Enclosed find $3.50 for one years subscrip-
ton to THE BALTIMORE COUNTY UNION, COM
mencing January 1st, 1904. It has seemed real
lonely since coming here in July last not to hear
any news of old Baltimore county. The people
here take great interest In their county doings
and don't want them to know that we people of
Maryland are ashamed of ourselves In that re-
spect. We have had some pretty cold weather
here-15 to Is degrees below zerO-and today it
is showing hard and about six inches on the
ground at P. M. This is dairy country; al
though not so extensive as my old home, White
Hall, Md. The people ship to Chicago generally,
though some deliver to neighboring towns-Lake
Forest, Fort Sheridan. Highland Park, etc., all
on the Lake Shore r. r. Everett is abont 30
miles north of Chicago, on the G. M. & st. Paul
road, about half way between the lake on the
east and Desplaines river on the west. The
farmers are just getting their fodder shredded.
They husk but very little corn by hand. but use
the shredder and husker which shells, husks and
shreds at the same time and also stacks from the
machine. They feed bundle at time just as
the harvester ties it. A happy New Year to you
and THE UNION.n

Worthington Valley, 4th DiStrict.--The
grain fields are looking rather badly, especially
those late sown, and it is feared the present
weather will have damaging effect upon the
crop. regret to say that some farmers still
have corn unhusked standing in the fields.
Ice harvest is now in progress and an unusual
ly fine quality of that useful article is being
secured.
The lease of the Glen Morris and Glyndon
Supply Company on the limestone quarry and
kilns on the property of Mr.. M. G. Cockey
having expired, Mr.. Richard Tillman, of this
valley, is about to take charge of the same and
continue the business of lime burning. He
will be prepared at all times to furnish first
class article.
Now, while our hearts are warm, would it
not be good thing for our lawmakers and
School Commissioners to take into considera-
tion the small salaries received by the teachers
of the small rural schools, whose duties are
often more arduous and responsibilities greater
than in schools where several teachers are en-
gagged. They are surely entitled to some con-
sideration at the hands of those in authority.
Nearly all the public schools gave pleasing
entertainments before closing for the holidays.
At school No. 10, which is under the efficient
cessful entertainment was given that was much
enjoyed by all present. Miss Kemp was as
sisted by Mrs William P Woolston and other
generous persons. The program was well rem
dered throughout Miss Mary Woolston rem
dered efficient service and of course Santa

bounty. Miss Kemp is daughter of DIR. Ed

the head of this valley. He now lives in Vir-
ginia. V. OBSERVER.

THE SPEECHES. CANDIDATE
(Chicago Chronicle.)


Judge Parker has decided not tc
make any species during the cam
paign. The announcement is made or
the authority Of can intimate associ
ate' of the Judge and is made piece.
meal, so that the public may be the
better able to bear it.
First he gives out the preparatory
statement that the Judge "has nc
faith in the utility speech-making for
its own sake Then comes the more
definite admission that he will make
no speeches anywhere for the mere
purpose Of appearing in any given To-
cality' Finally he gives it out that
"you may say with the utmost con-
fidence that under no conditions will
Judge Parker make any speech any
where Tn this way he lets the pub
lie know the worst, but in such a
gradual way that it is spared the
shock Of an abrupt announcement.
No one ever expected Judge Parker
to make any speeches. He had writ
ten the State platform without saying
anything. he had sent his telegram
to the st. Louis convention without
saying anything and he had made his
speech Of acceptance without saying
anything, and even if he had gone on
the stump he would not have said
anything, but for fear he might acct
dentally say something he has conclu-
ded not to go on the stump. Some
of his admirers still claim that he
will say something in his inaugural
address-if he ever makes one.
This is the man whose admirers in
every breath are hailing as "manly,'
i" courageous, outspoken' and
fearless. These terms applied to
Judge Parker are like the names Of
the depots on treeless prairie. every
one of which is a "grove' or a
"mount.' The public is asked to ae-
cent an attractive name for an attrac-
tive reality.
As for Judge Parker, he is the re-
verse of all that he is claimed to be.
He is political clam.
