Special. )-There has been no talk here
Of ex-Mayor Henry Strauss becoming
a candidate for Congress at the coming
election, or OF his seeking in any way
the nomination. He has no intention
of reaching out for congressional honors,
and was amazed to learn through Rich
mond paper that 'ex-Mayor Henry
Strauss Will make a desperate fight Tor
the nomination" There seems to be no
doubt that the Democracy OF this district
will renominate as its candidate Hon.
Elisha T. Meredith, and elect him 10
Congress by handsome majority over
any one who may be placed in the field
BY the opposition.
The Democratic City Committee nave
determined TO hold ward meetings for the
election OF delegates TO the District Sena-
torial Convention tomorrow night. The
senatorial convention will meet in this
city on the 10Th instant. The renomins-
ton Of Senator Mushbach is foregone
conclusion. No time has yet been fxed
for the Democratic convention Of Aiexan-
dria city and county. which VIII '1omi-

Democrats, Stand Firm.

rThr following article is from the pen ofan OctO-
genarian Democrat who has been an ardent party
man from principle from the day of his majority 10
the present time never ialtering, never heSltatlng
and never sulking because his faVOrltes were lg
nored. 1t has been enough for him to know lhat
candidates are honest and capable, anu represent
Democratic principles. Coming from Sucn Demo
crat and one well qualified to speak ior ana "u
wise the party we give it editorial prominence
1t is noted fact, that many voters hereto
fore ranking themselves with the Democratic
party are inclined to favor the election OF
Lloyd I.owndes, the Republican candidate for
Governor of Maryland, by either casting their
votes for him. or remaining away from the
polls. In either view of the case, it is difficult
to understand how any citizen calling himself
a Democrat could be reconciled to such Il
course. John Z. Hurst, the Democratic nOm-
inee for Governor, and his associates on the
ticket. are gentlemen of the hi ighest personal
character, worthy Of the support of every true
Democrat and the respect of all honorable
men in the State for their moral worth
Now with regard to our county ticket, it
can be said with equal truth, that every gen
tleman on it is we'll qualified and if elected,
(which they certainly will be- will be found
capable and faithful to the trust reposed in him.
The appeal to Democrats in behalf of Re-
publican candidates is weak device, which
will signally fail, because there is no reason
why any Democrat upon reflection should
hesitate to support the candidates of his party
on principle, as enunciated by Thomas JEFF
ierson, and practically carried out by every
Drag,Ja,,f tba foundation Of
parties. including the administration of Gro
yer Cleveland, which fully illustrates the
principles of his distinguished predecessors in
the Presidential office. The county of Car
roll, bearing the honored name of him, who
was allowed under kind Providence to sur
vive all his associate signers of the Declara-
ton of independence, has great duty to dis
charge at the election polls on the 9TH day of
November, which can only be performed by
the election of the State and County ticket,
result which every true Democrat has right
10 expect
If Maryland is lost by fhe Democrats this
year, it will be almost impossible to carry it
for the Democratic Presidential nominee next
year.
The nominee of the Democracy for Pres-
dent in 1896 is sure to be in accord with the
policy of the Cleveland Administration.
Hence vote withheld from the Democratic
State ticket this year is vote against the
perperuation and completion Of the Cleveland
policy after 1896. Beyond all other Demo-
Gratis it is the obvious duty of the special
friends of President Cleveland to hold Mary
land in the Democratic column.
vote against the State or County ticket is
a vote to transfer the Federal and State gov
ernments to Republican rule. result which
every ialtering Democrat, who fails to dis
charge his whole duty, will assuredly live to
regret.

