Garden for public uses will not be inclined to give the subject serious
consideration.
This belief is doubtless we'll founded. Public officials are never
inclined to give serious consideration to projects involving the ex-
psnditure of money when presented to them for the first time. 1t
behooves those that are interested and concerned in the proposd en-
terprise to press it upon the attention Of the proper officials with
such force and with such suficing reasons as will compel them to
give it serious consideration.
A committee was organized some time ago to undertake just this
campaign OF education. 1t has had ample support from the press
and from public opinion. Now let it get to work and make the move

For reasons inherent in the nature Of the trade there Is hardly
any other kind Of industry carried on in American cities under worse
conditions than that of bread baking. No matter in what city the
investigation is made, the disclosures are always about the same. Tho
truth Is that in the process Of baking all bad odors and other out
ward evidences Of decay or filth are destroyed by the heat, and as q
consequence the baker, unless carefully supervised by public inspeo-
ton, can with impunity put almost anything into his bread and pastry,
and work it up without regard to cleanliness.

Not since Uncle Toms Cabin
was first produced has there been
such heart-stirring Melodrama as
The Night Rider" to be presented
by the Rex Amusement Company at
Hollands Opera House on Monday
Night, September IS.
AS indicated by the title, the play
deals with the outrages committed
by that lswless band of men whose
operations in the tobacco district are
too well known to be commented on
here.
The author. who is thoroughly
familiar with the outrages commit
ed, has hit upon the idea of present
ing not only the picture of the forms
of violence as perpetrated by this
gang, but he also shows the means
to which they resort in order to gain
political power and safety for their
members at the hands Of the law.

j. FL. Kimble spoke in favor of
the King road drag for our dirt
roads and hoped for law similar
to that in Illinois, which he read,
as follows:
THE ROAD DRAG LAW OF ILLINOIS.
Section l. Be it enacted by the People of the
State of Illinois, represented in the General
Assembly: That the commissioners of high
ways in any township In counties under town.
ship organization, or the commissioners of
highways or boards of county commissioners
in counties not under township organization,
are hereby authorized to have earth roads
dragged at all seasons of the year whenever
they may deem it benificial to have the work
done; and they may contract, preference to
be given adjoining land owners or tenants, to
have given piece of road dragged at a rate
not to exceed one dollar (sl.00) per mile for
each time dragged, If such work is done during
the months of December, January, February
or March, and not to exceed a rate of seventy
five cents (75) per mile for each time dragged,
If such work is done during other months of
the year than aforesaid: Provided, that the
width required by the highway commissioners
to be dragged shall not be less than twenty (2O)
feet, if the width of the roadway will permit:
Provided. also, that dragging is done as
nearly as practicable in accordance with the
instructions of the highway commissioners of
the township.
Sec 2. 1t shall be unlawful for any person
or persons to place loose earth, weeds, sods or
other vegetable matter on the portion of a
road which has been dragged and 90 maintain

in such manner as to interfere with the free
flow of water from the dragged portion of the
road to the side cutters or bitches: Provided,
that this restriction shall not apply to deposits
of earth or other material that may be made
by the authority of the proper road officials, if
necessary, for filing or raising the elevation
of given section of road or other necessary
construction work.
Sec. 8 1t shall also be unlawful for any
person or persons to drive or cause to be driven

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER s, 1911.

The three proposed amendments to be
voted on at the election on Tuesday
next have played no part in the
campaign, scarcely receiving mention
from the stump speakers and other cam
paigners. Those amendments looking to
the increase of representation of Balti-
more city in. the legislature should be
voted down. With the city in the hands
of the crooked gang that is controlling
politics there at the present time, it is
deserving of smaller representation,
rather than an increase, and voting
against the amendments will at least
prevent the corrupt Baltimore gang from
getting a larger number of representa-
tives in the General Assembly to
further some of their nefarious political
schemes.

The Wing says the County Road Engi-
neer has not made the annual written re-
port Of all work done on the county roads
and bridges for the. year, as required BY
law to be made on the 18th day OF July.
ThisNisn't all the County Road Engineer
has not done, as residents of this section
can testify. There seems to be little evi
.dence of much done to the roads in this
Sixth district by the County Road Engi-
neer, notwithstanding his promises. A
plan was laid before him more than year
ago, looking to the dragging of section
of road in this district with the split.log
drag. but to the best of our knowledge
even the drag hasn't been made, let alone
any other steps having been taken for the
fulillment of The promised repair of the
Woodlawn-Ca Calvert stretch of road, upon
which the implement was to be used.
But this isn't the only neglect of the
County Road Engineer in this section.
and of just what practical use be has
been, except to draw nice salary, we
are not aware.

land is one of the Eve. Congressional
elections will be held in several OF the
States for the filling of vacancies caused
by death.
In New Mexico the first state election
for Congressman, Governor and other
State officers will be held. and by reason
of the fact that the result will be to in
crease the numerical strength Of one OF
the other parties in Congress the election
there will be watched with interest
throughout the country.
To the country as whole the elections

drift of public opinion, in that if one

what may happen next year, when the

After one of the most listless cam
paigus the State has ever known, but a
few days intervene before the election.
The candidates and workers of both
parties have been hustling ceaselessly and
putting forth their best efforts to infuse
life into the contest and rouse the voters,
but with indifferent success. The refusal
of the bosses of the republican party to
permit the selection of candidates by
popular vote at the primary. and the
fraud practiced by the Baltimore city
democratic gang, cast wet blanket over
the whole campaign, and old General
Apathy has been conspicuous 10 the ranks
of both parties. To such an extent does
this feeling prevail that the prediction is

Tuesday next is election day, and eve,

Tuesday next is election day, and every
voter should make it his duty to go to the
polls and cast his ballot. With the secret
form of voting now in vogue the voter
has the opportunity to mark his ballot
for those candidates whom he feels are
best qualified for the Offices to be filled.
The mere voting for a candidate who has
no other or better qualification than that
he is member of this or that party, is a
poor form of political procedure, and
one that makes 1t easy for the party
''boss' to acquire his selfish ends, which
are generally those of spoils. Don't
allow the cheap clap trap and tommy rot
of the biased party" worker to influence
you in the marking of your ballot, but
vote for the candidates on their merits,
selecting those with tie best qualifca-
tions. as you would in any other practical
business transaction called upon to de-

W. r. Cameron was asked what
his Harvest Pride bearded wheat
yielded and said 80 bushels per
acre, which was better than his
other wheat had done.
