Yesterday and to-day CRITIC reporters
interviewed many of the departing Demo
cratic members on the subject of organiza-
tion of the Forty eighth Congress, with
special reference to the Sergeant.at-A Arms.
The contest for that position has been car
ried on in a good-natured, but earnest
manner. An Indiana member stated that
he was positive that Mr.. Leedom (Ohio) had
a majority of the Ohio delegation, and that
he secured his information from an Ohio
member A Kentucky member also gave
it as his opinion that Mr.. Leedom had not
only majority of the Ohio delegation, but
more than two-thirds of the Democratic
members who will be returned and added,
"That is the best recommendation Mr.. Lee
dom canIhave to the new members-the fact
that a large majority of those who know him
best will support him." 1t was generally
believed that Mr.. Thompson will not re-
main candidate if a majority of the Ohio
delegation announces for Mr.. Leedom. The
Eastern delegations will be split up, bus
Sergeant-at.Arms Hooker (Vt.), who has
gathered his conclusion from information
CLEANED from members from all the States,
is quoted as saying that his successor will
be Mr.. Leedom, beyond peradventure.

Shooting Affair in Priuce Georges
County.

Jail at Upper Marlboro for shooting George
Recarr, near the Agricultural College, in
Prince Georges County, on Saturday last.
IL appears that the two men had dispute
the previous day, and Recarr had said he
intended to kill TraInor the first time he
met him. On Saturday they met Trainor
had a shotgun and Recarr an axe. Recarr
started toward Trainor when the latter
warned him to come no nearer, but as he
still advanced with the axe in hand Trainor
shot him in the face, inficting terrible
wound, destroying the sight of both eyes.
Trainor at once surrendered himself, claim
ing that he had acted in self-defense. DR..
Eversfeld says the case will probably result
fatally.

A Sharp ElectiOneering Trick

A few days before the election circular
was issued from the office of the Republican
newspaper in Bel Air, addressed to the voters
of Hartford county, and headed printed for
the Hartford County Temperance Alliance"
The contents consisted chiefly of scurrilous
editorial taken from the columns of the Times,
directed entirely against Mr. Maynadier, the
Democratic candidate for States Attorney.
DR.. Benjamin Smith, a member of the Execu-
tive Committee of the Temperance Alliance,
Rev. W. t. Valiant, Rev. E. d. Finney, Mr..
Andrew Boyle, Mr.. VIM. E. Mccain and
other prominent members of the ALI
ance, promptly and Indignantly disavow-
ed, on the part of the Alliance, any RESPONSE
bility for the circular, which placed the ALI
ance in the position of taking part in the pol
itics of the county, position which the
leaders of the temperance movement in Har.
ford have sedulously avoided The circular
failed to have the effect intended, and Mr..
Maynadier was elected by about the same
majority as the other candidates on the
Democratic ticket.
All sincere friends of temperance denounce
this bare-faced effort to use the Temperance
Alliance to crafty personal or political ami
mostly. The officers of the Alliance owe it
to themselves to fix the responsibility for
issuing this circular where it belongs. Unless
promptly and explicitly dsavowed it can
not fail to have an injurious effect upon the
local option cause.
