We will never concede that our saloons, I'M

Dongola. Our gentlemanly saoonists, S. B.
Poor of the east side, and Simon Alden
of the west side, have recently renovated
their establishments throughout, setting
aside those miserable blinds formerly kept
standing in the door, leaving things within
exposed to the scrutiny Of the most fastid-
Gus. This is step in the right direction, so
far as saloons are concerned. Reader

We are not, but We are opposed to those

the most Incorporate men We haze.
We do not accuse them Of being dram
drinkers at ell; but incorporate in their
lectures, often abusing men who are in every
respect their superiors. We venture the
prediction, that the temperance cause, as
conducted ever since Old Trim was boy,
will not redeem the world from drunken.

We are not giving paper pufs for pay when
we say, that John L, Bishop, is the boss

Harker are not recognized by the Era, as

There is a manifest spice of commun-
ism among the laborers Of Mississippi
county. The Charleston Gazette has heard
of dire threats against farmers who have
introduced or contemplate introducing
reapers and binders in their wheat fields.
We will venture the prediction that not a
single one of the fellows who threaten to
burn oil reaping and binding machinery
that comes into the county, could be hired
to work in the harvest field at any price.
They are, all of them, idle, vicious loafers,
not from necessity; but choice.
The readers OF THE BULLETIN locals

OF the arrest and preliminary examination
Of Henry Sims, for setting fire to one Noah
Harris corn cribs. Before leaving Squire

Ia 1866, whilst tho Maryland Lesisla.
ture was in extra session, tho "Balli-
more Union Convention passed series
of resolutions, which werc presented to
that body, and they met with such a
hearty response from the Radicals they
were spread in full on tho Journal. Thir-
ty-nine voted to spread them on tho Jour.
nal and fourteen against il, among the
former being John W. Angel, Radical
candidate at present for the Legislature.
ln those days all Democrats were termed
by Radicals "disloyal citizens, "rebels, y
TRAITORS" Sc They we're not considered
as being entitled to vote, aud among those
holding that opinion was Mr.. Angel.
A few extracts from these resolutions
will suffice to show Mr.. Angels views
then, and what he thought about Demo
Gratis voting. Here they are, from pages
33l-2.3.

Rinehart and Angel.

AT the extra session Of the Maryland
Legislature, in 1866, the following resolu,
tion was introduced:
Resolced, That our Representatives be re.
quested. and our Senators instructed, to use
their efforts to prevent the extension of the
jurisdiction of the Freedmens Bureau to Ma
ryland; and that the Clerk Of this House send
each ofthem a copy of these resolutions.
Mr.. Rinehart, the Republican candidate
for the Senate, moved to lay the resolu-
tions on the table The motion was car
ried, Mr.. Rinehart, and Mr.. John W.
Angel, Republican candidate for the
House of Delegates, voting ia the afiirma-
tive.
We all remember how obnoxious and
meddlesome was this Frecdmens Bureau
how, upon the smallest whisper from a
eolored man, white men were dragged from
their homes to answer groundless charges;
how the smallest difficulty or dispute be-
tween whites aud blacks was magniied
into aels Of violence aud oppression, aud
the whites invariably censured, fined and
imprisoned, &c, &c. sIessrs. Rlnehagt
aud Angel would not protest against the
introduction Of the Bureau into Maryland
and were, to great extent, responsible for
all It's expressions and unlawful acts.

A PretOrian Guard.


Gen. Bcnet, Chief Of Ordnance in the
staff at Washington, has reported scheme
to create national militia 200, 900 strong,
and officer them from the graduates of
West Point. The practical effect Of it
will be to create an army Of 200 900 men,
subsidiary &c the regular army, to be armed,
organized, and paid by the national gov
ernment. This scheme is said to be put
forth as feeler, by Gen. Beuet, to test
the sentiment Of the country, under the
advice Of his superiDrs. What can be the
purpose of raising or Of desiring to raise
such an immense army, in addition to the
$4,000 We already have, if not to prepare
the way for an empire and TO sustain
Grant or some other ambitious military
man on the throne? Let the people be.

be on account Of some such scheme as
this, taken advantage Of by some military
dictator Oar army is too large already,
aud costs annually about 10000, 900.

More "Facts for the People

One fact is worth thousand arguments
The last levy of the Republicans in this
county for the year 1867, was 40 cents on
the 500, without the school tax, which
was not levied until 1869 Deduct from
the levy of the present year, go cents on
the 500, for all county purposcs) II cts.
for public schools, and it will be seen that
only 3S cents remain. The Democratic
levy for county purposes, in 1879, is there
fore 2 cents less than the Republican levy
for 1867. Tax payers Of Carroll county,
bear this fact in mind whenever the Re.
publicans talk to you of county expendi-
lures.

What the Sentinel formerly thOught Of the
Aims House.

From he "Scatiaei" May eI, 1875
at [the Aims Housed certainly did make
very neat appearance, with its good
roads, neatly whitewashed fences, sleek
stock, clean yards and fine buildings, and
looked more ike the model farm of some
rich land holder than the eounty's refuge
for its old and unfortunate citizens.
June lst, 1878, another article appeared
in the Sentinel on the Aims House, in
which the writer eulogised the manage
ment of the institution, the good and tidy
condition of the farm, and expressed the
hope that the Democratic party would
adopt Hayes civil service measures and
keep Mr., Tracy there "as long as he may
desire to stay"
Consistency is jewel, but the Sentinel
does not possess that virtue, The above
two extracts embraced the opinion Of that
journal little more than year ago, Of
the Aims House aud its management.
For five or six weeks past it has been pub
fishing the bills Of expense of that institu-
tion, but tic dates of the bills show that
every one Of them was contracted ana paid
for from two aud half to four years pre-
yious to its deliberate aud unsought en-
dorsement of the Aims House manage
ment. In the last issue Of the Sentinel it
is claimed that these bills were made pub
lie two years ago, aud Notwithstanding its
knowledge of them, it praised the farm,
the stock, the fencing, &c, aud wanted
Mr.. Tracy to remain as Steward as long
as he desired to stay. With full knowledge
Of these bills, and with the management
of the Aims House property generally, it
endorses the Steward and his management.
A year after it holds up these bills to the
public and cries out reckless extravagance
and asks that the Democratic party be
voted out Of power
