MIR EpIToE:-Thc political situation aS
far as the light for Governor is concerned,
has been somewhat relieved by the retire
mcnt of Mr.. Rainier from the field as
candidate. The reasons assigned by him
for the act are in our judgment unfair,
and not altogether a. frank as might have
been expected from one OF his known
standing in the ranks of our public men
His fight as outlined in his speech in Bal
timorc CITY was to he one of aggressive
ness against the organization of the Dem
ocratic party. 1t WAS to he an appeal from
the known and recognized methods of
party management, to the people. 1t was
an anomalous position, because the people
speak in primary convention, through
their leaders, and their voice so expressed
has ALWAYS been taken as the voice of the
party. Who were to be the Judges of the
sentiment of the people, Mr.. Rayncr aud
his followers, or the men in the party, who
attended primary meetings and by their
presence and votes indicated results: In
every view of the situation the latter can
only be taken as the correct indie X of what
the people wish. The charge so often
made of packed conventions and corrupt
primary meetings. cannot be taken as good
and sufficient reasons why men Of ambl
touS aspirations. should accuse party
methods. Sucll acts Noulu not pe lolcr-
ated by our party leaders, because lheE
KNOW that lheE Would no' ne sustaihcu ny
a vote of the people. We speak of these
matters at length, because now ana lheh
they are heard and if not combattcd in
the beginning, they may do harm. Now
we cannot agree with Mr. Rayncr, that the
edct had gone forth from the managers,
that he must he defeated, but must candid
