The people of New York city are
engaged in the same work Of deliv-
GRANGE from the domination Of one
man and the rule of a particular set
that we are, and with equal if not
better prospects of success. 1t is not
alleged that the reign of John Kel-
ley is corrupt, or even eXtravagant.
No allegations of fraud or Mentality
are made, and no charge Of bribt-,
taking or matchmaking Of apprOprl-
atiOns is ever intimated. Yet Dem
Ocracy is up in arms, is i'll open re-
beilion and mutiny against the regu-
lar organization called the Tammany
General Committee, the master and
controlling spirit of which is Hon.
John Kelly, Il man of Gnblemiahed'
personal character. Why is this?
Because, AS the World, the leading
Democratic paper of the country,
says, .Tammany incarnates spirit
inconsistent with true Democracy :,
its rule il undemOcratic it is the
rule of one or two men, absolute,
arbitrary, and not always fair, and
it has nothing Democratic about it,.
To break up Tammany and defeat
its candidate the following Demo-
cratic organizations have made an
open coalition with the Republicans:
The New York County Democracy,
the City Democracy, the Irving
Hall Democracy and the Anti Tam
many Democracy. All these are in
open and avOWed antagonism to the
regularly recognized and thoroughly
organized Tammany party, the lead
ers of which are the leaders of the
Democratic party in that State. Ev-
cry influential organ approved the
coalition, not because Tammany, un-
der the mastery leadership of hon.
est John Kelley, is vile and corrupt.
but because the dictation of such an
exclusive organization is in opposi-
ton to the spirit and teaching of
true Democracy. How similar is the
Democratic situation here in Mary
land. Here we have reasons more
weIghty, reasons that involve the
question of honest government, rea-
sons that draw the line between
rogue's rule and the rule of consci-
entious statesmen why an end should
be put to the reign of Maryland's
disreputable Tammany. Our exclu-
sive and arbitrary combination has
not the redeenling characteristic of
political or moral honesty. 1t is IA
disgrace to the party, standing
libel upon Democracy, a shame to
the people who permit it to direct
affairs, and it is no less the duty of
every patriotic Marylander to vote
it down than it is the duty of the
Old Knickerbocker of New York to
rise in mutiny against John Kelley,
--Clmlb Old Democrat.

UtNDINE.

In common fairness, our Demo-
cratic contemporaries ought to cease
from their furious lashing of Jim
Anderson. He was Democratic
witEess against Secretary Sherman,
and 50 long as he clung to his original
story no Democrat awaked to con-
sciousness of his falsehOOds. In the
light which the Democratic organs
then threw upon him he was a
martyr to the truth, and was alto
gether beautiful and lovely. Now
that he has fecanted, he suddenly be-
comes IA monstrous liar, according to
the Democratic version. But if An
dersOn is now villainous lalsilier.
what becomes of his primary attitude
as "A hero who dared everything for
the sake of the truth ? Republicans
are entitled to discredit him at this
time because they discredited him in
the first place; but the Democrats
cannot 50 treat him. If the Potter
Committee ever chances to meet
again it will have most pleasurable

vital power it is wanting. Euthu-
siasm has died out, what is called

office holders and Office seekers, who

What II Believes In,

The Republican party believes in
free thought and free labor. 1t is the
champion of human rights, and has
done more for the substantial adj
vancement of liberty and civilization
than all other parties together. II
believes in the church and school
house as the best defenses of the Re
public. 1t is the party of right, jus
tice, and truth. To defeat SO grand
a power for good would be an act Of
national suicide.

Speech of President HAYES.


President Hayes speech, delivered
at the Cumberland Fair last week 4;
The President began by saying
that he was not unfamiliar with the
county of Allegany, the city of Cum
berland and this section Of country.
He knew that while many of their
citizens We're engaged in agriculture,
the largest interest was in coal, ana
it was to the lab0reFs in the field and
in the mine he proposed 10 address
himself. The main. burden OF the
remarks to be made on this occasion
however, would devOlVe on The See
rotary of the Treasury. He first eX
pressed congratulations On the
change in the weather that the
storm, BEGINNING at Florida and
sweeping from the Atlantic to the
Northwest, causing much utfering
and destruction, had lasoed away,
Now that the skies are bright and
the air b llmy, we may hope, he said,
that the pure and clear air Will carry
health to the fever stricken cOmmu-
mites in the South. He continued !:
GAS in the material world we have
storms which occasion so much dlS-
turbance and connection, so with
human affairs. When | first saw this
picturesque scenery we were IN the
midst of a terrible conflict, upon
which all men looked with the great
est apprehension, but fortunately
peace came with its resulting bless
ings, and we at this time can direct
our efforts for the benefit of the ma
ton, nation of freemen Applause
and if, unhappily, there should be
here and there some remnant OF for
mer bitterness. we should remember
that the waysof Providence are slow
but sure IN progress, and that AS II
nation we are better Off than we
were five years ago, and that the
wish is expressed everywhere that

be obeyed by all the inhabitants OF
