HOC Hc WOuIu accept nomination IOr
Presidency from this convention.
The Tribute to Col. Polk.
On concluding his address before the
convention, Chairman Ellington said !:
Il believe it is possible for this repre-
sentative body to meet, take counsel
perform it's work and adjourn without
one single word of discord, not one of
hateful strife to mar and defacc it's
glorious record. We have reached a
crisis in our history and this meeting
will show whether or not we measure up
to the responsibilities of the hour. We
are here to-day with the shadow of a
great trouble resting upon us. He
whom our hearts delighted to honor
our leader, the true, the tried, the
honest Polk is dead; has just been
taken from us when we needed him
most. Our hearts mourn his loss. No
loftier soul ever breathed, none worked
harder, suffered more, spent more than
he did. He gave his life to our beloved
cause and we do not believe it was
given in vain. Oh, shade of the loving,
great Polk, may the mantle of thy spirit
fall upon us to day in our deliberations
! call upon you to-day in His name, that
if there be single vestige, an iota OF
sectional feeling left in the hearts of any
of us, to wipe it out, charge it sacredly
that while we stand in the shadow Of
Polk's great love, we consecrate our
selves to the great work of reform
ing this government, and that the
/ man who honestly desires its reforma
ton is our brother and l want to sa,
that we can reform it. Ibelieve that W,

Which Opinion ?

or more Negroes marced through West
minister on Monday night carrying ban
ner declaring against wildcat" money
The Democratic platform declares for re-
peal of the Federal tax of ten per cent.
which is unconstitutional, on the circula-
ton of State banks. This is construed by
the Republican leaders in Carroll to mean
return to the wildcat money of ante-bel-
lum days. The Democrats mean no such
thing, and these same Republicans knew it.
Still, they will say anything to gain votes,
and they declare that the Democratic de-
mand for the repeal of this tax means un-
sound currency. New York is the great
commercial centre of this country. Forty
bank presidents there end orse the abolition
of this tax on state bank circulation an d
are supp orting Mr.. Cleveland. VIII the

Other Issues.

The tariff and the force bill have alb
sorbed 50 much of public attention that
other topics have been comparatively over
looked the present canvass. The admins
tration of President Harrison invites crit
icism on account of its lavish expenditure
of the public money. 1t will be remem-
bered that Mr. Cleveland left Il surplus in
the treasury of about one hundred millions
of dollars That sum has vanished and
deficit left Of about seventy-tive millions.
Mr.. Buchanan could get along with an
annual expenditure of 500 .000,OO0, aud this
was thought by his Republican opponents
to be extravaganza Mr.. Harrison has ex-
pended more than sou, 000, 900 per an
annum, and the 5lst Congress spent more
than billion of dollars This immense
sum can scarcely be comprehended by the
ordinary mind. \ robber tariff alone en-
ables the Republicans to make this vast
expenditure of the people money.
Under Mr. Harrisons administration
civil service reform has gone to the dogs
1t has been openly and shamelessly yiolat-
ed and so freely and frequently, that the
very name of civil service reform has be-
come mockery and is treated with derision.
And this is not done without the Presi-
dents knowledge, for it is done in the sight
of all men.
The Presidents nepotism also is very re-
markable He has appointed to office
more of his family connections than proba-
bly, any other of our Presidents This is
looked upon with disfavor by all honorable
mon. 1t is generally considered that as
the President has been honored by having
conferred upon him the highest office in
the land he ought to be satisfied with that,
and confer his subordinate positions upon
those not connected with his family. Mean
as it is, however, it is but a minor offence
compared to some others, and may be more
readily eondoned by forgiying public, but
such practices lessen the respect of the peo-
pie for the high Office of Chief Magistrate.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1892-11-05
Mr.. Talbot.

