"MR. CROTHERs takes it back. He says
he does not intend to defend or advocate
anybody except the candidates on the Cor
man State ticket Mr. Crothers did right,
from political standpoint, in so promptly
discarding Mr.. German. Mr.. German is
not at all popular in Caroline. But what
sort of a man is Mr.. Crothers that he should
openly repudiate the omnipotent Demo
craft who made him candidate for Attor-
ney General ?"-BdHo. Ncws.
But if rumor is to be credited, the
omnipotent democrat" really did not
intend to make Mr.. Crothers, the candi-
date for Attorney General
1t has been currently reported on the
streets of Elkton, that on the day Of the
meeting of the Democratic State Conven-
tion, Mr.. German sent message to Ex-
Senator John S. Writ asking Mr.. Writ to
meet him at his Mr.. Gorman's) room at
the Carrollton hotel. That the Senator
intended to offer Mr.. Writ the nomination
for Attorney General, but the message was
intert opted and never reached Mr.. Writ.

immense throng was addressed by Hon.
Lloyd Iowndes, Theodore Roosevelt, Police
COMMISSIONER, New York, and Hon. V. l..
Findlay.
Commenting on Mr.. Hurst's speeches.
Mr.. Findlay said
"The chief drift OF Mr.. Hurst s speeches.
which are very foolish ones, seems to be on
the colored brother. He would try to make
Maryland believe she is against the black
man. in spite of the fact that emancipation
has been accomplished here since 1864, and
that on Emancipation Day on that year
| $4,000 of the ~, slaves in this State
had already had been freed voluntarily by
the shareholders. Hurst and his followers
are spreading this negrophoby through
out the counties but he knows that not
before the war nor during the war nor
since the wal have the people of Maryland
ever had anything but the kindliest feeling
for the negro.
When the Continental army was in need
of food on the James River peninsula in
Virginia the troops stole two cattle from a
man named John Hoob. After the war
was over Hooh sued to get paid for his
cattle. Patrick Henry was counsel for the
defense In his speech he said: 'Here,
amid all the rejoicing over the great vic
tory, over the surrender at Yorktown,
comes the hoarse voice of John Hoob crying
Beef! Beef Beef
And hire today, while Union veterans
are erecting monuments to Confederate
dead at Chicago. comes the hoaise voice OF
| John Hurst crying Coon! Coon. Coonr'
Cheers and laughter
At Concy Island they have sport called
throwing at the COON" A coon" sticks
his head out of II box and the man who can
plant successful ball on his mug is re-
warded by broken-nosed darkey and
sunday cane with bogus silver head on it,
MIR. Huiss sees the coon" at the school
house, on the police force. Why should
he be afraid? He does not keep a saloon.
He does not carry razor. He does not
play crap, and the only kind of policy he
knows anything about is public policy.

with both Biddle and Pierce in North East
on the very day the affidavit of Veazey was
filed by his counsel.
So much in explanation of the Veasey
case.
Grails case, says the News, was pre-
cisely similar Ito Veazey's), and was dis
posed of in the same way.
, That it was disposed of in the same way
Grail, like Veasey, being good Demo-
crat, as the WING has taken the trouble to
ascertain-is true that it was precisely
the same is not the fact.
Grail, Larue and Masco all of Port De-
posit, were indicted upon the same testi-
mony Of ono and the same man, F. p.
Diamio the Pinkerton detective.
Larue, colored Republican, was
promptly convicted on Diamio's testimony
and sent to the House of Correction, while
Grail's case was continued, and a "nol
pros" entered in Masco's case.
One plain question will dispose of these
cases. If the States Attorney could convict
Larue upon Diamio's testimony which he
did why could he not also convict both
Grail and Masco? Masco was indicted for
selling Damio wine, and Larue for selling
Diamio whiskey. No other State witness
than Damio appears on the docket, and
yet Larue went up and Masco escaped.
VIM. Ragan's case the Nc,rs to the con-
trary, still stands the most fragrant case of
distorted justice on the September docket
There were in fact two cases docketed against
him, and when the political threat and
inside facts of them are considered, the
wonder is, there were not Il half dozen.
The first case { No. A. in the trial Of
which the Neus asserts "it was conclusvely
proved that whiskcy, wine and beer were
all procured at his establishment without
any prescription whatever" The court found
Mr.. Raglan mot guilty"
In the second case No 81 in which he
was indicted for selling Diamio, the detec-
tive, pint of whiskcy on one prescription,
but unfortunately made two deliveries of
it, he was found guilty on strictly judi
clal and technical construction of the law
Now one question in Raglan case is very
suggestive;-if the evidence of the State
conclusively proved that whiskey. wine and
beer had been procured at Mr. Raglan :
drug store by States witnesses resident in
and at hand in Cecil county, why would
the States Attorney, 90 to the expense and
trouble to bring the detective back Il
second time from Philadelphia, to get the
second half of the pint of whiskey he
originally bought?
Simply because the detectives evidence
constituted all the valid testimony there was
against Mr.. Raglan, az the court convicted
him on that case alone, and acquitted him
on that Conclusive evidence the Ncrs
talks about.
The attempt Of the Nems, to weaken the
force of these facts, by imputing to the
WING desire to cast reflection upon our
Honorable Judges, is as puerie as it is
absurd
The people of Cecil county, always have
had and have now, the most implicit conf
dence in the integrity. ability and impair

