False Logic.

The following is fair specimen offalse
reasoning so in vogue by the plutocratic
papers. In deprecating the platform of
the REPUBLICAN party of California, the
Philadelphia Press says
"The State is producer of gold, and
now that hydraulic mining has been re-
sumed, its yield of the yellow metal will
steadily increase, but if there is to be free
coinage of silver gold will be driven out
of circulation. California can hardly be
ready to aid i'll depreciating its own
products
The present gold coin price of bullion
is sustained by the Bank of England,
which pays for all gold bullion the price
of gold coin, and every other nation is
doing the same thing. If the United
States were to demonetize gold the price
of the bullion would not vary farthing's
worth. The only influence the remon-
citing of silver would have on gold would
be to reduce its purchasing power by
adding to the volume of the worlds
money to the extent of the production OF
silver. If California was able to produce
an ounce of gold for every sixteen ounces
of silver that is produced in this country
the bullion value of gold would remain al
the coin price as now, but the purchasing
power of gold would decline to precisely
the extent that the coinage of all of oul
silver would brine II down SrcI, result
would be inevitable. There could be ne
difference in the result of coming all O
our silver, and converting it into gold i
this were possible ; viz, one ounce of golt
for every pound of silver. The purchas
ing power of gold would decline in eithe
case. But the inendacious daily press
presuming on popular ignorance, is con
stantly publishing such statements. TIL,
daily press as the dissemination of false
hood is the devils master piece

1t is stated that Senator Charles c.
Crothers of Cecil county will be a for
midable candidate for Senator Gibson S
seat at the next session of the General
Assembly. Mr.. Crothers was noted as
one of the ablest men in the last State
Senate, and his term Will las until afte +
the next session.-CelH Meas.
'Rah for Crothers and the Sth district
and the 'barrens." "Can any good thing
come out of''-the barrens Barrens or
bushtown is the meaning of the word
nazareth" The Meas continues its
comments,
MIR. Crothers is looked upon as one of
the rising men i'll the Democratic party,
and although he understands practical
politics he is more of lawyer and bust
ness man than politician.
He must be the best lawyer at the Elk
ton bar if that's true, by good deal.
Practical politics." What is that?
buying votes? He never can enter the
populist fold by that ladder, if that
is practical politics." and by that
party is to be the only road to political
distinction in future. Grover the Fat is
the last of the democratic line; and the
Chauncy Depew's, Vanderbilt's and such,
the head and front of the republican
party, the people are tired of.

..The Tariff Silver Policy"

The Cecil Whie, that political fakir, is
out in its last issue with new bamboozle
under the above comical caption. This
latest "What Is IT, for the republican
party would make horse laugh, espec-
tally if the horse had read the silver
articles in recent issues of the Wing. A
little while ago silver was so purely imag-
mary that it was merely vacuum.
This is all changed, however, and a
"correlative" policy of silver and protec-
ton is the dying effort of old parties to
further bamboozle voters
The following is specimen brick
from this curious article of last week s
Wing:
eve all know that the live issues ofthe
next Presidential campaign will be largely
financial issues. The question of bi-
metallism and free silver, the question Of
safe, convenient and elastic currency,
the question of Federal taxation for rev
enue and for protection, and now the new
question of treating silver and protection
correlatively, as recently formulated by
ex-Speaker Reed and endorsed by nulner
GUS other national leaders of the Repub
lican party, are all phases of the one great
money question"

The Whisky Trust is largely in
terested in the increase of the tax.
1t is estimated that the trust now
has on hand 20,O00,000 gallons and
an increase in the tax of 20 cents
means a profit of $4,O0O,O0O to the
trust.
But before the bill will take effect
the trust will have opportunity to
largely increase it's holdings. 1t is
for this reason that the Whisky
Trust will be so largely benefited
by this increased tax that it is GER
tain to be adhered to by the De-
mocrats. Whatever else may
happen the interests of a trust arc
certain to be cared for by the
Democratic Senators regardless OF
the effect on the people.
The above extract is from a re-
publican paper and is doubtless
true, but when the republican party
is in power in congress they act il
precisely the same manner-tavor
ing legislation the trusts ask for
Which of these evils therefore
should be chosen? The wise voter
will say neither. Are voters con
sidering the weighty responsibility
which will rest on them next fall

David Bennett Hill, the senior
New York senator delivered another
cyclone speech in the senate last
week, in which he denounced the
democratic party, their tariff bill
and especially the income tax por-
ton of the bill. There is great
room for denunciation but Hill
isn't whit better than the worst
democrat in his party. The people
do not forget his unsavory history
as boss in New York politics.
There are few if any more infamous
political records than Hill's. But
the plutocrat papers, especially the
republican party papers are prais-
ing up his speeches as most able,
especially his TRADE against the
income tax. That pleases Wall
Street and all the graball million
aire gang. HILLS harangues against
the income tax will hardly con-
vince any one that an income tax
is not one of the most righteous and
Just taxes that can be levied.