prntenions 10 moral ideas to all that is upright i'll
politics to the maintenance of the purity and free
dom of the ballot is governed by machine which
is capable of treachery and corruption uaprece-
dented in the history of this or any other State?
But not content with their fraudulentand treach-
erous treatment of Mr. Malster at Cambridge on
August Is, the Republican machine bosses were
guilty of still more outrageous performances prior
to and al their city convention, which nominated
AlcaeuS Hooper for Mayor on the night OF October
,. Ever since the adjournment of the Cambridge
Convention there had been Il growing sentiment
among Republicans that the great wrong done Mr..
Malstcr at that time could be partly righted were
he To be nominated for Mayor of Baltimore. 1t was
contendcd that his nomination to succeed Mayor
Latrobe would unity and harmonic the party to
such an extent that it would go to the polls on
November witha solid front and with enthusiastic
heart Leading Republicans who supported Mr..
Lowndes 1T Cambridge were equally favorable to
Mr. Masters nomination for Mayor, and worked
early and late to bring it about. But the machine
determined that Mr.. Malster should have nothing.
They worked day and night to compass their ends.
They interviewed all of the l9S delegates to the
convention. They begged bcsought and threatened
them. but they found they could not make much
headway. DO what they would over 100 of the con
vcnton held out for Malster, and 10 Of them went
so far 10 sign written pledge that they would
stand by him until he nominated.
At last, when all other means were exhausted,
when the convention actually about 10 meet.
and defeat stared the machine III the face, the
leaders or bosses made Il deal whereby they com
bned the forces of Messrs CrCagerand Hooper, per
slladcd Mr. Craeger to withdraw in favor Of Hooper
and by certain other neiarious practices known to
corrupt and venal men, they captured enough
votes to put Hooper through by a bare majority,
and the crOwning act of their crooked work was
done Mr.. Malster again betrayed and sold
ont in the house of his friends, and by those whom
he had trusted, and the bosses triumphed. The
leaders or bosses triumphed and the masses of the
people were dcfraudcd again of their rights, and
their choice rejected by corrupt and arrogant
a coerie of politicians ever ruled to ultimately
ruin party organization. They have the gauntlet
of the people to yet at the polls and hundreds
of those of Mr.. Masters friends who resent the
treason to their chief will, like tile writer, vote the
Democratic ticket rebuke to those who have
seized and are using the party organization for their
own personal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT and profit.

Hog Or No Hog.

MEssRs. EDlroRS.-An important question
in Westminster Just now is, whether the keep
ing of hogs in the city shall hereafter be pre-
vented.
Those who favor the abolishment Of hog
pens assert that the fifth and bad odOrs from
pens is a menace to the public health, and
will eventually result in keeping summer
visitors away These spend large sums Of
money here and make profitable considerable
property that otherwise would be useless as
hotels and boarding houses: Many thousands
of dollars have been spent in this KIND OF
property and much of the cost has been paid
out to hborer$ and mechanics in their con
struction. 4 considerable sum is also spent
for repairs annually. 1t is safe to say. too,
that summer visitors cause the expenditure
here of not less than $4,000 for supplies for
their maintenance, and personally they spend
much with the merchants.
Those in the opposition claim that their
pens are kept clean, are not offensive to
dangerous degree. and that by keeping hogs
they can utilize much table and kitchen leav-
ings that would otherwise have TO be thrown
out and become offensive, &c.
In reply the other side say that if hog pens
are kept clean little time must be spent each
day in keeping them so. No one who be-
lieves in hogs would undertake to keep a pen
clean for 90 cents week for anyone, and by
depositing 20 cents week in a savings bank
a sufficient sum would accumulate in year
to buy hog, and what is spent for feed would
buy another hog. Here would he two hogs,
enough for any ordinary family and without
any trouble, without bad odors, without the
risk of death or rsickness from cholera without
danger to the public health and without driv-
ing away from the city a number of thousands
of dollars that are annually brought here by
summer boarders. AS to garbage, it would
not cost much for the city to run garbage
carts. No Hoe.

Hon. John e. Hurst.

Never, since Maryland and Baltimore. It's
chief city, was rescued from Radical rule, has
the Democracy presented before the people II
candidate for Governor more capable. more
honest more upright or more Independent
than Hon John f. Hurst. As Governor no
man will presume to control him. He Will
be guided by his oath of office and discharge
his duties conscientiously and with the best
interests of the whole people i'll view. He
did not seek the nomination. The nomina-
lion sought the man, and as loyal party man,
believing in Democratic principles and that
principles can only be applied TO government
through party organization and success. he
obeyed the call of the party through IFS ac-
credited representatives, and accepted the
nomination rendered through the votes Of
considerable majority Of the delegates 10 the
Democratic state convention.
Large crowds greet him wherever he speaks,
and no candidate has been more enthusiastic
caly received or made more favorable i'm
preston with the people. He will most GER
faimlv be elected and his record will be alike
ereditable to himself, the state and the Demo
cratic party.
No man who knows him will dare say that
he would sacrifice an honorable name and
business reputation by bein'7 the tool of any
man. He will be Governor in person. and
not as a proxy for any alleged boss. clique or
faction.
