decision of Mr.. Straus, Secretary Of
Commerce and Labor, that the assist
ance extended to immigrants blythe
State of South Carolina through its
Commissioner is not contrary to the
contract-labor law. The movement has
now reached Maryland. The farmers
clubs Of Montgomery county have led
off by an appeal to Governor Warfield,
asking that the Maryland Bureau of I'M
migration be directed to proceed in the
manner followed by South Carolina.
1t is to be noted that the South Caro-
lima Bureau has special authority of law
for its action and is supplied with the
necessary funds. The law of that State
puts the business in the hands of a
Commissioner, and provides that he may
make arrangements with steamship
companies and immigration agencies in
this country and abroad, and that the
necessary expenditures may be made
out of the annual appropriation for the
department, although the Commissioner
is not forbidden to act without fee as
the agent of citizens of the State. who
wish to meet the expense of bringing
desirable immigrants to their lands or
property. This covers the case in
which the Commissioner brought over
operatives for the cotton mills, and per-
mitted the Department of Commerce
and Labor to render the decision de-
claring that he had acted within the
law.
The practical success of the South
Carolina law is due to the fact that in
stead. of merely inviting immigration
the State goes after it. Commissioner
Watson went abroad and made personal
arrangements to get the kind of immi-
grants desired, and to see that they got
direct transportation. Now that the
movement has started, the first batch
OF immigrants are themselves sending
back money TO help others to come.
One of those immigrants arranged with
the Commissioner to bring ten members
of his family. The next steamship load
of immigrants direct for South Caro-
lima leaves Europe on January Is. If
the immigrants continue to find condi-
lions of employment in Sonth Carolina
satisfactory, the flow of labor will con-
tinue through natural influences. The
success of South Carolina shows what
may be done by taking hold in the right
way. To get similars results. Mary
land will have to employ similar means.

AGAINST BLENDED WHlSKEY.

Secretary Wilson said Saturday that
his visit to some of the Baltimore dis
tilleries Friday had been productive of
good results. The Secretary was ac-
companied by DR.. H. w. Wiley. They
examined the operations of two dis
tilleries, one blending establishment,
and gin still, with view to ascer-
tanning how the liquors are made. They
got information they had not been able
to obtain by conferences with distillers.
At the gin still which they visited only
six barrels of the liquor are manufac-
tured each day. 1t is pronounced pure
by DR.. Wiley, but not gallon of it is
sold in the market. 1t is sold exclu-
sively to blenders, who mix the pure gin
with neutral spirits and some favoriag
material, and that product is put on the
market as gin. AS another result of
their investigation, it was discovered
that three-fourths of the straight
whiskey made in this country is sold to
blenders, who use it in connection with
spirits and fiavoring and coloring mat
ter to make their products.
AS result of the investigation il is
probable Secretary Wilson will not re-
cede from his decision, based on the pure
food and drug acts, in which he held
that the so-called blended whiskies, -
artificially colored and favored, were
spurious limitations" of whiskey and
that "the mixture of such an imitation
with a genuine article cannot be re-
garded as mixture of like substances
within the letter and intent of the law. &"
The blenders object to this decision,
and have tried to induce Secretary Will
son to recede from it or, at least, to
modify it, but the indications are that
he will stand by it squarely.

man and the average woman are the
pestiferous experiences that wear out
tempers and becloud sunshiny DISPOSE
tons and imperil the most important
relations and interests of our humanity.
There is something particularly an
noying in the experience of having ones
plans upset by any small physical or
material failure or breakdown. If
newspaper plant is badly damaged by
earthquake or fire, the whole force of
the printery, from devil to editor,
works with unwonted energy, exalta-
ton and efficiency; but let the ''folder"
go into fit of total depravity and re-
fuse to work just at press time, with
scant margin to make the mails, and
there will be nothing exalted in the
spiritual condition of that printing office
for the time being, from turret to
foundation stone
In the cultivation of character as in
the conduct of a business there must be
careful attention to details to insure
success. Don't neglect to note the eff
feet that the everyday pin-pricks are
having upon your disposition. They
may if neglected produce a kind of
spiritual eczema, an abnormal sensitive
ness and chronic irritability, which is
one of the most unlovely developments
of which human character is capable.
AS in the case of most chronic dis
orders. physical as well as spiritual,
Prophylactic precautions are easier and
more effective than curative treatment,
and the best protection against the bad
effects of the inevitable pin-pricks is
the cultivation of a sense of humor and
a sense of proportion. If you never
take pin-prick for more than the in
significant and inconsequential thing it
really is there can be no serious result
from it. If the multitude of them never
goad you beyond the point of good
natured humorous kick the pesky things
can never do any real damage to your
disposition.

WOULD TOMAHAWK GOV. WAKEFIELD
State Senator German on the Warpath
After naryland's Chief Execution.

