IMPROVE THE ROADS.

For the past two years the Republi-
cans of this county have had an oppor-
tuniry under the provisions of the ex-
listing road law to make great improv-
ments in the public highways. That
they did not avail themselves of this
opportunity seems to be the general
opinion. 1t is well known that the
spirit of the law was almost complete
ly ignored; that very large sums of
money were sp MT, and that the results
are far from being satisfactory. 1t was
the imperfect ard loose compliance
with the provisions of the law that,
perhaps, gave occasion for complaints.
The Democratic party will now, as it
has majority of the Road Commits
sioners, have to bear the responsibility
of a strict enforcement of the whole
some provisions of this enactment. If
this duty is performed impartially and
practically. the good will of the public
will be secured and party prospects in
this county will be brig htencd. 1t is
q mistake to suppose that a majority
of the people are Indifferent to the ma
terial prosperity of the commonwealth
they inhabit. Good roads, as much as
anything, contribute to the advance
ment of communities. We believe
that our Democratic Road Commits
sioners have an unusual opportunity
to score point against the Republi-
cans, by making their administration
OF the law striking contrast to the
unsuccessful and vulnerable admins
tration of their predecessors Give us
good roads, and the county will be
benefited and the party strengthened.

GORM.AN AND THE
| PRESIDENCY.

A special dispatch to the Baltimore
SIM from Washington says:
Mr.. James L. Norris, treasurer of the
Democratic Congressional Committee and
president of the Jackson Democratic AS
ISOLATION Of the District of Columbia, has
launched boom for Standardized A. P.
German, of Maryland
Ina letter to Mr.. D. s. Eichelberger. CO.
editor of the Berkely Democrat, of Mar
tinsburg, w. Va, after paying high trib-
ute to Mr.. German, reviewing his record
and declaring that the Democrats of the
country rejoice at his reelection to the
Senate, he says:
"On his return to the Senate he will
quickly assume his former high position
in that body and will at once become the
Democratic leader, by virtue of which he
must Of necessity be recognized as the
party's leader of the nation.
Il read in many of the leading papers
throughout the country that Mr.. German
is regarded as the most available man the
Democratic party can name for the nomi-
nation for President in 1901. Since his
election to the Senate Mr.. Germans name
has been mentioned in all parts of the
country as the probable nominee. His
strength does not lie alone in the Southern
States. He is strong in the East and in
the West His loyalty to the party can
not be questioned.
"When the Republicans swept the State
in 1896 by an enormous majority and gain
ed full control of the Legislature and Of
the delegation in both branches of Con-
gress, Mr. German cheered and enthused
the Democrats of Maryland, resulting in
the overthrow of the Republican party
and the elt cticn of Il Democratic Govern
or in 1898, and further, in the election in
1901 of Legislature Democratic in ma
jority.
eff nominated for the Presidency, as a
large majority of Democrats believe he
will be, he will undoubtedly be elected.
Mr.. German possesses elements of leader
ship found in but few men. He is ag-
gressive, but at the same time conserva-
tive He will make, in the opinion of
those who know him best, an ideal Presi-
dent. There will then be a Democrat in
the White House who will reflect honor
upon the party, stability, conservatism
and honesty upon the nation"

Representative Babcock's tariff re-
duction bill was, he says, drawn up
with the assistance of steel maEufac-
lures from all parts of the country,
and put into shape by the very official
who prepared the corresponding SEIZED
ule of the Dingley law. 1t is a pro-
tectionist plea, says the Alexandria
(Va) Gazette, that revision of the
tariff would be inadvisable unless it
should be made by the manufactures
themselves. In this connection the
Philadelphia Record says: "Here is a
chance for the ways and means COM
mittee to live up to the creed; why
does it not seize its opportunity?7

A CLEAR EXPOSITION OF
THE OYSTER QUESTION.

