No, assuredly, Protection does not
build up and enrich the manufacturing

sections. On the contrary, if there
are any sections Of the country upon
which its influence for the good is
felt more than upon others, it is the
farming sections, for whose benefit, as
farmers should never forget, Protec-
ton was first adopted.

"$25OO FOR FREE COINAGE
what Was Really Said by Mcconnell
In ketchum Last Week.

1t is stated that, in ketchum, last
Thursday, ex>United States Senator
Mcdonnell said that he would give
$1,000 out of his own pocket to secure
the free coinage Of silver.
This is not quite in accordance with
the facts. Not that Mr.. Mcdonnell
would not cheerfu!ly give even ten
times $4,000 for the purpose stated;
but that the occasion did not Justify
such an offer on his part.
The refusal Of the Democrats in the
House to appropriate the amount re-
quired to pay the expenses Of the dele
gates to the International Monetary
Conference being discussed, this re.
porter proposed that dispatch be
sent to President Harrison which
would be as follows:
If the Democrats persist in refusing
funds for money conference, Alturas
county will, at DAYS notice, transfer
by telegraph $500 toward the expense
of the same.
"This," said the reporter, "should
bear at least half>a dozen names.
Now. Mr.. Mcconnell, do you author
zs me to sign your name, among
Others, to the Dispatch"
"Well, now, | am willing to be
good, at moments notice, for any
part Of that $500, and would cheer
fully give much more. But it seems
to me that it would hardly be the
thing for me, mere visitor here, to
sign such an offer from Alturas county
This might be charged to improper
motives. II you co.clude to send the
dispatch l beg to be allowed to stand
in to raise the amount. But if you
agree with me that it would perhaps
be best to let the whole State in or
this, in order to emphasize the pro
test, why promise you that the rat
ter will be brought to the attention Of
the State convention, and that the
amount rendered will be at leas
s25OO.
"And yet, gentlemen" continued
Mr.. Mcconnell, doubt the "propriet,
of making the offer at all at presen t
You see, the United States is grea
government, and | do not believe
that the President would feel a
liberty to accept aid rendered in sucI
way.
"On further consideration, l think
we had best wait. Even If the specific
amount is not voted, there are Other
resources available for that purpose
| The International Monetary Confer
ence will be held, whether our Demo
cratic friends appropriate money fol
it or not"

Ex-JUDGE GRAIN DEAD.-Ex-
Judge Peter w. Grain, died at the
Howard House, in Baltimore, on
Wednesday morning last. Death
resulted from a general failure of
his vital powers, due to his great
age. Judge Grain was SO years old,
having been born in Charles county
in 1906; He received his early ed
ucstion in the public schools of
Charles county, and his more adj
vanced studies were pursued at
Charlotte Hall. He read law with
the late John L. Stoddard and grad
mated from q law school in Winches-
ter, Va, 1927. Theyear following,
he commenced the practice of his
profession in Port Tobacco, and
soon gained for himself an envia-
BILE reputation as a lawyer. In
1841, he was elected to the legisla-
ture and was returned several times.
He was appointed by the Governor
in 1916 Chief Justice on the bench
in the Southern Maryland judicial
circuit, and served until 1851,
when new constitution made
the judiciary elective, when he
was elected for ten years to serve
as judge of the judicial circuit,
comprising Charles, st. Mary's
and Prince Georges counties.
At the expiration of his term,
he removed to Baltimore and COM
menced the practice of his profession
in the city. He was in 1867, ap-
pointed to a seat on the bench of
the Court of Appeals to fill vacan-
cy caused by the death of Judge
Cochrane, and at the expiration of
that term he again resumed practice,
retiring in 1878. Judge Grains
wife was Miss Elizabeth Fowler,
whose death occurred six years ago.
Mrs. Nellie NJ. Grain, his sister-in-
law, and his nephew, Mr.. Robert
Grain, the well known young law
yer, of Baltimore city, his nearest
relatives, Ire having no children,
we're were at the bedside of Judge
Grain at the time of his death.

/ do not know, nor is there any
record that | am aware Of. which
will disclose what was said or done
by the committee or the President.
Congress was not in session at the
time and Lincoln was assassinated
early in 1865 and thus, presume,
action was prevented in the premi-
ses.
The State Convention held in
1867 took on the subject substan-
tally the same position as will APP
pear By Constitutional references
made IN the petition and adroitly
shown by the Port Tobacco Times
in its article above referred to, SO
that from its beginning to the pres
ent time no person of ordinary IN
telligence has pretended that it was
or is party question, at least, in
Maryland ; nor have / noticed that
it was considered so in any other
portion of the country. The late
Republican member of Congress,
Honorable Sidney Mudd, not only
volunteered to present the same Pc
tition to the last House of Repre-
sentatiyes but declared his inten-
ton to do his utmost. towards the
success of the claim and he no
doubt would have fulfilled his prom
Use, but Congress was SO deeply abb
sOrbed by the Force Bill and the
Tariff that no suitable opportunity
was afforded him for doing so.
About that time the editor of the
Maryland Independent who had pre-
viously expressed himself against
the claim, had read the arguments
in the petition announced himself
in favor of it and was thus The fist
Republican editor who had done so.
Then, why should parties be d.
vided on this question ? To say
nothing about the clear, abstract
justice OF the claim, it is to the in
terest of all our people to favor it.
Many Republicans as well as Dem
ocrats were slave-owners. If they
receive compensation for them they
will be able to employ more laborers
on their farms and to pay wages
due them more promptly. Many
other advantages will readily be
seen by every rejecting mind.

