Borrowed Editorials.

The editor of the Annapolis Gazette, the
Republican organ of Anne Arundel county,
could not write complimentary notice of the
judicial nominees of its party. When he re-
ceived the ADVOCATE last week he took his
shears, cut out its article on the Democratic
ticket, substituted the names of Stockett,
Smith and Brewer for those of Miller, Hen
ming and Jones, and inserted it in his columns.
Here are the two articles side by side:

Malone is an imperialist, Stalwart
Republican, traitor to the Readjuster
party, and seeks to betray his country.
He is not satisfied with the 1000 offices
already in bis gilt, and the full control
of the Legislature and the executive
departments of the government he
wants control of the courts; he wants
the commissioner of sales in every
county to control the press, and all the
machinery for the government of the
schools, to extend his influence and his
power to every fireside. He wants to
control the railroads, and his influence
to be felt in every nook and corner and
ramification of society. Such despo-
tism as he would establish has never
been known hitherto in all the annals
of man.
And vet Mahone's scheme for Vir.
ginia is only sample of what Is to be
inaugurated in the 81 States of this
great and glorious UniOn-sO full of
hope and promise of the blessings of
liberty to the hundreds of millions who
in the coming years, will people its vast
plains and inhabit its great cities and
develop its untold wealth, for the good
of man and for the elevation of the
race. And such is the issue in this cleo
tion. Malone and his p1rat1cal crew
are mere adveturers, conspiring to de-
stroy the liberties of this people, to over
throw our beneficent form of govern
ment and to substitute a military des :
potism in its stead. Shall we stand su-
pinely by and let them do it?
Will the people suffer themselves to
be humbuggged by demagogues and
mere adventurers, who are following
Malone only for the loaves and fishes.
They cry Readjustment and tell the
people the schools are in danger, or the
tariff is to be repealed; all such things
are false issues to delude. The only real
issue is Malone and Imperialism. To
crush this monster, Republicans may
vote for Dawson, but the Democrats
will vote for the Hon. John E. Massey
and the Democratic nominees for Con-
gress in the several districts. The Re
publics of Greece and Rome were over
thrown by corruption. by treachery, by
conspiracy and usurpation; ours may
be no exception to the rule. Eternal
vigilance is the price of Liberty in ev-
cry age of the world Virginia Read

are never initiated or counterteited. This is es-
pecially true of family medicine, and 1t 1s
positive proof that the remedy insitatedis of the
highest value. AS soon as it had been tested
and proved by the whole world that Hop Bit
ters was the purest, best. and most valuable
family medicine ON earth, many limitations
sprung up and began to steal the notices in
which the press and people of the country had
expressed the merits of II. B., and in every
way trying to induce suffering invalids to
use their stuff instead. expecting to make
money on the credit and good name of 81. B.
Many others started nosteums put up in SINH
lar style to H. B., with variOusly devised
names in which the word "Hop'' or "Hops'
were used in way to induce people to believe
they were the same as Hop Bitters. All such
pretended remedies or cures, no matter what
their style or name is, and especially those
with the word Hop or Hops" In their name
or in any way connected with them or their
name, are limitations or counterfeits. Beware
of them. Touch none of them Use nothing
but genuine Hop Bitters, with a bunch or clus-
ter of green Hops on the white label. Trust
nothing else Druggists and dealers are warned
against dealing in limitations or cOunterfeits.

From the Washington Star.1
THE COMET INTERVIEWED.

We rise at early dawn to greet
The wanderer of the skies,
And gaze upon It's shaft of light
With awe and glad surprise.
A fairy crescent, too. appears,
The moon, with one bright star,
While dawn with rosy finger draws
The golden gates ajar.
Oh! tell us, champion traveller!
Bohemian, starry Tramp!
What regions have rejoiced to see
Thy radiant silver lamp?
What worlds are in the Milky Way?
That CLEAN in misty light?
Disclose thy orbits vending path.-
The secret Of thy flight!
Where is the star that guided once
The Wise Men of the East?
And do its rays still shine on all
Who seek the Prince of Peace?
Sweet influence of the Pleiades,
Is 1t a balm of tears?
And what grand harmonies ring out
In music of the spheres?
What telegram from Sirius,
Orion, and the Bear,
Is flashing in the radiant light
Upon the morning air?
Do spirits in their starry home
Respond to earthly love?
Or cast one lingering look below
From their bright realm above9
Comet! Thou could'st a tale unfold
That mortals may not hear,
Till in the mansions of the skies
They read their titles clear.
The Power that guides the waterfowl
Upon its airy fight,
Will lead thee, on thy mystic path.
Bright Meteor of the night!
And He who marks the sparrow's fall''
Will guard our devious way.
Till all the lesser lights are merged
In Heavens eternal day.

AN AUTUMN SCENE.


The Indian summers vail of blue ~
Lies on the mountains far away;
And, from the east, forever new,
Dawn ushers in the dreamy day.
The air is still, the rivulet CLEANS
In silver flashes through the vale
The silken mist above the streams
Fair path shines like glist'ning sail.
I see the squirrel skip and dart
Among the rainbow-tinted leaves,
The glossy chestnuts fire his heart
But, as for him, he never grieves.
Where red and russell orchards stand,
Bowling their burdens to the plain,
The lover takes his loved ones hand
And saunters through the orchard lane.
The clouds are soft that fieck the sky,
The dry leaves rustic past their feet:
But their unclouded reverie,
And blissful dreams on visions sweet,
Guido the splendor of the day,
Surpass the glory of the dawn;
The world itself must pass away
Ere such delights are dead and gonei
mark their measured step-and slow
The cottage gate, the parting kiss,
And think no summers vainly go
That end In such triumphant bliss!

Massey or Wise, which? That is the
question for Conservatives to answer
Will they vote to send Democrat to
the next Congress. who will be in accord
with the majority in at-body; or will
they allow an Administration Stalwart
to represent old Virginia in Congress
that is likely to be overwhelmingly op-
posed to the Administration that now
supports Wise. and will, in turn, receive
his support? Will it not be better for
Virginia to have Representatives in ac-
cord with the House that originates all
appropriation bills, than to have those
whose associations are with an Admin
istration that is being repudiated by the
best and most respectable Republicans
in the North. and universally repudia-
ted by the Democrats Remember,
that both the opposing candidates have
been Readjusters in State politics, and
there might be no choice between them,
with many of our people, if that were
a living issue. But it Is an obsolete
question now, and Massey and Wise are
arrayed against each other on the ques-
tiOn of national politics. The one is a
Democrat, and the other is Stalwart
Republican and appointee of the pres
ent disreputable Administration. The
election of Massey will be accepted
throughout the country as an anti-Ma-
hone victory, a triumph of the national
Democrats; while the election of the
other will be heralded all over the land
as the endorsement of the Boss system
in politics, as victory for Malone and
the Stalwarts. Can any Virginia DEM
ocrat wish such result; or will any
real Democrat or Conservative contrib
ute, directly or Indirectly, to bring it
about?
We are dealing with living issues
now-not with the Massey or Wise, of
the past. We no more endorse Massey's
old readJust doctrines than we do those
of Wise, who was later in taxing ground
and is now subservient tool of the
Boss. Old personal and political re.
cords are not in question, and do not
constitute the issue with which we have
to deal in this canvass. II is Massey,
the Democrat; or Wise, the Stalwart,
wearing the livery of Arthur and Ma
hone. that we accept or reject. Let
Democrats keep to that point, forgetting
all else; for it is the only vital one in-
volved involved in the present contest.
