Mckinley has shown a disposition to
display spirit of broad Americanism.
patriotism and liberality that is alike
creditable to him and gratifying to the
country. though perhaps not altogether
pleasing to some of the more rabid
partisans of his own party.
He has won the respect of many
Democrats who have not regarded him
as broad man or great man. He
displays less of the partisan and sec
tional spirit than any President since
the war. The high Office he occupies
seems TO have had tendency to de-
yelop and broaden his views. and while
he cannot wholly escape partisan in
auences and partisan requirements
and demands. and probably does not
desire TO do so. he has been liberal

tation or precedent
Mckinley is serving MS last term as
President II is not probable that he
win again hold public Office of any
kind. Democrats can freely praise him
where honest praise is due without
fear of contributing anything to his
popularity as future candidate. In
politics il is customary to fire at those
in front but to those who have fallen
or who have been relegated. and to
those who are sure and soon to pass
out of action even the most partisan
can afford to be liberal and generous.
Il is somewhat anomalous to think
or sneak OF Mckinley as non-parti-
san President. but he more nearly ap-
breaches that standard, in the sense
OF realizing that he is President of
all the people. than any Of his urede-
cessors. MAY his successor. whether

its opposition to DR.. Jordan's sug-

In the late spring after the ground
has settled the roads should be pre-
pared for summer travel by being
shaped with the road machine" or
road grader When this work is
done the ground is comparatively
dry, and consequently the heavier
road scraper is required and can be
handled on the roads. 1t is some
dinarilY called road grader, since
the name has possibly led to a mis-
conception as to an important use of
the machine. AS an instrument of
road constitution, this machine is used
to give crown to the road; but as
an instrument of maintenance it
should be used only to smooth the
surface and restore the original
crown. Apparently some operators
assume that the machine is not to be
used except to increase the crown of
the road. Employed in this way the
crown is made too great, and big
ridge of loose earth is left in the mid
die of the road which only slowly
consolidates and which is likely to be
washed into the side bitches to make
trouble there. Since the introduce
ton of the road machine there has
developed a strong tendency to in
crease the crown of the road unduly.
Doubtless the object is to secure bet
ter drainage of the road bed, but pill
ing up the earth is an inadequate
substitute for the drainage. Side
slopes sleeper than just enough to
turn the water into the side bitches
are detriment. Other things being
equal, the best road to travel on or to
haul load over is perfectly fiat one.

Bryan Turned Down.

Since the Ohio Democrats, at their
State Convention, ignored Colonel
Bryan in way which displeased the
friends of Democracy's leader-fol-
lowed by call for a convention by
the adherents of the Nebraska states
man-prominent Democrats of other
states are in something of quandary.
To ignore the man twice nominated
for the presidency they say will not
do, for the Colonel's partisan friends
are sure to resent anything of the
sort.
On the other hand, if they openly
espouse Organism, in the light of two
defeats of the Chicago platform, it
would plainly forecast another and
worse beat for the Democracy.
Maryland's state leader, Mr.. Cor
man, it is said, will feel much better
when the Democratic convention is
over, for while not a full-fedged
Bryan man at heart, he is too shrewd
a politician to knowingly offend Col
onel Bryan's supporters. Senator
German fears that it would kick up
row of large proportions to turn
Bryan's picture to the wall, or in any
manner openly declare against silver,
to say nothing of other peculiar fads
and notions so dear to Mr.. Bryan.
Just how to avoid the breakers, at
a time when everything looks so
bright for the Republicans of this
state, is matter which now engages
the serious attention of the shrewd
leaders among Maryland Democrats.

A Monster RattleSnake.

