THE MARYLAND CAMPAIGN.

The storm centre of the Maryland pO-
Itical campaign is in no small part in
Baltimore. where simultaneously with
the voting for members of the General
Assembly. a municipal election will take
place In the mayoralty contest the
greatest interest focuses, and the fight
there has been the fercest. The Republican
candidate is william II. Master, and
the Democratic Henry Williams. and
one Of the most potent forces in antago-
MIXING the former has been. and is, the
Baltimore Herald, Independent Re
publican.
In it's issue of Sunday that paper an
nounces that the victory for Williams is
as good as won, and quotes Senator Wei
lington, the junior United States Sena-
tor from Maryland, and who is Re-
publican, as concedng Republican de-
moralization and Williams's election by
a large majority.
The election Of members Of the Gene
raj Assembly in Maryland also involves
the election of a successor in the United
States Senate to Senator German,
against whom the "sound money" lead
ers and organs have combined with the
Republicans What are termed Germans
.bosslsm" and "iron hand" are being
used for all they are worth to arouse
feeling against him, and consolidate a
hybrid opposition, but when the matter
Is reduced to its last analysis his posi-
ton on the currency question is found
10 be the true inspiration of the abuse
that is being heaped upon him.
The Herald. in felicitating itself at the
defeat of Master. says that the Balti-
more Republicans. in their desperation
uttered a Macedonian cry TO Mark
Hanna, but 1t fell upon deaf ears, and
the purse-strings of the willy Ohioan
were only drawn closer. Whether Mark
was also deaf to any cry that may have
been raised for help in the Legislative
contests, we have no means OF knowing
on general principles, 1t is reasonable
10 assume that he would have answered
such n cry. unless, indeed, he needs as
begins to seem likely, all the honest
election funds" he can command to saw
his own senatorial bacon.
But. even IL Mark has lent financial
help in the Maryland legislative fight, il
is not unfair so assume that the mora
effect OF Welington's admission regard
ing the situation in Baltimore will have
considerable influence in neutralizins
that help. by discouraging the Republi'
cans and encouraging the Democrats
throughout the State. The Maryland
campaign. as whole, has presented
several complex phases. the real com
plexity of which has been exaggerated
by the efforts OF the anti-DemocratiC
combination 10 distract public attention
from the car dinal underlying issues, ane
heretofore the Republicans and their al
lies have been doing most of the brag
cling. the tomtom beating, and the brass
hand parading. But now that yelling
ton has practically exposed what thl'
policy amounts TO- in respect of Balti
more. the question arises Does 1t amour
10 any more In respect OF the rest o
the state? At any rate, we shall no
despair OF good resuas from the Demo
cratic hold-fast policy, until the election
returns shall have shown that the hgh
has gone against us.

A Confederate College.
Danville Register.)


The Annie Eliza Johns Chapter, Daugh-
tiers OF the COnfederacy. of Danville. has
inaugurated "A movement that has the
Registers hearty and unqualified APP
prevail.
This chapter was the pioneer In the
movement to erect a monument TO the
women Of the Confederacy. Taking a
practical and common-sense view OF the
whole situation. the good women of this
chapter have decided that the best and
most enduring monument TO the women OF
the South would be a woman's college,
to be located on Virginia soil, where the
daughters of Confederate veterans
daughters of the Confederacy-may re-
ceive the advantages of liberal educa-
ton.
This is a grand scheme, and we trust
IL may be abundantly successful.

A contemporary, by way of illustrating
what il terms the "childishness" Of the
hope Of navigating the atmosphere by
balloons or aerOplanes, says that the re-
sistance to be overcome by cars moving
at a very high speed is due not so much
to friction as TO the inertia of the atmos-
phere. The air holds back a body moving
through it at a given speed with the same
force that a wind of the same velocity
would exert on it if the body were at
rest. 1t presses on square foot moving
through it at the rate of forty miles an
hour sufficiently hard to consume H.
horse power in keeping up the velocity.
A car is not far from feet high and
feet broad, and TO move it forty miles an
hour requires an expenditure of 73-horse-
power TO overcome the resistance of the
air. AS this resistance increases as the
square Of the velocity, it requires 2g2-
horsepower to drive a car at the rate OF
eighty miles an hour, but only 16i-horse-
power if the speed is sixty miles an hour.
This is exclusive of the amount required
to overcome friction. Were it not for the
resistance of the air bicyclists and elec-
trio cars could attain a very high speed.
Were it not for this principle some birds
would have been developed in the course
of ages of evolution as large as ele-
plants.
All the same, attempts to solve lhe
problem of aerial navigation will con-
tinue Enthusiasts on the subject arc not
to be "downed" by arguments and Illus
trations like the above.
