But on the other hand, let us look
at r, w. Wilcox's reception. He tour
ed the same Big Island and was well
received. Luaus were given at nearly
every point in his honor. Large
crowds gathered to hear him, people
coming long ways. He appeals to
their feelings and sentiments, and he
generally strikes home to their heart
of hearts. This is just as we have oft
en- said that politics without sentiment
is nothing at all. 1t is not good poll,
tics, but rather very poor. And the
people have shown sympathy to Will

On his campaign tour around the
Island of Hawaii, Prince Cupid was
met by the people on the roads, so it
was reported after his return here,
with offerings of wreathes, pigs cook
ed and ready to eat, and with chants.
This is considered as great popular
ovation to the young man. But is it
not natural for the people to do SO to
him? OF course it is. His brother re-
ceived like treatment when he tour
ed at the last campaign, and yet he
failed of election Rest assured, gen.
tlemen, that the reception accorded
the boy" was not on account of his
being the leading Republican candi-
date, but 1t was more on account of his
being the prince. Ii is that and moth

CIRCUIT COURT.
The Milk Cases Taken Up-Much Interest,"
in the Trial-Verdict for the Defendants.

The first of the milk cases against farmers
in this county was taken up on Tuesday, Chlel
Judge |. Thomas Jones presiding, Judge
Thomas being disqualified. The attendance
was large most of those against whom similar
suits had been instituted being present ana
many others. The interest was untiaging 10
the end.
The case was the Gettysburg National Bank
VS.. Ezra C.. Brown, near this city. Cans q
Hannah, represented by Stuart Janney, an"
Refsnider & Grimes appeared for the PLAN
tiff; Steele, Bond & Parke and Roberts d
Grouse represented the defendant. The case
was tried before jury, and the suit was instl,
tuted to compel the defendant to pay balance
alleged to be due by him on 400 shares OF the
capital stock of the United Milk Producers
Association The basis of the suit was note
given by the Association to the Gettysburg
National Bank.
The Milk Association was indebted to the
Gettysburg National Bank on a note for ~,
900. and the Bank sued the defendant stock
holder for the balance off his unpaid subscrlp-
ton to the capital stock of the Company.
After much legal sparring and argument, the
Court in its instruction to the jury narrowed
the questions down to practically one point,
that if the jury found that the capital stock OF
the Company had not all been subscribed Tor
that then their verdict must be for the de-
PENDANT unless the defendant, having knowl-
edge that the stock of the Company was not
fully subscribed. waived by some action on
his part his right to this defence, by particl-
pating in the proceedings of the Company or
otherwise ratifying the carrying on of the bus
mess by the Company.
The case was given to the jury Thursday
afternoon, who rendered a verdict, alter a
short deliberation, for the defendant.
Court adjourned until Monday.

Meeting of County Commissioners.

Ameeting of county commissioners was held
at Annapolis on Thursday of last week, upon
suggestion of the Carroll County Board. Nine
counties were represented, some by the pres
ence of their full boards, and letters were sent
by other boards, and several counsel to boards
and county treasurers were also present
J. N. Dehoff, of Carroll, presided. A num-
Der Of speeches on taxation and assessment
and other matters were made. Chas. E. Fink,
counsel to the Carroll commissioners, took a
prominent part in the discussion of a re assess
ment of personal property this year, as the
law intended to provide, and John f. Masen-
himer, county treasurer, made an excellent
speech on the same subject and against the
repeal of the tax on incomes from mortgages.
The result of the conference was series of
resolutions opposing e-assessment of per.
sonal property until 1906; opposing the repeal
of the mortgage tax, and favoring the repeal
of the law against stealing rides upon railroad
trains. The latter law has not been effective
in stopping the habit, but has resulted in over
crowding the House of Correction and increas-
ing the expenses of the institution.

DROWNING OF HOWARD L. HESS.
The Accident Occurred at StOneSifer'S Dam
in TaneytOwn District.

Howard l.. Hess, farmer of Taneytown
district, near Harvey, was drowned in the
Monocacy River, at oionesifer's mildam, last
Wednesday. In company with another young
man he attempted to cross Alloways Creek,
about } miles from his home, in a two horse
wagon. The creek was very much swollen
and ice was running in the current. In mid.
stream large cake of it struck the team and
carried the horses and the wagon with Mr..
Hess in it down the creek. His companion
saved himself by jumping on the cake of ice
and floating near enough to the shore to escape
from the water. The team was swept into the
Monocacy, short distance from the point
where the young man attempted to cross the
creek, and on down into and over the dam.
Just at what point Mr.. Hess was drowned is
not known. He was probably carried over
the dam with the team. His body was found
in a meadow below the milldam. The dead
bodies of the horses were found hanging in a
tree into which they had been carried by the
water, which had submerged its lower
branches.
Mr.. Hess was son of the late Charles W..
Hess, ofTaneytown district. He was about ~
years DID, was unmarried and resided with his
mother. Rev. VIM. Hess, of Brunswick, Md,
is his brother. He also has brother who IS
a member of the firm of Reindollar Hess, OF
Taneytown; two married sisters, Mrs. Fair and
Mrs. Null, and two young sisters.
