read comparatively nothing concerning the
monetary condition OF the country, but for
all that had been made To believe by the
press that. the decentralization OF silver
in 1878 was terrible crime, frhught with
untold in Jury to the whole country. On this
account they we're perfectly bcwildered.
and 1T seemed for awh lille as though nine
tenths of the voters would be Bryanites.
Nov however. that the people have mad
chance to read and reflect the Bryan craze
Is diving out and those Of thinking minds
are returning to the ranks. They have read
and been undeceivel and feel themselves on

ciative OF an honest dollar"
Richard r. Ball returned yesterday from
Woodvile, Md, where he went to make a
free silver speech in favor of Bryan and
Sewall. Mr. Ball says that Maryland is
going for Bryan and Sewall by ut least
3 900 majority. He says the Democrats
will go to Baltimore city with 1 900 to
$4,000 majority and then get the rest in
Baltimore.
He says a very large number OF Re
publican farmers are turning for the
Democratic ticket. The gold Democrats,
says Mr.. Ball. in the large towns OF Mary
land will vote for Palmer and Buckner.
considerable portion OF the colOred voters
in st. Mary's, Prince Georges and Mont

Mi. Ball says that at Woodvillc there
seemed to be some Republican accession

Readers of the MESSENGER in every
section OF the county and State have
been discussing question Of particular
interest to its editors of late. Whether
they have realized how greatly we are
interested we do not know, but Judging
from the way silver dollars have been
paid in on subscription accounts, we
imagine not. We want to say to all
who read this that we will be at Har-
monson's Hotel to-day, and will gladly
accept silver dollars in payment Of
subscriptions Uncle Sans stamp is
all we want on it and we will not only
give you 100 cents worth, but more
for your silver dollar than any other
paper gives you for gold dollar.
