JUDGE Frederick Stone, presiding
at the circuit court for st. Mary q
county, decided last week a case
involving the right Of the Legislature
to X dividing line in rivers between
counties. The case grew out of an act
Of the General Assembly requiring st.
Mary 5 and Calvert oystermen to keep
to their, respective side OF the Patux-
ent river The Judge decided the
act TO be null aud void, and that the
fishermen Of ST. Mary's and Calvert
are entitled to the use of the Patux
ent 10 common. The decision is far
reaching in its effect and will throw
open the Wicomico river and other
waters. 1t has occasioned consider.
able excitement in Clustering circles.

President from the West.

Inc OdklblAl
Some time ago we referred to the crystal
lizing of a sentiment East in favor of Sena-
tor Stanford as the Republican nominee
for President in 1883. The Chronicle, re-
ferring to the same subject, quotes the late
remarks of Senator Edmunds, which 1t as
suues were made in reference to and in
favor of our California Senator. Senator
Edmunds, upon being questioned as TO
the prospects of Republican success in
1883, responded that " it depends upon who
is nominated. If the Republicans so TO the
West and select some good, clean, upright
man, with an honest record on financial
questions, n man who is above reproach,
the chances for the Republicans electing
their candidate will be, L should say, seven
out of ten"
The Chronicle thinks this refers specially
to Senator Stanford, as he fills the bill.
California will be very proud should she be
called upon to furnish Tie next President.
and no man East or West would make a
more safe or able Chief Executive than
her honored Senator. AS we stated months
ago, he is free fiom all entangling alliances.
feudS and differences that surround the
prominent men OF the East, and would
unite the party as probably no other man
could do. His ability is unqucstioned,
standing in the forefront of the ablest men
of our land. He has been tried in official
positions and never found wanting. His
wide grasp of intellect, business qualifica-
tons and stern integrity of character,
purity of life and thorough knowledge of
the whole scope of the business and wants
of the nation make him peculiarly qualified
for theposltion. But would Senator Stanford
accept the great responsibility Should it
be rendered him he cannot refuse-no citi-
zen can refuse the call of the people. Still
we are assured that the Senator would far
prefer the peace and quiet of private life
that he may perfect and carry out the great
educational plan he has conceived and in
augurated, which will be greater and
more lasting monument to his memory
than even that of President of the Repub-
lie. There are two years yet intervening
before the Presidential canvass will be in
augurated, and no one can tell what
changes may occur in those two years. 1t
is too early to start Presidential booms.
But the attention directed toward Senator
Stanford is not in the nature of g boom,
but simply an acknowledgment of his pc
culiar fitness and availability for the high
DOsitiOn.

water ten hours day in the Ohio Peni-
Tertiary. There is no difference whatever
between the Ohio and the California news
paper manager who engages in lewd sensa-
ionalism-except this, that Ohio has a
legal lash for the backs of such corruptors
of public morals, while we have none. If
blackguard on the highway strikes the
daughter of citizen in the face, public
opinion will justify father or brother in
beating the brute to jelly But the pos
SCISSOR of a few types, press and some
villainously cheap ink can strike every
maiden in the land a more vicious and
damaging blow every day in the week by
thrusting under her gaze the most revolt
ingly lewd and corrupting reports,
under the miserably thin disguise that vice
is being exposed to "the purifying gaze of
the public which is a bit of sentimental
rot and hypocritical gush.
The San Jose Herald, referring TO this
subject, well says:
There is wide difference between the cour-
ageouS handling OF vice or the exposure of fraud
and crime and the unwholesome sensationalism
planned to attract attention TO vice and crime.
Certain papers of widespread inllu-
eace and substantial character do pander to
morbid and vicious tastes 10 such an extent that
they are rendered wholly unfit for admission TO
! the family circle, and unquestionably contribute
much to the injury of society.
And the duty Of society, of every father,
mother and decent person who claims place
in it, is to set face and hand against all
such papers and any manner of contribu-
ton to their support In the absence of
law, there may be invoked and applied a
corrective more potent-pubic condemna-
ton; that of the decent, self-respecting
public. As for the vicious, corrupt, lasciy-
ious and bawdy, to that clientage, and that
alone, all such papers should be driven.

PERgICI0Us NEWSPAPER PyBLICA
TI0ES.

