DEMOCRATS HAVE MADE GOOD.

Before one decides to discharge a
servant, he reviews his work and sees
whether or not he has been faithful in
the trust which has been entrusted to
him. and if he has done his full duty
in the past whether or not he is in a
position to continue in SO doing.
Carroll has been a separate politi-
cal division for about fifty years and
during that time the Democrats have
Eeen in control of it's affairs, have
they made god? And are they in a
position to continue to faithfully and
intelligently serve the people?
These are the questions which ev-
cry voter should put to himself be-
fore deciding to make any change in
the political party which has so long
served them.
There is not time to review all the
acts of the Democratic party since it
has been i'm control of public matters
in this county, but it should be suffi-
cient for the reasonable man to OBJ
serve that this county has prospered
greatly since it's organization; that
it has built its courthouse, it's Jail, its
public schools, it's improved bridges
and highways, and all without unduly
burdening its taxpayers. All this
work which has been accomplished
within the past fifty years, must speak
for the ability of the party to manage
the affairs now and have the lowest
tax rate of any county in Maryland.
The financial condition of the county
is sound and I'm good shape and des-
pite the heavy burdens laid upon the
entire state for better schools and bet
ter highways, this county is in a po-
sition to meet them without raising its
tax-rate without bounds.

Work of French Priests.

In another letter Maj. Redmond writes
of the work Of the French priests
with all the evil that has followed
in its train. IL is good to find ut least
one beneficial result from the war. 1t
has led TO the revival OF religion in a
most remarkable way.
"As 10 this, practically every one is
agreed and il is apparent in hum
bred directions. Perhaps this revival is
most marked Of all in France. and
there il is attributabl in no little de-
gree to the splendid record of the
French priests in the army.
ITO many people it seemed a wrong
thing that the ministers of the Prince
Of Peace should be called upon to take
up arms and play a part in the terrible
work of bloodshed and slaughter which
has converted so large a portion of Eu-
rope into a veritable shambles. What
seemed wrong. and what from some
points Of view was wrong no doubt
has iu the result turned out a blessing.
The spectacle OF thousands of priests
marching and fighting for the country
, and the nag has touched deeply the
heart Of France. and many man who
was perhaps ready enough to proclaim
himself an anti-cleric viii never SO de-
scribe himself any more. The bravery
Of the French priests in battle. 900
Of them have been killed-has been
only equaied by their devotion to their
holy office.

RELIGION BENEFITED
BY WORLD WAR HORROR
Irish Soldiers Go Into Battle Fear.
lessly Under Inspiration of
Their Faith.

Correspondence Of the Associated Press.
DUBLIN. September e0.-The solace
and comfort which the Irish soldier
gathers from his religion is one of the
phases of front-line life frequently
touched upon by the late Maj. William
Redmond in his letters home. some of
which Mrs. Redmond has collected
into a memorial volume. In one of
these. given TO the Associated Press.
the popular Irish leader wrote. shortly
before his death:
The fortitude the men seem TO draw
from their faith is great and marked.
The man who has been with his chap
lain and who has prepared himself by
the sacrements is ready fo- any fate,
ana shows it III his very demeanor.
Often the writer has heard officers de-
clare their pleasure at the devotion of
the men to their religion. and fire.
quently those officers have been Of other

Religion Sole Beneficiary.

BY accident or design-one must de-
eide according to the measure Of ones
charity-the Germans have destroyed
many echurcnes and shrines and con-
vents iii the war. They present sad
spectacle, but it would seem that in
proportion 10 the ruin thus caused the
fatth has taken refuge more and more
III the hearts Of the people with the
result that. in the opinion OF most men,
relis ion has been perhaps the one
thing III all the world, so far, strength
ened and built up afresh amid the
horrible ravages Of war That there has
been a similar result all over the
world and away from the actual scene
Of war. is the testimony OF unbia sed
observers.
The fact Is that the ruin and car
mage has been SO stupe ndous, the sac
rlfices have been so great. the horrors
have been widespread. and have SO
penetrated into almost every family
circle. that almost every human being
in the world has been affected and has
turned to look for hope and comfort
beyond the grave"
