MaryIand's Good Credit


It may be as we'll, in the face of
some recent and adverse remarks
made in regard to the administra-
ton of the finances of Maryland by
home critics, who appear to think
more highly of immediate political
objects than they do of the character
of the Commonwealth for thrift, and
integrity and good management, to
quote a recent circular on this sub
iect issued by financial firm in this
city. Tennessee and Louisiana
financiers would do well to study
this paragraph. 1t ought to do them
good. The circular is that of John
A. Hambleton & Co., and says:
sit must be matter of pride to
every citizen of Maryland to know
that the credit and financial cOndi-
ton of our State is of the very high
est, and that its various loans are
looked upon as being most desirable
investments, and are sought after at
a very high premium. Thefinancial
history of Maryland should be an eX-
ample to our sister States that are
now suffering from impaired credit.
AT one time financial emharrass-
ment threatened to Overwhelm us,
and the bonds of the State sold at
very low figures; but by judiciOus
counsel and prudent management,
and, above all, by the people of the
State putting their own shoulders
to the wheel and submitting to be
taxed to an amount sufficient to
meet the States obligations, our
credit and honor was saved and the
financial standing of our State
steadily improved, until it is now
not eXcelled by any State in the
Union. OF course there were at that
time many complaints ana much
dissatisfaction because of a large and
burdensOme tax; but fortunately a
majority of the people were wise
enough to recognize the importance
of maintaining the credit and in
tegrity of the State, even by self
sacrifice. Observation-Disclosures of Mary
land was incurred by loans made to
railroads and canals, and to build
hospitals, asylums and other public
buildings. The largest loan, the
Maryland defense loan, was created
to pay debts, bOunties, etc., con-
tracted during the war. Some of
the railroads and canals have proved
to be Improbable investments to the
State, but of incalcuable benefit to
the people. The total Indebtedness
of the State is about $4,000, 900,
which is small in comparison with
its resources. The tax rate is lower
than any other State that has any
tax, except Connecticut Is cents,
Rhode Island Is cents and Tennes-
see 10 cents. The tax rate in Ten
nessee is not low because a large
amount is not needed, but because,
unfortunately, the people are not
willing to be taxed to pay their
debts"

THE Commercial Advertiser of
New York, q shrewd Republican
newspaper, makes this frank state
ment in regard to the election of
Cornell:
1t must be clear to the minds of
all men that if the Democrats had
been united Mr.. Cornell would
have been overwhelmingly defeat
ed. The Republican party would
have been demoralized and gone
down under the pressure of seventy
five thousand majority. Thousands
who voted for him on Tuesday
would have either voted for Robin
son or remained away from the
polls. The feeling against Mr. Cor
nell and the men who unwisely
| forced his nomination was intense
and bitter and widespread, as the
vote for Governor shows. PreSl-
dent Hayes and the members OF the
Cabinet could not have modified
| the anger of the offended Repu Dill
cans of the State. Nothing but the
fight made by Mr.. Kelley and tht
Juror demonstrated in his favor
which made Mr.. COrnell's election
appear as a foregone conclusion
calmed down the excited and ag
gravated Republicans. After th'
sober second thought they becam'
satisfied that Mr.. KeIley's bolt mus
lead. to Mr.. CornelPs election, ant
that their efforts would not defea
him. The entire action of he Sara
toga Convention was h.ainless ant
stupid.
And the Times the following:
The Democrats had two candi
dates for Governor, the Republican
one. The 'sbolting" Democrat
candidate received a vote of at leas
, s., 900 throughout the State, or %
600 more than the estimated major
ity of the regular Republican owe
the regular Democratic candidate
In other words, if the vote on Coy
ernor be held to be test of Reput
2 | lican and Democratic strength i
this State the Republican party hs
been shown to be in minority
| $4,000 votes.

tention is called to the act of 1879,

addressed to County Clerks, as wei
as Trustees, in order to guarC

GA FAITHFUL representative
should rather displease his constitu-
ents than consent to that which
would injure them. 1t is his duty
fully and freely to account to them,
but not to conceal his trne opinions
for fear of their displeasure, for his
enlighted conscience cannot be dis
regarded without injury to them
and his entire loss of usefulness. To
maintain this government of ours
such are some of the conditions, and
it is upon the self-protecting ele-
ments of society that we must rely.

he hauled wood to st. Louis, before
he dreamed of being President,
