CONGRESSIONAL POINTERS.

Some very complimentary
things have been printed recent
ly in the Baltimore papers re-
garding editor NJ. V. Brewing
of the IFicomico Ne'os i'm conncc-
ton with the Democratic nom
ination for Congress. He is
looked upon as strong posi-
bility, although it is conceded
he will not stand in the way of
Ex-Governor jackson, if he
wants the nomination. 1t is
said he would have II votes to
start with. Governor jackson
is reported by the Morning Her.
aid as saying Il am not Il can
didate and would not accept the
nomination if it were rendered
me-" The Heruid further says:
Son the Republican side of
the fence the condition is hazy
and indefinite. Congressman
William III. Jackson can have
the nomination if he wants it.
Mr.. Jackson has played such
VIGOROUSLY bad politics since
he has been i'm Congress that if
nominated it is very doubtful
that he would have any chance
of election. His chickering's with
Mudd and consequent loss of
all patronage has been a sad
blow to his prestige. In his
own county, Wicomico, the old
time republicans would proba-
bly, take pleasure in trying to
defeat him because of the mud
die over the postoffice at Sails
bury. +. 5. Adkins, the lncumb-
ent of the postoffice, is "a candi-
date for reappointment, and NJ.
A. Humphreys. Mr.. Jackson's
nephew, is trying to GUST him.
Feeling has run high in the
fight, and the Graham element
of the republican party in the
county is open i'm the condem-
nation of Mr.. Jackson's nepo-
tism. The appointment has not
yet been made, but it is under
stood from good authority that
Mr. Jackson will name Mr..
Humphreys for the place. Mr..
Adkins is one of the shrewdest
politicians in the party and is
allied with the organization
people in the state. jackson
would be weak in Somerset,
where A. Lincoln Dryden's
friends are complaining about
the bad treatment he has re-
ceivcd at Mr.. Jackson's hands
in not getting the Federal APP
pOintment he was promised. In
Dorchester, Goldsborough and
his forces have always been
openly antagonistic to Mr.. Jack
son, and it is a question wheth-
err they will be less SO this year.
MIR. Jackson's friends have
all these disheartening condi-
tions in mind, and think it
would be unwise for him to
take the nomination.
Here in Snow Hill quite an
influential body of straight Re
publicanS are very sore with
Mr.. Jackson because of the
part he played in the Postofficc
fight, and they do not hesitate
to say what they will do for
him when the opportunity pre-
sents itself.

ALL the people sympathize
with the King of England in
his sickness. While the true
American has no sympathy for
a mOnarchical form of govern
ment yet he has that sympa-
thetic feeling which draws him
very near to the stricken King

to her arms.

 SERMON.

Washington, Feb. s.--In this subject pr. Talmage puts glow of gladness and triumph upon passages of life that are usually thought to be somewhat gloomy, text, zechariah xiv, 2. At evening time
 While night in all languages is the symbol for gloom and suffering, it is often really cheerful bright and inn pressive. l speak not of such nights as come down with no star pouring light from above or silvered wave tossing up light from beneath-murky, hurtling, por- tentious, but such as you often see when the pomp and magnificence, of Heaven turn out on night parade, and it seems stars began so long ago were chiming yet among the constellations and the sons of God were shouting for joy. Such nights the sailor blesses from the fore castle, and the-trapper on vast prairie, and the beiated traveller by the roadside. and the soldier from the tent, earthly hosts gazing upon heavenly and shep- herds guarding their hocks atield, while angel hands Above them set the silver bells a ringing. 'Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace; good Wtil toward men" tL
 What solemn and glorious thing is night; in the wilderness! Night among the mountains.' Night on the ocean: Flashing night amid arctic seventies: Calm night on Roman campagna! Awful night among the cordilleras! Glorious night mid sea after a tempest. Thank God for the night!

