Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
Of food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion really feeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems TO find
it and set the matter right.

THE ROAD QUESTION.

The Hartford County Democratic
Convention strikes an important
keynote in the present campaign.
In the resolutions, adopted on Tues
day, there is one which pertains
directly to the interests of not only
the farmers, but every person in the
State We alludc to the mention
made regarding the permanent i'm
provement of the public roads. While
this is not primarily a political
matter, yet, as the next session ofthe
Legislature will undoubtedly be con-
trolled by Democrats, the party will
be charged with the responsibility of
passing some needed measures. The
question of internal improvements is
always interesting, but never before
has such an advanced step been taken
as has been recently agitated both by
the press and public 1t originated
from an effort being made to have
the Legislature lease the barren oys-
ter beds of the State. Coincident
with this was the suggestion, first
coming from Hartford county, that
the money received i'll return for the
use OF these vast barren waters should
be utilized in making the highways
more modern, and that the work
should be of a permanent nature. 1t
will thus be seen that our own peo-
pie were really the first to offer
practical solution of the question,
and therefore it is but natural that
they should take the foremost stepin
bringing about the desired change.
The local members of the session of
1902 did all that they could to have
what is known as the Hannah Oyster
Bill passed, but it failed in the Senate
by narrow margin. The only OBJ
lection seems to come from tIdewater
counties, who cannot recognize the
fact that the Chesapeake Bay and it's
tributaries arc the common property
of the whole State. The opposition
is confined to local ovstermen who
are ignorant of the true provisions Of
the bill and fear that should any
change be made it would take from
them their means Of obtaining a
livelihood. Instead ofcatering to this
ignorant impression, the wisest
method to pursue would he for the
highland counties to take the matter
in their own hands, and show these
people that instead of robbing them
of a means Of making a living, they
are putting into their way a means
which looks to the perpetuation in
stead of the annihilation of the in
dustry. No local politician on either
side seems to have the nerve and
hardihood to do aught but listen to
the demands Of his localconstituents
and this is against any legislation
whatever. It's no more than natural

that these people will use their ballot
to punish anyone who dares to go
against their direct wishes, vet if the
whole scheme was fully explained
their views would doubtless be differ
ent.
Fortunately the counties not con-
tiguous to the Bay and it's tributaries,
together with the votes of Baltimore
City, can absolutely control the sit
uation, and the local members will
not be called upon to accept the re-
sponsibilities of the measure. Should
the law not work well, it is an easy
matter to either repeal or amend the
same at the succeeding session and i'll
that time the rights of no one would
seriously suffer. Both in the Senate
and in the House our localrepresenta,
tives stood shoulder to shoulder in
favor of the new law, and the ex-
preston on Tuesday indicates that

Gently had one experience in modern

This Improvement, as is well known,
was made possible through the
munificence of the gifts of the late
William and Rebecca Woolsey, who
furnished one-halfofthe needed funds
and with the Hannah Oyster Bill q
law, this half could be given to Other
highways in the county and our tax
payers would contribute the rest.
Northern States have set the ex
ample and the experiment works well
Probably the most foremost State i:
New York, which sometime age
realized that the deterioration of it!
rural communities must be stopped
No commonwealth can exist without
prosperous rural communities anC
competition Of the live West was laSt
driving local products from the
market. With good roads, the farm
er can get the fruits OF his industry
to accessible points at a very low
cost, not to mention the pleasures o
life which are to be enjoyed from tho
use of modern highways. While rail
roads and electric lines are CONSTANT
ly branching out, yet as a matter o.
course, they cannot reach the garner
of every husbandman and he must
have easy facilities to get his product
to the station. Good roads mean the
success of every community and it is
question which interests everyone.
We cordially approve of the stand
taken two years ago, and the action
of Tuesdays convention will serve as
an additional impetus to our repre-,
sentatives in aiding their efforts to
secure State aid for our highways.

WHAT SHALL THE PLAY TO THE
GALLERIES BE?


Now that the nomination of Presi-
dent Roosevelt seems to be an as
sured fact, the next important ques-
ton that the Republicans should de-
eide is the adoption Of some real live
drawing card that will serve to bring
votes to the ticket. Four years ago,
when the present Chief Executive was
holding down the tail end of the
Philadelphia Convention work, his
war record at Santiago was pointed
to with pride and he made a ire
mendous tour of the country posing
as the Nations popular idol. Subse-
quent developments have well-nigh
sickened the people with the outcome
of the late "unpleasantness with
Spain" and many are wishing that
we had never heard of Cuba or Spain
when they consider the unfortunate
entanglements that have ensucd as a
result of the conquest of the Philip
pines, so Mr.. Roosevelt is casting
about to try to find something that
will prove interesting and serve to
enthuse the crowds. He has always
been strong man to play to the
galleries" and his first appearance in
public life was on his rigorous stand
on the Civil Service Commission. He
now finds himself in a position, that,
to keep up his role, he must appear
as champion of something or other
for live action that willappeal to the
root of imagination of those who are
thrilled by deeds of daring no matter
how badly nisdirected or carried out.
The public finger of the press has
been trying to aid Mr.. Roosevelt by
drawing considerable attention to
the present outlook in Turkey, so we
need not be surprised to hear of the
United States taking a determined
stand at any moment in that far off
country. There is no question of
doubt but what the situation needs
an investigation, but the civilized
countries of Europe are in a far better
position to take hand than is the
United States, whichis almost on a
diametrical opposite portion of the
globe. Besides it might involve
war with Russia, who seems to be
guarding that country with a jealous
eye, and, no doubt is looking forward
to the time when it's lines can be ex-
tended into this contiguous territory.
AS the situation now stands, it is
very hard for his party to make any
issues i'll the coming campaign as he
does not individually stand for any
thing except his mistakes and untitled
promises. He has, in his recent
speeches, been on both sides of the
tariff question, and in the sum total,
has been less distinctly on that side
which his party will support and
which his candidacy will represent.
He started out to fight the trusts,
but his party managers have muzzled
him on this score and he will be COM
PEELED to stay quiet during the cam
paign. On the financial question he
is a decided weakness instead of an
element of strength as it would re-
quire microscope to discover ex-
actly what his views are. Unlike his
predecessor, the late President Nc
Kinley, he cannot claim any of the
credit of prosperity" and the bust
ness conditions of the country are
now in such condition as to render
almost all kinds of capital t1mid and
inactive.
