voters Of the privilege Of casting an
honest conservative ballot for his
opponent, George ". Reeves, by i'll
ing an in junction against tic placing
Of Reeves name upon the official
ballot. Thus he has attempted to
become their lord and master for
another four years very much against
their wishes. Attempting to de-

obtaining life tenure in Office, but

Democrats Discussing Candidates
for tho Congregational Nomination.

Democrats Discussing Candidates
Tor tho Congressional Nomination.
The democrats Of the sixth Maryland
congressional district, which comprises the
counties of Montgomery, Allegheny. Fred
erick, Garrett and Washington, are dis
playing much interest In the. approaching
campaign, and many of them believe there
will be an excellent chance to elect q sue
cessor In the lower house to Senator-elect
Wellington, because of the favorable sill
yer sentiment which they claim Is strong
and growing stronger In the counties COM
posing the sixth. There are many aspir-
ants, therefore. for the democratic nomina-
ton and the names most frequently heard
in this connection are those of Mr.. Blair
Lee of Silver Spring. Mr.. viii. P. Mauls-
by OF Frederick, Mr.. Ferdinand Williams
of Cumberland, who was defeated by SEN
ator-elect Wellington in 1894, and Messrs.
VIM. Fiers, Bouic, Maurice Talbot and
George Dawson of Rockville. Mr.. Blair
Lee seems to be most favored in the dis
cussion now in progress by large proper
ton of the party men because his views on
silver are in accordance with those OF Nom
inee Bryan. He is personally popular also.
Mr.. George Dawson is regarded also as a
good man owing to his wide influence in
Montgomery county and the belief that he
would receive the support of his family
connections, who are strong in republican
circles, and who have been prominently
identified with that party.
Mr.. Bouic has many friends and is a
leading lawyer of the Maryland bar. and
Mr.. Talbot is likewise popular, but the
latter is a pronounced gold man 1t is be-
lieved he will be handicapped if he strives
for the nomination.
Mr.. Williams Is considered strong in the
upper end of the district while Mr.. Mauls-
by has influential backing in Frederick.
Other names being mentioned, but
the gentlemen mentioned above are beieV-
ed to be those who have the best chances.

Democratic enthusiasm enveloped Mar
shall Hall last night and spread over the
Potomac all the way from Washington
down to that historic spot and back again.
The occasion was the fourth annual excur-
sion OF the Virei mia Democratic Association,
and this in itself would have sufticed to in
spire lots of political exuberance in any
year. but there was IN additional incentive
last night, and that was free silver. There
was not a clear throat among the mascu-
line portion of the excurs, onists when the
re turn trip was commenced and many of
the ladies were also hoarse from joining III
the general cheering that greeted the speak
crs at the Hall. The first of these was Mr.
r. N. Harper, who was called on by Vice
Pre- sident Jones to preside over the meet
ing that was organized in the upper pavii-
ion SHORTLY after the steamer Manchester
had landed its big cargo of passengers.
Mr.. Harper praised the Virginia Demo-
cratic Association for its splendid party
services in the past. and prophesied III
creased activity along the same lines in the
future. Mr.. Harper thought the money
question would be the chief issue in the
campaign, and believed it Was nearer than
any other to the peoples hearts. He intro

when he concluded was given quite an ova

The GOnznga Lawn Fete.

The Gonzaga lawn fete Is growing more
and more in popularity and the receipts of
the big venture are also growing in propor-
ton The crowds In attendance on the fair
nights are steadily increasing In numbers.
while the generosity and liberality of those
who attend is becoming a matter Of COM
ment. The committee hoped to raise $1O,-
600 for the benefit of the new hall, and 1t Is
believed that If the patronage keeps I'D that
sum will be exceeded. The fair has had
rather bad luck in the matter of weather
but those in charge take hold Of every
possible chance during the good weather to
make up for the rainy spells, so that the
fete looks as fresh and new each evening
as though 1t had just been opened to the
public. A large delegation of the Ancient
Order of Hibernians will be present this
evening. accompanied by a part of the Ma
fine Band, which will render music during
their stay at the grounds. The Emmett
Guard will also be present, attended by the
Gonzaga Drum and Bugle Corps The en-
tertainment provided will be an excellent
one and features will be added which were
postponed from last week and the early
part OF this week on account Of the rain.

AGAINST LYNCHING.
Meeting of COlOrcd People to Protest
Against the Practice.

