congress, 1856.

DIR. Shaws' majority in 1884 was 2.271 over
Blair. Republican. This year his plurality Is
3543 over Marine, and his majority over Ma
rine and Zouck is 2280.
Hon. H. Welles Rusk, Democrat, was elect
ed in the third congressional district by S,3ll
majority oyer all. He received IL, 534 votes.
Mr.. Henry A. Bose, Industrial and Republl-
can Endorsed candidate, received $500 votesi
Mr.. D. W. Glass, Prohibition candidate, re-
ceived l ,727 votes, and VIM. L. Hartley, Re-
publican, 1876 votes.
Hon. Isidor Rayner, Democrat, was elected
by a, 100 votes over all, and 1902 votes over
Hon. J. V. L. Findlay, Independent and Re
publican Endorsed candidate. Mr.. Rayner'
total vote was IA, $50, and Mr.. Findlay's u

publican, received 1,605; S. Q. Sanks, color.
ed. Independent Republican, 25 votes, and
Mr.. Eugene lowering, Prohibitionist, receiv-
ed 1852 votes.
The fifth district is composed of parts OF
Baltimore city, and St. Mary's, Charles, Cal.
vert. Prince Georges, Anne Arundel and
Howard counties. The candidates were Comp
ton, Democrat and present representative;
Tuck, Republican, and Armstrong, Prohibl-
ZIONIST In 1884 Compton defeated Hart b.
Holton by e71 majority. This year he had
plurality over Tuck of 2,705 and majority
over Tuck and Armstrong of 2,2SO. The
Prohibition vote was ABS; Republican 1921;
Democratic 1866.
The great contest was in the Sixth district
composed of Frederick, Montgomery, Wash
ington, Allegany and Garrett counties: The
district has been carried by the Republicans
at every congressional election for ten years.
Before that Hon. VIM. Walsh, Democrat, was
elected for two terms, but by very insignia
cant maiorities-once by only votes. The
present representative, McComas, is a very
popular man, and in 1884 carried the district
BY j, GIG majority To overcome this was q
great undertaking, but the Democrats nomi-
mated Col. L. Victor Baughman, of Frederick
who made gallant fight, and reduced Nc.
Comas' majority to less than 800. Col

by from four to FIVE hundred. The vote BY

From the extreme point of Garrett county
to the lowest points in st. Mary and Calvert
counties the returns of the election were for
warded by special couriers to the Baltimore
Sun on Tuesday night, and to the surprise
and qualification of all the full returns from
the 9Th and 9Th Congressional districts were
published on Wednesday morning. In some
cases distance of 70 miles was covered be-
fore the nearest telegraph office could be
reached. The public wanted the news and
the Sun gave it to them by using fast horses
and extra trains. 1t is the first time the feat
was ever accomplished, and the thousands Of
readers of that enterprising journal thorough
ly appreciate its success.

The result in Pennsylvania again proves
the great hold of Mr.. Blaine on the Re,
publican masses. Before he entered the
campaign there, Beavers chances were
doubtful, but the speeches of the magnetic
man aroused the party from its indifference
and apathy, and the result was Republi-
can plurality of over forty thousand. To
Blaiues canvass in New Jersey may be
charged the loss of Democratic congress
man there He continues to be the most
popular of the Republican leaders, and dis
nomination for the Presidency two years
hence is quite probable. In that event
however, he will have the same determined
opposition in his own party, and will again
be defeated

A remarkable Speech.

4 most remarkable speech was made by
citizen of Baltimore, last week, in aid OF
the candidacy of Hon. John V. L. Findlay,
for seat in the 50th Congress 1t was
remarkable for its coarse yituperation, and
while uttered by one claiming to be-
long to the creme de la creme Of Balti-
more society, it was more in keeping with
what might be expected from the pot-house
politician, accustomed to the billingsgate
of the sinks and purlieus of great city.
1t was remarkable, also, for its arrogance
and supercilious insolence toward several
gentlemen of this state who are more than
his peers in all that constitutes the true
gentleman and not the counterfeit; gentle
men who have been honored by the suf-
frages of their fellow citizens, and who have
attained an honorable position through their
own merits rather than the glamour OF a
name which has lost its prestige, and upon
which its present possessors have conferred
no lustre. A name craven upon the scroll
of history by the sword, in the hands OF
one who waded through carnage and slaugh-
ter to a throne, and whose elevation by such
questionable means was remarkable for
nothing so much as its fragrant and unpar-
alleled nepotism. A parvenu who essayed
the role of emperor; asoldier of fortune who
drew his blade not in the cause of justice and
human rights, but of sell, whose fame, like
meteor from the boys and fens, blazoned
for an instant its baleful fires against the
sky, then paled in the blackness Of dark
ness forever Is this legitimate ground
work for an overweening vanity which
flames up in the breast Of this degenerate
scion, not of an effete dynasty, because dy-
nasty there was none, but of a decaying
lineage, until he assumes to look down with
disdain upon his fellow men, but with a
righteousness which renders him fit target
for the sings and arrows of ridicule. He
has vet to learn that whatever value or
Importance he may attach to his patronym-
ic. it gives him no warrant of immunity
from the responsibilities which attach to
men in like circumstances.

