A neartle.s wretch.

The editor OF ihe Gazette is 10 dan
der of getting scorched. Just listen
to him:
ct is pity that some women have
so little appreciation OF home and It's
pleasures that they are ever raising the
cry OF equal rights with men. As
general thing these women. poor
things, are childless creatures who do
not know the honor and the gentle
emotions which the little mother pro-
duees in the breast of women who are
raising up our future men of church
aud state. The less grasshopper legis-
lation in Arizona the better"

ANOTHER VERSION.
The Chinese Exclusion Act
Nullified if it IS a
Correct One.

A decision has just been rendered
by district U. S. judge of Michigan
which, if it holds good will practi-
cally nullify the Chinese exclusion
act.
The original decision was made that
g Chinsman caught coming int, this
country should be returned to China.
A case came up in Detroit wherein a
Chinaman was ordered back to China
who had crossed from Canada. Til,
Chinamau was brought before tn,
court on q writ Of habeas corpus anG
the judge decided that the Chinamau
WAS wrongfully held and should be re
turned 10 Canada.
The most startling part of the pro-
ceedings is contained in the following
later dispatch from Washington:
acting Secretary Spaulling today
directed the collector at Detroit, Mich
to return 10 Canada the Chinaman
whom United States District Judge
Swan yesterday decided TO have come
from Canada. This decision the ex-
act text of which was unknown, yes
terdsy by the treasury department has
created some confusion as il oyerturns
the practice of the department and
the opinion of the Attorney General
on the meaning Of the phrs=e, ~ hence
he came"

communication headed "a Friend of Hodges
The writer started off with the horrors of the
Force BILL and spoke of the probability of its pas
sage. We have no fears of the passage of any bill
so damaging to the interests of the whole people
Now, Messrs. Editors we do not want man for
Governor only in the interest of the business OF
Baltimore. We want man that will take care Of
the farmers and all laboring men as we'll Every
place that we see people of both classes they are
anxious for Mr.. Brown to be nominated and elected
Governor of Maryland. ] have talked to Rcpubli-
cans. and they readily say any man can vote for
Mr.. Brown, knowing that he would be the man for
the whole people. He would favor equal taxation
that is what we want Mr. Hodges friend speaks
of Mr.. Browns youth. Age does not fit a man for a
responsible position. If Mr.. Brown were willing to
wait four eight years we are not willing for him
to do so. The time has come for him to serve the
people of Maryland their chief officer at the helm
of the ship of state We are not here to abuse the
Republican party. Their interests ours, and our
hearts will always be warm for the six that voted
to lay aside those obnoxious bills in the Senate.
Carroll county asks her sister counties and the
city of Baltimore not to forget that we have
had Governor from Carroll We have helped to
elect the men who have been nominated by a Dem
ocratic convention. We consider county the
banner county, and offer to the people of Maryland
the Hon. Frank Brown one of Carrols noblest sons;
one who is a staunch Democrat of the jefferson
school; one who has always stood by his party and
done his whole duty.
The time has come when the agricultural inter
ests of the people must be improved or ruin will
come upon the farmer, and that will bring about a
state of affairs that none wish to see We are down
enough already. Give us Mr.. Brown as our candi-
date and there will be enthusiasm in our state
than there has been for years.
