vert, who inherited the idea from his father,
the first Lord Baltimore While tho charter
did not prescribe religious federation, it con-
ferrod such ample powers on tho proprietor
that no WIS able to carry out allberal policy in
the government of his colony. As long as
st. Marys was the seat of the provincial
government there was no prescription on
account Of religious belief, although tho
governors and members OF tho council were
Catholics. A number of Puritans, who wero
driven from Virginia on account of their
religious faith, found q safe asylum in Mary
land, but when the Cromwell revolution put
them temporarily in tho ascondancy they
did not show a very kind spirit toward the
Catholics.
The provincial assembly in 1910 passed. "An
act concerning religion" in which 1t is pro-
vided that no person within the province
protesting to believe in Jesus Christi should
be molested in any way on account of his
religion or in the free exercise thereof When
it is remembered that this was one hum
bred and thrty.oight years before Thomas
Jefferson procured the passage OF an act
of religious liberation in Virginia, we can
form some idea Of how far George Calvort
and his son Cociius Calvert were in advance
of their age in liberal thought. The same
act from which we havo quoted, however,
made the blaspheming of God, or the denying
of the divinity of tho Saviour, or the Holy
Trinity, or the unity of tho Godhead felony
punishable with death and confscation OF
goods.
The Maryland Catholic pilgrims" made
some impression upon tho polity Of the state,
but tho forces which finally controlled its
legislation and nodded its religious and
political thought came from another direc-
ton. Tho Scotch-Irish immigrants who set
tied on the Eastern Shore and in the northern
and western counties in the course of time
became the ruling element; tho seat of gov
eminent was transferred to Annapolis in
1854; tho scepter departed from st. Mary's,
and gradually tho town itself disappeared
from tho earth.

The Caucus and Mr.. Randall.

The widely-advortised democratic caucus
must inevitably be voted grand failure by
the whole country. People of all shades of
political opinion had looked forward to it
with keen interest, and, no matter what the
nature of their expectations were, its lame
and impotent conclusion will prove q wet
blanket of disappointment to all classes.
Ardent FREQ traders who had looked forward
to tho pleasing spectacle of seeing the
obstreperous protectionists limping forth from
the caucus with the brand of Henry Wat
tcrson's hot poker still smoking on their
excoriated persons must bitterly feel that they
have been grossly deceived. Democrats who
yearn for the long denied solace of fat federal
offices, and consequ emily believe in the
necessity of harmonious union until the
control Of the government has been secured,
can take no comfort in the surety that the
conflict evaded by the caucus is rendered q
certainty on the floor of the house; and the
democrats who are in favor Of capturing the
offices first and wrestling with distracting
questions of principles afterward are unques-
tionably the larger proportion of the party.
Mr.. Randall however, has no reason to be
dissatisfied. Ho is certainly master of the
situation. At his back no has following
large enough to beat any tariff bill pro-
posed, whether it BIO horizontal, perpendicu'
lar, or diagonal. And he has notified his
opponents that he is opposed to the present
agitation of the tariff question, He has the
serene satisfaction Of knowing that his con
stituents loyalty share his sentiments and
indorsc his course Furthermore, despite al
the gasconading talk of reading him Out
of, his party, he has now the profound
satisfaction of knowing that he ha!
been conceded the right of taking any course
on the tariff question he may please without
having his partisan loyalty questioned. The
effect Of the caucus upon his fortunes as al
aspirant to the presidential nomination mus
be of tho most decisive character. Every
passing day renders it more certain tina
Pennsylvania will back his pretensiou
solidly, and now that he has emerged from
the caucus the possessor of the only sub
stantal advantages conferred by it, tho pro
lection sentiment of his party can hardly fai
to crystaIize around his name.

Over-sensltive officials.

Something in the atmosphere of Washing
ton or in tho peculiar conditions of gov
eminent by commission appears TO make the
public officials who work under it extremely
sensitive. 1t is difficult to understand why
an official should assume that personal
attack is being made upon him the instant
any ono dares to criticise his official
methods of doing business. There arc
men, possibly not greater than
the commissioners of the District of
Columbia, but who have achieved a somewhat
more distinguished position in tho nation,
whose acts as public men arc subjected TO
daily criticism. They do not, therefore,
jump madly to the conclusion that their
character as individuals is assaulted. Nor
should tho commissioners so conclude. 1t is
certainly part of the legitimate business of
a newspaper with any degree of independ-
epce to express its honest opinions about the
public acts Of men in authority. Tho news
paper has right to mako its argument
in favor of what 1t considers the wise and
proper course for public officials to pursue.
By such argument the thought of the people
is aroused upon Tho subject and the. official
who docs not assume to be inialliblo or to
know more than all the people is likoly to
get valuable assistance and avoid tho error
of nntagonizing, without knowing II, the
public for whose interests he may be work ing.
THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN has made no
personal attacks upon the commissioners. 1t
has simply demanded, Professionally and con-
tinuously, that the commissioners should
hold stated open meetings at which all new
business should be introduced and all final
action taken; that all records and papers
should be accessible, and that there should
be no official secrets. These things were
demanded to the end that the people might
know just what was being done, and object il
they were not satisfied. In that manner it
would be easy for tho commissioners to dis.
cover whether thoy were doing the best
thing or the worst. Let any commissioner
who docs not believe that the public senti-
ment of Washington is with The NATIONAL
REPUBLICAN in this demand ask tho FIRST ten
citizens whom no meets what they think
about it.