Passengers on the north bound
train of the Dry Fork railroad We'd
nesday, says special telegram dated
at Horton, w. Va, July 10Th, to the
Cumberland Times, had one of the
most exciting experiences ever occur
ring in the history of mountain rail-
reading in this State.
AS the train was slowly making its
way around a curve near an almost
precipitous mountainside at Carr's
Camp, between Harmon and Hen
bricks, huge rattlesnake leaped
through the window into the rear
coach, badly frightening the women
and children in the car while the men
were about equally anxious to secure
places of safety. A perfect panic
reigned for several minutes until the
train was stopped and Conductor
Nicholson, assisted by members OF his
crew and some of the less panicky
passengers, succeeded after desper-
ate fight in dispatching the reptile,
which measured over thirteen feet in
length and twenty-five inches in cir
conference, and had thirty-nine rat
ties.
1t is supposed that the snake was
coiled against the mountain, and an
gered by the passing train, sprang at
it, landing through the open window
more by accident than otherwise
Old mountaineers who have spent
their lives within hearing of coyotes,
wolves, panthers, bears and other
wild animals which inhabit the Sec
ton through which the Dry Fork
railroad passes, say that the expert
ence was one of the most unusual and
thrilling they have ever known.
The enterprising reporter who pen
ned the above forgot to say that be-
sides the thirty-nine rattles there was
also attached to his snakeship's tail
a COW bell and a pillow point, portions
of a steel tooth harrow and grain
drill, but it is presumed that he ex-
cused himself with the thought that
if the whole truth were told his YER
acity would be questioned and a good
snake story spoiled.

EVANSVILLE.

Sunday, July 81, was a red-letter
day for old Grantsville. The occa-
sion was the dedication of st. Mary's
Catholic church. This fine building
has been in course of construction for
several years. 1t is substantially
built, well finished and furnished.
The sermon was delivered by Father
Jas. ID. Council, of Oakland. The
corner stone was laid by Father Stan
ton, of Homecoming, assisted by Joseph
Nolan, seminarian, of st. Mary's Sem
mary, Baltimore. Many persons were
in attendance from Oakland, Iona
coming, Frostburg, Ocean Mines, Niv-
erton and Salisbury. The day was
perfect. Seldom have we seen a
larger crowd of church people in
Grantsville. Religious services have
been held in the church for several
days. We congratulate our Catholic
friends upon their commodious and
comfortable building completed.
The death of Mrs. Catharine O'Han-
ley Tuesday morning, though not un-
expected, causes many expressions of
sorrow and sympathy. She was one
of our Oldest and most respected citi-
zens. This venerable lady is survived
by four children-Mr. John O'Hanley
and Mrs. James Bevans, of Grants
vile; Mr.. Daniel O'Hanley, of Niver-
ton, Pa, and Mr.. O'Hanley, of Nova
Scotia. Her remains will be inferred
at Barton on Thursday.
The First National Bank of Grants
vile will be organized here the oath
inst. The incorporators are Messrs.
Watts and Hitchins, of Frostburg:
VIM. Jennings, Uriah Stanton and
DR.. Keller, of Grantsville. This fills
a long felt want in this valley and no
doubt will be successful from the
start.

Eagles Guard Old Monument.

A pair of eagles that have their
home on the crags of South noun
tain are the only guards of the old
Washington monument, which is a
mass of ruins on the summit of a peak
east of Boonsboro. The monument
was built in 1910 and repaired and
practically rebuilt by the residents
of Boonsboro in 1884.
Time and the elements reduced the
monument by half, and few years
ago vandals wrecked the remaining
portion with dynamite. The eagles
can be seen soaring in the air over
the ruins like sentinels, and no per-
son has had the hardihood to dis1urb
them.

The German Census.

The work of counting the State
by Mr.. Germans little army of poll
ticians has been completed. Forty
thousand dollars has been taken from
the taxpayers supposedly for the pur-
pose of exposing superb fraud in the
census, but actually to reduce the
Republican representation in the
State Legislature, and at the same
time make little Democratic poll of
their own. This was to have been
done with a great parade of virtue.
All good politicians know that virtue
is an excellent political asset, and
Mr.. Germans friends saw in the CEN
sus agitation an opportunity to bor-
row little of this rare element.
No self-respecting man would have
the false census of st. Mary's and
Charles counties remain uncorrected
and its authors unpublished. These
frauds have been denounced squarely
from the first, but it was held that
there was not the slightest excuse for
spending $4,000 for State census
conducted by a party of partisan
spoilsmen. The national authorities
discovered the errors and corrected
them. The men who betrayed their
trust were prosecuted with a vigor
that completely disarmed any suspi-
cion of political bias from the party
in power. The German influence,
however, wanted to use these frauds
in their work, and they wanted some
definite assurance of Republican leg
islative scalps.
1t cost the State $4,000 to prove
that this was literally correct, even
from the German point of view, when
it denounced the State census as use
less extravaganza. The German Dem
ocrats have apparently succeeded in
taking Republican representatives
from Kent, st. Mary's, Charles and
Anne Arundel counties, but will have
to add another Republican member

