The Baltimore Sunday Nescs Of
March 22od, instant, in an article
upon the political situation in the 7th
Judicial Circuit. re-published in our
local columns. makes some remarkable
statements as to the relative number
of white and colored voters of the
counties constituting this Judicial Cir
cult. The NesOs states that in Charles
county the blacks exceed the whites
to the number of 1910, whilst in
Prince Georges county the latter ex.
coed the former to the number Of
$500. The registered vote-not pop.
ulation as returned by the Federal
Census-is the proper quantity to fig
ure on. The registration lists Of
these counties show that, in 1890, the
registered vote of Charles, was, white,
1926, colored, 1854; Prince Georges,
white, 1872, colored, 23l2. showing q
majority Of white voters in Charles
of 70. and in Prince George of 1860.
We would advise the political editor
Of the Nesrs to consult the Sun A.
ma'aac when he next essays to instruct
his readers as to Southern Maryland's
vote.

OUR BALTIMORE LETTER.
BALTIMORE, March %.

BALTIMORE, March %.
The sensation of last week was The
disclosure of the defalcation of Viii.
liam A Wisong, treasurer of the Poor
Association. 1t was a sad case and
Mr.. Wisong's friends came to his res.
cue. It was hard TO believe the story
at first. 1t seemed impossible that a
man 80 highly esteemed would rob
the Poor Association and men nearly
starving all around him. Yet he used
nearly $4,000 of the funds entrusted
to his keeping.
All big politicians were in the city
last Tuesday, including Senator Cor
man. They say they have not agreed
upon a candidate for Governor but
will await to see the strength of the
several aspirants. It looks as if this
will be peoples campaign and that
they will name their own candidates.
1t is right too that this should be 90.
We have had a sulfeit Of machine.
made officers. Il is q good time now
for the agricultural element to take q
hand in the game and play it for the
good Of themselves aud Of the whole
people. The unwise legislation of
the Republican party in the Fifty
First Congress and it's severe rebuke
by the people should impel the Dem.
ocratic party to be careful in the Sc
lection of candidates for the COM
ing campaign. A mistake might
prove fatal and like Kansas, in turn
ing down Ingalls, and electina "Sock-
less" Simpson to the United States
Congress, Maryland might administer
. rebuke to the powers behind the
throne. Why did Simpson. Sen

men are compelling men like him to
leave the peaceful svocation of a far
mer's life and take the field and To-
rum, the platform and the stump. to
save from ruin and destruction the
noblest element of this country's pros
perity and power. Agriculture is the
foundation upon which rest the pill.

Agriculturists are the most eonser.
vative Of our people. hence. the Glow
but sure reaction against legislation
in behalf of favored interests. They
are the most intelligent of our voters.
They constitute the largest body of
voters, hence it would be wise for ex-

warning in time and change their pol.
