soRAA's WORDS OF WISDOM.


Senator Borah said some things in
his address at Republican gathering
in Detroit that should be pondered
deeply by every American citizen II
is not too much to say that the sena-
tor Ia few words stated the one
great problem that confronts us as
nation. His views are those OF for
ward-looking citizens of all political
parties. No prophet Of despair is this
man and he is equally as far removed
from the standpatter who insists that
the whole fabric Of society viii go to-
pieces unless things remain as they
are. He is keenly aware Of the splen-
did opportunities Of the present age,
which is better than any that has pre-
ceded ii, but he recognizes Just as
clearly the necessity for changing
some things and he succinctly defines
the problem as follows.
mo man living in this splendid age,
amid these exhilirating environments,
can afford to permit the corroding poi
son OF pessimism to enter his soul But
on the other hand, the curse Of our
age is that cold, cruel, selfish con
seryatism, which, living In its ease and
comfort, enjoying wealth and all i'll
brings, refuses To see or sympathze
with the condition Of those who, in the
midst OF a world Of plenty, are border
ing on the line OF hunger and misery,
who refuse to see the new conditions
or the new problems which must be
met and dealt With IN the same spirit
and with the same courage and pro-
gressiveness that our fathers met the
problems of their age The great and
almost superlmnlan lash my friends,
is not the gathering Of wealth, but It's
fair and equitable distribution"

ON WAY TO OYSTER BEDS.
Two Schooners, lowed by Tug,
Leave for Lower River.

Bound down the river to the Potomac
oyster beds after oysters for the
Christmas market at this city, two
schooners left here last night in tow
of the tug James O. Carter, to be taken
to point well down the river where
they can use their sails without danger
from ice. A fleet of about fifteen oys-
ter runners is at lower Potomac points
loading oysters for the market here,
but reports received from the lower
river state that many of the oyster
dredge boats have already cut out and
gone home for the holidays and that it
Is difficult to obtain oysters.
A day or two ago buyers from Bal
timore and Crisfield. Nd. were at
Colonial Beach and other points along
the oyster section. and were paying so
cents 4 bushel for bivalveS aboard the
dredge boats and were taking almost
any kind of oyster offered. To get
loads for the market here the local
runboat masters have to meet this
competition. and it is probable that the
price for oysters for Christmas will be
higher than has prevailed.
If all the boats now down river sue
coed in loading and getting back to
this city the market will be we'll sup
piled for Christmas, and the dealers
are expecting a good supply on hand
by the early part of this week.

READY FOR HOLIDAY SEASON:
Owners of River Craft to Celebrate
Christmas at Homes.

With the exception of the few oys-

service throughout the winter, a large
proportion of the vessels that bring
wood. lumber. canned goods and other
commodities to this market have been
laid up for the Christmas holidays and
their return TO service after the new
year depends entirely upon 1.-THE wealth
er. The few craft still in service will
within the next week seek harbors
down river and captains and crew will
go to their homes to enjoy the Christ
mas merriment.
There is no section of the country in
which Christmas is observed as il is in
the river counties of Maryland and Vir-
ginia. and from Christmas eve until
New Year day parties and entertain
ments are constant, each family in
turn entertaining neighbors at dances,
charades or other forms of amusement
For weeks before the coming of the
holiday season the young people plan
for the great time and the fun they
will have.
dredging feet also lay up. and on the
farms only the necessary work of look
ing after stock is performed Neither
high freights nor anything else can in
duce the average Potomac boatman to
keep his vessel i'll service at Christmas
time. and this season will be no ex-
ception to those OF the past century or
longer.
