 Champ Clark is essentially a mans man. There Is something in his rugged personality. with the masterful sheer ity which underlies it, along with its vigor. with it's aggressiveness and yet withal it's kindliness and absolute jus tice. which endear the big Missourian 10 the hearts of men. IL Is both truth ful and just to say that Champ Clark Is the most universally popular speaker that has occupied the second station in the government within the quarter century.
 Although from the beginning the speaker has subordinated himself and hIs personality to the welfare of the party. his services have been of the highest value known to the government His long experience and his admirable temper and equipment have made him simply invaluable in counsel. and only the records of caucus can disclose how vital and Indispensable a part Chang Clark has been Of every democratic conference and of every democratic pol. icy. .....
 The democratic speaker emerges i'm to the campaign with remarkable force and aggressiveness in asserting the i tcongressional record of the democratic house. and with tremendous vigor r defending it against the attacks of the republican president and republican partisans.

Time Some One Was
Hanged.

Everyone has noted the APP
parent tendency of crimes of
violence to come together or in
cycles. Astrologers explain this
in one way, psychologists in
another. Doubtless the element
of suggestion enters strongly
into the matter.
But whatever the cause, it is
imperative that the people find
a remedy for such crimes as the
murders and suicides that have
lately disgraced Maryland and
other States. AS we have sug-
gested before. a stricter enforce
ment of the law against pistol
carrying might better things
somewhat. 1t would tend to
prevent those crimes of the kind
that are committed unpremedi-
tatedly. But even that would
not go to the root of the matter,
which is the lessening regard
of the average man for human
life and the law.
What is needed here is few
convictions for murder in the
first degree. We need to have
impressed upon us something of
that solemnity which comes
when we hear or read of the
words of the judge, "And hang
ed by the neck until dead. +"
Nothing less than this will re-
lieve the American nation of
the reproach properly laid upon
it by other civilized countries
because of the low value placed
by our people on human life

We see in the daily press
strong limitations that Mr..
Bryan is going to muddy up the
Democratic political waters.
We can't believe that he will
do anything of the kind. We
have been his faithful followers
because he was the chosen lead
er of the Democracy. We have
cheerfully followed him to de-
feat long enough, and with
thousands of other Democrats
we feel that he should become
an humble and thankful follow
err of the men who are putting
the party on its feet and making
it almost sure of success next
year.
If Mr.. Bryan is as wise as he
ought to be he will wait till the
party is in power before he
again pushes himself to the
front. Democrats want to win.
They are tired of being the mi
nority party of the nation.

Evils OF High Tariff

In a recent issue of the New
York Evening Post, Mr.. Thomas
Scanlon published a strong
letter against the present high
tariff, concluding it as follows !:
"The high tariff has retarded
consumption. The manufac-
turers are holding out for their
stipulated pound of flesh, and
they may get it eventually, for
consumption cannot be indefi-
nitely postponed. But what
about the workmen who are
laid off in the meantime : They,
like the consumers, are sacri-
feed to the selfish interests of
designing monopolists.
The lesson will have to be
learned, and it is being learned
painfully. that there is no solid
and enduring reward for labor
except as it comes out of pro-
duction ; that no law which re-
stricts production can increase
the total of the goods produced,
and that the surest guarantee
for the payment to labor of its
wages. as well as to capital of
its dividend, is to be found in
removing every obstacle, natu-
raj or artificial, to the free play
of enterprise and industry. 1t
is passing strange that nation
claiming to be enlightened
should for SO long a period dis
regard these elementary prin-
ciples. Perhaps it is our blind
conceit of success that makes
us think we can dispense with
free competition in economics
and with the Ten Command
ments in politics.

Wants To Know About
Snow Hill.

