Laying pipe Line.

Visitors from Lancaster county
say that one of the most interesting
sights they have ever seen, is that
of the tong men who are connecting
up the pipe on the new pipe line
which the Pure Oil Company is
building through the country.
This gang is composed of forty men,
all perfectly trained in their bust
ness and working like clock work
Each man has his own part and
they can screw up a twenty foot
length of pipe every minute.
Everything is done in perfect time,
the leader beating time like the
leader of an orchestra, only using
a hammer instead of baton. This
is the pounding which can be heard
for miles around the country -

John M. Herring, prohibition candidate
in the recent Mayoralty election in Balti-
more city, expresses the opinion that
there is a growing sentiment for tenn
perance, and that this sentiment is ex-
pressing itself in a wave of prohibition
legislation, which sooner or later will
strike Maryland from one end TO the
other. Mr.. Herring expressed the belief
that Georgia is better off for taking its
firm stand for prohibition. There is
nothing in the talk of the loss to com.
munity resulting from the shutting off of
the liquor traffic. The only losers in
Georgia have been the liquor interests.
Here is a an axiom: When the liquor
traffic gains every other interest in COM
munity loses. 1t is also true: When the
liquor traffic loses every other interest in
the community is bound TO gain.

Congress. Such action is in conformity
with the policy Of Strengthening the navy

President to decide to send battleships 10

The Board of Naval Construction, of
which Rear-Admiral George A. Converse
is head, considered the report of the
Mark Board, which conducted the tests
at Newport and recommended the pur-
chase of eight submarine boats of the

type, Which are stationed at the Mare

The fine of $29, 100000 imposed by
Judge Lands, OF the United States Dis.
trict Court, upon the Standard Oil Com
pany for repeated and fragrant violations
of the Interstate Commerce law is as
popular with the people as it is re-

1t is the heaviest fine ever inflicted
upon an offender, but is is richly de-
served, as the evidence showed conclu.
sively the Standard Oil Company has
continuously violated the law ever since
it was place upon the statute book twenty
years ago.
The Standard Oil Company of course
will appeal to the higher courts, and
should the decision be confirmed would

It is claimed that w. R. Hearst, Of
New York, is making preparations for the
spread of his Independence Leagues
throughout the West, with the view Of
making himself factor in the presidential
campaign lu 1908. The League has
organizations in many States, and has in
the past proven an element in politics in
New York, Connecticut, Massachusetts,
Illinois and California. Colorado is to
be invaded, where ready capital can be
made of the recent trial of the officers Of
the Miners Federation. 1t is also ex.
pected the League will obtain strong
foothold in Missouri, where conditions
seem at present favorable for its organi.
cation and spread. By the spread of the
League propaganda, which has as its aim
the bettermeat of industrial conditions
which have brought about unrest aud
political discount, Hearst plans to occupy
a position in the political field, that will
make him factor in the selection of a
presidential nominee.

AS the result of careful measurement
and weighing, number of farmers in the
Western corn belt have satisfied them
selves that it is to their interest to shell
corn before selling, whereas they had
been in the habit of marketing it on the
ear.
They have found that while seventy
pounds of dry ear corn make bushel,
the allowance for cob being fourteen
pounds, the weight of cobs in the stand
ard weight of dry ear corn is really only
nine and three.quarters pounds. With
corn worth as cents bushel this would
mean loss of four cents for each bushel
of corn in ear form. OF course the cost
of Smelling is to be considered and de-
Quoted, but this cost is in turn nearly
offset by the value of the cobs, while the
expense, in hauling the corn in shelled
rather than ear form would be only about
one.half Their conclusions are that il
pays to shell their corn before marketing.

The Delaware State Board of Agricul-
ture has planned to carry into effect the
immigration act for the relief of Delaware
farmers, in the matter of scarcity of help.
The act carries with it an appropriation
of $2, 900. The plan is TO communicate
with help agencies all over the country,
asking for families to come to Delaware
and assist the farmers of the State in
whatever operation they eau be found
useful, and the employment of an agent
TO visit Finland. Norway, Germany and
other countries, to secure immigration OF
rural laborers to the State.

HEART BURN AND SOUR STOMACH
Quickly Relieved and Permanently
Cured by Rydale's Stomach Tablets.

Heartburn and Sour Stomach are caused by an
acid or sour condition of the stomach. Quick re-
lief is obtained from these distressing symptoms
of Indigestion by taking one or two tablets when
needed. Taken regularly after meals they tone
and strengthen the stomach and enable it to
digest the food and prevent fermentation, which is
the cause of heartburn and sour stomach. Sold
and guaranteed by Eli T. Reynolds.

