Isaac Epps) used to feel when it
went to him while he was teaching
away off in a little country school
and was so hungry for news from
the folk back at home. know you
remember how he loved it. If any
of it's readers have a tendency to
criticise it, you just tell them to
leave their loved ones and their
homes in Williamsburg and go away
six thousand miles across the seas
and live awhile in a strange land
with strange people of strange Gus

have the spirit of criticism.
This note will reach you about
Xmas time and may it be a happy,
happy Xmas for every one of you in
our old town, My heart almost over
flows when think of the many
happy Xmas seasons that | have had
there. | am sure that there are
many young men and young women
there who will agree with me when
say that there is no feeling just
like the going home feeling at
Xmas, when they are tired of school
work and their hearts are so hungry
to be at home with loved ones and
friends. | am wondering what kind
of Christmas we are going to have
out here. My heart aches when | see
the spiritual condition of the people
of this country. Oh, that their eyes
were opened and they could see the
need of our living Saviour! While
you are all rejoicing over the birth

ROAD IMPROVEMENT
TRAIN IS COMING.
OPERATED BY u. S. GOVERN
MENT AND ATLANTIC COAST
LINE RAILWAY.

The Atlantic Coast Line road i'm
provement train, which left Rich
mond, Va, on November "a, has en-
tered our State and will be with US
until January 13. This train consists
of an engine and four cars, as fol-
lows:
Two coaches, one of which is used
for stereopticon views and the other
containing models of woodworking
machinery, operated by electricity,
and models of good roads, as we'll as
a large collection of instructive
photographs; aprivate car for the ac-
commodation of the Government ex-
perts and Atlantic Coast Line repre-
sentatives, and one baggage car.
Large, enthusiastic crowds have
met this train at every stop in Vir-
ginia and North Carolina and ex-
pressed themselves as being highly
pleased with the free illustrated lee
ture and the exhibit car, both of
which proved to be very instructive
as we'll as interesting. At a good
many places the crowds were so
large that moving picture halls and
theatres had to be secured in order
in order to accommodate them and
at other places, when the halls could
not be secured, it was necessary to
give two lectures in the coach, so as
to give all an opportunity to hear.
AS previously stated, this tain is
operated by the Atlantic Coast Line,
under the auspices of the United
States office of public rnads.
We know our people will give this
train hearty reception and take
of the opportunity to
learn all they can about the con-
struction und maintenance of good |
RI ads, as there is nothing more inn
portant for the development of our
State than good roads, we'll main

MAY SPLIT
DELEGATION
Taft and Roosevelt Men
in Maryland Seeking
to Avoid Trouble.

BALTIMORE. May 14.-Thc Maryland
faced the task of reconciiing the appar-
emily contradictory results Of last weeks
primaries. Although &C. a bare majority
of the 129 delegates were bound by the
to the national convention who should
favor the nomination of Roosevelt. a still
larger majority of these State delegates.
estimated by the Taft men as rs, were
would be able to control the convention.
With a situation like this confronting
them the leaders OF the two camps Of
delegates conferred until early this morn
ing and reached a tentative agreement by
which they hoped TO avoid trouble and
let the convention proceed smoothly.
The division suggested by this arrange
ment was that eight of the sixteen ma
tional delegates should be named by the
Roosevelt men and eight by the support
ers of President Taft.
The Taft men have not tried TO avoid
the binding provision Of the primary Law.
which declares that all thasc sixteen DELE
gates shall vSta at the national conven.
tioa III favor Of the candidate who won
the Maryland preference at the primaries
(Roosevelt) as long as lin their conscien-
tious Judgment they believe he can be
nominated.
Apparently no question as to the in
depreciation of this law has been consid-
cred. 1t is admitted, however. that the
phrase 'in their conscientious Judgment"
permits considerable latitude. and some
Of the laws Interpreters contend that 1t
binds the delegates only for the. first
ballot.
The Taft men expected to name two of
the four observation-disclosures aud had
chosen Governor Goldsborough and Will
lam r. Warburton The Roosevelt dele
gates selected Colone! L. c. Darlington,
chairman OF the Maryland Roosevelt
committee, and the fourth membe of
the MISUNDERSTANDING, 1t is agreed, will
be a Roosevelt man from the western
part OF the State, which piled UP a big
majority for the colonel at the prima-
ries.
President Taft's supporters insisted up
ON complimentary reference to his adj
ministration In the State platform, but
the strength OF this Endorsement re-
manned to be settled today.

DECLARES MEAT
INSPECTION FARCE
Former Official Tells How
His Protests Were Over
ruled.

WASHINGTON May 1.-THE stand
ard of meat Inspection has become
lower by progressive steps each year
since the present law went into effect
six years ago, according to J, w. Bur
roughs, a former inspector of meat, who
testified before the committee on OK.
penditures in the Agricultural Department
Yesterday. At the present time, accord
ing to the witness, inspectors regard their
presence in packing establishments as
something merely perfunctory.
Whenever we made an objection or
protest we expected TO be overruled by
our superiors," said burroughs. Meat
was passed as suitable for food as long
as 1t would hang on a hook. There was
a feeling of helplessness among us. and
! may say a sort of contempt for those
above u.s.
Burroughs told the committee he was
appointed to the service In September,
1906, and assigned to duty In Phtladel-
phia,
"One day in the winter of 1907 or 1908
DR.. Ralph Clements. a veterinary In.
spector, wandered with me into the base
ment of the establishment of Charles
Roesch & Sons,' Borroughs told the
committee. I'VE noticed the carcasses
of ten bulls that were to be ground into
sausage meat. They were black anil
stripgy and had n fearful odor.
I'm going to see just how bad they
are / SAID to Clements; then / pressed
several fingers against a newly-eut side.
My hand sank into the meat almost to
my wrist.
I'VE summoned DIR. Schaufer, inspect
or in charge. He examined the meat
and questioned our wisdom in condemn
ing it. | protested IL would be a menace
to health to pass such carcasses. FL
nally he ordered us to let them by.
When Schaufer left the building Glenn
ents looked at me, grinned and said: oh,
Burroughs. what's the use?' The next
day that rotten beef became sausage. 1t
was made palatable with spices and
other ingredients"

ADVANCE OF RATES CHECKED
Interstate Commerce Commission
Suspends Proposed Lumber Raise,
CHANGE SET FOR AUGUST FIRST
Delay of 12O Days is Made to give
the Commission Time to In
vestiRate the Increase the
Railroads Want.

Unofficial reports from Washington say
the Interstate Commerce commission has
suspended the proposed advance in yell
low nine lumber rates from % TO ISIS
cents, the suspension to last the usual
40 days to give the commission time to
investigate,
This is one point scored for Omaha,
South Omaha and Council Bluffs in a
contest which has lasted several years.
In 1908 the railroads advanced the south
ern pine rate % and 26ts cents to the
three cities. whereupon the traffic bureau
of the Commercial club asked for a re-
duction. The Interstate Commerce COM
mission reduced the rate to % cents, the
reduction to so into effect August |, 1910,
With the decision the commission
awarded South Omaha, Council Bluffs
and Omaha reparation for money collected
by the railroads in excess of the 25-cent
rate for the two preceding years.
As all decisions of the commission
hold good only two years, the 25-cent
rate will expire July 81, this year. The
railroads have issued orders for raise
in rate to go into effect August l, but on
application by the traffic bureau of the
Commercial club to the Interstate Com
merce commission to suspend the tariff,
the advance will not be made, II the re-
ports from Washington are true,
