BE HOME IN FEW DAYS

Wallace Benson, the youngest son
of Governor and Secretary of State
F. w. Benson arrived from San
Francisco this morning and will en-
ter college course at the Univer-
sity of Oregon next week. Wallace
said that he left his father, the gov
ernor, night before last in San Fran
cisco, where he had accompanied
him to the wharf, and that his
father was improving rapidly and
expected to be home in the course of
a few days. The rumors that his
father was dangerously ill., he said.
were without foundation and that
his father could come at any time
but. he did not feel that it was nee
essary so long as his personal atten-'
tion to the business affairs were not
needed and he desired to complete
the course of treatment which he Is
taking in order that he will regain
perfect health once more. He will
return to Salem either the last Of
this week or the first of next.

Captain Klaus Larsen, who has an
nounced that he will attempt Sun
day to navigate the whirlpool rapids
in an open boat, will have to start
from the American side if he makes
the attempt. The Canadian police
have been ordered to prevent the at

that it would be suicidal. Two po-
icemen are guarding the point from

League Superintendent continues
his attack on our local ant-license
Compaign Committee in general and
on the editor OF the WING in parti
cular. In the latter case, this gentle
man from Illinois gives circulation to
the following lbelous statement -
have been told that they believed Mr.
Williams had made some deal TO let
the liquor interests carry the county
wet" Anderson makes pit;ful at
tempt to escape responsibility for this
scandalous accusation by saying that
he does not believe it, while at the
same time giving the poisoned phrase
the widest possible publicity We
know. OF course, the political shop
which is furnishing Anderson with his
ammunition. We know how cordially

how glad these fellows are to 5ot any
chance to knock" us-with or with
out warrant. But think OF anybody
but knave or fool. making such a
charge against the editor OF the
WING, in this State or county, For
quarter OF century we have been
doing our little best in the cause of
righteousness and temperance in this
State. Since coming to edit the
WING we have steadfastly declined
every advertising proposition that
emanated from the liquor interests,
holding our space for sale, but not our
principles. We have tried to be true
to our colors in days when the fellows,
who are now coaching Anderson and
(by the way) taking him into camp,
were playing for both the liquor vote
and the temperance vote, trimming
their sails, as usual, to every breeze
that could wait them to political vic
tory. And now to have such fellows.

mouthp;ece to publish throughout the
State the slanderous accusation that
Mr., Williams has made deal with

had more sense, even if his fool coun-
sellers in certain quarters of this
county didn't. Does the fellow sup
pose his blatant charges can besmirch
our life record in this State, except
in the minds of the most ignorant and
pur blind? Standing on that record

!" II + editor OF the Cecil Demo-
crat seems to think that our
criticisms of GovernorCroth-
ers and of the County Commissioners
have been due to mere disagree cable
ness" That editor has lived so many
years in the atmosphere of political
Jobbery that it doubtless never occur
red to him that our criticisms might
be due to the truth Certainly they
are not born OF any personal resent
ment. We have simply insisted on
publishing the facts as to these gen
tlemen's political and public doings.
And it is because Of the certainty and
weight OF the FACTS that we are
honored by so much show of personal
venom on their part and on the part of
their retainers. TO charge that our
criticisms nj the Commissioners were
lue to their refusal to use our col
umnS for county printing is putting the
cart before the horse. The WING
was boycotted BECAUSE of its criti
cism. The new Cruthers legislation
and the action thereon by the Crothers
Commissioners is all intended to pun
1sh us Tor presum:ng to make such

that attempt at punishment coming,
and we counted the cost OF our
course-that is, we knew perfectly well
that the gang would do us all the
hurt they could, if we dared talk out
in meetin''' We said we expected
that, and SHOULD NOT BE IN
FLUENCED BY IT. That is just
where we have stood and shall con-
tinue to stand. WE SIMPLY CAN
NOT AND WILL NOT play the little
back door game OF politics for official
favor. We will run this paper on that
line ii we go broke on the job.
We do not expect the editor OF the
Democrat or any OF his type to under
stand any such position, and we there
fore expect to be charged with all
sorts OF sinister motives, just as we
have been. But if we can give the
people a county paper which fur
nishes them the FACTS and ALL the
facts. we shall be accomplishing what
we set out to do. and will be content
ed. 50 far as the gang and its re-
tanners go, we are not expecting any
kindly feeling from that quarter, and
can live very contentedly without
them. Meanwhile the people OF the
county are getting entirely '..:," to the
idea that whentver the WING pub
fishes any FACTS about the gang,
its retailers at once forget to discuss
the facts or answer the statements,
but fall to abusing the editor. We
challenge them to find in the WING.

where we rest our right to keep

Crothers all the way down to his re-

crat. Under such circumstances these
gentlemen naturally find us disagree

didn't. But by the way. is the editor

WE are being asked from various
quarters of the county how the money
contributed to the Anti-Saloon League
for Statewide work can be made SER
viceable for our county campaign. That
very question was put to Rev. J. M.
Arters, the Leagues representative,
by Treasurer Carhart, at the meeting
of the local Anti-License Campaign
Committee. Mr.. Arters answered that
money contributed from Cecil county
could be obtained for the campaign in
this county upon the call of the local
committee. Mr.. Arters has queer
ed'' things so since that meeting that
we do not know whether that state
ment can now be relied upon or not.
But such was his statement at that
time.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1910-08-06

THE editor of the Cecil Democrat
must certainly write his peculiar edi-
torials with an eye to their being read
by only those who are bereft of the
power OF reason. He can expect no
one else to take his statements seri-
ously. We can only wonder if he takes
them seriously himself. If so, he must
be exceptionally wanting in mental
acumen and the saving grace of his
mour". Laugh, neighbor, for good
ness sake, laugh, at your own antics

tiers did not like it, because they had
been skilfully steering things for a
different result Their game was
blocked We are glad Of it. They are
not going to come into this county
with their political clap-trap, if we
can help it. When we want to play
politics, we will play them somewhere
else than in the temperance camp.
We have only contempt for the man

a cause as the temperance cause or
such an influence as the church for
the furtherance Of partisan ends.
