Electric Company. The resolutions recite
"that this meeting desires to express its APP
probation of the high standard of integrity
and honor and the great professional ability
shown by General Hood throughout his term
of office, its sense of the remarkable nature of
the success he has achieved under exceptional
difficulties and its gratitude for the absolute
fidelity be has shown for what he recognized
to be the best interests Of this city in its con-
nection with the Western Maryland Rail-

CONCLUDING A lengthy editorial on the short
comings of the Democratic Legislature now in
session in Annapolis, the Baltimore Sun says :
1.-THE Democratic party has no votes to throw
away in Maryland and it would be well for
Democrats who love it, not for spoils or Office,
but for its principles and its influence for good,
to consider now whether they will permit it to
-ys put On .Tpcnrd at this session of the Legisla-
ture as deliberate political defaulter, which
has violated its plighted faith and obligations.
If they do, they may rest assured that the peo-
pie of the State will listen to no excuses in the
next campaign, and that the stewardship to
which they have proved unfaithful will be
given to another

property was destroyed and many lives lost.

as the blind millionaire merchant. died at his
home in New York city, on the I'd instant,
aged 66 years. His remains we're taken to
Winchester, Va, and inferred in the family

We INVITE the special attention of the read
ers of THE UNION to the section of bill pub
lished in our Annapolis letter today in which
it is proposed to make most radical change
in the law regarding the granting of licenses
for the sale of liquor This proposed law does
away with the applicant for license first OBJ
tanning the signatures of SO many taxpayers to
his application and calls for the names of at
least ten reputable and qualified VOTERS"
thus doing away with one of the most impor-
tant provisions of the present law. We earn
estly hope that this bill will be killed at once.
It would be an outrage upon the people to
pass it.

In SOME sections of the country the snow and
sleet storm of WEDNESDAY of this week was
the worst of the winter. AT Harrisburg. Pa,
and west beyond the Allegheny Mountains
the snow was two feet deep and SO badly
drifted as to block the railroads. The storm
was severe in Western Maryland In many
places the railroads and country roads were SO
much obstructed as to place complete en-
barge upon travel. In Frederick and other
counties in that section of the State the snow
was over foot deep on the level.

THE BUILDING department of New York was
just on the point of inspecting the Park Avenue
Hotel when the fire broke out The hotel had
been inspected three years before and its
violations of law had been allowed to pass I'M
noticed. The subway explosion in that city
also happened to take place just few minutes
before the inspector was to have reached
the spot. The storage of dynamite in excess
of the legal limit had been the regular rule,
apparently, since the beginning of the work,
regardless of the visits of the inspectors. This
only illustrates the old saying that inspectors
do not inspect" The reason is very plain.
they are experts, but because they are the best
workers in their wards. Every change of adj
ministration brings in a new lot of bank in
spectors, some Of whom do not know the diff
ference between cash book and ledger.
Banks usually break after an inspectors visit.
THE LEGISLATURE of New York State held
a Mckinley memorial meeting on Tuesday
night, at which Hon. Charles Emory Smith,
Of Philadelphia, who was member of the
late Presidents Cabinet was the principal
speaker. He spoke most eloquently in re-
viewing the life of President Mckinley and
told of his indomitable courage and success in
the battle of life, which carried him by success
sive steps to the highest place in the nation
He recalled the great problems that confronted
the President during the several years he was
Chief Executive, and directed attention to the
sound and wise policy adopted by him in each
instance, particularizing the Standardization
war, the attitude toward Cuba, the restoration
of prosperity and the war in China. Conclu-
ding the orator said Would you measure his
moral grandeur, dwell upon that final utter
ance of sublime submission, 1T is Gods way ;
His will, not ours be DONE If bis work was
not finished it was so far advanced and so well
marked out that it only remains to follow the
halfway he blazed. His achievements and
hisiupress are sure and indelible. We lament
our personal loss; the republic mourns the
President best beloved of all while be lived;
but for him history IS perfect, and the iawless
pages of Immortality are opened to be marred
never more"

While the snow was on the ground the rabbits

Young orchards suffered most and pear trees
more than apple.

PRINCE HENRY pleased great many people
in this country and other countries when he
sent his adjutant to call on Clara Barton in
Washington and tell her how sorry he was his
engagements made it impossible for him to
call on her himself. In honor of the occasion
slowed upon her by the Princes imperial
grandfather, jewel given to her by one of his
aunts, and cross of gold, present from the
Grand Duke of Baden. It's always pleasant
effect to the ''pomp and circumstance" of uni
forms to meet the gentle faces bearing as deco
rations over the heart the symbol of the Red
Cross The Prince beside Clara Barton would
be a striking tableau of war and peace, blood
and sympathy, hate and PRAYER.
