Thk Si.stinei. again requests property owners here to tend In their views on Ocean City's greatest needs— needa tbat It Is within the power of the City Commlssloneis to grant A lso,' whal Is Ocean City’s grestest need? These are matter* that concern Unpeople here, and the Sentiski. will Inglad to print the view* of the taxpayers, particularly those having big interaats hers and wbo. live here lint a tow months In tbe year. TALK OF ORKAT THING*. There are bint* of some great Improvements to be made in this city by tbe Pennsylvania Railroad Company early this year. Tbera has been such talk in other years, but now. It Is ssld, tbacondltloDs are about ripe lo pto eeed with the big things planned One orthe things hinted at Is the erection of a large depot In the vldnil Eighth street. Ocean City need* and deserve, eral thing* from the rmllmsd panlas, and one of tbe grestest of Is a handsome depot, with surroundings In keeping.

Nobody can tell whether t will deckle tbat the Walsh ai stitnUonal or not, and those lleve tbat It b> ought to encoi lest tbat la lo be made However, they do oot. They say Ilia Stuck upon tbe act Is Inspired by men who do not want lo l* misted from olflce, and who have beet m leas prominent lu politics

thn past few years.

Perhaps Ibis b. true. If ll eontselauU are acting wlthii rights. Tbe city commission I a good many of them out of omr* ••for the good of public service" without bringing apeefle cbaige* against aaya tbe 8UU Uasette. and It Is apparent tbat some of them dismissed far political reasons, regard leas of lbelt efficiency. Tbs average man is jealous of I rejwrtatlon, and be wouldn't be a m If be did not protest against Injury It by arbitrary action on the part of others possessing tbe power or break a man's character lu the pub-

lic mind, at will.

The action token by tbe men wbo are to put tbe Walab act to tbe test eooMItattonallty Is approved by tbe pram generally through the State, the contention being that tbe act bound to get Into tbe courts, and that tbe sooner Its coaatltutbiiiellty passed upon tbs better. Of cooree, those politicians who i tbe Walab act through the with tbe purpose of ad vaMtag (hair personal ambitions and Intanata, do not look with fa' upon attacks made upon it. But tbe Intoreato of tbe people are. Importance than tbelrs. MORE GAME FOR STATE •S*.«MOt*n e -*p,. BI , B » IB e k ,i K wooue ana t pl.nu..

t Is twenty years since Jacob. -, friendless boy. had left hnme disgrace, having offended and < franded his brother, Esau, by taking bl*. birthright. Since then be had tiecome the bead of a large family, bad prospered In busbies* and become very rich. He resolve, to return bis native land and home.
