Mr.. Meekton had been out several
minutes later than usual the night
before, and there was a decided
chilliness at the breakfast table. a
silence which had seemed much
longer than it was, in fact, was sud-

resentatives. See how they have
fingered and talked over the tariff"

The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1897-10-14


Less than three weeks from to-day
the battle of the ballots shall have
been fought in this State and the
result announced.
The time is getting short; are you
ready for the contest which will de
eide whether Maryland will be known
as Republican or as a Democratic
boss-ridden State?
If the forces which in two general
elections won great victories are
again successful, it will mean that a
sound-mOney man will represent
Maryland in the United States Senate
in the place of A. p German, whose
career on the financial issue is we'll
known-at one time in favor of the
gold standard, then a silverite, and
now "a straddler of the most pro-
nounced type.
Not only that, should the Demo
Gratis win, German will continue the
dictator, the supreme boss and the
party manipulation.
The failure of the Republicans in
the coming contest would prove a
blow of such magnitude that the con-
sequences may be viewed with the
gravest apprehension.
Have you done all in your power to
enhance the success of the Republican
party? An active, vigilant course will
give you victory, lukewarmness will
as surely bring defeat.
In the brief period that the Repub-
licans have been in power much has
been accomplished; success this year
will result in other needed reforms.
From now on let every Republican,
every well wisher of IA sound currency,
an honest ballot, good government
and the State freed from ring rule do
his full duty; then Gormanism in
Maryland will be thing of the past.

ton his authority as a scholar, as he
is a thorough scholar not only in the
common branches but in psychology,
minerology, geology, astronomy and
all the arts and sciences of modern
times, and being man of stature and
brawny muscles we have no doubt
he could acquit himself as warrior
equal to Napoleon at the great battle
of Waterloo. But Notwithstanding
that, we do question his ability as Il
judge of music and especially when he
was absent at the time of the contest.
We admit he is lover of good music

calling on the Sang Run class but to
be judge it requiris one who has
undergone long years of study along
that line. As for one of our class ad
uniting defeat he emphatically denies

singers in the Hoyes class we will
leave that for the public to decide.
And, finally, the Hoyes class has ac-
knowledged defeat by refusing to sing
in the next contest.

THE Republican candidates for
County Commissioners, Messrs. Geary
and Kelso, are both men of fine exec
utive ability, and have shown by the
manner in which they conduct their
private affairs that they are perfectly
competent to administer the public
business of Garrett county.
The Commissioners Office is very
important one and one in which every
taxpayer is vitality interested. We
want men of good judgment who will
be as careful of the peoples money as
their own, and yet willing to make
the appropriations for necessary i'm
provements. The people want men
who will see that the money collected
from the people is spent in an eco
monte manner, and who, in the mat
ter of good roads and public schools
will be willing to appropriate what is
necessary and nothing more.
Messrs. Geary and Kelso will be
elected, for they are the proper men
for the position and we predict that
they will so conduct the Office that it
will soon be shown that their selec-
ton was not a mistake.

THE Democratic nominee for the
State Senate, Mr.. Getty, in his speech
at the county convention spoke of his
interest in the old soldiers. but if he
expects to get the vote of any of the
boys who in their country's peril
offered their lives in defense of home
and country, he is badly mistaken.
The old soldiers know full well that
they have no favOrs to expect from
the Democratic party. They have
not forgotten the VetOS of President
Cleveland, nor the outrageous con-
duet of Hoke Smith. They will not
vote this time to send q Democrat to
the United States Senate, but for a
good Republican, who will be a true
friend of the soldier, who will stand
up and fight for the rights of the de
tenders of our cOuntry's flag. No,
Mr. Getty, the boys who wore the
blue in this fight will be aided by
many of the boys who wore the gray,
who are opposed to Gormanism and
Rasinism, and standing shoulder to
shoulder they will do their part as
brave men to defeat German, who
has ruled our state so long. The Old
soldier has had enough of the blight
ing, whitening curse of Gormanism,
and they will see to it that no man
goes to the Legislature to vote for the
return Of German to the United States
Senate
