Mudd For Senator.

Let Democrats who think of cutting
our Delegate ticket call to mind the
part Mr.. Mudd played during the last
Legislature. Let Republicans bear in
mind that Mudd was the man who
combined with Malster to absolutely
kick Wellington out of the Republi-
can Convention at Ocean City. We'll
lington will be in the United Safes
Senate for five years and will have a
say upon all important Republican ap-
pointments iu this State, all that are
to be confirmed by the Senate will be
considered by Wellington. If Demo-
Gratis and Republicans vote the Repub-
lican Delegate ticket of this county, it
means simply voting for lot of men
absolutely under the control Of Mr.
Motter, who will cast their votes for
Mudd. Republicans have made their
deal against Post-master-General Gary,
John Shaw and other prominent Re-
publicans of Maryland. Ii Democrats
want such man as Mudd they will
vote the Republican Delegate ticket,
that is all there is in the matter.

"Illiterate" Voters.

II will be interesting to know how
many voters on the registration lists
of this county are marked 'illiterate?m
Under the Democratic ballot law the
voting of this class of persons was abso-
lutely secret, but now the law makes
it easy for the Republican machine to
control and regulate the "negro vote"
They as rule are illiterate and. many
are instructed to say so. even in case
they can read and write, so that when
they come to vote they can call to their
assistance the services of the two ballot
clerks Of opposite political affiliations
and have them prepare their ballot as
desired. The clerks are not sworn to
secrecy as heretofore and this enables
the Republicans to keep tab on the
colored voter and see that he votes as
they want him to do. IF he does not,
then the word goes forth and all man
ner Of means are employed to make
him regret his action. Several parties
have remarked to Us during this and
last years registration, on the number
Of persons who had marked opposite to
their names the word s'iIliterate. !"
The Republicans are up to all these lit
tie lodges and tricks and will stop at
nothing to perpetuate their power in
Maryland. Will Democrats be parties
to such lease Of power after this rec
ord Of ''misrule" charged against
them?

A Good Record.

Let every taxpayer read the splendid
record made by the Democratic County
Commissioners. The Republicans at
the last Legislature extended the old
term of two years to four years. and
yet they hope to create discord in the
Democratic ranks by crying out against
the six-year term Of Commissions
That is all over, we do not fight dead
issues, yet why not say that our COM
missioners did well for the taxpaves47
If it had not been for the RepubI|cHn
assessment law, which cost the tax
payers thousands Of dollars We would
have had splendid showing for '1e
people. Yet with even the Rep1t|i.
can assessment law see what our l4x4
are compared with other counties

The Maryland Editors Active
Campaign.

For some months past the CITIZEN
has been publishing articles descrlp-
tive of the management of the various
depSr,ments of the State and their
record during their brief administra-
ton. Our readers are aware OF the
purport Of these articles and how they
have shown UP the various phases OF
Republican misrule in Maryland.
The Republican organs have ridiculed
them. but have failed to controvert
them bv facts and figures and success
full argument. The Democratic Edl-
tors' Association, feeling the necessity
Of letting the people see the true state
of things ana knowing that no trust
and reliability could be placed in certain
journals of Baltimore which have gone
over 10 the Republicans, felt that their
obligations TO their party compelled
them 10 get together and thwart the
inSidious influence of the enemies OF
Democracy and give the plain truth
10 the people. Their exposures have pro-
duced widespread sensation and have
shown the people how the Republicans
posing as reformers administered to
its own party rather than to the peo-
pies interest Among the many mat
tiers dessieated and shown up in their
eolers by the Democratic Editors As
soeiation were the defective registration
and election laws which destroyed the
secrecy of the ballot and allowed loop
holes for the control of the negro vote
whilst complying to the letter of the
law. The new registration in this
State cost the people 100000, and was
unnecessary; the civil service reform
force bill and hypocrisy of the Repub-
lieans; how Lowndes prostituted the
patronage of his office to make Mudd
Congressman and Wellington Senator,
and how the Legislature passed civil
service reform amendment to be SUBJ
mitted to the voters of the State,
afraid to take the responsibility on
their own shoulders, and for which
baby act they received the condemna-
ton of the press and public; the Off
cial corruption which has existed in
Baltimore and the State SINCE the Re
publicans came into power; how the
leaders honestly disclaimed PARTISAN
ship before the election and after how
they clamored for the spoils of Office
and official rascality ran rampant;
how Mayor Hooper appointed negro
superintendent for street cleaning and
white men discharged: how at AnDap-
oils the Legislature was public mart
for buyer and seller; how the officials
in the tobacco warehouses carried bo-
gus names on the payroll, and how
the Hon. Sidney E. Mudd is to be
chosen Senator if the Republicans are
to be put in power again, the many de-
fects and inequalities and enormous
expenses without proportionate bene-
fits of the new assessment law, and
how rich corporations escape their just
share of taxation; in fact, the entire
field has been covered with excellent
skill and directness that has produced
CONSERVATION among the enemy. Let
our readers peruse the last two install
ments which appears in the CITIZEN
this week on the inside pages and con-
slider them carefully, and then if they
refuse to help restore the Demo-
cratic party TO power and stamp out
the abuses which have grown so fla
grant during Republican rule, the
fate Of Maryland is sealed for many
years to come.

