and then complete the test in a two

seven hundred yards on the double

THE OLD AND NEW YEAR,


A visitor TO The connty, IN a mo-
ment Of reflection unon the Old Year
and the New, penned the follow
ing inspiring sentiments, which he
sends to the INDEPENDENT
Silently the year Of 1908, amidst
the forgetfulness Of the world, has
vanished, never to return again. How
many joys and sorrows loves and
hates, lives aad deaths, have in a
Kaleidoscope vision passed before
oar eyes, filling the human heart with
a conglomeratiun Of sentiments. And
now, with the beginning of the New
Year, we believe there shall be a
changed Love is not alone the soul
of the universe. The beautiful god.
dess, Hope, reigns over the spirit Of
men. lit were not for her caress-
ing hand, her tender influence, life
itself would be deprived Of its per
lection. Hope, sweet Hope! The
little innocent baby while rocked by
the loving mother hopes for a smile
look, a lullaby. The infant, while
absorbed in the contemplation of the
play things about him, hopes for
something even greater if be has a
country home surrounded by trees in
their full splendor, he wishes for a
palace Of gold, with princes and prin-
cesses aitired in their robes of gala.
The young man, the young woman,
pride of some simple fireside, in
whose heart Love has founded a
temple, Hope is there to cherish, to
entreat, to command. Even the
old, the weary, the down cast,
hopes for happy death. Imagine,
Hope and Death two contradic-
tory entities mingled together iu the
expression of an idea.
The New Year has made its tri-
umphant entrance today. What a
glorious day ! Nature itself, in its
different manifestations, welcomes
the New King. Let us hope, hope
for all that is sweet, for all that is
dear to the human heart
To the MARYLAND INDEPENDENT
and Its subscribers my best wishes
are extended for a prosperous and
happy New Year. May the sun of
Love and Hope never set on this
beautiful spot we call Charles County.

nANY THOUSANDS KILLED.

One of the greatest tragedies that
has ever befallen the Christian world
occurred on Monday, December 30,
when according TO the latest reports
about one hundred thousand people
lost their lives in a terrible earth
quake in Southern Italy. 1t was one
OF the greatest disasters Of the worlds
history. Messins, the second largest
city of Sicily, with population of
$4,000, suffered the loss of one-half
of its population, while Reggio's
death list is declared to consist of
nearly its entire population of 49,
600 The Pope promptly came to
tie assistance of the survivors of the
awful catastrophe by contribution
Of 100000, and the King bias given
100000. The unfortunate people
have the sympathy Of all nations.

LAWFULLY GUILTY AND DESERVE
PUNISHMENT.


The holiday sensation in Wash
ington was the conviction and SEN
tence Of the President, vice president
and the secretary Of the American
Federation Of Labor for contempt to
Zone year, nine months and six
months respectively confinement in
Jail. All three Of them are well
known men and GomDers and Morri-
son have long been residents Of
Washington City. Mitchell has
been conspieuously houored by the
President and recently at the con-
vention Of the Governors at the
White House he was photographed
sitting at the right hand of the Pres
ident while Carnegie was on bis left.
Since the sentence was pronounced
kilograms and letters have been
pouring in upon the President from
labor leaders and ORGANIZATIONS
throughout the country evidently as
suming that the President has power
to interfere with a dect.ion of the
court This lamentable ignorance
on the part of leaders of labor organ
izations doubtless explains a great
deal of their loose talking and law
less acting. A little knowledge of
law, if they are capable of digesting
it, would do much to clarity murky
minds and temper loose language.
Judge Wright's remark in his decis-
ion that it was the duty Of a litigant
to obey an injunction even if he he
lieved it to be unjust and oppressive
was doubtless novel proposition to
them as it is of course to all lawless
and illiterate people. The language
of the decision was remarkable and
its great length, covering over sew
enty pages of typewriter paper ard
requiring over two hours in its deliv-
cry, will doubtless make il an epoehal
judgment. An appeal has been taken
and the condemned men are temper
arily free on bail. There is little
doubt, however, that the sentence of
Judge Wright will be affirmed, for
the Supreme Court of the United
States, whatever it may think of the
grounds on which the injunction was
granted, will not condone contempt. |
The only way, of course, in which
the President can interfere viii be to
grant a pardon, but this he cannot do
until after the enforcement of the jail
sentence, and since the case if taken
to the Supreme Court cannot be
finally decided before the October
term, President-elect Taft is the one
to whom an appeal in such case must
be made.

RETROSPECT AND THE NEW YEAR

Today marks the beginning OF q
new year. The year 1908 has passed
into oblivion and the events Of that
wear have become matters OF history
All deeds done. good and bad, have
been recorded upon the annals ofthe
past; they are laid away to be
brought out again only to serve a
good purpose in the future.
Passed are the days which seemed
to us so commonplace and unimpOrt-
ant at the time, bat which will have
a serious and important bearing upon
the course Of man during the present
and future years. What does the
history Of 1908 contain? Records
Of many h-urs, some well spent, 9th
ers wasted. Let it contain what 1t
may, not a moment Of that time can
be brought back. None of the deeds
Of man during that period can b.
changed. The actions of every man
during the year passed furnishes food
for serious thought. Many are the
lessons that we may learn from the
actions of others. Many are our
own acts from which we can profit.
The hours well spent and wasted are
gone from us now, but the record
will stand and we must render an
account one of these days. Then
every item and letter must be brought
ap and passed upon when the Al
mighty High will come forth in all
Of His glory to jndge-aii men. We,
however, fan peacefully entertain
thoughts of consolation in the omnis-
cience and mercifulness of the great
and good Maker. He secs and knows
all Of Our motives and actions, our
strength and weakness, our victories
and defeats, our adversities and sue
cesses. In Ills mercy there is hope.
We are taught and believe that He
will on that final day of account tenn
per Justice with mercy.
With this retrospect of the past
, aud Of our belief in the future, we
Ashould one and all lay Eell and ex-
leaute plans for the future that ere
another year has dawned upon us we
shall be better prepared to face the
Judge at that final hour, and that we
can hear with the purest heart the
voice of God saying swell done,
faithful servant"
TIE Christmas chimes have passed
away and all the significant remind
ers Of the birth, suffering and death
Of Christ f0r the salvation of man
have disappeared. Let us enter
another year with a prayer for
strength to make its record better
Than the last, and its work more har-
monious with noble hopes and destiny
that we pray may stretch out before
us and form part of our existence in
the great hereafter. With these
thoughts, we wish our readers
Happy New Year.
