years. AT tho end of the three

We believe that our work in
the training of teachers is equal
to that of any school in the
country. This work is in charge
of a teacher Of nearly thirty
years experience, who has taught
country schools, has been princi-
pal of village schools and super
intendcnt of city schools. Many
successful teachers attribute their
success to the training received
here.
SCHOOL OF ENGLISH.
i Many schools and colleges pay
more attention to the study of
foreign languages than to the
study of English. This is a mis-
take. The language used by
Milton, Shakespeare, Dickens,
: Carlyle, and Emerson is such as
we teach here.
, Realizing the Importance Of
, this study, we have prepared our
work in English, beginning in

A NEW PRIMARY ELECTION
LAW

Democratic primary elections will
be held in Montgomery county to-
day, under the we'll known Crawford
county system, special local law
for which was passed at the last
Legislature. This act provides that
"any person in Montgomery county
who shall do anything at or about or
in relation to the conduct, or affect
ing the conduct, OF any primary
election which is now or may here
after be punishable as crime when
done at, about or in relation to or
affecting the conduct of any election
regulated by law, shall be deemed
guilty of a misdemeanor, the punish
whereof shall be that prescribed by
law in the case of such elections
regulated by law"
Deficient as this law may be in its
specific provisions tor the punish
ment If bribery, the system it inaugr
rates is at least a progressive step to-
wards honest primaries. The recent
unblushing bribery and corruption
witnessed in this county emphasize:
the necessity for needed Legislation
OF a stringent character. We con
graduate Montgomery that she is the
first county in the state to inaugurat'
this needed reform.

MARYLAND BANKS MAXI
GOOD EXHIBITS.

The very excellent showing made
by the forty six National Banks Of
Maryland, outside of the city Of
Baltimore, as we'll as that of the local
banks Of that city, gives every reas-
enable assurance that the financial
crisis now existing in the West, will
not extend to Maryland. Business
in every community must in a meas.
ure depend up the facility Of getting
bank discounts. The reserve funds
OF the Maryland banks are in excess
of the limit required by law, and
they have all the money needed for
the accommodation of solvent Dor
rowers. Beyond closer scrutiny o
those asking discounts, and increased
carefulness upon the part Of bank
officers. there is at present no indi-
cation that the fair business condition
of the State will be disturbed by the
financial condition existing in other
sections of the country.

WAR ON HOKE SMITH.
Union Veterans Denounce Him as an Ex-
Rebel and Enemy of the Urion.

Union Veterans Denounce Him as an Ex-
Rebel and Enemy of the Urion.
PITTsBURG, July 25.-The Pittsburg
members of the Union Veteran Legion
have declared war against Hon. Hoke
Smith.
A large and enthusiastic meeting was
held last night and resolutions adopted
denouncing him as an ex-rebel and an
enemy of the Union veteran.
While the veterans admitted that
there were many persons drawing pen
sons unworthily yet they denounced the
summary and unpatriotic suspensions
as similar to hanging man and then
trying him. They asserted that the
pension roll is one of honor aud when a
veterans name is once placed there
under the laws of the United States, it
is an insult and an outrage to have an
ex-rebel arbitrarily and without hear.
ing, strike the names of worthy comrades
from the rolls.
The old soldiers urged that it was
more necessary now than ever for vet
Grams to stand together and see that
their rights are maintained, even though
the honor due them might not be
awarded. Addresses were made by
Comrades Chalmers, Darlington, Seip,
Fu!lwood, Blair, WATSON, Campbell,
Jones, Pearson, Hay and others.

AS the inevitable tendency OF hot
weather is 10 bring to the surface of
the body all the foul humours of the
blood, SO it would seem that high
thermometer also marks the appear
ance upon the surface of society of
pestilential social humors. One of
these journalistic carbuncles has just
appeared in New York, in the shape
OF an Anarchist monthly called the
"Firebrand." Its title page dis
plays the herculean figure of work
man fourishing flaming torch, and
treading on heaps Of broken chains,
shackles, bayonets, law book, ald
bursted money bags. The mission
of the new journal will be to kill the
present sordid, pestilential and cor
rupted body called Society,"" Dyna-
mite is its idol, and Herr Most its
chief priest. Despotic censorship of
the press, would be a welcome rem
edy for all such prurient publications.

