Hon. James A. Gary, Mr.. Holtop's brother
in-law, predicted, in a short speech at Eli
colt City last Saturday night, that Hart B.
Holton would be the next Governor Of Mary
land. Mr.. Gary is poor prophet. when
he was candidate for Governor in 1879, he
made similar prediction as TO himself, but
he was defeated by nearly $4,000 votes.
Holton will be defeated by an overwhelming

Only in Maryland did the Democracy falter
last year. In every other state they were
either victorious or made great gains. Shall
we again be laggards? Ohio leads and calls
upon other states to follow. New York, New
Jersey and Pennsylvania Democrats have
heard her voice and promise to join her in
November. Maryland must be to the front

The splendid record of the Democratic
party in Maryland and in Carroll county, and
the character and fitness of the Democratic
state and county nominees should insure
full and united vote in November. Every
voter must be out. Remember the contest
this year virtually settles the Presidency.
Every nominee of the party should receive
every Democratic vote.

During Democratic control for sixteen years
in Maryland there have been no defaulters
among the treasury officials. During Repub-
lican control of the Federal government de-
faulters have been nearly as numerous as
honest officials. Defalcation has even ex-
tended to army and navy officers.

don't like the word ''boom." AS now
used il illustrates the proclivity of the
American people to seize upon a word
previously used i'm very different sense
and use it for a purpose and with a mean

now used the word ''boom" suggests
something lacking the qualities of So

gests their opposltes.
If thus used the word is misused in con-
nection with real estate in Savannah.
Never in our history was there more
reasons for strengthening of real pro-
perty in this city. In the flush times pre-
ceding 1873 our prosperity was not so
well assured as now. There are more
people living in Savannah and making
wealth within her borders than ever be-
fore in her history. By making wealth, /
mean producing property; by the appli-
cation of skill to inert matter, transform

the ability of the city to support "A greater
number of stores in their respective lines

No better proof of these statements is
needed than the fact that neither resi-
dence or store for rent can be found on
the boards of any Of our renting agents.

Onr New HnfeI Project

Editor Morning NelrS : In connection
with the new hotel project now being con.
sidered, and in order to attract winter
travel i'm this direction and induce North
ern tourists to take up their winter quar-
tiers here, the city and environs should be
made as attractive as possible, the chief
of which should be pleasant walks and
drives. to compensate as much as posi-
BILE for the general narrowness of the
sidewalks, which, on account of en-
croaching stoops and piaZzas, is an I'M
fortunate feature of Savannah. The nu-
merouS squares make up for this defect i'm
a great measure and might, under skill
full hand, with little or no additional eX-
Dense, be turned into pleasure grounds by
discarding goats and substituting low
trimmed evergreen hedges of euonymus,
arbor VITAE or some kindred species in
place of the unsightly wooden rail-
ings now in use. This, with the
introduction of eYergreens, ornamental
and SNOWY towering trees in the squares,
would make Savannah a winter paradise.
Savannah might also lay Il beautiful
promenade, Overarched with trees extend
ing through its entire length, from east to
west. through the centre of South Broad
street. by filling and grading with some
hard material the low, slushy portions OF
it caused 10y the traffic of drays and wagons
through its Intersecting streets. This
avenue, either shelled or as a beautiful
grass walk, as now it partly is, would be
unsurpassed in beauty.

readily suggest themselves to any one pos
sessIng artistic taste. These improve
ments are earnestly recommended to the
public-spirited gentlemen that comprise
