MARYLAND PRIMARIES

Maryland presidential and con
gressional primaries will be held
next Monday, May 6. Taft ana
Roosevelt are offered for choice,
to the Republicans, and Clark,
Harmon and Wilson to the Demo
Gratis on the official ballots. The
chances favor Taft on the Republi-
can side. though Roosevelt will
make a good showing and may
carry some congressional districts.
The organization III Baltimore is
backing Clark and the German
following in the counties will
largely support the Speaker. Har-
mon is likely to draw more votes
from Wilson than from Clark, but
the final outcome is doubtful.
Voters not already on the lists,
must register today "Wednesday
to take part in the primaries, and
it is likely that the total vote OF
both parties will be large. In the
counties Of the second judicial
circuit; Cecil, Kent, Queen Annes,
Talbot and Caroline, Democrats
will vote direct for either Judge
William Il. Adkins of Talbot. or
Albert Constable Of Cecil. for
Chief Judge and member Of the
Court Of Appeals. The Republi-
cans have no candidate for the
place, nor for congressman, and as
Hon. j. H. Covington (Dem. is
unopposed, his name does not ap-
pear on the ballot.
Republican candidates may be
nominated later for Chief Judge
and congressman. by petition FLED
with the Secretary of State.

SUSPICIOUS DEFENSE OF HEALD

Happiness and how best to Sc
cure it, is always an interesting
study. Recently we heard one OF
Delaware's s most prominent mer
say: AT last. ! have learned the
secret Of happiness | never read
the Every Evening"
ureXperience has been directly
contrary. As relief from the du.
ties Of the day. nothing is more
reStful than to review the contor.
tions Of the Every Evening and its
principles. if we may 50 dignity
them. One Of our secrets of hap
pinc>s is that we do read the
Every Evening.
Our diStruSt at its narrOWness
has passed and our pity and kind
est feelings 90 out daily to the
editor He j, not to blame. He
does only what he is told to do
Ask the Sunday Star.
The latest joke in the political
annals Of Delaware is the Every
Evening coming out for Mr.. Heald
for Congress. 40 argument we
could use would come nearer de.
fcatimg Mr.. IIeald than their de-
fensc Of him. And. too. nopower nj
the State could 50 advance the in.
tereSt Of another candidate. as the
Every Evening opposition, penned
by the fluent Mr.. Taylor.
He says: 1t is fact that Mr.
Heald, as a working member OF
the House of Representatives. has
made an excellent record. 1t is
also a fact that. by reason Of his
experience. he could render even
better service to his State by an.
other term. In view Of this sit.
uatiOn. Republican sentiment in
general and the Republican Organ.
iZatiOn in particular-as the Or,
ganization will decide the matter
in the end--would do well to favor
the granting Of a third nomina.
ton to Representative Head. "
This from the Every Evening.
Words fail us. It is indeed toe
much.
As to our printed record Of Mr.
IIeald. it should be welcomed by
him and his convincing champion
Our criticism Of this champion is
that Mr.. Heald s record is not pub,
lished in Wilmington.
The Every Evening says we
spoke - 'Slightingly.' Ga beautiful,
ly. tender work Of Mr.. Head
Nothing Of the kind. We present,
ed the actual facts and left the
matter to the judgment Of the
readers. Our editorial was based
on the sentiment Of Republicans
as we find it. which differs from
our critic 5 view.