State Senator Arthur P. German
made an address before the Concord
Club of Baltimore on Tuesday, in which
he attacked Gov. Warfield by inference,
and practically called him traitor to
his party. The club is one of the lead
ing organizations of Baltimore, and an
nually celebrates jackson day. On this
occasion Senator German was request
ed to be the orator of the evening.
Some reference to the governor was ex-
pected, and the hall was crowded with
representatives, Democrats. Mr.. Cor
man, it is understood, will lead the
fight against Warfeld in Howard Coun-
ty, in which both reside, and the attack
Of Tuesday night was the first gun of
his campaign. Judging from the line
of argument, Mr.. German will make
the disfranchisement amendment which
the governor opposed the basis of his
attack. He said in part:
I'm this State of ours we have not
always followed the sound and sane
policies which guided Andrew Jackson.
We have not always found Democrats
true who should have been true to the
party which elected them and to its
principles. In recent years we have
witnessed the sad spectacle of man
elected as Democrat who failed to do
what he was elected TO do
The people in their might decided
this should be white mans State. We
won grand victory, but, alas, the man
who was instructed by the people to
represent their will was wanton. He
forsook the cause of the people. He
threw obstacles in the way of an express
sion of the people. Some mysterious
influence seemed to be at work to divert
him from the cause of the people.
But, my friends, this is only tenn
porary defeat. The white man of Mary
land is aroused No man or set of men
can defeat the great principles of Jack
son."
Mr.. German then paid his respects to
the Independent Democrats, who, he
said, could not be classed as Democrats.
He also criticised the Democratic news
paper in Baltimore, which, he declared.
were unfair to the party.

mo COMPLICATED law, nor scientific
engineer, nor extravagant Expenditures
are necessary to accomplish great i'm
provements in existing road conditions.
The chief engineer of the Highway Bu-
reau of Maryland has recently stated
that % $40 miles of model road has
been completed in the last year at a
cost of over $4,000 This means,
therefore, that each mile has cost about
Sc, 500. Under local, self-government
plan of building roads equally as dura-
bic and as good can be constructed at
half that cost. Indeed, excellent roads
have been built in the past few years
in Washington county for about 81 900
mile.
Such is the expression of President
Armstrong of Hagerstown, who presid-
ed at recent meeting of the Maryland
Turnpike Association. In his address
Mr.. Armstrong said the most impor-
tant economic question confronting the
State of Maryland today is how to Sc
cure an improved public road system at
an outlay commensurate with the means
of the taxpayers. Mr.. Armstrong
seemingly views an important question
from standpoint worthy of consider
alton.

First Newspaper in Preston.

The first newspaper ever printed in
Preston county, W. Va, was issued
from the old log house still standing on
the farm owned by NJ. F. Chorpenning
about one and one half miles south of
Brandonville on the Terra Alta pike.
This house was built in the year 1894
and is still standing and in fair condi-
ton although 112 years old. The exact
date of the first issue of this paper
called the Mt. Pleasant Printing Press
is not gwen but it was some time during
the year 1850. The farm on which the
old house is located was purchased by
Jonathan Chorpenning, father of the
present owner of the place, contains
10 acres with about 100 acres in a good
state of cultivation and 60 acres of
white oak timber. The farm was taken
up and patented by Isaac and Samuel
FOrman, who were Quakers, in the year
1894, and the house and barn built the
same year. The shingles on the barn
were placed there 70 years ago.

THE VALUE OF WOODLANDS.

Occupying as it does, the rocky, ster-
lie soil, or the equally untillable swampy
lands, the woodlot is the most neglected
part of the farm. Were it not for the
excellent natural conditions favoring
forest growth i'll Maryland, our wood
lands would long ago have refused to
yield their valuable products in retail
alton for our neglect and wanton waste
OF their resources. But a new order of
things is coming into being. The far
mer is awakening to the fact that wood
is just as much crop as hay or corn,
that intelligent care will bring better
yield and will increase the value of the
property. A good woodlot is like good
buildings, good fences an improve
ment with market value when it be-
comes desirable to sell.
The most important function Of the
woodlot is to supply the farmer with
the required fuel and construction ma
terial needed on the farm. There is a
constant demand for fence posts, rails,
stakes, and poles as we'll as an occasion
al need of saw logs for making the nee
essary framing material and boards tor
farm buildings. In addition to this the
farmer often finds that he can sell tim
Der for cross-ties, poles, piling, ETC.. at
good price.
The single item of fire wood is an i'm
portant one to the farmer. In one of
the counties of the State where the av-
erage rural conditions exist it was
found, by careful estimate, that the
average annual consumption of fire
wood per family was about IA cords. If
the farmer had to buy this, or haul coal
from distant railroad station, it would
be quite tax. He can cut his wood
at most convenient times when other
farm work is not pressing so that the
fuel he uses is practically that much
gained. The firewood taken from the
woods, if it is the dead material as is
generally the case, is really an improve
ment to the woodlot and cannot be con-
sidered as reducing the growing stock.
The woodlot serves other purposes
which, though not so apparent as those
that have been given, are none the less
of Importance. These are in the nature
of protection. A woodlot surrounding
the home and farm buildings, or located
on the windward side of them, affords
protection to both man and beast. This
means not only added comfort, but a
saving of food and fuel.
@Woodlands at the source of streams
or near springs tend to preserve in
them an even flow throughout the year.
1t is well known fact that. wood
land springs live through periods of
drought when those not protected bv
trees dry up.
Windbreaks of trees also have a very
beneficial influence in checking evapora-
ton of moisture over adjacent cultivat-
ed fields during windy, dry weather.
The woodlot is just as essential to a
well ordered farm as buildings or any
thing else that contributes to the COM
fort, convenience, and beauty of the
surroundings
