A NEW RAILROAD STATION.

Rumors have been current for some
time that the d., Nj. 4 V. Railroad
Company recognizing the growth and
Importance of Snow HILL would soon
build new passenger station here in
place of the cross roads affair now used
for that purpose. The present struc
ture is a discredit to the town. II has
one waiting room. which is frequently
filled with men. women and children.
white and black. men with cigars in
their mouths. and others chewing tobacco
and splitting on the stove. Now and
then language is used not fit for
ladies to hear. Trunks and baggage Of
various kinds litter up one corner Of
the waiting room. and the seating ar
engagements are insufficient for the de-
mands of the public. There is no
privacy for the women patrons of the
road, and they are ogled in this COM
mon pen by strange men who have no
thought for the embarrassment coca
stoned by their actions
The people of Snow Hill have petit
toned the Railroad Company for new
station. They believe Snow Hill is en-
titled to it. and they look to the
Directors of the road who live here to
represent them in the matter and TO
use the same good judgement that was
used in constructing our Court House
build for the future.
We have contributed very literally to
the prosperity of the railroad in the way
Of business. to say nothing OF the thou
sands of dollars subscribed to the stock
of the railroad. and which was totally
swallowed up by the construction of
the same. The railroad contributes
comparatively nothing in return for the
patronage of the people II can help
our town along by constructing build
ing that will impress strangers with
our Importance as a commercial and
residential center. instead of giving
them the impression that they are pass
ing through a Godforsaken country
where people haven't enough pride to
care for decent surroundings. and the
railroad is so poorly paid that they can
not afford to have attractive offices for
the conduct of their business and ac-
Communications for the public. such as one
would find in an ordinary home.
We are pleased to learn that the rail
road officials recognize the justice of
Snow Hills claim. and we trust that
every citizen of the town will have
pride enough in the matter to lend his
support TO the cause.

A TRUE DEMOCRAT.

Something has been said in the daily
press about the absence or presence of
certain political leaders at the Ocean
City Convention which nominated a
Democratic candidate for Congress last
week.
There is nothing unusual in Hon.
John Walter Smith attending that con-
vention. We do not recall convention
of the Democratic party held at Ocean
City when he was not present. 1t
makes no difference to him who the
candidate is, if he is Democrat he
gets the loyal support Of Worcester $
Democratic leader. His position
regarding the candidacy of Hon
Thomas A. Smith is just the same as il
was when Hons. Charles II. Gibson.
Henry Page, Robert f. Bratten, John
B. Brown, Joshua W. Miles. John p.
Moore and James f. Ellegood were
nominated. He supported everyone Of
them loyalty.
After Senator German deserted him
in his Senatorial contest. although the
Senator was the manipulation of the
last State convention. as everybody
well knows, Governor Smith did not
sulk. but took his seat in the State
convention as a delegate. and gave the
nominee the best support he was capa-
BILE of.
TO save his life he could be nothing
but true man to party or TO friend.
That Governor Smith wants TO see
Hon. Thomas A. Smith elected goes
without saying 1t would be just the
same If the nominee were Hon. Elihu
f. Jackson or any other Democrat.
His interest would be just the same as
under the existing conditions.
We are glad to know that the party
in the First Congressional District was
"A unity in its selection Of Mr.. Smith to
carry to victory the banner Of Democ-
racy in this district.
We hope every Democrat will put his
shoulder to the wheel and help to elect
the candidate. The need Of Democrats
in Congress was never greater, and no
man can call himself a Democrat who
iiunks in his duty mt the election next
November.

Story of eanymede's Birth.

A professor in a Western college,
while giving an examination in myth
ology in country school, called upon
a bright looking girl and asked the
following question: who was Gany-
mede?"
Promptly came the answer: "Gany-
mede was the son of Olympus and an
eagle"
The class teacher blushed for her
pupil and exclaimed, why, Elizabeth!
Where did you learn that?"
Indeed, it says so in the book" re-
piled the girl.
The professor then asked the girl to
find the place and read the paragraph
aloud, whereupon the class was both
astonished and delighted to learn that
Ganymede was borne to Olympus by
an eagle.-Lippincott's Magazine.

Less Hunting in ENGLAND.

From every quarter one hears of the
decreased interest in hunting this sea
son. The general want of money is
only partial explanation, for hunting
can be done very inexpensiyely. To
the disgust of enthusiastic masters of
hounds, motoring, golf and other
sports have arisen in the last few
years, and set up dangerous compe-
tition, for football has for some time
descended in the social scale. and al
most ceased to exist. Until lately there
has been hardly any other winter
sport for the country gentleman ex-
cept shooting and hunting.-London
