ought a man in politics to be com

young man who is learning the states
manship business.
We'll" answered Senator Sorghum,
"he should not go to an extreme eth

tell all he knows becomes bore
and the man who seems afraid 10
tell anything he knows becomes an
object OF suspicion"

Postal Work.

Ascum-Say, what is the difference
between a fourth-cAass and a third
class post Office; do you know?
Wise-Well, in the former the post
master always finds time to read all
the postal cards himself; in the latter,
sometimes he doesn't.

"The old, old story" explained the
husband, with long-drawn sigh, as
he laid down his paper. another man
committed suicide because his home
was unhappy"
"And did that make his home any
happier?" asked his wife. "Or does
the paper say?"

Our
Farmers
Trade
Is
Growing

During the past six months
our trade among the farmers
was more than doubled. Why?
For one reason we have been
making a play for the country
business, offering the highest
cash price for produce, or we
have taken the produce in trade
allowing very liberal prices. We
need the farm produce. We have
q great demand for eggs, butter,
ETC., in our store, and consider
this just as good to as as money.
Another thing, the farmers
have learned that they can &C
tualF save money by buying
their groceries at this store.
They have learned that we are
not sshot-air" merchants, and
have learned to take what we
say as the truth. We have
"made good" in every respect.
If anyone ever buys a thing at
this store, which does not prove
satisfactory, we are more than
glad to make it right. But
chances are ninety mine to one
that what you get here will just
suit you. We buy our groceries
fresh, turn them over often, sell
for cash or it's equivalent, have
no bad accounts, and therefore
can give you better prices.
If you are not already our
customer, we will be pleased to
have you drop around and give
us q trial anyway.

A Lincoln Memorial.

From the Washington Post.
A magnificent highway extending
from this city to Gettysburg, dis
lance of II miles, as national mem
orial to Abraham Lincoln, is the rec
ommendation made yesterday by
James T. McCleary, Second Assistant
Postmaster General and formerly a
member of Congress from Minnesota
to the Abraham Lincoln Memorial
Commission. Mr.. McCleary's recon-
mendation is contained in a prelim1-
nary report to the commission, OF
which he is a member.
In 1905, Mr.. McCleary was sent as
the special representative of the COM
mission to Europe to study the great
national memorials of the different
countries. He gathered facts in re-
gard to arches, shafts, memorial
bridges, buildings, and statues, and
his recommendation is the result OF
these studies.
The Abraham Lincoln Memorial
Commission was Appointed by Con-
gress and consists OF Senator Wet
more, of Rhode Island, chairman; Sec
rotary of State; Secretary of War;
Representative Mccall, of Massachu-
setts,. former Representative James
d. Richardson, of Tennessee, and Mr.
McCleary. An appropriation of $751;
600 was provided for the work of this
commission

A Home Gathering.

Last Sunday, July 5, will long be
remembered as pleasant social
gathering by the children and grand
children of Mrs. Julia A. Dorsey, wild
ow of the late Jonathan M. Dorsey.
1t had been several years since all
were together at the old homestead,
and Sunday was appointed for all to
come. The day was an ideal one, and
all responded to the cordial invitation
of Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Dorsey to
spend the day at Green Meadow" and
see Jonathan, Jr This little tot, now
a month old, is the 4th generation of
Jonathan Dorsey's born on the old
farm, and justly proud and happy are
Mr.. and Mrs. Dorsey over the birth of
their son. They have two daughters,
Eleanor Warfield and Julia Stocks
dale, aged respectively and years.
The children present were Mr.. and
Mrs. Jonathan Dorsey, Mr.. and Mrs.
H. Marriott Shipley, Mr.. and Mrs.
Harry r. Devries, Messrs. Benjamin
and GOWN M. Dorsey and the grand
children were Misses Eleanor and
Julia Dorsey and Jonathan, Jr., Master
Dorsey Shipley, Mildred L. Shipley,
Misses Ruth and Bessie Dorsey, and
Miss Helen Gehr, of Westminster, as
visitor. All gathered around the
dining table, which was bountifully
spread with viands good for the inner
man, followed by peach ice cream and
cakes, to which all did ample justice.
After dinner all repaired to the lawn
and enjoyed the shade under the To-
Gust trees, and it was indeed an old
time social reunion, the mother and
grandmother looking on and mingling
with the children and grandchildren,
thoroughly enjoying the pleasure of
having them all around her. All
three sons are great horsemen, es-
pecially Ben, and later in the after
noon he brought one of his Kentucky
horses, Colonel" by name, from the
stable and showed what intelligence
a horse possesses. When told to
make a bow "Colone1'' would do so
most gracefully, and he can jump a
hurdle with ease and grace, clearing
it In fine style. Each of the grand
children had ride on Colonel" and
GOWN remarked that Ben was as
much a child as any of them. All
fingered until the cool of the even
ing, and then departed, expressing
themselves as having spent a most de-
lightful day, and wishing many happy
returns and repetitions of the day at
the old homestead, long renowned for
the hospitality of its occupants.