A national campaign for the enactment
of State law which will prevent judges of
Federal and State Courts from issuing in
functions restricting labor unions will be
waged by the International Moulders'
Union Of North America.
This action has been decided upon by
the Moulders in Convention at Philadel-
phia, and speakers who favored the move
ment sharply criticized certain Judges of
both the Federal and State Courts whom
they declared we're abusive in their,
powers.
In its report the committee on injunc
ton urged the members of the union,
SO, 900 strong, to labor increasingly for the
passage of anti-iniunctiou laws in the
State Legislatures.
One of the most important measures
transacted was the changing of
the name of the body from the Iron
Moulders' Union of North America to
the International Moulders' Union of
North America. This change was made
because the union includes brass, mixed
metal and glass moulders as well as iron
moulders.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

| Immigration officials are now collating
and analysing the figures of the imni
grafton movement to this country for the
fiscal year which ended June 80. That
movement was the greatest in the history
of the country, breaking the record Of
1906.
The total number admitted during the
fiscal year of 1907 was I,2S5,349. The
million mark was passed for the first time
in 1905, when I,o26,4 were admitted
This was beaten in 1906, which showed a
total of I, 1oo,735. But this years figures
exceed those of last year by more than
Ioo, 900.
The growth of immigration to United
States since the Spanish War has been
marvellous. During the past nine years
the number of immigrants admitted has
been as follows:
Immigrants admitted in 1899, 3II,7I5
1900, 44S, 572; 1901, 4S7,9IS; 1902, o4S-
.743; 1908. 357,o49; 1904, 1850; 1905,
1,o26, 49e; 1906. LOO, 735; 1907, 1,2S5,34e
The bulk of these immigrants landed at
New York, though thousands have land
ed at Baltimore. During the fiscal year
1I9o7 the number landed at New York
alone exceeded 1000, 900. The rush
came in the last four months, when the
number landed was over 100, 900 month.
During March IIr,4o5 immigrants
landed at New York. In April the num-
Der landed there was 49, 1884, in May I46,.
5SS and in June 1852. Boston was the
second largest receiving port in 1907, re.
ceivlng 10, 1874.
Baltimore maintained her rank as the
third largest receiving port for immi-
grants, landing 66,eIo, while Philadel-
pha stood fourth, with a total of 3d.
All arrivals. The officials at Baltimore
debarred 32I immigrants and returned
others during the ~ months, which
ended with June 80.

1t is now possible to announce that
definite instructions have at last been
issued by President Roosevelt for the con-
templated cruise of the Atlantic fleet of
battleships.
The fleet under the Presidents personal
order is to go to the Pacific. The battle
ships are now being made ready for the
cruise and will start as soon as the Presi-

early in October.

Land of the Sullen Moor.
ON the Outing Magazine.

From the Outing Magazine.
The supreme ambition of the Moor Is to
be left to himself. to exclude the Christian
from his lands. and to fight out his own
existence according to the dictates of his
religion and OF his ancestors. 1t is this re-
ligious structure. this ever-present idea of
deity to whom they can appeal for help
IN the smallest Of their tasks. this concep-
ton of q power that Is capable Of doing
no wrong and of protecting and guiding it's
followers. which accounts for the peculiar
disregard Of physical punishment. and even
Of death. so characteristic of the Moors

Twice we heard laborers cry to us that
they were going to pray to Mohammed to
give them q sultan who would exclude the
Christians, and what we heard twice seems
to be the universal cry throughout the en-

ity and interest with which they set to their
tasks.
Thus Is a spirit Of independence kept
within those who have been confided to the
kindly minstrations of the sisters, and
these old souls are thus enabled to close
their days In dignifed repose. All this Is
due to the devotion and selfsacrifice of the
good Little Sisters Of the Poor and the
generosity of the Washington public. which
from day to day places food into the hamp-
ers of the Little Sisters as they pass
through the markets and stores Of your
city. 1t Is a great work. and l only wish

to see more of 1t.

too. the home spirit plays a great part.
There Is a popular belief that with old
age and its attendant inf1rmities there comes
disorder and negligence. Such Is not the
case at the Home for the Aged. 1 had
the pleasure Of inspecting the building. and
found everything the acme of orderliness
and neatness.
The first apartment visited was the
chapel. located in the center of the build
ing. 1t Is a large and Hastily decorated
room. containing an altar and the usual ap-
purtenances for Roman Catholic chapel
There were a number of the pious old
ladies at prayer in the chapel when visited
it, and 1 suppose that during the day there
are always some of them to keep a vigil
of prayer and meditation before the altar.
1t must be a source of satisfaction to those
of the inmates who are so inclined to pass
their final days under such auspices.
The chapel was neatness itself. and I
may add that the various other corridors
and apartments throughout the building
were none the less SO.