NEWS IN BRIEF.
From the Balti,Rcre Sun.

Saturday, April 2, 1892.
Numerous scandals will have to
be explained by republican orators
when the compaign opens.
Cleveland meetings will be held
throughout Maryland under the
auspices OF the Tariff Reform Club.
The Dutchess of Pastrana, who
has just died in Madrid, Spain, has
bequeathed the greater part of her
enoFmous fortune to the Jesuits.
4 tornado which has been raging
in Kansas destroyed many lives and
much property. The storm also
destroyed towns in Nebraska. In
Chicago seven persons were killed
by the wreckiug of a building in a
storm.
In the U. S. House of Represen-
tatives Mr.. Watson, the third party
member from Georgia, attacked the
tariff and, incidentally, the internal
revenue laws. He created much
amusement by reviewing the exI en-
ditures OF the various collection dis
tricts of the country, and, compar-
ing them with the amount collected.
At st. Augustine, Fla, he said it
had cost 81 800 to collect fifteen
cents. In Annapolis, Md, ..the
collection Office had cost 1858 aud
there had not been collected one
Gods blessed cent" In Cherry
stone, Va, it had cost 81, $50 to
collect nothing.
LEGISLATIVE.
Two of the general appropriation
bills were passed by the Senate and
are now ready for executive action.
Mr.. CARROTS bill providing for
the payment by the State of s75,-

was passed by the House.
Under the general oyster law.
which has been approved by the
Governor, the season for dredging

victs iSsthe penitentiary to manu-
facture binder Irvine was lost in the
House by q vote of 36 to 80, but n
reconsideration of the vote was
afterward granted. 1t came up
again at the night session and was
again defeated. An unfayorable

The evidence Of Mr.. L. j. Wise's
Democracy may be found in the
persistent efforts of Republicans TO
humiliate him. Mr.. Wise received
in the Democratic primaries in his
district, last fall, a larger vote than
any other Legislative candidate
thus showing what his people think
Of him. There is no excuse for the
failure of Democratic Senate TO
confirm him. The action was an
insult to the Democratic voters of
the Eighth district. The enemies
he has made should have caused
true Democrats to stand by him.

Learned lawyers express grave
doubts as to the constitutionality of
the Act to increase the salaries Of
the Judges. But how will the
question be tried, if raised? Our
Judges cannot sit in their own case
and before what tribunal is it to be
carried? Such an Act is enough
10 make Marylanders hang their
heads with shame, and it IS but
small consolation to Democrats that
the bare majority by which it pass
ell the Senate is reported to have
been made by the vote of the Re-
publican Senator from st. Mary's.
There should have been enough
Democratic votes to defeat the
measure.

ICoMMUNICATED,

Messrs. Editors Since my pc
tition was presented to the Senate
| have been greatly gratiiied to see
in some State papers favorable no.
tees of it. The Baltimore Sun
published an abstract of it which
sets forth its points in a most ad-
mirable manner aud which from its
wide circulation Mill reach the
minds of the intelligent people and
win for our just claim their undi-
vided support. The Port Tobacco
Times too rebukes the Maryland
Journal which while admitting that
the arguments of the petition are
vigorous and, of course, entitled to
much consideration, says the claim
will "likely be laughed out of
court" Whether the Journal will
advocate the claim its editor does
not say.
This has not been and is lot in
tended to be party question. In
1862 many of the leading Republi-
cans conceded its justice and the
propriety of paying it by their
speeches and votes in Congress, as
| can and will prove from the re-
cord if | consider it necessary. The
very Republican Convention of
this State which abolished slavery
in 1864, adopted the following res
olution by large majority:
"2esOlped, That special COM
mittee to consist of seven members
be appointed by the president of
the convention, of which he shall
act as chairman, whose duty it shall
be to visit and confer with the Pres
ident OF the United States, res
pecting an appropriation on the
part of the federal government to
the State of Maryland, in confor-
nifty to the recommendations of
the messages of the President of
the United States of March 9Th,
1862, and December LIST, 1862, and
the joint resolution of congress.
approved April 10th, 1862, declar-
ing ''that the United States ought
to cooperate with any State which
may adopt gradual adjustment of
slavery, giving to such State pecu-
MARY aid, to be used by the State
in its discretion, to compensate for
Inconvenience, pablo and private,
produced by such change of sys-
tenn.
"The committee will submit to
the President of the United States
article 24th of the declaration of
rights, as adopted by this conven-
ton, and respectfully ask in behalf
Of this body, that, upon ratification
of said. cath article by the people
of this State, he will recommend
to congress, at its next session to
make such appropriation as will
compensate loyal owners for the in
conveniences and losses sustained
in the premises"

Some of our Republican friends
seem much exacerbated over their
dismal failure to make out cases
against the Democratic election Of
ficials. But one presentment could
be found on the one-sided hearing
Of the case and when the jury had
time to think over that the indict-
ment under it was ignored. 1t can
not be said that the Democrats
packed the jury, for no Democrat
had anything to do with choosing
the names. There was, we believe,
nothing in the charges and nothing
came of them despite the strenuous
effort to make out cases. A free
translation of the headline of our
ctemporary hits the nail on the
head 1.-The mountains labored,
and producsd a ridiculous MASS.
