Our respected representative at A

Our respected representative at An
napolis, DR.. R. c. Mackall brought his
oratorical guns to bear this week on the
question OF a new State Election Law,
in the following eloquent strain: "He
would favor any election bill which
would give the citizens pure and fair
elections. By its action on the Elec-
ton bill the Democratic party must
stand or fall. The party has pledged
the law, and why not give itP 1t will
place the Democratic party on the high
plane it once occupied for purity of
elections. eft this law is not given, y
he continued, "the roar of the waves
which break upon the sandy coast of
the Eastern Shore and the bowling of
the tempests through the gorges and
over the mountains of Western Mary
land will be the sound of the lutte and
harp compared to the storm OF indig-
nation which will fill every breast for
our wilful neglect in not giving the peo-
pie this promised and much needed
law" Applause.

WOULD WOMAN'S BALLOT REFORM

From the NeC York World.
the attention of women who think that
certain social reforms would be promoted
il their sex possessed the ballot is respect
fully called to the Rev T Dewitt Tai
mage. Although this learned pulpiteer
does not believe that men have right to
compel woman to pay taxes and with
hold the ballot from her at the same time,
he doubts il her suffrage would advance
the cause either of political purity, tenn
perauce or tairer wages. Many will be
surprised to learn that DIR. Talmage does
not accord to woemen an exceptionally
exalted character. He regards them col
lcctively as of the earth, earthy-some of
them very much SO. "Multitudes OF wo-
men," he said last Sunday, "drink, and it
is no unusual think to see them in res
taurants so overpowered with wine and
beer that they can hardly sit up. Mr.
Talmage must be very unfortunate in his
selection of restaurants If he is brought to
this conclusion. With more truth he
said: There are many so-called respec-
table restaurants where they can go and
take their champagne and toddy all
alone. The women, he thinks, on the
rum question would vote very much as
the men do.
With respect to the effect of women's
votes on women's wages he is especially
severe. women are harder on women
than men are, % in his opinion. ''If you
want to hear beating down of prices and
wages in perfection listen how some
women treat washer women and dress
makers AID female servants And a
woman shipwrecked in character r is
hurled by other women with the force
of catapult clear out and off and down
and under"
This is not our fight. We leave Mr..
Talmage to critics who, according to him,
are more "merciless, '"cruel" aud unfor-
giving" than men are. But some things
that he has said in the premises are
worthy of consideration.

ELKTON. MARCH ,, 1855.

A very nice little printing job has
Just been exposed at Annapolis. Five
thousand copies of the report OF the
State Board of Health have been
printed at a cost OF $500, when one
thousand were more than were needed.
1t is reported that the number OF these
books which are being stored in the Gel
lar of the State House is something
startling. After the Legislature adiourns
they will be sold as old paper. Go it.
Democracy in Maryland is an expensive
luxury, but as the people want it, they
must expect to pay for it.

Considering the tall electioneering
recently done by Mr.. and Mrs. Cleve-
land, and the adroit schemes being laid
by the Presidents political adherents,
the following paragraph from his letter
OF August 18th 1884, accepting the
nomination for the Presidency should
prove interesting reading. "When an
election to office shall be the selection
by the voters of one of their number
to assume for time public trust in
stead of his dedication to the profession
of politics when the holders of the
ballot, quickened by sense of duty,
shall avenge truth betrayed and pledges
broken, and when the suffrage shall be
altogether free and interrupted, the
full realization of a government by the
people will be at hand. And OF the
means to this end not one would, in
my judgment, be more effective than
an amendment to the Constitution, dis.
qualifying the President from re-elec-
ton. When we consider the patronage
of this great office, the allurements of
power, the temptation to retain place
once gained, and, more than all, the
availability party finds in an incum-
bent whom a horde of ofice-holders,
with zeal born of benefits, and fos-
tered by the hope of favors yet to come,
stand ready to aid with money and
trained political'service, we recognize
in the eligibility of the President for re-
election most serious danger to that
calm. deliberate, and intelligent politi-
cal action which must characterize a
government by the people,"

