Peoples Party Convention.

The Peoples party of the 5th Congress
sional District of Maryland held con-
vention in Washington July 25th, and
nominated Mr.. E. M. Buchard, of Hyatts-
vile, for the long term, and Mr.. Samuel
c. Herd, Gainesville, Baltimore county,
for the short term made vacant by the
death of Mr.. R. F. Brattan. The conven-
ton organized by electing Mr.. ]. w.
Mari, of Baltimore county, chairman,
and T. Garfield jenkins, secretary.
The convention adopted lengthy plat
form the concluding paragraphs of which
were:
eve reaffirm and indorse the Omaha
platform adopted by the peoples party
national convention, July 4, 1892.
eve remind the women of the fifth
district that they bear an equal interest i'll
good government, and as the supreme
need is for wisdom at the fountain head
of power in the home, they have field of
political effort co-extensive with their
intelligence and patriotism.
eve favor new assessment law for the
State of Maryland by which the burthen
of taxation may be equally distributed. )"
Speeches were made by the different
delegates on the necessity for radical
change in the money system, denouncing
Congress and the ring which they claim
dominates i'll Maryland politics. Mr.. N.
A. Dunning urged the necessity for
united action, and moved the appoint
ment of district committee. The fol-
lowing gentlemen were appointed !:
Jacob Kalb and ]. H. Gerwig, Cations
vile, Baltimore county; Charles Hall,
Lisbon, Howard county; ]. c. Howard
and T. Garfield Jenkins, Faulkner, Char
les county, and w. S. Bransome, Prince
Georges county. The committee will

gates were John w. Mari, Frank w.
Maisel, George Walters, Charles w.

The Sun Gives Away the Plot.

The Baltimore Sun of Tuesday
gives away the plot of the old
parties in an editorial from which
the following is clipped:
"The House has only to stand
firm. If the Senate refuses to act
an adjournmant may be had in
order that members of the House
may go to their constituencies for
the fall elections with their tariff
war cry still potent. By that time
public opinion will have its effect,
perhaps, upon the half dozen demo
cratic Senators who are now thwart-
ing the democratic party's will,
and the House bill may be passed
as early as January /, 1895"
The Senators are safe in their
seats while the members of the
House find themselves in a very
precarious situation but if they can
go to their constituents with the
plea that they did their part to-
wards "restoring prosperity to tn e
country" they hope to have fight
ing chance of being returned. The
people are pretty dull about seeing
through the tricks of the old party
politicians but we don't think they
they can be fooled by such chaff as
this.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1894-08-03
Denouncing German.

The democracy held meetings at
Sandy Springs and Frederick last
Monday and denounced German in
the most violent terms. The resolu-
lions passed by the Frederick meet
ing were vitriolic. The following
is the last brick bat they hurl at
"Senior'' Senator's devoted head
Third-That we demand that
Arthur p. German resign his seat
in the Senate of the United States
and give over misrepresenting an
honest people in the interest and
for the benefit of himself, corpora
tions, monopolies and trusts, and
we pledge ourselves to leave nothing
undone to GUST him from the seat
he disgraces should he fail to resign
the same.
The young attorneys who made
speeches at the Frederick meeting
were full of froth, steam and
blather.
The oddity about these democrat
performances who in the name of
democratic principles" and for the
betrayal of said democratic prin-
ciple" by Arthur p. German is
their anomalous endorsement OF
Grover Cleveland. If the National
democratic platform of 1892 is
authority for democratic prin-
ciples" Grover has been as much OF
a principle betrayer as German.
This democratic party is happy
family.
The midland journal. (Rising Sun, Md.) 1885-1947, 1894-08-03

Cleveland called an extra session of
congress, and together with the aid of
ninetenths of the Republicans in congress
repealed the silver purchasing law to re-
store confidence. But it didn't. Then
Carlisle issued and sold $50, 900, 600 gold
interest bearing bonds to New York bank
ers to replenish the gold reserve i'll the
treasury TO restore confidence. Things
went from bad to worse, strikes, lockouts
and rioting were the order of the day.
Cleveland then sent United States troops
into states i'll the face of the protests of
the governors, and into the city of
Chicago against the protests of the mayor
and chief of police, shot down American
citizens, men, women and children, and
declared martial law to restore confidence.
How long are people going to be fooled
by such old party humbuggery? 1t is
time for every citizen to enquire where
are we at. KANSAS Comm0Aer.

