When Speaking in the North, bat I’ralnes
Confederate Veterans When in the South
A Kroncho Hunter of Latent Type.
(Correspondence of The Ledger.)
Blacksbukg, June 2fi.—President
Roosevelt continues to assert his
rough rider politics. He slings his
lasso of slander at the South in a
manner that characterizes him as a
broncho buster of the latest type.
In a recent speech at Arlington he
denounced, iu a very forcible manner,
the SuuLLi s treaLmenf of the negro'.
And now that the racial question is
becoming more and more agitated it
is natural that the present executive
of these United States would take a
decided stand with the negro. It
seems that he giories in reviving bit
ter memories of the past when speak
ing at the North, but when he comes
South he speaks in the highest
terms about the Confederate veterans
and their sous. When he is in Rome
he does as Rome does along that line.
He is regarded as being a man of des
tiny. Let that be as it may, he slid
into the presidential chair and if he
don’t mind he will slide out in 1904
about as easy as he slid in. How
ever, that is a matter that awaits to
be seen. He tias but iitde discretion
of speech and seems to care very lit
tle for the feelings of his fellowman.
But while there is the greatest of dis
satisfaction prevailing over the en
tire country as to Roosevelt and his
administration, if he was to be re
moved hy the mighty hand of God,
then America would clothe herself in
mourning garments and each patri
otic citizen would drop a tear for the
great man who hau fal en. such is
life. But it seems strange that the
country would forget the recent mar
tyred president so soon only to rain
a shower of abuse on his successor.
There must be something of national
interest all the time and if it is not
one thing it is another.

Music is Fitrt of Man’s Nature and Expresses
His Kvery Hentiineut.
Music is the language of the heart.
Music is love in its highest essence.
Music is a language, a universal lan
guage; it pictures and • expresses
every shade of sentiment. Often
times we aim at the beyond; in
music we fr. quently find the oh
jt-ct of our aim. Is it strange, then,
that one should find a peculiar
j delight and pleasure in this art? It
1 would be difficult to imagine anyone
! who is utterly unmusical. Human
nature has an innate love for all that
is beautiful, and music is one of its
loveliest forms. I‘. is a part of one
and seems to come nearer to one’s
nature than any other art; it touches
life in so many points. In social
life it is an important feature; in in
tellectual Ide it is a constant help
and solace; in emotional iife it gives
expression to one’s inmost and deep
est thoughts; in religious life it is in
dispensable. Can one imagine the
home without music? The home, we
might say “the cradle of our charac
ters,” is where we get our first
knowledge of music. Could we
imagine a mother rocking her babe
to sleep witnout singing a soft, sooth
ing lullaby ? What has a more pleas
ant effect than to wake in the still,
peaceful night and hear the sweet
tones of “Rjck of Ages cleft for me,
let me hide myself in Thrt?’ An
other beautiful scene! See the aged
father and mother as their faces light
up with love and hope as they watch
their band of happy children gather
around the organ and sing together
Too, how often we’ve heard it said,
and true we know it is, that religious
exercises, no matter how soul-stirring
the sermon may be, without music
seem to lose thiir (fleet.
Tne tones of music seem to touch the
heart when nothing else will. There
was once in this State a meeting car
ried on by a gr. at evangelist. He
preached a powerful sermon on one
occasion, but not one heart iu the
large congregation was touched. It
was not the fault of the preacher; he
had done his best. This particular
congregation needed some other
means of reaching their hearts. It
was music. A young lady arose and
sang ‘Where is my wandering boy
tonight” and as she sang, the words,
coming from her very soul, fl iated
into the quiet, hushed congregation
and caused many hearts to beat with
love—that unmistakable love "which
pa^seth all understanding.” God
has given us music—not from human
voices every time. How often has a
"jerry bird cheered the lives of some
of us? Oftentimes when the body of
some loved one has been laid away in
its last resting place, when all are
hu-hed and quiet because of the keen
si eke of Death, the sweet notes seem
to Hoat in from the never-tiring
singer and say, "Faint not weary
heart, God has given and God has
tMken away, blessed be the name of
God ” Should we look for music we
would find it always, for

Powells, Juoe 23.—The dry

seems to indicate that we will have

other neighbor. As usual, the candi
date shook hands with his friend and
passed a few words with him. He
asked how a certain candidate was
going to run in that settlement, and
the man replied that he had heard
his name mentioned a time or two.
“Well, how is So-and-So going to
run?” “Very well,” was the reply.
“Well,” said the candidate, “how
am I going to run around here?”
“I will declare, I don’t know how
you will run. I haven’t beard your
name mentioned.” “Good.” replied
the candidate, “it’s the still sow that
drinks the slop,” find he went on his
way feeling assured that he would
get the votes of that section.

Mr. W. F. Allen received a check
for $8,522 94 this week in payment
for that part of his strawberry crop
that was shipped to Boston. Mr.
Allen’s strawberries this season were
very profitable. He grew an aver
age of 5,082 quarts per acre on eleven
acres at the “Egypt” farm in Somer
set. Mr. Allen shipped on vVednes-
day the first crate of tomatoes from
Wicomico county. Tomatoes are re
tailing at very high prices at present
and are expected to realize big re
turns. An offer of $2,1,00 for ten acres
at Kings Creek was refused last week
The owner expects to realize $5,000
from the patch. No ripe tomatoes
will be shipped from Somerset, it is
anticipated, until next week.

(Correspondence of The Ledger.)
Etta Jane, June 24—Stars shall
go down to rise on some fairer shore,
the darkness of midnight shall follow
the brightness of the noonday, sunset
shall tell of the close of day, life
shall close in death. Last Thursday
evening, just as the last rays of the
sun was kissing the ferns good night
and the song of the bob white was
dying away in the field to give place
to the sweet song of the nightingale,
all that was mortal vt Miss Mary Ed
wards went to that land from which
no traveler can ere return. At the
time of her death she was attendi’-'g
school at Cedar Springs Institute, and
nothing was known of. her illness till
the word came telling of her sudden
demise.
Mary was the third child of Mr.
and Mrs. J. R. Edwards, of this place,
and was possessed of unusual bright
mental faculties, though only four
teen years of age. She had many
friends here who received the sad in
telligence with heavy hearts. She
stood well in her classes and was be
loved by her teachers and school
mates. The circumstances which
surround this death is the sadder on
account of the preparations the fain-'
ily had made to get her ready for the
commencement, which will tske place
just one week after she ‘ died. We
are not able just now to tell the im
mediate cause of her death. Supt.
N. F. Walker spared no time in try
ing to get word to the parents telling
them of her serious illness. Mr. W.
G. Fowler went for the body Friday
and it was laid in Salem cemetery
Saturday morning.