The populists and democrats, or only
the Office seeking ones, the STAR be-
lieves, + delighted over the Taylor
theft of the public funds of our state.
This delightful sensation is caused by
the hopes..that the calamities of the
state mayifoist.:them into public Office.
The f~olly::of.this is two-fold. Thetheft
vas that of Taylor who was elected by
the republican party, it is true, and
must take the responsibility of it, but
tho stealing was the act of Taylor, the
man, and also the thief. The other
part of the folly is that out of this
theft must come a public opinion which
will elect a populist. or democrat. Now
If the republican administration of the
state were corrupt throughout it would
not be in power, for the masses of the
people are honest and have sense
enough to- see and find out what is
honest. Yhsrdemagogues in the oppo-
must show a merit in them
selves before the: people will endorse
them as lawmakers.

A Washington special says that
Senator Pettigrew is being severely
criticised by republican papers on the
Atlantic coast for having voted with
the democrats to endorse the presi-
dents Hawaiian policy. His vote in
this instance is characteristic of his
independence in affairs. His historic
vote, with Senators Plumband Paddock
againt, the Mckinley bill is another
instance. Senator Pettigrew, in ex.
planning his vote said: II am opposed
to any possible scheme for the annex.

into competition with American labor
and the climate is so hot that no other
labor could be employed"

The president is in something of q
dilemma, and as usual rushes to con-
gress with a special message on the
financial question. The issue of
s5O,OOO,0O0b bonds in November which
was to tide over the difficulty and
which brought s5s,OoO,OoO of gold into
the reserve has been exhausted and
s~20,OOO,OO0 more has gone with it. 1t is
the old story of holding a bear by the
tail,-he dare not let go, and calling on
congress to help him, they are about
as afraid of bruin as he is. The presi-
dent implicitly c~onfesses the inability
of the democratic party to carry on the
government and seems to be weakening
in every nerve. His message portends
disaster, unless the gold bugs are APP
peased by an issue of something like
s5OO.OO0.OO three per cent bonds pay
able in gold. The silver men are
bowling loud at his freely expressed
monometalism and say congress should
pay no attention to his wishes. He
makes IN good suggestion and that is
that the import duties should be made
payable in gold. This would turn the
tide of gold into the treasury.

Although Col. Thornby insists that
he is not a candidate for the position
of mine inspector. and says he en-
dorsed 7. W. McFadden for the place,
he is prominently mentioned for the
position and some of the knowing ones
claim that he has a lead pipe cinch on
the job. The Lead Call says: The
Call is rather inclined to believe that
Col. w. J. Thornby, of Hot Springs,
will receive the appointment as state
mine inspector. The governor has
doubtless made up his mind to appoint
some one from the southern Hills, and
if such be the case, we do not know of
a men, from that section, who would
more acceptably fill the office, than

Senator Hebal, of Deuel. county, has
introduced u bill providing for the
the establishment of an asylum for
the blind at Gary. The citizens of
Gary offer to donate a building, former
~ used as a court house, and ten acres
of ground surrounding it, to be used
for the purpose, and to provide for it's
maintenance for one year, or until the
state RECEIVERS from its present financial
embarrassment. Gary is a beautiful
little place, picturesquely located on
a branch of the Lac qui Parle and is
we'll sheltered from the billiards. which
are the bane of an eastern Dakota

pose to donate is ample forthe purpose
for the present, and is pleasantly stu
ated in a grove on the banks of the
Lac qui Parle. The generosity of the
enterprising citizens of Gary is to be
commended, and a legislator who
would oppose the bill of Senator Hebal
is parsimonious and ungrateful to say
the least.
