Cheer up and don't look so much

farmers every day with new and

Doubtless these students will know
how to kill two blades of grass
where we only know how to kill
one, and can hoe two rows of cotton
while we hoe one. We must learn
how to save labor.

SCHOOLMASTER IN POLITICS.

Back in that reverberent era when
William Jennings Bryan left streak of
free silver speeches trailing all over the
West that is to say in the presidential
campaign of 1896-there was a time
preceding election day when even the
judicious. and discriminating began to
believe that pretty much any sort of
wild theory, vociferously asserted, was
as good as a demonstrated fact for
electioneering purposes. But when the
election returns were cast up it was
found that Bryan was showed under;
the majority against him in the elector-
al college being s.. The failure Of the
free silver preachment should have
taught even the Democrats that it IS
difficult to mislead the people-even
enough of them to win national cleo
oion-by a theory contrary to the facts
of experience. But here is another
campaign when we find the Democratic
spellbinders industriously proclaiming
the discredited theory of free trade and
using glittering generalities of speech
for argument.
In New York state, Democratic can
didate for governor, Dix, has suffered
the humiliation of having to pose as a
tariff reformer, that is to say as the
sort of reformer who would cut and
slash the rates of the Payne bill, if he
had chance, made ridiculous. Some
body out of the files letter from Mr.
DiX's wall paper firm sent to the con-
gressional committee that was revising
the tariff schedules, which communica-
ton demanded raise of the old duty
on wall paper from % to 30 per cent
So Candidate Dix is shown up as high
protectionist in his own business and a
low tariff man when he talks to the
people. Even in New JERSEY, DR.. Will
sOn-the so-called scholar in politics
has been called down for vagaries and
unsubstantial statements by the clearly
demonstrative arguments Of his oppon-
ent. The schooImaster in politics is
always interesting, but he is apt to
prove a shining failure if he attempts
to play tricks of educational jugglery
This is d campaign Of education, all
right, but the classes who are occnpy-
ing the benches and listening to the
gentlemen who is delivering the educa-
tional lecture, are demanding that the
propositions be demonstrated. The
man who uses the Republican protec-
zionist principle as the subject of his
discourse, can point to ample practical
demonstration of its benefcence and
efficiency; but what sort of dem2nstra-
tion.can the free trade propaganda point
out?

a STRANGE LINE OF ATTACK.

The tactics OF the Cumberland Even
ing Times, the Democratic organ, in be-
half of the Democratic Congressional
nominee, Mr.. Lewis, in continually urg-
ing the election of that gentleman be-
cause he is a resident of Allegany coun-
ty, whereas his Republican opponent,
Mr.. Warner, comes from another coun-
ty, are at once devoid of justice, wisdom
and even common sense. The argu-
ment is devoid of justice because, car
ried to its logical extent, it amounts to
a contention that the Sixth Districts
representative in Congress ought to
come from AlleganY county all the
time. This assumption is unreasonable
to the point of absurdity and so mani
testify incapable of realization as not to
require extended comment Another
phase of the argument advanced by the
Democratic organ in behalf of Mr..
Lewis amounts to a proposition that
where one of the candidates resides in
Allegany county, and the other candi-
date does not, the people of Allegany
county should display undivided hostility
to the latter candidate, whether he be
a Republican or Democratic nominee,
and should sacrifice him in favor of

SYSTEM NOT TO BE COUNTENANCED

A BertilliOn enthusiast in attendance

measured, numbered and tagged. Full
geographic and civic data of each of its
component units" is the way Albert
Hall of Minneapolis, member of the
committee on criminal law reform, puts
the case. We have developed the regis
tration of domestic animals, says Mr..
Hall; why omit the record of human
life?
One very ready answer to the animal
proposition would be that we have done
no such thing. A few animals which
stands out from the razorbacks, the
lowly mule and the cur of low degree
have been registered, but the animal
proletariat has not been registered, and
never will be. By the same token the
Boston bulls, the Percherons and Berk-
shires of the human race have a way of
registering themselves without any aid
from the Bertillion system. Whether
they tunnel the Hudson or fly over the
Alps or lead the Four Hundred. they
secure their registration by their own
efforts.
And so far as any compulsory process
is concerned-Well, Mr.. Hall had better
study the genius of American institu-
tons for a while. We are not quite
ready for an organized system of domi-
ciliary espionage, even though conduct
ed by card index bureau. Such a
system might give the sleuths more
time to play penuchle, but this conven-
fence will hardly outweigh the odium of
placing the American people in an omni-
bus class of prospective criminals

citation the loyal support accorded in the

but merely because he is a resident of
Allegany county, cannot be otherwise
than offensive, is composed not only of
the Republican but the Democratic
voters as well of Garrett, Washington,
Frederick and Montgomery counties.
Comment on this seems hardly neceS-
sary. The attitude which the local
Democratic organ has assumed in behalf
of Mr.. Lewis amounts in substance to a
contention that our own good county of
AlleganY is the entire Sixth Congress
sional District of Maryland, and that,
for the present campaign, at least, any
candidate who does not live in the Sixth
Congressional District. We do not adj
init the contention nor we believe, will
it be admitted by the voters in the other
counties. Fortunate it Is for its candi-
date that the limited sphere of influ-
ence of the Democratic organ will pre-
vent its appeal to local prejudice in be-
half of Mr.. Lewis from becoming gen.
orally known beyond the confines of
our own county. For. in the possession
OF such knowledge, the good people of
Garrett, Washington, Frederick and

COLONIAL THEATRE.

