]. M. Post, for twelve years editor and
proprietor of the Elkton Appeal, will
retire from the Journalistic field of Cecil
county, having disposed of the newspaper
and plant to the Cecil Wing Publishing
Company of Elkton, with which paper
the Appeal will be consolidated.
Mr.. Post has made many warm friends
in Cecil during his residence in Elkton,
who regret to see him lay down the edi-
torial pen. The Appeal has fourished
and grown under his guiding hand,
which steered it in the republican 'polit-
ical waters, and while the editor at
times no doubt found these stormy he
held true to his course, and commanded
the respect of all, who, with the editors
of the MIDLAND, wish him continued
success in his new field of labor.

Senator Rayner in response to request
of the Baltimore Sun has given his views
on national politics. The Senator does
not look with favor upon Government
ownership of railroads, nor does he think
it would receive the support of demo-
cratic convention. So, too, in his opin.
ion, will Federal referendum and init
iative go by the board.
But the first issue upon which the party
will take resolute stand, he declares, is
tariff revision, which he thinks is bound
to become the paramount question. The
party is also opposed to territorial ex-
pansion, which is destined to become a
vital problem before the people.
Economy in the public service and the
cutting down of extravagant appropria.
tious that in every department are far
beyond the necessities of the case, will be
demanded. The Senator says if the DEM
ocratic party expects to survive it must
take decided stand against executive
usurpation.
The railroad legislation and the trust
legislation, as finally embodied in the
Interstate Commerce act and the Sher-
man bill. are both declared of democratic
origin. and the democrats stand ready as
patty in a greater degree than the re-
publican party, not only to enforce these
statutes. but to amplify and supplement
them whenever the interests of the peo-
pie demand it.
The Senator sees bright future for the
triumph of democratic principles.

Washington is in full summer dress
now, in spite of the belated Spring and
even were it not for the beauty of the
trees along the streets and the gay flowers
in the parks one would know it was SUM-
mer. Two infallible signs prevail that
leave no room for doubt. One is the
tearing up of the asphalt pavements and
the repairs to them that are going on in
all parts of the city, and the other is the
appearance of the window and door
boards in the fine houses which proclaim
that the owners have seen the burglar
wires installed and have departed to the
ends of the earth. Fashionable people
are leaving by every train and by the time
the President leaves, early this week,
scarcely any one who has an entrance to
that hallowed circle known as society"
will be within one hundred miles of the
capital. The Diplomatic families are
fastening away to Europe, TO Newport

LAURENCE WARD,
MIDWAY BOUND,
IS NOW OVERDUE

Along the waterfront some comment
10 beginning to be made In regard To
the length of the voyage which the
Commercial Pacific Gable Co.'S gaso-
line schooner, the Flaurence Ward, is
making to Midway Island. She left
this port with a load Of supplies for
the colony at the cable station twenty
days ago, and no cable has as yet been
received announcing her arrival at her
destination. The cable people say
that while they expected that the ves-
sci would make the voyage In about
ten days, they believe that she must
nave been delayed by Gains, as she
was to make the trip under sail.
Some of the more pessimistic water
frontiers recall the report that the
schooner shortly after she was built
'urncd turtle, but in spite of this she
Is generally credited with being safe
as she carries about $50 tons OF ballast
and Is not especially heavily rugged.
Captain Max Schlemmer, who ar
rived In the Luka this morning from
bis Laysan Island kingdom, intends
to make proposition to have the
Ward call at Laysan on her return
trip for, load of guano, but 1t is not
thought probable that the cable COM
pany will accept his offer Of charter.