Flying Republican Colors.

Well, We did think the Datiy Nelos
would maintain its independence, but
from its editorial denouncing Mr.. We'll
lington for having the manhood to
protest against the ingratitude of poll
teal friends, it looks as if it had
thrown off the mask and declares itself
a straightout Republican journal. Mr..
Wellington, however, is far from being
without powerful influence, and those
who have shamefully abused him will
find il out 10 their cost.
The citizen., 1897-10-29

WELLrNGToN is confident Of victory
for the Democratic party Honest Re
publicans repudiate the shameful
schemeing and intrigue at the Ocean
City convention, by which Mudd and
Malster contrived 10 oust Wellington
20 that they could have clear field.
In this county Haffner was turned
down al the convention and the Mot
ter faction ruled the day by means that
disgusted all fair-minded men and the
friends q Haffner and the other aspi-
rants for the various nominations. They
have g common and just grievance
and there : no doubt but that their
in5ue1ee vii be felt on.election day.

The copper country evening news. [volume] (Calumet, Mich.) 18??-1907, 1897-11-12

The weather remained good-very
chilly at night, but pleasant during the
day. A scarcity of food now threatened
again. The provisions supplied by Pous-
SIN were about gone. and on the even
ing OF the fourth day the last remaining
scraps were devoured.
In two days. or three at the most,
we will reach Vladivostok, I" said Cap
tain Daroman. "We must get along as
best we can until then. We have weap-
ons, 1t is true, but it would be unwise
to make use of them.
I'VE have money also." said Platoff,
Jingling the belt of rubles, "but it
might as well be so much dirt for all
the good it can do us. -
1t will come of use. though, later
ON, he added. "a hundred rubles will
be strong temptation to some ship
captain in the harbor Of Vladivostok. I"
Then before it grew dark he set some
snares i'll the forest. though with little
hope of trapping anything. But the
morning brought with it pleasing sur
prise. The despised snares contained
one rabbit, the other a bird. A fire was
kindled, and the game was cooked and
eagerly devoured. This afforded strength
for another days journey, and late in
the afternoon they stopped ON the banks
OF narrow stream.
With some loose stones Platoff con-
structed rude triangular dam across a
shallow part Of the channel, leaving a
narrow aperture in the center. At this
place he held rude net made from the
lining of his coat, while Maurice and
Phil, entering the stream some yards
above, waded slowly down toward the
dam, beating the waterpn each side with
sticks. In this way dozen nice fish
were procured, sufficient for supper that
night and breakfast the following morn
Ing. Poussin had given them some salt,
and Maurice had fortunately held on to
the bottle of red pepper; so, with the
aid of these condiments, the fish were
quite palatable.
They travelled that day with increased
caution and halted when the sun was
low in deep valley.
All were visibly excited. One more
narch-less perhaps-would bring them
to Vladivostok. They forgot for the
moment what yet lay before them-per-
lis to appall the stoutest heart.
Bidding his companions remain hid
den in the bushes, Platoff climbed up
the steep hill to the eastward, hoping to
gain sight of the distant sea, but the
horizon was dimmed by misty gray
clouds, and he returned disappointed.
"Vladivostok is not far away" said
Captain Daroman. 81 am sure of that,
for have been in this locality before.

cut Jack Was Obtuse, and Then, Too, He
Was Going Away.
A yang married woman, the wife Of
the private secretary of "a western congress
man, was one of party one evening talk
ing about leap year. II proposed to my
husband" said she, "and it wasn't leap
year, and I'm not new woman" Every
one was anxious to hear how she happened
to do 1t, for she is lovely woman of the
womanly type, and the last one in the
world to ever ask man to marry her.
Then, too, she was "a belle and had hosts
of admirers, many of whom would have
been glad to have won her.
"Why, / don't know how 1t happened.
You see Jack had been attentive to me
for years, and every little while would tell
me how much he loved me and ask me II
could care for him. I put him off, and
then, after two or three years, he began to
neglect telling mo of his love. In the
meanwhile 1 learned to love him and tried
in every way to make him speak, but
when he called, he never wanted to see me
alone, and always tried to have some of
the family about. When we were alone,
he was moody and silent, and no amount
of sweetness on my part would bring him
to another avowal.
"At last he called and said that he was
going to Washington; that there was no
use of his staying out west. There were
no ties to hold him, and no one for whom
he especially cared. / used my best en-
deavors to dissuade him and limited in ev-
cry way possible that he might expect
favorable answer If he would ask me 10
marry him. Jack said good night to the
people, and went to the door with him.
We stood at the entrance some time, and I
tried so hard to bring him out but no use
He spoke of no one caring for him, and all
that sort of thing. Finally we shook
hands, and he loft. 1 saw him walk down
the yard, and as he reached the gate
called to him to come back. 1 had seen
him leave me forever in that minute and
could not stand It, When he came up the
steps, said, Jack, care for you great
deal The rest naturally followed, and
we were married in the spring. Wash
