mem bers and mum ber OF their friends
were the guests of Mrs. Margaret Collier
Graham and Miss Jennie Collier at their
beautiful home, Wyngate. Luncheon was
served indoors and out under tn trees
in shady nocks and arbors. About the
grounds were inviting chairs and lounges
and bright rugs and carpets enlivened
the picturesqueness of the scene. Delici-
ous bowls of punch were placed on the
porches and kept filled the entire day for
the refleshment of the many guests.
Carriages were in waiting at the trains
and electric cars, and nothing was left
undone for the pleasure and comfort of
the guests by the gracious and ever
thoughtful hostesses. Mrs. Graham and
Miss Collier were assisted in receiving
by their .mother andsMrs. J. A. Osgood,
president of the club, and Miss Lydia

TIE newspapers that serve the ring
through fear and hope of reward are at Il
loss for arguments i'll support OF the Cor
man ticket The negro issue has already
been injected into the campaign and will
doubtless be industriously worked. Mr. Il
c. Mackall of Cecil, an intelligent gentle
man, who ought to know better, writes to
the Cecil Dcm0crdf that Republican success
in Maryland means mixed schools and
cites Ohio as an example. A separate
school system was provided in this State
for colored children, and it j. idle an
absurd to talk of any change. The Re-
publican party in this campaign is COM
mitted to school reforms that are plainly
needed and the Democrats who vote for
Lloyd Lowndes know that instead of I'M
proper interference with the State school
system the energies OF the controlling ele-
ment Of the Republican party and of honest
and patriotic Democrats will be devoted
to the advancement of the scheme of public
education baltimore NtWs-Dem0crd.

For a Fair Election.

From our Regular Correspondent.
BALTIMORE, Sept. 10. 1895.
When the Democratic State Convention ad-
journed on the evening of July 3lst. promi-
nent party leader and II Federal official re
marked that the ticket named was Il very
weak and illogical one. but must be elected
ave cannot afford to lose" he said. We
have the machinery aud we must use it to
greater extent than ever This idea seems
to be the prevailing one now in Democratic
circles. Driven to desperation by the I'M
precedented propular revolt against the
ticket. the shrewd and skilful leaders OF that
party twho, however, for once seem to have
lost their shrewdness and skillmlnessl. have
been inspecting the machinery TO see how it
can best be worked to help them. The first
move decided upon was fraudulent regis
tration, and orders were given out that no
Republican watchers were to he allowed in
the registration rooms, although the law
plainly says that all sttings shall be with
open doors. and the courts have decided that
watchers have Il right to bc present at the
sittings. This was Il fatal blundcr. Such
things have been done before. but the Demo-
cratic bosses overlooked the fact that the old
days of shameful manipulation are past and
no such attempts. On Monday. the first day
of the sitting of registers, a number of Re
publican watchers We're thrown out of the
rooms They were not discouraged, but the
next day went back. Many were again
thrown out, and others were arrested. Three
of these promptly had their cases brought in
to count on writs OF habeas corpus. Then the
complete cave-in and collapse of Democratic
buster occurred. The lawyers for the Demo-
cratic machine said they had no case. and
"declined to push the charge against the
Watchers More than that. Chairman Rusk.
OF the Democratic City Committee. wrote to
Chairman Wellington, of the the Republican
Committee, proposing an amicable arrange
ment whereby both Republican and Demo-
cratic watchers should be allowed in the reg
istration rooms. Mr.. Wellington saw he had
his opponents ION the hip" and refused TO
treat with them. 1--WE do not care what you
do" he wrote back to Mr.. Rusk; I'VE intend
to have our watchers in all the registration
rooms. We claim we have this right and
propose to exercise it, and if we are nterfered
with, we will follow the mater into the courts
and the registration officers who interfere
will find they are violating the law and must
pay the penalty
SO the first skirmish has ended and the
Republicans have drawn first blood The
Democratic leaders are in Il state of panic
over the blunder. 1t has aroused perfect
storm of Indignation everywhere, and promi-
nent Democrats all over the city-men who
are supporting their ticket loyally-have been
among the first to cry out against any such
method. 1t looks now rs if, for the first
time in many years, that, because Of the tenn
per of the people. fair election must be held.
This is what is alarming the Democratic wire

MR.. HURST AND MR.. FLOOD.

