SAN Francisco, May 2-The
death of Lottie Hunsinger still ex
cites attention Further investiga-
zion goes to show that death was the
result of her own carelcssness in
taking an overdose of neuralgia
pills. The fact of the young girl
having been in Cooks rooms when
death occurred has no significance.
The dead girls character was unim-
peachable. and the post mortem
placed that beyond all doubt.

A Platform for GOV. Hamilton.

Democratic Erchangs.
Now that GOV. Hamilton and his friends count
with certainly upon his denomination, IL Is well
to settle upon some platform which fairly repre-
sents his advanced reformed ideas. No doubt the
following comes very close to representing his
sentiments:
I. The Democratic party shall have no other
boss bu, me Boss Hamilton. for | ain jealous
Ross, appointing my friends directors OF the Mary
land Penitentiary and visiting my enemies with
continental-too numerous TO mention.
.. Il shall be felony without benefit Of the clergy
10 ailude 90 the potato bug movement Of ls'j. or
20 say that WIN. +. Hamilton comprised the de-
feat Of John Lee Carroll.
g. The large maioriics Of 1879 were not intend
cd as an endorsement Of the Democratic party,
they endorsed nobody but VIM. 7. Hamilton. and
their equitable construction goes 10 the extent Of
binding the legislative and judicial departments
Of the State government 10 abide in all things TO
the decision Of the Governor.
I. The people must not elect any more lcgisla-
tnrc. like those Of iss0 and lss2. II l. unpaEli
anentary to elect man Governor AMI then send
him a Legislature he cannot bulldOzc.
). The Legislature must be sworn upon the
Governor. message. The election Of 1879 repeal
cd the Constitution Of 1867, and WIN. /. namil
ton is now the Constitution and the laws.
6. Little people mus; not oppose the will Of the
Governor, opposition makes him furious. for aon-
iaRi seap.r tibcri.
:. The Governor reserves the right 10 10 the
profanc swearing for the State Government. The
election Of 1879 was a signal endorsement TO use
the words Of Bob Acres Of his ''odd kind Of new
way Of swearing.
5. One must beat two in the Board Of Public
Works. The ma,hematicians may kick, but they
were subsidized by the bosses when they made the
multiplication table. The o. l.. u. arithmetic will
soon be out. In that twice two makes one.
II the Baltimore convention Of the 18th Of sep
TENDER should adopt this platform the GovernOr
10 the only man in Maryland who can stand upon
it. and he ought to be nominated by reclamation.

your room, or out into the woods by yourself or
with some lady companion, and dance as vgoT-
ousiy as you like until you are tolerably tired,
and you will not offend the Lord, nor injure your
morals In the least; and, besides, you will i'm

nations all over the world. The savage Indians,

wild forest, dancing aud bowling In the red glare
Of their burning logs. they make night hideous
with their demonstrations Of joy. But the modern
lance Of civilization Is not an innocent pastme.
for Il impairs health, cOrrupts the morals, cult
yates vanity and pride. anl Is consequently n
