A COLOR CORKER.

The lamentahle failure of the Democratic
leaders of Maryland to prevent their de
feat by the cry of 'miXed" schools, and
the holding up to public view the terrible
depravity of their Republican brethren on
the question of color, has just received a
signal illustration in the State of New
York, where colored man has been ele
waited to the bench by the Democratic
party.
Mr.. James c. Matthews colored, for
merly Recorder of Deeds at Washington,
d. c., under President Cleveland's first
administration, has been elected Judge of
the Recorders Court of Albany, which
office carries with it the powers of a
Supreme Court Judge Mr.. Matthews was
nominated and elected on the regular
Democratic ticket, and received a majority
of over two thousand votes. He holds the
highest judicial Office to which man of
his race has ever been elevated in this
country.
We call the especial attention of several
Democrats in this town, who are subject to
color spasms to the prominence of this
case

CHAs. c. CRoTHERs.
ELKToN, MD, Nov. IL.
With the senator's opinions as to the
best means Of resurrecting the Democratic
party, of course the WING, as Republican
journal, has nothing to do.
1t believes that Senator Crothers, and
not Senator Gibson, is right in his diagno-
sis of the disease that has paralyzed
Democracy.
The paralysis of the business and manu-
featuring industries OF this country, largely
traceable to the "blundering" of the pres
ent administration at Washington, was as
Senator Crothers suggests quite as potent
cause OF the revolution of Nov. 5, 1895,
as the offensive leadership of one man in
Maryland, even though his name be German.
New Jersey is Democratic state, it has
no German in it, yet it has swept out the
Democratic party.
Kentucky is Democratic state, it has
no German in it, yet it has defeated the
Democratic party.
We are aware that Mr.. German is a con-
venient scape-goat upon which to place the
present burden of Democratic sins.
1t is true, that the spectacle of Gormanism
in Maryland may have been, and is, an
unwelcome picture to Democrats in other
States and as warning to them, doubt
less did exert an evil influence upon the
party health in and outside of Maryland.
But as a party "weakener," Gormanism
was not after all the sole great cause that
underlies popular discomfort with De.
mocracy.
The Democratic party has attempted to
give the country tariff for revenue, and
although but partially successful in the
character OF the tariff reform, has failed to
raise sufficient revenue to meet the ordinary
expenses of the Government, and although
large amounts of bonds have been issued,
the administration cannot maintain the
gold reserve, and has been buying gold to
meet its current expenses, and putting the
additional burden Of the millions paid in
interest upon the people.
Certainly this must be one of the serious
''blunders" Senator Crothers refers to,
when be says, that his party lis greatly
weakened throughout the country and in this
State, and requires more than the swapping
of leaders,"
The fact is, that Senator Crothers is
shrewd enough to see, and-after the cleo
tion-frank enough to admit, that his party
nationally has been tried in the balance
and found wanting, and that the causes
which have led to Democratic disaster in
1898, will be equally disastrous in 1896,
because they are national, in character, and
not merely local like Gormanism.

THE TRUTH OUT AT LAST.

The WING has believed and commended,
that on square issue between the two
parties and what they represent, Maryland
has for years contained majority of
Republican voters.
1t is not necessary for present purposes
to state the reasons in detail, but simply to
call public attention to the fact, that the
summary OF registration of voters in the
State shows, that a majority of them are
Republicans, and that Maryland has been
kept in the Democratic line, by the skillfu
manipulation of the machine
Our reference to the subject at this time,
is corroborative of this fact in the opinion
of distinguished Maryland Democratic
leader, Mr.. Rasin, who is reported as follows
in Baltimore newspaper:
"Those people who think that it will be
an easy matter to swing Maryland back
into the Democratic column, do not know
what they are talking about. The defeat
our people suffered on Tuesday last has
thoroughly dcmoraliZed the party organi-
Zation and the decentralization will increase
as time passes and the offices are filled by
Republicans. 1t has taken many years to
perfect the organization in this city and
State, and now that it has been knocked to
pieces at one blow it will take many more
years to get together another one that will
prove effective and be able to recapture the
State and city governments. Only the
most glaring mistakes on the part OF The
Republicans, and they will be very careful,
will turn the city and State back to where
they have been for y years.
Very few people know it, but do, that
without our perfect organization, Maryland
would have gone Republican at every cleo
ton since 1873, and the city would have
done likewise. The ma orities we have
secured have been brought about by the use
of the machine, us it is called and without
that machine every Governor for 30 years
and every Mayor during the same period
would have been Republican. The election
machinery alone was worth 5000 votes tC
the party, and that, taken with the other
work done by the organization, has given
the Democrats control of the State If il
had not been for the organization and its
work, Cleveland would not have got the vote
of this State in ISL. 1883, or 1892. As il
was, in 1sSi and 1888 it was close shave
But the work of the organization saved the
day, as it has always done. Last year the
hardest work we have done for 20 years
was done to elect Mr.. C0wen to Congress,
and then the people who were hardest tC
manage were the regulars who opposed
Mr. Cowen because of his hostility to the
organization in previous elections. In fact
the hardest people to keep in line from now
on will he the old regulars who are badly
demoralized by their defeat. The truth is,
l do not expect to see Maryland redeemed
while live. Many years will pass before
acompact organization can be effected, nc
matter who may be selected as leaders.
"The only thing that can save the party
now will be some grave blunder on the
party of the victors and they are too shrewd
to commit any very serious Mistakes

SENATE MAY BE REPUBLICAN,.
Returns From Calvert and Queen
AnneS Counties.