Inquiry has been made of DR..
John l.. Riley, Secretary of the
Snow Hill Board of Trade. rela-
tive to the location here of q
corn canning factory. The in
quiry comes from a gentleman
who is already engaged in the
business in this State. He has
two factories, and he is con-
sidering the advisability of NOV
ing one of them from the upper
part of the State to Snow Hill.
He has asked for information
about a site for a factory. He
wants to know if the farmers
will plant three hundred acres
in sweet corn for him the first
year. He wants to know our
freight rate to the Northern and
Western cities. And he makes
inquiries like a man who means
business.
DIR. Riley has given the de-
sired information, and many of
our farmers have expressed to
him a determination to encour-
age the enterprise knowing
that the growing of sugar corn
at 5000 per ton will pay them
better than the kind of corn
they are now growing. The
crop can be gathered at time
very suitable to the farmers,
coming in between their regular
crops.
The section around Snow Hill
is one of the best corn-growing
sections of Maryland, and we
believe the gentleman who
seeks information regarding the
establishment of a corn canning
factory here is on the right
track. If he comes here we
will treat him right, and it looks
to us that he will make money
if there is any in the business
anywhere.

Keep Sweet.

Rev. Russell Conwell, of Phil
adelphia, is level-headed. He
says that he is sick and tired of
hearing public men held up to
scorn and contempt, when many
of them deserve the praise and
confidence of the public. 1t is
not right, and the last men to
speak ill of their neigbors and
accuse them unjustly is the
preacher of the gospel. Thank
the Lord, Snow Hill has none
of that kind.

"THE SERPENT" Subject of Address By Rev Dr. Swain at Vesper
 Institute

"The Serpent" is the subject of the address pr. Swain will give on Sun day at o'clock at the Vesper Insti- tute. Few portions of Scripture have entered so largely and vitally into re- ligious thought as Chose concerned with the origin and nature of sin. To many people of today the problem has been one of perplexity. The pastors address is aimed to throw light on this subject. He will speak of it from the story of the temptation and fall of Adam and Eve. These ques- tions he has been asked to consider: Is the story true? Is 1t of religious value? If man ascended from the an- imal and through 8 state Of savagery, how could he fall? Did a wise ser were the instrument of some subtle Is all the sin and suffering in the world due to that one act of disobe- dience? If so does it not seem un- just?

 MT. King is to give three concerts this season for the Brooklyn Insti- tute in the Brooklyn Academy of Mu- sic. This will be an opportunity to hear master of the violin.

A. few states for awarding damages have adopted the principle of "com- parativel negligence" In one state or another there is precedent for almost any change that may be desired
 The other way is by law to require each employer to compensate em- ployees injured while at their work according to an established uniform rate regardless of negligence except for wilful misconduct). This plan has been in force in England since 1S97 It makes each industry bear it's own cost in lives as we'll as in depre- citation of machinery. Employers will insure against this risk and mar ket the product at a price to cover the expense so that the burden will be distributed among all consumers instead of falling on the individual worker. This is a radical departure from old theories of liability, but it is reasonable and just and is the most economical way to distribute these losses vital of industry.

NEW RASPBERRY Y-STRAWBERRY
Ry W. B. James, Atlanta, Logan
 County, Illinois.)

(Ry w. B. James, Atlanta, Logan
 County, Illinois.)
 In Logan County we are growing a new berry that bids fair to revolution ize the berry industry of this state It is called the Yankee Raspberry. cross between the red raspberry and the strawberry. The origin of this berry is obscure, but it is said tc have originated in a small town ir this state. It appears that the red raspberries and a large variety o1 strawberries grew close together. and fin some manner the bees carried the pollen from one to the other, and 8 new berry resulted from the seed thai fell on the ground.
 The berry is very large, some grow ing to the size of a hulled walnut The berry resembles the red raspber- ", but has the shape and size of g hollow, like the raspberry. It is without question. the handsomest berry grown
 1t grows on a bush about three fee, high. the stalk being covered with thorns like the raspberry. In color H Is a beautiful red. This is a dry berry, requiring sugar and cream tc bring out the flavor, which is peculiar to itself, slightly resembling the null berry. and there is a lingering deli cate after-f1avor.
 The Yankee Prince is prolific yielder. beginning to bear about the time strawberries come in, and con- tinuing to bloom and bear until fall The bloom is pure white and resem- bles the May apple blossom. A small patch feet wide and 100 feet long produced $200 worth of fruit, which is equal to s6.000 per acre. ai 15 cents per quart
 Another thing about the berry is that it requires no cultivation. The vines are moved close to the ground either late in the fall or early in the spring. and the new shoots that come up bear the same season. Weeds do not seem to bother them, the new stalks coming up so thickly as to kill them out
 Plants may be set out any time from October 18th to November 18th or early in the spring. If set out in the fall they will bear the following summer.
