The RrpubIican Party I'm virginia.

"The King is dead. long live the
Kirg" This is way of stating that
there IS always a king-never a real IN
terregnum-under a monarchicai govern
ment. We might employ the same form
OF words to indicate that although Cen
eral Malone IS dead. "A man who would
like 10 be his successor as the
head Of the opposition party may

Because he had palpitation of the

the pulsations OF the heart were
more violent than ever. Mr.. Allen

concluded that, if tobacco wasn't tn

and now there is no more distress in

remarkable part Of Mr.. Aliens

forego smoking anyhow, and dis
covered that Ripans Tabules not
only satisfied the longing for tobacco,
which all smokers are familiar with.
but at first he actually looked forward
with plea sure TO the three periods OF

The WrangIe In Maryland.

No state canvass now in progress IL at
tracing more attention than that in
MARYLAND. MIR. Hurst is the Democratic
and Mr. Lowndes the Republican noWl-
nee for Governor.
II IS not alleged that Hurst is bad
man: the opposition TO him, so far las IL
comes from Democrats. is because he was
nominated by the members OF our party
who are known as German men,. AT
the head of this opposition Is the Baiti-
more Sun which has hitherto been known
as Democratic, though never aggressively
partisan. Ii is now, however, doing us
michtiest TO defeat Hurst, because 1t
holds that that would be reproof 10
German.
From the fact that the sun Is supposed
to be very CLOSE to Mr.. Cleveland there
are many who argue that ii represents
his views in this matter. On the other
hand. Senator Gray. who recently made
a speech In favor Of Hurst, gave as his
oninion that the President would be much
distressed should Maryland 80 Repubii-
can on the eve OF a presidential election.
Mr.. Gray is supposed 10 De as near the
President as the Sun is.
IL is. however, admitted that the re-
tlcence OF Mr.. Cleveland towards Hurst
is hurtful to the cause.
Great sums Of money have been raised
and are being spent in Maryland to COM
pass the defeat OF the Democratic ticket.
Much OF this is contributed by the anti
German faction. but, without question,
the rest comes from rich Republicans in
the North.
SO far as we can gather. the contest
in Maryland is going TO be very close.
though during the past week the Demo
Gratis have aroused themselves 10 the i'm
pending danger TO degree that argues
well.
The hopes OF the Republican national
leaders are that discord and dissens.on
in the Democratic ranks in New York.
Kentucky. and Maryland will give those
States TO the Republicans this November,
and cause the Democrats To enter the
presidential campaign next year under
very disheartening circumstances But,
We trust and believe that they are reck-
oning without their hosts. Usually the
greater the danger TO our party. the
tory out OF the jaws OF defeat May II
be so In these three important and In.
nuential States. ..

Secretary Hcrbcrt's speech.

on business principles. "There is sara

mans currency. for greenbacks or Treas
urv notes cost but little more than the
paper that they are printed on. whereas
silver has intrinsic value, and costs an
immense sum of money.
Secretary Herbert said truly that the
question the people are considering now
is whether or not the United States Gov
eminent ought TO undertake the free
and unlimited coinage of silver. Yes.
that is the question which the free-sil-
verites press upon the attention Of the
people And 10 this proposition the people
Of the United States are not going 10
give their assent. They ought. how
ever, to advocate the free coinage OF
silver AT a ratio TO be fixed by inter
national agreement. This would be a
compromise measure.
Mr. Herbert called the attention Of his
hearers to the fact. which We have often
stated. that there is no free-silver sem

in New England. none in New
