Have You Heard Them =?

There has not been an election
since the war when the Repub.
lican party has not claimed il
was going to win, and the num-
ber of contests in this State won
by them in all that time can be
counted on one finger..That time
was when Lowndes slipped in
on account of dissatisfaction in
the Democratic party. 1t was
not many weeks after he got in
and his party began to show
how totally incompetent it was
to run the affairs of State, that
the Democrats who voted for
Lowndes began to kick them
selves for having done so, and
to register a solemn pledge that
they never again would vote for
a Republican for Governor of
Maryland. And that is the rea-
son you have heard such a few
Independents say they are 60
ing to vote for Goldsborough
They are going to support the
white mans party. They are
going to vote for German, Har-
rington and Poe, and these three
Democrats are going to sweep
the State.

Talk.

We have no confidence what
ever in any boih,e benefit from
Republican State rule. Mary
land went through a Republi-
can regime from 1895 to 1899.
1t was not a satisfactory expert
ence. The very election law
taking the machinery out of the
hands of the ring and giving
the people a free ballot, upon
which the reform campaign of
1895 was fought, was passed on
the last night of the legislative
session of 1896, after a heart
breaking scrimmage against
Republican resistance, and on
that last night only by the help
of Democrats. And after the
nightmare of Republican legis-
lative graft and folly, the ma
chine elements in the Demo-
cratic party came back to
power on a tremendous wave of
reaction.
1t would be SO again, only
worse. The Federal ofiicehold
ers are the dominant power in
the Republican party at this
time. There is not an ounce of
reform in the whole outfit. -

The cry of back to the soil has
not been in vain It's echo reverber-
ates against sky scrapers; it startles
the banker, the merchant. the clerk
and the laborer; it is permeating
the very core of our municipal life,
inviting the buffeted and care worn
to the bosom of nature. Rural posi-
bilities have awakened in our citi-
zenship new hope and inspiration
and the farm is taking back some of
its very best and that too, after they
have been refined and finished in
business experience. When business
men go to farming it means that the
farmers will soon have more gooC
roads, railroads, rural free delivery
rural telephones, educational and
church facilities and elevated socie-
ty. Builders are as much needed on
the farm as in the cities, and our
cities can well afford to send few

When a man is in doubt it be-
comes his duty to investigate, and
when proof is piled upon proof it is
time to be convinced. There is moth
ing in life so valuable IS good

personally knows of several people
here that are rapidly rcgaining their

itively know that an eminent seien-
tist devoted several years of his life
to hard study and spent over ten
thousand dollars experimenting be-
fore the afflicted were permitted to
try his great discovery which is now
curing people all over the country,
after all other remedies had failed.
If you bloat and belch sour gases; if
your food lays heavy on the stom-
ach; if you have any symptoms of in
digestion, we honestly believe that
one dose of Root Juice will convince
you of its wonderful merits. Root
Juice soothes and heals the mucous
lining of the stomach, bowels ana

and strenthens the liver and kill

food in the stomach and bowels and
stops formation of acid by causing
the digestive fluids to be supplied in
sufficient quantities in natural
way and giving the liver and kidneys

COMPULSORY MILITARY SER
VICE.

England and the United States
are the two large powers where com
pulsory service in the army in times
Of peace is not required. From time
to time, and more frequently of late,
we are told that before many years
have passed, it will be necessary to
enforce one to three years mill
itary service here from every able
bodied young man. The idea is ex-
tremely repugnant for while the
physical and disciplinary value i adj
mitted, it would mean the taking of
the very years in which the average
young man really fits himself for
his life work. To return to this
preparatory work after three years
of military life is by no means easy,
as anyone who has dropped his
studies for two years, well knows.
The training to obey without dis
pute, to be punctual and respectful,
are things in which the American
boy is lacking, but could not all
this be reasonably accomplished
with drill of one hour, or less, a day,
compulsory if necessary, for all boys
in upper-grade public schools and
students in high schools and col
leges? Moreover, it should not be
forgotten that the average American
boy is a very fair shot and with
minimum of training would quickly
become an excellent sharpshooter.
With fair knowledge of tactics ac-
quired at an age when he learns
easily and rapidly, he would develop
into an excellent soldier ten years
later, If necessity required his servi-
ces, in very short time. There
are many things in our modern
school curriculum for which military
training might be substituted with
very great advantage. In cities of
sufficient size, the instruction could
be by a regular army man; in tne
smaller towns and country districts,
the training would be less efficient
both through inferior instruction
md lack of that enthusiasm which |
'omes only from massed forces, yet |
much could be accomplished even |

