THE Wicked Flee When No Man Pursusth.

The above quotation from scripture came
iorcibly to the minds of ALL when they
read in the 'Seatiaei two weeks ago de-
fence Of Mr.. David Rinehart, the Repub-
lean candidate for Senate. About one.
third Of column was devoted to his per-
iormances when a member of the Lesisla-
ture from Frederick county, in 1864. The
Legislature-nearly all Black Republi-
eans--voted themselves extra pay of 500
each, Mr.. Rinehart voting against it, and
refused, after the resolution had passed, 10
keep his portion. That was ccmmeuda-
ble, but Is that all of his record? In the
proceedings of the House of Delegates, at
the extra session of 1866, on pages 1886,
We find that resolution was introduced
protesting against the granting of suffrage
to the negroes of the District of Columbia,
and expressing the hope that Congress
and the President would "refrain from
enacting so odious a law" This was sew
eral years before the ratification Of the
18th amendment to the constitution, and
we find in the proceedings of the journal,
page 1856, Mr.. Rinehart ''moycd that
the resolution be laid upon the table. -
The motion prevailed, Mr. Rinehart voting
in the affirmative. Was it the same Mr..
Rinehart who is now the Republican can
didatc for the Senate?
We find, also, in looking over the
names, that Mr.. Angel voted against
the resolutions. Was il the Mr. John W.
Angel who is now candidate on the Re-
publican ticket for the House of Delegates {?
Yes, these arc the same men. They
were favorable to negro suffrage three or
four years before the right was conferred
upon the colored man by the constitution

"HOw is it Now"

[Extnets from the Sentinel June 22, 1873. ]
ave all know that orr party in that city
[Baltimore] is in a hopeless minority, and
the smaller it gets year by year the more
determined the fight Of the factions is
waged, and the more use both make Of
corrupt means to compass their ends. The
Custom House with its patronage is the
Mecca to which they look, regardless of
the means or appliances by which they
shall reach the goal"
"The spectacle presented to the people
on the occasion of the Republican prima-
ries in that city [Baltimorel last Monday
is enough to disgust the best men of all
parties"
The Democratic advocate., 1879-11-01

Mr. Gary ia his speech at Ellicott City,
in his effort to impress the people that he
was reformer, is represented to have said
in effect that he was favorable to turning
out the laborcrs in Baltimore city who re-
ceiyc $3.50 per day and hire negroes at
st,00. Since this statement has been
turned to his disadvantage, he has attempt.
cd to get out Of it, and in his anxiety has
gone to the other extreme. The fact is,
Mr.. Gary wants to be elected, aud he will
agree to cut down laborer's wages or raise
them, whichever will advance his election.

Public School. q Carroll il laea and 1879.

Extract from the report Of j II Christ,
president Of School Commissioners, Of Car
roll county, in 1896;
"fhe larger portion Of the school houses in
the county are unfit for any civilized man 10
teach in, and the furniture is in worse con-
diticn than even the houses themselves. In
these old buildings, with benches without
backs, and desks Of piae boards extending
around the sides, fifty or sixty children are
compelled to spend the day, crowded so
thickly that comfort is entirely out Of the
question. Perhaps one fourth Of our houses
might be made to answer the purposes for
which they were intended, but the rest are
mere apologies for school houses, and yet,
bad as they are, the most Of them are claimed
10 have been built by the citizens Of the re-
spective districts for their own uses, and have
never been decided to the county. Before we
can accomplish much, we will be compelled
TO build new houses in the majority OF the
school districts. - Some Of the
schools were kept open six months in the
year; others two, three aud four months. -
No. Of pupils attending schools, 3,09S; sala-
ries paid TO teachers, S3,0i7,s7; incidental
expenses, SS26.62.n
The above is an official statement Of the
condition of public schools in Carroll
county when the Democrats took charge,
for there could not have been much pro-
gress between the time of the report and
1867, when the Democrats succeeded to
Office.
Since our control began, the schools of
Carroll have advanced wonderfully We
have now l25 schools, and an attendance
Of G,410 pupils, more than double the
number in 1866 Schools then were open
two, four and six mouths, Now all are
open seven and half months, while con-
siderable number are open ten months.
The county had no school buildings then
Of its own, and those it had, were, accord
ing to Mr.. Christ, "unfit for any civilized
man to teach in" We have now 35 frame
school houses, sc brick, II stone aud II
log, making a total Of Ia About so of
these belong to the county. The past
year s6,003.1l have been spent for new
buildings, aud ssl7.75 for furniture. H.
stead Of the old desks of pine boards ex
Tending around the sides" aud "bcnches
without backs, We now have good and
substantial desks and seats, comfortable
for the children
This is but half the record, yet it shows
sufficient to indicate the interest the Dem
Oeratic party has inpublie education, and
what it has done toward advancing it in
Carroll county. Voters, if you approve
the Democratic system of public education,
vote the Democratic ticket.

The campaign Of 1879, as far as the
ADVOCATE Is concerned, is closed. Be-

Of victory. The State ticket viii be en-

the entire county ticket viii receive de-
eided endorsement from the people. We
