MR.. MUD on REASSESSMENT.

In his address to the House of Delegates
on taking the chair Speaker Mudd spoke
as follows upon the question of reassess-
ment:
among these is the demand which l
submit to you we will do well to heed, that
comes up from all the people who have at
heart the well-being of the State and JUS
tice to their fellow men in preferment to
selfish or sordid interest, for practical
revaluation and reassessment of all the
property in this State. 1t is our duty, as
conceive 1t, to see to it that there is no half
hearted or Intellectual compliance with
public pledges upon this question, but that
the promise of the constitution that all
property should contribute its share of tax
alton according to its real worth shall be
no longer delusive hope but shall ripen
in the near future in the full fruition OF
honest, substantial performance

CLOSE OF TEE EXPOSITION.

The New York Tribune says: The In
ternational and Cotton States Exposition
at Atlanta comes to close with the year
From it much was expected for the South
and much has been accomplished. 1t has
enabled the new industries which in recent
years have sprung up in that region to tel
the world something of their progress, and
with a new emphasis has called the atten
ton of the Northern capitalists to the
wealth awaiting development in the ole
slave States. As an advertisement it has
been an entire success. As an educational
influence in the Southern country it has
not been without great value, and we may
confident1aly expect distinct advance il
industries and arts throughout the cottor
belt as a result of this chance given to it.

Despite some disquieting rumors as to
the possibility of a failure of the State Sell
ate to organize and of possible dead
lock- which might delay business to the
dissatisfaction and disappointment of the
whole State, says the Baltimore Sun, that
body effected its organization Wednesday
quietly by the election of Mr. William Ca
bell Bruce, democratic Senator from the
second district of Baltimore CITY, as Presi-
dent. The House of Delegates organized
by the election of Mr.. Sydney f. Mudd,
of Charles county, republican. as Speaker
1t was the right of the democratic MAORI
tv in the Senate to control the organiza-
ton of that body, and it was equally their
duty for that purpose to sink all merely
fractional and personal differences We
congratulate the democratic Senators upon
their success in surrounding the difficult
ties which stood in the way of the fulfill
ment of their duty. In view of all that
has happened it would have been most I'M
fortunate if, through personal or frac-
tional division among the democratic Sen
ators deadlock" should have occurred.
The difficulty seems to have been happi-
ly solved by the election of Mr.. Bruce, a
thorough and consistent democrat, but at
the same time an earnest SympathiZcr
with and advocate of those reforms which
are favored by majority Of the voters of
this State The action of the democratic
caucus in finally settling upon Mr.. Bruce
as the party candidate and his consequent
election are events of good augury at the
outset of the session.

There seems to be no longer any doubt
that, acting presumably under an inspra-
ton from Washington, Banker Morgan
has organized a syndicate for the sale of
gold to the government or, in other terms,
for the pun chase of bonds from the treas
ury, which are practically the same opera
tions. The most credible reports are to
the effect that the syndicate is prepared to
buy $500, 900, 600 worth of bonds at short
notice, and the belief is growing that there
is an arrang cement of a more orless official
character whereby the syndicate is to he
recognized by the administration whenever
gold is needed. Secretary Carlisle is re-
ported as having given assurances to GER
tain democratic Senators that there will be
no bond issue as long as the Senate gives
any indications of an intention to act upon
the Presidents recommendations, but the
impression is definitely fixed in the public
mind that the Secretary has made an ar
rangement with the Morgan syndicate
whereby bond issue will be entirely alb
sorbed by the subscribing members imme
diately after it's announcement.-Was

AN ELECTION LAW.

Two of the more important measures
whichwill come before theLegislature have
already been introduced. These are Sen
ator Bruce's civil-service reform bill, put
ting all the subordinate State and city Of
ficials under the protection of the law,
and Senator Dobler's election law. The
latter is the measure formulated by the
Reform League of Baltimore. 1t retains
the Australian features, but makes radical
changes in details and administration.
The following are the main features
Supervisors of election before July LIST are
to name four persons as board of regis
try, two form each of the leading parties,
who shall serve as judges of election also
Two clerks of election shall be selected
before September 10Th.
An entire new registry shall take place
in 1896 in the whole State.
Annual registration in Baltimore City
and new registration every four years in
the counties.
Each party in the usual manner of nom
visors of elections to be voted for. No
person shall vote over two supervisors, il
he does it vitates his ticket. In case of a
tie between any two it shall be decided by
lot by the chief judge of the Orphans
Court.
Registration shall be on duplicate books,
one which shall be intrusted to demo.
crat and one to a republican.
Challengers are allowed if duly accred-
tied in registration rooms, also outside of
the guard-rail during election day and in
side of rail to watch the count.
Ballot clerks are abolished and one OF
the four judges delivers ballots and marks
his name thereon.
The supervisors shall publish the tick
cts in newspapers once week for two
weeks before elections in the form in
which the respective tickets are to be vo-
ted The ticket of the party casting the
greatest number of votes for Governor at
the last preceding election shall be at the
left on the ballot and the next highest
number next, and so on.
The judges shall make returns to super
yisors and county commissions. a can
vassing board, composed of supervisors,
States attorney and judges of the Or
phans' Court is provided for the counties
and for the State the secretary of State,
clerk of Court of Appeals and attorney
general are made State canvassing board.
Penalties for fraud or other offenSes are
very drastic.

