MoIer-Boteler.

One of the most brilliant occasions of

Moler and Miss Rua Belle Boteler at
Petersville, Md, in st. Marks Episcopal

Haunted.

A haunted house in these practical and I'M
romantic days is something of rarity, but
an individual haunted with the idea that his
ailment is incurable is parsonage frequent
ly met with. Disbelief In the ability of med
icine to cure is only a mild form of mono
mania, although In some cases repeated fail
ures to obtain relief from many different
sources would almost seem TO justify the
doubt. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters has DEM
onstrated its ability to overcome dyspepsia
constipation. liver and kidney trouble, ma
larial complaints and nervousness, and It's
recorded achievements in the curative line
ought at least to warrant It's trial by anyone
troubled with either of the above ailments,
even although his previous efforts TO OBTAIN
remedial aid have been fruitless. Used with
persistence, III Bitters will conquer the most
obstinate cases.

srAv.Ar-AoMEs DID 1T.

1t is not worth while to try to min
imize the defeat that came to the Dem
ocratic party on the 9th Of November,
but when the figures are closely studied
the emphatic rebuke given to the Dem
ocrats contains no encouragement for
the Republicans. We are firmly of
the opinion that the defeat of the Dem
ocrats at the polls was not because of
the action they took in passing tariff
legislation, but rather because that
party was so slow in acting and at the
last turned out mongrel bill instead
of a genuine reform measure. The
Republicans made very slight increase
in their majorities because Disguised
Democrats stayed at home and thus
showed their resentment at the failure
of their party to keep its pledges, some
of them even going so far as to vote
the Republican ticket. These dissat-
isfed Democrats have now expressed
themselves, and they will be found
supporting their party as warmly as
ever in 1896.
Frederick C. Waite, of the national
statistical association, estimates that
nearly 100000 voters stayed at home
this year, almost all of them Democrats.
Virginia's Democratic vote was about
10000 short, North Carolina $4,000,
and so with many other States. In
our own State the Republicans held
their own and got their natural increase
of about 7 or 8 per cent, The Demo
cratic vote fell about $4,000 short of
what it should have been.
During the next two years the Re-
publicans will be the targets, and when
1896 rolls around the independent
members of that party will probably
be as much disguised as Democrats
were this year, the Democrats will be
united once, more, and we will certain
ly have as fair a chance to win as we
ever had before.

The annual report Of the Baltimore

been, for example, notable improve
ments at Harper's Ferry where a new
steel bridge, tunnel and station have
been brought into use.
The Belt Railroad in Baltimore, II
is noted, has been delayed in construc-
ton by legal difficulties in obtaining
right of way, but these difficulties have,
it is believed, been overcome, and this
important line is expected to be in full
operation in the early spring.

AS we pointed out last week, our
Constitution will prevent the Repub-
lican Legislature from gerrymandering
the State. But it contains another
provision which bears directly upon
our present situation, and which is not
only mischievous but absurd as well. In
the federal Cong ess-as in the legls-
latures,of other States so far as we are
advised-a two-thirds vote in each
house is required in order to pass a
bill over the veto of the executive.
On this point article 7, section IA, OF
our Constitution provides as follows /:
If the Governor do not approve any
bill sent to him for his signature, che
shall return it, with his objections, to
the house in which it originated, which
house shall enter the objections at large
upon its journal, and proceed to re-
consider it. If, after such reconsider
alton, a majority Of the members elect
ed to that House agree to pass the bill,
it shall be sent, together with the OBJ
iections, to the other house, by which
it shall likewise be reconsidered and
if approved by majority Of the men,
berS elected to that house, it shall be-
come law, Notwithstanding the OBJ
iections of the Governor. The obvious
effect is to render the veto power a
mere mockery, and to place the ex-
ecutiye completely at the mercy of a
partisan majority in the Legislature
for it is absurd to suppose that they
will be influenced by his objections.
Neither time nor labor should be spared
in the effort to secure an amendment
which will correct this evil. In the
meantime the duty devolves on the
Democratic minority to oppose with all
their might any Republican legislation
whose object is mere partisan advan-
tage, and to make it so odious in the
sight of all fair-minded men that they
will hold the authors to rigid account
ability and infict severe punishment
upon them in 1896.

THERE has been some slight advance
in the price of wheat during the past
few weeks, but there is little hope that
it will go higher than sixty cents.
There is one insurmountable barrier to
good prices for wheat, and that is over
production. The farmers of this coun-
try produce far more wheat than our
people can consume, The price OBJ
tanned for the surplus, which is sold to
foreigners, fixes the price of the whole.
The foreigners are prohibited by the
tariff from paying for our products in
their products-from making a mutu-
ally advantageous trade-and are
forced to yield up their precious gold
for what we send them. Naturally
they buy as little as possible from a
country that buys as little as possible
from them. The farmers have no
right to kick, however. All over this
country two weeks ago they voted in
favor of Congressman who are in favor
of continuing this high tariff. If they
are too stupid or too prejudiced to
know what is for their own interests
they must accept the natural result.

THE more ardent silver men have
long denounced gold as a money metal
on the ground that it is peculiarly SUBJ
ject to the manipulations of "Wall
Street" to the loss and confusion Of
the rest of the country. Silver, they
have contended, on the other hand
is a substance of virtues as free and
far-reaching as those of fresh air and
sunshine and failure and disgrace
must inevitably attend the efforts Of
the money kings" to tamper with its
unspeakable value. We have no de-
sire to take hand in this controversy.
But we are curious to know how these
enthusiasts will receive the well au-
thenticated reported that trust is
forming which is to control the output
of silver and so regulate its price at
their own sweet will all over the
world.