When the quantity of food taken is
too large or the quality too rich,
heartburn is likely to follow, and es-
pecially so if the digestion has been
weakened by constipation. Eat slow

food. Masticate the food thoroughly.
Let six hours elapse between meals
and when you feel fullness and

CHICAGO is making extraordinary
exertions to save the babies from
death by the heat. People have con-
tributed money literally in order that
infants in charge of mothers may be
taken on short excursions on the lake
and the health officials have followed
the example of officials in other cities
by issuing free booklets on the way
to care for babies in hot weather. An
original idea is the enlistment of the
Board of Health of one hundred ply
sicians for service in the tenement
house sections of the city. These
physicians will give their time exclu-
sively to the care of infants and chill
dren during the heated term. The
mortality among the little ones in all
our large cities in the past few weeks
has been appalling.

Schley Attacked Without Reason.

The people of the United States
that is, at least, nine-tenths of them
will continue to maintain that the
credit of the victory at Santiago be-
longs first of all to Schley, who was
in actual command at the time of the
fight. Had Admiral Sampson, in his
report OF the engagement, been fair
enough to mention Schley, and if he
had been fair enough later on to give
that officer the proper credit, the I'M
seemly discussion would not have
gone on for three years. But the
fool friends of Sampson have seen fit
10 attack Schley without rhyme or
reason, and they have INDUCED, in
some instances, in the meanest sort
of abuse. Sampson has kept quiet,
thereby giving a tacit Endorsement
to the assaults upon his able assist
ant. Now comes the third volume of
Maclay's history, in which the writer

Catholics in Maryland.

For the archdiocese of Baltimore,
which includes the District of Column
bia and all of Maryland except the
Eastern Shore, the Catholic popula-
ton is estimated to be about 245,000
as recorded in the Catholic directory.
Rev. William T. Russell, of the cathe-
dral, states that there are about
10000 Catholics, divided among Al
churches, in Baltimore city. There
are between $4,000 and 10000 in the
District of Columbia. For Maryland,
including the Eastern Shore, an esti-
mate of 100000 Catholics appears to
be proportionate assumption.

The result of the State census has
been announced and very likely the
object its promoters had in view has
been accomplished. Certainly as far
as giving a correct census of the
State is concerned it is open to con-
siderable criticism and doubt. The
State census shows a difference of
about 10000 from the Federal census.
The total amount given as the popu-
lation of the State by the State CEN
sus is 1,1S1, 691 and the Federal census
made it 1,19O,o50 difference of 1859.
With this difference, Baltimore City
has been given S,017 more than by
the Federal census, making the pop
ulation of the counties therefore 49,
$40 less than last year. Baltimore
City, which contains little over one
third of the population of the State,
shows gain in one year according to
the State census, of $3.50 and the bal
ance of the State shows loss in the
same time of over 10000. This is alb
surd on the face of it, but can be ex-
planned by the statement of Colonel
Schley, Superintendent of the State
census, who says: II had large
number of enumerators to employ
and only limited time in which to
ascertain the fitness of applicants.
The pay was exceedingly meagre and
that of course added to the difficult
ties" 1t is fair inference to draw
from this statement that the enumer-
ators as rule were inefficient, unfit
and underpaid, and if the figures are
incorrect it is not surprising.
While the State census is not strong
on the question of population, it has
gotten down to fine point the num-
Der of persons who were registered
but at the time of the State census
were out of the district. 1t also tells
exactly the number of voters and ex-
actly the number not registered. To
gather this information, of course,
took considerable time and labor, and
men working for an exceedingly mea-
gre pay were not expected, in the
short time allowed, to follow up every
branch of the work as closely as the
particular lines on which the Demo
cratic managers were anxious to be
clear. 1t is also stated that tho State
census bureau gathered much more
information which it is unable to pub
lish. This information includes a
complete record of illiterates, their
age, sex and color, location, and it is
fair to presume, their politics also.
The other information the State cen
sus bureau declined to publish are
facts maybe, that will give the Dem
ocratic party workers the tip as to
whom to note in order to have their
names stricken off of the books long
enough to allow the Democrats to
carry the Legislature and return Mr..
German to the United States Senate.
All this cost the State a mere baga-
telle of $4,000, but it put the Demo
cratic party in possession of an
amount of useful information with
out any cost to the party. In fact a
number of party workers were by it
given few extra dollars out of the
public treasury. Indeed the Demo
Gratis have every reason to be salts
| fed.
