That HOrr-Harvey Debate.

1t was complete victory for Harvey
the first round The gold bugs thought
because Laughlin failed to down Harvey
with argument, that they could pit Horn
against him and do him up with wit,
blow, buster, ridichle and bluff. But
Horn has failed as completely as did
Laughlin. In fact, Horn fell down so flat
the first day that the gold bug papers
commenced to try and kill the effect of
the discussion by making fun of it and
calling it humbug.
Harvey is proving himself master in
debate as we'll as with his pen. Some of
his expressions are grand. He meets his
antagonists boisterous, and frequently
ngentlemanly thrusts with digni6ed,
manly bearing that is admirable. We
regret that we cannot more fully describe
the principal features of the affair, but
will have to defer it to future issues. Suf-
flee to say, it is Waterloo, a Bull Run
for the goldites, and they will hardly
consent to another trial of strength.
A verbatim report of the debate will be
out in book form in few days, and the
Tribune will have it on sale. The list
price will be so cents but we will send it,
postage paid, to any of our readers on
receipt of 80 cents. Orders taken now.
Get one and see how Harvey did him up.

Democratic Convention.

The Democratic County Convention
held at Elkton on Tuesday to select dele
gates to the State Convention, was, to use
an old saying, "short and sweet like
roast maggot," requiring about fifteen
minutes to transact business in, which
was conducted with neatness and dispatch.
The convention was called to order at
II O'Clock by A. L. Crothers. Timothy
Kelley, sof the Seventh district, was ap-
poiated temporary chairman, and DIR. ].
H. Jenness, of the Sixth district, tempo
rary secretary.
A committee on credentials was ap-
pointed by each district naming mem
Der, which found everything cut accord
ing to the regimental pattern and fitted
to T.
Upon recommendation of the commit
tee on credentials the temporary officers
were made permanent ones.
After roll call it was agreed that the
delegates present be authorized to cast the
full vote of the district.
Geo. w. Taylor. of the Ninth district,
offered the following resolution, which
was adopted:
Resolved, That We confirm the ticket named by
the democratic convention on the fourth day of
June last heartily recommending it to the favor
able consideration of the people of Cecil county.
The chair then ordered that the con-
vention proceed to the election of dele
egates to the State convention.
Mr.. H. H. Gilpin, of the Third district,
then offered the following resolution,
which was adopted:
Resolved That John S. Writ Charles C. Crothers,
DR.. F. II. Mackie, Andrew Anderson, william T.
Fryer, Samuel c. Rowland, VIM. w. Michigan,
George w. Taylor and Charles Shippers be, and
they are hereby. elected delegates to the demo-
cratic State convention to assemble in Baltimore
tomorrow, the 31st day of July with power to the
said delegates, or majority of those present AZ
said convention to cast the vote for Cecil county
for candidate and upon all other questions that
may arise, the said delegates being hereby in,
structed to vote as a unit.
There being no further business the
convention adjourned.
There you have it, and the only ques-
ton which suggests itself is, where do the
people come in? Their power is trans
ferred to these nine men who are empow-
cred, or majority of them, to cast fonr
votes for the three candidates to fill State
offices.
Our delegate system has become as
mechanical as the manufacturing or
transportation business. The convention
represents the locomotive, the boss rep
resents the engineer. and the boss gets his
orders from the same corporations that
order the engineer. Both receive pay
from the same treasury.

Direct Legislation.

About all the leading papers of
the reform movement are advocat-
ing the referendum or the referring
of laws to the people to pass judg-
ment on by popular vote before
they take effect. Nor can there be
any safety to popular government
till the referendum and initiative,
with proportional representation
become fundamental principles of
the government, state and national.
Under this system not one forth of
the laws which clog the statutes
books would be enacted. Congress
would get through with its sessions
in three months, the national
capital and capitol would be cleared
ofdrunken members, scarlet women,
bribing Hobbies, and the President
would be reduced from a usurping
despot, the roll Cleveland is acting,
to a plain magistrate whose bust
ness would be to execute the laws
which the people ordered him to
do or get out of the White House
at their imperial mandate.
No president or governor of a
state should be armed with the
veto. That should be kept in the
hands of the people.

