James. While the elaborate survey
submitted earlier in the Winter by
Secretary of the Interior Fall, is
apparently in the somnolent stage 1T
is rather amusing to read some back
fire obviously put out in the interests
of builder Of locomotives, in which it
is pointed out that ''the steam loco
motive of today is quite different
motive power from the locomotive OF
decade ago." And SO, it may be
remarked, the electric locomotive,
all the hydro-electric power and dis
tributingplants are also different.
The steam locomotives of the coun-
try are not only avaricious consum-
ers of the products of great coal mines
but the almost universal use of
steam is also responsible for the rail
roads devoting about half of all their
transportation facilities to the haul
ing OF coal.
This tremendous burden that is
thrown upon the transportation IA
cilities of the country is one of the
things the agricultural interests are
complaining of: and they charge it
with being largely responsible for the
nigh cost of living and for the agri-
cultural depression. While the
Government urgs waterpower and
hydro-electric development it still
maintains restrictive rules that SO
curb the possibility of reasonable re-
turns to investors, that the forward
progress of this phase of national
development is apparently tagging.
Mean while hundreds of thousands
IF men and unlimited machinery and
transportation are in constant opera
ton in order that piles of coal may
be distributed here, there and every
where, so that it can be burned in a
definite firebox to heat the pipes in
certain boiler, when everyone knows
that the commonsense of the thing is
to develop central power stations
capable of transmitting all this en-
ergy over lines of wire" by
WIRE"
OWNERSHIP OF HOMES
More than fifty-one per cent of
the homes in Des Moines, Iowa, are
owned by the occupants. At the
other end of the list is New York City
where 12.7 per cent of the homes are
occupied by their owners. The par
ents and grandparents of the adult
class of today were usually owners
of homes, and half century ago a
man who owned no home of his own
was regarded as a poor citizesn.
While homes are harder to acquire
under the changed conditions of the
country, yet, one ought not to be too
badly discouraged by the official fig
ures, for who would want to own
home in New York, City. unless
possessed Of great wealth? The
apartment house and the tenements
make housekeeping simple and the
city women will tell you that the sys-
tenn gives them less to do at home
and more time for. the movies and
other delights of city jewellers. Des
Moines stands high among home
owners, but the small towns still have
people who live in real homes.

news is coming in from all parts of
the entire country. Republicans seem
to have lost heart, and many of thei,
leaders, both of low and high degree,
sadly admit that their party is in a
bad way, and that this is looking more
ard more like a democratic year as
the seventh of November approaches.
OF course the administration at Wash
ington is coming in for a great part of
the blame, and the divisions among
the local party and STATE leaders, arc
only adding to the sadness and de
spondency of the outlook for the
grand old republican party.
In the meantime the city newspap-
ers are giving out their usual walls
over the prospect of the proposed rev.
olutionary amendments to the State
constitution. 1t is to be hoped that
the county people, are able to realize
what the effect of the passage of the
amendments will be, and are already
to vote against them ana thus proven,
airy further infringe-of their birth
right, and bestow on Baltimore such
q preponderance of influence as tt
cndanger the conservative character
o. the whole State government.

Coal Deliveries Made.

Last week and a part of this Mr.
Ralph A. Ross, local coal dealer, de-
livered coal to over 100 families in
Pocomoke. The cool days of the past
week no doubt made them all thank
full for it. Mr.. Francis M. Wilson, an
ether dealer, also delivered coal to a
number of families. 1t is thought that
within a short time there will be
plenty of coal for Pocomoke people.
AS we have stated before, local deal
ers have been assured of an adequate
supply and there should be no cause
for worry.

healthy members Of their family and
finally die of a very prosaic illness
known as old age before any Of their
five deadly ailments have sufficiently
developed to kill them. We have never
had sufficient courage to ask these
people for an explanation of such phe-
nomena but no doubt one would be
Forthcoming.
That is the sort of thing into which
nerves" get one and such people
should have our sympathy, not for
their ailments but for their lack Of
will-power. though more often we feel
that a shaking would do them more
good than sympathy.
