Upper Marlboro' a suburb of the National vVashington will never be a .mifacturing centre from the -i it is a popular residence city, re the wealthy from all parts of ie country are wont to congregate. It is the policy of those who are promoting its development to encour age this spirit, and in order that it ma}’ continue to be an attractive home for rich people, factories of all kinds will be kept in the distance as much as can be consistently done. Few realize what an opportunty there is here now for the establishment of an inr’u'rial town. By the expen diture of moderate sums wonderful changes could be made in our environ ments in a short time. The utilization of the Western and Collington branches for water power would ac complish a double purpose. They could run large mills; and, at tie same time, could be made to drain thoroughly and effectively most of the malaria-breeding marsh land in our midst, thereby accomplishing an end “devoutly to be wished for.” This town is, by the new railroad, within fifteen miles of Washington and about the same distance from the the Chesapeake Bay. It is, therefore, in this respect admirably located. Should the railroad, eventually, get a terminus also at Drum Point, we will thus be brought in very close connec tion with one of finest seaports in the country. Ours is not only a beautiful region, but it possesses natural resources that need only to be known to be apprecia ted. Added to an unusually produc tive-soil, we have fine clays, sand, val * liable marls, and several varieties of stone. Canning fi ctories, for oysl i s ■ winter and fruits and vegetables in v*mer, might be profitably operated line of the railroad, and es- My here. and handle factory might work up the valuable hard woods of the region between the bay and river, which has hitherto been without rail road facilities. A good flour mill could be made to pay here, and some of the tobacco of this section might be manufactured into a saleable product for smoking purposes. This is but a suggestion as to the possibilities. 'There would be a bright future for our town if we could induce capital to come here. And we should •not despair, in view ul what l as been done in recent years. Few towns in the State can point to more substantial improvements than we have witnessed in the last ten or fifteen years. A new Court House, a fine hotel and an other renovoted, new stores, handsome dwellings, a bank—arc a few of the many evidences of our growth. The streets and sidewalks of the town arc very .different now from what the}’ werdi > <ew years ago.

'N'piTDii: In my last letter I cave >s.nie of Spartanburg City as I hi 1ST:!. 1 propose now, with permission, to follow it up with >1 development since that time, o give some manufacturing sta lin' city and county, icfore going into details, I wish ■ rulers to understand that what is iven arc facts, for in reviewing this icrfttl advancement—all since 1880— i at times tempted to feel that “Aladin ill his wonderful lamp" has passed over .Ids section, and caused our genial sun shine to burn into existence the wonderful progress which is seen on every hand. No section of our great country has ever witnessed the like. No section of our South can hear even a faint resemblance. If the mind of the most astute economist was taxed to give the “whys and where fores", it could only answer "it is so”; hut to a plain everyday man, who has been in touch with this people, having noticed the native congeniality and harmony of public enterprise, coupled with nature's gifts, in climate and soil, directed by two or three of her progressive sons —all this prosperity is not unnatural or superficial. Messrs. D. E. Converse, J. H. Montgomery, Joseph Walker and John B. Clcvland are proba bly the leading names which should he honored iu this connection. I may speak of them individually hereafter. My last letter spoke of “Glendale” as an ante-war cotton mill, “and as things now appear it was as a speck on the sky.” “Glendale null" was the first step made iu this manufacturing development. From a very small plant, owned by D. E. Con verse Company, in 1878, it was refitted and modernized, and now carries 17,136 spindles, 518 looms, with a capital of *300,000. The President is D. E. Converse and A. H. Levichcll is Secretary and Treas urer. The town of Glendale has a popu lation of 800. This settlement is 7 miles from this city. The next great enterprise is the three “Clifton” mills 7 miles north from this city. Capital *1,000,000, with •2,640 looms and 86,000 spindles. This town has a population of 2,640 and was established iu 1880. D. E. Converse is President and A. 11. Levichell is Secretary and Treasurer. The third in the series is the three “Paccolets”, 11 miles southeast of this city, has a capital of *700,000. with 2,160 looms and 36,300 spindles. The town has a population of 2,500. J. H. Montgomery is President and Treasurer. The fourth enterprise is the two grand steam mills, in the centre of our city, known as the “Spartan Mills”, capital ft,000,000,1,100 broad and 1,360 narrow looms. It employs 1,100 hands. J. H. Montgomery is President and Treasurer. These mills have added to the population of the city about 