HOPEFUL OUTLOOK.

The confidence expressed by the Re
publican party of its ability to capture
the next House Of Representatives is
founded on the obvious trend Cf public
sentiment and the ruling tendencies of
the popular will expressed in recent
elections. The great struggle will be
to capture the United States Senate Is
that possible? Without the cooperation
Of the upper House of Congress a Re
publican victory next year would not
mean much outside Of check TO further
disaster from Democratic rule. At
present the Republican leaders see a
chance of securing a majority in the
Senate, but the Democratic leaders see
nothing but a retention Of power in that
legislative body. 1t will be a close call
either way, with all the advantages in
favor of the Republicans.
1t is sixteen months until the election
and many things may happen in that
time to swing the pendulum one way or
the other but the greatest hope of the
Republicans is centered in the election
Of Senators by popular vote instead Of
legislatures, as heretofore. A Re-
publican tidal wave certainly would ac-
complsh the emu hoped for. Under
the old system of election of Senators
by legislatures it would be a practical
imposslbility to make the change. But
shifts in the Senate are more frequent
now that the direct elections system
obtains.
the Democratic majority in the SEN
ate is is. This means that nine Demo
cratic Senators will be replaced by the
Republicans if the Republicans are to
control. Thirty-two Senators will be
elected next year. OF the 80, II are
Democrats and Is Republicans. For
the Republicans to capture nine of the
II Democratic seats is no easy task,
but it is not impossible. The real hope
of the country rests in that accomplish
ment.

deficiency. The records show it. The
pay warrants drawn to early June ag-
gregsted $685., 403, 624.11. as compared
with 1868, 239. 953 40 to the same date
last year. This is an increase of S27,-
coo, yJJ. The amount would be much
greater if payments Of some claims
We're not deferred for various reasons.
Among the principal items of increase
are nearly S., Gee, 0C0 for the Treasury
Department, Sc. 700, 0JO for the military
service, $1,000, GOO for public buildings,
IS, Geo. eco for postofFce deficiencies,
$1,000, coo for the Department Of Agri-
culture, 81, 500,G 600 for independent Of
fcers and commissions, $5,50O,GC0 for
the Department of the Interior, and
81, AGO. Geo for the executive Office.
And, in this connection, it is sigpif-
cant 10 note that there has been a re-
duc.i5n of SO 000, 900 in the expenses
for pensions. Any way it is figured
out The Democratic party cannot es-
cape the indictment for ineficiency.

FOR A RIGHTEOUS PEACE.

We are all for peace, but can we af-
ford to secure that peace we hope for
at any price. in conflict with a proper
self-respect and all considerations of
national honor? A grave crisis is at
hand, and it is the duty of every Ameri-
can patriot to uphold the President,
AMI, no doubt, nothing that has come
to him as an expression of sympathy
with him and confidence in him has so
heartened him as the message from
the Christian Endeavor convention,
which met in Chicago last week, attend
ed by 10, 900 delegates. 1t is a brave
expression of the normal Christian
thought of the land in the hour of peril
"We are grateful to Cod" ran the
message, for your wise, temperate
and firm leadership; for your ardent de-
sire to preserve peace with all the
world, so far as it can be preserved
with due regard for those principles of
righteousness which alone make nations
worthy of preservation.
How different from the rawlings of
the painting Pantaloon who ran away
from duty, played false to his leader,
and is now mounting ridiculous plati-
tudes on the Pacific coast and pleading
for a humiliating recession from the
just stand taken, and who is willing
that this country should accept peace
with dishonor.

great times.
! have talked with some of these old
heroes and as listened to their stories
my eyes filled with tears and there was
JOY in my soul. Father Abram Wilson,
Of near Altamont, now SO years old,
entertained many of the old circuit
riders of that day, and his home was
one of the preaching places of the
Westernport circuit. Among the local
preachers who helped brighten the
lives of these early settlers were Revs.
Patrick Hamill and John NJ. Davis.
Both of these gentlemen were called t.
marry the young people of that day
and to bury the dead, the circuit rider
living at too great a distance to be
available for these occasions.
So popular was the Reverend Patrick
Hamill that he was twice elected a
member of the legislature of the State
of Maryland, membet of Congress and
Judge of the Orphans Court.

Garrett county's ministers, Rev. D. A.
Friend, now living at Friendsville, 80

Methodist Episcopal church, whose
life's history would make most ENJOYABLE
reading. Rev. Henry E. Friend. now
50 years of age, and a retired minister
of the West Virginia Conference. To-

H. E. Friend has preached all over
Garrett county. His life has abounded
in labor for the Church and for mankind.
Both of these gentlemen were born and
reared in the county over three-quarters
of century ago.
Of other ministers we hope to write
in another paper to appear in these
columns. 1t is we'll to recall the olden
times so that the youth may know from

Sciatica Gives
 Fair Warming
Start Taking Rheun1a at Once and Prevent Rheumatism
 from Becoming Chronic

Sharp, darting pains from the hips down the legs to the knee are signals of approach of sciatica, and should be treated at once to prevent rheun1a- tisIn becoming chronic.
 Rheuma dislodges the little uric acid crystals in the blood vessels feeding the great sciatic nerve and creates a free movement of the muscles and joints It stimulates the kidneys, liver, bowels and skin to extra work in throwing off the irritating poisons throughout the system.
 Read the testimony of Guy TorIey, the great cyclist, of 265 Dayton Ave, St. Paul, AInn.: T was so crippled with sciatic rheumatism in my hips that I could not walk without cr-utnhes- I spent over $500 without relief.

cidentally reference was made to the necessity for even better roads, and to providing legislation that tended to the benefit of those who ride in automo- piles and the people of the state at large. The governor in his brief talk agreed that as the automobile was here to stay, that good roads became q pub lie necessity, but he refrained from giving any expression Of his views on pending legislation. Naturally, the members of the legislative committee have .. kindlier feeling than heretofore towards the automobilists who enter tained them in such splendid style.
 This entertaining of legislative com nnittees prior to action in matters in which the entertainers are interested has become a habit in Hartford during the legislative session, and is appre- ciated by some of the members to the effect that they are glad to reciprocate fo- faVOrS rendered.

He said he hap day and that he went to the Crocker house ito see Landlord Parker, as he always does when he goes to New London, and as great and important changes are to be made in the CrockeT house his advice was asked as to some of them. That started the rumor. Mir. Perkins was manager of the Mohican hotel in New London a considerabl time. But in~the statement that MT.

DANGER IN USE OF
 HYNoTIc MEDICINES
Medical Examiner Kin1ball Gives Warnins-caution in Their Use.

In connection with his official finding upon the sudden death of Edward G. Andrews, Medical Examiner pr. Rush w. Kimball places emphasis upon the need of caution in the use of hyp- notics in case of sickness and especial ly without the advice of physician.
 MT. Andrews who had suffered from insomnia and nervous troubles for some time, had been in habit of taking tablets in which the chief ingredient was veronal, d hypnotic drug The medical examiner says that there is undoubtely an indiscriminate use of opiates in sickness and he advises that greater care should be taken to avoid serious applications
 pr. KimbalPs finding to the coroner is that Mir. Andrews came to his death from an overdose of hynotics taken accidentally. It IS believed that he took three tablets, containing five grains of veronal each. Ordinarily this dose would not have fatal results but Mir. Andrews had become pecu- larly susceptible to the drug and was strongly effected by it.
 On two previous occasions there were nearly fatal results from over doses of the medicine. On one of them last summer a physician remain ed with him all night before he was out of danger. The other occasion was last fall.
