YOUR BEST RiEND.
How Few of Us Appreciate Ou'
Mothers as We Should.

moAtkoLueEy, Nio.y rooEudfy 90.
What a pity that more of the
children OF to-day-not only IN
Montgomery, but every where
do not have more love and sp-
probation for their parents, es-
pecially their mothers. Of course
old Dad gets out and hustlers, sur
mounting the obstacles and over
coming the difficulties of the busy
world that he may provide for his
house, but dear mothers work is
never done. And many children
are so immersed with their pleas
ure-seeking and Indifferent that
they never stop and thank, much
less help, their tired aud s~elf-sac-
rificing mothers, without whom
they would be "like a child crying
ing in the night with no language
but n cry" Such children will
never be what they should be in
this world. Their very Indifference
and lack of appreciation of what
Ia done for them while they are
helpless and dependent lie and
will continue to be q serious i'm
pediment in their progress through
life. Mark that boy or girl who
does not forget mother and father,
and watch how the sunlight of
heaven seems TO beam across his
or her pathway! There is some
thing in them, something TO them.
They seem to have the elements
of suscess hid away In their very
being. God foreordained it. You
never saw or head OF a great man,
q great womenly women who did
appreciate mother and father, es-
pecially mother. God foreordain-
ed it.. But after all, maybe the
parents are mostly to blame in
that they have not from the earli-
est hour inculcated in the minds
of their children the sound and
wholesome doctrine of "honoring
mother and father, the first COM
mandment With PROMISE"
How the writer wishes he could
recall mother, who has long since
fallen asleep. How we would like
to see her dear old face and hear
her kind and loving voice once
more. How we would like to tell
her how we love her and appre-
ciate the great sacrifices she made
for US; how little we did when she
was with US, compared to what we
ought to have done, to make her
life bright and her burdens lighter.
Perhaps we can atone somewhat
by dropping these broken lines
to those here In Montgomery who
still have mother with them, warn
ing and Acknowledging them to take
heed less they let these things
slip until it's to late. Tell mother
and father, too, that you lave
them and will obey them, and il
they have already gone and left
you on the beaten shores of time
ask God to lead you on, DER moor
and fen, until the night Is gone,
and then with those angel faces
you shall abide in the "houss not
made with hands." Il.

Pipe Line Planned.

That pipe line, for conveying
oil or natural gas, is to be con-
structed across the lower section
of Frederick county, is indicated
by the fact that owners of farms
in the neighborhood of Adams
town have lately been solicited
to grant right of way for a pipe
line through their land. Fifty
cents o rod is offered for the right
of way, and some land owners
have signed to give the right OF
way for that price, while others
are still holding off and consid
ering the proposition. The con.
tracts are made in the name OF
W. Raymond Cross, but are trans.
ferrable, and it has been rumored
that the Standard Oil Com
pany is back of he deal.
Under the terms of the con
tract. either gas or il could be
run through the pipe line. Resi-
dents of Adamstown are inter
ested in the project because o.
the possibility that the towr
when the pipe line is in operation
may be provided with natura
gas.

A Pauperized Electorate.

That the Democratic National
Committee is experiencing diff
Guilty in raising adequate funds
may well merit credence when
such unusual methods are moOted
as inducing the labor unions to
impose an assessment for Mr..
Bryan or sending out solicitors to
make direct appeals and to take
mp collections. 1t is impossible
not to sympathlze. not with Mr..
Bryan's managers merely, but
with any honest campaign CON-
mittee which endeavors to raise
money as it should he raised
by the voluntary gift of the many
voters interested in the election.
The truth is that our electorate
has been paupcrized. 1t has
been led, with good ground, to
believe that individuals seeking
private gain or public Office
would put up" money to run
the campaign. Thus only day
or two ago it was announced in
Philadelphia that the Republican
officeholders in that city would be
assessed a certain percentage Of
their salaries. And for WHAT
Not to carry Pennsylvania, but
10 amass a corruption fund for
other States. The voter needs
to be enlig htened as to his duty to
contribute to cause in which he
is vitality interested. His pres
ent attitude reminds one of the
alecdote told of stingy church
member, who always declined to
contribute to the church expenses,
because he said that he believed
that salvation was free. A wise
old deacon who had lahored with
him, retorted: MY friend. we
must discriminate; salvation 10
free, but religion is expensive.v
Politics. like religion, is expen-
sive. The trouble is that the
wrong people have been anxious

Democracy VS.. Plutocracy.

Since practically all of the cor
related evils of Republicauism
and Rooseveltism bear heavily
upon industry, dig deep into the
pockets of labor and Cypress en-
terprise that enjoys no favoring
laws. what better issue could the
Democrats raise this year than
the cost of living!
Cause and effect in govern
mental affairs never were more
closely associated than they are
in the conditions now every
where visible in America. At
Washington We have Congresses
that spend billion . year; .
lingo craze for war and imperial
ism; privilege aud protection for
selected classes; the sale of legis.
lation to the interests that con-
tribute privately to campaign
funds. and an almost complete
failure to give effect to laws pro-
hibiting monopoly, discrimina-
ton and forestalling.
Waste and favoritism at Wash
ingtOn are attended by burden
some taxation, high prices. de.
preston in industry, and idleness
and hardship among the millions
who have no share in the dis
eliminating plutOcratic prosper
ity, of which We hear so much.
Profligacy and privilege for the
few go iB1nin hand now as
always with poverty and suffer
ing for the many.
Followed to their ultimate eff.
fects the notorious wrongs of
Rooseveltism, although varying
widely i'll character, will be found
resting On the backs of enter
prise and labor, at last, sapping
their energies and filching their
earnings. Practically every wise
remedy proposed, such as econ.
'omy, peace. tariff reform, gradu-
atcd income and Inheritance
taxes, publicity Of campaign ex-
penditures and the destruction
of privilege, monopoly and i'm
perialism, would lead unerringly
to one end-cheaper living and
true prosperity
That would be a campaign
issue worth while. 1t would APP
peal to every honest man. It
would be Compensated by every
intelligence. 1t would make for
Democracy and justice 1t would
be clear, logical and convincing.
1t would give life and point to .
campaign that sorely needs in
MIGRATING thought and purpose.
Finally, it would sweep away
false issues and false remedies
that serve only to bewilder and
vex the people.
Living is high, taxes are high
and hardship prevails because
our government is protligate. be-
cause government is in partner
ship with plutocracy and privilege
and because Republication, thor
oughly committed to these
things, will not or cannot apply
the remedies imperatively needed.
