REPUBLICANS GIVE II UP.

The Republicans of Maryland have a
bandoned hope of carrying Maryland next
November Wellington is we'll aware
that his party will be defeated. Gen. Ag
nus, editor of the american, has publicly
admitted it, and John V. L. Findlay, who
aspires to be United States Senator, in a
club speech, warned his audience that
there would oe mo such avalanche as
there was in 1895 and 1885,
The Republican party will make as Wig
orous a fight as it can, and the Republi-
can press and campaign speakers will
hold out hope of success, but all who are
honest or not too blind we'll known that
Maryland will elect Democratic Comp
troler and Clerk of the Court of Appeals
and Democratic Legislature next Nov
ember.
Democrats will be cheered by this, but
not lulled into inactivity. The next cam
paign will be more vigorously prosecuted
on the Democratic side than any campaign
for years. and rebuke to Republican
misrule and incompetency will be admin
istered similar to that of 1897, except that
the governorship cannot be recovered

THE GOVERNMENT EMB-AR-
RASSED.

The Baltimore Sun says: The failure of
the House to consider the report upon the
sundry civil appropriation bill and the res
olution making Immediately available GER
tain appropriations for the use of the gov
eminent is causing no little embarrass-
ment The government printing office
will be without money to defray current
expenses after tomorrow. The bureau of
printing and engraving is also embarrass-
ed, while the courts of the city are with
out money to pay Jurors fees. Some of
these expenses are provided for in the
sundry civil bill, and the money is
made Immediately available. The print
l.ing office expenses are provided form the
Especial resolution which passed the SEN
Fate the first of last week, and the re-
mainder are provided for in the general
deficiency bill, which is still in the Senate
Committee on appropriations. For the
latter the House is not in any manner re-
sponsible, but Senators may very well
feel that it is useless to send additional
bills to the House when it has refused to
consider those now before it.
There never was a minority i'll legisla-
tive body so etfectually deprived of near

different from the other. Mr.. Dlngley's
measure was for revenue and protection.
Mr.. Aldrich expressly states his measure
to be for protection and frankly comedies
no revenue can be expected from it for
two wears To supply this he adds the in
ternal revenue features, which have elicit
ed such wide spread opposition.

GREAT NDERS.

The Baltimore correspondent of the
New York Freeman's Journal writes as
follows to that paper: THE invitation of
the Baltimore Sun, some three weeks ago
for "A symposium of ideas, or, more plainly
a public expression of choice for the two
Marylanders deemed most worthy to be
honored by statues in the Hall of Statuary
in the National Capitol at Washington,
has elected large number of communi-
cations on the subject to that paper, and
taken together they form the most valua-
BILE contribution to Maryland history and
biography written in many years. These
communications have, in nearly every
case, emanated from the pens of some
men and women in the State, and have
proved not only genuine sources of his
toric education to the public at large, but
have served to quicken patriotic impulses
and to implant a more complete realiza-
ton of how prolific Maryland has been in
the production of men who were the very
pillars of liberty, examples of the highest
courage and possessors of the most
brilliant and vigorous intellectually
MANY of these names have long been
familiar to the public intelligence and
are held in grateful appreciation by our
people. But there were others whose
lives were hardly less worthy and noble
that were true to the dictates of grand
manhood and generous benefactors of
their race and country, whose deeds were
less asserted and who were in measure
buried in unmerited obscurity. This
symposium of ideas has Sc rived the very
good purpose of giving these worthless
their proper place in the long line of sol
diers. statesmen, sailors, poets and others
whose memory we have been accustom-
ed to venerate. and who will now have
fitting companionship in the esteem and
affection of successive generations

The crop experts say that the 1897
wheat crop will sell somewhere between IS
and IS cents a bushel. The situation in
brief is that the French and English crops
of wheat will amount to comparatively
little, while Australia, India and Argen
tina will have wheat for export. Ameri
can wheat therefore will come in compe
tition only with wheat from Russia and
the Danubian Provinces The reserves of
wheat all over the world have been re-
duced to the minimum. There is much
corn and many cattle in America and both
will be in demand because of the unusual
demand for wheat

WHAT is THOUGHT OF MIR.
STANLEY OUTSIDE THE
CIRCUIT.

