SCHOOL COMMENCEMENTS. We are in the period of the year of school commencements. The univer sities,the colleges and the high schools are sending out their graduates, and our respective communities are rein forced by the trained young gentle men and ladies from the schools. These occasions occur at the close of the schools and yet they are called commencements and to the graduating class they are properly so called. They mark the period when the young man has finished his school course and is about to enter upon the active duties of everyday life, for which his training has been designed to prepare him. Our public school system, which is sustained by the state, is intended to give to every child within the borders of the commonwealth the opportunity for a fair, underlying basis of educa tion. Such an education, if no other can be had, will fit him for the duties of good citizenship. It is a system designed for the education of the masses of the people, and is abso lutely free. It should receive the en- ! couragement and fostering care of all j i . . 1 our citizens. The people of our own county are peculiarly fortunate in the matter of educational advantages. They are blessed by a well-managed public school system and a number of high schools and then, as the crowning | part of our local school advantages, j we have Western Maryland College, an i institution which is doing a work ‘ w 1 , . , .ch puts it in the forefront of the i ( colleges of the state. From the high I school of our city four young ladies ’ and one young getleman were grad- , uated on Tuesday evening last, and i on the seventeenth instant, thirty-four ( young ladies and gentlemen will each 1 take the degree of A. B. at Western ! Maryland College. < Then, in addition to our local facil- , ities, we have, in the city of Baltimore, < within easy reach of our people, the j great Johns Hopkins University, a ; university that has taken the foremost ( rank among the universities of our country. At this institution those who , wish to pursue higher educational work can have the opportunity of do- ( ing so under most favorable conditions. So that the people of our section ' have within easy reach educational < facilities ranging from the free public schools up to the university, where the most advanced courses can be taken. Republicans and Socialism. The gathering in this city of Protes tant ministers who believe in Social ism has led the Tribune to remark : sagely that their arguments cannot be refuted by sweeping assertions or misrepresentations. They must be met in detail and shown to be heresies 1 1 after careful discussion. With this, | of course, we fully agre. The calm- j ness of the Tribune in the facing of | the rapidly growing Socialist propa-1 ganda is a refreshing contrast to the | excitement of the Times, which ex-1 pects the social over-turn to-morrow, and is already forecasting a very ( bloody state of affairs. But w r e should ( like to have the Tribune, or some other honest Republican newspaper, give us a scientific explanation of the relationship between socialism and the Republican party. Many j people are inquiring with much ear- j nestness and considerable perplexity why it is that, with the greatest of I Presidents in office and an all-wise, party in power for the last twelve years, social unrest and Socialism should be making such strides. If they say, it is in the power of the Republican party to make times pros perous, why have they not made them so prosperous, why have they not so written and administered our laws, as to bring about content and a be lief that every one is really getting; a square deal? Others who hate So-i cialism believe that the Republican | tariff is not merely mother of the Trusts, but also foster-mother to So cialism, by creating many great for tunes by law, and taking favored bus-j iness men into partnership with the government. It would of course, be idle for avowed Free Traders to comment on this; but it is time for superior Republican wisdom to set at rest the anxieties of many thou sands of plain, American—born citi zens who do not favor Debs for the Presidency.—N. Y. Evening Post. We notice that the Republican con gressional committee offers $l5O for the best article, not exceeding 1,000 words, on the subject: “Why the Republican party should be successful next November.” Because Theodore Roosevelt and an army of office-hold ers would be heart-broken it It weren’t.

Talbott was chosen Democratic candidate for Congress from the Second Congres sional district here today. The con vention was perhaps the dullest and briefest ever held in the district, last ing not moi’e than 35 minutes. Two years ago the convention met at West minster, and while Mr. Talbott was given the nomination without a fight, much enthusiasm was manifested. It is a noteworthy fact that just 30 years ago, almost to the day, Mr. Tal bott made hs initial entrance into na tional politics by securing his first nomination for a seat in Congress. The convention was called to order by Edward H. Hall, of Belair, a mem ber of the Harford County State Cen tral Committee, and Guy W. Steele, of Carroll, was made chairman". ,The secretar}" was William P. Freeny, of the Fifteenth ward, Baltimore. With the selection of the permanent officers I it was only a few minutes before the i committees on credentials and reso lutions were chosen. It took the com mittees about 10 minutes to make their reports, as they were materially as sisted in framing up the resolution by Michael Fahey, of Havre de Grace, who is said to be State Treasurer Mur ray Vandiver’s righthand man in the county. The resolution adopted is as follows: The Democrats of the Second Con gressional district ot Maryland in con vention assembled indorse and ap prove the record in Congress of the present Representative Hon. Joshua Frederick C. Talbott, and congratulate the pople upon having such a faith ful and efficient servant. True to the principles of Democracy, he has ever been steadfast in standing with the party for the rights of the people, firmly resisting the constant and insid ious efforts of the present Administra tion of the national Government to centralize its power and deprive the States and the representatives of the people of their constitutional and in herent rights. And be it further re solved, that we pledge our hearty sup-; port and united efforts to secure the 1 election of candidates on the Demo- 1 cratic ticket to be nominated by the Democratic Convention to be held in Denever in July next. The committee on resolutions was*. Fifteenth ward. John J. Flack; Six teenth ward, George H. Meyers; Balti more county, John Mays Little; Har ford county Dr. W. B. Kirk, and Car roll county, E. O. Weant. Carville D. Benson nominated Mr. I Talbott, paising him highly, and then the other portions, of the district sec onded the nomination. The city men were passed over, allowing Mr. Benson to make the speech. The committee of notification