pub
lished the first of this week, censuring him for
changing front on the third term idea
Depew was bold in re announcing bis be-
lief that the country may at some critical pc
Rod need the services of President for a
third term, but his defence Of his position was
not forcible and his recital of the causes OF
Grants defeat were not accurate. Grant was
defeated for the nomination for a third term
simply because public sentiment was too
strong against third termism. 1t is true there
is no law against third term, but no man
will ever be elected third time. Indeed it
the Constitution prohibited a second eonsec
utive term a President would not be schemlng,
bargaining and trading all through his first
term in order to get a second. There would
be more craftsmanship at the White House
and less polical scheming,

Farmers, League Formed.


On the first page of this issue will be
found an account OF the formation OF inc
Farmers League of Maryland. The move
ment is good one That government IS
wholesome where the farmers in considerable
numbers take an interest i'll public affairs.
The membership of the League is to con-
sist of one delegate and one alternate from
each farmers club, grange, live stock assoeia-
ton or any other body interested in agrleul-
ture in this State.
One of the principal committees OF The
League will be that on legislation, which IS
TO aid in promoting Legislation beneficial. to
agriculture and impeding all that is harmful.
There is one feature of the League that we
do not like. 1t is that providing that any
officer accepting political office or nominal
ton must vacate his office in the League. we
regard this as unnecessary. An othcer having
full and thorough knowledge on the subject OF
needed legislation is just the person to present
il to the General Assembly. he may have
force in advocacy ofthe measure that no other
member has. and he may be most compe-
tent aud capable. In the one case the League
and farmers in general must lose the services
of the man best able to present and advocate
needed piece of legislation, and inth other
the League must lose the services OF very
competent official State legislatures usually
have too few farmers and too many who make
politics leading pursuit.
We take it for granted that the officers OF
the League will generally be above the aver
age in intelligence and capacity, and the pro-
hibition of officers filling political office
while holding office in the League simply de-
MES the farmers the services Of their most in
telligent men.
The rule is illogical and should be repealed

LUNCHEON 10 MR.. GORMAN.
RENDERED BY MR.. JOS. FRIEDENWALD.
A Notable Gathering of Demo-
Gratis to Greet the Distinguish
ed Guest.
An Elegant Luncheon and Stalwart
Democratic Speeches.

The luncheon rendered to Hon. Arthur P.
German by Mr.. Joseph Friedenwald, at his
country home, White Hall Manor, about four
miles from Glyndon, in Worthington Valley,
Baltimore county, last Thursday, was de-
lightful affair. Two electric parlor cars,
starting from Baltimore and Calvert streets,
Baltimore, conveyed most OF the guests to a
halt mile beyond Glyndon. All along the
route to Glyndon there were beautiful homes,
surrounded by handsome lawns, pretty shade
trees and flower beds. At Pikesville the vet
Grams at the Confederate Home waived
greeting to the party, and all along the route
handkerchiefs were waved.
A half a mile beyond Giyndon carriages
were in waiting TO convey the party to the
spacious home of Mr.. Friedenwald, which was
beautifully decorated with bunting and flags.
On the side OF the veranda facing the drive.
way 10 the house was a banner, upon which
were the words-"Welcome to Hon. Arthur
Pue German" As the guests entered the
strains of an orchestra were heard in the front
parlor, and at the steps Mr.. Friedenwald gave
a cordial welcome to all. His sons, too, were
warm in their attentions TO the visitors and
made all feel at home.
shortly after the arrival of the guests an
elegant luncheon was served to the TWO hun
dred or more present, nearly all being served
upon the spacious veranda. At table in the
house Mr.. Friedenwald presided, with Sena.
tor German on his right and Gov. Smith on
his left. Other guests at the table were Ex-
Gov. jackson, Hon. Edwin Warfeld, Comp
troller Herring, Ex-Mayor Latrobe, Gen. l..
Victor Baughman, Hon. Murray Vandiver,
Ex-Judge Jas. A. C. Bond, j. Fred c. Tai
bot and Olin Bryan.
At the end of the luncheon Mr.. Freden-
valid arose and addressed the guests. As he
began TO speak others crowded in the room
and adjoining rooms. He spoke of his love
for the Democratic party and eulogized the
services to the party, to the State and to the
country of Mr.. German.
Mr.. German made reply TO the pleasant
words of Mr.. Friedenwald. and he was fol-
lowed by Gov Smith, Bernard Carter, Ex-
Governor jackson, Gen. l.. Victor Baugh-
man, Ex-Judge Bond, Edwin War6ed,
Comptroller Herring, Elk Mayor Latrobe,
Senator Bryan, j. Fred. c. Talbot and Alon
"a L. Miles.
Get together was the Keynote of all the
speeches; smooth the differences of opinion;
nominate first class men for the Legislature,
and all work for Democratic success. Tx
Gov Jackson said that any Democratic Leg
islature chosen in Maryland would send Mr..
German to the United States Senate, where
his presence has been sadly missed, and all
the speakers spoke in high praise of MIR. Cor
man as safe party leaderin State and nation
and an able legislator.
There was hearty unanimity of sentiment
among all the speakers and loud applause
was given every utterance of words OF COM
mendatioD.
The affair was great success in a social
way. and was veritable Democratic lovefeast.

Still Exalting Sampson and Ignor-
ing Schiey.

The Naval Board of Awards, supported and
perhaps Influenced by Secretary Long, have
selected the design for the medals for the
officers and men of the Sampson feet which
destroyed Cerveras feet off Santiago. The
battle was fought by Admiral Schley, but
there is nothing on the medal showing that
Schley had anything to do with the tight
SIMPSONS boat, the New York, was twelve
miles away when the battle started, and SIX
miles off when it ended. Still his likeness
will be on one side of the medal. A South
erner and a Democrat could not expect any
fair treatme mt from the Hanna Mckinley Ad-
ministratiou but the people know to whom the
honor of destroying the Spanish feet belongs,
and history will give 10 Schley all the credit.
When medal is presented to Admiral Schley
he should toss it into Secretary Long face.

Com pliments to Senator German.

IF Elk Senator German had any doubt as to
the sentiment among Democrats as to his re-
turn to the Senate, it was all dispelled at the
luncheon rendered him by Mr.. Joseph Fried
enwald on Thursday. There were about
two hundred Democrats present-representing
every shade of opinion in the party, but Demo
Gratis as to basic principles, and a really rep
resentative body. A number of speeches
were made, as noted elsewhere in this issue,
and every reference to Mr.. German was
heartily applauded. Mr.. German, who was
also among the speakers, gave no intlmatlon
as to whether he desired to be returned to the
Senate, but Elk Gov. jackson spoke well when
he said that any Democratic Legislature
chosen would elect Mr.. German; that it was
not necessary to ask candidates as to their
preferences for Senator, but advised the nomi-
nation of the most acceptable Democrats for
the Legislature to be found, elect them and
there would be no question as to who would
be elected Senator Hon. Edwin Warfeld
also spoke well when he said first elect
Democratic Legislature, then if a better man
than Mr.. German could be found in the State
for Senator then elect him; do not stop now
TO consider who shall be Senator.
