Hon. A. j. Montague, governor of
Virginia, made notable speech in
Baltimore Saturday, It'll inst, and in the
course of many wise observations It
cropped out that there are times when
he is not a home-ruler. Said he:
Just at this time it might he that an auto
cratic government would best serve the III
terests of Baltimore
This had reference to the conflict be-
tween the up-to-daters and old fogles
over rebuilding the burned district.
While leaning to modern methods, he
strongly intimated that competent auto
cratic arbitration, just as transpires i'll
the courts every day. would be better for
both parties.
In Christie tombstone" Charles
Reade wrote:
Two people may agree wonderfully if they
will but let a third think for them both.
In this connection he spoke of the

IAN enlightened and forceful public SEN
timent. This last is the great need of
ercry community, and without it nc
community can he successful
The "unofficial statesmen are the
citizens of any community who have no
personal nor corporate axes to grind
those who, habitually looking to the
pubiic good, should advise Councilmen,
and whose counsel Councilmen should
seek
Said he again:
1t has been my observation that men with
clean hands, clean hearts and clean minds
do not differ great deal upon important
questions if they can get together and dis
cuss them in friendly way.
This is sentiment good for all sorts
of factions, parties and sections of APP
parently conflicting interests.
Truth is, the people do not get ''to-
gether" often enough, ornot in the right
spirit, to discuss matters of common
interest.
1t is an excellent sentiment for adop-
ton by capital and labor organizations
if the prerequisites of "cleanliness' be
not in the way on both sides.
But the governors centre-shot was
this:
Much of the bad and inefficient govern
ment in cities of the present day is due-nOt
so much to the wrong doings of bad men,
but to the Indifference and neglect of very
good men.
Almost as much harm comes from
this cause as would proceed from actual
disloyalty.
If the p"opIe would resent public
wrongs with the same promptness and
spirit they show in umbrage at encroach-
ments upon their private and personal
rights, the total result for good would
spread all over town, county and State.
Single-handed, they can do practical
ly nothing but as factors of great
number they can do much. In war the
picket-line amounts to little until it
mergcs with the front of battle.

To say that the lovers of baseball games

very mildly. Great preparations were being
made to give the Cumberland team royal
reception when they appeared on the grounds
and when it was apparent that the weather
man was not in favor of a ball game, the
disappointment was manifest on every side.

learns, to make the reception an ELUSIVE

the Frostburg club that rudeness to