The account of the Democratic meeting
at Annapolis on Tuesday night published
in the Baltimore Sun, stated that: "Cheers
for John +. Hurst and John r. Flood rang
through the quiet streets and the cheers
for each were given with equal vigor.'
Who is Flood?
The Baltimore NcWs thus answers:
"Who is Flood? John 7. or Jack" Flood
is the keeper of Floods pavilion. 1t is
one of the two or three places at Curtis
Bay which have made that whole section a
by-word His and other similar places
have drawn on Sundays such characters
from Baltimore that the respectable
citizens of Curtis Bay and Brooklyn dare
not allow their wives and daughters to use
the street cas on that day. The Law and
Order League of the Fifth district of Anne
Arundel county is even now engaged in an
effort, thus far unsuccessful, to secure the
enforcement of the law in the neighbor-
hood"
Is it wonder that Democrats, who look
to the good OF the state, will not vote their
party ticket this fall.

The tax payers of Cecil county remem-
Der certain public utterance in which the
speaker made the assertion that the dogs
that kennel in the Court House would be
driven out as qualification of his personal
spite against faction of his party, and how
public officer was driven out, and the
expense OF law suit thrown upon the tax
payers to determine which Democrat should
enjoy the emoluments Of the County Treas
urer's office. All this was the result OF
"bossism", which the taxpayers find a
costly matter as appears from the counsel
fees enumerated in the County Statement
published this week. This piece of politi-
cal revenge may have afforded the author
much pleasure, but upon the taxpayers it
was a piece of gross imposition.

THE "BoSSES" VS.. THE LAW.

The Democratic machine in Elkton
undertook violation of the Registration
Law on Monday which fortunately the
Republicans were able to prevent owing to
the presence of Judge Stump, who was in
town converting the Circuit Court.
With boldness which has long chaIac-
terized the party machine in Maryland the
local "dictators'' issued an order to their
registration officer to conduct the registra
ton in the. office OF nominee on the Demo-
cyutic county ticket, on North street, after ii
had been advertised and all arrangements
made to hold it at the store Of the officer,
Mr. Patrick j. McCiready, on East Main
street. Judge Stump in person served the
order To hoM the registration at the piacc dd'
rertiscd, and met the officer in the act of
moving the books.

| MEMBERS of the administration are much
ehagrinned and more alarmed over that
statement published by the bond syndicate
which, by the way, is one of those explana-
tions which do not explain. Some OF the
language in that statement was certainly
not calculated to allay the fears of Secretary
Carlisle concerning the maintenance of the
gold reserve. For instance, the assertion
that the syndicate although under no
obligation to do so, would continue to
January l, to deposit gold ''if existing
conditions make it feasible to do So The
administration fears that existing condi-
tons in this case will mean whether it
will be to the interests of the syndicate
to furnish the Treasury with gold. The
syndicate added to the Generalization of
Mr. Carlisle and his fellow democrats when
it sGid: "But neither the bond syndicate
nor any one else can control the elements. F"
After all what frightened Mr.. Carlisle even
worse than the significant wording of the
public statement Of the bond syndicate
was the fact that member of the syndi-
cate Withdrew from the Treasury and ex-
ported 81, 800, 600 of the 81, POO, 600 in gold
sent to Europe last week-the largest ship
ments ever made in one week, with the
single exception of week in last
January when the total sent was half
million in excess of last week. Secretary
Carlisle makes no pretense OF being master
Of, or even of being one of the controll-
ing factors in the financial situation; he
is simply drifting, trusting to luck and
the bond syndicate, seemingly without an
idea of what he will do or try to do in case
neither keeps the gold reserve above the
danger line. There never was time when
a financier was more needed at the head of
the Treasury. With an able man directing
our finances there would be no more bond
issues in times of profound peace, but the
ableman is lacking and the bond issue will
come again in due time. washington

pullers more than anything else. They fore
see danger in any brazen usurpation Of
illegal power.
The Baltimore Sun, in speaking of the re-
cent registration fasco OF the Democrats
says: at would be scarcely going too far to
say that Mondays work of the registration
officers in this city. acting under the instruc-
tions of their superiors. the board of super
visors OF elections Of this city, and under the
advice of the counsel of the board is likely
to lose Mr.. Hurst more votes than can be
counterbalanced by all the frauds to which
such action on the part Of the registration
officers is calculated to open the door. 1t
ought to extinguish the last lingering doubt,
where any such remained, in the mind of
any honest Democrat who has been hesitating
whether to vote for Mr.. Hurst or not
This seems to voice the sentiments Of
thousands of Democrats in Baltimore city.
Speaking of illegal registration, how is this:
The Republicans have found that in one dis
trct in Anne Arundel thirty-two men were
registered who have not been naturalized and
cannot be for tyo years. The Democratic
party must be in desperate straits, don't you
think 500 All this demonstrates the need of
Il clear headed courageous quick-wittcd
general in charge of the Republican cam
paign this year, and shows the wisdom of the
State Committee when il selected Congress-
man Wellington for the place. The victory
will not be stolen from him this year without
the world knowing it. He demands only
fair play, but fair play he will have.
