SNOW HILL WANTS YOU.

We have not yet given up
hope that Messrs. Smith, Moore
q Co. will rebuild their mill
here. The fire which destroyed
it did Snow Hill a greater in
jury than many persons were at
first willing to admit. The loss
of the hundreds of dollars paid
out every week when the "big
MILL was running is sadly felt
in Snow Hill now. We now re-
alize the great benefit this fac
tory was to Snow Hill. That
it was not properly appreciated
goes without saying; this is the
case with every enterprise in
the town-not only this town,
but every town that we know
of. The men who put their
money, brains and energy into
enterprises that help to support
the people are more often than
otherwise given faint praise,
while the man whose only en-
terprise is the use of a fault
finding, malicious tongue is
looked nnon as u great and use
full ms.--,,. ..., have them in
Snow Hill and we can pick them
out in every other town. They
are the men who can always
tell what other men ought to do
but never amount to anything
themselves. But we are digress-
ing. The idea of this article
was to ask Messrs. Smith, Moore
& Co. to come to the aid of the
town and once more restore the
great industry that is so neces-
sary to our prosperity. We
know that you can manufacture
lumber cheaper in the South
than you can here. We know
that you have arrived at an
age when you prefer to lay
aside cares rather than assume
new ones, but Snow Hill needs
the "big mill" badly and we
hope that you can see your way
clear to once more erect upon
the site a humming industry.

DON'T PROCRASTINATE.

Last week we had something
to say about a trolly line COM
ing to Snow Hill. We hope our
town fathers will look into the
matter and not allow this good
thing to give us the go-by. AS
an evidence of the earnestness
of this trolly line project for the
Eastern Shore, the Baltimore
merchants 'andManufacturers
Association" has given it cred
ence in a bulletin issued by that
body this week. 1t is spoken
of as something definite-set-
tled-going to be built. But
Snow Hill is not on the trolly
map that has been published.
We are sure the omission is be-
cause the projectors do not prop
perly understand the benefits
to be gained by continuing a line
from Salisbury to Snow Hill and
on down to Virginia, skirting
along Chincoteague Bay, and
reaping great reward in the way
of freight and passenger traffic
t0-be obtained both from that
and this section.
No money could be better
spent than the funds used to
defray the expenses of COM
mittee to go to Baltimore in or
der to lay before the projectors
of this proposed electric rail-
way system the advantages of
this section of WorcesterlC oun-
ty. In addition to our great
wheat, potato and oyster crops,
there is a stretch of land be-
tween Snow Hill and Salisbury
which could be turned into one
of the greatest small fruit pro-
ducing sections Of the East.
The land is specially adapted
to the growing of strawberries
and cantaloupes and the only
reason it is not now utilized for
such purpose is its remoteness
from a railroad.
Don't let us procrastinate in
doing the things that should

The SLEEPING SICKNESS
WHICH MEANS DEATH

How many readers have heard OF this
terrible disease? 1t prevails in that
far-away country-Africa-especially =
the Congo district. 1t is caused by
the bite Of the tsetse fly. When it
bites a person, the sleeping symptoms
begin and finally the sufferer sleeps
until death occurs.
Contrast this with the peaceful,
balmy sleep Of health. Is there any
thing more wearing than to lie awake
at night, tossing about, nervous, with
cold feet, hot head and mercy knows
what else? Short Of letting the tsetse
fly bite us we would do almost any
thing for relief. How can we pre-
vent It? Mr.. George Hayes, Of
Union City, Pa, writes: 81 had lost
my appetite, was all rundown, could
not sleep nights. l had tried every
thing without relief. Vinol was rec
commended, and to my surprise, It
helped me at once; gave me a splendid
appetite, and now l sleep soundly."
What Vinol did for Mr.. Hayes, 1t will
do for every rundown, nervous and
overworked person who cannot sleep.

CHAMBERLAIN PRESIDES AT
CIVIC FORUM TONIGHT

New York, March 12.-Carnegle
Hall will be filled tonight at the meet
ing of the Cicic Forum, the session
being devoted to the subject of pri-
mary reform and direct primaries.
Senator-eect and former Governor
George E. Chamberlain of Oregon,
will preside. Senator La Toilette will
be the principal speaker.
Senator La Follette's address on a
subject which is monopol!zing so
much of the public's attention, and
which is soon to be considered in the
state legislature, would be a matter
Of considerable Importance in any
event. But in view Of the late devel-
opments, and the real efficacy Of
the latest plan the uncertainty in many
minds as to which Governor Hughes
approves, it is causing a good deal of
talk. There can be no question where
Senator La Toilette stands in regard
to direct primaries. He is not in ia
vor of any sort of legislation smack
ing of compromise, or which only
goes part way in the accomplishment
of a reform sought.

FULTON WORKING AMONG
STATE OFFICIALS AT SALEM

Salem, Ore, March 11~Pullinl
every possible wire in order to get the
appointment to the newly created fed.
eral judgeship in oregon, ex-senator
Fulton is wiring for the endorsement
of the state officials at Salem. Fur
thermore, he has resorted to the pc
tition method.
George G.. Bingham, the newly cre-
ated insurance commissioner, has Sc
cured for Fulton the Endorsement or
the promise of Endorsement, from
Governor Frank W. Benson, Superin-
tendent of Public Instruction J. H.
Ackerman, Attorney General A. NJ,
Crawford and Chief Justice Moore of
the Oregon supreme bench.
Others were asked to send a similar
Endorsement of Fulton direct to the
president but refused most of them
because they believed the new Judge
should come from the eastern part of
the state. Some favored Judge Ste
phen A. Lowell and some Judge James
A. Fee, both of Pendleton, Still 9TH
ers refused because they did not care
to mix up in any way in the fight.
Following is the exact wording Of
the Endorsement of ex-senator Full
ton sent to President Taft by the at
torney general. It covers the points
required by Fulton's friends and is
typical of others sent:
"As far as 1 know, Mr.. Fulton is a
lawyer of exceptional ability and Of
impeachable integrity"
