Sewage Meeting

A citizens meeting was held Mon
day evening at the Court House, in
the interest OF a proposed sewer sys-
tenn for Elkton.
The meeting was called to order by
DR.. H. Arthur Mitchell, who asked
that a chairman be named. DR.. w. T.
Morrison was selected and introduced
Harry r. Hall, Assistant Chief Engi-
neer of the State Department Of
Health, who delivered an address on
the needs of a sewer system in towns
not only as a convenience, but as pre-
ventive of disease and valuable as
set in securing the location of indus
tries and the building of homes. Mr..
Hall cited several instances of towns
that suffered serious typhoid fever
epidemics and then got busy and IN
stalled sewer systems.
Mr.. Hall stated that the first step
necessary would be survey of the
town, showing exactly what could be
done, as any work undertaken should
be beginning of an ultimate COM
plete system

Delaware College Student Missing

No word has yet been heard con-
cerning the whereabouts of John Hart
zell Anderson, 17-year- student of
Delaware College and son of DR.. and
Mrs. G. T. Anderson. of Wilmington.
Young Anderson, who is reticent
youth and never goes about much,
preferring to sit at home with book
or newspaper, came home from Della
ware College last Thursday afternoon,
ate his lunch, and then kissing his
mother goodbye went out of the
house with an overdue library book
Since that time no word has been
heard of him.
The parents are nearly Frustrated
and phone calls and personal calls
have come from all directions, the
young man being very well liked both
in Wilmington and Newark His bro
ther, George F. Anderson, went over
to Carney's Point, but found no trace
of the youth there. The hospitals
have been searched and all of young
Alderson's companions have been
questioned, with futile results.
He has no near relatives in this
part of the country and as he was
we'll satisfied with his studies and was
getting along well at Delaware, no
motive is known for his sudden disap-
pearance.
Young Anderson could easily pass
for 10, being about six feet tall and
weighing about $50 pounds. His hair
and eyes are dark brown and his fea-
lures prominent. When walking his
left shoulder is held a little forward.
When he left home he wore a black
and white checked cap, dark gray
overcoat, a dark blue checked suit,
black shoes. stiff, turn-down collar,
dark tie and white soft shirt.

Primary Contests On Monday Next

Much interest is being manifested
in the primary election to be held on
Monday. at which time both the Re-
publican and Democratic parties will
nominate candidates for U. S. Sena-
tor, for Congressman, and for dele
gates to the State Conventions. The
Democrats have no contest on for the
Congressional nomination, Congress-
man Jesse ID. Price being unopposed
in the primaries. For the U. S. Sena-
torial nomination, however, they have
IA three-cornered fight between W.
Cabell Bruce, Blair Lee and David ].
Lewis. The contest has, however,
shown little signs of life in this
county. On the other hand the Re-
publican Senatorial nomination is be-
ing contested actively by DR.. Joseph
Irwin France, of Cecil county, and
former Governor Goidsborough, Of
Dorchester county. DR.. France has
with him pretty much the entire Re
publican organization in the State and
Baltimore city, the party quietly and
generally feeling that he is by all odds
candidate. would be most certain Of
winning in the general election and
thus furnishing Republican U. S.
Senator from Maryland. AS conse-
quence the nomination of DR.. France
seems assured, though Mr.. Goldsbor-
Ough continues to make claims which
do not seem to be borne out by the
reports from various parts of the
State. In this county. where it was
thought no fight would be made on
DR.. France (iust as the France peop,e
have declined to make a fight in Mr.
Goldsborough's county,. vigorous Of
fort is being made by some of Nv
GoIdsborough's personal friends and
appointees to keep DR.. France from
carrying his own county" To "a man
up tree" however, it looks as "if the
effort would not succeed the general
feeling among the rank and file of
Cecil Republicans being that it would
he very unusual and very unwise
policy for Cecil Republicans to repudi-
ate one of their own number in behalf
of a candidate from another section If
the State. An effort has been male
to inject other and side issues into the
contest; but the hard headed, sober
minded citizen seems disposed to set
tie it by saying 81 see no reason why
we should turn down a man like Dr.
France, from our own county, for a
stranger"
The Republicans also have to make
choice between Robert F. Duer, of
Somerset county, and Josiah L. Kerr,
of Dorchester county, for the nomina-
tion for Congress. Mr.. Kerr, it seems,
has been adopted by the Goldsborough
people as their candidate Mr.. Duer
was the Republican candidate two
years ago against Mr.. Price and cane
within two or three hundred votes of
defeating him-an achievement so
remarkable in this strongly Demo-
cratic Congressional District that Mr..
Duer was induced to "try again" If
nominated. Mr.. Duer, it is believed,
will defeat Mr. Price in the November
election. And so in the Republican
primary it is France. of Cecil, against
Go!dsborough. of Dorchester; and
Duer, Of Somerset against Kerr, Of
Dorchester.
p. S.-Dorchester seems to kinder
want it all.

Insist On Keeping Him

At its annual meeting in Baltimore
on Thursday, the Medical and Chirur-
gical Faculty of Maryland insisted on
continuing DR.. Joseph Irwin France,
of Cecil, as its Secretary. Because
of his campaign for the U. S. Senator
ship. DR.. France urged that he be not
reelected, but the Society refused TO
release him from the very important
position and prominent physicians
from all over the State paid high tri-
butes to his value and efficiency.

RAPS GOLDSBOROUGH

Former United States Senator
George L. Wellington has issued from
his home in Cumberland a statement
severely attacking former Governor
Phillips Lee Goldsborough as a
Chronic otfice-Seeker."
After saying that he considers DR..
Joseph Irwin France a much more
available candidate for the Republi-
can nomination for United States
Senator than Mr.. Goldsborough and
that he is confident that DR.. France
will be nominated and elected" Mr.
ueS:
Ex-Governor Goldsborough repre-
sents nothing but the old otfice-seek-
ing, office holding element in the Re-
publican party. He is in public life
for what there is in it in the way of
material gain for himself, and not for
the public good. Ever since he was
boy he has been rotating from one
office to another, from one salaried
position to another, and politics has
been to him a trade or profession, a
means to a livelihood first, last and
all the time
"His hand has always been held
out for politica! gratuities, which he
has received in large measure from
both the State and national Govern
ments. When the Republicans were
in power in the State, his was the
hand that was first outstretched for
political aims, and when the party
lost in the State and won in the nation
again was his the first hand held out,
and he has always drawn it away with
full measure, until he has become
known as the greatest political mendi-
cant of the day, and now, that he has
just vacated an office, one of the
greatest political prizes, unwillingly
vacated it. his hand is out again for
another and greater grab of public
backsheesh, with all the gall and eff
frontery of an Arab beggar in the
streets of Cairo"

Are People Weary?

But the people of Maryland are
weary of him. They have had entirely
too much Goldsborough, toto much of
one man rotating from one great office
to another, and they are glad to have
chance to vote for some one whose
motives in aspiring to an Office of
great honor are based in sincere de-
sire to be Of public service-to benefit
the people at large.
They are glad to have an oppor-l
tunity to vote for a man who is not
in politics as a means of livelihood !,
They want Il candidate for the Senate
who is not chronic office seeker
who is ready to devote his time and
talents to the public service, not as
a matter Of selfishii mercenary bust
ness, but with real desire to benefit
the people, and with no consideration
Of the pecuniary emoluments incident
to the office. Such man is DR.. JOS
eph Irwin France whose o"''' desire
is to serve the public interest with no
hope of any reward, except that which.
may come to him in the consciousness
that he has done his duty"