Mr.. Talbot is the regular nominee OF
his party. and as such is entitled 10 the
vote of every party man. Furthermore
every voter who is opposed to a Force bill
and bayonet rule and in favor of reducing
taxation should support him on Tuesday
next.
The ISSUES are too momcntous, the con-
sequences too serious, to stop to consider
men. \ republican form of government
is at stake. The liberty of the people Is
involved in the result. The question
whether the masses are To be still longer
taxed for the benefit of the few, depends
upon the decision.
Men are but instruments by which prin-
ciples are applied to government. Those
who believe that the government has no
right to impose taxation except for the
purpose of raising the necessary revenue to
,lefray the expenses Of government, eco
nomicaly administered; those who oppose
a system of taxation that enables the few
to lay the many under tribute; those VIII"
are opposed to federal interference in state
elections, and possible bayoncts at the polls,
should vote for Mr. Talbot.
There are four candidates for Congress
in this district, and he is the only one
pledged to tax reduction and against fed
eral domination of state elections. The
Prohibition and Peoples Party candidates
are not to he considered in the contest at
all. Their combined vote will be inslgnIt-
cant. and the only real candidates are Mr.
Talbot and Mr.. Baker, the Republican
nominee.
No Democrat can conscientiously vote,
in view of the importance of the issues IN
voIved. for the Republican nominee, and
the Democrat who declines to vote for Mr.
Talbot gives IL half a vote for high taxa
ton and the Force bill.
Let the Democrats of Carroll be true To
their principles next Tuesday, place their
cross-marks at the right of the Democratic
emblem. and vote the whole ticket.
\ vote for Talbot is Il vote against the
twin iniquities the Mckinley bill and the
Force bill

The Australian Ballot.

We give in this issue an exact copy Of
the ticket that will be voted on November
Sth. 1t will be observed each ballot con-
tains the emblem and nominees of the
Democratic, Republican, Prohibition and
Peoples parties, and one blank ticket for
the convenience of these who desire to make
up ticket of their own from the others.
There is nothing complicated about vo-
ting. \ Y made to the right of the Jack
sou and Liberty cut at the head of the
Democratic ticket means vote for the
entire ticket This is all that Democratic
voters care to know concerning the marking
of ballots, as vote for the entire ticket
means a vote for lower federal taxation
and blow at the Force bill.
The only other change in the manner of
voting is in not permitting crowd in the
polling places. A voter enters the voting
room, goes to the ballot clerk and announces
his name. If the name is found on the
registration list, the ballot clerk signs his
initials on ballot, hands it to the voter and
the voter goes to booth, marks his ticket
with stamp provided, and then hands it
to one of the judges of election. He then
leaves the room and cannot enter again.
The official ballot can only be obtained from
the ballot clerks If a voter should stamp
ballot wrong he is entitled to receive
another. If he spoils the second, he is
entitled to third If he doesn't mark
this to suit him he cannot get any more
and must retire. Voters, if they choose,
can ask the assistance of ballot clerk in
their ballots.
Voting places contain one booth for every
100 registered voters or fraction of hun
dred. If polling place has nine booths,
nine voters can occupy the booths at one
time, and like number may enter the
voting room at the same time. Voters are
required to prepare their ballots without
unnecessary delay and retire. Spoiled bal
lots must be returned to the ballot clerks,
before others will be furnished.
The new system is little more expen-
sive than the old, but it has merits over the
old Under the new voters can vote un-
molested and in secresy, and bribery is re-
duced to a minimum, for vote-buyers will
not purchase unless they can see the pur-
chased ballots cast, which is impossible.

The Tariff on Wheat.
Sarv.

