THE CIRCULAR NUISANCE.
One THAT should be suppressed Here
as elsewhere.

ms EiseWhere.
The Frederick News says: There
ar eshundreds of people in Frederick
who will sympathize with the resi-
dent of the national capitol who
writes to the Washington Evening
STAR Indignantly asking why the law
forbidding the distribution Of circu-
lars In that city is not enforced.
ut is enough, he says Ito have
to endure the nuisance of the falling
leaves blown everywhere by the su-
tumn winds, but that is matter that
cannot be prevented and is but for
short time, wnlle TIL g circular nui-
sance continues the year around.
1t is an intolerable nuisance and
one that ought to be and can be
prevented. If the commissioners
would instruct the chief OF police
to have his force arrest every one dis
tributing, or even carrying the circu-
lars for distribution about the streets.
it would soon be stopped.
This is nuirance regarding which
there has long been universal com
plant. AS the indignant citizen OF
W hington POINTS out. there are
other and more legitimate means by
which these parties can advertise. and
there is no excuse whatever for their
thus annoying the public, and ia a
number of cities the throwing OF cir
culars about the streets and on door
steps il forbidden by law, but never
theless nearly everv community
suffers from this practice. Not only
are streets. porches AID Yards Uttered
with hand bills. but in many cases
the persons sent out to distribute cir
culars are instructed to ring the bell
at every door where one is deposited.
and the instructions are usually car
ried out with annoying faithfulness
and vigor.
This is a nuisance which the public
ought not to be required to submit to.
The passage and strict enforcement Of
an ordinance forbidding il would be
warmly commended.
The same arrang. ments exist here
and should be stopped. People who
wish TO advertise should use the
newspapers. for that is the only iegit.
innate way to do it. Pasronige the
newspapers, and get your money Z
worth, eschew circulars and such trash
and save the people annoyance.

The only apples on the local market
now are very poor ones, for which a
high price is demanded. The scram-
BILE OF foreign the dealers to egt pos
this wear has caused abe ut all of the
apnles to be shipped out of the county
and valley at prices that made the
pockets of the orchardists bulge out,
while local people will also have to
do without the fruit.
Very few local markets now have
any apples for sale and those that
have them are getting 20 and 30 cents
for a verv poor quality of the fruit.
The comisslon agents almost stripped
the valley and there are but very few
left.
The only place where good applies
are left in this section in any quaint

to eliminate the heavy grades which

MORE HONOR FOR SCHLEY
Appeal to be Majc to Congress

Schiey is TO appeal TO Congress. He
Will not ask an investigation. 1t was
authoritativelv stated last night, hut
through his friends he will ask nm ex.

of Admiral Schley's warmest friends
and supporters. Senator McComas,

Schrim, and others were in atten-
dance upon the dinner. ut which the
situation was very fully considered.
II was announced bv Admiral Schiev s
personal friends that he did not desire
removal I the CONTROVERSY IN Con.
gress upon the ground that ii would
not have the decisive results, aud Sem
ator McComas outlined the plan that
he had formulated. This proposes a
resolution, the preamble of which re-
cites Admiral Dewey i statement thai
Schley was in command at Santiago
and that TO him is due the credit for
the glorious destruction OF the Span
ish fleet. The resolution will then
direct that Rear Admiral Schley,
who is now upon the retired list shall
permanently be placed upon the active
list of the navy at his present rank,
with the full pay and emolnments OF
the same. There was considerable
discussion last night regarding the
wisdom of asking Congress t" give
him vote of thanks while such ac-
tion would. of course, be welcomed,
il was thought that IL would not be
entirely commensurate with the ser
vices rendered ny him on the eventful
3rd of July. There was also some
consideration of tho proposition to.
create for him the grade of vice admit
raj, but this, IT was also thought,
would create jealousy and consequent
friction.

American people are hereby rendered

In few days something must happen
"A few days Oh, yes!'' AS a matter

and rearranging everything.

piled Nina with fleeing smile. He just
