Senator WELLINGTON.

In the issue of THE REPUBLICAN
of Nov. 9TH we predicted that Hon,
George L. Wellington would be the
next United States Senator from
Maryland. How we'll our predic-
ton turned out can be seen by read
ing the news columns of to-day's
REPUBLICAN, as he was yesterday
made the choice Of the representa-
tives of the Republican party of
Maryland for that high and hon
ored position. This is as it should
be. No man in Maryland has gwen
to his party the work and attention
that Mir. Wellington has and its
overwhelming victory of last No.
vember is directly attributable to
his magnificent leadership and in
domitable perseverance and polit-
ical skill. Mr.. Wellington is type
of the highest manhood and his
success is due to his own unaided
efforts. He is the best example in
American public life to-day of what
a poor boy with a lofty ambition
can attain. His eloquence is of the
kind that made great name and
fame for Webster and Clay, but the
most prominent characteristic of
the man is his fidelity to his friends
and to this may be ascribed his
rapid advancement in public life.
We predict that he will in the Sen
ate of the United States take his
place among the great men who are
sent there by the slsterhood of
thaat viii be lasting and lmperish-
able.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1896-01-23

with a dramatic climax. His eli
max was vote for Geo. l.. We'll
lington.
The Wellington forces and the
crowd Of strangers in the galleries
went wild with enthusiasm as the
Speaker finished, for nearly every
other man down here among the
visitors is Wellington man, while
the Goldsborough people sat dazed
in their chairs. 1t had only been
on the previous ballot that Mr..
Mudd had voted for the Dorchester
county man for the first time, and
here he was leading the break for
Wellington. 1t took acme minutes
for the excitement to subslde.
GOLDSBOROUGH MEN EXCITED.
The Goldsborough leaders moved
around among their forces, steady
ing them, while Senators Day and
Wilkinson also got around among
the Gary votes in Southern Mary
land, cautloning them to stand to
their guns. As the roll call pro-
ceeded and it was seen that the
break was not general enough to
carry the day on this ballot, all
hands seemed to steady up.
Senator Scott crossed the room to
speak to Mr.. Geo. r. Gather, Jr.
These two are managing the Colds
borough forces between them. The
Senator's face was red, but Mr..
Gather was pale and nervous. Mr..
Scott said. Il thought it was all up
with us that time" and MIR. Gather
heaved sigh of relief.
THREE VOTES FOLLOW THE SPEAKER.
The only men who followed
Speaker Mudd in changing their
ballots to Wellington were Krems
and Jones, of Anne Arundel, and
Norman of Charles. Goldsborough
lost three OF these votes. Mr.. Jones
has been persistently voting for Mr..
Mudd. Goldsborough, however,
gained the vote of Cole, OF Anne
thus making his total loss
three.
Every Wellington man has stood |
closely to his guns, and Mr.. Cum
has telegram from Mr..

Senator Sherman IN his great
speech IN the United States Senate
on the Sd inst. made complete eX-
pose of the faulty financiering of
the Cleveland Administration
Among the significant facts and fig
ures which he gave to show the dis
astrous results Of the Democratic
assaults upon American interests
were the following:
The Secretary of the Treasury re-
ports deficiency of 500, 1903, 26O,58
during the fiscal year ending June
30, 1894, and for the year ending
June 80, 1895, $428,O5, 223,18 and
for the six months prior to Dec. l,
1895, $17,613, 1924; in all $780,
221,O2
| haye a statement showing the
receipts and expenditures under
each law, each month; the Mckinley
law from its passage to the election
of Cleyeland, and the Wilson law
from its passage to Dec. l, 1895.
During the twenty-five months of
the Mckinley law, the average
monthly surplus was S1,129, 1921.
During the existence of the Wilson
law the average monthly deficiency
was S4,699,603.
The agricultural imports during
the first year of the Wilson law GALL
of which are such as are produced
in the Uuited States) were of the
value of SOY, 342.522. During the
last year Of the Mckinley law the
imports of the same farm products
were of the value of S51, 414,S44.
Notably during the same time the
importations of two articles that we
can produce in the United States
were, under the Wilson law, wool
valued at 1922, $50, 791, and hides.
$24, 623,238. Under the Mckinley
law, wool valued at $40, 299, 934 and
hides valued at $1O.48O,562 were
imported, Importations of wool
were increased under the Wilson |
law six fold, and of hides two and a
half fold. The American farmer
was thus deprived of his home mar
ket.
Other importations made during
the year under the Wilson law of
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1896-01-23

