The action of Senator Hill in New York
in asking the State Central Committee to
call an early convention, is just such as
any other aspirant for the Presidency, with
a rival in his own state, would have taken.
Ample time was given for holding primaries
and county conventions. No time was
necessary for discussion Of candidates, for
that had been going on for several years,
and every voter had made his choice. The
gentlemen who abstained from participa-
ton in the primaries and convention, knew
their inability to influence the action of
the rarty. They are opposed to Senator
Hill and have always been, in primaries,
conventions and at the polls. Their de-
termination to hold another convention
shows they are not party men. And the
Righteousness of their proposed action Of
selecting delegates to the Chicago convcn-
ton will be made apparent to them when
the National Convention closes the door
against the delegates. No other action
could be taken, for if any body of men
can hold conventions not called by the
regularly constituted authorities of party,
and have their delegates admitted to a
national convention, party organization
would be destroyed.

Defeat the Bill.

Eighteen Senators were present last Fri
day night when the bill appropriating
$50 900 for an exhibit at the Chicago fair
was passed, and every one voted for its
passage. The original bill provided for
100000, but the Finance committee cut
the appropriation down to $4,000. This
was not surprising, but that such bill
should 90 through without a word Of de-
bate is. Two-thirds Of the people of the
counties of the state are opposed to spend
ing the peoples money in that way, and
very many in Baltimore also. It is hoped
the House will at least split the approprla-
ton again, or better still, defeat the raid
on the treasury, which is made to crafty
the ambition of few people who want to
figure at Chicago at the states expense.
1t is the most useless appropriation ever
asked of any Legislature, and if it is made,
an amendment ought to be added releasing
Archer from the Peniteutiary. IT money
is taken from the treasury improperly, it
matters little whether it was done under
the form of law or taken without.
The yeas and nays on this appropriation
will be interesting for future reference.

Two Assessment Bills.

There are before the Legislature two
assessment bills, one drawn up by State
Tax Commissioner Shaw, and the other is
the bill that was endorsed by the late
Farmers State Association, and was pre-
scented by Mr. Collins. The former is SINH
lar to the one that was passed two years
ago, and vetoed by Gov. Jackson. 1t pro-
vides for an assessment by assessors, coun-
ties to be divided into assessment districts,
as was done in 1876. and also for Board
of Control and Review, The bill divides
Carroll into four assessment districtS-the
first to be composed of Taneytown, Union
town, Middleburg and Union Bridge dis
tricts; the second. of Myers, Westminster
and New Windsor districts; the third, of
Woolery's, Manchester and Hampstead
districts; the fourth, of Freedom, Franklin
and Mt. Airy districts.
The Collins bill is much shorter and
provides for what is termed the listing sys-
TEN. 1t has the merit, too, of being less
expensive, for every taxpayer, under the
bill, becomes his own assessor, under oath,
and the further merit of providing for an
nual assessments. The bill provides that
mortgage and judgment debts shall be de-
Quoted from assessments, and mortgages
and judgments are assessed to the holder
The bill needs some amendments, but
if it is perfected and enacted there would
be more equality in taxation, and large
increase in the basis The annual assess.
ment would result in maintaining and in
creasing the basis.
In 1876 the cost of the assessment in
Carroll cost over SS,O00 Under the Col
Inns bill the cost would not exceed $3.50
In 1876 the basis was increased by som'
$4,000, 900, and the very next year Their
was dec rease of S14,000,000. Persona
property, by some means, got off the tai
books. By annual assessments stocks
bonds and other securities could not go int
hiding.

The latest political joke is the announce
ment of Henry W. Blair, of New Hamp
shire, of his candidacy for the Republican
nomination for President. Blair was once
a United States Senator, and he spent most
of his twelve years there in an effort to pass
an educational bill Finally his party sup
planted him, and then President Harrison
appointed him Minister to some foreign
country, which peremptorily refused to re-
ceive him. He fingered around Washing
ton for some months, drew salary as
Minister, then went home. As Presi-
denti,d candidate no one would have thought
of him, and his announcement of his can
didacy will not cause any intense excite
ment throughout the country.
