Mr.. CURTIS in HUbv'S Weekly
rebukes the partisan spirit which
underlies Senator Hills watchword,
81 am a Democrat" He deplores
it, because it means the party right
or wrong. Yet Mr.. Curtis's tavorite,
Grover Cleveland, has said the same
thing time AID again. 1t was the
only reason he could give for ad-
dressing Tammany Hall Only few
days ago Cleveland was quoted at
New Orleans as saying:
THE national issue, | take t, will
be the tariff; but as a good Demo
crat, | shall stand by the action of
my party in the coming contest -
Grover Cleveland is just as much
OF a Democrat for all practical pur-
poses as David Bennett Hill, and
what he said at New Orleans was
simply paraphrase OF Hills motto.
When he mounted the stump for
Tammany he showed the hollowness
of the high-sounding platitudes which
catch the ears OF the Curtises ct aL
Alter that performance. there could
be no new proof required of his
partisan spirit, and OF his eagerness
to advance his personal interests al
the cost of public respect.

COMING from man of Mr.. Blaine'S
size INTEL 7ctually and politically, his
declaration ma lie public on Monday
last, that his ''name will not go be
fore the Republican National Con
vention for the nomination" for the
Presidency made sensation
throughout the Country, and was
respectfully received by multitudes OF
his countrymen who cherish for him
an intense feeling OF personal devo-
ton.
The report comes from Washing
ton that, the Democrats are much
pleased with Mr.. Blaines withdrawal,
because they believe him to be the
strongest man in the Republican
Party, and if nominated at Minnea
polls, the chances of the Republicans
would be materially improved.
While they are INDUCING some
selt-congratulation at Mr.. Blaines
declination, they still tear, that he
may be made the candidate of the
Republicans, and that the nomina
ton will be given him with such
unanimity as will compel its accept
ance.
We hope to see their worst fears
realized.

RAPACITY RAMPANT.

The files of both houses of the
Legislature are already burdened
with bills increasing the powers OF
and granting other tavors to various
corporations, and corporation attor-
neys and lobbyists appear to rule
the roast"
Among the more mischievous
measures introduced is q gas bill even
more Objectionable than the one
which was defeated two years ago,
authorizing corporations to "make
contracts for the use Of water, gas or
electric light for term not exceed
ing twenty years" There is also a
measure taking the appointment OF
school commissioners from the cir
cult judges and placing it in the
hands Of the Governor, thus turning
the public school system into a poll
teal machine.
Tit ring bosses are also pushing
a movement for a Constitutional
Convention, and it is stated by con-
sentative Democratic newspapers
that their principal object in wanting
to saddle this great inconvenience
and expense upon the State is that
they may retire and punish the
judges OF the Court OF Appeals and
others who are too honest and indie
pendent to further the vicious
schemes Of the managers, and also
that they may reach certain corpora
tons which under the present Con
stitution they cannot lay under con-
tribution to the corruption fund. A
new constitution would put all the
present judges and other officials out
OF office, and those who are not sub
servient to the bosses would be kept
out. The people of Maryland would
do we'll to watch the proceedings at
Annapolis very closely. The Cor
man ring was never SO arrogant, SO
powerful, nor so INSCRIPTIONS as it
is to day.-Belair Times.

When it is seen that the total eX-
pense of establishing one of these

the only subsequent expense TO the

about S. per thousand, it will be APP
parent that this departure S all ex-

BROTHER HADDAwAY of the Eas-
tod Ledger, who rightfully prides
himself upon the correct use OF the
English language, and yields editor
tally a tacile pen, thus defends Sena
tor German in classic if not Ingallic
strain.
Giving Mr.. German the credit,
or the responsibility, tor every hap
pening, o. unhappening, that hap
pens, or does not happen, is becom
ing monotonous, and our Salisbury
contemporaries are adding to the
monotony.
1t is known, of course, that Mr..
German was the author of the forked
decretals, that he wrote the epi5tIe
to the Ephesians, that he stopped the
wandering Jew, that he directs the
currents and tides ofthe Cult Stream,
that he made Melchisedeek a High
Priest, that it was his faultthat Alex
ander the Great died at his youthful
age. 1t is said also, whilst there Is
no proof, that NJ. German built the
Equator, that he was once in partner
ship with the Horizon, that the
Glacial Period was given as special
favor to him, and that it was Mr..
German, and not the ocean, that wet

TEMPERANCE Elm NORWAY.

While the friends of Temperance in
this county are discussing methods
for the suppression of drunkenness,
and the restriction OF the general
evils of lntemperance, 1t may be at
least a matter of interest to know
how other Countries are dealing
with the same evils. The Ea'l OF
Meath says the Philadelphia Ledger
is remembered for the active interest
he showed on his visit here in all our
reform work. He has recently con-
tributed to the Nineteenth Century =
Magazine a capital account of the
diminution OF drunkenness in Nor
way. In his visit there he saw no
men or women in rags, no drunk
ards, no brawlers, no beggars and
no taverns. By legislation in 1865
and 1871 public houses have been
practically abolished in the country
and greatly diminished and
regulated in the towns. In Bergen,
with 90, 600 inhabitants, there are
only II public houses, and the pro
fits made by them are expended in
local improvements, new parks, good
roads and puollc institutions. Goth
enburg, in Sweden, first set on foot
the plan of regulating licenses now
adopted throughout both Sweden
and Norway. A stock company is
organized and a monopoly OF licenses
is granted to it, with limit of five
per cent. on the capital invested. All
the profit made beyond that is hand
ed over to the city authorities for
public use. City Councils fix the
number oflicenses, elected part OF
the managers and distribute the
profits among deserving charities,
benevolent societies and other instl
tutions entirely dependent upon vol
untary support. The hours for clos
ing are regulated by laws which are
strictly enforced. The result is
great reduction in drunkenness and
a great increase in charitable instltu-
tons. The company owning the
monopoly In Bergen earns over us
per cent. annually, and, after paying
: per cent. to its shareholders, gives
the balance to the parks and roads
built tor the public, to workmen's
building societies, to coffee houses,
lectures, clubs, reading rooms,
museums, theatres and other useful
objects. Norway and Sweden have
in this way rescued their people
from the growing ravages OF drunk
enneSs. The new companies bought
the stock of liquors of the old
tavern keepers, and employed many
Of them, obliging them, however, to
enforce strictly the rules as to hours,
minors, drunkards, and in every
way striving to reduce drinking to
minimum. The taverns are made
as plain and unattractive as possible,
with no private apartments or any
conveniences for lounging on the
premises. On the other hand, the
coffee rooms are made as attrao tive
as possible, and reading and smok
ing rooms, billiards and ten pins and
other amUsements are provided.
Thus the laboring man is given the
choice between the tavern alone and
the coffee rooms, where he can take
his family, and the tavern is made
to pay the expenses of those who
prefer to be sober and temperate

EX-GoVERNoR William Pinkney
Whyte, one of Maryland's most ac-
co.nplished gentlemen as well as
brilliant lawyers, has been congra-
ulated by many OF his friends during
the past week upon the statement
that he is soon to wed Mrs. Raleigh
Thomas, a beautiful and accomplish
ed woman of Baltimore. The news
is gratifying to the friends of both
Governor Whyte and Mrs. Thomas
who have host Of friend, in that
city.
Governor Whyte is a true Mary
land gentleman in every sense of the
word. Besides having been the
recipient of the highest state honors
that could have been bestowed upon
any Marylander, he has the conf
dence and esteme of all who know
him. Mrs. Thomas is the daughter
OF the late William Mcdonald, and
has known Governor Whyte since
her childhood.