articles which we can readily pro-
duce in this county were valued at
1858, 684, 513, while under the Nc
Kinley law the value of the same
articles imported was $172, 49,
Clio.
Under the Wilson law we exported
in year agricultural productions
valued at 1901, 57S, 1856, while dur
ing the last year of the Mckinley
law we exported similar productions
valued at 1871, 1875, 299.

For Better Roads.

Conrad W. Sans, representing
the wheelmen, and II. W. Williams
of the Road League, have prepared
bill to create a State department
of roads and highways, for the pur-
pose of Investigating and reporting
on the road question and for improy-
ing the county roads.
The bill provides for the appoint
ment by the Governor Of an engi-
neer every two years at a salary Of
$1,000 year who shall employ nee
essary assistants, engineers and
clerks under such civil service rules
as may be enacted, their salaries to
be fixed by the board of public
works. 1t is made the duty of the
encouragement to give his counsel
to the engineer whenever requested
to do so by the governor.
1t is made the duty of the engi-
neer to investigate the condition of
the roads of the State and report on
the best means of improving them
on or before January l, 1898, and
to suggest general plan for road
administration either by the State
or counties or jointly. The engi-
neer is subject to the call of county
road commissioners for advice in
making road and bridge improve
ments. The effect of the bill is to

Florida Letter.
vengeance

To the Editor ofThe Republican.
The kindly visits of your excell-
ent REPUBLICAN gives us a weekly
reminder that your Southern cor
respondents have grown exceeding
ig remiss. This is not as it should
be.
Since the burning of our house
last May, this correspondent has
done very little work with the pen.
Rebuilding has been a great strain
on me, and other matters have been
put aside. But through kindness
of God and men, and persistent eff
fort on our part, the house is so far
restored as to render us compar-
atively comfortable.
The present winter has been, so
far, less severe than the preceding,
yet cold enough to make it unusual
for this climate. In this, higher
ATTITUDES have had similar exper-
fence, it seems, on this continent
at least. The southwark flow of
immigration has certainly not been
checked by the operations of Jack
Frost" IN this direction. MANY,
very many, are coming, more es-
pecially farmers, into all the Gulf
states, and Florida receives a good
quota.
I desire, in this letter, to direct
the attention of old soldier COM
rades among your patrons, to an
immense colonization enterprise in
southern Georgia, known as the
cold Soldiers Colony" Through
the efforts of Mr.. Fitzgerald of the
Americun Tribune, indianapolis,
Indiana, aided by Ex-Governor
NorUhen, of Georgia, a tract of
some 40, 900 acres of fine lands have
been secured in Irwin and Wilcox
acre. This vast body of land is d.
v'ded up among some 10000 shares
of stock mainly held by ex-federal
soldiers; and at this time 5000 or
more of these men are on the
ground, building southern homes.
The location is only little above
100 miles north of us, and we, hay
ing two shares of stock, think of
making a home there also, some
time in the future.
This IS the largest colonization
scheme ever carried to success in
this country, and it is most likely
that the community will become
one of the most prosperous centres
of the State and Fitzgerald one of
the leading cities.
I want to add that this is no.
body's speculation. The colony is
under cooperative system, with
no salaried officers, and all sharing
equally. Another year will see 30
900 people on the lands.
Should be glad to answer any
questions by cold Boys" should
they feel interested.
