The Cecil Whig. [volume] (Elkton, Md.) 1841-current, 1891-11-21

DEMoCRATIC journals and the
Mugwump press in this country,
since the war cloud has arisen be
tween the United States and Chill,
have outvied the English press in
abuse of Minister Egan, and for the
simple reason that he is a Republl
can and aprotectionist, besides being
an Irishman. Mr.. Egan came to this
country, became an American cltl
zen and was honored with the APP
pointment of Minister to Chill which
position he held when the revolution
changed the administration of that
country, and he still holds it. But
opposed to him is the British press
and the Democratic press of this
country. Olher Irishmen have been
appointed TO responsible positions IN
this country by Democratic admins
tratlOnS, but no objections were
urged against them. But these Irish
appointees were Democrats, and the
English and Democratic press sup
ported them.
The difficulty with Mr.. Egan is
that he is a Republican and is
opposed to free trade. He opposed
British rule while he lived in Ireland
and when he came to this country
he continued to oppose British rule
by voting against free trade, and the
only consistent way he could do that
was to vote with the Republican
party, the only party in United
States opposed to free-trade.

THE Washington correspondent OF
the New York Times says "There
will be some curious things, it APP
pears, about the Crisp (speakership)
canvass. Maryland, it is understood,
will be tor Crisp, because Senator
German considers Crisp the proper
representative OF the Democratic
idea at this time. What does Mra
German take that idea to be? Is it
tariff reduction or is it sectional
protection ? The question is justified
by the make up of the Crisp list Of
delegates Maryland is for him be
cause German wishes it, or it is not
for him, and the truth remains to be
discovered. Senator German is a
New York SIN Democrat. and that
is about as near to being a protec
zionist as it is possible to be and
keep up with the Democratic pro-
cession. If tariff reform is to be the
issue of the Democratic party from
this time until the close of the elec
ton in 1892, the making of a speaker
at the dictation of German would
look like a bad break toward Ran
dallism and the restoration of the
defunct Randall wing"

Who would have thought during
the recent campaign when looking
into the innocent and beautiful face
of Prof McNulty, and listening to
the sweet notes that issued from his
canay-like throat, that the only and
original Frank Brown campaign
songster was really trying to sing
himself into a fat office under his
illustrious master the Governor elect.
And that too as gross place as
Fish Commissioner Ye gods and
little fishes, midst those sweet warb
lings, who would have thought it.

The War Department of the
German Empire has concluded its
experiments with American corn,
and has decided to recommend the
use by the army of bread made OF
equal proportions of corn and rye.
1t is believed that the Department
of the Interior will follow this ex-
ample. Hon. William Walter Phelps,
the American Minister to Germany,
anticipates that in consequence of
this decision the German markets
will be thrown open for the admis-
sion of many millions OF bushels Of
American grain.

ONE good result OF the elections
is to make free coinage of silver an
issue to be avoided hereafter, at
least in States east of the Mississippi
river. Using the war SMILES com.

we're in the nature Of skirmishes
preceding the battle of 1892, and the
results of those skirmishes are to
make the tariff the leading issue

THERE is at least one free trade
English journal that does not derive
much comfort from the result of the
recent elections in this country. In
commenting on them the London
Globe says: "They prove beyond a
doubt that there is a popullr reac-
ton in favor OF the Mckinley tariff
His triumph was the most striking
feature of the elections, but it is
doubtful if it was the most signlf-
cant. The Republican success in
other States can only mean that the
tariff has not been found to work so
badly as at first imagined. The
mischief wrought to British indus
tries will, moreover, help to con-
vince the American voter that it
must somehow be of good to himself.
We should thus make great mis-
take if we look too confidently for
Democratic triumph in 1892, and for
the abandonment of the prohibitive
dutieS.'

4 expected that
< the convention
last week in May or
IN June. A number of
.fe competing for the place,
sc most prominent being New
York, Cincinnati, Chicago, Omaha,
St Paul, Minneapolis and San Fran
cisco. New York and Chicago are
not making much effort, and seem to
be Indifferent about it. The most
active contestants will be Cincinnati,
Minneapolis, Omaha and San Fran
cisco, and these will be represented
at the meeting of the committee by
strong delegations. San Francisco
will offer the most liberal induce
ment, but the great distance of that
city from the Atlantic seab0ard is
likely 10 overcome the offer OF free
transportation and hotel accommo-
dations for the delegates, and
Chicago has given notice that no
special effort will be made in behalf
" of that city, as the Worlds Fair is
absorbing the undivided attention of
citizens. At the same time at

active campaign Chicago is not
likely to secure the convention with
SO many determined competitors.
Omaha and Minneapolis will be
there with strong delegations and
liberal offers, and there is a growing
belief that one OF these two cities
will secure the vote of the committee.
The statement is made that President
Harrison looks with favor upon
Minneapolis. Cincinnati is prepar-
ing for determined effort, but there
seems to be a prejudice against that
city, based upon alleged bad treat
ment of certain of the candidates in
1876, when Blaine was defeated for
he nomination and Mr.. HAYES
selected as the Republican candidate.

We struck it wisely in the

keep sizes in all the colors,
but today they're here. An,
other lot of Kersey at SIS are
nearly related to the SIS sort

something must be wrong in
the service, for the goods are
