Curious Old Law ia Maryland.

Maryland has n peculiar statute IA
relic of the ancient days when the
planters ruled the State providing
that in the choice of United States
Senators, one must be selected from
the eastern shore OF Chesapeake Bay
and the other from the counties west
Of the bay. In the old days there was
something of an equality Of the popu-
~lation, but at present the eastern shore
counties have only 1856 900 people,
against 905, 900 in the western coun-
ties, and the inequality is SO glarlns
that there is q movement to have the
law repealed. Hartford Times.