our Constitution. In the single act
for which he is most remembered,
the issuance Of the emancipation
proclamation. he expressly sup
ported it as an act warranted by
the Constitution upon military ne
ceSsity.
ION one public occasion he de-
cried the effect Of the counting
Of slaves in Congressional and elec-
toral representation. In comment
he said: Now all this is manifestly
unfair: yet | do not mention it to
complain Of it in so far as it is al
ready settled. 1t is in the Constitu-
ton. and | do not for that cause or
any other cause propose to destroy
or alter or disregard the Constitu-
ton. stand to it fairly. fully and
tirmly.'
He hated slavery, but his rev.
erence for the Constitution and law
was such that he said publicly
again that if a member Of Congress
he would faithfully support Il flu
gitive slave law.
His attitude toward the Dred
Scott decision is urged as in sup
port Of the pernicious project for
the recall by popular vote Of judges
and Of judicial decisions. lie
thought it an erroneous decision.
but his chief point in reference to
it was not its error. but that it indi-
Gated scheme. and was a part Of
it. for the naturalization of human
slavery. He never suggested a
change in our government under
which the judges who made it
should be recalled, but said that he
would resist it politically by vot-
ing. if in his power, for an act pro-
hibiting slavery in United States
territory and then endeavor to
have the act sustained in new
proceeding by the same court re-
versing itself.
Is there to be found here or
anywhere else support for a pro-
.ect to abolish the essential ele-
ments Or any elements Of our Con-
stitution? And yet he is cited in
support Of such action.
He loved the Government
under which he lived and when at
Gettysburg he prayed Of | may
use that word) that government of
the people. by the people and for
the people may not perish from
the earth. he meant. and could
only mean. that government under
which he lived, a representative
government Of balanced executive,
legislative and judicial parts, and
not something entirely different
an unchecked democracy.
These often-quoted words of
President Lincoln are now delib-
erately altered and argument
founded on their altered form.
- ! may be permitted to say that
! do not think the public wishes
the Gettysburg speech to be rewrit-
ten and its words changed by any
one. however distinguished, for
any purpose. least Of all in order
to support a proposition that Pres
ident Lincoln could not possibly
have had in mind"

MIL WAUKEE BANKS MERGED
First National Increases Resources to
S2s,ooo,ooo by Purchase of
Milwaukee National.

Milwaukee. A consolidation OF
two large banks has been effected by
the purchase of the good will and
business of the Milwaukee National
bank by the First National bank of
this city. BY the purchase of the
assets the deposits of the First Ma
tional bank have been increased
about 100000 to $22,725,345 and
it's resources to $29,25S,204.56, ac-
cording to the figures of the last pub
lished statements of the two banks
on June 2 last.
It's entire business and assets have
been taken over, and the business
of the Milwaukee national bank will
be conducted at the office of the First
National bank. The First National
bank has also assumed all the de-
posit obligations of the Milwaukee
National bank.
All officers and employees of the
Milwaukee National bank will be re-
tanned, it is announced.
More than 100000 in cash,
checks and securities were transport
ed in automobiles from the Milwau-
kee National to the First National
bank and afforded an unusual sight
to large crowd on the streets. A
squad Of policemen and twenty en-
ployes guarded the valuable trans
port.

OWNS TOWNSHIP OF 10000
English Landlord Possesses All but
One Small Plot In
HuddersfeId.

London.-An application to the
courts that more time be allowed to
check up the work of appraisers in
connection with the land tax has
called attention to the fact that the
whole Of the old township of Hudders-
field, with the exception of small
plot, is the property of John F. Rams
den, who owns more than 5000 par
cells of ground there. The population
of Huddersfield is 110,005, while
Ramsden's rents amount to 100000,
or about $8.15 head. The municipal
rates levied by the borough on resi-
dents amounted last year to G174,425.
The manor of Huddersfield was
sold by the crown to William Rams
den, an ancestor Of the present ground
landlord, in 1899, for $4,875. He sub
sequently acquired SO much adjoining
property that the crown issued an or
der that he could acquire no more
land. The yearly value of the Hud-
dersfield property three hundred
years ago was less than $125.

he was in the most genial and best OF

Again the hands locked. 1t happen

He called for the drinks, and, still
dazed and bordering, held up his own
arm and looked at it as at some new
strange thing. He did not know this
arm. 1t certainly was not the arm he
had carried around with him all the
years. The old arm? Why. 1t would
have been play to turn down that
young husky's. But this arm-he con-
tinued to look at 1t with such dubious
perplexity as to bring roar OF laugh

pocket.
A girl about 16 years of age who
was killed wore bracelet bearing
the name of Eva Navarro, The
initials "R. e. c." appeared on the
watch fob of man killed, and the
name Of Gideon Cousino was found
in small prayer book which was
picked up in the wreck of the ma
chine.
A man and woman were rushed to
st. Vincent's hospital. The woman
had both legs cut off and the mans
head was crushed. A boy 8 years
old was the only one in the car to