We clip the following from the Rock
vile montgomery county, Sentinel of Fri
day.
Among the several distinguished gen.
tlemen whose names have been prominent
ly mentioned in connection with the Dem
ocratic nominations for the two Associate
Judgeships in the eth Judicial Circuit. to
be made this Fall, we notice that of Mr..
Charles H. Stanley, of Laurel, Prince
| Georges county. Our personal knowl-
edge, coupled with the well known repu-
tation of Mr.. Stanley, warrants us in the
| assertion, that should the judicial ermine
| fall upon his shoulders it will be borne
with becoming dignity, aud no one need
| fear that he will allow a singl stain to
rest upon the hem of the royal robe. Mr.
Stanley occupies a very unique niche in the
legal column of his district and State. and
is eminently qualified to meet and dis
charge the very grave questions which
must necessarily confront such an angus
| tribunal.
Mr.. Stanley's large and varied practice,
with an occasional appearance as men,
Der of the lower branch of the Maryland
Legislature has kept him continuously
before the people for number of years
du.ing all these years his strict attention
to business, his fair and impartial dealing
and high moral bearing has given him a
hold on public confidence such as any man
might we'll be proud of.
Mr.. Stanley whilst "A staunch Democrat
is not in the general deception of the term
a politician, and the knowledge of this
fact, and an appreciation of those other
qualifications which we have named has
made him one of the most popular men in
his district and county, and consequently
one of the strongest.

The Order of Railway Conductors has
recently organized Capital Division No.
37S in Washington, of which the conduc-
tors on roads centering in that city are
members. A magnificent conductors
triple plated nickle lamp has been present
ed to this division to be disposed of as
the division deems best to add to their
fund for the care of disabled and aged
conductors and their families. 1t has been
decided to present the lamp to the most
popular conductor on the four roads cen
tering in Washington, the Southern, Penn
sylvania, B. & o. and c &. o., each road
present to a candidate and the most popular
of the four to be determined by voting
contest. The votes will cost 10 cents
apiece and the whole world can vote.
The Southern Railway men have selected
as their candidate ir the contest that pop
ular conductor; Captain }. L. wilkins,
and, of course, their pride is now
up and they want to see him bear off the
honor There is every reason to believe
that he will do it, too, for Captain Will
kies is known to and is exceedingly pop
ular with the travelling public from Wash
in gton to New Orleans and is genuine
good fellow" Books of tickets are on
sale at all points along the Southern
Railway and those who invest in them
will be aiding most worthy cause. Full
instructions as to how to vote are
printed on each ticket. The voting is to
continue for 60 days.

A CARD.
To the Voters of tile Seuenth
ISepentH Judicial Circuit


Seuenth Judicial Circuit:
IN view of the fact that my name for
/ some time pas: has been mentioned in
connection with the position of Associate
Judge and having been pressed by friends
to be a candidate and to publicly define
nv position, | take this method of saying
publicly If the Democratic voters of the
Circuit desire me as Il candidate and in
the exercise of their own will, honor me
with the omination, l will accept IL with
"a full appreciation of the honor confer
red,-assuming all the responsibilities it
incurs-and if elected will endcavor to
perform the duties honestly, conscien-
tiously and with all the ability God has
given me.
But believing, as l do, that it detracts
from the dignity of the high office of
Judge to enter the scuffle of politics for a
nomination and that the primaries and
conventions should be free to express
their choice and make the nominations
with an eye single to the best interests OF
the people and the party, l shall consist
ly maintain this position. The case is
with them-with them l leave it.
Very Respectfully,

between o'clock Monday afternoon and
little after . O'Clock in Maryland, the
District of Columbia, Virginia, West Eir-
ginia North Carolina and South Carolina,
Tennessee, Georgia, Kent CIV, Ohio, In

The shocks lasted but a few seconds CT
minutes at each place and caused little
damage Some chimncys were tumbled
down and pieces of walls fell out. There
was no loss O. life or injury to person as
far as reported
Some persons were nauseated or mace

direction of the shock varied in different
localities.

will make nomination equivalent to an

that the people will make the nomination
equivalent to a defeat. Baltimore is ex-