CONGR ESSIONAL.

The committees of the Senate Monday
passed into the control of the republicans.
The change in the political complexion of
the committees was effected by the adop-
ton of a resolution organizing the COM
mittces as agreed to by the republicans and
democratic steering committees. The pop
ulists, with the exception of Mr. Kyle, of
South Dakota, declined to vote, and the
republicans, having plurality of the Sen
ate, were thus enabled to adopt the resolu-
ton by vote of 30 to %. Mr.. Kyle, voted
with the democrats against the reorgani-
zation. A wo-hour debate followed the
adoption of the resolution, the purpose of
which was mainly political. Before the
reorganization Henry Cabot Lodge, the
Senator from Massachusetts, delivered an
address on the Monroe doctrine.
The Senate held two honrs' session
Tuesday. A speech was made by Mr.
Mitchell on the restoration of the McKin-
ley duties on wool A resolution was
passed for the investigation by the com
mittee on naval affairs of the prices paid
by the government for ship armor. A res
olution was offered by Mr.. Sherman fol
the restoration of the gold reserve, which
thereafter, it was provided, should be held
sacred for the redemption of the green.
backs and treasury notes, the former tc
be reissued only in exchange for gold coin
and bullion. Mr. Elkins asked for the i'm
mediate consideration of resolution de
claring it to be the sense of the Senate
that no bonds of the United States should
be sold at private sale or by private con
tract, but should be disposed of by adver
tisement to the highest bidder. Mr.. Hill
of New York, objected.
The House was in session only fifteer
minutes and transacted no business.

DIR. SATTERLEE'S LETTER.

The standing committee of the new Do
day morning at the Church of the Epiph-
any. 1t was the first meeting since it was
known that DR.. Henry Yates Satterlee, of
New York, who was elected the first bishop
of the new diocese, would accept the call,
and his formal letter of acceptance was
laid before the committee by the president
Rev. DR.. John III. Elliott. 1t was address
| ed to the committee, Rev. DR.. Elliott,
Rev. DR.. Mackay- Smith and Gen. John G.
Parke, appointed at the primary conven-
ton to notify DR.. Satterlee. The letter
was as follows:
CALGARY Church II. cfory, 1873 East Tween
| ty-frst street, New York, Dec. %, 1S95.-
| Gentlemen: 1t is hard for me to express in
words my deep appreciation of the honor
that has been conferred upon me by the
clergy and laity of the Diocese of Wash
| gton in electing me as its first bishop.
The consciousness of the grave respon-
sibilities to God and man which belong to
this high position in the Church of Christ
| and the realization of the opportunities of
| the new diocese have become deeper and
stronger in my mind after three weeks of
careful and prayerful consideration.
1 have had heretofore an mistaken con-
! viction that no human influence or earthly
| inducement, nothing less than the plainest
indication of Gods WILL should sever the
| religious ties that bind me to the work, the
people, the ideals of Calvary parish; now
| feel that that call of God has come and
| that it is Imperative
Though l realize now more wildly and
painfully than ever before my own utter
insufficiency for the office and work of a
bishop in the Church of God, yet day by
day the conviction has grown steadily
stronger that this summons has come to
! me from the great Head of the Church,
our assembled Lord and King, and, there
| fore, in obedience to His voice and iii hum
| BILE submission to what believe to be His
| will, l accept the position of bishop-elect
of Washington.
With the unceasing prayer that the bless
| ing of Christ may rest upon the new do
cese and that in all our works begun, con-
tinued and ended in Him, bishop, clergy
and people may preceive and know what
things we ought to do, and then have grace
and power faithfully to fulfill the same, l
am, gentlemen, with deep respect,
! Your servant in Christ,
| HENRY Y SATTERLEE.

keep the people from giving up their good
money to these sharks, but SO long as there
are people who will be caught by promises
of so worth for IA dime these frauds will
continue to do business. AS soon as they
are shut out of the mails under one name,
they take another, and slightly changing
their scheme they go right ahead again
until caught by the Post Office officials.
1t is generally believed that another
bond issue will shortly be announced, but
Secretary Carlisle will not discuss the mat
ter for publication.

H. Kyd Douglas, adjutant- general of
Maryland, has made his annual report to
Governor Brown for the year ended Sep
TENDER 80, 1895. The report states that few
changes have taken place in the organiza-
ton of the State troops. \ few compan
les that were entirely inefficient were dis
banded. Nonew companies were organ
lied Had it been deemed advisable to
increase the force of the Maryland Nation
al Guard, it would have been possible,
owing to the want of funds But at pres
ent the adjutant general thinks the exis-
ting organization will be large enough
when it is practicable to complete the
quota of the three regiments. Y