Their Geese are all Swans.

1t is the chronic failing of party
organs to deal out such mess OF
falsome flattery of the newly nomi-
mated ticket, and at the same time
attempt to besmirch the opposition
party ticket; that no person pays
any regard to their professed
opinions. The gush for one and
rot for the other will be conspicu-
Gus from now till the election is
over. These bound boys called
party organs are entirely incapable
of an honest opinion if the party is
interested.

There were shipped from Lamb
sons Station a few weeks ago to
lumber dealers in Baltimore, about
25 large walnut 3ogs which had
been gathered from a large territory
in Kent and Cecil counties. These
logs after being hauled to the
station in the trough" were hewn
down then planned with a drawing
knife until all the bark and "sap"
had been taken off and nothing but
the dark wood or heart was left
after which the ends were sawed
off and painted with thick coat of
red paint, to keep them from crack
ing.
The logs are shipped to Balti-
more, thence reshipped to England.
A great deal of walnut timber has
been taken from this part of the
county much of it sold to the
Parker gun manufacturers for gun
stocks.

Democratic State Ticket.

The result of the Democratic
State Convention held in Baltimore
on Wednesday was the nomination
of John E. Hurst, Germans selec-
ton, for Governor, on the first bal
lot; Charles c. Crothers, of Elkton,
for Attorney General (Hurrah for
the old Eighth y and for Comp
trOller, Marion DeKalb Smith.
The ticket is all German and the
ants are fighting mad. The Sun
pulled all the hair out of its able
head and Hayes went to Germans
room and gave him 'piece of his
mind" very rough piece. Cor
man smole smile and said moth
ing. John S. Writ placed CrOthers
in nomination, and the Baltimore
papers say that Crothers is to re-
sign his seat in the Maryland Sen
ate and Mr.. Writ is to be nominated
for that place, to serve out the
present term, if he can secure an
election. If this program should
he carried out, Crothers beaten in
the State, Writ in the county and
somebody else elected, wouldn't
there be lamentation in the house
of democracy equal to Rachel

ting their knives and preparing,
like the Bannock Indians, to go on
the warpath.

Cheaper money means more
money, it matters not what the
money is composed of so that it is
made a legal tender by the govern
ment, whether it be gold, silver OF
paper, or all together. More money
will raise prices, nothing else can
do it. Business cannot prosper MOI
times improve till prices first rise,
they are now and have been below
what it costs to produce. Cheap
money means more money. Would
it be dishonest money to increase
the number of dollars? Answer
that question.

The Dawn of a Brighter Day.

For forty centuries liberty has fled
westward before the tyranny, oppression
and injustice of the East. At last, chased
round the world, it has reached its start
ing point, the eastern bounds of the old
East Gathering strength as he acquired
knowledge in the Struggle of these cen
turtles, the young giant, Liberty, has
turned upon his old foes, Tyranny and
Injustice, which places the human race at
the beginning of new epoch in the evo-
luton of the species. To enslave man
has been the ambition of the cunning,
the greedy, the cruel and relentless among
the human race. The love of freedom
linked with the fraternal spirit has grown
and strengthened as the race fled west
ward from its prosecutors, till at the end
of the 10TH century, when it has made the
circuit of the globe, explored and peopled
all lands in its efforts to escape by eluding
tyranny and injustice, Freedom now finds
itself strong and able to turn and give
battle to its old foe. There is no longer
spot on earth to retreat to in the vain
hope of finding peace and rest. The flee
ing fugitive has grown into giant and
now turns to face its ancient enemy, and
the battle is to the DEATH The next half
century will witness the greatest convul-
sion, earthquake shocks, and transfer
nation of civilized society ever eXper-
| fenced since the crust of old earth cooled
sufficiently to permit the animal man to
dwell upon it. People who were born
prior to this new era and had glimpse of
the old time and are straining their eyes
and hoping to see its return, will never
witness that sight again, and the new
generation just emerging OH the worlds
stage will not have any conception of the
old time. They are born with their face
toward the foe. The past generation,
the remnant of which is fading out, was
born with its back toward the foe, with
its feet turned to the setting sun hoping
to find that land of liberty and rest till
the very ends of the earth have been
reached in the vain pursuit
To face old tyranny, class privilege,
injustice and robbery, and conquer a
home where liberty may rest in peace is
the mission of the young hero that is
coming out of the west with fraternity,
peace and good will inscribed on his BAN
ners. Faint hearted persons who say all
is lost if this or that measure is not car
ried, or if this or that movement meets
defeat, have but dim conception of the
moral. political and social revolution
whose advanced guards are but appearing
on the sky line. When the hosts of
freedom that are now mastering appear in
solid phalanx, that no man can nubmer,
with locked shields and martial step,
outrage, spoliation and wrong will be
driven into the bottomless pit whence
they came. The ideal to which the race
is tending is now seen by many which in
the past was but dimly discerned by few,
and those seers were stoned by order of
the tyrants for pointing the way and
prophesying of better things.

