DEMOCRATIC MEETINGS. Democratic
meetings at the Court House, last Saturday
afternoon and night, were largely attended,
had been engaged, having failed to put in an
appearance. There was, however, plenty of
good, old-fashioned, hearty Democratic enthu-
siasm. The meeting in the afternoon was Or
ganized by calling the Democratic veteran,
Col. John Carroll Walsh, to the chair. Able
and eloquent addresses were made by ex.Gov.
John Lee Carroll and James A. Buchanan, of
Baltimore city. At night the Cleveland and
Hendricks Club, of Bel Air district, had charge
of the meeting. Col. Herman Stump, President
Of the club, presiding. Mr.. James A. G. Bond,
of Westminster, was the first speaker. He was
followed by DIR. Frank I. Shaw, our Democrat
ic candidate for Congress. Dr. Shaw made a
favorable impression upon the large audience
He is fluent, forcibe speaker, and had the
undivided attention of his hearers, from first to
last. His friends have been too modest in his
behalf. His speeches, here aud elsewhere, show
him to be man of ability, and from the high
estimation in which he is held in his own conn
ty of Carroll, he will, without doubt, make us
agood and useful representative in Congress.
The Democratic mass meeting at Havre de
Grace, Monday night, was regarded as one of
the largest and best political meetings ever held
in the county. 1t took place in the open. air,
opposite the Cleveland and Hendricks head
quarters, In Lawder's Hail. The stand was
handsomely decorated with flags and bunting,
and Illuminated by Chinese lanterns, and the
hall was also lighted up. Mr. Murray Vandiver,
President of the Cleveland club, under the aus
pieces of which the meeting was held, presided,
and two brass bands, lone from Baltmoreand
one from Port Deposit, filled theair with music,
In the intervals between the speeches. Ad-
dresses were made by DR.. Frank 7. Shaw, Gen.
Bradley T. johnson and F. G. Maxwell. Hon.
VIM. Walsh, of Cumberland, was also present,
and made d few remarks. After the meeting
the speakers and Others were handsomely en-
tertained at the residence of Mr.. Robert r.
Vandiver. Among those present at the meeting
were Col. John Carroll Walsh, ID. +. Shure,

A SwINDLER EJECTED.-"Five packages for
five dollars, and one of them containing gen
uine ten dollar note" was the cry of dapper
individual, on the fair grounds. Wednesday.
He had before him tray, in which we're num-
Der of small round packages about an inch and
a-half long. Taking two of them from the tray
he asked persons in the crowd to open them.
Each containeda small piece of candy, around
which was wrapped ten dollar note. After
convincing the crowd that the notes were gen.
uine, he folded up the packages and dropped
them into his tray again. He then took up two
packages, and placing them in his open hand
invited any one to select three others and add to
them. He next offered to sell the five packages
for SIS, at the same time pointing to one of
them, and saying that if the purchaser were not
satisfied, before opening any of them he would
give him back the IS for the particular package
pointed out. A number of greenhorns invested
five dollar notes. Each one believing that he
had secured package contai ming a $40 note,
declined the sharper's generous offer, and re.
tired. Upon opening the packages nothing
more valuable than piece of candy was found
in any of them. While in the midst of his racket
Constable G. W. Lee arrested him and elected
him from the grounds. ...-.. -....

Ohio and West Virginia.

The desperate political contest in Ohio on
Tuesday, ended with majority of about
5000 for the Republicans. The Democrats
elected 10 congressman, the Republicans 10,
and one district is in doubt. A few Democrats
were sanguine enough to expect that Ohio
would 60 Democratic, forgetting the fact that
it is strong Republican State, with ma.
jority of from 10000 to $4,000, whenever the
vote could be gotten out; and the additional
fact that Ohio has gone Republican in the
October elections in Presidential years for
the last twenty-eight years. Certainly the
Republicans have no grounds for Boosting
over the result. II with the desperate exer-
tions they have made to save one of their
strongholds they have only succeeded in get.
ting so small a majority, where will Blaine
bein November? The Prohibition vote was
undoubtedly cast for the Republicans on
Tuesday. At the Presidential election, un-
less st. John and Daniel are deceived, at least
10000 Prohibitionists will vote for them, and
this alone, even admitting that Butler will
get few Democratic votes in Ohio, will
make the State doubtful.
A change of one vote in hundred from
the Republican to the Democratic side would
have given the State to the Democrats.
The result is really substantial victory
for the Democrats. Itatfords no encourage
ment to the Republicans, but presages VIC
tory to the Democrats in November The
Republicans hoped TO carry Ohio by
majority large enough to indicate that they
were at least holding their own. The vote,
on the contrary, shows steady drift of
public sentiment in favor of the Democrats.
The tide can not be stayed but will increase
every day until the Presidential election.
1t may well be asked, if it took the person.
al magnetism" of Blaine and the oApenul-
ture of hundreds of thousands of dollars to
save sure Republican State from the Demo-
Gratis, what will be the result in the doubt
full States at the next election?
While the Republicans have carried Ohio
by the hardest work ever done in any politi.
cal campaign, the Democrats have carried
West Virginia by an increased majority,
amounting to 10000 or more, under rather
adverse circumstances. Their ticket was
handicapped by unpopular nominations and
the corrupting influences of the Republican
campaign in Ohio reached over into the ad.
joining Slate of West Virginia. The result
shows clearly that there are no doubtful
Southern States.
New York and Indiana are now certain
for the Democrats, and Cleveland and Hen
bricks will be elected.

magisieral jurisdiction, has produced single

1t Is said that Mr.. Lytle does not like to be

THE B. & o. RED Book FOR MARYLAND ia
ready for distribution, and in more than one
respect, is the most valuable of any of the edi-
tions hitherto based upon this State. As has
always been the rule, the forwarding of stamp
to G. X Lord Baltimore, is all that is necessa-
ry to secure copy, and in fact the only way, as
the Hed BOOK issues are all for mail circulation.
The present volume is replete with political
statistics and condensed data, not only as re-
CARDS the latest Presidential, State and Con-
gressional elections in this State, but relating
as well to elections since admission into the
Union. 1t would be difficult to imagine more
complete showing of past results in the State,
or more neatly put together and printed little
book.

Why Mrs. ParnelI Opposes Blaine.

Mrs. Parnell, the mother of Charles Stew
art Parnell, the Irish patriot, prevented the
New York State Woman's Suffrage Conven-
ton from endorsing Blaine A World cor
respondent afterwards asked her
"What decided you to support Cleveland w
"Bane," was the answer, sharp, short and
laconic. 1--WE don't want corruption in polit-
ical Office" she continued, and we do want
honest government Those are part of my rea-
sons for supporting Cleveland. Moreover, the
Democratic party has always been the party
which has been most friendly to the Irish and
which has done the most for them. Blaine is
fooling the Irish with promises of interference
or of measures which they think will lead to
trouble. That is political clap-trap. He will
do nothing. Garfield, four years ago, had vast
plans which pleased the Irish and made very
decided promises of help. Blaine was his first
lieutenant. Looking back, how could he have
done anything in those four years even had he
lived. Blaine will do no more nor could he if
he would. do not think the Irish vote for
Blaine is going to be large. The few Irishmen
who are going for him are Republicans and have
been for long time. Many of them have had
office from the Government. In my opinion
the Independent Republican vote will much
more than counterfeit 1t. ... .-.....
