,ollege. 1t is located fifteen miles
from Baltimore and is one of the
very best educational institutions in
our State. The college was founded
during The time Of the Civil War
and has ever since been a great as
set to the people of this common
wealth. The college is SO well known
throughout this State and country
that il hardly needs any commenda-
ton from us as a school of learning and
its thorough fitness for good edu-
cation. 1t has one of the finest To-
cations, being situated on a high hill
overlooking Ellicott City, and its
water ming from the best sources
is extremely fresh and healthy.
There has been little sickness among
the students during its existence.
As teachers the Chris tan Brothers
we believe have no equal in this
country.
The records of its students who
have gone into the world speak for
it. In this State alone some of them
are to-day wearing the Judicial ermine,
Others are practising the professions
of law and medicine with such a sue
cess that not only the college is
proud of them but the people of the
State are equally proud to have them
as citizens.
Those who have entered other
walks Of life have also made records
for themselves that they can always
look upon with pride. We vouch-
safe to say that no parent will make
a mistake by sending their sons
there.
1t is the purpose of tho college to
grind into their students the best ed
ucation possible, thereby, fitting them
for any station in life. The course
is high and thorough. Though a
Catholic Institution it is ready and
glad to receive students of all de-
nominations.
This County has furnished large
quota Of its students in the past and
we hope that it will not relax in the
future. Knowing the institution as
we do, We urge every parent in this
County, and section Of the State to
send for a catalogue and visit the in
stitution and see it for yourselves. I'll

Railroad from Washington and by

GOOD ROADS AGAIN.

Some municipal problems seem never
to become completely solved, and one
of this class is that of improving the
means of transportation between cities.
Good roads movements are always
with US
As their object Is education, and their
means publicity working for the public
welfare. they usually find warm re-
ception, and cordial support. II after
many columns of newspaper space is
used. and many fine speeches made.
some practical county commissioner is
induced to dump two loads OF sharp
cornered small rock, where before he
dumped only load of round cobbles,
then the publicity has not been under
taken in vain.
Just now the people of salt Lake, un-
der Mr.. Orson Hewlett, and the people
of Weber county, under Joseph Perry
are attempting to get a better road be-
tween Salt Lake and Ogden. Automo-
bile parties will use II more. II II Is
built. but the automobile enthusiasts
declare they are working as much for
the buggy and wagon driver as for
themselves, and that their movement is
associated with antagonism to scorch-
Ing in all its forms
Any movement which condemns
searching is 10 be commended. and II
to get good roads, the automobile fra
ternity has decided to open fire on its
own extremists, they will find a public
sentiment much in their favor.
On July S an automobile mass meet
ing viii be held at Lagoon. Automo-
bile drivers, and all who care for the
good roads movement have been in
vited to attend. From their discussion
much enlightenment should come con-
corning the most practical way to Inn
prove at least one of the states chief

Low BIRTH RATE.

French depopulation" is a. familiar
phrase. The publication of the vital
statistics in France never fails to cause
a discussion OF the steady decline "
her birth rate and the grave conse-
quences, military and other, TO be APP
pretended. Until now, however de
population" has been used in loose
sense, for, after all, up 10 the publlca-
ton of the figures for 1907, no one ex-
pected an actual excess OF deaths over
births, The average annual increase Of
population had been slight, but there
had been an Increase. Last year, fer
the first time since the agitation began.
there was a decrease. The deaths eX-
ceeding the births-the figures being
$4,000 deaths to 774,OO0 births. Wheth-
or this showing will change the OPP
timistiG views of those modern"
thinkers who claim that her low birth
rate is frances proudest distinction
and the olearest proof of her culture,
her desire for comfort and happiness
her horror of congestion, filth, misery
disease, is a question. AS to the ma
jority OF thinkers, they will doubt
less cudgel their brains even harder
to devise anti-race suicide remedies.

ANOTHER COLONY IN TROUBLE.

The founder OF the Esperanza society
is reported to be in trouble. The orig
inator OF this organization is Finland
er, John Albertus, who is said to have
spent many years of his life trying to
solve the problem of communistic CO.
operation Some years ago he dlscov-
cred tho beautiful Parana valley in
the Argentine republic, and secured
some concessions from the government.
Then he began gathering colonists.
The story of this colonizer goes on
to recount how he came to San Fran
cisco a little over a year ago and APP
peared at various meetings and secured
enough members TO start the brother
hood which he represented at first as
merely a lodge In which cooperation
was to be discussed and studied and
socialism explained When these first
members of the Universal Cooperative
Brotherhood realized that they were To
pledge themselves TO be part OF a new
colony, many dropped out. But many
remained, and, presently. Albertus had
lodges In San Francisco, Philadelphia.
New York. and perhaps other places.
Then he went TO South America and
sent home glowing reports of success
IN the matter of securing concessions.
But serious trouble seems to have de-
veloped. Some Of the men who were to
have assisted Alhertus in the work
OF colcnizing abandoned the leader at
- h.,
to report on their experiences.
II we want to appreciate the success
Of the I.attcr-day Saints I'm colonising
wherever their lot has been cast, their
work should be compared TO that OF thu
numerous imitators who have followed
them Although the latter had the
pattern Of the Church leaders before
them and were as "a rule, well equip
ped with money. and although they
generally secured the hest locations
obtainable for their experiments. they
have generally failed. The Latter-day
Saints have transformed deserts into
gardens and bullt thriving cities, while
lighting starvation, grasshoppers and
Indians
While contemplating the failures OF
many colonies planned ON a corpora
tive basis, II Is pleasant to read about
the phenomenal success achieved by
the cooperative societies Of England
For many years these saHleties have
given members the benefit Of the pro-
NJ on handling the various classes OF
goods. Now. according 10 the london
correspondent Of the New York sun,
movement has actively begun 10 COM
bine and nationall2e all these separate
cooperative organizations In one So
ciety During the early part OF the
month the annual congress OF these
various organizations was held in Mon

bershlp OF 100000, which. with their
families, would mean ten million per-