testimony and that of one other poilti'
cal associate of his, that the court SIX
wears ago based the decision which 1t
now believes was wrong. Doubtless
MIR. Turner imagined, that having once
succeeded in imposing upon the Court,
he could repeat his political trick. The
preliminary work had been skillfully
done, by him and his heelers. Seven
teen clean Republican ballots had been
adroitly distracted from the ballot-box
of the EaSton District and seventeen
Democratic tickets had been carefully
substituted in their stead. But Judge
Stump's cruel arithmetic knocked MIR.
Turner'S political "cipherin' sky high.
The Judge showed concluslvely that to
sustain the accuracy of the recount
claimed by Mr.. Turner and his ''suhstl-
tute" confederates, that exactly forty
seven GIICIS llluSl hdSS OSSh Noihithii'eNN
by the Judges and clerks of election in
Easton. This was too severe a tax
upon ordinary credulity. No such num-
Der of errors could possibly have been
committed by men Of ordinary clerical
intelligence, and the conclusion was
irresistible, that the ballot-box had been
tempered with since the original election
returns had been made out, by which
a small majority had been shown IN
favor of the Republicans. 1t was
clear attempt to introduce Baltimore
methods into Talbot politics, and as
such met the severe and timely rebuke
which Judge Stump administered to the
INSCRIPTIONS gentlemen identified with
it. Since his decision Judge Stump
has been the subject of very general
and complimentary comment. His
manly frmness does him credit, since
it only affords additional evidence that
he deserves the public confidence as
rigidly impartial and incorruptible
member of the Maryland Bench.
The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1888-03-03
We have always believed that outsl

We have always believed that outside
of the city of Baltimore elections have
as a general rule been fairly conducted
in this State, and that to whatever
lengths partizan politicians may have
gone to secure votes in favor of parti-
cular candidates, that there has rarely
been in the counties of Maryland any
organized attempt to stuff ballot-boxes,
or to talsify election returns. On
account of this habitual exemption from
political corruption which the counties
of Maryland have enjoyed, public atten-
ton throughout the State has been par
ticularly drawn to the contested cleo
ton cases in Talbot county, and which
Judge Stump SO summary disposed of
on Friday of last week. The evidence
in these cases clearly shows that the
contest in question was one in which a
political fraud was attempted to be
practiced upon the people of Talbot
county that certain factional Demo-
cratic leaders of the town of Easton had
been fairly defeated at the polls last
fall in securing majority for their local
ticket, and relying upon the political
sympathy and support of a court whose
judges were Democrats, they could
succeed in getting partizan decision
in their favor, and thereby reverse the
popular decision. But the sequel shows
TO the credit Of this Judicial District and
to the State at large, that we have judges
made of sterner stuff than Mr.. Frank
Turner, ex-Comptroller and defunct
manipulation OF ballots, imagined. Now
the admission made by Judge Stump,
that it was the opinion of the entire
Bench in this district that the Court
had been morally imposed upon SIX
years ago in rendering a decision in
favor of certain Democratic contestants
IN that county, carries sting with it,
that should tester long and deep IN

any sensibility at all, since, if we remem-

Nevertheless, although, if melted before

Improvement of the Race,

a writer in Nineteenth Century, taking
the cue of the new impulse to discuss
human culture, makes some suggestions
under the heading Horticulture. He
believes a good deal could be done by
directing public attention to the laws
that underlie Improvement Of stock. He
also urges that before marriage permit
is allowed parties should be compelled to
submit to medical examination, to show
that they are not laboring under heredi-
tary diseases. Beyond this be would have
the absolute prohibition Of habitual Grim
inals from propagating their kind These
suggestions have been to some degree
urged before by Dugdale. but they are
timely. No question Is Of more impor-
tance than the Improvement of humanity.

remedies must correspond. Probably all
suggestions at present viii be crude and

The Galloyys in Japan.

To the gallows is an easy transition. as
it is a natural conclusion. In secluded
part of the grounds at Ichigaya there is
a forbidding object, like great black
box, raised six feet from the earth at the
foot Of long incline cut in the grass. A
sloping walk of black boards leads into
the box at the left hand side. The con-
demned criminal is led up this and finds
himself inside upon the drop. The rope
is adjusted and the cap fitted, and then
at signal the bottom of the box falls
back. Thus the Japanese method is ex-
actly the opposite of our own, the official
spectators, including a couple of privi-
legged reporters, being spared the CHASTITY
details of the toilet on the scaffold, and
see nothing until an unacceptable corpse
is suddenly flung out and bangles before
them. Last year this gallows counted
seven for its tale of men.-Tokio Cor.
