As to
Democratic Harmony.


The Montgomery Journal, which has
been a staunch exponent Of real democ-
racy ever since Horace Hood came
into the control of its editorial poll
cies; has the following on the subject
OF Democratic harmony:
The Birmingham Ledger wants har-
mony in the democrats party. 1t has
way of its own for bringing it
< about Here is its plan, briefly and
pointedly stated, and upon its face it
has every appearance of fairness:
Several weeks since the Ledger
counseled the party to be tolerant and
let every faction have a full oppOrtun-
ity to present its candidate and its
ideas to the party and to the national
convention. Delaware democrats must
be allowed to present Judge Gray and
give their reasons to the convention.
The friends of Governor Johnson must
be allowed to present his name and
the favorable points TO be considered
in his case. So. with all who are can
didates. Every consideration must be
shown TO every man who has anything
to present
There is no objection to the friends
and other supposedly available men,
bringing them forward for the demo-
cratic nomination for president and
to present their claims to the next ma
tional democratic convention is the
motives of those who are foremost in
Nrging the candidacy of Judge Gray
and others that are impugned by
those democrats now really seeking
harmony not disafection. Judge Gray
ds q good man, a strong man, and Gov
ernor johnson is worthy of all the
kind words Of his friends; but both
are handicapped by the character of
their support, by the character and
doubtful democratic records of those
leading in the advocacy of their nom
nations
OF course both Judge Gray and Gov
ernor johnson have many true and
sincere friends, true and loyal demo
Gratis, who would like to see them
nominated, but these real friends are
unfortunately handicapped by those
who are not real friends of the men
nominated, but who seek by these
means not harmony, as the Ledger
suggests, but strife and discord.
We think the proper way to bring
about harmony is for the minority to
yield to the will of the majority, with
out trying to bring into-the Denver
convention any evidences of former
democratic strife and division.
All of which is sometimes expressed
I'm the proposition that the tail should
not try to wag the dog. We trust
that our contemporary suggestion
will be adopted

DANGEROUS FIRE
AT SYKESVILLE
Plant Of the Sykesvi1le Milling
Company Was Destroyed
By Fire.

A fire which destroyed one OF Sykes
ville's industries and entailed severe
loss upon the owner, broke out at
about $3.50 o'clock "Wednesday morn
ing and only the hand of kind prov
idence prevented the blaze from
spreading and wiping out the majority
of buildings OF town.
The fire was discovered by Jehu
Jehu and j. j. Jefferies at the hour
above mentioned at the plant OF the
Sykesville Milling Company which was
located near to their homes and also
close to the business corner Of town.
When discovered, the flames had
gained such headway as to make
1t impossible to save the plant 80 that
Messrs. Jehu and Jeffries started out
through the town calling a general
alarm.
The innammable character of the
buildings in the neighborhood and
the lack OF water to combat the flames
caused CONSERVATION among those who
had been rudely aroused from their
slumbers and those who had collected
at the scene OF the fire could only look
on and hope that the blaze would not
spread to the adjoining buildings.
A slight fall of rain and heavy at
mosphere kept the sparks and heat
within a safe limit and although some
of the nearby houses we're for a short
time in great danger and there was
practically no water to stay the flames
should they spread, no other buildings
were ignited.
The plant of the Milling Co. was
totally destroyed. The loss as esti-
timated by A. L. Zimmerman, the
owner, is s6,500, against an insurance

EMPIRE TUNNEL
ALMOST FINISHED
Big Project on the B., R. & P.
Will be Completed By
December First.

1t is expected that work will be COM
pleted on the big tunnel at Empire on
the B., r. & P. road In another month
and that before December lst trains
will be going through it. The work
of double tracking this piece of the
road between Brockwayville and EN-
pire has been going on for about two
years and has cost a great many
thousands of dollars, some fifteen hum
dred men being employed at one time
on the grading Of the road and building
the tunnel.
The fine mason work on both ends
OF the tunnel has just been finished, and
the work OF lining the inside with
brick and cement is fast drawing to
a close. Railroad men who have been
watching the work. think it will likely
be completed in a month or six weeks,
and it is likely trains will be whirling
through this great long tunnel about
the first of December. This improve
ment will be a great help to the road in
handling their trains and give them
better grade. .-Brockwayville Record.

crossing the railroad company is not
