ing: 'Not until Friday noon did the sun
cease its franks of hide and seek behind the
clouds. With our track full four seconds
slow, Uncle Sam, a 2-year-old by Louis
Napoleon, on the 10th inst. stepped off a
mile in 2:46, I'd and 4th quarters in Al
seconds. This was the fourth mile and the
hrst one this season, the colt was ever given
at speed, and the manner in which he did it
makes him bang up with the 2-year-olds
that are to contest for the rich stakes of the
year. Did you ever hear of Louis Napol-
con coming early? Well, here is one, and
he is coming at record killing pace"
VIM. Saver reports that his mare Ella s.
has dropped horse colt. The colt is one Of
the richest bred youngsters in Michigan.

TEE coming summer promises to
be lively with ambitious politicians
We have Governor, a United
States Senator, legislature, clerk
OF the Court of Appeals, two judges
and whole host of smaller officials.
For Governor, Brown and Hodges
are at present the most prominent.
Brown il the favorite with the coun
ties and his friends claim they can
divide the city with Hodges. II
this be correct Brown will be tri-
umphantly nominated. Senator
German Of course expects to be his
own successor.
The Republicans will nominate
Judge Stone Of Charles county,
without doubt, as he is the most
available man; but of course they do
not expect to elect him.
DR.. Geo. Wells, of this county is
looming up for Clerk to the Court
Of Appeals, and his chances for the
nomination is are very fair. He viii
make most acceptable candidate

Going Into Politics.

Politics is getting into a "mlEed
muddle," and the old parties are all
at sea. At meeting Of the Knights
OF Labor held in Baltimore last
night, it was decided to issue call
for a conference in Baltimore city
OF reform and labor organizations
in Maryland to take political action.
The call is to include the Farmers
Alliance branches, and the confer
ence, which is to meet early in 1891
is to attempt to reach an agreement
on legislation that shall be demand
ed. Local Assembly No. $3.50,
started the movement by PROPOSE
tion to assemble the bodies TO con-
slider amendments to the prest mt
election and registration laws OF
Maryland. This purpose is also in
clnded in the work mapped out.
Local Assembly 1888 presented q
resolution asking for tho abolition
OF laws for the collection of private
debts. The assembly passed reso-
lutions censuring the Governor and
the State printer because, as alleged
the law was not carried out with
regard to printing tho State labor
statistician's report, and the Dis
trict Assembly could not procure a
copy OF the report. 1t seems to be
the present intention of these labor
organizations to deal mainly with
State laws, but when they have en-
tered the political arena. it is more
than probable that they will take =
hand in national politics.
