the control Of the machinery OF the or

and that those who have pretended to
shape its policy and direct its force, in
the past decade shall step to the rear.
When leaders fail they should give place
to Others: when the majority decides ii
shall be so, they have no choice in the

feel no great relmctanCe to deny his pro

ON the last day of its session. the
Democratic Legislature Of 1880 voted
two hundred dollars each 10 ten news
paper correspondents who had attended
its sessions For what services rendered
the State were these 50 GOO iilehCd from
the pockets of the tax payers? Fer no
service that any reasonable man can en-
plain The act looks more like 4 hrihc
offered these correspondents to silence
criticism upon the doingS and misdoings

The policy of the managers Of the
Cecil Democracy was very apparent in
the very unccremonious style in which
they dropped Mr. Rccs from the Com
