The Calvert Journal says that it no false
step is made by the Democrats in the Fifth Dis
trict in selecting candidate for Congress they
will probably be successful, but it warns its
readers that the Republicans will make des-
perate exertions to carry the District. The
Journal says in conclusion: al
II is expected that a large majority of the
colored votes will be cast for the Republican
candidate at the first election in this State
since the adoption Of the Fifteenth Amend
ment. Every proper effort, however, to pre-
vent this may accomplish good result. We
should not, close our eyes to the fact that we
will have new class of voters at the No
vember election, whose votes at the ballot
box will count for as much as our own. o o
The Democrats of the Fifth District can, il
they 50 desire, do much towards showing
up" to the colored voters the true character
Of Republicanism. If they will do 80 we shall
have no fears as to the result of the Novena-
Der election. ~

ably result in injury to the other. Let there
then be no strife between them. Let each
respect the rights of the other and peace and
harmony. will prevail.
The Governor of the State, as you are
aware, has assumed to himself the right, at
his will, to have arrested any citizen of the'
State, and to detain him at his pleasure, al
though the highest judicial officer of the State
has decided that the privilege Of the writ of
hGbeas corpus, secured by the Constitution of
the State, cannot be, and is not suspended.
Nevertheless. the Governor has refused ODE
dience to such writs when issued by the Chief
Justice. The guilt or innocence of the parties
held in arrest has nothing to do with this mat
ter. A great question of civil liberty is in
volved, and no free people or people fit to
be free will ever consent to yield it. Let the
parties seized and held in custody be turned
over to the civil authorities. If innocent let
them be discharged; if guilty of any viola
ton of law, let them be lawfully tried and
punished.
Fortunately, while the Chief Justice of the
State has declared himself powerless to have
the law practically enforced, there is full pro-
lection given to every citizen by the Constitu-
ton and laws of the United States, in such
cases, and we are grat6ed to inform you that
Judge Brooks, of the United States District
Court, has issued writs Of habeas corpus in
the name of the United States, ordering the
parties held 10 custody to be brought before
him, in order that the cause of their seizure
and detention may be enquired into and relief
be granted if they should be entitled to it.
Will the Governor have these writs obeyed?
We hope SO. But there are rumors abroad
that he will not. A few days at the utmost
will determine. This. however, we can safe
ly say, that if he refuses obedience to the
writs be will only plunge deeper into difficult
ties
The law Of the land, in every we'll regulat-
ed system of government, must be obeyed.-
He who contemns its commands may, for a
time, evade the consequences, but in the end
he will surely be held to strict account, wheth-
er he sits in high places or is found in the
humblest walks of life. None is so high as
to be above the law and none 80 low that it
cannot reach him.
Our earnest wish is, and we are sure that it
is the wish of the great mass of our people
laws of the land may prevail in every part of
the State.
We have just elected Legislature, large
majority of which is composed of men of char
acter and intelligence. We can now look for
ward with confident hope that the State gov
eminent hereafter entrusted to honest and
capable hands, will prove blessing and not
curse to our people, as it has been during
the past State administration.

.f Proclamation OF Neutrality.
The President has issued an important pro-
clamation, declaring the neutrality of the u
nited States in the European war. After re-
citing the provisions of the Neutrality Law
of 1918, and the treaties with France and
Prussia, the President says the statutes of the
United States and the law of nations alike
require that no person within the territory
and jurisdiction of the United States shall
take part, directly or Indirectly, in the said
war, but shall remain at peace with each Of
the said belligerents, and shall maintain a
strict and impartial neutrality; and that
whatever privileges shall be accorded to one
beligerent within the ports of the United
States shall be, In like manner, accorded to
the other. The proclamation concludes as
follows: ss'.''ss@ '.-.e. go = ~s'fsi--
"Aud ! hereby do warn all citizens Of the
United States, ana 81 persons residing or be-
ing within their territory OF jurisdiction, That
while the free and full expression of syTra-
thies, in public and private, is not restricted
by the laws of the United States, military
forces in aid of either belligerent cannot law
fully be originated OF organized within their
jurisdiction and that while all persons may
lawfully and without restriction by reason of
the aforesaid state of war, manufacture and

iRAcE, AMNESTY, OBLIVION. THAT
deiectable body of patriots known as the
House Reconstruction Committee. it
appears. have, after a long incubation,
hatohed out what they are pleased to
dignity with the title of general grace.
amnesty and oblivion" It is worthy of
the Committee, and can only inspire con-
tempt in the minds of true Southern
men, and pity for its cowardly and
malignant authors. Hunters after Office,
who are willing to accept it at any price.
may hail this invidious measure with
delight as tributary to their selfish de-
slres: but all right thinking men of the
South, who love their States and feel
proper sense OF honor toward their late
comrades IN arms, will scorn such grace
and spit upon such amnesty. The
honest men of the South want no
amnesty, no privileges, that aro not
equally accorded to the brave men
whom thoy put forward to fight their
battles.
AND we would ask: What is the reason,
what the policy, of these exceptions?
DO they not originate in spirit of
vlndictlveness, and sentiment directly
the opposite of "oblivion" Of tho past?
DO they not keep alive the animosities
OF the civil war, perpetuate estrange-
ment, and put reconciliation and har-
mony-the objects most to be desired
wholly out of tho question: They
certainly do. Then, why make them?
Aside from true policy and statesman
ship, is it not an invasion of O great
principle of free government to have
privileged class to rule the country and
another prescribed class who arc allowed
no voice IN its councils? It would be
bad enough to have any citizen, how
ever humble and insignificant, thus de-
prived of tue right of freeman; but
when we contemplate the fact that this
dlsfranchisement embraces, and was
specially intended to embrace, the ablest
and best men of the South, men to
whom the people look for counsel and
protection Of their rights, and who havo.
as general rule, the greatest stake in
the country, the measure becomes both
insane and iniquitous. There can be no
real cordial reunion while such n spirit
lasts at the North, and is allowed to con-
troll the actions of the, Government. It
both insults the South and provokes ill.,
will in return. It makes enemies. and
not friends to the Government, out of
the prescribed citizens; for no man con
love government that hates and perse-
cutes him. 1t dries up the fountains Of
brotherly affection, and in the eyes of
all the world will put the North in the
light of fomenter of discord and the
promoter of disunion We hope no
friend of the South in Congress will
give his support to any such measure.
