Most people seem to have such hor-
ror of McKinley's assassin that they
don't even speak his name. 1t is safe
proposition, that If he did the deed to
make his name notorious, he made a
great mistake, for most people have to
hunt up newspaper already to find out
what his name is and then they don't
know when they see it.

For Old Age.


To the old, as to babies, the even
balance Of health is more important than
anything else in the world. The possible
health in age, is not high and strong, it
is only even.
There is no end, but death to the
trouble that comes of its loss.
1t ought to be watched like baby's.
Their future is short, but oh how it
turns on comfort on whether the
wrinkles are wrinkles of pain or of long
serene enjoyment!
Scott's emulsion Of cod.liver oil-for
very old and very young in different
ways-is the food to secure that even
condition of health.

have created quite boom in the buying
and selling of the cheaper and generally
unoccupied lands. We are glad to see
this work, because these men are buying
in nearly all cases, with the view and
prospect of immediate sale again to
other parties from Iowa and other states,
who are mostly buying for the purpose
of actual occupation, and cultivation in
the near future.

The week has, on the whole been very
favorable for threshers, little dampness
Tuesday night, but it did not materially
delay work. In drive southwark on
Wednesday through Carlisle township
only one machine was seen at work and
the threshing seemed but barely COM
menced. Men are scarce in some local
tiles. The wheat is so much smaller than
the straw that the thresher man has a
slow job and earns his money. Even
with good weather threshing is likely to
be going on until late in the season.

A West Virginia Author,

Mr.. Oren f. Morton, who lived here
and at Mountain Lake Park few
years ago and is still known to our
people, has recently published book
entitled Under the Cottonwoods, a
story of life on a praire homestead.
Mr. Morton spent much of his boy
hood in the northwest and was edu-
Gated there. His book describes a
phase of pioneer life which he has
witnessed for himself but which is
fast passing away. Any kind of pio-
and the story of the settlement of the
northwest is no exception. The book
is not history but a story with a ro-
nance interviewer with it and those
who read Under the Cottonwoods'
are pleased and interested almost
without any exception whatever.
The author receives many words of
unsolicited commentator and among
his press reviews is one from well
known public man who has lived in
Nebraska almost ever since it was ad-
mitted as territory. He has a ma
tional reputation and no better au-
thority could be found. He says:
1.-THE book is correct and accurate in
every particular and should be placed
in every school library in his State"
The same author will shortly bring
out story of West Virginia life en-
titled Winning or Losing. This is
also arousing much interest, and as
Garrett is SO similar to the adjacent
counties of West Virginia it should
meet with good reception here
Under the Cottonwoods' may be
had of Jos. E. Harmed at Oakland
Pharmacy.

Things to Think About.

1t pays to. buy the best, whether
you buy suit Of clothes, a horse, a.
house and lot or get yourself wife
If you have the toothache you won't
go TO MAYORS to. get it pulled. Why?
Because you think DR.. Robinson un-
derstands the business better. These
thoughts apply to all work that you
want done. House-cleaning time is
here and you will want some rooms
papered. Now you have to pay your
money for paper and for having it
put on and paper is something that
you have to look at every day and of
course you want it put on right, clean
and neat, and you don't want your
house turned upside down for a week
to get it done. These are facts. If
they are right, see King, the painter
and paper hanger, and you will get
the neatest job and the quickest ser
vice. 3.3t

Contrary to Jefrerson's Principles.


From the New York World.
Maryland's new election law, just
passed by an extra session of her leg
islature called for the purpose, is in
tended to disfranchise about $4,000
voters, of whom $4,000 are believed to
be negroes and $1,000 whites. The
avowed object of ex-senator German
and the Democratic leaders who have
jammed it through, in the teeth of
not little opposition from independ-
ent fairminded Democrats, is to make
the State surely Democratic.
The new law provides a reading
qualification for voters; prescribes
ballot without party emblems, so
that man who cannot read will not
be able to tell for which party's can
didate he is voting; forbids election
officers to give any assistance what
ever to illiterate voters; appoints
county boards of supervisors with
authority to arrange names on the
ballot in any order they please, and
differently in different counties if they
see fit, and provide for a new State
enumeration of voters, on the alleged
ground that the Federal census was
padded in the negro counties.
The expectation is that under the
new election law the State will GER
tainly go Democratic next fall and
return Mr. German to the Senate.
But the balance of the illiteracy is
not heavily against the negroes of
Maryland, and the Republicans are
already organizing to teach them to
read. AS the negroes are eager to
learn the new law may in the end
do more to further popular education
than to promote the supremacy of the
Democratic party and the senatorial
ambition of Mr.. German.
Whatever happens Maryland has
not honored Democratic principles by
passing laws aimed to deny equal
rights to equal citizens. Whether
they are contrary to the Constitution
is for the Federal Supreme Court to
decide, but that they are contrary to
Jeffersonian principles is as certain as
it is deplorable.

Webers' Flowers,

The Public Ledger of Philadelphia
of March 21st, gave an account of the
Interstate Horticultural Society's
meeting held in that city and COM
mented at length upon the display of
flowers exhibited by Messrs. H. Weber
& Sons, of Oakland, as follows:
The silver medal offered for the
best vase of carnation blooms of any
one variety, new or old, was awarded
to the Mrs. Henry w. lawson" the
$1,000 carnation, exhibited by Messrs.
Henry Weber Il Sons, of Oakland,
Md.
None of the carnations exhibited
was regarded as having earned the
certificate of merit or silver medal of
fered by the Horticultural Society
for the best vase of twenty-five car
nations of a new variety, in the col
ors specified, the entries, while quite
admirable in their way, not being
considered better than existing varie-
ties of the same color. The Norway
new white carnation, shown by
Henry Weber & Sons, came nearer
fulfilling the requisite conditions
than, perhaps, any other. In some
respects, indeed, it is better than ex-
listing varieties, but not wholly so. 1t
has very fine qualities, however, and
in time will doubtless improve.
Among the new varieties shown,
besides the Norway were one of
white, one of light pink, two of scar
let and two of crimson.