The whole cost of government for

United States, National, State and

Census Bureau was, in round num-
Der, one thousandan forty millions.
or about sixteen dollars a head all
round, including the babies. 1t is
also estimated that the debtor class
paid to the creditor class as inter
est upon loans and discounts, "A sum
approXimating one thousand five
hundred millions. When it is con-
sidered that every dollar of this was
taken from the productive labor of
the country that feeds and supports
all, some appreciation may be felt of
the enormous burdens it is called
upon to bear, and the necessity that
exists that government shall be so
administered as to serve the inter
ests of the wealth producers in
every possible way.-Cecil Demo-
crat.
But you see, friend, the ''wealth
producers" continue to vote for the
two old parties to stick it on to
them, and they do. When you get
what you vote for you ought to be
satisfied.

Came Back a POpulist.
DIR. JOHN MORRIS CONVERTED WHILE ON
A WESTERN TRIP-HIS VIEW OF
THE POLITICAL. OUTLOOK

A WESTERN TRlP-HIS VIEW OF
THE POLITICAL OUTLOOK.
DIR. John Morris, who was one of the
Maryland delegates to the convention OF
the American Medical Association at San
Francisco and who was an old time, dyed
in-the wool democrat, has returned to
Baltimore confirmed populist.
The doctor says his conversion was
brought about after conversing with all
kinds and conditions of people in all parts
of the West He talked with the boys
who BACKED his boots, the BARRIERS who
shaved him, the hotel porters, business
men and professional men, great and
small and they all with a startling unan.
unity, he says, condemned the democratic
party and blamed it for the industrial
depression which pervades the entire
country west of the Rocky mountains.
The silver legislation, which they claim
was directed by Wall street, is, they think,
the principal cause of the depression
The West wants money in unlimited
quantities, and their only hope, they
informed the doctor, was i'll the unlimited
coinage of silver. Now that democratic
Congress has declared against free silver
their mines have shut down and the de-
preston has extended into all branches of
business. "The result has been," said Dr.
Morris, that nearly all the democrats
have united with the populists, and pre-
dict that not single democrat will be
elected to Congress next fall west of the
Rocky mountains unless the democrats
will unite with the populists and divide
the candidates"
Speaking of the industrial interests of
the far West DIR. Morris said that their
condition could not be worse. Com
plant of dull times was heard i'll every
city visited, and the people have no hope
of an early improvement in their condi-
ton. At Spokane Falls, Wash. where
remained three days, business was prac-
tically dead and the population was
rapidly moving away. In the past year
ten thousand people have left that city,
and now nearly every other store and
saloon is vacant. The driver of one of
the hotel buses said that affairs have
grown SO bad that people will not ride in
free buses, and doubted if they would
even drink free whiskey. The barber
who shave me said that the money | paid
him was the first he had earned for two
days. The same conditions prevail at
Seattle, Denver and other one time pros
porous cities. Baltimore Sun.

ATHLETIC SPORTS.
Outdoor Recreation Essential to Sound
National Health.

outdoor Recreation Essential to Sound
National Health.
1t is now, for poetic purposes, the
young mans fancy still lightly turns
to thoughts of love, but actually and
for prose purposes it turns to thoughts
of base ball and other out-of-door sports.
For the same mysterious influence that
sends the life-giving sap upward into
the trees and brings leaves, buds and
blossoms out from their winter hiding
places, awakens to more active move
ment the sluggish blood of human be-
ings, and makes everybody wish to get
out of the narrow confines of brick
walls into the free, fresh, uncircum-
scribed domains of nature. The old as
well as the young feel this impulse. but
the latter have surplus capital of
strength and spirits that must find a
vent in exercises requiring skill and
bodily activity.
There was a time when Americans
devoted too little attention to physical
development, but we are fortunately
now coming to understand that such
recreations are essential to sound ma
tional health, and that every form of
sport which takes and keeps people in
the open air as much as possible is,
when conducted under proper and
reasonable restrictions, valuable and
important. Oxygen and exercise are
as important factors in national
greatness as universities and col
leges. The vast quantities of
fresh air and the immense amount
of exercise which Englishmen have
been in the habit of taking from time
immemorial have had as much to do
with England's greatness as any other
cause. 1t has not been a triumph of
mind over matter, but of matter and
mind combined. Every good thing is
liable to abuse, and so are all the out
of-door recreations which begin with
the advent of warm weather. There
is such thing as taking too much ex-
ercise, and cevoting more time and
money to sports than one has right
to devote. But, in the main their in
fuence is good, not only on those who
participate in them, but on the com.
munity in general. They create an in
terest in physical powers and skill

of doors as spectators who would other.

The strikers complain of laws which
discriminate in favor of the employers
against the employees. If this complaint
be just, the very obvious remedy is for
the employees to vote for representative
men of their own class for Legislators,
who would repeal and reenact laws i'll
accordance with their ideas of justice.
This obviously common sense plan would
avoid all the loss and frightful scenes
incident to strikes Strikes are no remedy

Enough filth is being uncovered
in the city of New York to start an
epidemic of cholera or yellow fever.
And the ease is not much if any
better in Washington. The sugar
trust has bought up the Senate body
and breeches, and is about turning
its attention to the House SO as to
make sure of putting the senate bill
through when Cleveland will sign
the bill with avidity, let ii he load
ell down with sugar trust, or any
other trust schedules. Cleveland
is as deep in the Doodle business as
any Wall Street Senator, and he
cares little for what Hill or any
body else says. Ills pockets are
lined with sugar and other trust
stocks and with his $50, 900 salary
will retire rich in pocket and rotten
in morals. There has never been
a greater sham and fraud worked
off on the American people than
the present congress and Cleveland.
