This country has again lost yalu-
able public servant in the death last
week of Hon. Whitelaw Reid, American
Ambassador to Great Britain. He has
not only ably represented this couatry
as Ambassador but he won for himself
high reputation personally and en-
deared himself to all with whom he
came in contact officially. His death
leaves a vacancy in the diplomatic
corps that will be hard to fill. An
able, conscientious, energetic and we'll
qualified diplomat has gone to receive
his reward in the other world. We
join the nation in extending to Mrs.
Reid our heartfully sympathy in her
loss she has sustained.

MORE OYSTER FARMS.

Il Is gratifying 4, note that, at
LIST, there seems TO be something OF
a move ID u Q way Of leasing the I'M
resefve.i oyster lotions under the
altered provhions OF the sia'e leas-
ing Law. Daring last week api lica-
ions 4ere received for l,5l0 acres
Of Dattom.. rhree of these applica-
tiog~ we're Tor Bay bottoms laying
off Calvert county, and each appii-
cation was for the largest leasehold |
perluis .atle u1der the revised law,
500 acres. There are now
al lease, all told, 7,4S4 ac O. Of the
leasabe area adapted to oyster cul-
ture. The potential productive area,
subject 10 lease, varies according to
different estimates from 100000 to |
100000 acres. 1t is to be hoped |
that every acre of these bottoms,
upon which oysters can be grown,
will eventually be taken up and
farned. The state possesses an i'm
menss potential wealth In its oyster
bottoms, which must be developed.
1t is surprising that leases are so
tardy In taking advantage of the OPP
portuniiy which the revised lease
law apparently opens to them.
There are yet 5000 acres IYirg off
Calvert county that will be cut up
into tine best OF oyster farms and
which the Shell Fish Commission is
offering for lease. In other sectors
OF the Bay there are thousands of
acres of other good bottoms avail
able. The state is bound to protect
lessees Of these bottoms against de-
prsdators, and wien there are large
number of lessees controlling adjoin-
lug areas they can organize for their
own mutual protection. In Rhode
Island ard Connecticut oyster farm
ing has become an enormously pro-
titable industry. What Rhode Is
land is doing upon small scale in
way Of artificial oyster growing Mary
land is in position to do upon
great scale

Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-
dition Of the mucous lining Of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infiamed you have a Iumbing sonnd or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed, Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
ana this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrah, which is nothing but an
inilamed condition Of the mucous sur

The celebration Of Christmas
brings forth marked change. which
is short lived, but wonderful. On

motives of human efforts turns to its
opposite. In other xrrds for once
there is no shallow pretense in ones
feelings and actions TOW Yards one
another but they are true and real
following the preeepts Of the Al
mighty.
Hatred and jealousy are wiped
out and kindness steps in; greed Is
replaced by charity; all rivalries are
subdued and buried in good fellow
ship.
Strife is Ibid aside and peace and
good will reigns among men.
While this day is celebrated in
multitude Of various ways through
out the world, it might be said that
the most impressive act is u attend
ing Of church and there wors' ipplng
on Bonded knee the Almighty ruler
of the destiny of man. This we be-
lieve, is the first act of every true and
real christian before any of the other
festivities of that day are rarticipat
ed in and enjoyed.
The home on this occasion is the
scene of mirth and enjoyment. The
old folks sit around the hearth ane
watch the sparkle Of the yule logs
The youth make merry in one, an'
many various ways. The little on
utters prayer of thanks fol the gen
erous gifts of old Christ Kingle.
On the whole there is a feelin
and sentiment among all men whic
is imbued with true reality and sin

All the world is truly at peace.

Democratic Caucus Chairman
Believes It is Now More

OF State Senator Isaac Barth from

Democrats In both houses, Mr. barth
ought to be fairly we'll posted ON the

among the native legislators that u
IL moro urgent than ever now 10 have
one OF the two senators spanish

Barth, TO the proposition OF electlne

simply on the ground of nationality,
because / think the race division has
no business In the matter. But since
the bribery revelations involving four
Spanish-Americans. aud since many
newspapers In publishing the scandal
have stated that this prevents the
election OF Spnnlsh-American,
think there is now real need that a
strong representative of the native
people be sent TO Washington. ! be-
lieve the native legislators feel this
way about Il and that they viii center
ON Luna"
Mr.. Barth mentions Felix Martinez
as a possibility, but not probability
and declares that the Democrats are
standing all together with perfect
uuanimity in View OF the possibility OF
a Democrat getting one OF the tOgas.
The attempt 20 depOse r. l.. Baca as
speaker OF The house. Mr. Barth be-
