\ Much Needed Law.

The Cecil Mars advocates the pas.
sage Of a law by the Legislature compell-
ing a husband to support his wife The
paper says:
While it is true the law says man is
compelled To- furnish his wife with the
neccSsaries OF life, what remedy has she,
if he refuses TO do so? Why, says the
law, She can purchase them on his credit.
and he can be made pay for them.
On his credit. Made pay for them, How:
why the credit Of such men is never
worth more than about one cent ON the
dollar. What merchant ever will give
credit To such rascal: In fact they
never have any credit The men who
refuse 10 support their wives are general
~ without property, and who cannot be
made To pay one cent.
Such being the case, their wiyes are
without any remedy, or one worse than
none at ALL In other States such hus-
bands, when they refuse or neglect 10
support their families, are compelled to
give bond To do so, or go to Jail. Some
NAV claim that this in many cases would
virtually amount to Imprisonment for
debt which has long been abolished in
this State. II SO the sooner imprison-
mcnt for such debts is rcestablshed the
better. When man violates law of
the State and is fined and does not pay,
he is committed to Jail until he has paid
the uttermost farthing. We hear no
complaint against this sort of imprison-
ment which is nothing more than i'm
prisonmcni for a debt due To the State
The only way to collect such fines is by
an action for debt when the party is able
To pay and refuses If he is unable he
goes 10 Jail fol length of time proper
uonate to the amount of his fine"

An Eastern shore Asylum

Senator lIubner.nf Baltimore county,

mcnl OF another State insane asylum. He
considers such an additional provision
necessary in view of the oyercrowded
condition of the institution at Spring
Grove AMI the inadequate provisions for

Ex-Governor jackson and the L
=. ScnatOrship.


The Salisbury .idrertiser gives editor.
tally lair statement of the why's aud
wherciorcs OF Senator Gibsons election.
The .idrertiSer SAYS:
Last Thursday the General Assembly
of Maryland, or more accurately speak
ing, Mr.. German. chose Charles H. Glib
son United States Senator from the Eas-
tern Shore
Mr. German. himself, had been few
DAYS before, with practical unanimily,
elected for the third time 10 represent the
State of Maryland in the Upper House OF
Congress. The average mortal would
have been content with this rare tribute
to his usefulness and popularity, but the
Senior Senator is more than AN average
mortal, and therefore demands more.
This demand was no sudden discovery
on the part of Mr.. German. OF his own
re election he felt quite sure. His tri-
umphant victory over the force bill last
winter made that almost inevitable.
To make his own personally even more
potent, he needed man for associate who
could and would subject himself To Cor
mans domination. Mr. German had this
idea in view and very close To his heart
when he sought Gov. Jackson in behalf
of Mr.. Gibson BY Germans peculiar
genius he succeeded in malsing Governor
Iackson's friends believe that Mr. Glib
sons appointment would in no way affect
the chances of the Governor for the GOV
eted seat in the Senate. Later Mr.. Glib
son himself strengthened this belief by
coming To Wicomico rs the guest of the
Governor and declaring from the hust-
ngs that he was unquaifiedly Tor Gov.
Jackson for the L :. Senate. The press
of the State so reported il and Mr.. Glib
son was not understood to be in the field.
Despite all this the Governors defeat
hinges about his appointment of Mr. Glib
son, whose election Thursday, no doubt,
pleascs Mr.. German and is gratifying Ia
Mr. Gibson, but il is not satisfactory To
the people Of the Eastern Shore, in eyi-
dence of which we need only mention
that II number of the best citizens of his
own county (TalboD were out spoken
against him, and would gladly have given
their influence TO Governor Jackson, OF
almost any Of the other candidates in the
field in preference What is true of Tai
bot is more particular true of every other
county of the Shore.
They all feel that the people Of Mary
lard are under no obligations to Mr.. Glib
son, beside the business oil the matter de-
manded that "one Of the good men 'rho
Slook the bush Si0uld hace had tie hare.
Mr.. Gibson made no open and legiti-
mate fight, but owes his election directly
to the powerful influence of Mr.. German.
Governor jackson takes his defeat quite
cheerfully. which is in striking contrast
to the displcasure manifested by his
friends.
