SCORE ROOSEVELT
English ditors Bitterly Resent His
GuiIdhaIl Speech.

London. June 4.-The Liberal Ma
ton and the Tory Saturday Review
are equally severe in their comments
on Roosevelt's Guildhall speech. The
Nation says: at seems to make little
difference whether one receives Roose
welt politely or not The pope refused
to receive him and came of on the
whole rather lightly. Sir Eldon GorsI
feted him and his reward was an
amazingly crude and gratuitous attack
upon our whole policy in Egypt Nc
summary can do justice to the vulgar
fly and ignorance of the Grafton Mr.
Roosevelt delivered at the Guildhall
In return for the freedom OF the city
1t adds: THE World. indeed. unkindly
suggests that II we want Roosevelt we
better keep him. However. as we can
manage without him. we do not see
even international amity."
The Saturday Review says: Per
haps a man should mind his own bust
ness, even though he may know some
thing OF the business OF another. but
maybe Roosevelt all the time was
minding his own business and none
other. We can quite believe 1t would
be not a bad thing for popular hero
about to re-enter American politics to
be able to tell them how he taught
the Britishers in their own house how
to run their empire"

Unprecedented retrenchment includ'

1.-TWO years age the railroads had

that men would have to be laid on

What doth it profit man il he gain
the whole world and suffer the loss Of his

lie said: ITO see men so Industrious. so
occupied. so active. so vgiIant in their
worldly pursuits one might say that they
seem to labor for an endless series of
years for treasures that could insure them
a true and permanent felicity. For can
il be supposed that so much care, so much
agitation, so much anxiety are for trea-
sure whose duration is only equal to the
duration OF the pains which are taken to
acquire IL. and lifetime should be passed
away I'm seeking with so much fatigue
those perishable goods which must be
abandoned az the hour Of death? Yet this
mistake which appears so palpable is the
error which the greater part of mankind
makes I'm allowing temporal views and
considerations to influence their every
act.
Religion, however, furnishes us with
sentiments more noble and sublime. II Of
fers TO us an eternity of bliss as an OBJ
iect worthy OF our care and attention. II
unmasks the imposture Of all transitory
allurements and lays open the vanity Of
all earthly objects II tells us that when
we have arrived at the highest degree OF
happiness here ON earth We are at the
eve Of our death and at the very gates of

greater part OF mankind passes away

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL
GEORGETOWN, Del, March S.-One
OF the most profitable and interesting
meetings OF Midland Grange. held for
months, took place on Tuesday, In
Grange Hail, when the subject of Ear
ly Potatoes was thoroughly discussed
by Charles Gum, OF showels. Md. who
is STYLED King Of Potato Growers" Of
this Peninsula
Last year Mr.. Gum, from 300 acres Of
Hand radsed 1900 bushels of potatoes
which Is the largest amount grown by
any man on the Peninsula. The yield
was from 1900 bushei planting.
Mr.. Gum said his soil was red clay,
and when ne was preparing the land for
potatoes he generally plowed six to eight
inches deep and thoroughly pulverized
the broken sod. His potatoes are planted
/ from two to three inches from the level
OF the soil and the rows are about twen-
tv-hve inches apart. lie stated that hs
continued 10 tin his patches until the
vines turned yellow. while most OF the
farmers cease after the potato begins
TO blossom.
A good preventative from seat Of
''brght." he stated. was to sprinkle

sulphur on the potatoes before planting.
He advised the use OF Armour ferti-
lizer, and a compound consisting Of 8
per cent .amonia. s per cent. phosphor-
ic acid and per cent. potash in order
to get good results.
His method IN cutting the seed pota-
toes. before planting. is to have two
eyes TO each piece so that II one should
become damaged there viii still he one
left.
He considers the Irish Cobbler" one
Of the best potatoes on the market, and
is highly pleased with the yield he gets.
Last year he raised 5000 bushels. lie
advised the farmers to plant e Green
