THE BELAIR Democrat of which Mr. Joseph
NJ Street, is the editor, in its issue of last week
said: There is a vacancy on the bench of the
District of Columbia caused by the death of
the late Judge Hagner that Mr.. s. A. Williams,
of Hartford, would fill acceptably to the people
of Maryland. The Democrat opposed the can
didacy of Mr.. Williams for Governor because
be was for a political Office and represented
political party at war with Democracy. The
bench is for the administration of law, is
non-political Office and Mr.. Williams ability
as a lawyer and his judicial mind eminently
qualify him for that position, and the Democrat
commends him. President Roosevelt contrib
uted literally to Mr.. Williams defeat and it
would be a graceful act for the President to
make recompense and give Mr.. Williams the
iudgeship that he would adorn."

THAT EXPENSIVE and amusing humbug-
the Government distribution of seeds-is to be
carried out the coming year on grander scale
than ever. The weight of the seeds is thous-
and tons the cost to the Government, $780,
900; the number of packages, 100000 and
each Congressman's share is 1880. Now as
the greater number of Congressman come
from the big cities where no seeds can be used,
and as the intelligent farmer and trucker buys
his seed from reliable firm or store, we do not
see much use in the Federal Government keep
ing up what was good in its day, but is hum
bug now. There might be some justification
for sending out seed to the various agricultural
stations throughout the country, but the policy
of franking them all over the United States to
persons who neither want nor need them is
petty abuse which should have been dropped
long ago. 1t is as squareiy opposed to sound
American principles as it would be for the
Government to distribute boots and shoes or
pen knives but these articles would at any
rate be of some practical use.

GOVERNOR SMITH, of Maryland, is now ac-
lively at work to secure his own election to
the United States Senate to succeed Senator
McComas. II is said that this Office was prom
:sed to him as a reward for calling the extra
session of the Legislature, but Mr.. Rayner has
doomed up as very strong candidate for this
honor and the fight for it may prove the live
liest sort of contest.

Mr.. FRANCIS M. DARBY died at his home in
Baltimore, on Tuesday last, aged 65 years. He
was native of Frederick county Md, and
was educated for the law. After being admit
ted to the bar he practiced many years in Ha-
gerstown, and also took an active part in Re-
publican politics. In 1882 he was appointed
Assistant United States Treasurer at Baltimore.
After completing his term in that Office he
was chosen treasurer of the Safe Deposit and
Trust Company of Baltimore, which position
he held to the time of his death. Mr. Darby
was popular gentleman and had wide cir
Gle of friends.
In CASE of annexation, Canada would bring
the United States left-han6ed dot in the shape
of debt amounting to 1856 0OO, 900, which is
about onethird of the interest bearing debt of
the United States. Canada's census of 1901
showed population of 5,371, 315, which is
100000 fewer than New York and 1000, 900
fewer than Pennsylvania had in 1900. Canada
is not large proposition as far as population
is concerned, but in area, canals and debt it is
quite STABLE The dominion is handing out
subsidies to railroads so literally that quiet
expectation to be annexed some day might
be suspected.

1t saved them lot of trouble after the polls
closed, and enabled them to know the result
within several minutes. The quickest time in
which the vote was ascertained was seven

CECIL COUNTY Democrats have trotted out
candidate for U. s. Senator in the person of
ex-State Senator Austin l.. Crothers. A dis
patch frcm Elkton on Wednesday said: "Ce-
Gil county Democratic politicians, with rare
foresight, are already calculating that the fight
between Smith and Rayner will become so
bitter that both will have to be sidetracked for
the benefit of dark horse. They further
figure that Mr.. Crothers is that horse" Mr..
Rayner declared on Wednesday that the Cecil
county delegates were not, as reported for
Gov. Smith, and intimated that he would have
them when the proper time came. Sothe plot
thickens and the fight promises to be lively
one.
On JOINT ballot the Maryland Legislature of
1904 will stand SO Democrats and 40 Republi-
cans. The Senate will contain Is Democrats
and Republicans, and in the House there

following counties send solid Democratic dele.
cations to the House: Anne Arundel, Balti-
more, Caroline Carroll, Hartford, Howard,
Kent, Montgomery, Prince George, Queen
Anne Somerset, Talbot, Wicomico and Wor-
cester. The Republicans send solid delegations
to the House from Allegany, the Fourth dis
trict of Baltimore city, Calvert Charles, Fred
erick and Garrett. Divided delegations are

one Republican st. Mary, one Democrat and

Curious Wills.

The most curious and perhaps the
most spiteful will on record is that Of
Queen Austrigilda, consort of King
Gontram, who by her noncupative or
verbal testament enjoined her hus-
band to STAY and bury in the same
grave with herself the two physicians
who had attended to her majesty dur
ing her last illness. Scarcely less vim
dictive was the will of the selfish hus-
band who forbade his wife to marry
a second time, concluding with the
threat, IF she disobeys me, l will
come again if I can" Quite at the op-
posite pole of sentiment was the direc-
ton of the married woman who pre-
deceased her husband to her executors
to seek out some nice, good, pretty girl
who would make an affectionate Sec
ond wife for a spouse.-London Tele-

Meerschaum Carving.

Vienna is the greatest center for
meerschaum carving, which has at
tanned a very high artistic develop
ment. The raw material comes in such
odd shapes that much skill is eXer-
cised in obtaining from each piece a
pipe that shall be as large and well
shaped as possible. The rough block
is first soaked in water to make it soft,
when it can be cut as readily as
cheese After the carving is completed
the final polishing is done by women
with fine sandpaper and kind OF
grass.
