The fisheries treaty was rejected on Tues
day last. Twenty seven Senators, all Dem
ocrats, voted to ratify, and thirty, all Re-
publicans, voted to reject. To carry the
treaty through the affirmative votes of thirty
eight Senators would have been necessary.
The Democrats offered the Republicans the
opportunity TO substitute another treaty for
the rejected one to effect. settlement Of
this important question, but they would not
accept it, They were too unpatriotic and
partisan to serve their country first as dig
nified Senators.

those of the county of Montgomery, we say
do not be lukewarm. The questions in
volved in this canvass are directly con-
nected with those interests which are your
interests. 1t is in your power-it is your
privilege to redeem the district from the
obloquy Of being the only district Of Mary
land that endorses misrule; wasteful ex-
penditure of the peoples money and a con-
tinuatioa of the grinding doaon Of tue farmer.
Send to the halls Of Congress man who
will, while guarding jealousy all your
rights, do honor to you by his upright, fear
less and able championship of Democratic
principles-such a one is our Congressional
nominee, Col. Douglas.

Mr.. Blaine comes back healthier, but
not more truthful or consistent man than
when he went away. In his speech in New
York he said no matter what could be said
of him on other subjects, no body could
truthfully accuse him of Inconsistency on
the revenue question now before the coun-
try. But Mr. Blaine's mind must be in bad
way if he did not, at the time he made that
speech, remember that he had, as a Con
gresham, voted for the repeal of the tax on
salt, lumber and coal, had written letter
opposing the removal of the tax on whisky.
1t was hoped that Mr.. Blaine's lapses of
memory had been cured by his foreign trip.

were apathy and treachery existing in the
management by the Democratic National