The tariff on wheat is twenty-five cents
a busheI, under the Mckinley bill. This
was put in the bill to deceive the farmer
to make him believe he is protected. The
yearly importation of wheat before the
Mckinley law went into effect was about
5000 bushels, and this was seed wheat.
Now this tax makes the importation of
wheat so expensive the American farmer
is prohibited from buying choice varieties
for seed from abroad.
For keeping out of the American market
this 5000 bushels of seed wheat, this pro-
lection of less than 81 $50 to the wheat
raisers of this country, the American
farmer is made to pay tax of one dollar
Il ton on his coal, tax of from so to 100
per cent. on his clothing, 112 per cent. on
his hats, $50 per cent. on his g lassware, 40
per cent. on his coffin and 90 per cent. on
his tombstone, if he manages to leave his
widow enough to buy one. He is taxed
on his plows, his wagons, his harness, his
cultivators, his threshing machine, his
reapers and his mowers, and in fact upon
all his necessities.
This country has large surplus of
wheat annually 1t must be sold abroad,
and the price is fixed abroad. This country
in effect said it would not trade with
foreign countries, by placing such high
tax on foreign goods brought here. Eng
land. the chief wheat buyer, stimulated
wheat raising in India. and draws much Of
her supply from that country, and gives
her manufactures in exchange. The India
wheat is inferior to the American wheat,
but nations are like individuals, they trade
with those nations that trade with them.
England being unable TO establish fair trade
as much of her supply of wheat, corn, beef
and pork as possible. America not buying
English manufactures to much extent,
English ships have but little west bound
freight. Coming over in ballast to get
American farm products, the American
farmer has to pay the expense of the trip
here as well as the voyage back. This re-
duces the price Of wheat, which is fixed at
Liverpool, and made low enough to cover
freight charges and insurance.
Wheat has been lower the past ten days
than for forty years past, and there is not
much prospect of rise in price. The
twenty-five cents tax on a bushel, is no
protection to farmers. If the tax was
twenty-five dollars bushel, the price
would be no higher The putting of this
tax in the Mckinley bill was sham and
fraud and deliberately put there to deceive
and humbug the farmer-to make him be-
lieve he was protected by the bill while the
manufacturer could fleece him.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1892-11-05
How Protection Works.

IF the County Commissioners of Carroll
had the power and would lay tax of four
dollars on every pillow brought into the
county, five dollars on every suit of clothes,
one dollar on every pair of shoes, and one
dollar on every hat, toprotect persons in the
county who were manufacturing these ar
ticles, they would be earring out exactly
the Republican policy of protection. The
tax would keep out such articles made out
of the county, because the tax would have
to be added to the cost and that would
make them too dear. The manufacturer
could add $500 to the price of his plow'
for instance, and undersell the imported
pillow one dollar He could manufacture
pillow as cheaply as the manufacturer in
Baltimore county, or Howard, or Freder
lex, and the $500 added would be in ad-
dition to the fair profit made by manufac-
turers outside of the county
But, say the Protectionists, our manu-
features pay more for labor than foreigners.
They do, but the freight across the ocean
and the insurance about equals the differ
ence in the cost of labor between this coun-
try and Europe. In addition there is a
protection of an average of 81 cent on all
imports The tax ranges from forty per
cent. to over two hundred and fifty per
cent. and this the protected manufacturer
pockets. This is why there are so many
millionaires, and so many tramps; why farms
are mortgaged and palaces going up; why
the rich are growing richer and the poor
growing poorer All our surplus grain,
beef and pork is sold in a free trade mark
ct, and everything the farmer has to buy
is taxed for the benefit of the manufactur-
ers.
The Democratic policy is not to destroy
the tariff but to reform it; to raise only
such revnue that the government needs,
some 0,000,G00 a year; to increase the
tax on luxuries and lower it on necessities;
to lay it for revenue and not to make mil
lionaires and paupers.

POLITICAL NOTICES.
RALLY, DEMOCRATS.

We are on the home-stretch now. The
cause of Tariff Reform is booming, and the
death-knell of the Force Bill will soon be
sounded Everywhere the people are
awakening to the dangers that threaten,
and the outlook is for sweeping Demo-
cratic victory High Taxes must be low
cred. Federal control of elections must
be averted.
Democrats of Carroll must not be behind
in the battle for equal and just laws, equal
and Just taxation and home rule. Arouse,
then, and advance upon the enemy.
