A full Democratic vote next
Tuesday means a Democratic
victory.
Repealed at Last.

The President on Wednesday signed the
bill repeating the silver purchasing clause
of the Sherman act, and it is now law
The bill passed the Senate on Monday,
by vote of 43 to ga majority of IL.
The Senate amended the House bill, by
a declaration in favor of the use of both
gold and silver as money, and the bill had
to 90 back to the House for concurrence.
The House eoncurred in the amendment
on Wednesday by vote of 1913 to ga
majority of SO.
The effect of this legislation is to stop
the monthly purchase of 100000 ounces
of silver. All the silver in circulation, and
all the silver certificates issued against the
silver bullion in the Treasury, some $780,
100000, are legal tender, and on parity
with gold In other words, every dollar
is equal to every other dollar.
Congress has now adjourned, and will
meet again in regular session on the first
Monday in December, the 4th. The House
will then take up bill to reform the tariff
and the Senate the House bill repeating
the Federal election laws. Some financial
legislation will be passed at the next ses-
sion providing for an increase in the vol
ume of currency.

condition than even the houses themselves.
In these old buildings, with benches without
backs, and desks of pine boards extending
around the sides, fifty or sixty children are
compelled to spend the day, crowded so
thickly that comfort is entirely out of the
question. Perhaps one fourth of our houses
might be made to answer the purposes for
which they were intended, but the most are
mere apologies of school houses, and yet, bad
as they are, the most of them we're built by
the citizens and have never been
decided to the county"
No thinking taxpayer, nor citizen who
is in favor of good government, fair cleo
tons, an unbiased court, non-partisan
school system, public road system divorced
from craftsmanship, will pay any heed to
this plea for the 'just principle" of minor
ity representation,
Give the Republicans County Com
missioner now, and two years hence they
will try to secure another, and thus have a
majority Two years following they will
try to get the third, and have all. The
power of the Board will then be used to
get all the. offices in the county.
In view of the Republican record, the
plea now for this 'just principle" is rather
a thin veil to disguise an attempt to get
control of the county, and the three or four
hundred Democratic majority next Tues
day will show that the people have not
been deceived

eUery man Of goa.

Why should any Democrat vote for Mr..
Crabbs? He may be very clever man,
good fellow socially, and very mild in his
politics, but if elected he will be the servant
of his party and in honor bound to carry
into execution, so far as the law will per-
init, the principles of the Republican party.
Can any Democrat afford by his vote to
give the Republicans foothold in the ad-
ministration of county affairs ? Great
principles should never be sacrificed for
social relations.

Suits for SANDER.


The virulence and acrimony with which
certain persons are assailing and maligning
Mr.. Elias B. Arnold, the Democratic can
didate for the Sheritfalty, are set forth by
the fact that suits for SANDER have been
brought by Mr.. Arnold against three per-
sons in Taneytown district, who are said
to have been active and conspicuous in
disseminating slanderous reports against
him. He has instituted suits against these
persons, determined to submit to their NAL
ignant ISLANDERS no longer. Sheriff Dorsey
served writs upon. them on Wednesday
last, and they will be held to answer for
their conduct in court.

COUNTY TICKET.

FOR ASSOCIATE JUDGE,
JAMES REVELL,
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1893-11-04
Consistency.

The Republican organ last week pleaded
for the '.just principle" of minority repre-
seutation, and asked the Democrats to
elect the Republican candidate for County
Commissioner.
In another article it plead for the cleo
ton of the ,ohole Republican ticket.
The Sentinel is very consistent journal,
ironically speaking.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1893-11-04
Tuesday next is Election Day
Two Facts and Two Pledges.


The Sentinel says property is assessed
too high in Carroll and the people pay an
unjust proportion of state taxes.
The Maryland state government is sup
ported mainly by license taxes, and the di-
rect tax on property ofl7a cents goes to the
cause of public education and to pay in-
terest on debt left by the Republican
party and to provide sinking fund for its
redemption.
But property is not assessed higher here,
in proportion, than in other counties. A
new assessment, however, is needed, and
the Democratic party has promised re-
valuation law next winter.
There has been very great decline in
property, most particularly in farming
lands, but we would remind the Sentinel
and the people that it has all taken place
under high protective tariffs passed by
Republican Congresses and signed by Re-
publican Presidents. Protection, the Re-
publicans proclaimed, antprosperity, but
we have seen tramps multiply and million
aires increase Before the Republican
party came into power tramp was scarcely
ever heard of, and millionaire was rare
even in our largest cities.
The Republican policy of Protection has
been tried for twenty-five years, and the
Democratic party is pledged to reverse this
policy. 1t has the power now, and before
another year the people will be living under
a tariff for revenue. Prosperity under it
will not be immediate, just as poverty and
distress were not immediate under the
Protective policy.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1893-11-04
Do You Want a New Assessment

Do You Want New Assessment !?
Every voter who desires new assess
meut of property should vote for the Demo
cratic nominees for the House Of Delegates.
They are pledged to a revaluation ofprop-
erty by the following resolution passed by
the convention that nominated them
'Resolred, That it is the sense of this con-
vention that the next General Assembly
should pass an assessment law for the reval-
uation, on an equitable basis, of all the prop
erty in the State justly taxable. "
The Republican nominees are not pledged
to anything, and if they were they would
not count for much in Democratic Legis-
lature. No one doubts that large ma
jority of both houses of the next General
Assembly will be Democrats, and it is es-
sential that Carroll, to have any influence
in framing an assessment law, should send
Democrats to the House of Delegates.

Said prominent director of the Western
MARYLAND Railroad recently to Globe re-
porter: ''The future of the Western Mary
land is bright AS soon as the present fnan-
cial depression wears off, and it becomes pos
sible to easily float bonds, some very import
ant improvements will be made. We intend
to build for certainty, the branch short cut
from Potomac Avenue Station to Five Forks,
near Shippensburg This will give shorter
route to the Pennsylvania Railroad by ten
miles, which we consider a big saving. When
the road is built, and it may be constructed
in year or two we, expect to run through
trains from the south to New York. We
also purpose to arrange matters so that we
NAV avoid the heavy tunnel charges we are
now paying at Baltimore, and we are also
going to reach tidewater, too. '-Hagersto,cn

The DEMOCRATIC ADVOCATE seems to
be invaluable to our esteemed neighbor, the
Sentinel. The ADVOCATE furnishes that
paper with large proportion of the themes
for its editorial lucubrations. 1t appears
to be the cade naecuns of the Sentinel,
without which that sombre sheet would be
solemnly didactic We are gratified that
our neighbor is so appreciative. We hope
to render it even greater aid in the future,
and give to it some reminders of many
things that are slowed away in the garnet
of its memory and covered over with the
cobwebs and dust of the past thirty years,
reminders, it may be, of facts and incidents
that it would much prefer to remain
undisturbed in fancied oblivion. We pre-
sent two or three of such in the present
issue

A Contrast.

When the Democratic party succeeded
to power in Carroll in 1867 the county
debt was about s84, 900 and there was not
cent in the treasury.
The debt today is but $40, 600, and there
is s25, sS4.70 of taxes due, $4,000 due
from Baltimore county and s25S.21 from
private individuals, making total of
s26,761.7O.
In other words, the county has assetsof
$4,000 over liabilities,
