Political Notes.

Hon. John Kelly expresses himself as con-
fident of the election of the entire New York
democratic State ticket by an overwhelming
majority.
The general committee of the COMMITTEE
of One Hundred" of Philadelphia has unani-
mously Endorsed Mr.. S. Page Davis, the dem
ocratic nominee, for re election as controller
of the CITY, The endorsement means victory.
The publisher of Truth, in which journal
the Morey- Garfield Chinese letter first APP
peared, was a delegate to the recent New York
Republican State Convention. The letter
may have been forgery, but Republican
actions begin to point in the other direction.
There was a vast amount of fraud in the Gar
field canvass.
The colored organization in New York
known as the Independents held large meet
ing Monday night and resolved ''that we, with
our firm conviction, do denounce the republi-
can party and sever our connection with 1t,
and that we lend our support where it will be
fairly recognized 1t is understood the in
dependents will vote with the Democrats at
the approaching election.
The Free-Trade Conference at St. Louis
concluded its labors on Wednesday. There
was long debate between some of the MEM
bers who insisted upon absolute free trade,
and others who favored an attempt to elmi-
nate protection as the first step. The latter
opinion prevailed. An address to the people
of the country was adopted, declaring that
protection was a ruinous measure, and that
all possible means should be taken to abolish
it Immediately.

Hart B. Holton.

Hart B. Holton was once member of the
Maryland Senate from Howard county. He
was not elected, but was Fraudulent Sena-
tor, as Hayes was a Fraudulent President.
Before the people he was beaten by 139 votes
by DR.. Littleton Macln, a Democrat. 1t was
in 1864, when the Republicans controlled
everything by aid of federal bayonets. Hol-
ton went to Annapolis and charged that DR..
Maclin was Southern sympathizer, and asked
to be given Maclin's seat. The Senate did
so, and that was how he got into the Senate.
Holton is now member-elect to the House
of Representatives. His nomination was Sc
cured by fraud, and money secured his cleo
ton. That is the record of the leader of the
great party of reform and morality. He has
no record as statesman; he has given no
evidence of any knowledge of government
no evidence of any knowledge that governor
should be possessed Of He has only shown
that he knows how to GUST legally elected
Democrats, to manipulate primaries, and to
place money where it will do the most good.
The election of such man to the governor
ship would be sad commentary upon the
intelligence and character of Maryland voters.

The Republican State Executive Committee
met on Thursday to fill the vacancy caused by
the declinaton of R. Stockett Matthews.
When the committee met they found the de-
clination of DIR. Washington A Smith, the
nominee for comptroller, awaiting them also,
and from the poor reception of the nomina-
of Holton for Governor they probably wished
that he had declined, too, in order that re-
spectacle ticket might be putup. For Attor-
ney General the committee selected Frank
H. Stockett, of Annapolis, who was beaten
by Judge Miller for chief judge of this circuit
last year, and for comptroller Col. J. c. Null
likin, of Talbot county, was chosen. Any
further changes in the Republican State ticket
will be duly noted in the ADVOCATE,
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1883-10-06

r. Stockett Matthews, who was nominated
by the Republicans last week for Attorney
General, in opposition to Hon. Charles B.
Roberts, has declined. The reasons he as
signs are : first, bad health, and second, that
the salary is much less than he can make at
his practice. These are plausible, but may
not be the whole cause of his declining. Ger
tain defeat, by $4,000 majority, awaited him.
He knew that sixty prominent lawyers OF
the Baltimore bar had certified that neither
his ability as lawyer nor his character quail
fed him for the position of United States
Judge, and that that certificate would hold
good as against his fitness for Attorney-Gen-
eral. He offers his services to the party,
however, and to show who the man is the
Republicans nominated on their reform plat
form for Attorney General, and the kind of a
man who is to be one of the chief spokesman
of the party in the campaign, we publish a
short sketch of him, along with the sketches
of Holton and Smith.

Look at the Difference.

In Carroll county the rate of taxation fol
county purposes is 40 cents on the 500. Thi:
is the lowest rate of any county in the state
The rate here as compared with the rate ii
the counties under Republican rule, speak:
volumes for the conyinuance of Democrat.
control. Here are the figures &
In Democratic Carroll 40 Cents.
In Republican Frederick 65 cents.
In Republican Allegany 674 cents.
In Republican Somerset 86t cents.
In Republican Washington S8 cents.
In Republican Garrett SO cents.
In Republican Charles "a cents.
In Republican St. Mary's 101 cents.
Frederick is the lowest taxed of the Re-
publican counties, and the tax rate there is
sixteen cents higher than in Carroll, whilst ii
is ftty-teoo cents higher in St. Mary's, or more
than double what it is here. Do taxpayers
want a change from Democratic to Republi-
can rule?
