sham Non-Partisanship.


Police Commissioner johnson, of Balti
more, is a spokesman, pure and simple. He
would like to appear otherwise to the public,
and he is feighing an honesty in the discharge
of his duties that Is as refreshing as the pro
fessed honesty in politics of the Duke of We'll
lington Johnson would like to turn out every
policeman who is Democrat, but is afraid of
adverse criticism by the San and Ne,os, the
journals that have made Republican, success
possible in Baltimore Heis, however, look
ing out for plausible excuses to turn out
Democrats, and on Monday thought he had
caught one off duty. Investigation showed
that the vigilant ex-postmaster's zeal outran
his knowledge.
The majority of the Police Board are Re-
publicans, and they are extremely anxious to
make the police force partisan. They do not
boldly come out and make it so for fear of
losing the mugwump vote of the city. If
another Republican victory should be scored
in this state, all the sham of non partisanship
will be thrown off and the Radical Repubh
cans would show themselves in their true
light.

VIII Not Avail.

Mr.. H. A. Parr and his Committee of Sew
enty of the Honest Money Democratic League
of Maryland have taken upon themselves a
most herculean task. They want to have
Postmaster Warfeld of Baltimore re-appoint-
ed. Mr.. Parr says the $1,000 Republican
majority of Maryland was made up by Demo
cratic votes and that Mr.. Warfeld's 'advice
and counsel contributed as much or more
than any man of either party TO MeKinley's
success.
Mckinley, no doubt, thanks Mr.. Warfeld
for his assistance in the campaign and also
the whole Honest Money League; still he has
no large offices TO bestow upon them. Their
efforts will not avail in behalf of Mr.. Warfield.
Mckinley is looking for men Of political
stability. Mr.. Warfeld proved false to the
Democratic party, and Mckinley would have
no assurance that, if he should appoint him
postmaster. he would not take the whole
postofice force and vote them against the
Republican party when the within should seize
him. The Baltimore postoffice is a big politi
cal machine, and the Mckinley Administra-
tration is not likely to put uncertain engineers
in charge of machines, big or little. Mr..
Parr may as well save time and trouble and
settle down under the inevitable-that Mr..
Warfeld will soon be ex-Postmaster of Balti-
more and ex -waated-to-be postmaster of the
whole state, including Ellicott City.

Eastern Shore Republicans, who are ex-
pecting to have a United States Senator elect
ed from ene of their number, may as well
dismiss the hope. In the event of Republican
success next fall Sydney Mudd, of Charles
county, will most likely be elected. He is
not fit for the place. He has not a single
qualification, but he and Wellington have
combined, and the pair will be able to con
troll the Legislature. Gov. Lowndes is can
didate, also, bat Wellington, having ridden
to place and power on the Governors respec-
liability, has no further use for him, and he
will go back to his home in Cumberland at
the end of his term.

The News as a Tarin Reformer.

The Baltimore Ners pretcnds to be in favor
of tariff reform-a tariff laid for revenue only
and not with the purpose Of benefting any
special interest. In its criticism of the Ding
lev bill, however, it complains that the bill
abolishes the drawback on exported tin cans,
which it says is .'utterly inexeusable. "
Canning is one of the chief industries Of
MARYLAND, and the Ners would like to have
special favor to the Gamers. There is at
present tax of one cent and one-hfth a
pound ON tin. When the lin is made into
cans and exported with oysters, fruits, vege-
tables. &C.. in them the tax is refunded. The
Ne.rs regrets the abolition of this drawback,
because il puts at a disadvantage our goods
when they meet competition in foreign mark
cts.
Now how does this drawback operate ?
When canned goods are sold in the home
market the tax on the tin in the cans is added
TO the price ofthe goods. When the goods are
sold to foreigners, the tax is refunded, and
not added to the price of the goods. In other
words, the drawback operates to make canned
goods higher to our people than to foreigners.
And the wall of the Ne,es is over the fact that
under the Dingley bill foreigners will have to
pay as much for our canned goods as our home
people, or the exporters will have TO take less
for American canned goods.
We had occasion to remark several weeks
ago that the Cleveland organs had a very poor
conception Of the Democratic idea of tariff
reform, and here is forcible illustration of
it. TIE DINGHY bill is monstrosity of in
Justice and favoritism, and far more objec-
tionable in some respects than the Mckinley
law. but the abolition of the drawback on
coverings for exported goods is not one Of its
bad features.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1897-03-27

The excuse for tariff changes given by Me-
Kinley and the Republican party, is the need
for more revenue to meet the expenses of
government. In the years since the present
tariff went into effect great business depres
sien has prevailed, and Notwithstanding this
the deficiency is now only about S25, 900, 900.
The Dingley bill, so its author said in pre-
selst;ng it to the House OF Representatives,
will add about S113, 900, 600 to the revenues.
In view of this great excess of revenue, it
would seem that the bill is laid to protect and
foster trusts rather than to make up the def
cheney in the revenue. A little economy in
expenditures would make the receipts and
expenditures balance. Economy is what the
country needs, not higher taxation.

Little Carl was our darling,
Pride of all our hearts at home:
But the angels whispered softly,
Little Carl do come home.
The little crib is empty now,
The little clothes laid by;
A mothers hope, fathers JOY,
In deaths cold arms doth lie.
Farewell dear babe. we hope to meet thee
In the mansions in the skies;
Oh twill be glorious then to greet thee
And forever dwell in paradise.

Death has robbed us of our brother,
All no earthly tongue can tell,
But the dear God who hath bereft us
He can all our sorrows heal
Co little pilgrim, to thy home
on Wonder blissful shore;
We miss thee here. but soon Will come
Where thou hast gone before.
God needed one more angel child
Amidst His shining band;
And so he bent with loving smile
And clasped our darling's hand.

Tax on Mating.

Under the proposed Dingley tariff bill straw
mating valued at ten cents yard and less is
taxed at eight cents yard Mating valued
at over ten cents a yard is taxed eight cents a
yard and twenty per cent ad volorem.
This means that mating that is valued at ten
cents a yard, is taxed eight cents, making the
price eighteen cents. This eight cents tax is
charged to the consumer, and every purchaser
who buys yard of mating pays eight cents
tax to the government. This tax gives the
home manufacturer protection of eight
cents, and enables him to add four, five or
even seven cents yard to the price Of his
goods and then undersell foreign made goods.
When person buys home made mating he
pays tribute to the home manufacturer OF
four. FIVE or even seven cents yard.

Get Your Statements Correct

"The sound-meney Democrats have been. den
mite and finally read out OF the party by the West
minister Democratic Advocate '-BdHtoiore Ne'cs.
Oh, no! The ADVOCATE did nothing of the
kind. All Democrats favor sound money,
gold and silver of the Constitution. Cans and
Bruce, who veted the Republican ticket ID
1895 and 1896, and announced an un-Demo :
cratic course for the future, put themselves out
of the party and the ADVOCATE announced the
fact. 1t also said that the party would rejoice
if Cans and Bruce and all alleged Democrats
who agree with them would meet and formal
ly resolve that they no longer claimed to be
Democrats.
That is the substance of what the ADvo-
CATE said, and we repeat it. The Ne'cs ought
