BLAINE.


We take the following editorial paragraphs
from recent issue of the Sunday Gazette-
a stalwart Republican paper published in
Washington City and advocating the election
of Harrison and Morton. Read 'em-they
are rich:
The Stalwarts will surely drop out unless
Blaine goes to the rear.
Does Blaine own the Republican party?
Not by large majority.
Hill is nominated for the goyernorship of
New York, and the probabilities are that he
will be elected.
Matt Quay and other Blaineites don't seem
to consider that Levi P. Morton is entitled to
decent treatment.
The political problem in New York cannot
be solved until the value of the unknown fac
tor, Prohibition, is known.
We wonder if General Harrison realizes
that he and not James G. Blaine is the Re-
publican candidate for the Presidency?
A little more of Harrison and not so much
of Blaine, is what the G.. o. p. needs-and
needs badly-in the present campaign.
FRY Fat Fosters begging circular is
another evidence of the ineticiency and mis-
management of the Republican National Ex-
ecutive Committee under the control of Matt
Quay and other Blaineites.
There is no denying the fact that there is n
serious row in the Republican camp, and un
less the Blaineites step at once to the rear
Grover Cleveland will be the next President
of the United States. This is not pleasant
news to the Republicans, but it's true all the
same.
There are enough Republicans in the
North opposed to Blaine first, last and all
the time, who will vote for Cleveland if Blaine
is kept at the front as he is now, and whose
votes will give Cleveland Connecticut, New
York, New Jersey, Michigan, Indiana, and
probably Illinois and Wisconsin.
This is no time for hero worship, especially
when the hero is found upon examination to
be below the measurement not only of heroes
but of honest manhood. If the Republican
party cannot succeed without making little
God on wheels of Jim Blaine then it ought TO
be and will be damned. ,...-----
Too much Blaine and too little Harrison in
this campaign. Come, General, and assert
Yourself Make the Blaineites take a back
seat Even if you are defeated thereby, it is
better, far better to be beaten while fighting
an honest fight for principle than to be victor
ious by surrendering honor, truth and honest
manhood to INSCRIPTIONS and irredeemable
corruption

Another Republican Circular.

Several gentlemen in Westminster have
received the following circular. As they were
Democrats the National Republican Commit
tee will not receive any contribution from
them. After long preamble the circular
says:
'You can be of the greatest service if you
will make it your personal business to secure
one or more subscriptions of 81 each from
your friends and acquaintances. We urge
this upon you as patriotic duty and one OF
vital importance, in order to meet the wants
of this expensive campaign, and we ask you
to do it under specific authority from the
National Republican Committee. There is
no man who has dollar who is not directly
interested in the success of the Republican
marty. If YOU point out to him the fact that
YOU are acting by request Of the Republican
League of the United States, which In turn is
carrying out the directions of the Republican
National Committee, because such action is
necessary to insure success, you will certainly
get dollar. If you think that you cannon
get it, conclude it is not necessary, or believe
some local necessity arises greater than that
of the means to fight the Democrats in the
doubtful States, and do not try, Of course you
will not get it, nor will we. DO not lay this
aside for future action, but act at once.
We will send you more blanks if you wish
them" The circular is signed by Jos. L.
Foster as president, and VIM. W. Dudley,
chairman OF the campaign committee. In
closed with the circular is a receipt IN which
it is stated that every subscriber of dollar is
entitled to a souvenir of the league.

RSS~ Two weeks from next Tuesday is cleo
ton day. Every Democrat in Carroll should
be at the polls, and arrangements to that end
should be made speedily. There is no time
for delay. Maryland is safe for Cleveland and
Thurman, and there is no question about the
election of Col. Herman Stump, but the State
should give as large majority as possible in
order to assist in giving Republicanism its
final blow. If the party is defeated this year
by good electoral and popular majority there
will be no more national Republican party.
Marylanders want to be in a position to rejoice
with the Democracy of the balance of the
Union, and Carroll must aid in swelling the
State vote. Prepare, Democrats, to have every
Democratic voter in the county at the polls on
the 9th of November.

speech spoke of the Sugar Trust, and re-iter-
ated the assertion of Senator Allison that Mr..
Havemyer went before the Ways and Means
Committee and had the schedule fixed so as
to leave profit of Sc, 600, 900 annually to the
trust. The attention of Hon. Roger Q. Mills,
Chairman of the House Ways and Means
Committee, was called to Blaine's speech,
and he replied, under date of October 18th,
as follows:
''Mr. Havemyer never appeared before the
Ways and Means Committee at all. He never
obtained any arrangement by which Sc, 000,-
900 was put in the hands of the sugar trust.
The trust toas formed Under the eriSting tariff
made By the Republican party in 1888, and
when the bill, recently passed by the House,
was laid before the Ways and Means Com
mittee for its action, ece1y one Of the fire Re
publican members of that Committee roted to
strike ont the reduction 'ce proposed and con-
fRuethe tariff rates under ichich the trust cdS
JOTmed.f
The Senate substitute for The Mills bill
makes cut of 50 per cent from the present
tax on sugar, but the cut is on the ra,0 mate
rial, while the tax on refined sugar is not cut
in like proportion, and the profits under
the Senate substitute is more favorable TO the
Sugar Trust than is the Mills bill.
So much for falsehood No. 3.

Polygamy has been cancer on the body
polite for many years. The Grand Old
Party constituted itself the special and i'm
placable enemy to Mormonism, and in 1862
passed law providing for forfeitures of all
the property of the Mormon Church, and the
Edmunds act of 1882 prohibited polyga my,
bigamy, and unlawful cohabitation. Yet up
to the advent of the Cleveland Administra-
ton only six suits were brought under these
acts, one in 1875, one in 1881, and four in
1884. What has been the Democratic record?
Under these two acts $50 persons have been
separately tried and convicted; $4,000 of
fines and forfeitures inflicted and collected,
and nearly 200 criminal prosecutions are
pending. The Mormon Church property,
amounting to over 100000, has been seized
and receiver appointed, and final decree
is soon expected to be rendered. The Nor
mons, too, are abandoning their polygamous
habits or are emigrating to Mexico. Repub-
licans promised; Democrats acted.