Meeting of COlOred People to Protest
Against the Practice.
A large audience assembled last evening
at the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church,
Rev. George w. Lee, pastor, to discuss
matters connected with the lynching Of
Sidney E. Randolph. Prof. ]. NJ. Langston,
who has been elected temporary president
Of a society which has been formed here to
agitate a sentiment against lynchings. was
called to preside, and Mr.. G. Snowden was
elected secretary.
Upon taking the chair, Mr.. Langston
made an address, during which he stated
ing of white men as Of colored, and that he
thought the lynching of Cooking was
equally as wicked as was that Of Ran
dolph.
DIR. j. NJ. johnson, who 1t was stated was
well posted In reference to the lynching of
Randolph, made an address, during which
he said he was sure that 1t would not be
hard for the authorities of Montgomery
county to pick out the lynchers If they
were SO disposed.
Rev. DR.. j. A. Taylor Of Shiloh Baptist
Church said in the course of his remarks
that eff hing is to be abolished the ne
groes must create the sentiment which will
enact the laws against it in every state of
the Union" Continuing, DIR. Taylor said:
Il think that Gov. Atkinson of Georgia
struck the keynote of this question when
TIC suggested law making IL IeiOny IOr
sheriff to give up a prisoner to lynchers
There are plenty of sensible. fair-minded
white men like the governor of Georgia
who are willing to Join with US in bringing
all lynchers to Justice
Rev. Dr. Lee made one of his character
istic addresses. in the course of which he
said there was no use in trying to bring
Maryland lynchers to Justice yet
After some rems r1s by Thomas L. Jones,
resolutions were passed unanimously de
nouncing all forms Of crime, especially
lynching; also the wanton and reckless
practice Of certain police officers in the
abuse of their official power; also the ST.
lence Of ministers and others for frequently
allowing these matters to pass unnoticed."

Why Are the Gates Locked

10 the Editor Of The yening Star:
I attended the Marine Band open air con-
cert at the White House last Saturday
and as 1 entered the grounds at the east
entrance (south of the treasury one small
gate was open Gin previous years both
small gates were kept OPEN guarded by a
policeman. and on leaving the grounds it
took just ten minutes for the big crowd to
get out through that small gate guarded by
mat same policeman. STILL owing to the
fact that the big double gates and the
other small one we're still locked. as thew
were when entered. Yet Just think of The
mockery OF this over carefulness or neglect
on the proper authorities part, know not
which, when, just as the tailenders were
getting out, another policeman appeared ON
the scene and not only unlocked and OPEN
Ell the big double gates but also the other
small ore. This was done, / suppose to
allow the said two policemen to breathe the
air freely This keeping locked of the big
gates has happened before this year. Can.
not The Star lend it's aid to have the big
gates open while the attendants are leay.

THE RAILROAD WAR.
No Peace Yet Dctveen the Southern
and the 6eahoafd Air Line.

No Peace Yet Dctveen the Southern
and the Seaboard Air Line.
The Southern States Freight Association.
which, met yesterday at Atlanta to con-
slider the question Of the war between the
Southern and seaboard railway companies,
reached no conclusion. The Indications
are that no settlement Of the fight will be
reached today.
The Seaboard has declared its ultimatum
to Its former associates in the Southern
States Freight Association-that the South
ern must withdraw its steamer line be-
tween Baltimore and Norfolk before the
Seaboard will recede from the stand 1t has
taken and withdraw from its cut-rate
schedules.
The Seaboard people are disposed to ridi-
Guile the idea that the Southern may secure
controlling interest in its rival and thus
remove It from the field OF competition
AS has already been intimated in The
star. many of the securities of the Sea-
board are held by Baltimore investors
vestors put their money into the stocks and
ponds or the property with the expectation
that they would get regular dividends, and
the experience of the past has been that
roaus at war do not usually pay dividends.
Unless something unforeseen occurs it is
quite probable that the fight between the
Southern and the Seaboard is far from ad-
1ustment The Southern, so it is said by
line between Baltimore and Norfolk until
after the matter had been considered for
long time, and expenditures amounting
to more than :l.0oo,O00 made. a large por-
ton OF which was for the building of a
railway line from Selma. N. c., to Norfolk
and for terminal facilities at the latter
city.
me demand of the Seaboard is that the
Southern shall not only abandon Its Chesa-
peake bay line Of steamers to Norfolk. if
the Southern comedies the demand, not only
VIII, 1t Is said. all the improvements made
py II at Norfolk be practically abandoned,
out the making of other improvements for
winch the company has made provision
must also be stopped.
II Is stated that not only have the roads
which are Immediately involved in the war
become affected by the cutting OF rates in
augurated by the Seaboard, but that sew
eraI OF the western lines have had their
revenues reduced by reason of merchants
IN the west from whom goods have been
ordered by southern merchants shipping
the goods to Baltimore and thence over the
Seaboard to their destination.

What q Richmond Merchant Says Of
the Vote of Virginia.
Mr.. H. 8. Jennings, a Richmond mer-
chant. who Is spending few days in the
city, says that Virginia will vote for free
silver at the election this fall
HAD the election occurred a month
ago." he said, Maj. Mckinley would have
swept the state, but there has been a COM
plete change in the political sentiment,
and now Bryan and Sewall are certain of
the electol al vote of the state"
Discussing the political situation Mr.
Jennings said that the people OF Virginia
are in favor Of protection, but they have
an idea that an Endorsement of the gold
standard would be an Endorsement of the
millionaires OF the country. Had Cleve-
land been renominated. he said, the demo-
Gratis would not have polled many votes
In the state. and especially in the city of
Richmond.
Now the voters have lost sight Of the
tartn question and are thinking of moth
Ing but free silver.
