The Baltimore .Snn, the chief Re-
publican aud Tax Dodger organ Of
Maryland. in speaking of turning over
the state 10 Republican rule. says
I'VE cannot conceive of more lamning
confession fram the lips OF anv set Of poll
ticians that than Won cannot afford To the
Republicans win, because that means the
loss Of the election machinery.
The .Sun well knows what turning
over the election machinery to the
Republicans means During Repub-
lican rule in Maryland, when Il was too
cowordiy 10 protest, elections were mere
farces. 1t knows that every election
officer was partisan Republican. and
Il partisan, usually, of the most unscrup-
uleus kind. II knows that Democrats
we're beaten and driven from the polls,
and tha, those who were allowed to
vote did 81 under crossed bay0nets.
Ii well knows that the ballots were
counted with no Democratic eve to
witness, aud that the returns were
made up to serve partisan ends. Ii
well knows all this, and as one of the
candidates on the Republican state
ticket wants the party judged by its
record. we take it that Republican sue
cess means repiiition of the rule
given when that party was in power

Country vs. City Press.

Every Democratic county journal
in the state is actively supporting the
Democratic ticket Every Baltimore
daily is against the ticket except the
Heuhi, and is neutral and fair. When
the votes are counted il will he evident
whether the country or city press has
most influence with the people. The

No Surrender.

Ii would not take many months of
Republicanism in this State To satisfy
the most dissatisfied Of our citizens that
SO. called Democratic "bossism' is Il
virtue beside il. The memory of days
when the Republicans ruled still live.
In those days almost any trickery in
politics on the part OF Democrats was
justified on the ground that he Repub-
licams were worse. What can we say
of the future? Republican newspapers
are working the anti.Gorman move
ment for all that's in it. Let every
Democrat ask himself the question .
Will matters be improved by Rcpub-
lican ascendancy Are tariff reform

pubIicans, yet if the lines As laid down
by the Baltimore SIN are carried out,
the Maryland delegation in Congress
will be found voting for Mckinleyism.
But the end is not yet. Maryland is

the people with him, but the machine
had the delegates, and ran the conven-

Whilst the bosses were making up
the ticket with the Coal King ut its
head, the Baltimore negroes were
making speeches on the streets de-
nouncing Lowndes for his position on
the Civil Rights Bill, and leading Re-
publicans were circulating dodgers
giving seven reasons why he should
not be nominated. The reasons are
that

As this State has by the free choice

interest in the peace and good order of
the commonwealth,

posed, has administered the State gov

State has made steady increase in

Not wilhstanding this satisfactory
condition of affairs under Democratic
rules, it is gravely proposed by some
and insisted upon by others, that this
party composed of 10000 majority OF
the white voters Of the State should
turn the whole State government with
all the ills that will surely follow in
the wake of such an actl over TO a
party composed of $4,000 whites aud
-, 900 colorcd voters, and this will
accomplish what? Not an improve
ment in the government of the State.
Ii has been above reproach; not that
there is any wrongs Ia be remedied
but simply because the senior United
States Senator has large influence in
the majority party. 1t is not even
charged that Senator German has used
his influence to the injury of the State
government. because the State govern.
meni has not hecn injured, but becaust
Senator German has acquired large
influence This and this alone.
