Reciprocity.

There is good deal of the
iron hand under the velvet glove
that the President wears. Ac-
cording to all accounts he ne
gotiated the Canadian reciproc-
ity agreement not as bluff, but
with the full determination of
getting it executed, by this Con-
gress if possible, and if not, by
the next one. He saw last sum-
mer that the country was slip
ping away from the Republican
party. In November he saw his
own State re-elect a Democratic
Governor by u very heavy ma
jority, and if that fact were due
mainly to the refusal of Repub-
licans to vote rather than to
Democratic gains, it did not
much alter the significance of
the election returns. The Presi-
dent has determined to save the

To Our Merchants And
Farmers.

You merchants of Snow Hill,
Pocomoke, Berlin, and other
towns of Worcester County
should not lose an opportunity
to drive a nail in the Parcels
Post coffin. If it gets to going
all right it will mean the coffin
of many now prosperous coun-
try merchant. This has been
the result in England-every-
thing goes to London. You
may expect to see the CITY
PRESS and the city people in
favor of a Parcels Post-sure .
They would like to sell the
people of the small towns all
over the country single pound
of coffee or tea if they can get
Uncle Sam to carry it through
the mails for a mere pittance.
GET IN TOUCH with your SEN
ators and Congressman. Make
it your business to look out for
YOUR business. Even the farm.
er should take an interest in the
matter. He cannot afford to
help the prosperity of the cities
at the expense of the towns.
When he is in financial trouble
he goes to town to get help.
When he finds TIMES DULL
AND CROPS POOR and has
not the ready money to purchase
farm necessities, he can most
always depend upon getting it
from the town merchant near
by. This is worth appreciation.
1T is WORTH YOUR SUP
PORT. When you have butter,
eggs, corn, vegetables and hun
dreds of other things to sell in
small quantities, you find the
town pretty fair market with
no risk against RASCALLY
MIDDLEMEN, and you should
want these town merchants to
prosper. They are YOUR
NEIGHBORS AND FRIENDS.
The only way you can make a
section of the country prosper
Gus is for all to pull together.
Are you doing it here: Then
pull AGAINST Parcels Post.
One of the things that has en-
couraged the demand for a Par
cells Post is the EXCESSIVE
CHARGES of the express com
panies. This should be regu-
lated by law. The government
can and should step in and say
to the railroad companies, "you
must cease to sell rights to
others. You must carry these
express packages yourself. You
can do it cheaper and thus save
the people an unfair cost" Is
not this latter thought matter
for our Public Utilities Commits
sion9 If it is, they cannot do
anything more to the advantage
of the people of the State than
to bring the express companies
to time and SHOW THE RAIL
ROADS their duty in the mat
ter.
