Mr.. HONEY FOR SENATOR
The Reason Why He Wanted Baker for
the GOVernOrShlp.
TO SHELVE THE PEOPLES IDOL
Say the Political Wiseacres--Why Mr..
Honey Feared That He Would be De-
feated I'm His Aspirations to 60 to
Washington.

Why did Mr.. Honey nominate David
S. Baker for governor
This conundrum has been puzzling
many minds of late. Every one knows
Mr.. Honey is the shrewdest politician in
his parly. Every one Knows, too, that
recently he failed in none of his plans ex-
cept where the votes of the people were
necessary to their success.
There must be some plan in this move
OF Mr.. Honey. or why does he select as
the nominee for the highest office in the
state man who has lent himself to no
faction and who is likely to be ruled by
no one put himself should he chance tO
betelectedi Mr.. Baker has been so far
al owe Mr.. Hoi.ey and his methods in the
past, thai the tw men are on an entire
ly different plane as far as reputation
Ioes.
Mr.. Honey never puts any one ahead
ot himself unless he wants % rule or
ruin him. He can't rule Mr.. Baker. III
he wants To ruin him where does Mr..
Hcn,y come in Rumor has at last set
lied this question and 1t is made plain by
two sentences.
For governor. David s. Baker. For
United States senator, Samuel X Honey.
That's the method ia Mr.. Honey's mad
ness, say the wise men OF Democracy.
MIR. Honey's days of success at the polls
are over, but he still retains absolute
control OF his party. He can get elected
member or the national committee, and
IL his party gets n majority in tire gen.
eral assembly he thinks he can succeed
Senator Nathan 4. Dixon.
Mr.. Honev realiZss Mr. Bak ker's
strength, both in his party aud before the
people. He has never openly sought
office; he has been turned down at times
when 1.-The people" seemed TO want him,
anu his social standing added TO these
negative qualities would give him great
power in a caucus which is to select au
available candidate to put forward as q
United States senator. Aristocratic con
nections, wealth and lack OF enemies
All these are Mr.. Bakers. but not Mr.
uIney's.
VIII the people support such a
schemei Is the man from Newport who
has been twice cast from power by his
own townspeople TO be placed in a posi-
tion where the state may he shamed by
his candidacy for a higher office as the
gilt OF his party machinery? The cleo
tion of Mr.. Baker means the further su.
premacy OF Mr.. Honey.

his influence to have Crow appointed
to place in the Custom House.
A mole bare faced piece OF bribery
has rarely ever been heard of even
in this bribery cursed county; and
yet the Cecil Democrat, says Mr..
Charles Correct" Crothers is the
man to be relied on to pass laws
prohibiting bribery.
Besides Grow, We hear of a dozen
or so Democrats in various parts of
the county, who have been promised
places in the Custom House, i they
will work for and elect the correct"
Mr. Crothers
We deem it our duly to wa
these gentlemen, that there are only
two or three places in the Custom
House, which can fall to Cecil
county, and there are several mem
bers OF the Croshers family not yet
provided for, and quite enough 10
fill all the places Cecil can expect to
get.

the correct thing to do, is to pro
vide first OF all for the family"

II would be difficult, we thirk, to
convince any voter of Cecil county
upon any other than strictly partizan
grounds, why J Albert Boyd should
be elected Sheriff OF Cecil county
oyer Clinton !. White. The former
has scarcely had cooling" time
since ne left his warm berth at the
county jail, and he is not entitled to
the office upon the doctrine of his
own party-rotatlon in office. Be
cause the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company will not restore him to his
position as baggage master, consti-
tutes no reason why the people OF
Cecil county are under obligation to
take care of him.
On no other ground than because
he is the Democratic candidate, can
his claim to a reelection be de
Tended.
From all we can learn, a great
many voters OF his own party, do not
think this sufficient reason for their
helping to put him back in the
Sheriff S office.
