trade plank. But he did not object to 1t
on any allegation that free trade If adopted
would dishonor the credit Of the govern
ment- Nor did any protectionist democrat
make such criticism, for it would not lie
against the plank in question. = The matter
was important, and there were radical diff
ferences of opinion between democrats
about 1t, but nobody commended that the
honor and credit Of the government were
a stake. Mr.. Howell, for the sake of party
unity. surrendered lis opinion to that of
the majority about question of economic
policy.
The differences between democrats in this
campaign are of another character Alto
gether. Those who refuse to support the
party platform this year do so on the ex-
plicit allegation that It Is undemocratic
and revolutionary; that it threatens the
honor and credit of the government; that
those who adopted it in convention as dele
gates betrayed their trust. The difficulty
is no mere difference of opinion about a
question Of policy. but extends to views
which men entertain about good faith and
the public integrity.
Mr.. German ought to be able to see the
difference between the two situations very
clearly. He. like Mr.. Howell, Is a pro-
tectionist. He, like Mr.. Howell, objected to
the free trade plank of the party's plat
form In 1892, and he, like Mr.. Howell, for
party unity's sake, waived HIS objection
and supported the ticket. He returned
home that year. was applauded by the
Maryland democracy. and led 1t to victory.
WHAT is the situation which now confronts
him? Is there democratic unity in Mary
land this year? Is his surrender of mis-
convictions on the money question applaud
ed? Is 1t not rather condemned by many
of the best democrats In the state, on the
score that a man may not make parry
traffic of principles which affect the good
name of the republic itself? -'-"--''' -

The finding at this late date of an alleged
biood-stained coat, said to have been tine
property of the late Sydney Randolph, the
man accused of the murderous assault on
the Buxton family near Gaithersbu-g last
spring, and said to prove that Randolph
was guilty of the crime for which he was
lynched. is of little weight as a yintics-
ton of the lynching. The search for this
evidence should have been made with
promptness and thoroushness at the time
OF the commission of the crime The ac-
count given of the place where the coat Is
said to have been found shows that IL a
fraction OF the energy that was exhibited in
hanging Randolph without proof had been
expended in searching for proof this al
Legged evidence of his guilt would have been
easily discovered: and Randolph. if guilty.
would have been executed by the Law In
vindication of the law. instead of being
murdered by lynchers to the injury of the
good name of Maryland and MONTGOMERY

The farmers of Maryland ard Virginia,
especially those Who live in the counties
adjacent to the District and associated
commercially with Washington. among
whom are many readers CT The Star, will
lind much that is of direct, personal inter
est TO them in the article reprinted in The
Star today from the Forum under the title
Free Coinage anG Farmers" The writer
who is secretary of the Farmers National
Congress, and not an emissary of Wall
street, clearly shows how closely allied are
the interests of the agriculturists and the
business men, the manufacturers and
other factors in the fabric of society
He demonstrates, too. the fact that on the
farmer Will fall heavily the burden of dis
tress caused by the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at 10 TO 1. The tiIler of
the soil has nothing to gain from such a
measure and much to lose, yet he Is the
main hope today Of the advocates of free

to the good sense of the reader there is
reason to believe that they will produce
good results.

Non-Surrendera PriDcinle.

In his effort Thursday night in BaItim,re
to Justify his support of the Chicago plat
form. Mr. German quoted from a letter
which Mr.. Cleveland as a Presidential c,n-
didate wrote in July, 1892 to Mr.. Clark
Howell of the Atlanta Constitution. The
democratic national platform of that year
contained propositions TO which Mr.. H,w-
ell did not assent. but he accepted IL In
the spirit of bowling to the will of the ma
jority. and In a personal letter so Informed
Dir Cleveland Mr. Cleveland, IN reply, ex-
pressed pleasure at receiving the assur-
ance, and added some timely and altogether
praisevorthy sentiments in support of
party unity. But does Mr. German ser;ous-
ly compare that situation with the present
one? Let US note the difference:
Mr. Howell was, and is. a rrotectionist
He was brought up in the Randall school
Of economics. The Constitution supported
Hr. Randall in the great Pennsylvanian's
contest with Mr.. Carlisle over the tariff
question. What Mr.. Howell objected to in
the party platform in 1892 was the free

Alexandria County's Latest.

The murderous assault committed last
night by an unknown highwayman within
a short distance Of the Aqueduct Bridge
in Dead Mans Hollow" was no doubt
the work of one Of the dangerous char
acters now infestfng the region across the
river. A highway robbery may. Of course
occur anywhere. Men have been held up
and robbed in the heart Of the city, in the
parks. on the great thoroughfares, show
ing that solitude and secIusion are ap-
parentiy not essential to the success Of
such an enterprise, SO no blame can be
laid on the locality of last nights affair on
this account alone. But Dead Mans Hol-
low has been the scene of other crimes.
The whole river front from the Aaueduct
Bridge to the Long Bridge Is the resort OF
thieves, tramps, thugs and gamblers men
without scruple or conscience. almost with.

Alexandria county law is too weak to ter

well as upon their honest neighbors They

tee Thus far the residents have been I'M
successful In their effort to stamp out the
various forms of crime that blot the good
repute of the region, for they have had
little or no aid from the local officials, who
are in duty bound to protect life and prop
erty in the county. The assault on car.

The address delivered by Secretary Car
Isle at the Treasury Department yesterday
to a delegation of Baltimore wage-earners,
while very brief, has the merit Of absolute
clearness aad shows how greatly the sound
money cause must benefit by his approach
ing stumping tour. And not alone in Ken
lucky, through which the tour Is to be
made. but in all the states where his
speeches may be circulated. For II SO much
can be packed by him into so small a space.
it Is easily to be seen how liberal will be his
contribution to the campaign in an address
enabling him 10 go fully into the financial
subject.
Mr.. Carlisle has drawn a good deal of the
fire Of the silver men in this campaign.
The rattling stump orator. like death, loves
shining mark. Given a change. or an ap-
parent change, of base by some eminent
man of the opposition, and the most Or
dinary speaker seems to feel himself
equipped for centre shot at him. He feels
no necessity Of proving that the eminent
man Is wrong in the later position taken,
hut contents himself with pointing out that
the eminent man once held or appeared to
hold. a different opinion
This may be all well enough as a trick of
campaigning. but 1t has no substantial
value as an argument. Some men grow
and grow to great proportions. They are
on the alert for the truth, and when they
find It they are brave enough to adopt It,
and apply 1t. without regard to previous
opinions they may have entertained. Mr.
Carlisle is Of this school. As a public
servant he has had exceptional opportuni-
ties for growth. and he has improved them
He is man of very great powers and he
has applied them to study of great ques-
tions. Never since he first appeared in the
national field has he been better qualified to
pass upon such questions. So that what the
country is most interested in now from him
is not what views he entertained about
finance twenty years ago, when no feature
of the present situation had been developed,
but what his views today are about the
situation of to-day.
The appointments made for Mr.. Carlisle
IN Kentucky insure his reaching the wage
earners of the state in large numbers. He
will speak in the five leading cities, where
organized labor is strong. There would ap-
gear to be not the slightest ground for ques-
hearing. 1t would be reflection, indeed, on
the commonwealth If it's most distinguished
citizen since the days Of Henry Clay should
even in the extreme heat of a spirited cam
paign, meet with any indignity while ad-
dressing his old friends and neighbors.
