Maryland Elections in 1885.

The next item of general interest in Mary.
land politics will be the appointment of a
State Treasurer to succeed Hon. Barnes
Compton, who will resign about March 4th,
having been elected TO the 10th Congress,
The Governor has this appointment, and
the officer will have the place until the Gen
eral Assembly meets next year and elects a
Treasurer for two years. Mr.. John s. Git
tings, OF Baltimore county, whose name
has been used for several years in con
nection with this office, has announced
his candidacy, and will receive the sup
port OF many men in the State promi.

tor German has said that all he wants in
politics now is to be returned TO the Senate
his Excellency, the present Governor, is said
10 be willing, though his candidacy has not
been annonnced and there are those who
believe that neither of the distinguished ex.
Governors and ex.Senators, Hamilton and
Whyte would frown down a movement
looking towards the senatorship. There is
no intimation, however, ut this writing, of
any capitalization of opposition 10 the re
election OF Senator German, and probably
he will go through in 1886 as easily as he
did in 1880. II is always less trouble To
elect Western Shore than an Eastern
Shore Senator. Somebody gets things fixed
by the time the Legislature meets. In 1880,
Mr.. German got the caucus nomination on
the LIST ballot; in 1874, Mr. Whyte had Il

DEATHS-

DIED, on January nth, 1886, WILLIE,
son of Martha and VIM. Bukoffsky, aged 5
years and months.
There Is no tiock, however, watched and
tended
But one dead lamb is there,
There is no fireside howsoee r defended
Bot has one vacant chair.
Let us be patient, these severe Affections
Not from the ground arise,
But ottentimes celestial boledctions
Assume this dark disguise.
He is not dead-the child of our affection
But gone unto that school
Where he no longer needs our poor protec-

And Christ himself doth rule.

PERSONAL DISTRACTION.

The political field in our county is assum-
ing lively aspect. From present appear.
ances the number of aspirants for public
honors will be larger than has ever been
previously presented to the public from
which TO select Our county is largely
Democratic and a nomination Is tantamount
TO an election. A word In time in this con-
nection may not be out of place.
Unfortunately heretofore habit To some
extent, has prevailed in our county of max
ing personal attacks upon the characters of
aspirants previous TO the selection of candi-
dates by the primaries, which has neccssi.
tated afterwards net only direct contradic.
tons, but most strenuous efforts to dispel
any uniavorablc effects which may have
been produced by such attacks.
AS a journal advocating the principles of
the Democratic party, we urge harmoni.

paper in the past SO it shall be in the future,
we shall so conduct its columns as to be In
condition to advocate the election of the
gentlemen nominated by the Democratic
party, free from the necessity of rctracting
or denying anything said previous to the

INTELLIGENCE MAKES WEALTH

u
As long as some men love learning for its
own sake, while Others do not there will be
ignorance in the land; as long as some
think, While others do not, there will be
foolish as well as wise; ~ long ~ some use
their muscles while Others do not, there will
be weak as well as strong. Even q Socialist
will admit all this, but, whether he will ad-
init It or not. it is equally true that as long
ne some men are enterprising, while Others
are no.. as long as some men are shrewd and
INSCRIPTIONS, while Others are not, az long
as some men are avaricious, while others are
not, and as long as some have physical en-.
dnrance, while others have not, so long there
will be rich and poor This lies In the ma.
lnre Of things. Man is an individual, and
will fight for himself. and the remedy Of the
weak against the strong is not by confisca.
ton and communism. which would simply
bring out u new aristocracy of wealth, but
by such system of combination and co.
operation that while il leaves the rich un +.
injured, will effectually prevent them from
using their riches to the injury of the poor.
Before this can come to pass the poor must
approach intellectually the level Of the rich.
An individual may rise intellectually and
yet be unable TO rise socially or financially,
but the intellectual elevation OF all poor
men would bring social and fnsncial ele.
walton. When the masses of the country
are well educated, in the broadest sense Of
the term. wealth will be more equally dis.
tributed, ana talk OF Communism will cease !;
but when, as 10 Russia, set Of men have
imbibed one.sided education find them.

A dispatch from New Orleans, dated
January the Goth, says: The Liberty bell,
from Philadelphia, arrived in this city to-
day and was received with special honors,
When the train bearing the bell drew up at
Beauvoir this afternoon, among the large
crowd assembled at the station was Varina
Davis Hayes, a little grand child of Jeffer-
son Davis. AS soon as the train stopped a
gentleman caught the child in his arms and
lifted her to the bell, which she warmly
clasped with her tiny arms, and reverently
kissed, exclaiming, "God bless the dear old
bell"
The incident was greeted with cheers,
which had not entirely subsidized when Mr..
Davis himself drove up with an escort OF
gentlemen who had been sent for him.
Mr. Davis was welcomed by the United
States Commissioner and invited to join in
escorting the bell to New Orleans.
81 think" said Mr.. Davis, "the time has
come when reason should be substituted for
passion, and when men who have fought in
support of their honest convictions should
do justice to each other.
"You, sacred organ, gave voice to the
preudest declaration that handful of men
ever made, when they faced the greatest mill
tary power on the globe; when handful of
men declared TO all the world their inaliena-
BILE rights and staked life, liberty and pros
perity in defense of this declaration.
"Then it was with your clear tones you
sent notice to all who were willing to live
or die Tor liberty, and felt that the day was
at hand when every patriot must do pa
triot's duty. Glorious old bell The son of
revolutionary soldier bows in reverence to
you, worn by time but increasing In sacred
memories"

Dynamite Explosion in London.

London was startled Saturday by three ex-
plosions of dynamite, two in Westminster
Palace, which contains the Houses of Par
lament, and one in the White Tower, with
in the walls OF the historic Tower of Lon.
don. The first explosion in Westminster
Palace was in Westminster Hall, and the
second occurred in what is called the lobby
under the Peers gallery in the House of
Commons. Saturday being visiting day.
there were a large number of sghtseers both
places over thirty persons were injured,
though, perhaps, none fatally, by shattered
windows and by the force of the conclusion.
Many of those hurt were women and chill
dren. Parliament was not in session, hay
ing adjourned on December 9th to Febru-
airy 10Th.
An inspection Of the Parliament buildings
showed that, excepting the beautiful win
dow overlooking the staircase at the south
end Of Westminster Hall, scarcely pane of
glass escaped destruction. The foundations
of the buildings were badly shaken. The
roof of the crypt, in spite Of its massive
strength, was greatly damaged, riAs being
visible here and there The floor of the
House of Commons presents strange spec
tacle, being covered with heaps of massive
fragments. The deliberately carved oaken
wall behind the seats was completely thrown
down. Several arrests have been made.

W. l.. G. APPLEBY, Esq.-Dear Sir: | take
much pleasure in stating that my wife is high
ly pleased VITA your Washing Machine which
bought Of you. She would not part With
it for anything in reason You may feel as
sured that the Success" is, and will be, a
perfect success. 1t does all that you claim
for it.
When a Washing Machine takes out the
dirt il does all that should be expected. II
fills the bill. And when it does the work in
less than one-half the time, with less than
halt the labor, and such labor as can be
found in almost any family, and with less
than half the wear and tear Of clothes as the
process of washing By hand does, all Of
which can justly be claimed BY the machine,
any one can readily see that the "Success"
is clear saving TO the average family Of two
or three times the price OF the machine.
Besides all this, one avoids the bother of a
class of demoralized labor which is found 10
the washer-woman of the nineteenth century.
