Cardinal Gibbons Draws Com
PARSONS

Il have ten times.more respect for the
woman who goes out and earns her own
living, tolls for herself and her family
and becomes a good housekeeper than
for the idle and gossping society woman,
who passes away her precious moments
in doing nothing

sermon at the confirmation exercises at
Saint Joseph's Catholic Church, Balti-
more. on Sunday, May 1st.

1T is an honorable thing to work, and
honest and industrious work is what
has made this great nation Never be

Frederick County Neglected by
the Road Commission.

Members of the Board of County
Commissioners of Frederick County and
others who went to Baltimore a few
days ago to confer with the State Roads
Commission in regard TO the building OF
the proposed State road from Jefferson
to We've. ton returned in disguised frame
of mind. They had been led to believe
that the Roads Commission, which has
SO long neglected Frederick county, was
at last ready to talk business" in
regard to beginning work IN this county;
instead, they found that the members of
the Roads Commission merely wanted to
know whether the County Commits
soners had any proposition to make.
AS for the actual negotiations in regard
to the building of the Jefferson Weverton
road, it appeared that they were out Of
the question at present, as plans for the
road had not been completed by the
Roads Commission engineers.
Nothing definite could be learned,
either when the toll gates on the Balt-
more pike would be removed or when
the commission was likely to take over
the Jefferson and Emmitsburg pixies
Frederick county has not been fairly
dealt with, and much indignation has
been manifested among the people.l
The Business Mems Association has
been appealed TO to take up the matter
with the Roads Commission, and to urge
that something be done for Frederick
county.

That the friar lands of the Philippines
are being seized by the sugar trust, with
the acquiescence OF Attorney General
Wickersham and the war department, is
the serious charge of John A. Martin, a
Democratic representative in Congress
from Colorado. Congressman Martin has
given out a statement assailng the Gov
eminent officials alleged to be involved
and declaring that information that would
prove the case against Mr. Wickersham
is being withheld by the war department
He demands full congressional investi-
CATION of the entire subject. 81 have
charged the administration, he says,
with having begun policy of unlawful
exploitation in the Philippines and every
development goes TO establish the truth
of the charge. If the administration has
been falsely accused, let it take off the
lid" 1t is difficult to see how the adj
ministration is going to ignore this chal-
lengc. If the facts are as Mr. Martin
alleges, startling scandal must be re-
vealed. If the charges are false, the adj
ministration should lose no time in dem
onstrating their falsity, They cannot be
brushed aside
