The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1891-11-07

The Carrolltonian has endeavored to con-
duct this campaign upon the high plane where
Col. McKellip in his speech accepting the
nomination for Clerk of the Court, said he
would place it-CaITolfoHidR, Oct. 81.
This briarean-handed, scptuagesimal
sheet, owned by seventy stockholders, pay
ing, it alleges, taxes on "SS00,000 worth
of property, seems to have no conception
of what high plane is in party cam
paign. Its issue of last Saturday gives
ample proof of this fact. 1t teens with
malicious ialsehoods. drags before the pub
lie the names Of private citizens not con-
nected with the canvass, and rovels in gross
personalities. We exhonerate the nomi-
nal editor from full responsibility for this
state of things, Tor we happen to know that
he demonstrated against it, and this knowl-
edge comes to US through an entirely dis
interested channel. But standing in the
position of editor he has yielded to those
who have not only no conception of the
singh plane" above referred to, but of the
proprieties of journalism or of the instincts
of gentlemen. The course of the Car
rolitonian is believed by some intelligent
members of its own party to be responsible,
in some degree, for the disastrous termina-
ton of the campaign. The warning was
uttered, but not needed, that its offensive
personalities would recoil upon its own
party, shocking as they were to the moral
sense and better judgment Of those who
had been reared in a different school and
stood upon "higher plane than that Of
SANDER aud vituperation. Its managers
will yet discover that they have nothing to
gain but all to lose by such course. lie
gitimate journalism is not for the ventila-
ton of pent-up spleen, or the qualification
of cowardly n.alignity that dares not attack
except from ambush.

The Carrolltonian

The ADVOCATE has paid little or no at
tention to the GuroHtoaian in the recent
campaign, or at any other time, and Its
columns have rarely been glanced at in
this office, first, because it is only an anna
teur paper; second, because its circulation
is so limited but few persons see 1t; and
third. because the articles of its contribu-
tors are usually too reckless and ridiculous
to affect sensible men.
For two or three weeks before the cleo
ton the paper was handed around gratuit-
ously to nearly everybody who would take
one, among whom were a number of Dem
ocrats. Our attention was called to the
contents of the last issue. In it we OBJ
served the stale falsehood that most Of the
Vanderford family were in Canada during
the war; another falsehood about some one
of the staff being suspected of intidelity
toward some ticket; estimates about county
printing, when no one connected with the
concern, in any capacity, from roller-boy to
the most accomplished of the reckless scrib-
blers, is competent to give an opinion worth
anything concerning the cost of printing
of any kind; some senseless talk upon the
ingratitude of a Democratic nominee; a
disrespectful allusion to prominent Demo
cratic leader now in his 8lst year, and
much more stuff of the same sort.
Such alleged journalism; such disreputa
bic campaigning; such falsehoods, stale, fiat
and insipid; such unnecessary and offensive
personalities have borne fruit in a sweeping
Democratic majority, and for the twenty
/ fifth consecutive time the voters of Carroll
have repudiated the self-set up Republican
leaders and spat upon their methods. AnC
yet ON the very page containing all thest
falsehoods, false figures, ridiculous esti
mates, offensive personalities, some one o
the scribblers has the impudence to say thu
CdTOdtOHim was averse to personalities
The paper has rarely been anything bu
personal, and its contributors seem incap
able of getting away from personalities
Their hostility to the Sentinel was its re
fusal to longer be sewer for their spleen
and bitterness toward respectable people
and the CdyroHtoniun was established fo
their especial delight. 1t is despised by
most people, and in spite of its seventy
millionaire stockholders it is pauper OF
the community, for if its patronage is sufi
cent to meet the small cost of its publica
ton, it is mostly begged, like the irrespon
sible tramp obtains his subsistence as he
foots it about the country. Some scribblel
even speaks Of the price the ADVOCATE
will get for publishing the constitutions
amendments, when the Cu7otLonidn viii
get the same. The price offered the AID
vOcATE was about our regular rates-tht
price offered the CuroHtoniaa would b.
dear for the whole establishment.

