REFERRING to the Republican nomi-
nation at Cambridge, the Baltimore
Sun Says editorially:
1.-THE republican ticket is good one
personally, aud the platform is also =
coed one.
"The ticket represents the best ele-
ments of the republican party in Mary
land. and the gentlemen who compose il
are identified with the substantial inter.
ests of the State.
They are all gentlemen of high stand
ing aud of undOubted character and
worth. Mr.. Lowndes. the nominee for
Governor, is a man of fine business
ability and varied practical experience,
thoroughly conversant with the needs
and resources Of the State.
1t looks very much to us that the
Sun was going to give this ticket its
support. This not at all surprising
to us, for the Suns antagonism to the
leaders Of the Democratic party in this
State has been very bitter for some
time. The loss of the support of the
Baltimore Sun to any political party
is very serious one.

THE RAILROADS AND THE PUBLIC

From the Recor't
Railroad corporations are like
other private corporations organized
to make money. They have their IN
teiests TO take care OF and have no
souls to guide them in the path of
life. sometimes corporations seem
to give the contradiction to the
theory that body of men are mora
moral than any single member Of that
body. However, the railroads are
not TO be taken on single sue but
the sum total Of what they do is the
test of their right to be. Fancy all
OF them closing business for week
aud all hands of their employees 60
ing out on holiday, presidents, gen-
eral passenger agents and all inclued.
Wouldn't the public pray them come
back at almost any price? But It is
not on this line that we started out
to speak, but our medita:ions have
been carried TO inquiry along the
line Of travelling accommodations by
q complaint of a citizen that fell un-
de. our notice. 1t was a mighty
grumble because certain railroad
would not put on an extra train and
run il, at great less, to accommo-
date half dozen passengers. The
complainant seemed to think of no
side but the accommodation phaze
and utterly ignored the fact tnat the
pockets of the owners had to pay for
the special comfort of the petitioner.
Lately business man wanted to
have an extra daily sent out on a
certain road to build up new town
he had lai out. The manager OF the
railroad knew it would not pay the
company, but he offered the town.
builder to put on the train and what
ever loss was sustained, to bear it
between them. The capitalist shud-
dered and declined. 1t was all right
lf the stockholders of the railroad
paid TO build up the town, but not
town builder. Sometimes good rules
of the railroads are made odious by
unreasonable men. here and there, in
their employ, but, as whole, the sys-
TEN cf American railways is managed
with fairness to Il e traveller and ac-
commodation to the public. The
reasons Of the rules, conduct and
management Of railroads will proha.
bly, be found, on candid investiga
ton, in tue main, to be as honest AID
logical, as those discovered 20 under
lie any general corporate or private
business now in operation in
America.

THE COTTON MARKET.

We have thought all along that
cotton would bring 10 cents per
pound before the season was 50 far
advanced as it is now, and have ad-
vised the farmers to hold it, AS it
now LOOKS, we are at sea what tc
think of it. One day the bulls have
it their own way and the next day
the bears have a bout, We take
the following from the Memphis
Commercial on the slump in prl-
ces:
The price conditions appear to be
highly favorable, but at the very
time advances have been confident
ly expected we have been treated' 70
sharp decline 1t may be that
the market was billed little too
eagerly aud that the falling back is
to some extent a natural reaction;
but considering the size Of the crop
it seems to us that 9 cents ought to
be very reasonable price and lO
cents not at alt remarkable. The
best estimates of this years crop,
as compared with last, when the
weight of the bales is equali2ed, is
but little over six and a quarter
millions, or a reduction Of about
three and threequarter millions as
compared with last year With q
crop so greatly reduced it seems
reasonable to expect better prices
than now to prevail But 1t is haz
ardous to bet on it.
