sAEEw CANDIDATE ron TREASURES.
Whilst net discrediting altogether
tks statement Of the Baltimore Daily
4Spaes, that our lsIIow-c itizen. jas. T.
n. Raley, Esq.. has been brought for
ward BY the opponents Of Mr.. Comp
tea M . candidate Cor the treasurer
ship Of the State, we think is doubtful
that Mr.. Raley would have consented
TO the use Of HE name in this connec-
ton without first making the fact
known to some at least Of his St.
Mary friends. Ifhe has made this
known here 10 any, we are not aware
Of it, and believe It has not been done.
But however this may be. We feel our
selves justified in stating. that the can
didacy Of Mr.. Raley. If he be 9 candi-
date, will be conducted in strict sub
ordination to well-known and long
established democratic usage, that is,
his name will be submitted to . caucus
Of democratic members Of the House
and Senate, and the result, whether
favorable to his hopes or not, Be 10y
ally adhered 70. Thus interpreting
Mr.. Raley's candidacy, if he be q can
didate, we bespeak for his claims fair
and unprejudiced consideration from
democratic members Ofthe Legislature,
and we shall make fuller reference
TO this matter when his candidacy
o s'lhave been auth. tative'y ' wed.
We subjoin, in meanwhile, what the
Times has TO say on the subject:
"To the inquiry, who have the OPP
ponents Of Mr.. Compton fixed upon as
q candidate for State treasures, the
answer was, Mr.. Raley, Of st. Mary's,
who will enter the campaign at once
with all his usual vim and energy.
He viii have the open and undiagnis-
ed support Of the governor, who before
laaEing Annapolis Friday announced
his willingness to aid in the election
of any good man that his friends in
Baltimore might decide upon. After
protraGted conference the choice has
been made, and Mr.. Raley is the man
selected to carry the governors ban
Fer IN the ensuing struggle. He is a
gentleman against whom the finger of
reproach has never been raised, and
Is in full accord with the policy Of the
governor.

Dun LEoIsLAToRs.-The Baltimore
Sunday American gives a sketch Of
al the members elect of our present
Legislature. The following is what
i said in reference to the St. Mary's
delegation:
Joseph Stone Allston was born at
Bluff Point. st. Mary's county, Md,
April %, 1913. and was educated at
. private school by the Rev. James
Stephenson, ID. d. After leaving
school he established store at Great
Mills for the sale Of general merchan-
disc, and his success was 90 catering
that . few years subsequently he
opened branch at st. Inigoes. Mr..
Allston il modest and retiring in dis
position, and has always deprecated
the efforts Of his friends to launch
him upon the turbulent waves Of pub
lie life. In 1879 Hawas rendered the
nomination for clerk Of the county BY
the Republican party. but declined it.
He was nominated last summer by the
same party, during his absence, for the
State Senate in spite of his previous
declarations that he was unwilling to
serve. Upon his return to the coun-
~ he was induced 10 accept, and in
November he was elected BY major
ity Of 400 votes. although the Repub-
lican majority in the gubernatorial
contest two years ago was only so
votes. Mr.. Allston Is man of high
character. pleasant address and sound
judgment, and the interests Of st.
Marys are not likely to suffer in his
hands.
LII. Ganter. one Of the members
elect from Sc. Mary's to the House OF
Delegates. i = native Of that comfy,
and 10 about sixty years Of age. He
is g. successful farmer and 4 very
worthy man. He has already served
his county as Judge of the Orphans
Court for term Of four years, but
has never really sought nor desired
office. He was nominated by the Re.
Pnblieans fer his present position and
elected in November. X.
John N. Graves, one Of the mem
bers-elect Of the House OF Delegates
from ST. Marys county, was born ia
that county in 1872. He il self
made man. having worked himself up
70 his present honorable position by
regular gvadations. He has always
taken lively interest in the local
politics Of his county, and has held
. number Of minor positions. such as
constable and justice Of the peace
IN 1879 he was elected to The legis-
lature BY the Republican party, and
reelected in November. 1881.

The Suva CFiiD Times of the 10th
june says -. The first two Ofthe labor
recruiting fleet have again started on
the second trip. Food seems plentiful
everywhere this year, and the ex-
perienced in that trade all argur diff
Guilty in filling up with immigrants as
the season goes on.
The same paper refers to the alleged
intention OF recurring to the old ar
rangement by which the San Francisco
boats called at FIJI, and says that there
seems good ground for the belief that it
has been very favorably considered, and
that the next contract will most prob
ably include that arrangement"
An unquIet spirit has lately been
abroad amongst the POlynesian laborers
engaged in and about Levuka. During
the moonlight nights of last week there
were several tumultuary gatherings in
the neighbOrhoOd of Vagadace, and on
Sunday afternoon the matter eliminated
in n grand free fight down about Wal
tOvu- In the course of the riot some of
the men got roughly handled.
The Film, Times says -" 1t has
been reported at this Office that a very
heavy hailstorm visited the island of
Gau on Tuesday last, May 80, about
pm. Our informant states the size of
the hailstOnes to have been as big as
your fist, and further reports that the
natives were much frightened at the
unprecedented phenomenOn-as well
they might have been"
II is stated that when the recruiting
schooner Winfred was on her last voyage
one of her boats was fired upon by the
natives at the Island of Ambryn. The
useal plan was adopted. The boat
touching at one point was invited to
coast along a little bit where there were
" plenty men" There was also there
good rocky shelter for an ambuscade.
Then from behind these rocks the ma
tive detachment assigned for the pur-
pose fired on the boat or boats. Happily
in this instance the recruiting agent OBJ
served the ruse in time and pulled !
rapidly off, so that though shots were
fired from the beach no one was hurt
