THURSDAY. MARCH 20, 1908.
THE SENATOR SHOULD CON-
SIDER THIS.

Senator Matthias has introduced n
Bill to encourage the killing OF a
number of birds which are ordinarily
supposed to be harmful to the farm
er. This Bill, no doubt has been in
troduced in the best of faith to aid
the farmer in keeping down depreda-
tons committed by these various
animals.
We would suggest to the Senator
that he write the U. S. Department
of Agriculture and get pamphlet
which is printed showing the insccti-
vorous nature of the various birds.
1t will be found that the owl is an
especially useful bird, in that he de-
stroys innumerable field or meadow
mice, and while no one likes a hawk,
yet they are found to be bird that
subsists largely on weed seeds. His
vovacious appetite often impcls him
to 90 after the chickens or young
cartridges, but they would not alone
afford him living. If it were not
for the birds that consume billions
upon billions of noXious weed seeds
annually the farmer would hardly be
able to exist. Protect the birds, who
in turn protect us by destroying
many things that we could not other
wise ourselves destroy.

EMMrTsRuRG. MARCH %, 'O8.

To THE EDITOR OF THE CLARION:
Mr.. Editor. The most interesting up
shot of the local railroad discussion is the
Emmitsburg Chronicles unstinted and
logged panegyrizing of the Emmitsburg
railroad. | have nogrounds to be severe
w critical with that road. 1t has done
its work and it's original promoters as
well. and it seems to be no more indulgant
to it's present supporters, but that is no
fault of it's own and consequently it is not
blameworthy. 1t has not added unit to
the population of Emmitsburg nor CT
pher to it's capital. Emmitsburg is just
where it was prior to the roads construc-
ton, and the occasional upholstering and
painting of the coaches, or purchase of
new engine with monster whistle that
empties the boiler when it is blown and
fills mountain and valley with raucous re-
verberations, appears to have no other
appreciate effect than toreduce the div
idends already microscopic.
A neighbor of mine who has made some
Investigations, after the manner of the
Editor of the Chronicle, declares that it's
cross ties are composed of punk or caked
sawdust, and the roadbed is ballasted
with egg shells, and hence the inspired
song the college boys are said to sing
when en- route home: "Rolling Home.
Yet, the Chronicle opines that this road
is indispensable to Emmitsburg. The ed
itor of that paper ought to know for he
intimates that he has had access to the
books and management of the road, but
| wonder if he didn't mean that Emmits-
burg is indispensable to the road?
A road that requires its patrons to await
the long and numerous delays of the w.
M. R. r., that is composed of mixed trains
in which the freight receives preference,
that holds up the trains while cattle is
embarked, does not seem to be entitled
to any particular veneration, especially
when it is remembered that its rates
would be considered outrageous on troll
ley line. =, =,
When the Chronicle declared, with all
the solemn gravity that belongs to the
genus owl, that the road is dividend pay
ing, rubbed my eyes in astonishment
that had been so long ignorant of gilt
edge investment, and feverishly grasped
the New York Herald and the Emmts-
burg Chronicle to ascertain how its stock
was quoted on the exchange. No quota
tons! A significant question from the
columns of theCLARION elected the quiet
ing information that the dividends were
small and declared only in recent years.
Suchreflections, unpleasant to the man
agement of the E. R. r. and infuriating
to the editor of the Chronicle are the nat
ural products of the stubborn attitude of
that paper in attempting to dragoon it's
readers into foolish affection for the E.
R. r. If he only recognized that his
frothy efforts have an effect the reverse
of what he intended, that his eXaggera-
lions of it's value and utility naturally
awaken considerations of its shortcomings
and inefiiciency, he would give more at
tention to the inanties of the column en-.
titled "Not Too Serious" and less to at
tempts to warp the well-grounded views
of his readers and to persuade them to
regard the E. r. r. as the most adora-
BILE kind of fetish.

Another Stable Burned.

On Thursday night of last week the
stable on the property belonging to Mr..
p. N. Hammaker and known as the
"Anders" property on Church street,
this place, was destroyed by fire between
the hours of IL and o'clock a. m
When the fire was discovered it was
found that the upper portion was all
ablaze. Prompt and effective work by
those first on the scene with fire APP
paratus soon had the fire under control
and saved number of dwellings in close
proximity. In the NOW of the stable
was quantity of hay and straw belong
ing to Mr.. John Root, Mr.. E. l.. Root
recently occupied the property. This is
the fourth stable that has been burned in
Thurmont inside of sixty days. We can
not make ourselves believe that there is
"frebug" at work, or that these fires
are of incendiary origin. Luckily there
was no wind during the fires; had there
been, the loss, instead of being several
hundred dollars in each instance, would
have been many thousands.

MiddletOWn Lots Claimed.

Frederick, Md, March 24.-Emory L..
Coblentz, of .Middletown, received let
ter from l.. D. Cornwall, an attorney, of
Shreve, Wayne county, Ohio, soliciting
his services in recovering ground rents
for more than 100 years on every lot in
Middletown.
Mr.. Shreve stated that he represented
heirs who formerly owned the site upon
which Middletown is built and consider
able of the famous Middletown Valley.
The ground rents, as well as the owner
ship of farm land, comes as a great sur
prise to Middletown people, who are not
worried over the prospect of again pay
ing for their homes.
Being a Middletown real estate owner,
Mr.. Coblentz has declined to take up the
case.-Sun.
