Somebody must save money, and the
people who save it will be the capital
lists, and they will control the organiza
ton of industry and receive the larger
share of the profits. If the working
men will save their money, they may be
not only sharers Of profits, but owners
of stock and receivers of dividends.
And the workmen can save their money
if they will. 1t Is the only way in which
they can permanently and surely i'm
prove their condition. Legislative re-
forms, improved industrial methods,
may make the way easier for them, but
there IS no road to Comfort and indie
pendence, after all but the plain old
Path OF steady work and sober saving.
If the working people of this country
would save for the next five years the
money that they spend on beer and to-
bacco and base ball, they could control
a pretty large share OF the capital en-
ployed in the industries by which they
get a living, and they could turn the
dividends of this capital from the peck.
cts of the money lenders into their own.
There is no other way of checking the
congestion OF wealth and of promoting
its diffusion so expeditions, so certain
and so ben, ficent as this. We wish the
working people would try it.

Democrats who don't train with Mr..
German need not lay the fattering unc-
ton to their souls, that the recent de-
feat of MIR. Latrobe for the mayorality
nomination in Baltimore, means Senator
Germans defeat. Read between the
lines, the story seems to mean, that the
shrewd manager has unloaded political
weights that were heavily besetting him,
just at the proper time. The Baltimore
San denies this and says: at is the
fashion, we know, to charge those who
have been active in this movement with
direct collision with the ring bosses
whose conduct made the movement
necessary. Indeed, it is asserted that
the old party leaders have been called
into consultation to know how it is
best to get rid of them. But there is
no evidence whatever OF this, and the
contrary may safely be assumed from
the character of the men who have &C
lively participated" Nevertheless the
sequel will show whose hand is the con-
trolling one in Democratic State politics.

Belfast is the centre of the
world for Linen Hankerchiefs.
Fifteen years ago not a cotton
or a cotton-and-linen Handker-
chief was made in Belfast; now
more than half that are sent
out from that city are either
cotton or cotton mixed.
Cotton has crept into some
of the very fine things, but you
don't suspect it until the wear
and wash test shows the cheat.
For the person of taste who
wants a snow white Handker-
chief, soft and silky, one that
will not wash fuzzy or turn vel
low with use-Liueu.
We began by selling moth
ing but Linen as Linen. W.
keep to it. The flood of unior
goods has never reached our

Our contemporary of the Democrat
presented editorially to his readers last
week, what he doubtless thought an
imposing array of figures, intended to
show, that the rate of taxation under
Democratic rule in Cecil County had
been less in successive years than un-
der Republican Administrations, the in
ference which he would have the voters
of the County draw being, that it would
be to their pecunlary advantage to turn
down the present capable Board of Re-
publican Commissioners, and elect a
Democratic one in their stead. Now
if the Republicans had been in power
in the County for any considerable
number of years, and the Cecil Demo
cyat could, by an accurate and truthful
comparison of financial statements
taken from the Records of the Com
mlssioners Office show, that successive
Boards OF Republican Commissioners
had been reckless in expenditure, and
had not conducted the affairs of the
people carefully and economically, then
there might be some ground upon
which to righttully appeal to the people
for change in County Administration.
But we propose to prove in very
few words that just the opposite is the
case-and-to use slang phrase, that
the boot is altogether on the other
foot.
For the past twenty.three years with the
exception of the last twenty one months,
the Democratic Party has been Inin
terruptedly in power IN the County. In
the fall of 1887, In the face of an un,
doubted standing Democratic majority
OF at least three hundred, on any ques-
ton of purely party character, the
people of the County turned down the
Democratic Party, and elected the
present Board of County Commission
ers. They did this as the result of
non-partizan conviction, that it was to
their pecuniary interest to do so. Be.
cause they believed, that their monies
yearly collected as taxes were being
carelessly expended, and that while the
rate of taxation was gradually growing
higher, their burden of county lndebt-
edness was correspondingly increasing.
This condition of County affairs was
made plain, by the early experience of
the present Board of Commissioners.
Upon assuming the duties OF their
office, they, as good business men made
a careful investigation of the condition
of the County finances, and found that
they had inherited an Indebtedness
from former Democratic Boards of just
s7a, 3o6.oI, forty five thousands OF

While our amiable contemporary of
the Cecil Democrat is valnly endeavor.
ing to give the candidates of his party
little campaign boost, we respectfully
call his attention to a class of figures
which we think are equally healthy
reading for all classes of tax payers in
Cecil County. Two years ago these
same taxpayers elected the present
Board OF Republican County Commits
sioners by an average majority of 212
votes, although but two years previously
in IS85-they had elected a Demo
cratic Board, Messrs. Desha1e. Cooley
and Griffith, by more emphatic ma
jorlty of 400 votes. This change IN SEN
timent was brought about by preva
lent opinion that the Republican nomi-
nees were men better qualified by bus
mess education and experience to dis
charge the duties OF a public office,
which duties were of purely bust
ness character, and the belief that a
more economical and less partizan ad-
ministration of the county affairs could
be secured by their election. Our
present purpose is to show that the
present board has not disappointed
public expectation and that they &C
cepted this public trust in the spirit in
which it was rendered them. Now we
know no better account in the office of
the County Commissioners by which to
judge of the character OF the incum
bents of that office than the per diem
and mileage account. A little compar-
ison of these accounts with three sue
cessive Boards OF County Commission
ers may possibly be profitable reading
for our taxpayers in making up their
ballots to be cast in November next.
In 1883 the voters of this county elected
Democratic board in the persons Of
Messrs. Seminar, Potter and Pierson.
Their per diem and mileage service
cost the taxpayers in two years as
follows:
