comes a young wife asking to
please tell her an easy way of
cleaning her silver; that she had
always helped her mother with
hers and it took day or two of
hard rubbing and polishing. |
am sure | can help in this quarter
and | am so glad to be able to do
so. You can clean your whole
side board of silver in a few min
utes as effectively as if you had
spent hours on it. just get your
self a cedar tub and fill it with
hot water, dissolve two table
Spoonsful of pearline in it and
place as many pieces in the tub
as you can get, rubbing them
about with your hands in the hot
suds; then lay several pieces out
at time and rub quickly, while
hot, with a perfectly dry chamois
skin; keep two large chamois skins
for this purpose, because if one is
damp it will not shine the silver
brightly. You will be surprised to
note how readily this method will
brighten your silverware and how
easily it is accomplished. Wash
the knives, forks, spoons, ETC.,
that are in daily use, the same
way.

Presents Maryland's Gifts.

The bronze statues of Charles
Carroll of Carrollton and John
Hanson, contributions Of the
State of Maryland to the works
of art in Statuary Hall at the

i'll Congress. January 81 has
been selected as the day when
speeches will be delivered on the
subject in the Senate and House.
1t is probable that all the Mary

laration of Independence and
John Hanson was president of the
Continental Congress.

appointed sub committee to

the approval of the Senate, and
which means that it shall be as

pretended purpose as is the famous
Sherman law. In this connection
it may be said that the prospect
of deadlock i'll the Senate, as a
result of Senator Quay's fight for

hailed with JOY by many Republi-

to secure "A day for the cOnSidera
tion of the French reciprocity, in
doing which he stated that he
was acting not only in accordance
with the recommendations of the
Presidents message but in accord
ance with his expressed wish, met
with prompt and apparently eff
fectual opposition from those Sen

tected sections of the country.
Senator's Alrich, lIoar, Lodge and
Depew Immediately protested
against the reporting of the treaty
and Senator Aldrich moved that
the treaty be referred to the FL
nance Committee, of which he is
chairman. The reference to that
committee would, of course, mean
,hat it would be buried there for
ever. Senator Cullom resisted,
however, and gave notice that he
would again call up the treaty

that, while Mr.. Roosevelt did not
recommend in his message any
revision of the tariff. lie did Sug-

Pritchard Wants to Restrict
Southern Representation
in Conventions.

WASHINGTON, Dec 16.-In a
conversation with Senator Quay,
Senator Pritchard of North Caro-
lima declared that he was in favor
of reducing the representation of
the Southern States in national
conventions of the Republican
votes in the elections of those
States.
! Senator Pritchard has : never
declared himself on this question
before, and it is believed that his
attitude will produce something OF
asensation among the Republicans
of his State, who are generally in
favor of maintaining the presnent
representation in national conven
lions. Senator Pritchard said he
was not in favor of reducing the
Soul this representation in Cong.
ress, for to do this would be to
violate the Constitution.

A STUDY OF WASHINGTON
SCHOOLS.
Members of County School
Boards Look Into System
Used in the Capital City.

About 80 members of the diff
terent school boards of Maryland
counties assembled in Washing
ton Wednesday morning in re-
Spouse to a call sent out by Mr..
William l.. AmoSS, Baltimore, di-
rector of the department of farm
erS' institutes Of the Maryland
Agricultural College.
The object of the visit was to
study and inspect certain educa-
tional and industrial methods in
Washington. On November %
last Director AmoSS sent out he
call. lie was in Washington on
Tuesday to make all arrange
mentS.
Tho program outlined for We'd,
neSday included formal call of
the visitors upon Secretary of Ag
riculture Wilson at 10 O'clock.
Mr.. A f. Woods, of the depart
ment, acted Us guide for the Mary,
landerS. He escorted them to the
Government greenhouses. Special
study was made of diseases of
plants, and DR.. Webber delivered
a short address on plant breeding.
There was demonstration of
class instruction by Miss Sipe. Of
the District Normal School. After
luncheon at the National Museum,
the visitors made a tour of the
manuel training schools of the
city.