the road. However this Is matter
for future consideration.
Looking a little further ahead it
is not difficult to anticipate a great
national highway extending from the
Atlantic to the Pacific, with this Lin
coin memorial roadway from Wash
ington as it's first step. Governor
Steuart's project for roadway from
Philadelphia to Pittsburg suggests the
later extension of the Lincoln memo
rial road through York to Harrisburg
to Join with this other highway. There
would thus be established a great
highway between Washington and the
west, with York and Gettysburg
directly upon it's path.
81 would like to say in reference to
the Lincoln memorial road, that it
will be a model in road building. Com
petent persons have appropriated
it's cost. 1t will not only be properly
constructed, but all sorts of beautiful
effects will be designed and carried
out at different points. 1t will
be properly lighted, parked and
policed. 1t will eventually be lined
with beautiful and attractive country
homes. The entire distance between

Nothing more fitting could be de-
signed than this roadway to perpetu-
ate the memory of Lincoln, marking,
as it will, the place in Washington
where his great career began, and
eliminating at the spot where he de-
1ivered his famous Gettysburg speech,
which in importance to the nation is
second only to the Declaration of In

Two Memorial Highways.
Editorial in Washington Post.


The suggestion that a modern high
way be constructed between Washing
ton and Gettysburg, as a national
memorial to Abraham Lincoln, has
been made by Second Assistant Post
master General McCleary, a member
of the Lincoln memorial commission.
The road would be " miles long, and
would be built, of course, in the most
enduring manner. 1t would go through
a picturesque and historic country,
beginning at the White House and
ending on the field where Lincoln de-
livered his imperishable address.
1t is a novelty in this country to
suggest road as memorial to a
famous man. But a moments consid-
Grafton shows that the suggestion has
much merit. A great highway, such
as the Romans knew how to build,
has the combined merits of dignity,
usefulness, and permanence. 1t does
not crumble, nor topple over, nor be-
come archaic; its simplicity is adj
mirable, and by its very nature it
shares in the life OF the people, so
that the story 1t teaches is never for
gotten. The Lincoln road to Gettys-
burg would lead men for centuries to
a field that must become more and
more holy ground, and every foot of
the way would testify to the simple
majesty of the character whose MEM
DRY was perpetuated. The road would
pass through this District and into
two States. The governments OF those

To Commemorate Lincoln.

From the BALTIC. Evening News.
Upon the eve of the Fourth of July
comes a proposition that will have
strong appeal to the patriotic senti-
ment of the country Following UP
Postmaster General McCleary to the
Abraham Lincoln Memorial Associa-
ton, Congressman Lafean, of Penn
sylvania, announces his intention to
introduce in Congress bill providing
for the construction of a 150-foot
wide highway between Washington
and Gettysburg as a memorial to
President Lincoln. The proposed
road will run direct from Washington
to Westminster and then on to GettyS-
burg.
AS the proposal has already aroused
the interest of President Roosevelt,
Senator Knox and other leaders, it
will not be permitted to lag. The
good-roads people all over the coun-
try will hail the enterprise as in
augurating federal participation in
their favorite movement, the projec-
tors of a revival of the old national
turnpike will probably see in this
proposition a partial realization of
their aim, while the patriotic senti-
ment will be appealed to by the
uniqueness and appropriateness of the
project Gettysburg and Washington
are closely linked, in view of the
bearing of the great battle of the
noted field upon the fortunes of the
nation. The man who was at the
helm had his eyes fixed upon the spot
where the greatest array of men were
contesting the issues that involved
to a large degree the progress of the
war. Maryland, from every point of
view, will be glad to see the movement
take definite shape.
