"MR. SMITH owes his nomination
to the belief that he could SOW
treason enough in the Democratic
ranks to insure his election. 1t was
for this corrupt and degraded pur-
pose, that the Republic N conven-
ton abandoned principle and be-
trayed a gallant soldier. "-Cecil
Democrat.
The above is choice specimen of
campaign literature as culled from
the columns of our contemporary.
The Indignation which can stomach
the faint of the bargain that vitiated
the action OF the recent so called
Democratic convention, is Of too
virtuous type, either for comment
or criticism.

If that Eighth district Crothers-
Graham bargain had not been made,
and the people OF that district
had had the privilege granted them
of saying who should represent them
in the recent so called Democratic
convention, Mr.. Daniel Bratton
would have been in a far different
position before that convention, and
might have been its candidate for
Clerk.
That bargain shut him out.

Has your mind been a bit
foggy on the Baby Carriage
question? No need to have
been ifyou know much of such
goods. But very likely you
don't know. Now is your
time. Even the eyes of care
lessness cannot fail to see how
marvelously cheap-how near
to half the round-town prices,
in fact-are these three grades
of Baby Carriages.
$3.75, So and $50.
These are the prices. 81,

nearly in chime with the regu-