Hon. Frank I. Shaw's speech at the
Manchester Barbecue, synopsis of which
was published in the ADVOCATE last week,
must have borne good fruit. In speaking
of boss-rule, he said if he were Republi.
can he certainly would kick vigorously
against the incompetent management in
that party, that had been beaten at every
election since 1867. The Democratic
majority in this county is not over 300,
gel ON Tuesday it ran up to 436 on the
state ticket The result looks like some
Republicans had kicked against partial
tickets, the most of the nominees being put
up for trading purposes and the chief
political position being left vacant.

The Speakership.

The elections for 1891 being over, the
meeting of Congress and the Speakership
will be the absorbing topics of public in
terest for the next few weeks.
The Democratic majority in the next
House is unprecedented, being more than
one hundred and forty, and for the first
time since the war Il majority of the Demo.
Gratis come from north of Mason and Dix
on's line.
The Speakership Of the House is ques.
ton much canvassed and as the first
Monday of December draws nearer the ill.,
terest increases. Among the more promi-
nent candidates are Mills of Texas, Crisp
of Georgia and Springer of Illinois. Some
months ago the ADVOCATE expressed a
preference for Mr.. Crisp, and all things
considered he is, in our Judgment, the best
equipped of the aspirants.
In the Fiitieth Congress the Speaker
and nearly all. the important committee
chairmanships were held by Southern mem
bers, and the fact was used with effect in
the election of 1888 against the Democratic
party. To avoid any sectional issues, as
well as to make acknowledgement of the
Democratic tidal wave that swept the up
per half Of the Union last year, the Speak
ership should be accorded to the upper
half. Hon. William NJ. Springer, of Hi
nois, is the only candidate from that sec
ton, or at least the most prominent, and
to him the distinction should be accorded
He has served number of terms in the
House of Representatives, is good parlia-
mentarian, man Of industry, of ability
and Of decision and firmness. In the last
Congress he stood up manfully against the
usurpations of Reed and his manufactured
majority and was one of the most active
opponents of the Force bill and the Nc
Kinley tax oppression.
Mr.. Crisp and Mr.. Mills will be more
valuable on the floor of the House than in
the Chair, and the Speakership honor
should be accorded to Mr.. Springer and to
Illinois, that last year, for the first time in
many years. elected Democrat to the
United States Senate and increased the
Democratic representation in the House of
Representatives from seven to fourteen.

The Election.

The election in Carroll as usual passed
off quietly, and rather full vote was
polled. As usual victory perched on the
Democratic banner, and the majority is
above the average.
In Baltimore the Democrats made nearly
a clean sweep, leaving the opposition but
two councilmen. one in each branch. The
majority in the city is the greatest for some
years.
In the state the Democrats carried every
county, except Garrett and Allegany.
Frank Browns majority is more than 30
900, majority far greater than since 1861,
before the colored citizens were enfran-
chised. Since 1867 the largest majority
given to a Democratic candidate for Gov
ernor was that cast for Hamilton, in 1879,
about $4,000 The Legislature will stand
on joint ballot 1913 Democrats, II opposi-
ton. The Senate will have only four Re
pubicans, who are holding-ovcr Senators.
In the House of Delegates there areBcCher
Republicans and three iusionists. Chief
Judge Briscoc, Democrat, carries his judi
cial circuit in Southern Maryland by over
1900 majority, while in the fourth cir
cult, in Western Maryland, Mr.. Stake, the
Republican candidate for associate Judge
is elected by over 600 majority. Mr.
Roberts was elected in Carroll, Howard and
Anne Arundel without opposition. The
vote on the constitutional amendments is
not fully known at this writing but all
but one are certainly carried.
In other states the chief interest centered
in the result in New York The result
there was regarded as indicative of the way
the state would 20 in 1892. and both sides
were on their metal The Democrats
carried the day by over $1,000 majority
and also the Legislature. In Massachu-
sets and Iowa the Democrats were sue
cesstul in these heretofore reliable Repub-
lican states. and in Ohio the Democrats,
while not successful, cut down the real Re-
publican majority about $4,000. Penn
sylvania GOT into the Republican fold again,
but the usual majority was not rolled up.
In New jersey and Virginia, where only
Legislatures were chosen, the Democrats
swept both states.

Volume Twenty-seyen.

