WHY THEY REFUSED.
Story Of the Crew OF the Schooner s, A
Paine.

Puines
The schooner S. A. Paine, from Prince
Edward Island, bound for Philadelphia with
potatoes, was compelled to put into New
York recently on account of the storm. The
next afternoon she sailed, but had hardly left
the deck at Stapleton, when the crew refused
to obey the captains order and droppea
hnchC. The policeiboat Patrol was sum
monel, and it brought off, as prisoners fJ
mutiny, James McMullen and Richard SUIT
tor he latter colored, both of New York
city, and Axel j. Holsen of Boston. The
men said that the Paine was leaking badly,
and that they would not risk the voyage to
Philadelphia in her. McMullen said; ave

on Dec. Is, and all hands had to go to, the

locked here and the men paid off, But he
put into Stapleton and laid up alongside the

Attention, Democrats.

Two weeks from next Tuesday is cleo
tion day. The Democratic nominee Tor
Congress, Hon. Frank I. Shaw, is entitled
to the vote of every Democrat in the coun-
tv and it should be our pride, as it is our
5utv TO cast our ballots for him, and give
him A cordial endorsement at home.
The Democrats of Carroll claimed a re-
nomination for him, not only because 1t
was party usage to re-nominatc Repre-
sentative. but for the further and chief
reason that he was capable and true to his
trust. DIR. Shaw, for new member, took
high rank in the present House OF Re
representatives., served on important COM
mittees, and faithfully represented his
constituents. 1t is the duty of the Demo
Gratis of Carroll, then, to show by their
votes not only their endorsement of his
course. but to show the Democrats of other
counties that they were in earnest in asking
for his denomination.
So far this, to all appearances, is the
ouietest campaign known in this district
for some years. No meetings have been
held. no speeches been made, and nothing
has transpired beyond the nominating OF
candidates to indicate that an election is
to be held for the high Office of Represen-
tative in Congress. The press Of the dis
trict have been almost barren of campaign
articles, particularly the Republican press
The Democrats appear to think that no
effort is necessary, in view of the prepon-
derating Democratic majority in the dis
trict, but there is danger in resting quietly
upon such security. There is a Demo-
cratic majority only when the Democratic
vote is polled The election is not going
our way without our votes.
While the Democrats are building upon
their large natural majority, the Republi-
cans are taking advantage of the situation
and are quietly at work, but nevertheless
energetically. They have a surprise IN
store for us, unless we arouse from our
lethargy They are saying nothing on the
stump or through the press, to stir up the
Democratic hosts, but are arranging to get
out their full vote.
DR.. Shaw is entitled to $500 majority
in this district on full poll, and it is our
duty to give him every vote. The active
workers in every county, particularly in
Carroll, should see to it that every Demo-
crat casts ballot for the Democratic NOM

New York Politics.

The Democrats of New York city have
nominated Hon. Abram S. Hewitt for
Mayor. Although he belonged to the
County Democracy, he was first nominated
by Tammany Hall, and then successfully
endorsed by the County Democracy and
Irving Hall Democracy This unanimity
of action insures Democratic success be-
You'd doubt, and gives the party an ad-
vantage in the Presidential contest of 1888.
A few weeks ago the outlook was not pro-
missing. The business men had put for
ward strong candidate, j. Edward Sim
mons, and the Labor party had nominated
Henry George Both of these were daily
drawing strong following, while the Re-
pubicaus were looking around for pop
ular leader to run in between the Others
and thus secure the mayoralty, position
only less in power and influence to that of
President of the United States Mr..
Hewitts nomination, however, has changed
all calculations entertained by the oppo-
nents of the Democracy. MIR. Simmons
has Withdrawn, and will use his influence
for the Democratic nominee, and the Re
publicans have solicited several prominent
Republicans in vain The labor vote is
leaving Mr. George for Mr.. Hewitt, and
all looks fair and sure for great Demo
cratic victory.
The Democratic unity in the. city has
inspired the party throughout the state
and the Empire State may be classed this
year as certain for the Democracy.

Baltimore Republicans.

The Republicans in the third and fourth
Congressional Districts Baltimore city,
held primary elections on Wednesday ant
Congressional nominating Conventions OIL
Thursday night The primaries in the
third district passed off quietly, and the
convention appointed committee to look
around for Republican to lead the for
lorn hope, and then adjourned.
In the fourth district, from which Mr.
John Very Light Findlay holds seat in
Congress by Democratic votes, there was
great turmoil and excitement in the prima
ries. A part of the Republicans wanted
to endorse Mr.. Findlay, who has acted
more with the Republicans than with the
Democrats ia Congress, and another ele-
ment were in favor of nominating u Re
publican. These two factions locked horns
in the primaries, and the proceedings were
anything but creditable to the ''party OF
high moral ideas, or to Mr.. Findlay, who
has been sailing on a plane of morality a
little higher than ever before attained in
this country. There were quarrels, dis
putes, stufing and smashing of ballot
boxes, buying of voters, &C., &c. Mr.
Findlay, it is said, contributed ''handsome-
Iy" to the encouragement" fund, the
amount of the encouragement" being
stated at $4,000.
There were of course, contesting delega-
tons, and the nominating convention was
a "howling mob,' as one of the delegates
termed it. The convention split, one wing
endorsing Findlay and the other nominating

The Democrats of Baltimore have NOM
mated their candidates for Congress with a
.unanimity that is gratifying to the Democ-
racy of the state The primaries passed of
quietly, the conventions were harmonious,
and all looks serene for carrying both dis
tricts by good majorities. In the third
district Harry Welles Rusk was nominated
for the unexpired term Of DR.. Cole and fol
the fiftieth Congress, and Isidor Raynel
was nominated in the fourth district, now
misrepresented by John V. L. Findlay
Messrs. Rusk and Rayner are both young
men, the former thirty-three and the latter
thirty-six years of age. Both have served
in the House of Delegates and Senate Of
Maryland, and both are lawyers of ability
and fine debaters.
