NICE-PREsIDENT and General Man
ager Odell, at one time connected with
the Baltimore and Ohio, but now of
the New York and New England
Railroad, was most cordially received
in Baltimore last week, by number
OF his admiring friends. The manage
ment of the Boston road. under the en-
ergetic and skillful management of
Mr. Odell, has already worked Won
ders for this old established line.
Its stock, which was selling at a very
deprecated price, has become strong
and steady and the general manage
ment of the road is spoken of by rail.
road experts as first-class in every re-
spect. The Baltimore and Ohio lost
one of their ablest men when Mr..
Odel severed his connection with this
grand property.

II is the general verdict of the people
of New York that the great reform
movement has resulted in grand fail
ure, and if the people had a chance to
express their views through the ballot
box the verdict of the last election
would be completely wiped out and
the city carried by the Democracy by
an immense majority. Recorder Golf
has disappointed hismany followers and
shown how ready he is to fall in with
the very men he had denounced. En-
Senator Plat has become the recognized
Boss of the Republican legislature and
carries things with high hand. Re
form in New York under Republican
rule is sham and fraud.

THERE is Il provision in the Illinois
bachelor bill which is interesting. 1t
STIMULATES that bachelors who can
prove that they have proposed mar
riage to female of manageable age at
least three times upon different occaS-
ions and have been refused each time
are exempt. But here a confusion
arises; it must be the same female.
Does ii mean three times to one wom-
an; or once to each of three women?
And is three times always tout?
Where is the man who is going to
admit that he has given one woman
three opportunities to snub him.

GENERAL CAMPos, the leading
Spanish General, is going to Cuba with
5000 soldiers to suppress the rebellion +"
He may find his object just as diff
cult as did the English General, Corn
wallis, when he surrendered to this
country in 1776. Rebellions often
show disposition not to be suppress
ed, and the Cubans seem to be thor
oughly aroused over their wrongs.
That they are actively at work in this
country is not to be doubted, nor that
they are raising large sums of money
among their countrymen here to pros
ecute vigorous campaign against
their oppressors. Never before have
the patriots been so united and free
from jealous quarrels among their lead
ers. They seem to be animated with
but one purpose-to drive Spanish rule
from their island, and Spain will find
that the rebellion is no little petty af-
fair to be settled in few days or weeks.
In this country we know from glorious
tradition what a fight for liberty really
means, will watch with interest the
island contest. -

THE hand of death has gathered into
the heavenly harvest many a worthy
citizen of this community recently,
and it has been our painful duty to rec
ord in these columns from time to time
the sad notice of other dissolutions of
the spirit andthe flesh, the ultimate vic
tory which must crown the efforts of
that silent and deadly nemeis always
DIGGING our footsteps, and the clear
manifestation of the presence of Su-
preme Being, who rules the mighty
powers of the universe with undis-
puted sway. Such fate will one day
come to each and everyone of us, and
those who now neglect the golden
hours of opportunity, will one day
have occasion to repent the wasted
moments, the rejected counsel of Gods
emissaries on earth, and the many
misdeeds which have characterized an
unfortunate life. Be warned by the
experience of Others. and turn into the
narrow path of righteousness, if you
are traversing the luxurious road to
eternal ruin. Let us prepare our &C
count in time for the Master of the
Vineyard, for the Bible plainly says,
that "Many are called, but fen are
chosen"

The Present Outlook.

The democratic nomination for To
presidency has been influenced ID
many years by the necessity of carr!
ing New York. 1t is true that Nj
Cleveland could have got along in Isl
without New York, but this was excel
tional and its repetition cannot be \
lied upon. The South, with its Il
votes, is regarded as safely democrat
in a presidential election, regardless
the silver question. Two hundred al
twenty-four electoral votes are need
sary. The South, along with Mel
York, New Jersey, Connecticut lnd9
ana and Delaware, has 226 vote
Indiana is the only Western Sls1
which the democrats have to carry
and that State is ordinarily strOngl
democratic. 1t is to be- supposed tD1

Victory in The Air.

THE Democrats of Baltimore last
week covered themselves with glory,
by the splendid victory won in Repub-
lican stronghOlds. By a united party
the wards that rolled up a Republican
majority of nine hundred, only few
months ago, now gives a majority Of
twenty-seven hundred for the Demo-
cratic nominees. All true party men
determined to have no more desertions
from the ranks. Old Baltimore will be
good for an old-time majority in No
vember, and Democrats all over the
State now see the necessity of Demo-
cratic supremacy in Maryland.

The most conflicting part of Mr..
Mains testimony upon the witness
stand was that relating to the place
where the money was parcelled out
and arranged for the grand Cripple

distinctly that he went into the back

OF the hotel existed, in fact, there was
no reading room at all; the table for

The Democrats of Frederick should
bear in mind that there is seldom any
thing gained by deserving their party
and allowing the power to rest in the
hands of the Republicans. Maryland
is Democratic State, and her peace
and prosperity depends upon Demo-
cratic ascendency. Our Republican
friends will, no doubt, he willing to
make all kinds of promises to have
Democrats desert their party and allow
them to capture the State. With the
experience of the past before us, we
can readily understand what they
would do, should Democrats allow
them to elect Governor. Just think
how they would run the board of cleo
ton supervisors, think of them hand
ling the judges and clerks of election;
there would be no halfway business
with them. a party ready to employ
Federal election machinery to terror
ize their own people, would not hest
tate to do anything to perpetuate their
power. Let Democrats begin to think
what they have already done. Thou
sands remained at home during the
last Congressional elections, thus re-
fusing to aid President Cleveland in
his bold fight for the people. Now we
will have a Republican Congress and a
Republican Senate. In our county
hundreds of Democrats refused to vote,
thus throwing the county over into the
hands of the enemy. Bear in mind
that no man or set of men, should
make Democrats desert their party.
Because we may not agree to this or
that line of policy, there is no reason
why we should leave our party and
help to defeat it by remaining away
from the polls. This fall we have inn
portant results depending upon our
elections both for State and county Of
ticers. Let us determine to secure the
very best men of our party as our rep
resentatives, and then see to it that we
go into the contest united party
determined to bring about an old-time
Democratic majority for Frederick
County.

The disappointment created at the
surprising shortnes of the Main-Com-
missioners trial, was largely caused by
the sensational reports gotten up and
forwarded to the city papers. Every
clause was highly magnified, and what
proved in reality to be mere bauble
was trumped up to be an immense
scandal and mountainous affair. 1t
is no wonder that the reliability of the
press is sorely questioned these days.

DIR. MARsAMoN, of Baltimore, de-
serves the thanks of the sportsmen of
Maryland for the energy he has mani
tested in awakening an interest in this
State regarding our much abused game
laws. Our local clubs should join the
State Association, as the fee is so small,
being but one dollar per annum. Uni
form laws for the entire State should
be adopted and then every county
sportsman should pledge himself to
see that they are carried out to the
letter.

THE State Democratic Convention

was the result of the deiberation of
the members of the Central Committee
OF the State Of Maryland, assembled in
Baltimore, on Wednesday last. Every

opinions expressed as to the probable
