Bishop Mann Visits Home Of
Mr.. Merritt

Mr.. and Mrs. Robert Merritt. of near
Snow Hill have had two distinguished
visitors this week. Bishop William
Cameron Mann. Protestant Episcopal
Bishop of the Diocese of North Dakota,
and Mrs. Mann, have been their guests.
Mr.. and Mrs Merritt formerly lived in
Fargo. where they and the Bishop
formed very strong friendships.
Bishop Mann says that while the Epis-
copal Church is weak in North Dakota
the work there is interesting and inspir-
ing. A very large element Of the pop
ulation is foreign and there are whole
villages of lcelanders. The State he
says. affords wonderful opportunity for
sociological study. There is not mil.
lionaire in the State and not an able
bodied pauper. Any man who is willing
to work can find work to do and be vel
paid for it. While the early immigra-
ton was largely from the north of Eu-
rope of late years great numbers OF
Poles, Lithuanians, Croatians and Hun
garians have come in.
These are of the type that frequently
settle in the slums of the cities and tn,
manufacturing centres and form a very
undesirable element Of the population
Out there. however, when they get upor
the land. where the wind blows across
the open parties and they are called upor
to dig their living from the earth. they
develop into excellent citizens, industri.
Gus. frugal and self-respecting and are
making money.
Bishop Mann says the women OF North
Dakota vote only in school elections and
seem to have no great desire for the ex-
tension Of the suffrage, he said. was this
Before the suffrage is forced upor
women | think they should have an
opportunity of voting on the question
of whether they want it. -

Walter b. Miller. Of Salisbury, a
member of the State Roads Commission
of Maryland. addressed. the Delaware
Legislature "Wednesday afternoon, and
asked the General Assembly to refrain
from repeating the law whereby Gen.
Coleman DUPONT. of Wilmington. was
empowered to build boulevard the
length of this State.
His argument was that if the act
should be repealed Maryland would be
unable to construct modern road at a
cost of SIS. 900 designed to connect the
proposed boulevard with network of
improved highways through Maryland
and thence to Virginia.
Mr.. Miller said movement was I'M
der way in Maryland whereby system
of roads 1900 miles in length will be
built TO connect every county seat with
Baltimore. He said he held no brief
from General DUPONT, but wanted the
boulevard constructed in order to secure
the conditional S75, 600 appropriation.

From the Baltimore Sun.
Bull Moose from all sections of the
State met at an informal conference at
the Emerson Wednesday afternoon. and
unanimously resolved TO form per-
manent organization along lines oppos-
ed to any form of amalgamation or fu-
sion with the Republican party.
No attempt or suggestion was made
TO hold out the olive branch to the Re-
publicans. All the leaders of the Repub-
lican party were bitterly denounced for
their conduct IN the past and one Of the
features of the meeting was an attack
on Governor Goldsborough and Senator
William Z. Jackson.
Robert ID Grier. of Salisbury. who
was candidate for Congress from the
First district last fall, charged in his
campaign that neither the Governor nor
Mr. Jackson was supporting him, and
when he arose W Wednesday afternoon he
made known in plain language his esti-
mate of both.
Governor Goldsborough. he said sold
himself body and soul, to William p.
jackson. who is walking around in the
shoes of dead man, and they do not
fit him. Jackson paid for everything
he received. but if he decided to run for
Sheriff of his own county tomorrow he
could not be elected
The speech was heartily applauded
and cries of Good, Good" were heard
coming from different parts OF the room.