is as follows: Baltimore county—Philip Watts. Harford county—William Hopes. Carroll county—Harry F. Mussel man. Fifteenth Ward—" William P. Freeny. Sixteenth Ward—Robert Woodall. The Perilous Negro Vote. Of all the large cities of the North Philadelphia has the largest propor tion of negro citizens. As a rule they are proportionately more careful than our white citizens to go to the polls and cast their votes, and they vote solidly for Republican candidates. There are reasons for this preference which are not discreditable to negro voters. They do not forget that their right to vote was conferred upon them at the instance and through the ef fort of the Republican party. The gratitude of the negro voter is a solid Republican asset. No matter whether i the policies of the party have been right or wrong, there has been no j consequent change in African fidelity. This is an unfortunate condition. The ■ voter who casts his ballot blindly with out reference to the character of the | men or the possible effect of policies | he favors is a public danger. He is i almost as undesirable a citizen as the wretch who sells his vote to the high est biddgr. The time must come when negro voters will have to make choice be tween a suitable exercise of the elective franchise with a view to the promo tion of good government and the danger of losing it through disfran chisement. Votes that are not free are always perilous. A possible in citement to free voting at the coming election of Representatives in Congress may arise out of the effort of Senator Foraker who appeals to negro voters throughout the country to aid in de feating candidates who will not pledge themselves to support his bill for un doing the wrong done to the negro soldiers by President Roosevelt in the Brownsville matter. That is a measure of reparation which the negro is fairly entitled to insist upon. If as a result of this incident, a be ginning shall have been made in get ting the negro to take thought of the consequences of his voting and of the responsibilities inhering in the exer cise of self-government ultimate good may come out of the Presidential blundering.—Phila. Record. Small Towns Best. No stronger portrayal of the effect of the cities on our citizenship was ever made than in those striking words of Wendell Phillips: “My ideal of civilization is a very high one, but the approach of it is a New England town of some 2,000 in habitants, with no rich man and no poor man in it, all mingling in the same society, every child at the same school, no poorhouse, no beggar, op- j portunities equal, nobody too proud to j stand aloof, nobody too humble to be i shut out. That’s New England as it ; was fifty years ago. The civilization that lingers beautifully on the hill sides of New England, nestles sweetly in the valleys of Vermont, the mo ment it approaches a crowd like Bos ton or a million of men gathered in one place like New York rots. It cannot stand the greater centers of i modern civilization.” The Cautious Reporter. “Young man,” said the editor to the new reporter, “you lack caution. You must learn never to state a thing as a fact until it has been proved a fact. You are apt to get us into libel suits. Do not say “The cashier stole the funds;” say ‘The cashier who is al leged to have stolen the funds.’ That’s all. Oh, get something about that First Ward social tonight.” The next day, half way down the social column, the editor saw the fol lowing cautious paragraph: “It is rumored that a card party was given last evening to a number of re puted ladles of the First Ward. Mrs. Smith, gossip says, was the hostess, and the festivities are reported to have continued until 11.30 In the even ing. The alleged hostess is believed to be the wife of John Smith, the so called high-priced grocer.” THE DEMOCRATIC ADVOCATE, WESTMINSTER, MD. Where Men Are Needed. Now comes the season when there i are too many in the city and too few out of it. For several years last the farmers have wailed because of the ■ lack of farm labor; have seen them -1 selves seriously handicapped by the paucity of hands. Women go out and ■ do men’s labor; so do the small boys. ■ In some places they draft the tramps, I willy nilly. But with all these ex ■ peditions there are not enough to do > the necessary work. Some of the men who are out of > work really desire to earn a liveli - hood; they' are not tramps and loaf ers from preference. Yet they walk * the city streets in the vain quest for ■ something to do and drift into habits ■ of vagrancy, when they could by a - walk of a day or two into the country find enough work to keep them very ’ busy till October. These are the un ■ j attached the unmarried, and they are ■ i the vast majority of park benchers. • | The man with a family must, as a rule, ‘ get work where his family is or ap ■l ply for municipal charity or starve. 1 i The alternative of desertion and tak -1 ing up the life of vagabondage is not ! to be considered. But these men are i the exceptions. The homeless and hungry can find ’ | home and victual on the farms. The ■ ; country needs them, the city doesn’t. ; A general movement back to nature ■ would benefit all concerned; the city, the country, the unemployed. It is so ' simple a solution that the unattached individual who starves in the city de serves but scant sympathy. By the law of supply and demand the man must go where men are wanted—or cease to exist. A Retrospect. The Evening Post, so long domiciled on Fulton Street must be pardoned a pang at the passing of the Fulton Street horse cars. Long one of the I sights of the city, their disappearance means the loss of a topic for jesting by inland contemporaries, and by so much a decrease in the proper adver tising of the metropolis. Amid all the hurry and bustle of this teeming life of ours, it was a jwy to contemplate the quiet and restful spirit in which this transportation line went about its daily duties. It was a measure ; of the city’s transit progress not now to be replaced below the Bridge, that was peculiarly soothing and comfort ing to the Harlem straphanger as he I contemplated what might have been; had subways and elevateds not been invented, indeed, as a lesson in char acter-building and morals it had with in it the text of a dozen eloquent ser mons. Who could see one of its five cars gayly jump the track and pass around some obstacle without learn ing the lesson of self-help in difficul ties, or being inspired by. this re fusal to be hindered in the achieve ment of its end? Even its shabby j gentilitv became it well, suggesting ! as it did the day of small things, that democratic age which spurned uni forms and other appurtenances of effete aristocracies, and valued other things besides the dollar. A second funeral for Clinton? Is there not some historical society, some devoted band of descendants of Revolutionary patriots, to perform adequate public funeral rites for the Fulton Street j cars ?—n. Y. Evening Post.
