Concrete Road to Ocean City
Now Planned.

Owing to the fact that the present
roads now being built by the State of
macadam are not standing up very well
under the heavy automobile traffic, the
State Road Commissioners have been
trying out some concrete roads. These
have proved very satisfactory, being
practically indestructible. Mr.. W. b.
Miller has under consideration the build
ing of the road from this city to Ocean
City of concrete, and If the present
plans are unchanged il will be put down
this way. This road is expected to be
used great deal by automobilists going
to the seaside resort and it, for that
reason. should be put down to stand the
heavy wear.
The Commissioners believe that road
with concrete base with tar binder
can be put down nearly as cheap as the
present macadam roads are being built,
or within a couple of thousand dollars of
it. IL this is the case there is no ques-
ton as to which would be the more eco
nomical to build. as the maintenance of
the concrete would be nothing in COM
parison with the enormous cost now re-
quired. A fourteen foot concrete road
from Salisbury TO Ocean City would be
a great road, and be credit to the
State and source of profit and pleasure
to all who have need for il. Salisbury

LARGE CROWD

Celebration OF A Great
Democratic Victory

The biggest crowd ever seen in Ber-
lin assembled there last Wednesday to
witness and participate in the great

Senator Rayner was one Of the strik-
ing figures of the Senate. He had been
a member Of that body for almost eight
years and was one of its strongest de-
baters and recognized authority on
matters Of constitutional law Before
he entered Congress he had attained a
national reputation because of his Wig

was a native of Baltimore and was 81
years old. He was a member of the
Legislature when Is years old and serv-
ed three terms in the National House
of Representatives. from 1856 to 1892.
He was elected to the Senate in 1904,
after having served four-year term as
Attorney General Of Maryland. AS a
member of the committee on foreign
relations and the judiciary Senator Ray
ner devoted especial attention during
the last two years TO American foreign
problems and constitutional and legal
questions. He was a strong advocate
Of the abrogation of the treaty with
Russia because of that country's dis
elimination against passports held by
American Jews and exercised marked
influence in getting the Senate to en-
dorse such action
The control of the Senate after March
ith, 1913. may hinge on the death of
Senator Rayner. The Republican whom
it is expected Governor Goldsborough
will appoint in his place viii hold office
at least until the Maryland Legislature
meets in January, 1911. Senator Rayner' S
death removed one OF the Democrats on
whom the control of the Senate depended
in the new Congress. With his vote
the Democratic leaders counted on
mastering 10. just majority of the
total membership of 90. In any event
As votes. with the vote Of the vice-Pres-
ident in case of tie. were looked upon
as sufficient strength to insure control.
While the Democrats still have an
apparent strength of 80, the death of
the Maryland Senator reduces the sup
posed majority To point very near the
dividing line of party control.
