Omission.

Our ever alert and careful contemporary
the Sentinel, omitted to make any reference to
the state and local elections last week. 1t
did not even let lis readers know that any
elections had been held. Perhaps it was so
oveuoyed at the prospect of the fine dinner
to be given the Republican editors that the
unprecedented Democratic victories could not
disturb it. The dinner was announced but
not the Democratic victories. Perhaps the
greater victories of next fall will arouse our
neighbor to realization that the G. o. P
is on the toboggan, very particularly in Mary
land

Protaction Comes Dear.

The Providence, r. l., journal, one of the
most conservative newspapers in the country.
declares that son moderate estimate the
5000, 900, 600 which the Dingley tariff is ex-
pected to raise for the Government will cost
the people $4,000, 900, 900 III advanced
prices. While taking one dollar from the
right-hand pocket ofthe taxpayer for the use
of the Government, Mr.. Dingley has so ar
ranged his schedules that the protected in
dustries shall reach their hands into the tax
payers left-hand pocket and take from it six
dollars and half. Protection comes very
dear

The Tariff on Straw.
From the baltimore Sun.

From the Baltimore sun.
We have already taken occasion to advert
to some of the excellent features of the Ding
lev bill. Every good thing in it should be
brought forward into prominence. That IS
the secret of happiness in this life. 1t Is
surely unjust to eensure Mr.. Dingley for his
excess of zeal in protecting our infant indus
tries and standing between our free American
labor and the pauper labor of Europe and not
give him credit for those features of his bill
which show that zeal has been tempered with
Judgment One of the items of the bill, which
has been hailed with delight from the rock
ribbed coast of Maine to the golden sands of
the Pacific, is the tax on straw. 1t would,
perhaps, be more proper, since 1t has been
shown that tariff is not a tax, to call 1t a
protection for the relief and encouragement of
the languishing straw ricks of the prairies.
The amount of the protection has been placed
by Mr.. Dingley at $3.50 a ton.
This beneicent measure will enable us TO
fill our treasury with gold eXtorted from etfete
Europe or whatever effete country that shall
now undertake to interfere with the free and
glorious straw ricks of Kansas and Nebraska
and the two Dakotas. The foreigner pays the
tariff, according to Dingley, and he must pay
81. so for every ton of straw he sends to us
If he sends three hundred million tons of
straw over here annually think what vast
sum of British or other gold this Will BRING
into our treasury and how the American
farmer will be relieved and encouraged 1t
will be a sum sufficient for the pension pay
roll. This item OF the bill will alone justify
us in applauding Mr.. Dingley, not only as an
eminent fnancier, but as frie2 of the farmer
and his straw rick. Nothing will sustain and
encourage agriculture more than this tariff
upon the great influx of foreign pauper straw
into the United States.

More Democratic victories.

The local elections in New Jersey on Tues
day, like those in the West last week and in
New York few weeks previous, show Demo-
cratic victories or gains everywhere. Jersey
City was reclaimed by the Democrats by a
large majority and Paterson, which gave Nc
Kinley $500 majority last November, elected
a Democratic mayor by 1000 majority.
The hosts of Democracy are closing up
ranks everywhere and marching to victory.

Ex-Governor Browns views.

Ex-Governor Frank Brown does not think
tie Democratic party needs any reorganiza-
ton. In an interview in Baltimore paper
he said
To say that organization. political or military,
that had been generally successful for quarter of
a century was incompetent to conduct a successful
campaign owing to its having been defeated in one
or two contests would, in my Judgment be an ex-
traordinary position to assume.
The Ex-Governor believes the Democratic
party can win in the coming election, and
thus tells how it can be done
Ifthe Democratic party in Maryland will consult
public sentiment and nominate men throughout
the entire State in whom the people have conf
dence, men who are free from all personal bias or
personal preference for future honors, whatever
they may be, but who will stand solely and alone
for the best interests of our people and country
predict that enthusiasm viii prevail over this
State in the minds of the Democracy and the public
pulse will respond with degree OF zeal that viii
send the Democratic party back into power rs sud
denly as it removed it from power.
The arms of the party should be thrown vide
open to receive into its ElnSs without question ali
voters who desire good government, pure men and
methods, And if this policy is adopted, neither
the independent press nor the independent voter
can successfully antagonize the party on its road to
success

BRYANT'S FRAUDS.
He Secured Over $500 Since Last
October.
From the Baltimore News. April 10.

Commissioner of STRENGTHENING Bostwick
today completed an examination of the ac-
counts of DIR. George Wellington Bryant,
colored, ex-superintendent of the Third
Street Cleaning district, who was recently
dismissed for falsifying payrolls, and who Is
now under indictment.
The amount Bryant is said to have secured
from the city fraudulently since last October
foots up $780, The time book does not ex-
tend back further than October, so that it will
be impossible to determine the total OF
Bryant's populations during the year he was
in Office Judging from his tricks since Dc
tober, as shown by the time-book, the city
was defrauded out of much more than the
amount of Bryant's official bond, $1,000.
