Gov. Hamilton in his late message to
the legislature of his State, Maryland,
treats all subjects that are likely to come
before it with great frankness, and crit
ically reviews its past action. The Gov
ernor exhibits his characteristic blunt
ness by pronouncing censure upon polit-
ical friend as well as foe. 1t would be
we'll for the mass OF the people if all
executive officers, national, state and
municipal were to speak out plainly and
den5unce the corrupt practices OF their
respective party, Official parasites are
loud in their denunciation of the Gov
ernor's policy, but regardless OF their
olamor he vehemently urges the neces-
sity of pruning the political tree. No
party is justi6able in multiplying Offices
at the peoples expense to perpetuate
itself in power; if it cannot retain power
through its intelligent and virtuous adj
ministration of public trust, let it so out
and perish. -...t ....,t ...-