4,500 souls. The opera tives are housed in new and substantial frame 4 and 5 room cottages, and the sec tion of our city known as “the Factory” presents a most striking appearance of thrift and progress. “Whitney”, 3 miles northwest of the city, is a very imposing plant. Its capital is $190,000, with 910 looms and 30,000 spindles. It employs 500 hands, all housed in the best manner. John B. Clevland is President and Treas urer. “Enorec”, 20 miles south, is liter ally a Charleston enterprise. Its capital is $400,000 with 672 broad and 148 narrow looms and 30,720 spindles. It employs 600 hands. G. S. Coffin is President and Treasurer. “Pelham”, on the line of Greenville and Spartanburg counties, man ufactures yarns, wraps, knitting yarns, twine and ladies' and children’s hosiery. It has 56 knitting machines, 10,000 spindles and employs 400 hands; capital $150,000. Arthur Barnwell is President and J. J. Westervelt is Treasurer. “Arkwright”, in the corporate limits of Spartanburg, is a lute addition, and a very promising plant, incorporated in 1896 with a capital of $200,000. It has 10,000 spindles and em ploys 225 hands. R. Z. Catz is President and Treasurer. “Arlington”, near the Greenville line, is a plant with 16 cards, 22 looms, 2,500 spindles and employs 50 bands. “Fairmont”, 13 miles south, is oue of the rejuvinated “spinning mills” with 120 looms. It employs 100 bands and has a capital of $50,000. W. J. Harris is Presi dent and Treasurer. “Fingerville”, 13 miles north, is a spinning mill, 300 spindles, capital $30,000 and employs 100 hands. J B. Liles is President and Treasurer. “Tuccapaw”, to the west of this city 14 miles, was incorporated in 1894, with a capital of $300,000. It has 468 looms and 16,000 spindles and employs 200 hands. J. F. Clevland is President and T. E. Moore is Treasurer. I hope Mr. Editor I have not trespassed too long on your space and patience. This may not be interesting reading to everyone, and I would not dare inflict you with it but with the hope of ultimate good. Why can't dear old Prince George's take on some of this manufacturing enterprise I know there are many water powers that could be utilized. I greatly regret to notice the loss your “Agricultural Society” has sustained; but am sure it will soon he made good. In my next, with your favor, I will give some points, which I hope will be of in terest, regarding our educational and re ligious surroundings, from the standpoint of the city proper. A. J. Gwynn. OIK WASHINGTON LETTER. Washington, D. C., November 21st. Mu. Ejitok:—Nobody need he misled by the ba<king and tilling of the Peace Commissioners and the weekly crisis, on paper, always accompanied by an alleged ultimatum sent by this government. There has been but one question to he settled since this government demanded the Phil ippines. The price we are to pay for them. That question is still unsettled. Why, some of the Spanish bondholders could doubtless tell. When it is settled we will have the treaty of peace and not before. That Mr. McKinley could quickly settle this business by sending an ultima tum is unquestioned; also that he ought to do it, but it is humiliating, in the ex treme, to have men close to the adminis tration announcing every week that one has been sent, when a day or two after wards it becomes apparent to all the world that it has not. It is the easiest thing in the world to get people accustomed to and indifferent to large public expenditures. Only a few years ago the appropriation of a billion dollars by a republican Congress aroused the public opinion of the country, and elected a democratic President and Con gress. Since then, about every Congress has been a billion-dollar Congress, and the present Congress, which has already appropiiatcd almost a billion dolhyrs, will, by (he end of the coming -hurt sCS-hm, have reached the two billion mark, ll i -1 true that a considerable portion of this money is chargeable to the war. hut ont side of the war the public expenditures ■ are entirely too extravagant, and might be largely curtailed without lessening the efficiency of the government. Mr. McKinley has shown his adroitness as a politician by deciding not to recoin- , mend any legislation at the coming session of Congress for Porto Rico or the Philip pines. and to keep the islands under mili tary rule for awhile. He knows that the question of legislation for the islands will he a troublesome one and prefers that it shall not be taken up until his party ha- a majority in both branches of Congress. .Assistant Secretary of M ar Mciklcjohn wishes to be the Hanna-McKinley candi date for the Senate from Nebraska, and his friends say that he thinks 1 c will he, the conditions being that be shall promise to support the administration in all things in the Senate, and that he shall secure a solid McKinley delegation from Nebraska to the Republican Convention in 1900. The same sort of pledge is being exacted as the price of administration support of all the other candidates for the Senate, in states where the legislatures to elect Sena tors are controlled hj- the republicans Mr. McKinley seems reasonably certain of a reuomination, but Boss Hanna will take no chances and will, if