WOOdlawn Camp.

Sunday was the last day for the thirty
second annual camp meeting at Wood
lawn under the auspices of the Wood
lawn Campmceting Association. The
tenters broke camp for their respective
homes on Monday. The camp this year
was very successful one. The system
of charging all visitors on Sunday an adj
mission of five cents instead of taking
collections, has worked even better than
its advocates expected. The number of
tenters was the largest since the organi-
cation Of the camp. The attendance on
Sunday was very large, and the services
began early that morning, and were con-
tinued until late at night.
This year the Association underwent
an expense of about 5000 by the cree
ton of Il wire fence around the grounds.
Gates were placed at vantage points for
the admission of people and teams. The
first Sunday the receipts from the visi-
tors who paid ) cents admission were
S125, and the second Sunday $50. The
plan has worked admirably. The Asso.
citation owns IS tents. which cannot be
bought to-day for less than $4,000. The
water upon the grounds is excellent, but
has to be carried from pumps. Next year
the association will probably have the
water forced to the grounds by means of
piping and steam pump. This organiza-
ton is on an excellent financial basis.

TEDDY ON HIS TRIP.

DRESIDENT ROOSEVELT starts

1t is good thing for the Chief
Executive of the Nation to look the pco-
pie straight in the l'scr ~ often as pos

own messenger. in thc delivery to them
of special messages which they need aud
should have. There is need that, the
people should l.no" what they are to en-
poet from his Administration. on press
ing public questions. What he proposes
10 do about the Trusts. how he proposes
to treat Cuban Reciprocity. and what
revision of the High Tariff schedules he
will recommend 10 Congress.
President Roosevelt is rXccIIcntly
equipped as Il public speaker. to treat
these questions before the American pro-
pie. without descending to the level of Il
mere stump speaker. We therefore think
his object is wise. in making this trip.

prove beneficial.

ATTEND THE PRIMARIES.

~ OR the first ''me in years, the
Republicans of Cecil county, will
- to-day participate, in the politi-
cal affairs of the First Congress
sional District of Maryland. of which,
Cecil county by an act Of the Legislature
now forms an integral part.
''Thc Wing" hopes to see the advent of
the county into its new political associa-
ton, marked by full attendance of
Republicans and conservatives at these
Primaries. indicating that it expects to
become an important aud welcome factor
in the Republican Party Councils of the
First District, and as well a contributing
one. to the success of Republican prin-
ciples, at the general election in Novcm-
Der.
Cecil Republicans have in the past,
been valued advisors in the Councils of
the old First District, and we know no
reason, why they should not be equally
valuable now.
Approaching the necessity of combined
effort and harmonious party action in the
District, Cecil delegates to Ocean City,
will doubtless join in the general demand
for the denomination of Hon. William
III. Jackson, of Wicomico county. No
reasonable objection can be urged against
him. except the novel and absurd one

The Baltimore Morning Herald" an
other accredited Maryland Republican
paper in II recent editorial expressed the
opinon:-
THAT there is II new slogan that
awaits some successful party. and which
has already been approNimatcd by prcsi-
dents Mckinley and Roosevelt and is
hidden in the reciprocity proposal of
James G.. Blaine. This new battle cry
might be conciscly put in some such
fashion:-A prohihitivc tariff ON any
article produced more chcaply in the
United States than elsewhere must he
come Il mere means of oXtortion in this
country. This is what lies ut the bottom
of the so-callcd nursing of the foreign
market at the expense of the home con
sumner.
This explains why locomotives have
been sold in Japan and India more
chcaply than in New York and Mary
land: it makes plain the curious fact that
sewing machines and agricultural implc-
mcntS were cheaper last year when de-
livercd in Russia than in Ohio. right be
side the factories that produced them.
The people of the United States apprcc-
lated the wisdom of taxing the general
consumer to foster infant industries. and
| to create vast manufacturing interests.
The proposition of those who forbid all
REIMBURSEMENT of tariff injustice through
changed industrial conditions. demands

expense. Neither Blaine. Mckinley nor

body of Republicans would ever accept

HR RESIDENT ROOSEVELT

HRESlDENT ROOSEVELT has
just issued an order which will
a cndcar him to many wives and
mothers in the country. He has
ordered that the names of killed or
wounded privatcS in the Philippines be
cahlcd to this country, as is now done
in the ease of officers. When Mr. RooSc-
Welt inquired why this was not done. he
was told that the custom had not been
followed because of the expense. but he
said that regardless of expense it must
b" done in the future. The President
expressed himself as feeling that it was
hcartlcSS to keep the wives and mothers
of our soldiers in suspense until reports
could be received by mail. They learn
that the companies in which their sons
or husbands are enlisted have been under
llrc from the reports of officers injured
and then would he obliged to wait a
month to learn if those dear to them had
been hurt or killed, and he could not
count"nancc economy under such crcum-
stances.

The Poetry of Dress.

What wonld we miss in some of our
poetry if our poets were all blind? True
the Imagination would supply much that
would make good poetry, but could
poet write vivid pastoral poem or re-
ceive inspiration from landscape, such
as mountains in their inspiring grandeur,
oceans in their awcsome beauty, books
in their ripping suggestiveness, grain
fields in their sun-rehecting brightness,
were it not for the eve which telegraphs
its IMPRESSIONS to the mind? So we as.
sert that anything of beauty that ap-
peals to the eye will educate and cult
vate the mind because it inspires the
mind to higher thought When several
beautiful gowns are worn in one evening
it gives intense enjoyment to the eye.
which Immediately sends its reflections
to The mind. and the mind sets its i'm
pressions to words which to the poet
suggests beautiful verse. Suce inspiring
gowns will be worn by Miss Courtnav
Morgan. the great emotional actresg. in
the drama Camille" which will be seen
at the Grand opera house, on Friday
Nov. 18th.
