NO VOTE ON LIQUOR
Decision Of The Court I'm The Case
Of Salisbury.

After IA close contest before the Cir
cult Court for Wicomico County for
more than two weeks the petitions of
the temperance people asking for vote
on the question of whether or not Sails
bury district should be dry at the com
ing election were turned down by the
court OH account of their not having the
required number of Signatures
When the petitions were first filed they
contained over 400 names. but the court
granted each side a week in which to
get new signatures and in which those
who had signed the petitions could have
their names withdrawn. The result
was one of the hottest contests in years,
and when the case was closed Saturday
night the judges. Page and Holland
withheld their opinion until Monday. Ii
is understood that Judge Page rendered
the opinion i'll the case.

until we could hardly hold ourselves on
the cars. Finally we reached the bot
tom. and a prayer of thanksgiving
went up from every conscious heart as
the level track stretched out before us.
We had already gone four miles in
less than two and a half minutes and
the train went four more miles on level
ground before coming to a standstill.
Not a man could speak. Everyone
of us had been face to face with death
in its most awful form One man still

brought him back to consciousness
Not one of us could eat square meal
for week as a result of that terrific
ride. We went over the rails With
such speed that the track was out of
shape almost all the distance and in
some places the rails had been spread
two feet How these cars ever stayed
on the track is a mystery to me. Soon
after that the track was torn up and
never relaid.

wouldn't stop it, and every man turned
pale as the trees went by faster and

STEAD AND CHAMBERLAIN.

If you ask me what I think of Mir Chamberlain to-day, I reply think of him exactly as I thought of him in 1885. He is an honester man than his enemies are inclined to admit, but he is by no means so consummate and crafty Nachiavell as some of his friends would like to make out.
 MT Chamberlain's great fault is his temper his great W e 1knsss is ignorarce. He is the very reverse of Pope's defini- tion of statesman-"a sly, slow thing with crcumspective eyes" He is much more like bull in china shop than the Carnot who organizes victory. He is faithful to his friends and ruthless to his foes. He is sWayed far more by his emotions than by his calculations. He never forgets and he never fOrgves. He is artful in debate and expert in wire-pulling. He is the first politician of the American type we have had in this country" MT Gladstone is said to have remarked and he is destined to give us considerable trouble before We are done with him. prediction whfcT has been fulfilled and is still in course of fulflllment--W.
