A Friend of Brown.

MEssRs. EDIToRs: We all recognize the
fact that the time is rapidly approaching when
the people of Maryland will have to select a
successor to Gov. jackson. The object of the
people will undoubtedly be ito choose the
right sort of a man." Now a diversity Of
opinion may arise as to what constitutes the
right sort of a man. Certainly the Demo
cratic party wants a true and tried man-one
they can trust under any emergency that may
exist. They want one, old or young, that has
travelled thus far in the front ranks OF the
party. One who has not been knocked and
buffeted around by every alleged reform craze,
but who has stood firm and ever proven ready
to stand by the party and its nominees. One
who has never intruded himself upon the
conventions or business meetings when not
there as a delegate to control its actions, or
work up a selfish boom for an individual
without comforting with his party. One who
has worked and voted solidly. One who rep
resents the greatest of all interests in our
state, that of agriculture. We have tried
lawyers, lumbermen and others, and now we
think the time has arrived to select as our
standard bearer one who is personally iden-
titled with this great national industry. One
who is identified with all the financial interests
of his state, and who has youth enough and
mental vigor sufficient to keep pace with the
demands of the times in his state. One who
has thoroughly successful record as a Dem
ocrat and as a worker for the party, with just
enough experience as an official Of the party
to satisfy the people that he was and will be
| a success.
Such man is Hon. Frank Brown, of Car
roll county. A man whom the people OF
Carroll love to honor, and one whose integ-
rity of character politically, officially, socially,
morally and financially, stands forth on the
pages of his state history as clear as Al pine
snow. Who that knows Mr.. Brown dares to
gainsay this statement? Not one. Certainly
no man who is acquainted with his history.
Some have urged the objection to Mr..
Brown that he is too young to aspire to the
honor of chief executive of his state. The
glaring fact meets such an objection that Mr..
Browns friends, or the President of the
United States, have failed as yet to place him
in a position that he was not equal to. Ii
every position of public trust in which he la:
been placed he has come up to the full measure
of success. As an official appointed by Mr.
Cleveland he had patronage not very muci
less in numbers than he would have as thu
executive of the state. The people of Balti
more had greater mail facilities under thu
administration of Frank Brown than they eve
had under any postmaster of which their city
can boast. These are substantial facts which
only mere partisan or disappointed othc,
seeker would deny.
Carroll county is solid for Frank Brown 70
Governor of Maryland in 1892, and wants Blu
the opportunity to prove it, which they full
expect to have at the polls in November
1891. CARROLL COUNTY.

Upon the suggestion of the Baltimore
Ne,cs. seconded almost unanimously by
Democrats and by many Republicans, that
Senator German be given a banquet in
honor of his mastery management by
which the Force bill was defeated, a COM
mittee has taken the matter in charge,
and have under consideration the most
suitable way of expressing gratitude of the
people to the Maryland Senator for the
fidelity with which he has discharged his
duty as the leader in the contest. A
banquet would be the most suitable man
ncr, aud many prominent Democrats from
other States would no doubt like to join
in the demonstration.

In endeavors to secure the Worlds Fair
the Windy City promised too much, and
it finds it has undertaken more than it can
perform. The plan of the exhibition is too
elaborate for the purse and the enterprise
is weighted with heavy salaries, and hamp-
pered with politics and speculative schemes,
The directors say that it will require fifteen
millions of dollars to carry out their plans,
and so far less than ten millions are in sight,
and some of this can only be obtained by
suing delinquent stockholders.

Cleveland and Hill.

Cleveland and Hill, once associated as
Governor and Lieutenant Governor of New
York, have drifted apart in the past two
or three years, owing, mostly, to the antag-
onisms of their respective adherents. To
insure victory in 1892, it was essential that
the Democratic party in New York should
be united, and to bring Cleveland and Hill
together was the first and most important
step. This was accomplished last Saturday
night. when both attended dinner given
by State Senator William l.. Brown, at the
Manhattan Clubhouse. In their speeches,
Cleveland commended Gov. Hills course
as Governor, and predicted more laurels in
the United States Senate, and Gov. Hill
passed many compliments upon the ex'
President. After dinner the two leaders
had Il pleasant chat together, and the meet
ing is hailed with much satisfaction every
where.