The Court in sentencing \. J. Bebout,
Of the Toledo Sunday Democrat, to the
State Prison, for publishing lewd articles
ard soandaIous matter in that paper, said
The effects of such publications are wide
reaching and rerncious, invading the homes of
the people, and corrlptins the innocent and in
experienced minds Of the young, and bringing
consequent ruin upon families
This was 4 very mild statement of the
villaiIcus effects Of vicious newspaper
work. There ought to be no censorship of
the pies, but there should be such laws
and SIGH vigorous prosecutions under them
as would completely prevent the publica-
ton Of lascivious accounts of trials"
storie,of amorous intrigue and disgusting
details of marital infdelity, under the
guise Of exposing" crime and libertinism
"to tie purifying gaze of public opinion"
All slieh pleas in defense of such printing
of filth are hollow pretense, hypocritical
and cowardlv. The papers that indulge in
this lind of thing have no regard what
ever for the good of the public" Their
sole aim is to SELF their issues They
know very well that exposures of this
class made by newspapers have no
other effect than to influence the passions
and corrupt the tastes, They know that
all such revelations, aggregated, measured
and weighed, do not effect the correction of
sin de wrong, or the righting of a single
innocent person. Nor will such publica-
tions serve in the slightest degree to check
such practices as are exposed. But if all
were true that is claimed for such vicious
publications and one of which, especiallyre-
pulsiys,, filled a couple of columns in San
Francisco paper on Sunday, and again on
Tuesd;iy, the stain such reading imprints
upon Tie youthful mind more than eoun-
terbalsnces it. The bloom of in
nocence in youth, the spotless soul of pur-
ity in smaidenhood, the modesty of the
true wife, the chastity of thought in son
and daughter, the decency of manhood in
the selfrespecting husband and father are
rudely offended and most often furnished
by such printing. The sheet that seeks
out such filth is not fit to be brought
into tie household The father who would
put slieh publication into his daughters
hands, would himself be capable of cor
rupting and running his child. The mother
who would deliberately place such reading
before her young son, would not blush to
see him degrade the family name. The
methods employed to gain reputation as
a sensational sheet by certain papers in
this State are every whit as disreputable,
base and damnable as those ayailed of by
Bebout, and for which he is pumping

MR.. BAYARD's DILEMMA.

There is much criticism Of Mr.. Bavard
for his hasty action in the Cutting case
We have said that he was, at that time,
fortified by public opinion based on misin-
formation. But should Mr.. Bayard have
been thus influenced? Certainly not. 1t
was his duty as diplomat TO have ascer-
tanned the facts first. For that there is
red tape and diplomatic formality. He
employed neither, and hence his blunder.
As statesman he must bear the burden of
the consequences. Now Mr.. Sedgwici has
been sent out to do that which Mr.. Bayard
should have done in the first instance, and
the probable result will be the withdrawal
of the demand for Cuttings release But
we note that il is said in Washington cir
cles that because of all this laundering
Mr.. Bayard, when the matter is closed up,
will resign, feeling that he has had public
rebuke and should thus recognize it. 1t is
to be hoped Mr.. Bayard will do nothing of
the kind. We want no introduction of
the English system here, that sends
Minister to the wall SO soon as he happens
to disagree with the public sentiment
Such practice may do under a Monarchy
it is wholly inconsistent with the theory of
this Republic. 1t would mean something
here if the resignation Of the administra-
ton followed in such cases but to succeed
the blunder of one department, would be
but to involve the business of the Gov
eminent sadly, and not necessarily work
change of policy. 1t cannot be officially
noticed by Mr.. Bayard that the public
does condemn him. The public has not
expressed itself in any way on the subject
that needs to claim his official attention.
Let him stand to his post, and if he is
finally found to have erred, admit it grace

have profound admiration for the Amer
lean people" Mr.. Chauncey NJ. Depew,
in behalf of the Americans, responded
saying, "The three millions of Germans
in America are among our best citizens
but, though they do so much for US, they
never lose any of their love of Fatherland,
and they have taught fifty million Amer
leans the deepest esteem and veneration
for their Emperor and the great people he
so wisely governs" All this is very pretty,
and all proper enough. The Kaiser is at
the head Of mighty nation. Many OF
his nationality are now of our citizenship.
They are an energetic people and, barring
a few Socialists and Anarchists, law-abid-
ing, industrious and of our best citizenship.
Not because he is William or an Emperor,
but because he stands for a great people,
Americans paid compliments to him.
He was undoubtedly sincere in saying he
admires the American people. Who could
help it. The pork incident is now all
forgotten and forgiven.

The receipts from these sales amounted to
