No Corn Cannery.

We very much regret that the
gentleman who was considering
the erection of a canning fac
tory for putting up sweet corn
in Snow Hill has decided not to
come, but we are also pleased
that our most prominent canner
is considering the matter, and,
may add the canning of corn to
his business of canning toma-
toes. If he does not do it this
year he may do it next.
The gentleman who came here
to investigate conditions came
to the conclusion that our farm
ers were welded to tomato grow
ing, and he would have a hard
time to secure the acreage for
corn, as il is claimed that in
this section tomatoes are a bet

A Strange and Interesting
Sight.

That was strange and inter
esting sight enjoyed by those
who looked in upon the House
of Representatives at Washing
ton on Tuesday, when the Dem
ocratic minority rushed to the
relief of a Republican Presi-
dent and voted to save his ad
ministration from discredit at
the hands of his political
friends. That the Democratic
members of the House voted as
they did from the highest mo-
tives of patriotism there can be
no doubt They realized that
the Taft administration has
been largely a failure, so ofar as
meeting the demands of the
people is concerned, and that if
the Reciprocity bill was passed,
it would, to a certain extent.
popularize that administration,
while, if it was defeated, they
would not be held responsible.
even though they voted against
it. But they also realized that
it was a step in the direction Of
real tariff reform, and so they
put the good of the country
above possible party advantage
and saved the Republican ad-
ministration measure from de-
feat.
Another interesting and edi-
flying thing connected with the
days work was that John Dal-
zell, mouthpiece of the manu-
featuring interests as he long
has been, maker of rules to gag
the minority in his capacity of
member of the Committee on
Rules, was forced first to try to
masquerade as the farmers
friend, and then to take a dose
of the decoction he has so often
distilled for others-that of
being called on to vote on a
measure without the right to
offer any amendment, or time
being allowed to talk it to death.
1t was a glorious and inspir-
ing day. Those who were fortu-
nate enough to be present
enjoyed it to the full, and the
country at large enjoyed the
rehearsal of its incidents in the
newspapers. Baltimore Sun.
