EXEUNT.

y Maryland Legislature, oyerwhelm-
ingly Democratic in both branches, has
just adjourned, its session having ex-
PRED by limitation.
We don't pretend to assert that as a
legislative body it had such deep con
Germ for the interests of the people that
it preferred to adjourn.
1t is the weakness of most Legisla-
lures to experiment upen the potent
ax-payers, not by endeavoring to see
under hoa, little but under hoor much
legislation State can prosper.
Our Maryland legislatures have p,ov-
ed no exception to the general rule.
They have been expensive luxuries
to our people.
From the time that ''the memory OF
man runneth not to the contrary" they
have burdened us with useless laws, in
passing which the time of their sessions
has been needlessly and expensvei,
consumed, only to secure the passage
of acts which, if not bad, have in SO
many instances stood as dead letters
upon our statute books.
1t is only the truth to say that not
much was expected of the present Leg
islature in the matter OF needed leglsla
ton. The conditions under which it
was elerted forestalled any such public
expectation.
The ambitions Of senatorial asprants
last fall dictated nominations for legisla-
tive candidates, rather than the prefer
ences of the electors, in most counties
of the State.
The "bosses" having made the Leg
islative states, their wills likewise created
that deadly enemy of the public purse,
the ''lobby." That it was not alt boa-
e,1nl at Annapolis is matter of public
thankfulness. The defeat Of the early
call for Constitutional Convention, in
tended by the political managers only
to overthrow capable public officers, is
a ratter OF congratulation. The defeat
Of the scheme for the lease OF the Ches-
apeake and Ohio canal is no less a mat
ter of public concern. In view Of these
results alone, We are disposed to accord
to the body just adjourned a generous
need OF praise for resisting effectively
the schemes of a reckless lobby. 1t is
no less a matter Of justice to our Rep
resentatives from Cecil to say that they
were identified with the best elements
Of this Legislature.

THAT is a good story which the Rev.
DR.. Rush, secretary of the Freedmens
Aid Society of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, tells to the Annual Confer
ences, before which he presents the
claims Of his society. 4 You * negro
in the South had been converted and
at once wanted to preach. His elders
thought he was not fitted for the i'm
portant work but he well nigh stag
gered them by relating a vision, in
which he had plainly seen the letters
&c. p. (Which could mean only
go preach Christ" y white haired
negro preacher slowly arose and told
the ambitious Young brother that, while
he had no doubt seen the letters in a
vision, he | I'D fail ID in the interpre,a
ton. They probably meant, $50 pick
COTTON or 600 plough corn This
settled the matter. a preacher in the
New York Conference, when the story
was told a few days ago, remarked to
a friend sitting near: ri wish we had
men IN our white conferences sharp
enough to explain away as satisfac-
torily the arguments by which our
young incompetents try to convince
the committees that they have been
cllled to preach the Gospel"

THE RUMORFD CABINET
CHANGES.

The Cincinnati En2uijrr is au-
thority for the reported misunderstand-
ing between the President and Secre-
tary Manning, on the day the latter
was stricken with paralysis, some
shallow of plausibility being given to
the story by the fact, that the Presi
dent has not called to see the secre-
tary during his critical illness. Other
Democratic paper, noticeably the New
York Sta, denies that any difference
exist between them. However this
may be, it is no less the fact that ru-
mors OF cabinet changes fill the atmos-
phere at Washington. The New York
He,aA reports MIR. Bayard as being
"tired." That Mr.. Garland is in "poor
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1886-04-10

health, and that he intends to leave
the cabinet as soon as the telephone
inquiry in the House has been com
pleted. Whatever the fact may be,
Mr.. Manning's retirement whether
voluntary or enforced would be the
greatest loss the administration could
sustain. Since he has been secretary
he has shown himself to be man Of
brains and industry.

