The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1889-03-02


The Washington Sunday Gazette, indepen-
dent Republican, wants an extra session TO
settle the tariff question, also on account Of
the continually accommodating surplus. ltsags
I'VE are collecting every day in excess Of
the ordinary expenses of the Government
over 81 ,Ooe, 900. This money goes into the
Treasury, is locked up in its vaults and is re-
tired from circulation. This causes con.
traction Of the currency, a scarcity Of the CIR
ealating medium and the ruin and depression
which always results when there is TOO little
money per capita changing hands. Hereto
fore the Secretary Of the Treasury has given
relief BY buying called bonds, but this class
Of bonds has been exhausted, aud there is
nothing left but to buy bonds before maturity
AT very heavy premium
These bonds now command premium Of
SIS, and should the Treasury Department go
into the market as purchaser Of It's own
securities financiers believe that the premium
will reach $50. Would any Secretary dare to
pay snch premium
This is Democratic ground. Mr. Cleveland
said all this, and more, in his message 70
Congress. And yet the Republicans opposed
the touching of the tariff, and took ground
against it in their national platform. They
preferred to repeal the entire revenue system
to touching what they called their system OF
protection. Hence nothing was done.
Later accounts say there win be no extra

The New States.

The political effect of the admission Of the
four new states, North Dakota, South Dakota,
Montana and Washington, will be, the Repub-
licans believe, to strengthen them in Congress
and in the Electoral College. South Dakota
is Republican, and will have four electoral
votes. North Dakota, Montana and Wash
ington will cast three electoral votes each,
making the total addition to the electoral col
lege thirteen. Montana and Washington were
Democratic from 1884 to 1888, but in the
latter year both elected Republican represen-
tativcs. North Dakota is credited to the Re
publican column, but the census of 1880 will
supply basis for new apportonment, which
may spoil calculations, and result IN grlevous
disappointment to the Republicans. The eff
feet upon Congress will be to increase the
membership of the Senate from 76 to 81; of
the House from 325 to $50. The number OF
electoral votes will be increased, on the pres
ent apportionment, from +Ol to Ala. In the
Fifty-irst Congress the Senate will consist
until the four new States are represeuted-of
so Republicans and 81 Democrats, the same
division as that which now exists. OF the
eight new Senators 6, it is assumed, will fall
to the Republicans and > to the Democrats,
increasing the Republican majority from two
to six. This increase will probably become
available by the time of the opening of the
regular session next December. In the House
the Republican majority will be strengthened,
Republicans assert, by five votes, all the new
States having given Republican majoriiies in
November.
The four new States will bring an area
about equal to that of Maine, New Hampshire,
Vermont, Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Con
necticut, New York, New Jersey. Pennsyl-
vania, Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West
Virginia, Ohio, Kentucky, aud Indiana COM
bined 1t is an area three times as great as
the British Islands, more than three times as
great as Italy, more than hundred aud fifty
thousand square miles in excess Of Germany.
A very thriving area 1t all is, too, which will
soon add to the census wondreHs figures OF
products and population as well as Of acres.

Senate. We are, of course, TO have masses

Il has required nearly ten years for the
publication Of the successive tones Of the last
census; but the Census Bureau has given the
assurance that the statistics taken next year
will all be in print in 1892. The last census

the promises made, viii give US not more than

The Origin OF the Name of Canada.

MEssRs. EDIroEs-H Having noticed in the last issue
OF the ADVOCATE a small article giving the meaning
Of the word Canada, and its derivation tracing its
source from the PorJugese language There is some
dispute about the origin Of the word, some tracing

ITO THE PUBLIC.

The card of John H. Chew, which appeared
in the county papers of last week, so far as it
pretends to be, or is designed to be, defence
against the unsavory charges under which he
labors. needs and shall receive no reply. It
may be dismissed from further considera-
ton by comparing it to the famous protest
made by criminal against the verdict of the
jury which convicted him of felony. ut is
hard, he said, ''to be condemned merely
because three or four witnesses swore they
saw me commit the offense, when / can pro-
duce fifty who didn't see me do it, But the
signers of Mr.. Chew's card have seen fit to
denounce as malicious sanderers and black
mailers those who heard the ecidence against
him, including has oicn confession, and who in
the best interest Of the church, and out of re-
spect for common decency, were compelled
By that erideRce to expel him from member
ship and depose him from his office. This is
the only part of the Chez card which needs
any reply, and that which we give is briefly
this If Mr.. Chew has been slandered, a vim
dication Of his spotless character and proper
damages can readily be obtained by a civil
suit from Carroll county jury. If an attempt
has been made to exercise the arts of the
blackmailer upon him, he has only to make that
fact clear to cur courts, and the criminal law
will soon relieve him of his tormentors We
leave this injured and innocent victim to
choose between these two methods. We are
rather disposed to urge him to the test, if his
conscience will give him the necessary cour-
age, which we fear it will not. The law once
stood that conviction could only follow on
the testimony of two or three witnesses, but
in this instance we are inclined to believe that
Mr. Chew would be convicted out of the
mouth of only one ,oitRess.

He has been obliged to cut down his indul-

He smokes nothing but imported cigars.
