Her Hard Lines.

A young girl is under arrest at Lima, Ohio,
charged with drowning herillegitimate child.
Associated Press diSpatch.
In other words, this Young girl is
in Jail on the terrible charge of muir
der. She has broken the law of her
country and the law Of God. Unless
she can command shreWd counsel and
make good use of the insanity plea,
the case will 60 hard with her.
Brief as is the press dispatch it tells
all that need be told of the young
girl. Only the sentence of the court
is wanting, and in good time that
will come along. Yet the recital of
this crime against the law and against
nature is glariDgly incomplete. There
was an accessory before the fact
Where is he ?-WhO is he? No word
about him. He is not lying in Jail
charged with anything. He may be
walking the streets of Lima, or of
some other town, holding his head as
high as the highest. He may be one
of the bright lights of the first social
circle in his community. If not al
ready married there is nothing in
this affair to keep him out of deSir-
able alliance. The probability is that
his part in the crime will not he re-
yeaIed. There is a kind of chiValry
among women who suffer as this
young girl has suffered. They make
it point of honor not to drag in the
authors of their misfOrtunps. Drag
them down they cannot, for society
has decreed that the man does not
sin when the woman falls.
Good men and good women will
look with horror on the young girls
drowning of her child. Thoughtful
men and thoughtful women will APP
preciate in some degree how strong
must have been a woman's sense of
shame to overcome a mothers love.
Without a friend, without a refuge,
no chance to get a foothold for her
self and her child, is it strange that
she had no courage to face the world
with the evidence of her guilt in her
arms? Who could have wondered

State of Trade.

New YORK, July 1S,-BrddStreet'S
Journal, in its commercial summary,
says: The general trade situation,
as reported by special kilograms to
BrddstreefS is characterized by the
customary dizziness observable at this
season of the year. The plethora Of
money reported from the leading
financial centerS is as heavy as ever,
and the late conference between the
United States Treasurer and Comp
troller of the Currency and the pres
ident Of the banks belonging to the
New York Clearing House, does not
lend confidence to the future, 50 far
as condition of the National finan-
cies is concerned, except in 50 far as
the growth of sentiment in favor of
repeating the act compelling the
coinage of silver promises early ac-
ton after the meeting of Congress.
The industrial situation is less sat
isfactory, and strikes and industrial
suspensions have increased. Mpr-
camille collections are less prompt.
There is slight gain in the move
ment of general merchandise report
ed from Chicago, and leading dealers
in various lines there look confident
ly forward to a good fall trade. AT
Boston general trade is very dull,
and the prospect for the coming au-
tumn is considered doubtful. There
is partial exception SO far as dry
goods are concerned. The lines of
samples out are said to be extensive
and already active, and some dealers
look ahead to a good trade in the au-
tumn.
Boston, MASS, July IS. The Id
rerttser in its weekly review of the
wool market says: The market has
been more active, but the tenor is a
little uneven, for while some houses
have been very free sellers others
have declined offers of the old prices.
The tone is, however, fairly strong.
The receipts are piling In upon deal
ers and commission men very heavy,
so that storage facilities are in great
demand, and the free sellers take the
position that, with such, an advance
cannot be readily established, and,
even if it were, a run Of a few dull
days would effectuaily curtail the de-
mandS Of the trade and create also a
decline i'll prices. They point to the
number of times that, within the
past two years, higher prices have
been hoped for and expected that the
bottom had been reached, but each
time something had occurred to show
that the bottom has not been touched.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1885-07-25

We notice in the e0OuId-6e.V -It-c00d
organ of the Democratic party in Gar
rett county an inquiry as to the mean
ing of the word "cold' following the
name of Handy Gipson in the list of
Jurors printed in this paper last week.
The said word "cold" was intended
for an abbreyiation of colored, and
should have been written col'd. AL
though the apostrophe was left out
by mistake the Democrat knew what
was meant and so did every reader
of the jury list. The attempt of the
Democrat to make Handy Gipson
believe that it or the party it repre-
sents is his friend or the friend of his
race, is rediculously absurd. 1t will
require a journal with more brains
than the Democrat to convince Han
dy Gipson that he would have been
permitted to sit on jury if the Dem
ocratic party could have prevented
it. OF course the Democrat and its
party fought to liberate the cold (beg
pardon) the cold race from the chains
of slavery. Why certainly the DEM
ocrdt and its party supported the civil
rights bill and aided the colored peo-
pie in obtaining their right of suffrage
and in eleYating them to the position
of citizens. Of course the Democrat
and its party has been fighting in
every session CT the Legislature of
Maryland for years to strike the word
"colored" from our statutes, and thus
make all citizens equal before the law,
Why bless your dear soul, reader,
it was not the Democratic party twas
it, that made the law requiring the
word "col'd" to be placed after the
name of every colored voter whose
name goes into the jury box. II ,ci2
be q cold day, indeed 1t a0iU, when the
Democrat makes Handy Gipson be-
lieve that he or his race owes the
Democratic party anything.
Give US something colder, Mr.. Dem
0crdt.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1885-07-25
A PARTY Of Cranks.

Mr.. st. John has put on his war
paint and proposes to give battle on
the prohibition issue in Ohio, where
he thinks his friends can draw off
enough votes to secure the defeat of
Foraker, the Republican candidate
for governor. He is said TO be in
spired not only by zeal for the cause
which he processes to espouse, but
also by hope of revenge upon his Re
publican critics, who charged him
withSelling ont in the last Presiden-
tial contest to the Democrats.
1t is also said that the campaign in
New York State, which already
promises to be picturesque, will be
made more so by the Prohibitionists,
who polled about $4,000 votes last
November.
81, John has a grievance and is de-
termlued to make the most of it, and
it is NOT unlikely that he will find a
goOdly humber of cranks to assist
him in wreaking his vengeance.
The term "crank" applies fifty to
st. John and his followers because
they subordinate the highest duty of
the citizen to the pursuit Of a theory
which at best has but slight founda.
ton. Under our government, and in
the presence of the two great parties
which differ on fundamental prin-
ciples Of constitutional construction,
the intelligent citizen must join one
or the other. Otherwise he fritters
away his influence. A man who IA
vOrs woman suffrage might just as
well subordinate all other questions
to his hobby as the man refuses to
vote the Republican or Democratic
ticket because he believed that the
suppression of the liquor traffic is the
one great question before the people.
Prohibition, whether wise or I'M
wise in theory, cannot be tested To-
cally or generally save by the consent
of either or both of the two great par
ties. Repubicanism and Democracy
divide The belief Of the masses of the
people, and it is folly to take neither
side as voter. The Republican party
has, as a rule, given encouragement
to the temperance people, when their
claims wore properly presented, and
the cause of Temperance can but suffer
d reverse when its advocates seek to
win without assistance. In the State
OF Georgia there is perhaps the most
earnest, sincere and honest temper
ance sentiment that can be found in
the country, ana yet, with perhaps
five sevenths Ofits population we'd
ded to temperance, st. John and
Daniel received the support Of but
corporal's guard Of the voters of Gpor-
gia. There is neither reason nor me-
cessity for u Prohibition party while
the right of local selr.goyernment is
exercised by the people Of every
country in the Union. The party is
party of cranks. BdHO. Herald.
