High License system the character of the

The Hsgerstown Mail, speaking ot

The Hsgerstown Mail, speaking of
election laws has the following to say:
:. "The Election Law framed BY Mr..
James Alfred Pearce, who was desig.
mated by the Democratic convention
three years ago to perform that service,
embodies the main features of the
Australian system and is pronouncedby
competent judges to be the best elec:
ton law which has yet been framed.
That our last legislature should have
broken faith and failed to pass this
bill was disaster to the Democratic
party and melted many good Demo
Gratis to revolt" -.
Now the fact is Mr.. James Alfred
Pearce did not "frame" any election
law at all. The printed copy Of an
election bill, which he presented to the
Legislature last session, was sn exact
copy throughout, with few inmate
rial alterations. Of the Illinois elec.
tion Law for cities and towns. II our
contemporary will take the trouble to
refer to the codifisl laws Of that State,
it will 6nd that this is true; aud it will
find also that the law was only passed
in that State to apply to cities and
incorporated towns and was only
to operate in such towns Of that
character ~ should BY a popular
sote adopt 1t. The same may Be said
Of the bills presented BY Gov. Whyte
and by the Republican "Reform
League" AL were copies, with slight
and generally bad alterations, from the
Law in question. When it ia consid-
that the rural districts of Maryland
we're asked to adopt this complicated
and very expensive law, which in the
rich and populous West where it origi-
mated, was not enforced in the rural
districts, it will be understood that
the last Legislature showed its good
sense in ignoring the bill altogether.
We may need . new election Law, but
for heavens sake do not give rs such
. senseless and complicated piece of
incongruities - were the bills in ques-