MAKING PROGRESS IN ALLEGANY ANE
GARRETT COUNTIES-CANDI-
DATES FOR CONGRESS.

DATES FOR CONGRESS-.
A. S. Dulin, representing the American
Economical Reform Association, who
has been agitating the populist movement
in Allegany and Garrett counties, return
ed to Cumberland on Monday He said
the peoples party convention to be held
i'll Rockville on August would undoubt-
eddy nominate candidate for Congress
i'll the Sixth district DIR. Dulin said the
present indications were that the populist
candidate would be from Allegany county.
Among the Allegany men prominently
spoken of in connection with the nomi-
nation are William Boden, a locomotive
engineer, of Cumberland Horace:Resley,
the Cumberland city clerk J. Senmes
Devecmon, attorney at law, of Cumber-
land, and Samuel Dixon, of Westernport.
Besides these, Mr.. Dulin said, there were
other Allegany men who would not allow
the mention of their names at present,
but who might yet consent to be candi-
dates.-Balto Sun.

the Tariff Fight Explained.

When robbers quarrel, honest men
come by their own. Cleveland's anxiety
for free coal and the row between him
and the Senators who oppose that are
now explained by the fact that Secretary
Lamont, ex-Secretary Whitney, and his
intimate friend, John E. Russell. Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor of Massa-
chusetts last fall, are the principal owners
of the Nova Scotia mines, which would
be able to dump all their produce into
New England at profitable prices were it
not for the duty on coal
Those mines were purchased by Whit
ney Lamont & Co. through Mr.. Charles
E. Bell, banker of Chicago, who is a
brother of the inventor of the telephone,
and, like him, son-in-law of Gardiner
G. Hubbard Bell got them an option on
the property until after the election in
November, 1892, and when it was found
that the House had seventy or eighty
Democratic majority they regarded it as
absolutely certain that coal would go on
the free list, and bought the mines.
Mr.. Russell is looking after the interests
of the company before the Conference
Committee, and goes over to the White
House to smoke cigar with the President
nearly every evening. But he has very
little hope of winning his fight, for Mr..
German, Mr.. Gibson and Mr.. Camden
own coal fields in West Virginia, Mr..
Brice has large mines i'll Tennessee, and
number of other Senators are equally
we'll interested. They have votes and he
has not. Thus we see that the whole
wrangle is one about the pockets
of the President and his capitalist
competitors in the Senate, and also that
this pink of purity Cleveland was specu-
lating upon his election. These facts,
which are undeniable, should sicken at
heart every worker that cast his ticket in
1892 for either Cleveland or Harrison.
The Irish1nen who support the Repub
lican or the Democratic parties in the
belief that Democrats or Republicans will
twist the British lions tail, and the Amer
lean jingoes, who likewise support those
parties, must have felt quite cheap when
they discovered that Queen Victoria is
stakeholder in the Pullman concern No
sane man believes that America is a free,
at least an independent, country. The
proofs are daily cumulating that go to
show that the country has been recon-
quered. Foreigners are leading holders
of stock and drawers of dividends from
American concerns-aye and the Crown
of England can now successfully do what
it failed in in 1916. At that time the peo-
pie refused to be squeezed, British troops
had to be sent to enforced the squeezing,
and they failed. Now, Queen Victoria
need not bother about sending troops to
collect tribute from America Democratic
and Republican Presidents do the dirty
work for her Shall this be longer toler-
ated THE People.