iu his power, clinch the thing long before the convention is held. It is tO r carry out this clinching pro grame that the Republican National Com mittee is to open headquarters in W ash ingtou, at once, and keep them open until after the Presidential election. It is also a part of this scheme to exhibit the strength of the administration machine to Czar Reed, as a warning. It is announced that the Canadian-Anicr ican Commission, now sitting iu A\ asliing toii, has made great progress, hut the an nouncers take good care to accompany tlie announcement with the'statemeut that the agreements reached by the Commission have been only upon minor matters, and that the important questions are still up in the air. It is further stated that none of the agreements reached are to he bind ing unless agreements are reached upon everything, which indicates that the “great progress" is largely imaginary. The republican United States District Attorney, for South Carolina, spent two entire days consulting with the adminis tration upon what should be done by the Attorney General, if anything, about the race troubles in that slate. The District Attorney was not enthusiastic over the probable success of the plan of trying to get indictments against white men for participating in riots from a Federal Grand Jury, which has been adopted by the ad ministration, but he will have to try it on, if the administration insists; he wishes to continue drawing his salary. Tolbert, the Assistant Postmaster, who was driven away from McCormick, has decided to re main iu Washington and try to catch a government job on the strength of his “martyrdom”. It has been definitely settled that Mr. McKinley will, in bis annual message to Congress, recommend that the regular army he increased to 100,000, and that he will indorse the recommendation of Sec retary Long that three battleships and twelve cruisers he built, and twenty thou sand men and two thousand five hundred boys be enlisted in the Navy. HONORS ALL HER SONS. The last legislature of Maryland did a noble act when it set apart from the state treasury the sum of $12,500 for the erec tion on the battlefield of Autietam of a monument which shall do honor to all the soldiers from this state who participated in that contest. This appropriation, though passed by a Republican legislature and approved by a Republican governor, was not for a monument to the Union soldiers alone, but for the Confederates as well. The act provided that on the commission entrusted with the details of the work should be three citizens of this state who served in the Southern army. These men, with those appointed from the Union side, have now selected the site and are ready to make a study of plans and designs for the shaft. Maryland in this work proves that on her soil and among her people the issues of the Civil War have been forgotten, that sectionalism has been laid aside. She puts the stamp of her disapproval upon any effort to revive those issues, to open a new those wounds or to stir up hatred among those who have now been friends for many a year. In this one monument at Antic tam, to the heroes of both the Northern and the Southern armies, the state shows her love for both, her appreciation of their heroism, her determination that their gallant deeds shall not he forgotten.— Uni timore Ametican.

Wc arc greatly pleased to note that several of our brothers of the press agree with our opinion that Hon. John S. Wirt ! will make an available and desirable can didate for Governor: In the last issue of the Prince George's EsqriitKK, Brother Fred. Sasseer suggests cither Hon. John S. Wirt or John Walter Smith as good gubernatorial timber for the Democratic party Suits next Maryland campaign. In view of the fact that Mr. Smith can he ill spared by the party which lias just placed him on guard at the Na tional Capital, it strikes us that Mr. Wirt would he the logical choice between those named by our friend, Mr. Sasseer. John S. Wirt's name is a synonym for party loyalty, and yet personal independence. Around him both regulars and independ ents would rally, and with these two ele ments of the party united in an earnest effort to redeem the State, it does not re quire a politician to predict the result.— Will's (>("■■'. F. Eugene Wathen in the “Maryland i?.piiWicciii" published of Annapolis says: “Among the names mentioned for the democratic, nomination for Governor is that of John S. Wirt, of Cecil county. The editor of the Rfpt hi lean has known John S. Wirt for many years, and, because of his knowledge of the man and his true worth tenders him the support of the lic pnblkan, which support it will give him genuine pleasure to supplement by perso nal effort. John S. Wirt is oue of the younger loaders of the democracy who has made for himself an enviable name in the polities of the State. He is a man ol tine mind, well educated and trained in public affairs. He has served in the House of Delegates and State Senate with dis tinction. His service in the last House of Delegates is too fre-h in the public mind in need more than the mention. Every democrat in the State remembers what a tower of strength he was to the party and hew confidently we