FUN AT THE HORSE SHOW.

Beauty and Fashion divide Houors with
the Equine Contest in the Tan Bark
Ring.
New York, Nov. 12.-Brilliant as was
the opening Of the horse show at Madi-
son Square garden 1t was eclipsed by
the second day. All the afternoon So
ciety people were out in great numbers
and during the evening the boxes and
arena seats were filled with the best
known men and women Of this and q
dozen other cities. From Baltimore,
Philadelphia and Boston society bellies
other IN the contest Of beauty and fash
ion that divided honors with the equine
contest In the tan bark ring. During
the day the horses received some atten-
tion, and horsemen from all parts Of
the United States and Canada de-
clared the exhibition the finest that has
been seen on this side Of the Atlantic
In the evening the promenade was
packed with q surging mass Of hui
manity whose chief interest was in the
boxes and the horses were neglected.
The programme both day and eve-
ming was an interesting one. Ponies
and hackneys in the day and mounted
park police in the evening were the
principal features. The police In their
business-like gray uniforms manoeuvr-
ed and evoluted like a crack cavalry
regiment, and furnished plenty of en-
tertainment for the spectators. Ser
geant w. c. Egan was in command.
Judging the pairs Of high steDpers fol-
lowed the park police and teAting green
hunters over the jumps closed the eve-
ming performance.

THE CASE OF BROWN.
An Issue That Is Important as Relating
to the Interstate Law

An Issue That Is Important as Relating
to tho Interstate Law.
Washington. Nov 1.-Two weeks
ago the Supreme court made an order
fixing for the first Monday In March
the hearing Of the case of Theodore F.
Brown, VS.. John w. Walker. United
States marshal for the western dis
trict Of Pennsylvania. Today the or
der was modified. by advancing the case
two months, and 1t will be argued
in January, after the cases already set
down for hearing on the first Monday
of that month. This Is the case coming
up from the circuit court for the west
ern district of Pennsylvania, involving
the validity Of the amendment to the
interstate commerce law, protecting
from punishment persons who testify
as to violations Of the law, although
they themselves may be connected with
the violation. Brown Is auditor of q
railroad and he refused to testify before
the grand jury concerning certain al
legged violations of the law, planting
himself upon the constitutional protec-
tion to persons called upon to testi-
fy when to do 30 would incriminate
themselves. He was committed to the
custody of the marshal for contempt
Of court, having persisted In his re-
fusal to testify after being warned by
the Judge. He sued for his release on
a writ of habeas corpus, but the cir
cult Judge refused to discharge him,
holding that he was fully protected by
the provisions of the law referred to-.
He then appealed to the Supreme court
of the United States.
The case Is considered to be one of
the most important, as far as 1t relates
to the interstate law. which the court
has ever been called upon to consider,
which It arises shall be held to be inop-
erative, 1t is conceded that the penal
ties imposed by the law for secret rate
cutting by rebates or otherwise cannot
be enforced.
