No Civil Rights Bill.

Let us not be wanting in our duty here
in Maryland and especially in Baltimore
county, but do our duty by sending full
Democratic delegation TO Congress from
this State. We want no men who are in
favor of the Civil Rights bill in Congress
from this State, and no one to represent
us who can be influenced by any consid-
crations to vote for it. We are aware
that the candidate for Congress in this
district processes to be opposed to it. But
can We trust these professions Let his
political course answer this question; we
unhesitatingly assert that he has never
failed to go toith his party, on every issue
that has come up, no matter how strongly
he may have proiessed himself opposed to
it before it was made party issue. His
course upon negro suffrage, which we re-
fered to last week is an exemplification of
this, and more instances might be cited il
necessary. He protested to be opposed to
Negro Suffrage, qualified or unqualified
his name was to handful in which this was
stated but it was made party issue his
party declared in favor Of it, and where
was Mr.. Ensor In favor of it, of course,
though he had professed to be opposed to
it. And so it will be with the Civil
Rights Bill Even now we have heard
from sources we believe to be reliable that
while he is protesting to be opposed to it
to try to get the votes of white men, per.
sons in his interest are visiting the Color

The Administration organs in all Of the
States which are to hold elections next
month are full of warnings and admoni-
tons. Even in Massachusetts, there is
considerable undisguised alarm. The Bos-
ton Journal says Some or two Congress
sional Districts may be lost by negligence,
and the general volume of Republican
majorities may be suffered to become SO
small as to prove virtual encouragement
to those who are now rejoicing over the
Democratic victories at tho West" The
Adccrtiser reviews the prospects of main
tanning Republican majority in the next
Congress, and concludes that "after the
elections that have taken place the num-
bers of the two parties are sure to be un.
comfortably close, and there is every
reason. for active exertion to save every
doubtful district. For the first time in
many years the Republicans are called
upon to fight, not for large majority, but
for majority. We hope the lesson will
not be lost"
