a Growl From The Second Ward.

MIR. Editor:
1t is an interesting, amusing and some
what instructive lesson in greedy politics,
to watch the movements Of the little, fam
tailed coterie Of politicians, who run Re
publican matters at this end Of the county;
to read their speeches made in the recent
Convention; to mark the fuls0me and UNI
varying expressions of admiration and
esteem for each other that pervade and
dominate the same; and to note the SUM
us populi, or I'VE are the people, air,
with which, after naming themselves for
] the offices, they assume that success at the
polls is certain and beyond peradventure.
"a the County Convention, Boss n at
lsins leads of, and, after paying the usual
compliments 10 his candidates. conde-
aeends TO instruct the ToteIs Of his haili-
/ wick az the subject Of their duty at the
! polls
Next, Mr.. Me too'' Avis, like Waddi-
love the fat boy, beaming with good nature
and the candidates smile and with all the
savoir faire that becomes man, who has
been sent up twice to Trenton and needs
| it again-foliows his leader in the same
you tickle me and I'll tickle you strain Of
mutual admiration winding up with an
appeal to the Republicans Of the county to
get together and bury the Ratchet Of fac
ton, ETC., ETC.; while last, but not least,
comes the venerable Pooh BAH of our
county Mr.. George Pierson, who, in pre-
senting the coterie's candidate for Surro-
gate, reads wearisome list of individuals
who have held that Office during The past
i119 years their length Of term and the
dates thereof something that anybody
could compile from the City Hall record
land which had about as much to do with
| the business before the Convention as the
Lives of the Saints, or the History Of
the Whitall Family" and at last, gets
down to real business, and, in naming his
candidate, informs the ignorant voters
who are not supposed to think when one Of
the elect is there to do it for them, that he
Pierson, had observed Mr.. Silver S actions
and measured his ability for public posi-
tion, and therefore, Anthony G. Silver
shall be the man ETC., etc. OF course chat
settles it, for what Mr.. Pierson with the
| intense yeafning for Office, he seems to
possess, does not know about mans quail
ifications for public position, is really not
worth knowing. He reminds me, il the
way he bobs up about election times with
his say about the candidates, as witness DR..
Lorenz, ct. al, Of the old lady, who, when
! rebuked for rising in meeting at an in
opportune time and speaking her piece, said
in reply, shat she couldn't say whether it
was the spirit that moved her, Or the
cramp collie, but she had to get il off her
stomach y

4 twenty wears past and Republican too,

Opening Attraction

The opening attraction at the Opera
House this season will be Mr.. Edward
Schmerber's production of the great rural
drama, Utah, and by the manner in
which the press has been speaking of the
play wherever it has been produced. there
is no doubt but that il is one Of the
strongest attractions on the road this
season. The play tells pretty story OF
y. ormon life and the scenic and stage
effects with which it is produced. makes
it one Of the strongest attractions on the
stage today. The Management of the
Opera House deserves credit tor securing
such strong attraction for the opening
night and no doubt large crowd will
witness this strong attractian at the
Opera House Saturday night.

average work Of each employe daily is
twenty-five buckets of tomatoes. The
farmers of Anne Arundel county supply
the tomatoes, which are unusually plen-
tiful this year. The process of canning
is continuous work. First, there is the
scalding. which is done in the huge caul
drons OF boiling water, then while steam.
ing hot, the tomatoes go to the SINNERS,
and It IS wonderful how they handle
them, as hot as they are.
From the skinner they 90 10 the

passed to the capper. From here to the
process kettle and then to the wareroom.

This year only tomatoes are put up
but it IS proposed next year to can corn,

unique and attractive, bearing the bust
OF midshipman on one side Of the can
and war ships on the other.
The general manager Of the Company
is Mr Councilman. of Smyrna. Del.
with Mr.. w. M. Feldmeyer. assistant
manager. The enterprise is a worthy
one. and gives employment to large
number OF people who would be other
wise unemployed. 1t should meet with
the encouragement it deserves.