ARCHBISHOP GIBBONS has forwarded to
1HE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN slips Of his
pastoral letter, addressed to tho clergy and
Iaity of his diocese. Although the essential
facts contained in tho letter have been al.
ready given in these columns in another
form, tho full text of the archbishop's COM
municaton is presented for the reason that
it is an official expression of the highest
ecclesiastical authority in America upon an
event which is of profound interest to the
whole Catholic world 1t is a somewhat re-
markable circumstance that tho archbishop
makes no allusion whatever throughout the
whole letter to the Sovereign Pontiff, the
supreme head of the church. Considering
that the subject matter of this pastoral letter
is of the highest concern to the pope, it is
surprising that he is not mentioned.

Sepator Butler on the Educational Bill.
The speech of Senator Butler in opposition
to the Blair educational bill was considering
all the circumstances, eloquent and able.
two days since his conversion from an active
and earnest supporter of this measure-for
until stung by the speech Of Senator Sherman
it is we'll known that he earnestly advocated
tive can imagine what would have been
the mastery constitutional argument and
pathetic appeals based upon the poverty Of
after moro than two years of labor in that
direction.
The confidence with which he asserted
that his glorious state could deal with the
problem on her hands was, to say the least,
daring in face of the petition he presented
some months ago, signed by all the chief Off.
Gals of South Carolina, by all her judges
and many thousands of her best citizens
praying the general government to come tc
her rescue, because, after she had put forth
her utmost efforts, she was utterly unable to
deal with her own illiterates.
His state has appeared hero in the person Of
her present governor, who was her forme,
superintendent of public instruction, and BY
resolutions of official bodies, by petitions OF
her citizens in overwhelming numbers, ant
has repeated the assertion over and ovel
again, proving the declaration by abundan
statistics, that she must have help or She
could not At her children for safe discharge
of the duties of citizenship.
The senator sees the dawn Of batter day
1t cannot como from the census tables, which
show an increase Of Iliterary among tn
whites. unless a slight decrease of this danger
among the colored children gives him promis,
that they will eventually take care Of the
white brethren.
eau it DO that on mature reflection, as thi
debate has progressed, the senator fears tina
an enlightenment of the colored voters of hi
state has too close connection with tn
exercise on their part of their right to vote
and that he and his party would commi
political suicide by supporting this bill

MIR. SPRINGER'S PLAN.
Bill 20 be introduced Changing the
System OF compensatins Government
Officials.

Bill 20 be introduced Changing the
System OF Con,ponsatins Government
Oficials.
As result Of the Investigations Of the
expenses of United States marshals, deputy
marshas, district attorneys, commissioners,
and clerks the committee on expenditures in
the department Of justice intends making an
effort to chang go the present system of COM
pensating officials. At meeting of the
committee yesterday Messrs. Springer, Hemp
hill, Van Alstyne, Stevenson, and Bowen
were appointed a subcommittee to consider q
bill embodying the proposed changes. They
propose asking that the measure be incor-
poratcd in the sundry civil bill now being
prepared by the appropriations commit
too. As tho law now exists, the compen-
sation Of the officials is, in the main, in fees.
| 1t is proposed to give salaries to the marshal
| and two of his deputies in each district, one
of the latter to be clcrk, the other an office
deputy. The marshaPs salary is to be about
| $1,000 and that Of the deputies 81 200 each.
| To the remaining deputies it is proposed to
give fees. Under the present system mar
shsls can earn $4,000. The proposition con-
corning the fees of deputies, is that they
shall receive all the fees now provided by
| by law in criminal cases and one-half the foes
in civil cases, the remaining one-half to be
| deposited in the treasury. For district attOr-
neys it is proposed to grade salaries, paying
them from $1,000 to $1,000 according to the
business of the Office. At present they re-
ceive 5000 and are allowed fees by which
they receive $4,000. The salaries Of assistant
attorneys are to be the same as the law now
allows, $3, 0U0 or less, according to the official
business. Clerks, it is proposed, shall receive
salaries averaging about 81 500. By the fees
which they now receive tho compensation
can DO made to amount to $4,000. Commits
soners are to be paid, instead of SIS day, a
certain amount for each case tried before
them. Members of the committee think So
a case will be sufficient
1t is proposed that the travelling expenses Of
court officials, jurors witnesses, and prisoners
shall be tho actual amount paid out for trans.
portation. Marshals are to DO required to
take persons against whom warrants have
been sworn out to the nearest commissioner.
Members of the committee arc of the opin'
ion that by the changes proposed an appro-
priation of 100000 will be saved annually
for the first few years. and also the greater
part of fees in civil suits. They think thai
when the proposed system becomes efficient
as much as 100000 can be saved to thu
government annually.
