MIR. BLAINE SHOULD SPEAK TRUTH.

In late speech Mr.. Blaine said: "At
the last session of Congress the Demo-
Gratis, backed by the power Of the Nation
al Administration, sought to break
down the protective tariff"
Why, any stump, slangwhanging
orator might have uttered this stuff.
The Morrison bill, which Democratic
votes prevented from being considered
by the House, would, if enacted into
law, have left the tariff 30 per cent.
higher than was considered sufficient
for the purposes of protection by Sena-
tor Morrill, and his Republican assO-
Ciates who controlled Congress In 1861,
and considerably higher than President
ArthuI's PrOtectiOnist Commission, , back
ed by two Republican Secretaries Of the
Treasury, said would be ample for both
protection and revenue In 1883.
Tariff reform Democrats In the House
simply attempted to redeem the pledges
made in the platforms of both political
parties, to correct the Inequalities and
Injustice Of the tariff, as a means of
preventing the Treasury surplus and
putting stop to extravagant 8ppropri-
atiOns. Whoever, of either party, shall
resist this policy, will find 1t the worse
for himself In the end. The war taxes
must come down, and that soon.

SENATOR FRYE denies the "smlTch"
story, as to a single stain on Blaine's
spotless garments, and of course blames
1t on the reporter. That's the way with
the big guns, when through excitement
from any cause they make mess of
things. The reporter is to blame," is
convenient dodge, and the people dis
count the excuse. Now that Mr.. Frye
has repudlated that portion of his speech
which referred to Blaine's "smirch,"
perhaps he will either deny that he ever
called some of the Prohibitionist lead
ers "unblushing, impudent scoandrels,
who are helped by the Democrats to de-
feat the Republican party" or accept
Lieut-GOVernOr st. Johns challenge,
and name the leaders to whom he refer
red as showing his recklessness In the
use of personalities.

ONE Of the latest suicides reported
was that of German woman Of New
York, who lost her reason through
hOmesickness. Probably most of the
suicides among foreigners are traceable
to this disease. The German love of
home and the Fatherland is intense,
but nostalgia, the scientific name for
hOmesickness, is not so frequent among
Germans as among the lighter hearted
and more impressible French. When
the Third Napoleon kept up his i'm.
mense standing army by conScription,
the ravages of nostalgia among the con-
scripts sometime startled the health au-
thorities of the army, and they had to
rack their brains for devices to turn the
thoughts of the men from home. The
disease seemed to be contagious, and
ran through the regiments like a pesti-
lence. Americans love home and
native land, hut nostalgia among them
is rarely heard of except In case of
women. The average Americana fond
ness for adventure and confidence In
his ability to take care of himself rem
ders him proof against melancholy
and Inconsistencies.

when tho returns come In from the

Death of Congressman Cole.

DIR. VIM. II. Cole, of Baltimore, representa-
tive in Congress from the third district of
Maryland, died at his residence in Washing
ton, on the 9Th instant, of Bright's disease
DIR. Coles career was varied. He was ad-
mitted to the bar in 1857 and removed to
Kansas, but was driven out of the territory
along with other Democrats who sympathiz-
ed with the South. From Kansas he went to
New Orleans, studied medicine graduated
in 1860 and in 1861 entered the Confederate
army as private in Virginia regiment
He became hospital steward, then assistant
and afterwards full surgeon He was left in
charge of the wounded of Longstreet's cops,
after the battle of Gettysburg, and was i'm
prisoned in Fort McHenry for six months
After his release he returned South and acted
as surgeon on Gen. Bradley II. Johnson's
staff until the close of the war. Returning
to Baltimore he became newspaper reporter
and was connected with the Baltimore
Gazette. He was deputy register of Balti
more city in 1870 and chief clerk of the city
council. In 1874 and for three successive
terms he was reading-clerk of the House of
Delegates.
In 1884 he was elected to Congress, where
he attended 10 the interests of his constitu-
ents with the utmost diligence. His health
began to fail soon after his election
He remained at his post until about two
months ago when his wretched health COM
PEELED him to remain at home
The funeral of Hon. VIM. II. Cole took

The Campbell Index.

The clause in the new marriage license law
requiring the use of the Campbell system of
indexing has given the clerks of courts in
the State some concern. No provision was
made in the law for paying for the right to
use the system, and the clerks naturally OBJ
iect to bearing the expense themselves There
is also considerable doubt whether the law,
rs passed, actually contained the clause max
ing the use of the Campbell system obliga-
tory or not. The impression Of Senator
johnson, of Dorchester, as given in letter
to Tile Sun, is that the whole bill was lost in
the Senate, for want of constitutional ma
iority, once or twice, and was finally called
up at the solicitation of ministers who inter
viewed each Senator, requesting the passage
of this bill because it relieved them of much
responsibility, and when called up, the clause
requiring the use of the Campbell index, be-
ing Objectionable to large number of Sena-
tors, was stricken out and the bill then passed.
The Sun has also obtained from number
of other Senators their recollection of the
circumstances attending the passage of the
bill. Several of them think the bill pass
ed with the clause relating to the Campbell
index stricken out. Others think the bill
passed the Senate as it came from the House,
with the provision requiring the Campbell
index to be used Senator John Sappington,
of this county, says that his impressions of
the passage of the bill agree with those of
Senator johnson. The bill was very objec-
tionable to every Senator with whom he
talked.
In regard to the index itself, the experience
in its use in Hartford county has not been
favorable. Some years ago the subject of
providing an index to the will books in the
office of the Register of Wills was agitated
and the County Commissioners appropriated
about 5000 for the right to use the Campbell
system of indexing. A book was procured
but it has never been used, the Register pre-
ferring to use the ordinary system of index
ing, similar to that used from time immemor-
ial in the Clerks office, which has been found
to be all that is needed.
In procuring the books for recording the
applications for marriage licenses record
book was sent to the Clerks office in Bel Air,
containing the Campbell index. 1t has not
been used. When marriage license is re-
turned by the minister who performs the
ceremony the fact is recorded, and complete
alphabetical index made, by means of which
there is no difficulty in ascertaining all the
facts that could possibly be obtained in the
Clerks Office with reference to any particular
marriage
There seems to be huge job in compelling,
by law, the clerks of courts to use a costly
index when one much more simple and free
for all will answer the purpose. AS matter
of course the clerks object to the expense and
the County Commissioners will likewise be
opposed to a heavy outlay for something that
nobody seems to want and that is entirely
unnecessary.