Fair Elections.

At every election in Baltimore city the
public ear is vexed with allegations of fraud,
ballot-box stufing, pudding tickets, and an
unfair count. These alleged abuses are
complained of by the defeated party not
withstanding the safeguards thrown around
the ballot by every reasonable device for its
fairness and purity. The Baltimore Sun,
of Tuesday enumerated the precautions usu-
ually taken to insure fair election. In
reference to the election of that day, that
journal said:
SIT must be admitted that whatever may
have been the apprehensions of many voters
in advance in regard to the fairness of the
count, the knowledge that in today's contest
the people have at command 800 supervisors
appointed by the United States court and 900
special deputies by the United States marshal
for service at the polls in this city, ought GER
tai-!y to give the most encouraging assurance
that the right of every citizen to cast his ballot
and have it correctly counted will be fully
protected. Besides these 1880 federal guar
dams of the purity of the ballot box, we have
ego policemen, making 1920, to say nothing
of the 900 sworn officers of the State appoint.
ed as judges and clerks to conduct the elee-
ton honestly, or the representatives of the
candidates, two at least for each party in the
field, who will be present to insure the fair
count of the ballots when the voting is done. :"
In addition to the foregoing precautions
airy measures, the courts were actively en-
gagged in purifying the registration lists,
while the Reform League lent its superser-
viceable and offensive efforts in the same
direction. After all these efforts to guard
the purity of the ballot, it is incredible that
these allegations of fraud have any other
foundation than the distempered imagina-
tons of those who so loudly proclaim them

The vote of Carroll must be hattering to
DR.. Shaw. His immediate neighhors, who
appreciate him most, gave him the UMPIRE
eedented majority of 707, an increase over
his former majority of 245. His majority
in the whole district is owe $500. Two
years ago it was 2,271, showing an increase
at the late election of over 1900. His en-
dorsement by an increased majority is a
fit tribute to his fidelity to his trust.

The Democratic meeting at the Court
House last Saturday night was largely at
tended. 1t was called to order by Chair
man Grouse of the County Central Com
mittee, and Jas. A. C. Bond, Esq, was
called to preside. Jacob Shaffer was made
secretary. Hon. John P. Poe, of Balti-
more, was the first speaker, and his speech
was an able, logical and argumentatiVe
presentation of the issues of the campaign,
with hasty sketch of the efforts of the
Democracy to gain control of the govern
ment, and closing with a strong appeal for
the voters of Carroll to stand by their
neighbor, friend and Representative, Hon.
Frank T. Shaw. DIR. Shaw followed MIR.
Poe, and was greeted with great applause.
Owing to the lateness of the hour, his
speech was short, but in the brief time he
occupied he presented some figures to show
Athe retrenchment and reform effected by
the Democratic Administration, and ably
presented the tariff issue, giving practical
illustrations of the injustice of tariff for
protection. The Westminster Band was
present, and entertained the audience be-
fore and after the meeting with excellent
music.
The last Democratic rally in the county
was at Smallwood on Monday night, where
there was great gathering of the people,
and stirring speeches were made by Messrs.

tied with a gain of one in Maryland. Mr..

OFFICIAL VOTE CARROLL
Largely Increased Democratic
Majority.

The election in Carroll passed off quietly
as usual. The day was almost perfect one,
bright, clear and pleasant. The farmers
being busy, and no exciting cause to bring
them out, the vote was light, being 1853 less
than that cast two years ago. Two years ago
DR.. Shaw had Ago majority; last Tuesday he
led Marine, his Republican opponent, 7O7
votes. The Prohibition vote was 31l in the
county, and it was drawn about evenly from
both parties, and 707 is what the Democratic
majority would have been if the Prohibi-
tionists had not had candidate.
Every Democratic district did well, and the
vote in the Republican districts, except Mid
dleburg, fell off largely. The Republican
aggressive campaign did not turn outwell.
Below is the official vote of the county, as
made up by the return judges on Thursday:

1t is never safe to put much faith in the
first election returns. The Republicans
always claim everything and concede moth
ing, while the Democrats never claim what
they have not obtained. The first returns
and Republican claims on Tuesday night
and Wednesday indicated that the Repub-
cans had swept the country, but the official
vote and full returns changed the whole
phase of the matter and showed great
Democratic triumph.