this way only can judicious dis
tribution of it's goods be made on
the various markets and better re-
suits obtained than could possibly
be done by leaving the movement
of their goods in the hands of in
dividual growers.
A special telegraph office is
maintained in the exchange, and
nearly $4,000 was paid to the
companies for telegraph tolls this
year. Eastern Shore potatoes are
sold as far north as Portland,
Name, in the United States, and
many are shipped to Quebec, Mon
treal and Toronto, Canada; as
far west as Lincoln and Omaha,
Nebraska, and as far south as
Admission and Birmingham, Ala.
The total number of cars of sweet
potatoes, 1870 barrels to an average
car, handled this year by the ex-
change was 1900, and of Irish
potatoes 675.
Potatoes are not the only crops
handled by the exchange, as
thousands of quarts of berries and
baskets of peas are shipped
through it.
The exchanges officers are ever
on the alert in widening its in
tluence, and are now reaching out
after new business. Next year
the exchange will be a strong
competitor of New Jersey for the
business of "double headed
sweets" that is, sweet potatoes
packed in double headed barrels.
Already platforms and packing
sheds have been erected for this
method of packing, and it is ex-
pected that large export trade
will be worked up. Even now the
United States Government buys
from the exchange weekly and
ships to London, England, a small
lot Of ''double headed" Eastern
Shore sweets. These potatoes are
selected aud packed with the
greatest care and have given gen
eral satisfaction. Exchange Off
Gals think of sending represen-
tative to Europe to introduce
the potatoes Oh more extensive
scale. General Manager Burton
this year has many times stopped
the farmers from digging their
sweet potatoes and paid demur-
rage on cars to allow the market
to clear up, but a shipment of
800 barrels weekly on the large
liners to Europe would greatly
help in the distribution.
The advantage of packing
sweet potatoes in double headed
barrels was discovered by trav.
cling man of the exchange. He
was in large commission house
in Chicago and noticed some nice
sweet potatoes marked Jersey"
and asked the merchant where he
got them. He afterward found
out that they were Virginia sweets
and that the merchant was re-
packing and shipping them to
Minnesota as Jersey sweets in
double headed barrels. The eX-
change man took the next train
for Minnesota and the people of
st. Paul, Minneapolis and Duluth
told HIM they would be glad to
have the "double headed sweets"
from the Eastern Shore next year.
The Eastern Shore is also find
ing a ready market for it's second
crop seed Irish potatoes, which, it
is claimed, have been demon
strated to be superior to northern
and western grown seed. The ex.
change is helping its growers
largely along this line i'll finding
purchasers for these seed aud has
sold some 10000 barrels within
the last month.

TO ENFORCE SHERMAN ACT.

REPRESENTATIVE Bartlett Dem, Ga J,
during consid~raA e. of the Legislative
Appropriation bilDin the House We'd
nesday, offered an amendment to APP
propriate $3.50, 900 TO enforce the Sher-
man antitrust law and to direct the
Attorney General h. proceed to the
prosecution of all violatnrs of the law.
Although such provision was amend
ahle to point of order, not member
on either sid. of the House raised OBJ
lection. Both sides wheeled into line
and all age ed that some such action
was advisable. Some of the Republi-
cans, however, raised objection to the
language of the amendment. Mr.
Hepburn Rep, Iowa, offered as Il
substitute for it the language # the bill
he introduced on the opening day of
Z the session to appropriate $500 600 for
Sthe enforcement Of the law This was
Ssurlher strengthened to make the APP
Eipropriation Immediately available, a d,
as amended, the substitute was agreed
TO without division.
Whilst this may be a step in the
..ght direction, it i. but step. and n
eat many will have t. be taken before
vte ideal antitrust law is reached 1t
Nns strange, too, that law once
passed and signed should need another
act to make it operative. 1t is no, so
much that we need more laws, but we
do need to have the ones on the statute
books enforced There is pressing need
for antitrust legislation, but not until
projections wall. are battered and a
modified tariff takes their place can
the country know relief from oppres-
sion.