AnneS Counties.
News received at Republican State head
quarters Monday makes it look highly
lrobab that the Republicans will control
the Senate. Hon. Thomas parran, of Cal
vert, reported that there was no question:
ing the evidence that could be submitted
in behalf of DR. Samuel H. Bind, Republi
can. The seating of DR.. Bird would alone
tie the Senate with Senator Bruce Of Bal
timore, probable fourteenth with the Re
publicans when it came to voting on many
measures.
Nj. Joseph Mallalieu, of Queen AEnes
county, was also at headquarters, in con-
sultation with Captain IL. Clay NALL at
Republican State headquarters with refer
encc to the course to be pursued in contest
ing the return rs elected OF the entire
Democratic ticket in Queen Annes. A re-
count has been demanded and it seems
probable, from the evidence at hand, that
Hon. w. =. Finley's margin of thirty
majority will be wiped out. Mr.. Mallaleu
expects to be seated as Senator from Queen
Aunes, and there seems also a fair prospect
of seating the Republican candidates for
County Commissioner and Register OF
Wills, respectively, Messrs. W. W. Bryan
and Charles f. Rich. The Democrats re-
turned as elected are Messrs. John f. God
win and Finley Roberts.
The seating of Mr. Mallaleu would give
the Republicans Il clear control without
being dependent upon Mr.. Bruce.
News was received from Hartford, more
over, that Mr.. S. \. Williams, Republican
candidate for the Senate, would contest
the seat OF Mr. Michael, Democrat, re-
turned as elected Ivy small margin,
The situation in the Senate is further
complicated by the sudden death of Senator
Pinkney j. Bennett of Carroll county, a
Democrat. Mr.. Bennett has just been re-
elected by majority of only forty-eight over
his Republican competitor DR.. J. J. Weaver.
Mr.. Bennett was Il strong candidate in
Carroll, and should the Republicans at
the special election to be held to fill the
vacancy, succeed in electing their candi
date, they will have a very excellent pros
poet of securing Il small majority in the
Senate and DO able to organize that body

IN view of the very eXtravagant claims
or services rendered, now being made
upon Governor Lowndes, by the indepen-
dent Democratic journals, it would be
rather difficult matter to see where the
Republicans come in, and whether after all
they are to reap the fruits OF their recent
victory.
For instance one journal suggests, that
the Board of Election Supervisors of Balt-
more, should be made up of one indepen-
dent Democrat, one Republican, and one
regular Democrat.
From a purely Democratic standpoint
this is doubtless very excellent non-parti-
IAN suggestion, but it would hardly seem
to meet the views Of Republicans OF aver
age intelligence, and certainly not those of
Republican Governor, however fairly dis
posed to an element of voters who have
aided him in his election.

cally to several newspaper correspondents
on "Wednesday, that he is not candidate
for the L. S. Senate as the successor of Mr..
Gibson. The Governor thinks he was
elected such by the people of Maryland for
purpose, and that he would not relin-

accomplished. Gwen if it were possible, {"

would be a Republican, would still refuse

The Fireman's Ball,

OF which mention was made in our
last issue, is to be the attraction at
town hall on Wednesday evening, of
next week. 1t is under the auspices
of and for the benefit of the Norris
vile fire department and as matter
of local interest deserves a very full
patronage. There are a good many,
of course, who may not dance, per-
haps never did in their lives. To
such, an opportunity to patronize is
given by way of supper tickets at
$100 per couple. The full bill, ball
and supper, is $3.50 per couple, but
it should not be understood that
tickets for dancing alone at so cts.
per couple can be bought. Come out
and encourage the boys and if you
can't go at all why not help the mat
ter along with a slight financial aid :?
The supper will be served in the Ma
sonic banquet hall over the town
hail.
The committee of introduction is
composed OF three engineers of the
departmental W. Webster, A. j.
Smith and J. A. Bundy. The floor
managers are FL. j. Dwinell, Fred

mittee of invitation is to include
everybody.

The Revival Meetings.

The union revival meetings hhvr
continued during the week with d
very full attendance and a con.
siderable interest manifested. Sun
day saw very large congregations at
the Cong'l church, Evangelist Whit
tier preached three impressive dis
courses. At the morning service
spirited singing was a feature, a
large choir rendered selections, while
a solo by Prof, Whipple and a duet
by Mr.. Marvin and Miss Peake were
given with good effect. Services Mon
day afternoon and evening were held
at the Cong'l church yesterday and
this Wednesday afternoon and even
ing at the Methodist church, Thurs
day and Friday afternoon and even
ing at the Cong'l church.
The special work of last Thursday
met with good results and an in
creased attendance. At all the meet
ings there has been an evident inn
preston running under outward de-
monstration. The Evangelist, Mr..
Whittier, has decided to remain here
this week or at least as late as Fri
day evenings service, which will
probly be'the last here. After few
days rest he begins series of meet
ings at Derby, the middle of next
week.
The closing up of all business places
last Thursday unfortunately did not
meet complete success. 1t appears
that M. A. Stone & Co.'S name was
omitted, by an oversight, from the
lists made out and taken by the three
different persons who visited the mer-
chants to see if they would close from
2: 30 to 4: 80 and at p. m. Each
one supposed the other had the name
and the result was they had no direct
invitation until the hour of closing.
L. B. Boynton & Co.'S store was also
open in the evening, but all other
business places closed a misunder-
standing in both cases was thecause.
