have attempted it. But it has led to
sea of trouble and we have now to con-
struct bridge across this sea, for we
must cross.
The people of this great county do not
want to take this bridge without paving
for it, and MIR. Legore cannot afford to
give his labor and money to this county
We are an honest people and able to pay
what is right. The people have no
right to do anything but what they be-
lIeve to be right 1t is fine bridge, but
is there anything too fine for great
people.
There only remains one thing to be
done, and that is for Mr.. Legore and the
County Commissioners TO get together
and settle this difficulty once and for all.
The County Commissioners act under
oath on their conscience and are honest
men. Let Mr.. Legore make out his bill
and present 1t TO the County Commits
sioners, and there ought not TO be any
insurmountable difficulty in arriving at the
fair cost. or at a fair valuation of what
the county ought to paw, and that we be-
lieve that they will pay. Somehow this
great county has got its great, big foot
in a trap and there is nothing to do but to
get it out. There is one right way and
safe way. and that is, let all parties
agree TO do tight, and if exact justice
cannot be done get as near to it as
possible.
The bridge is there and the roads are
there, and the public has been using
them for ten years, aud they have been
extensively used and the people of this
county cannot afford to do this without
just compensation.

connection with this letter that you pub
l;sll the following five sections of that act.

Wedding of Royalty.

Matrimonial alliances as a means of
preserving international peace are prov
ing glittering failures. Kaiser Wilhelm
had an English mother. but his feeling
toward England is reported to be far
more bitter than that toward Russia and
France. Prince Louis of Battenburg, an
admiral of the British Navy, German
born and German bred, must fight against
his brother-in-law, Prince Henry of Prus-
sia, and his wife, German also, is sister
of the Grand Duke of Hesse, a general
in the German army. For years it has
been the policy Of the reigning English
royal family to look to Germany for suit
able wives and husbands for its princes
and princesses, but these dynastic con-
nectons do not seem to have made for
peace. The Cars family is similarly
allied with German houses of more or less
regal importance. All these connections,
however, count for nothing as compared
with popular feeling or racial antipathies.
When the people of Europe realize how
worthless these royal heads are they will
get rid of them in short order.-PhiIadel-
phia Record.

URBANA PROTEST DISMISSED

The Board of Election Supervisors on
Saturday last heard the evidence in the
Urbana contested case-Engand v. Eng
land. Mr.. Walter England, former
Judge. had been named by the Demo-
cratic Supervisor for rea2pointment, but
charges were preferred against Mr.. Eng
land by his brother. Nathan England,
that Mr.. England had left his post as
Judge and electioneered on the outside"
In view Of these circumstances the Board
declined to reappoint Mr.. England. and
new names were called for, and Mr..
Charles Yaste selected. The names were
given to the Board bv the Democratic
County Central Committee. Mr.. Walter
England having been informed Of the
charges, demanded hearing, which was
accorded him, and the election officials
who were engaged with Mr.. England
promptly declared that he was innocent,
and the Board of Supervisors exonerated
him. An attempt was then made to have
the name Of Mr. England substituted for
that Of Mr.. waste. who had qualified for
the position. The Board declined to
make any change. The matter was sifted
closely by the Election Supervisors. and

RsS@R Read over the following clause OF
resolution adopted at recent meeting of
the Democratic State Central Committee
in Baltimore and realize its full signifi-
canoe:
Great as is the importance of COM
plete Democratic registration to insure
the election of Democratic United
States Seaator, six Democratic members
of the House of Representatives, and
Democratic Associate Judge in the Third
District, this is not the full extent of our
responsibility and duty TO the Democratic
party this year in the work OF registra-
ton. 1t should be brought home to the
Democratic voters that unless their names
are placed upon the books this year they
will not be entitled TO vote III the primary
election next year when State officers and
county officers are to be nominated, ex-
cepting in Dorchester county, where
there will be day for registration just
prior to next years primaries. In the re-
mainder of the State there will be no
such opportunity"
