phi,ip Francis Thomas voted AGAINST
Constitutional Reform. vet The 'oro'oros
hold him mp as the Reformers can
diaate. He also voted against de"reas-
inc the number of the members Of the
Legislature, a measure calculated to save
the STATE much money, and yet they tell
the people that he is in favor of curtail-
ing every expense.
The locofoco party is always crying
Reform! Reform! yet when in power it
never reformed ANYTHING. All the Re-
forms that have been effected have been
accomplished by the wings.
Who gave the election of Governor to
the people? The Wings.
Who gave the election of State Sena-
tors to the people! The Wings.
Who limited the terms Of the Clerks
and Registers? The Wings.
Who have granted Biennial Sessions
of the Legislature! The Wings.
Who reduced the salaries Of the Gov
ernor and Secretary of State! The
Wings.
Who taxed Clerks, Registers and other
office holders, to aid in paying the debts
of the State? The Wings.
Who caused wealthy stockholders,
and holders of productive paper to be
taxed equally with the farmer. The
Wings.
Who have restored the faith and cred
it of the State! The Wings.
1t is all humbug about locofocos being
Reformers-they never reformed any
thing, and it is not likely they will.

TIE Louisville Journal of the Nth uIt,
renarking upon res luton of the llarrods-
burg 4aylor meeting, says:
"That portion Of the proceedings which
declares that Gen. Taylor is not connected
with either OF the grea! political parties of
the ,iay, is not concidelt with well known
facts. Gen. Taylor is a Wing, a devoted
Wing, and although he refuses parry nom
inalon for the Presidency, he is none the
less Wing Oh that account, There is no
doubt, however, that if elected to the Ples.
dency he will be the President of the coun.

Our Prospects.

The prospects of the Wing party
throughout Maryland never were more
flattering than now. The qualifications
of the two candidates for Governor, and
their claims upon the people have been
fully canvas<ed, and the consequence is
that hundreds Of Mr.. Thomas own party
have resolved that he is not worthy of
the support Of Marylanders and deter
mined to vote for Mr.. Goldsborough.
Every mail brings the welcome intelll-
gence that ''the work goes bravely on"
In every section of the state we expect
Mr.. G. to gain strength, and we await
the result of the election on "Wednesday
with confidence of success.

UOur paper has more than usual
quantity of political matter in it this
week, but we hope it may be read with
attention by the voters ofthe county.
Our readers among the sswomen folk"
will excuse US this time-it is the last
before the election, and after that we will
try to make "The Wing" please them
better. One Of them has furnished us
with some neat stanzas for the first page
to-day.
Wings of Cecil on Wednesday next
you have an important duty to perform.
Fail not to be true to your trust. Sup
port the character and credit of your
state by voting for Mr.. Goldsborough in
opposition to the Repudiator. Many
good citizens of the other party have re-
solved to forego party predictions and as
sist you in defeating that Repudiator who
tried to disgrace our State and all its citi-
zens. Be true then, Wings every man
of you, and stand by each other, and by
those Of the other party who have deter
mined to helpyou.
Lend your hands, also, to stay the ex-
listing unhallowed war, which has cost
the country one hundred millions of dollars,
and laid the bones of thousands upon thou
sands Of your fellow citizens to bleach
atar upon foreign land-lend your aid
to arrest it. Stand by the Wing Con-
gressman-every man. Hundreds of the
otEer party will support him, that his
influence may be given to check war
which is doing harm and only harm.
Stand by those men, Wings, and stand by
each other. Tariff men. support the tar
if candidate. Peace mem support the
peace candidate.
ErWe have heard it intimated that
few Wings are dissatisfied with certain Of
flee holders appointed by Governor Pratt,
and tina. one or two have signified half a
notion 10 vote for Thomas, 10 procure their
removal. Such course would be madness
1T would be getting tout Of the frying pan
into the fire." There is no reason why Mr.
Goldsborough should appoint the same men
Pratt did, and we can assure every Wing
that he will appoint no man who has in any,
wise misbehaved IN office.
BALTIMORE ClTY.-The Locofocos in
this county rely entirely, almost, on Bal
timore city to elect Mr.. Thomas. They
depend largely no doubt upon ''importa-
TONS" Mr.. Carroll received 1900 maj.
but when the Mayors election came
round few weeks afterwards, 600 of
those free and Independent voters had
"evaporated." They seem to calculate
that more Of that thing can be done this
year, but the wings are wide awake and
are determined that so large colony shall
not now be introduced amongst them.
Our Wing friends in the city assert
positively, that, although Thomas may
get a small majority, it cannot reach up
to the halfo that given to Mr.. arrol.
The large majority the locofocos here
talk of the city giving them, is merely
part oftheir "brag game''-there is no
foundation for any such calculations, ex-
cept the ''importing system" which will
this time fail of its former success.