HIGH LICENSE VS.. PROHI-
BlTION,

The Legislature which closed its ses-
sion on Monday night passed no bill
iraught with 1.-THE OF the importance
to the people of this county as that
authorizing our legal voters to decide
at the next falls election whether the
High License system or Prohibition
shall be the future policy in Cecil.
Every intelligent man in the county,
without regard to politics, class or creed,
will concede that rum is pestiferous
evil.
Every intelligent man in Cecil will
applaud total abstinence when prac-
ticed by individuals.
Every intelligent man in Cecil will
concede that rum drinking is the great
obstacle to the spread OF morality and
religion.
Every worklngman in Cecil county
knows that rum is his worst enemy.
Every Knight Of Labor knows that
rum drinking would turn his order into
a raging mob.
Every farmer in Cecil county knows
that the laborer who does not drink
rum at all is the hand he wants.
Every mechanic knows that sobrlety
means, a better home, a happier wife,
and children better cared for.
In word, all men, without regard
to occupation, class or condition, rec
ognlze the evils of rum drinking as too
palpable to deny.
And yet these same men in their
capacity as qualified voters must needs
be called upon to decide by their bal
lets whether CT not we shall re organize
a system the inevitable result of which
will be to perpetuate and multiply the
evils We all deplore.
And yet these same men as intelli
gent voters are to be appealed to, to
say, that the rum traffic ought to be re-
legalized, because the opponents of
Local Option, in whose hands has been
the enforcement of the present law,
have succeeded in bringing a defective
law into pubic contempt.
Now, if defective law, as the pres
ent Local Option law is conceded to
be, was approved by majority Of 100
intelligent voters in Cecil county, not
one of the supporters of which we as
sert has charged his opinion upon the
evils of rum drinking, by every rule OF
logic and reason, we assert that more
perfect law should receive not a lesser.
but greater majority.
Query
Can the partial failure of palpably
defective law be logically and reasona-
bly, deemed sufficient evidence Of the
impracticabllity Of Prohibition as pub
lie measure in Cecil county, when for.
tilted by popular sentiment under the
more favorable condition of less de-
fective law
We think not.
And when the time comes to say so
we do not think majority Of the quail
flied and intelligent voters of Cecil
county will so declare.

THE HOUSE OF DELEGATES.

The House late tonight commenced to
pass orders to pay extra compensation to
a couple of employees and to pay for their
extras. \ hot debate ensued. Mr.. Nc
Fa!land said the cost of the session, less
the extraordinary expenses, was 81 900
less than in 1881 Mr.. Stake said de
ficiency bill for SIG, 900 had been passed
to meet the expenses of the session, and
it appeared that the House was deter
mined to vote it all away. Mr.. Silver
reminded the members that the extrava
gance OF the session of 1880 made the
Legislature of 1882 almost Republican
body. lie warned them a sainst this dis
position to increase the number of EN-
ployeS and giving extra compensation.
Mr.. l. iird called attention 10 the fact
that the Legislature of 1SS2 designated
explicitly the number of employees and
their conversation. The only way to
get around that would be 20 pass new
act The House is bound by that until
1t is repealed. MIR. Gunther sad the
House has the right to have as many EN-
ploys Is it deems necessary. the limit
may be a matter of policy, but not OF

nents applauGed their victory.

bly, Speaker Seth ordered the sergeant
at arms to seek out the culprit, but he
wat not to be iCund. Mr.. Mudd's order
was laid on The table. Speaker Seth then
announced the adjournmt mt i'll the fol
lowing valedictory:
Gentlemen of the House of Delegates:
In rising to perform the last duty of the
position to which, in the abundance OF
your kindness, | was called ninety days
duties have been arduous and at times
somewhat unpleasant, and while | have
always had an expressing weight of fear
that should fail to do justice and right
towards you. and have, therefore, ear
nestly wished for the end, it now affords
me pleasure to say that your conduct to-
wards me at all times has been such as
to cheer and encourage me and to leave
me now without a single unkind feeling,
and | now find it a truly sorrowful task
to sever our associations and to formally
declare this House adjourned without
day.
The gavel fell and the House adj
journed amid applause.