The steady, wholesome taste for
plays of the American soil has shown
itself in the approval of His Last
Dollar" the great racing story written
by David Higgins, and in which he Will
appear in the leading role at the Co
lOnial for one week, starting tonight,
with matinees Wednesday and Satur-
day. Mr.. Higgins has a role that fits
him like the proverbial glove in Joe
Braxton," has plenty of comedy of the
characteristic Higgins brand, while
the dramatic situations give him bet
ter opportunities than has been at
fOrded him in any of his previous eff
forts. His Last Dollar" is a pretty
playa story of the race track and
plunger, appealing to ones romantic
sentiments and wildly cOlored. Old
Kentucky, a state which has furnished
some of the most beautiful themes that
ever graced the stage, is woven. into
the play by the presence of Ken
lucky millionaire who goes broke, q
Kentucky thoroughbred that wins a
momentous race, on which the hero has
staked s-sS last dollar, and Kentucky
girl, who is also q thoroughbred.
Comedy and sentiment are happily
mingled in the play, and there is the
desired element of excitement to stir
ones pulses Joe Braxton is a former
jockey who has had an adventurous
life and has amassed wealth. The play
opens in the sun parlor of BraxtOn
villa on Long Island. Here he is Wis
tied by Eleanor Downs, Kentucky
girl, and the daughter of the man for
whom Braxton formerly rode as
jockey. The girl is in trouble as the
old home is about to be sold for debt,
and she offers to sell her horse, Mon
grel," for 50 900. Braxton gives her
$4,000, but refuses to take the horse,
and the animal is entered for the fu-
turity at Sheepshead Bay. It is on
the eve of the great futurity race that
Eleanor tells Joe of the work done by
her colt in secret, his ability being
known only to her and her jockey.
Joe still has $4,000 left, which he de-
teru1fnes to risk on Eleanor's horse at
SO to 1. Linson has a horse in the same
race He also las a professed love for
Eleanor She scorns him, and he de-
ternines to ruin her chances Of win
ming the race. The excitement Is in
tense. and the race scene is one OF the
most stirring stage specialties ever wit
messed. The plot, of course, has
a happy ending, but not until the audi
ence has witnessed the presentation
of a stirring and romantic story.

A New "Motor Girl"
Not only the starred Emma Carus,
but the entire cast is new. The prin-
cipals made their regulations in vaude-
vile and bring their own songs into
extravaganza. In the first act Miss
Carus leaves the leading role much as
it was written for Georgia Caine; and
while she isn't so pretty she sings much
better. Hearing her deep tones lifted
musically up to the alluring waltz song,
the most attractive of the Julian Ed
wards score, one is reminded that Jen
de Reckless is a barytone trained up to
tenor. Later Carus has her ups and
downs following in Gaines footsteps,
but things go all her own way when
she introduces new matter made to suit
her.
1 might say that the buxom Emma
might have less trouble if she followed
in only the footsteps Of the svelte
Georgia. But she follows her into
trousers. And a more unpleasing boy
than this short, pudgy, -too-youth-
full actress makes it would be difficult
to fancy. 1t is more agreeable to recall
how much more humor she gets out of
THE Queen Of the Dairy Lunch" than
did her predecessor. True, the song is
none too delicately or neatly phrased

broke in by the brokers'" But the
shrinking violet is not Emma Carus'
forte. She is at her jovial best in a
brand, span new Irish song, with q
tune that easily set the gallery whist

comicality from her fashionable attire.
But when. she screws her face into a
Hibernia smirk she bangs her hat down
on her head into a semblance of a bat
tered st. Patrick's day stove-pipe, and
swishes her lace coat out in back Of
her like the Tapping tails OF a rusty
claw-hammer.
AS extreme in daintiness as Emma
Carus is in roughness is Ethel Green,
who plucks the plums from both THE
King of CadOnia" and the original
Motor Girl'-that is, the sweet ones
rather than those that are sharp and
indigestible. And she sings Come

as Marguerite Clark did, which is say

GRAND THEATRE

Lost Paradise" play dealing with cap
ltal and labor. The scenes are laid
around the great iron works OF Pennsyl-
Vanla, and the iron mills in full operation

play. The story deals with an invention
OF dynamOs, the invention having been
worked upon for years by an inventor as
sisted by the superintendent OF the iron
works. The owner Of the works, through
the confidence Of the inventor, gets into
the secret. The inventor dies, and the
superintendent Of the mills steadily works
on the invention and perfects it unknown
to anyone. After the death OF the prin-
cipal inventor, the drawings, blue prints,
etc, are stolen by the mill owner and the
man whom he uses as his accomplice The
dynamOs are manufactured and used and
millions are realized from that which
rightfuIiy belonged to another. The mill
superintendent is in love with the mill
owners daughter, but she treats his at
tentiOns with Indifference, and tells him
that he is only q salari7d man in the en-
ploy OF her father. and that he could not
expect to win the daughter Of a man of
so high a standing. AS time rolls on con-
ditions change. A delegation calls upon
the owner Of the works, but Their demands
are met with rebuff. The strike is de-
clared. and the men parade the streets
firm in their d. mands- The superintend-
emit of the works finally awakens TO the
fact that the dynamOs used ara the stolen
invention belonging 70 himself and dead