looked to him to curt* and prevent radical republican legislation. During his terms in the Senate and House of Delegates he was of great aid and assis tance to the people of Southern Maryland and, on numerous occasions, rendered them services which entitle him to their gratitude and support. He is specially deserving of the support of the people of Auuc Arundel for the services he gave •.hem, so willingly and so ably, in the last House of Delegates in the election con tests. No man in the State did more to uphold and maintain the will of the peo ple of Anne Arundel as expressed at the ballot box than did John S. Wirt. His presentation of the case on the floor of the House was such that when he had finished even the republicans had to admit that there was nothing left for them to stand upon and the House voted unaui mously to scat the democratic members o r legislature and the democratic Clerk oi Circuit Court. We trust that the people of Anne Arundel will remember his ser vices to them and that they will send to the State convention a delegation to ear nestly urge his nomination. If there were any reason against John S. Wirt's nomi nation we would not advise the democrats of the county to support, but there is none. He is a man who fully measures up to the Jeffersonian standard. He is honest, he is capable. If it were inexpedient to nominate him we would not advise his support, but it is not inexpedient. On the contrary, his nomination would come as close to uniting the party as that of any man in the State. He would command and receive the support of that class of democrats, who style themselves “inde pendents,” without whom we cannot carry the State next fall, and the full support of the regulars; for, though a man of in dependent thought and character, he has always beeu a consistent democrat, whom no cajolery, flattery, threats nor other thing could seduce from hit- loyally to his party.” GEG LOG I V AI. SU KM Y. The Maryland geological survey has just issued the second volume of its reports on the geology and physical features of the State. The volume is pt luted in large oc tavo form and contains 509 pages, with 48 plates and maps and 34 text figures. The character of the illustrations contained in the volume is of the highest eharaetei, in cluding handsome lithographic maps,helio types and double half tones. The colored heliotypes, showing the leading building and decorative stones of the State, repre sent a new method of illustration. For the first time the texture and color of stone have been accurately represented by this process. The volume comprises three parts. Part I is devoted to an administrative report by Prof. William Bullock Clark, the super intendent of the survey, and contains a summary of the operations of the survey' during the years 1896 and 1897. To this report is appended au account of addi tional legislation enacted by the last Gen eral Assembly, under which the bureau has since been operating. Part 2 contains a report on the building and decorative stones of Maryland by Prof. George P. Merrill and Dr. Edward B. Mathews. Professor Merrill is the chief of the department of geology of the United States National Museum, and is the recognized authority on American building stones. He has prepared a dis cussion of “The Physical, Chemical and Economic Properties of Building Stones.” Dr. Mathews, who is a professor at the Johns Hopkins University, has presented a detailed study of our various materials in an account of "The Character and Dis tribution of Maryland Building Stones, Together with a History of the Quarrying Industry." The maps show the large area of undeveloped material, which should in time attract the attention of investors. Part 3 of the volume contains a report on the cartography of Maryland by Mr. Henry Gannett and Dr. Edward B Ma thews. Mr. Gannett was for many years the chief of the division of topography of the United States geological survey, and has contributed largely to the last two census reports of the national government. Mr. Gannett is a geographer of great ex perience in cartographic matters. The report comprises a complete digest of topo- j graphic methods Dr Mathews' chapter on the maps and | map makers of Maryland will prove of j peculiar interest to students of Maryland | history. Tite study of these early maps of Maryland, outside their historical in- I terest, must reveal many interesting facts regarding the physiographic changes j which have taken place in historical times | along the Chesapeake and Atlantic coast lines. Heart Trouble Could Not Do any Work and Was Constantly Crowing Worse What Hood’s Sarsaparilla Did. “ I have Buffered with heart disease and trouble with my back for twenty years. I became so I could not do any work, and I could not be left alone. It was thought I could live but a short time. I spent many dollars for medicines but instead of im proving I grew worse, until one day I was reading in the newspaper about Hood’s Sarsaparilla and I determined to try it. I procured a bottle and began taking it and very soon felt a change. I took four bot tles and it did me so much good tha’ I still continued its use and do not now suffer with any heart trouble.
