ATTEST THEIR ESTEEM,

The universal esteem throughout
the state of Maryland entertained for
the late Gov. Lloyd Lowndes is strong
ly emphasized by the touching edi-
torials appearing in the Baltimore
papers:
Baltimore Sun:-The announce
ment of the sudden death of ex- Gov.
Lloyd Lowndes, which appears in The
Sun today, will come as a shock to
the people of this state, and will cause
general and sincere regret. To a
great circle of friends this untimely
ending of a good and useful life will
be the occasion of genuine grief. Few
men in Maryland enjoyed to greater
degree the affection of his fellow citi-
zens. He possessed those traits of
character, that warmth of heart and
those personal and social qualities
which attract friends. He had A.
grace of manner, frankness and
klndliness that made him a charming
companion. He was a member of a
family which has been most conspic-
uous in social and political affairs in
Maryland from the earliest years of
the colony. Several Governors of the
colony and state were his ancestors.
He was a man of wealth, but lived a
simple and transformations life, and
was always in the forefront of public
affairs aswell as in those of his church.
In business he was man of affairs
active and sagacious.
Mr.. Lowndes was, we believe, only
twice elected to public Office, but he
always occupied a place in the public
arena and always exerted a strong
influence. When only 90 years of age
he was elected to the House of Repre-
sentatives, being the youngest mem
Der OF the Forty-third Congress. In
that Congress he distinguished him
self by his vote on the Civil Rights
bill. The Civil War had ended only
seven or eight years before and the
bitterness and strife of the great con
flict were still at fever heat. Measures
for punishment of the South were
still being TANNED through Con-
gress, and the Civil Rights bills were
urged as party measures to complete
the humiliation of the Southern peo-
pie. Lloyd Lowndes, as young as he
was, had the courage and manhood
TO defy the party lash and to vote
against that hateful party measure.
He was one of six Republicans in the

1900 1904.

Total ........ ID, 1854, 702 1882, 249
Thus it appears that the total vote
of 1904 is 457, 453 less than that cast in
1900. This shortage is due to the
slump of the Democratic vote. Par
ker's total Of 5,079, O41 being 1889, 975
less than that cast for Bryan in 1900.
All the other parties increasing their
vote, Rooseyelt's total being 400, 255 in
excess of McKinlev's. The Prohib-
ition increase was nearly 100000, the
Populist vote gained 63,229, the So
cialist Labor:remainsa about the same,
while the Socialist vote jumps from
90, 142 in 1900 to 402, 159 in 1904. The
Socialists are now the third party,
Debs having received votes in every
one of the As states, ranging from %
votes in South Carolina to- 60, 225 in
Illinois. The Prohibition vote also
reached its highest mark in Illinois,
34,779, and Swallow received votes in
every state except in Louisiana, Miss
issipDi, Nevada, South Carolina and
Utah.
Parker, who wes the choice of the
"reorganizersn and was to lead the
party back to safety and sanity''
from the schools where Organism was
alleged to have landed it, ran behind
Bryan's vote in nearly every state of
the Union, and his combined plurali-
ties in the 10 southern states which
he carried were only about $4,000 in
excess of the plurality given by Penn
sylvania to Roosevelt.
Roosevelt's plurality is 2,541 ,291, as
against McKinlev's plurality of $50, O61
In 1900, and his majority over all
other candidates is 1, 733, 415 as against
McKinley's majority of 475, 452 four
years ago.

LETTERS CONFISCkTED.
All Mail Put IN Rural Delivery Boxes

All Mail Put IN Rural Delivery Boxes
Must Bear Stamps.
Postmaster Hall of BucYrus, Ohio,
has a ruling from the government
which is of interest to every com
mnnity where the rural free delivery
system is in force. A local carrier
found in mail box on his route two
letters that were intended for the
owner of the box, and had been put
there by some one in passing. The
letters were confiscated and sent to
the government at Washington ii
a request for a ruling. ~
The government approved the ac-
ton of the carrier, and said that all
mail found in any box without stamps
or the proper amount of money for
postage must be collected and taken
to the postoffice from which the route
is operated and held for postage. This
ruling means that the owner of the
mail box has absolutely no control
over it.

proverbs

When the butter went
come put a penny in the
churn," is an old time dairy
proverb. 1t often seems to
work though no one has ever
told why.
When mothers are worried
because the children do not
gain strength and flesh we
say give them SCOTS Emul-
sion.
It is like the penny in the
milk because it works and
because there is something
astonishing about it.
SCOTS Emulsion is simply
a milk of pure cod liver oil
with some hypophosphites
especially prepared for delicate
stomachs.
Children take to it naturally
because they like the taste
and the remedy takes just as
naturally to the children be-
cause it is SO perfectly adapted
to their wants.
For all weak and pale and
thin children SCOTS Emulsion
is the most satisfactory treat
ment.

DISCUSSION OVER

Al a previous meeting OF the board
he matter of Increased fire insurance

ion the rates on 105 had been in
reased; SS decreased and As remain as
hey were on stock, the rates on 1S7
buildings have been advanced % de-
reased and 10 remain the same The
Increase is due to exposures, TO more

The risks that show an advance have
lot been re-rated in 1S years. The con-
lagraton hazard must also be recog-
lized and the conditions for such are
most favorable in the mercantile dis
riot due TO the very poor walls which

RECEPTION IN HONOR OF
CAPT. AND MRS. HORSON

Greensboro, June Especial What
was easily one Of the most delightful
social occasions ever known in this COM
munity, was the reception given this
afternoon by Mr. and Mrs j. A. KIM
brough on their plantation fourteen miles
from this city in honor of Capt. and Mrs.
Richmond Pearson Hobson upon their
Homecoming to Alabama from their
bridal trip.
The purpose of the reception was to
welcome Capt. and Mrs. Hobson to this
community and to assure them of the
admiring and affectionate regard that is
cherished here for them. Incidentally, one
of the objects was to enable persons In
this vicinity to meet Mrs. Hobson and
to enable her to meet them. All these
purposes were delightfully."- fulfilled by the
interesting occasion.
The reception took place in a grove on
the Kimbrough plantation of 10000 acres
and near singularly beautiful artificial
Like. Neighbors came in from all points
in the community, the reception being

Soap Wrecks Car.
The presence of soap on the tracks of
the Birmingham Railway, Light and Pow
err company near Thomas station on the
North Ensley car line, came very near
causing a serious wreck this morning at
$3.50 o'clock.
The tracks were evidently soaped by
some practical joker. The first car going
into Birmingham was one to suffer by
the joke As the car was speeding down
the grade this side of the Louisville and
Nashville crossing, the motorman saw a
train approaching and applied his air
brakes to stop the car and give the train
the right of way. To his surprise the
car slid along the track, running into a
freight train before he could bring 1t to
standstll. The car was badly smashed
up and considerable glass was broken
but outside of shaking up all the pas
sengers escaped without injury.
In few minutes all the wreck was
cleared away and the cars were running
