Democratic victories.

d.
The election ip Baltimore on the 25th
ult. for Mayor and City Council resulted
in the success Of the regularly nominal.
ed Democratic Conservative ticket by a
majority of 1888. Hon. Joshua Van.
SAINT was elected Mayor. The opposition
consisted Of I" Reform ticket" having
reference to Jones Falls, new City Hall,
&C., most of the candidates upon which
were Democrats, otherwise the majority
for the regular ticket would have been
several thousand greater.
DEMOCRATIC VIcToRY IN WEST
VIRoINIA.-0n Thursday last the Dem
ocrats swept the State, in the conven-
ton election. In fact, the Radicals
have probably carried only one of the
eleven senatorial districts in the State
aud will elect ouly eleven ofthe seventy
eight members of whom the Convention
is to be composed. The Legislature
next winter will bear nearly the same
complexion. In the palmiest days Of
the registration law and Democratic
disfranchisemcut, the Radicals were
unable to make as clean a sweep as the
unfettcrcd people of the State have now
made 10 favor of the Democracy.

RADICAL ECONOMY will the
editor of the Sentinel inform the tax
payers Of the county, how the expenses
of the county for 1865 exceeded those
Of 1864, by the enormous sum of FL:
teen thousand three hundred and ninety
four Dollars and ninety .seuca cents ?
The Records oftho Commissioners Office
show that the levy for 1865 increased
the rate of taxation Is cts. in the 500
over that of 1864.
1t will also be most gratifying to the
hard working men of the county to
know v hat disposition was made during
the year 1896 of the surplus of
Twelve thousand eight hundred aud
thirty-one Dollars aud thirteen cents
remaining on hand when Mr.. Benjamin
Skunk left the Commissioners Office ?
as he had paid and cancelled before he
left, every bond legally held against the
county.

A Card Extraordinary!

The attention OF unprejudiced readers in
Carroll county, of all parties, is respectfully
called to communication in this paper writ
ten by the undersigned, to correct some of the
misrepresentation and erroneous limitations
which appeared in last weeks Sentinel.

address, was written for the Sentinel in re-

Books! Books!

One Of the principal causes of en-
barrassment to the School Commits
sioners is found in the present system
of renting books. This required au out
lay Of some ten thousand dollars to pur.
chase Books for the Schools of the
County, aud the measure was earnestly
supported by Mr.. JOB Hi5Jerd one Of
The Radical Nominees for Me House of
Delegates, in connection with his radi
cal associates. We would inform the
Sentinel that the protested Note, Of
which it spoke last week, was a note
for Books, which its own friends, and espe.
cially one Of its own candidates, helped
to purchase. The Board Of which Col.
Longwell was President positively re.
fused to lay tax Or rental for Books,
thus avoiding tho outlay which Mr..
Hibberd and others afterwards sane.

Radical sIodesty.

Perhaps the most conspicuous Of the
virtues exhibited by the Radical Party
in the present Campaign, is modesty.
Il is really refreshing to see with what
modest mien, cur radical friends are
sueing for the suffrages Of their rebel
brethren. How they are now caressing
and ioudliug those whom they would
but recently have arrested and impris-
oned- How they are now inviting to
the polls with the most soothing per-
suasives, those whom, but few years
ago, they denied even the right to vote
at all. Democrats will not be deceived
by such thin gauzed inconsistency.

Martial Law Martial Law!

A Baltimore Custom House Official
who was imported into Carroll county
to make speech at the late Radical
Convention, said that "they did not
care for the Democratic victories in
Texas and Kentucky. That Gen. Grant
would give them little ku.klux law, a
little suspension Of the writ of Ha5eas
Corpus, and little martial law, aud
that would bring them all right" and
The Radical Conseation cheered tie
sentiment. What do you think Of that,
freemcn ofCarroll eeanty?
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1871-11-02

One after another Of tho rights form
erly exercised by the States is stricken
down by the Radicals. In their Chi
cago platform they declared that the
right to regulate suffrage belonged to
the States. Falsifying that platform
they have since passed law in Con
gress which virtually takes away this
right from the States. Federal Mar
shals take the place of Sherifis aud other
State officers, under the Force bill and
the Ku Klux bill, and United States
District Courts substitute the Courts Of
the States. Tho milita,y, under the
infamous Ku Klux bill, are now hunt
ing aud marrying the citizens of South
Carolina, instead Of arrests by civil
process as formerly. The work Of i'm
perialism and Capitalization goes on
apaee. Next winter, emboldened by
success, they will take another step
forward aud pass Charles Summers
School Bill, which declares there shall
be no distinctions Of race or color in
your schools. Poor men will then have
to educate their children among negroes,
or else not educate them at all, unles s
they can give them the mere rudiments
Of education at home. Will any Radi-
cal have the hardihood to deny this.
Look at West Point, Washington city
and Louisiana, where under Radical
rule the attempt at mixed schools has
already been made. Let every Demo.
cratic Conservative voter think Of these
things when he goes to deposit his
ballot on the 7th of November.

BeVaIsoI Spurious Tickets


The $4,000 bubble blown up to such
huge proportions for effec. upon the

sharp point Of truth vanishes into thin

The Sentinel intimates that several
Democratic physicians are casting "lOug

Register, and desire to be nominated
for these positions two years hence. If

wistfully upon the Clerkship. Is the

A Radical Contrast,


Gen. Grant, Artemus Ward or some
other distinguished writer has said that
'Comparisons is odions." Wepresent one
below:
The Democratic board Of Commissioners
for the year 1871, levied as follows;

The above statement of the respective
levies for tho years 1867 and 1871, taken
from the Records in the Commissioners
Office, is published not only as sweet
reminder to the modest Editor of the SEN
tinel, whose memory seems unwilling to
carry him back to the Radical corruption
which was swept from Office in the year of
our Lord 1s87-but also with view to in
yite the careful scrutiny of the honest men
and tax payers of the County who seek to
know the truth as guide to their political
actions. The above statement furnishes
fair specimen Of the Radical economy OF
which the Sentinel boasts, and is in exact
keeping with the statements generally
emanating from that source. Our readers
will not fail to contrast the salary Of
our worthy Radical friend Mr.. Shepherd
with that of his successor to the Presidency
Of the Board-ouly difference of $46s. As,
in one year. Nor will they fail to see that
Mr.. Valentine, for extra services as Clerk
for one year, received the neat sum of 500
whilst Mr.. Blizzard for extra services in
making out the lists Of names from which
the jury is drawn in foar years received but

Equality, opposed to Negro Juries,
opposed to mixing White and Negro

to making Slaves Of White Men, to
make Freemen of Negroes.

The Knownothing Party

Whose stock in trade consisted Of
persecution of foreign-boru citizens and
Catholics, was crushed out of existence
BY the Democratic party, aided by en-
lightened public opinion. The spirit
of the hydra headed monster, however,
still lives, and We hear its suaky his
sings from week to week in the columns
Of the Seatiaei, which labors, with a
zeal worthy of better cause to revive
feeling of sectarian bitterness at war
with every sentiment of charley.
