MR. LAIRD'S APPOINTMENT.

Special Dispatch to Tie Evening Star
ANNAPOLIS. Ed. February 21.-The
general dissatisfaction created by the an
noun"ement of he governors appoint
meuts is increasing rather than waning.
and the resentment aroused seeks express
sion in the most violent forms of criticism.
which would cause the ears of Mr.
1.owndss to tingle could ne hear it.
The line between the Wellington and anti
Wellington camps has never been more dis
tinctiy marked than by the manner in which
the patronage has been distributed, and
those who consulted their own wishes when
voting for Mr.. GibSon'S successor can now
form an estimate OF how closely the Seaa-
tor-elect stands to the governor.
The criticism aroused by the reappo!nt-
n'ent of Land Commissioner Phiiip D.
Laird IS little short of indignant. and if the
utteraEces of the great majority OF the
democratic senators and several republicans
VINO Were ignored by the governor are IN
any wise significant. the confirmation of
this appointment is very doubtful.
Mr. i.alrd's attitude IN supporting
fIowntleS during the recent gubernatorial
campaign excited the bitterest opposition
among the re- tgular democrats. and the re-
publicdns lid not manifest any great sat
isfaction at the acquisition to their party.
and the naming of such a recent convert In
view OF the fact that ali out and out re-
publican could have been chosen is very
tiiStdSteful TO them.
Had Mr.. Lard supported Lowndes and
been identified with the indeDendent de-
mocracy throughout the campaign the re-
sentiment among the democrats would not
have been pronounced, but an imDres-
/ sion exists here that the support he render
ed the republican ticket began at the pre-
tcise moment when he believed that Mr.
tl."wndes would be elected. and that his ac-
ftion was not SO much an exhibition of
