ORIGINAL POETRY
"A Man Isn't Down Till He's
Willing to Stay"


You may take a mans money, his home
and all that
You may make his life hard and his chances
seem flat;
You may kick him and cuff him and cast
him away,
But "a man isn't down till he's willing to
stay
When he's on the down-grade with the
wheels running fast,
You shout ont warning as he rushes on
past
And he seems to be needless of all that you
Still, "a man isn't down till he's willing to
stay"
If he's got the true metal he II make a hard
fight,
And try to climb up again and set himself
right;
He will wriggle and twist and pull every
which way,
For "a man isn't down till he's willing to
stay
Some men get discouraged and complain of
hard luck,
But the thing they need most is the stuff we
call pluck,
For where there is IA will there is always a
way"
And "a man isn't down till he's willing to
stay"

which has the enforcement OF the law
for the control and eradication of such
pests.
These gentlemen report an improve
ment over the conditions encountered
asst year, especially as regards peach
yellows.
However, some orchards have num-
Der of trees affected with the yellows,
and for the protection of those desiring
to raise peaches every tree the inspector
marks as affected with yellows should
be grubbed up by the owners az once, or
it will be incumbent upon the officers OF
the depar- ment to perform their duty tC
the growers, and have these diseased
trees removed al the owners expense.
The yrllows spreads very rapidly
Hence the necessity for haste in remOv.
ing affected trees.
Allegany county is becoming a great
fruit section. and all parties should work
together for the removal of all obstacles
to successful orchard development.

Down With the Boss.

City government in the United States
is IA travesty and failure. 1t is thrown
into politics, and with as good reason a
board of directors of a bank or the YES
try of church might be selected at a
political election. When some State
with number of cities and towns shall
discover the courage and sagacity to cur
tail the suffrage i'll city election, and
give the vote to those only who pay
taxes, great step on the road to reform
will be taken.
The city should be run as the bank is
by the men who own it. There should
be a property qualification for every
voter, and it should he understood that
the administration of city government
is as much of business proposition as
the operation of railroad or a manu-.
featuring plant. Washington Post.