Argument was made at Towson last
Saturday, before Judges Fowler and Burke
for a new trial in the Archer case. The
jury rendered verdict, it will be remem-
bercd, for S60,000 If the bondsmen are
liable at all, they are liable for the whole
amount, some S12O,0OO, and the verdict
seems to have been a compromise affair.
Only one suit has been tried, that against
the bondsmen of 1886, who are liable, I'M
der the courts decision until Archer re-
bonded. which was in November, 1889.

The pension appropriation bill, just
passed by the Senate, carries Sl33, l73,OS5
for pensions; 81 ,5O4, 900 for fees and ex-
pcnses of examining surgeons; $4,000 for
salaries of eighteen pension agents, and
$4,000 for clerk hire, making a total of
over one hundred and thirty-fve millions
of dollars. And, as large as this sum is,
Senator Allison, in charge of the bill, adj
mitted that this might not be enough by
from five to ten millions There is one
redceming feature Of the bill, the Cock
rell amendment-that no person in the
army or navy, either in the active service
or on the retired list, shall hereafter be
allowed or be paid a pension. 1t ought to
have included every person earning sal
airy in the public service, in any branch.

If oyster planting is not fostered and
protected by the laws of our waters, there
will soon be no oysters in the State. Let
the farmers living upon the water unite
and dredge out their coves and inlets, turn
ing the mud into rich fertilizer. The
strength of the hills and headlanls lies in
the bottoms of the coves, and may be util-
lied to great profit upon the crops. The
coves can thus be prepared for profitable
planting, and the mud which is now too
deep for the oyster, may be made rich

At Homer, Louisiana, on Saturday night,
mob battered hole in the Jail and six
men went through the passage to kill Link
/ Waggoner, desperate. As soon as Link
found the men were after him, he opened
fire with two revolvers Two of the six
men were wounded in the arms. 1t seems
that Waggoner had not been placed in a
cell and did his shooting from the corridor,
lodging in different apartments. In try
ing to pull open the door of fellow-pris
oner's cell, the latter caught the door with
one hand to keep him out, when Waggoner
drew knife and cut off his fingers. The
sheriff says when placed in Jail he was
searched and no weapons were found about
him, and it is supposed his friends furnished
him with arms.

Department, held on the above date, the
following was unanimously adopted:

scarcely gotten warm in the gubernatorial
chair before was presented to him for his
signature resolution directing Senators
Cameron and Quay to vote for the Force
bill. The Governor promptly vetoed the
measure, and in his message returning the
resolution said the Force bill ''trenehes on
the principle of sovereignty, which is the
essence of our free government" and told
the Legislature that an overwhelming ma
jority of the people of the whole country,
including Pennsylvania, were opposed to
the passage of the bill.

NELLIE LEWIS CARNATION.
The latest and one of the best novelties for
1891 is an elegant Carnation, growing on long
stems, free bloomer with large flowers, of
an exqisite shade of pink, something entirely
different from anything in Carnations. This
flower is destined to become great favorite
among the norlSts, as the ladleS pr re it very
highly for corsage bouquets and decorative
purposes generally. The endorsement of the
old firm of James Wick, Rochester, N. Y,
who introduce this plant, is enough to assure
the public that it is all they claim for it. The
price is only so cents each, three for 81 rs,
six for ST. %, dozen 81; but better way would
be to send 10 cents for Vicks Floral Guide,
and the 10 cents can be deducted from the
first order forwarded for seeds. No lover of
a fine plant or garden can afford to be without
a copy. 1t is an elegant book of over 100
pages, SIx104 inches, beautiful colored
illustrations of Sunrise Amaranthus, Hydran-
gea and Potatoes. Instructions for planting,
cultivating, &c. Full list of everything that
can be desired in the way of Vegetable and
Flower Seeds, Plants, Bulbs, &C. Also full
particulars regarding the cash prizes of 81, 200
and 5000. The novelties have been teste d
and found worthy of cultivation