Mr. 3. Howard Haman's address
at Annapolis last Tuesday, night le-
fore the House of Delegates in support
of his bill for the promotion of oyster
planting was one of the clearest and
most convincing presentations of this
important lject ever made to leg
islative body, says the Baltimore Sur.
His remarks are given in flu II in another
column and should he read by every tax
payer and every voter in the State. The
facts and figures marshaled by him on
the side of the policy he urges are sim
ply Irresistible in logical force. Tie
case as he presents it to the intelli-
gence and self-lnterest of the people is
absolutely unanswerable, and there can
be but one verdict if it is decided on
its merits. The oyster legislation pro-
posed by Mr.. Haman is so carefully
guarded as to insure the protection OF
private interests and prevent the crca-
tion of a monopoly, while adding large :
ly to the public revenues, increasing
individual profits and providing for
the continuation and development of a
number of important industries. A
companion measure is his Road bill,
which proposes to employ the revenue
produced by the lease Of oyster farms
in the construction and repair of roads,
thus decreasing the tax rate in every
county in the State, enhancing the val
ue of property and contributing i'm
measurable to the general prosperity.
That it should be necessary to make a
plea for policy which spells wealth to
the State and benefit to all classes is
one of the extraordinary features of
the situation. Among business men
in private life there could be but one
answer to the proposition submitted by
Mr.. Haman. Let US hope that the
members of the Legislature may be
able to divest themselves of narrow To-
cal prejudices and political fears and
deal with this question on broad lines
of obvious public policy. No private
interests can be endangered under Mr..
Hamans bill, while the welfare of ev.
cry section of the State will be pro-
noted by it.

A Jolly Reunion Between the Quick
 and the Dead.

Readers of The Republican will no GoUbt remember a story of some length printed a few months ago describing the death of D. r. Kyle in smallpox ward of the Madison, Ind, general army hospital in the winter of 1864-5. 1t also described how he was buried and his personal effects sent home, and how afterward it proved to be the man in the next bed that was buried, the false report having gained currency through the fact that when the man next to him died Mir. Kyle was moved up one berth into his place and under the card suspended over the bed telling who the occupant was. The cards were not changed, and the chaplain finding a corpse and Mr. Kyle's empty berth very naturally prayed for the rest Of MT. Kyle's soul and buried the other man under an assumed name.
 That was thirty-seven years ago. and though Mir. Kyle has often told the story he never could cOnjure up a liv-

. AN INTERESTING LETTER
Building and Lean Associations ard
 Advive to Laboring Men

As an indication of how business in Phoenix looks to outsiders and the eoIidIty of enc local financial institu- ,iou. the following letter is interesting reading. It was received by R. Il. Greene of the Phoenix Building and Loan association from C. q. Heinz of Carluviue, I'll. AIr. Heinz is a we'll known capitalist in his section and. as ne says he has stock in about fifty building and loan associations, he must be man that knows what he is talk ilS about. He says:
 The citizens of Phoenix have no valid complaint to make against the Phoenix Building and Loan association. as it is one of the best in the country. Your loanius rate is reasonable and 7our expense account is as low as any in the land. Being a member of fifty associations l know whereof l speak. The citizens ought to rush to you. as the association is one of the best me diums for the development Of the city and the procuring of homes therein. Every laborer should make it a point to procure home through your asso- gi-tion rather than pay rent. Wishing you continuation of the grand success you have had in the past. l remain, etc"
 It is useless to add that the writer oi the letter has some stock in tar Phoenix association, as it is one of his fifty gilt-edge investments. His re- marks to !a5Crirg men are to the point and there gre many homes il PhCc1iE now that have been built through the good offices of the Phoenix Building and Loan association. It is q place where the man of small means can pay in a small amount monthly. and it is, not only saved for him but it earns him interest and gives him an oppcr- tunity ii he so desires to build and own his own property, making payments that would otherwise go for rent or roof over his own head. With pros perity now staring Phoenix in the face both the building and loan association and the laborilg man should be able to get on and ride.