JACK BEALL, Ji., SAMARITAN.
Finds Place for Poor Boy Who Is
Good Chauffeur.

The Fort Worth Record has the |
following good story from Washing
ton:
Young Jack Beall Jr., has been
doing the friendly-hand act in real
earnest the past few weeks and as a
result there's a new chauffeur in
Dallas. A young chauffeur, whose car
had been stationed at the Cochran,
where Congressman and Mrs. Beall
have been living, had formed great
friendship with Jack although he
WAS ten years older than Jack, who
is not yet 3. The chauffeur. Charley
hadn't had much of a chance to get
on in the world from the fact that
early he had met the necessity of
| taking care of a widowed mother
and two sisters, and his case appeal
| ed to Jack Beall, the younger Jack
| conceived the idea that if Charley
could only get down to Texas he'd
have lot better chance of making
a greater success than being re-
markably good car driver, so all on
his own account he set himself the
task of getting Charley located in
Texas, where he felt the chances for
a young fellow making a success of
his life are measured only by the
willingness to succeed Jack began
writing his uncle, ] F. Strickland
of Dallas, of the excellent qualities
possessed by his friend and begged
him to employ him as chauffeur.
Mr.. Strickland however, had just
had man come down from Pitts
burg and he couldn't help Jack and
his friend out just at that time. But
the Pittsburger didn't make good
. and when Jacks hopes We're all gone,
&C mes a wire addressed to Jack to
send Charley down.
Jack couldn't eat his dinner for
fear of missing Charley when his
car was brought to the curb and for
an hour he waited in the gathering
dusk for the cars arrival His disap-
, pointment knew no bounds when
Charley told him that much as he'd
I like the chance he didn't have the
money to get to Texas on. This dis
; concerning condition brought a con
: ference with Congressman Beall and
/ Jack finally asked his fathers per

message which read;

The Sims Library is fortunate in
having so thoughtful and generous
friend as Mr. Ferris. The books
will be listed and made ready for
use within a few days.
Another recent contribution to the
children's department was made by
Master Harris Schuster, who pre-
sented q volume which he had read
and enjoyed and which he wished to
share with others.
Sam Walter Foss, the poet and
humorist, who died on Feb rs, at
his home in Massachusetts, had been
for g years librarian of the Somer-
vile Public Library. His love of his
kind and his shrewd insight into
the homely realities of everyday
life are seen in the poems which he
published from time to time. THE
house by the side of the road" and
1.-THE Calf Path are among his best
known verses There was something
of Poor Richards homely wisdom
and touch of Holmes flashing wit
in this philosopher-poet, who at the
same time was always and unmista
kably Sam Walter Foss."
At the recent meeting of the Tex
as Library Commission, Dr.. e. c.
Barker, of the University of Texas,
was elected chairman. The other
members of the commission are SEN
ator Walter Tips. Mrs. j. B. Dibrell,
Mrs. J. D. Savers and State Supt.
Bradley F. w Winkler was re-eleet-
ed State Librarian and plans were
formulated for library extension
through out the state.
Some sixteen small towns in
Pennsylvania owe their public libra
ry facilities to one woman, Hannah
Ann Zell who died in Philadelphia
January 80. at the age of 81. In her
declining years she was greatly In
terested in the establishment of IL
braries.
1.-The ideal city of the future will
be the city where every man will be
willing to have every other man in
the city as his next door neighbor-
willing because every other man will
be worthy--worthy in intelligence
in healthfulness, in cleanliness, and
in character. In the civic develop
ment which will produce this city of
the future, the public library is one
of the most important factors. IS.
