The Maryland Press ON the Nominations.
We continue this week the comments of
the Maryland newspapers on the Democrat
lie nominations for State officers. They fail
to indicate any such disaffection as to war
rant belief that the independent movement
would have even the ghost of chance of
success:
From the CentrepiGe Observer
1.-THE Democrats everywhere in the State are wing TO
the support OF the ticket which is pronounced by
papers published in Mr. Hamiltons own town as San
admirable ONE The opposition which is sought
to be made against Mr. Carroll because he happens to
belong to the Catholic Church. will of course carry with

proposition that because s Catholic he ia peces

such people. Let of Queen Annes who have always
been true and faithful to the of Democracy and
right, grid up ons for the ght and we shall give
the support it deserves and majority tho county may

From The Port Tobacco INDEPENDENT
We See nothing in the character of the nominees or
the action u the Convention, that leads think that
the ticket will not receive the full Democratic vote If
they do, their election is beyond doubt. John Lee
Carroll, the candidate for Governor Is gentleman Of
fine abilities and, what is gilmore unsuled
character and we have no doubt will discharge the du
ties OF his office with henest endeayor to do right
How far he Will succeed time alone can determine
The platform, with the exception of the hard money
plank which is a good one composed OF most Gilt
tering generalites. 1t would suit a Republican Us well
AS q Democratic Convention with some slight verb
al alterations There u.s. perhaps owing to the excited
contest between Hamilton aud Carroll moro than the
usual talk OF an Independent movement. But we see
reason to suppose that it will end in any thing but
talk. While there is good deal of in the
Democratic party as yet we discern element of suf

which we consider personally very strong one;

nents to be man of unsullied character scrupulous
honesty OF strict integrity with talent ofa high order
thorough md nj urly
qualified to fill the Executive chair with ability grace
and honor The good old State Of Maryland may well
feel proud OF an Executive we'll fitted to represent
her people before the world and preserve the purity

From the Marlborough Gqxette
Our nominee Tor Governor, Hon. John Lee Carroll has
been in public life for several years-and no tuer man
can be found In the State. lie is one against whom the
tongue of political enemy friend has never dared
utter n word of suspicion. Ills administration will
prove him above the Vaccinations of mere politicians
We speak what we have an opportunity OF knowing,
that Mr.. Carroll has always taken II satesman-like
view Of all questions which he has been called to
vote in the Senate Of Maryland body which he has
30 ably served tor three sessions.
From the Cambridge Chronicle