PEOPLES PARTY is WEAK

The Populist party is not numeri
cally strong in the State of Maryland
or in Baltimore, though the majority
of its members live in that city, A
Populist, in speaking OF his party
this week, said that its strength in
the State was not more than 1000.
The president of the party aud its
recognized leader is Clarence NJ.
Kemp, of Baltimore. Its organiza
ton" said Mr.. E. S Judge, one of
its members, lis not very perfect,
though its members are strongly
imbued with the justice and truth OF
its principles. There has been no
meeting of its executive board lately,
and its course at this falls election
is not yet outlined. We are waiting
for the action of Congress on this
silver law, and after that, our plans
will be outlined, and our work
begun. Though it remains inactive,
the Peoples party is still alive, ard
will be heard from later We are
not numerically strong enough here
to have much effect on the returns,
but We will vote our principles"
Mr.. Judge said that there is practi-
cally no Farmers Alliance in this
State now, 1t died out from lack of
interest on the part of its members.
The Alliance was closely allied to
the Peoples party. but was not a
political organization, and its men,
bers voted whatever ticket they
preferred.

CONSEQUENCES.

The crash of Denver banks is the
answer of the civilized world to the
crazy Governor of Colorado. The
connection is direct and undeniable.
The banks had securities on which,
even in the worst stress Of two weeks
ago, they could realize money.
They arranged for large sums from
the East, if needed Then the Gov.
ernor showed what he was, and the
civilized world inferred what forces
we're predominant in Colorado.
Prudent men who had property in
that State made haste to draw their
money out OF institutions where it
could be found by a revolution
against the rights of property. Runs
of extraordinary magnitude resulted.
The banks telegraphed for the ex-
pected Eastern aid, and found no.
body here willing to risk dollar in
Colorado. Widespread suffering
must follow, for companies and firms
employing thousands of hands will
have to stop, and thus workingmen
and miners, as we'll as merchants OF
Colorado, will discover the cost OF
having a Populist Governor.
The spectacle can crafty no man
of right feeling. But when people
govern themselves they must be
prepared to bear all the conse-
quences. When they vote wrong
they must'suffer. When they fail to
prevent majority from voting
wrong they must also suffer. If
there is lunatic in the house and
you are so engaged in talking poll
tics or struggling for the offices that
the lunatlc gets power TO burn the
house down there will be suffering
and loss. The business world has
no vindictiveness, but it does not
trust its money where lunatics hold
power.
Kansas has the same lesson to
learn, and is learning it. Governor
LewelIing, the Populist lawbreaker
who trampled on all law and decency
in order to steal control of the Legis-
lature. breaking up the State militia
while his Populist Organizations are
arming and drilling to seize all
power. He is encouraging strikers
IN coal mines to take virtual owner
ship, by force and bloodshed, of the
mines in which they have been
hired. Men who have any money
do not care to risk it within reach of
such a government. Depositors are
drawing their funds from banks,
without regard to the solvency or
good management OF the banks in
question. The run on many banks
in that State has been of astonishing
magnitude and persistency, and it
would be utterly incomprehensible
except in the light of the late election
and the conduct of the present Gov
ernor. In neither OF the adjacent
States, in no other Western State
except Colorado, has there been
such a collapse of banks as in the
one State where the Populists made
most effective use OF their power at
the last election.
Who dances must pay the piper.
The Democrats and the Populists
did much dancing last November.
They voted for change, and they
have it. Closing mills and mines
answer Free Trade victory. Clos
ing banks answer the votes of those
who declared that money lenders
we're robbers. Wall street Demo-
Gratis also know what their victory
has cost. To such of them as hold
stocks the year has brought the
change for which they voted.-M
Y Tribune.
