Chairman Virgil L. Highland announced
Monday night that the first public hearing
by the Public Service Commission will be
held at the State House in Charleston
the second Tuesday in July. Atths time
the commission will take up the matter OF
passes on street and other railways.
Is this the most important business that
our new commission can find ? To us it
seems extremely ridiculous to devote its
very first public hearing to the CUES
ton OF finding out who rides on passes
on street cars or railroad trainS-a matter
that, palpably, must have been suggested
by the railways themselves, as they are
known TO have been anxious for some
time to find some way to get out OF giving
passes. A most expensive part OF the
State machinery has been created by the
Legislature, and we think that its time
can be taken up with more important
questions than investigations as to who
rides on passes.
If the commission can find nothing bet
to do, we suggest that it visit Shenan-
doah Junction and see the miserable howell
where the passengers OF two great trunk
lines are herded together in dirt and dis
comfort. Let our commission compel
the railroads TO treat its patrons fairly,
first OF all, and make passes side issue.

was presented at Williams Memorial M.
E. Church South, Shenandoah Junction,

one of the best in the history. OF the
church, and the children proved them
selves credit to their teachers. Inter
esting recitations and dialogues were
given by the smaller pupils. Miss Estelle
Horn, whose readings are always enjoyed,
captiyated her audience as she recited
"A Daisy's Mission" The pastor, Rev:
w. A. Lynch, made one OF his splendid
talks TO the children, and as this is his
last wear in this field OF labor, he left with
them this advice: "Seek we first the
kingdom of God and His righteousness,
and all these things shall be added unto
YOU" Special commentator is due to
Miss Naomi Crawford, the popular or
ganist and to Miss Estelle Horn, who in
her untiring energy and patience in train
ing the children has proven herselt an
experienced church-worker. X.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot reach
the diseased portion ofthe ear. There is
only one way to cure deafness, and that
is by constitutional remedies. Deafness
is caused by an inflamed condition of the
mucous lining OF the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is inflamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and
when il is entirely closed, Deafness is the
result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored TO its
normal condition, hearing will be destroy
ed forever; nine cases out OF ten are
caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but
an inflamed condition OF the mucous sur

In Baltimore last Saturday VIM. H.
Anderson, superintendent OF the Anti
Saloon League Of Maryland, was assault
ed in his office by Robert Lee Ullman, a
former whiskey salesman and son OF a
prominent whiskey dealer. Ullman de-
clared that he had undertaken to punish
Mr.. Anderson because the latter had
written letter apparently rejecting upon
liquor dealers and theirfamilies. Ullman's
chivalry is somewhat weakened by the
fact that ne was once arrested for trying
10 kill his own uncle and was so brutal to
his wife that she had to leave him.
Mr.. Anderson is driving the liquor men
into pretty close quarters, and they are
becoming desperate. But their days are
numbered, for Maryland will not always
tolerate the political corruption Tor which
they are responsible and the terrible
evils that their miserable business brings
upon the State.

FOR the second time President Wilson
on Monday last visited Congress and in
person read to the lawmakers a mes
sage. This time he talked to the MEM
bers of the House and Senate OF the need
of currency reform, and urged the pas
sage OF the measures that have been
formulated by the committees OF Con-
gress. He made the point with great
force and clearneSs that as the country is
now about to have new tariff system, ii
is equally necessary, if the people are to
have full benefit, that there be change
in the currency. The President in his
address said:
II is absolutely imperative that we
should give the business men OF this
country banking and currency system
by means of which they can make use
OF the freedom of enterprise and OF indi-
vidual initiative which we are about to
bestow upon them. We are about to set
them free; we must not leave them With
out the tools of action when they are
free. We are about to set them free by
removing the trammelS OF the protective
tariff. Ever since the Civil War they
have waited for this emancipation and
for the free opportunities it will bring
with it. Ii has been reserved for us TO
give if to them. Some fell in love, in
deed. with the slothful security OF their
dependence upon the government; some
took advantage of the shelter of the nur-
sery to set up mimic mastery OF their
own within its walls. Now both the
tonic and the discipline OF liberty and
maturity are TO enSue.

THE Democratic tariff bill has been
completed by The finance committee OF the
Senate and is now being considered and
discussed, item by item, by the Senator
ial caucus. Those Democratic Senators
who feel obliged to protect special inter
ests have been protesting against reduc-
tons of duty on certain articles, but so
far they have not been able to change any
items agreed upon by the committee, and
the bill is making satisfactory progress.
There is every hope that the bill will
get through the Senate in satisfactory
shape. Though some changes have been
made from the House bill, in the main
they are Improvements and the net result
is an actual reduction in duties. The
Republican opposition is perfunctory and
of a partisan nature, and is not expected
TO materially delay the measure.
