There seems to be a growing impress
sion that Senator Mark Hanna will not
continue to act as Chairman of the Repub-
lican Nat onal Committee. Since his op-
position to the Endorsement of Roosevelt
in Ohio, there is lack of confidence in
Hanna by the President. Those who
remember the Presidential campaign
when the money question was before the
people know what an essential conf
dence" is to the republican party, and
will appreciate Mr.. Roosevelt's position,
Another reason advanced for the Sen
ator's probable refusal to continue as
chairman is that owing to the disclosures
of the postal investigation, the secretary
of the committee, Perry S. Heath, who is
one of Hanna's right hand men, will
likely be compelled to resign. This is
owing to lack of confidence" in him by
the public, as with Heath on the conf
mittee the campaign might be tainted
somewhat with the Postoffice scandal.

Better Roads.

At last after much agitation covering
period reaching back many years, during
which the old method, CT lack of method,
has been tenaciously chung to, and thous-
ands Of dollars of the tax payers money
expended on the roads of the county
with scarcely vestige of lasting benefit
accruing therefrom, have the Commits
sioners taken heed to the public clamor
and made a move for the permanent bet
terment of our highways.
These public officials have finally de-
cided to depart from the practice so long
in vogue of paying out year after year the
entire fund collected for road purposes in
temporary patching, and will this year
set aside for permanent road improve
ment portion of the county tax levy.
This fund will be placed al the disposal
of committees of representative citizens,
chosen by the Commissioners from the
districts III which the work is to be car
ried on, the money being devoted to the
betterment of such roads as these COM
mittees may recommend, they having en-
tire charge and direction of the work.
The Sixth district has been selected as
the section in which this new plan will
first be put in practice, committee of
ten public spirited, practical men having
been named by the Commissioners to
direct the work here. 1t will be neces-
sary for this committee, upon whose
shoulders the responsibility has been
placed, to decide what road or sections of
roads are most in need of permanent re-
pair, which can easily be determined by
recalling their condition in the spring
when many of them were all but impas-
sable, and making start there.
This action of the Commissioners
should receive the hearty endorsement
not only of our farmers but all other cit
liens, who should give support and en-
enlargement in every way to the move
ment, which will surely bring better
roads, that the work may be pushed to its
utmost limits, and finally with State aid,
result in giving Cecil county what she so
long has stood i'll crying need of, well
built, permanent roadways.

The republican skies i'll Maryland are
not as clear as they might be. Last week
in Baltimore an organization known as
Union Republicans was formed, which
will be antagonistic TO the regular repub-
licau organization. The new combiua-
ton is headed by Frank c. Wachter, VIM.
F. Airey and John Burrows. Messrs.
Wachter and Airey have sheathed, for the
time being the knives which they have
kept in readiness for the scalps of each
other for years, and will work in har-
mony against the regular city organiza-
ton, headed by Collector VIM. F. Stone,
and also direct their efforts within the
party to defeat Senator Louis +. Nc
Comas for reelection. Congressman
Jackson and Mudd are said to be behind
the new organization.

Friday, July 3, 1908.

Although a strenuous advocate of the
doctrine of publicity" the President has
ordered that the Postal Department in
vestigation must hereafter be conducted
on the quiet. He fears that the facts al
ready in the possession of the public any
thing but rebound TO his party's credit.
They make it appear that the Postofhce
Department has been used as a great
political bargain counter, appointments
10 positions therein being made solely for
the purpose of cancelling political debts.
So much "shoddy" has been discovered
in the Department that the public is dis.
guested and the party managers fear the
consequences.

Sixth District Road League.

The action of the County Com
missioners in appropriating $10,-
GIL so to be used for the perman.
ent betterment of our roads is q
step in the right direction and is to
be commended. The Sixth district
having been designated as the Sec
ton to be first benefited by the
move, its roads being the most in
need of attention, the gentlemen
appointed by the. Commissioners
announce that public meeting will
be held in Rising Sun on Friday,
July "a, to determine the piece of
road to be selected for improvement
and to get the hearty cooperation
of the farmers.
An erroneous impression has got
ten out that the entire amount OF
$10,611.99 is to be expended on the
roads in this district. Such is not
the case, however, the Sixth dis
trict only receiving proportlonate
share of the amount set aside for
road purposes. Just how much
work can be done with the sum
available will be largely determined
by the additional support extended
by our farmers and others, who can
greatly extend the bounds OF I'M
provement by their hearty CO.
operation with the committee IN
charge in the way of donating
stone, gravel and hauling. Let all
turn out on the oath inst. and make
this movement a success. 1t is
confidently expected that the Leg
islature will give the county a
further appropriation when it next
meets, and with state, county and
individuals working in accord there
is no reason why the permanent
betterment of our roads may not
soon be realized.

Professor W. e. Britton, state ento-

count of the first appearance of the
pest here, and told the results of efforts
made at the New Haven experiment

the scale was increasing in new locali-

results in cold storage of fruit it must
