GRATIFYING.

tt cannot fail to be gratifying 20
the people of Cecil county to note the
clear, forceful. intelligent campaign
which DR.. France has waged in behalf
of his candidacy for the u. 5. Senate.
1t must be further gratifying to them
to know that DR.. France will in all
human probability be elected. There
seems to be no longer any disposition
in we'll informed circles to question
his election. DR.. France has carried
his candidacy directly to the people.
Has met them in all quarters of the
State. By public speeches and vari-
Gus pamphlets he has stated his views
with manly frankness and note Of
sincerity that has won him many and
strong friends. The people have SEEM
ed to feel that in DR.. France they were
meeting one who could hardly be
classed as the professional politician,
but rather as man with a message
and "a purpose. Hence they have
"risen" to his candidacy in a most in
spring manner. As the weeks have
gone on he has grown steadily stroa-
ger until this last week of the cam
paign has brought virtual recog-
milton of his election.
1t will be no little honor and graft
fication to Cecil to have one of oar
own citizens and neighbor in the
Senate of the United States-and es-
pecially when that neighbor is such a
high type of intelligent, broad-minded,
Christian citizenship as Joseph Irwin

Unless all reports are to be distrust-
ed there is no question about the fact
that Robert +. Duer will thoroughly
and effectively defeat Jesse D. Price
for Congress on Tuesday next in this
Congressional District. And certain
ly there can be no question about the
fact that Mr.. Duer ought to defeat Mr..
Price. Acquainted as We are with
both men personally we are free 20
say that in our judgment there is no
COMPARISON between them. We can
not fail to regard Mr.. Duer as far and
away the superior man in every re
spect. We believe the District will e
honoring itself. we believe the CON
science guided element of the eecto-
rate will be only doing its duty. by
defeating Mr.. Price and electing Mr..
Duer.

THE DIFFERENCE.

Gas the twig is bent, so is the tree
inclined" This is fundamental pro-
position in education. We see its
operation in every Gay life on all
sides. We see it in the record of
Woodrow Wilson in the White House.
Until recently, Mr.. Wilson was
pedagogue. The formative period Of
his life was spent midst the archives
of educational institutions. He spent
his prime days as scholastic, formu-
lating theories. announcing theories,
teaching theories; and he did it well.
However, with such background
a man is badly handicapped when call
ed upon for the power and will to de-
eide quickly and to act vigorously, as
is ever the call upon one occupying an
important administrative office. The
executive officer Of industry, the exc
cutive officer of government, must be
essentially a motor-minded man. His
energies must be readily transferable
into channels of quick decisive action.
Woodrow Wilson's energies are rea-
Oily transferable into lofty musings
and petty theories. His motor side
runs to words, not deeds. Essentially
an intellectualist and a scholastic, he
is detached from the world of men and
things and deeds. This explains his
lack of capacity in dealing with the
great administrative problems which
have confronted him.
The country needs a leader; not
alone leader in thought and word,
but one who can take the helm in his
hands and steer the ship.
What Wilson lacks, Hughes pos
sesses. The Republican candidate
whole background is one of vigorous
activity midst men and things. Real
izing this. the people called for his
nomination. Now they are calling for
his election.

iZing this, the people called for his

At mass meeting Of trade union
lists at Kennywood Park, near Pitts
burgh, Pa, on last Labor Day, James
Wilson, president of the Pattern Max
ers' League of America, said:
81 would rather have seen the
wheels of industry stop than that the
Congress of the United States should
regulate the hours of labor and rates
of wages for free men,"
The dominant note of Mr.. Wilson's
address was plea to organized work
ers to induce the unorganized to Join
the movement. He upheld the forced
action of Congress as an example of
union labor's over. Then he crit
ciZed the National lawmakers, first,
for passing law for the benefit of
100000 tranmen when at the same
time they could have given an eight
hour day Just as easily to the 100000
unorganized employees Of the railroads,
and second. for regulating the hours
and wages Of free men"

The farmers view of the action of
Congress in requiring railroads to pay
certain employees ten-hour wage for

Apparatus Held Up at Main Street Railroad Crossing at Midnight.

For several minutes just before midnight last night Engine companies No. 1, 8, and the Hook 6 Ladder company, together with Chief Dame, were held up at the Main street cross- ing by long freight as they were speeding to a fire in Walsh's restaur- ant. Before the freight could be backed off the crossing, Engine con- pany No. 2 had arrived and had a line of hose out. The alarm was sounded from Box 1 at 11:55 o'clock.
 The fire was in the basement and kitchen of the restaurant, but was not serious. It is thought that $100 will cover the damage.