The DEMooRATIc ADVOCATE begins
its twenty-seventh year with this issue.
During its existence its growth has been
steady. Its circulation is equaled by few
county Journals, and what is more its pat
ronage is all voluntary. The ADVOCATE
is not the most prosperous county journal,
however. It is printed on better paper,
and with better ink, than any paper in the
state, ans advertising rates are scarcely
more than half those charged in some
other counties of the state. In no county
are they less, and in only very few are
they as low.

Browns majority, 3O,156.
For the Democratic Advocate
Mr.. Geo. W. Albaugh.

Everybody who knows Mr.. George W.
Albaugh, knows that he has no political
ambitions, but because he was placed on the
Democratic Central Committee the Carroll
t0nidR has taken upon itself the task of ridi-
culing HIM and placing him in false position
by ascribing to him aspirations he does not
possess and falsely insinuating that he is in
league with Mr.. Grouse to eventually become
his successor as clerk. 1t would be expecting
too much of the politicians who run the Car
rolttoRiaR to expect them to realize how any.
body can do his duty to his party, when called
upon, or labor for the furtherance of princi
pie. They are in politics for what is in it.
in practical dollar and cents way. The
chief spirits connected with it have been
office holders and seekers after office ever
since they thrust themselves into prominence.
They are politicians for profit.
There is no gentleman in Westminster who
seeks prominence less than Mr. Albaugh.
He is a business man, public spirited citi
zen, the largest taxpayer in Westminster,
and has never sought an Office of any kind.
He has prohibited his friends-and he has
hosts of them throughout Carroll-from even
suggesting him for public position. All this
is well known, and yet because he has taken
some part in the recent campaign to further
the success of his party and its principles, at
the solicitation of his party, this CdrTolitoniaR
has undertaken to discredit his motives by
false accusations, by attempting to ridicule
him and applying to him nick names that are
neither respectful, smart nor witty, nor con-
ducive to Republican success, and which his
friends resent as unmerited and contempt
uous. Every decent citizen ought TO con
denim such warfare, and no doubt does.
Unrebuked any citizen is liable to such treat
ment from a journal whose aim seems to be
to drag down gentlemen whose public spirit,
independence and business success gives them
a prominence among their neighbors. Envy
is no doubt the handspring of this attack
upon him, as little souls cannot appreciate
anything ennobling or conceive that action is
based upon duty. FAIR Play.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1891-11-07

The Democrats could not reasonably
have expected to carry Ohio The defeat
of the Republicans there would have been
the death knell of the party, for Mckinley
and his tariff were Immediately involved in
the issues Of the canvass, and the reign of
Plutocracy would have been at an end.
Money alone kept Ohio from falling into
the hands Of the Democrats. The rich
manufacturers of the country who are fat
tening upon the tariff could not afford to
let Ohio go Democratic. But she will
come in '92.

Enjoying Their Annual Sport

The Democratic leaders have enjoyed
themselves as usual this tall, playing with
the Republican bosses. They have been
amused at their amateur tactics and conf
dent claims of success, and enjoyed their
disappointment when the returns came in on
Tuesday night and Wednesday as the re-
suits varied from their claims from % to
100 votes in each district, and their hopes
gradually faded away. They enjoyed
seeing the compaisant look OF victory dis
solve into that of disgust. 1t has ever
been thus for twenty odd years, and will
continue to be until the Republicans of
Carroll displace their leaders and drive out
faction, and put in command those who
know that abuse is not argument, that
reeklessness is not reason, that personalities
are offensive, that taxpayers are not fools
that partid tickets are demoralizing, that
efforts to elect few disgust the others
that the Iiepublican vote must be looked
after rather than to beg for votes among
Democrats.
Next spring, when the time comes Ii
select delegates to the National Conven.
ton, unless the leaders in the state and III
every county are displaced by the solid men
of the party, there will be witnessed such
a faction fight as was never before seen. II
will be a contest for mastery, not in tho
interest of the party, but for self-to be Oh
top for hoped-for Republican President
to gaze at and admire, and also to receive d
large and generous share of the ioaves and
fishes. Let Republicans cut this out fol
reference in April or May next, and see
how near our predictions are verified