 HANGING LAKE, COLORADO.
An Interesting Body of Water up in
 the Rocky Mountains.
Glenwood Advocat

Glenwood Advocate.
 Hanging Lake Is generally known as Dead Horse Lake, a name as inappropri- ate as 1t is possible to imagine, for the reason that no kind of a horse could pos sibly get up into the lake. This lake Is situated about one mile from the canon known as Dead Horse Canon. which Is opposite the Shoshone station on the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad, eleven miles from Glenwood Springs.
 It is one of the most beautiful lakes the mind can conceive of. The water Is clear as the most perfect crystal The minutest object lying on the bottom oi the lake can be seen as we'll as an object floating on the surface. The depth IS rom two to probably 100 feet This lake hangs in the corner of two perpendicular walls of rock which seem to tower 1000 or more feet above 1t. The outer wall of the lake from one cliff to the other is circular in general form with zig-zag edge from three inches to six in width. formed by the vegetation which has grown there and then become petrihed by the water of the lake running over 1t. From the appearance of the wall 1t Is growing and contining more water within it's enclosure.
 There are trees lying in the lake that are covered with lime, showing every limb, knot or indenture. no matter how small or great the indenture may De- There is no sign of animal life in the lake or anywhere around It. It is very doubt full whether it freezes over in the win ter. for it is fed from an immense spring gushing out of the forks several hum dred feet above it. Underneath the lake feet long and ten feet wide and high enough for a man to walk upright in. But you will certainly receive free shower bath before you climb over the rocks and get into where 1t Is dry. Miss Church-But I think it Is dreadful for a minister to be herettc:

THE DlSPENSARY AGAIN.

.'Woe unto them that call evil good, and good
evil: that put darkness for light, and light for
darkness; that put bitter for sweet and sweet Tor
bitter" Isaiah, chapter 5. verse 20.
Mr.. Editor, please allow me anoth-
err word. | want to enumerate few
things which seem to me to give the
whisky traffic in Terre county,
through the dispensary, an air OF re-
spectability such as | have never
known the business to have in all the
days of my life.
First. 1t is authorized by that hon
orable body, the Georgia legislature.
Second. Inaugurated by the city
councils of Dawson, Bronwood and
Sasser.'
Third. Engaged in by the entire
county.
Fourth. Our county commissioners
composed of our best citlzens) are
buying and selling it for the county.
Fifth. Clever men are behind the
counters dealing it out.
Sixth. No drinking or gambling
allowed in the dispensary. Too nice a
place for such things.
Seventh. The doors are closed at
sun down. Hence, the dispensary is
as free from the midnight carousal as
dry goods stores are.
Eighth. This traffic is approved by
many of our best citizens.
Ninth. Advocated by our Oldest
and most widely circulated county
paper.
Tenth. Sanctioned by the visits of
good and sober men who, Isuppose, do
not drink.
The responsibility thus given to
this Ubiquitous business is well calcu-
lated to increase the danger to our
young men of this dread evil-strong
drink

SOUND BUSINESS REASONING.

The merchants of Syracuse, n. :,
have drawn up and signed a mutual
agreement declaring that in the III
ture they will do no advertising what
ever except through the newspapers.
They assert that as medium for ad-
vertising that brings returns no other
method compares with the medium OF
newspapers.
The Syracuse merchants are indis-
,,utahiv correct in their conclusion.
The intrinsic worth of newspaper ad-
vertising is becoming daily more evil
dent to progressive men OF brains anu
business everywhere. The great mer-
chant princes of the country have
built up their business from lnslgnlh-
canoe to power almost solely by the
liberal use of printers ink, and eacn
succeeding year they are spending
more and more in this way.
AS an automatic fact newspaper al
yertising does pay surprisingly.

An Arrant Hypocrite.

From the Griffin News and Sun
The most contemplate president OF
the United States is the present Occu-
pant of the "white and black house."
Others may have been worse at heart
and in deed, but they did not try so
hard to conceal their vices or their
feelings.
1t is the arrant and pitiful hYpOcrlcy
of Roosevelt that is so faJigueing.
Processing to love the south, he in
suits us in every sensi bility by inviting
a negro to his family dining, and de.
nounces it's grandest heroes as anarch-
lists.
Enchanting, Glove Georgia? Why,
how could | help loving Georgia. he
appoints another black negro as col
lector at it's principal seaport-the
most important federal Office in the
south outside of the judiciary.
Pretending to be purist in politics,
he dismisses Pension Commissioner
Evans because he stands in the way
of the sharks lOoting the treasury.
Posing as the champion of civil SER
vice reform, he is turning out of his
cabinet and of other positions all those
who do not favor those aspirations for
his own succession which he so re-
Gently denied.
Arrogant, boastful, domineering,
truculent: selfish and inconsiderate-
all of these things be has shown HIM
self to be, but none of these are so
bad as the thin and trayed cloak OF
hypocricy in which he seeks to con-
ceal himself
This may be treason and anarchy,
but it is not partisan rancor. Heaven
knows we would be glad To applaud
our president if we could-and 1t is
true statement that no man can hon
estly deny.
