The Democratic State Central
Committee met in Baltimore on
Wednesday.
Baltimore city was selected as the
place of meeting for the Democratic
State convention on July 2Sth.
Provision was made for the APP
pointment Of campaign committee
for Baltimore city, whose duty it
shall be to look after registration,
and supervise things generally.
The Second Judicial Circuit con-
vention (Which is our DlstricD for
the purpose of nominating candi
dates for chief judge and two asso-
ciate judges will be held on June
80, at 2 p. M, at Denton, Caroline
county.
Mr.. l. Freeman Rasin resigned
as a member of the State Central
committee, and Mr.. John M. Jones
was chosen to fill the vacancy. 1t
will be remembered that Mr..
Rasin was charged with selling out
to the goldbugs last fall, and most
people believed it.
The resolutions passed by the
convention were of the milk and
water kind.
The Republican State Central
Committee met in Baltimore on
Wednesday. The meeting was
characterized by harmony, and
everybody is apparently satisfied.
Master men claim a big victory;
Wellington followers deny it.
The Republican State convention
will be held at Ocean City on
August Goth.
The convention was principally
concerned about the factional fight
between Master and Wellington.
Sidney Z. Mudd and Wellington
appear to be in the saddle and the
Master crowd are travelling on foot.
The conventions of both parties
gave no signs of national policy.

No Concessions to Gold Boilers.

There is talk i'll some quarters of fusing
with the gold Democrats, making "con-
cessions" to them in the next fall CAM
paign, for the purpose of beating the
Republican ticket in this State. A better
move could not be made to insure Repub-
llcan party success. If the Chicago plat
form is not endorsed, but instead ICON.
cessions" are made to the boiling gold
Democrats, this fall, the Republicans will
have a walk-over again in this State.
The boiling gold democrats were the
main force that carried Maryland last
fall for Mckinley, and they will carry it
again for the gold party. The Demo
cratic party's only hope of success any
where, not alone in Maryland, is in its
being an active and aggressive silver
party. That turn in its political fortunes
was all that saved it, not merely from
defeat, but from utter destruction.
Concessions" to the gold boilers would
give them standing next year and they
would be the allies of the Republican
Sound" money party next year as they
were last. Whenever such a coalition as
is advocated by luke warm silver Demo
Gratis, with the gold boilers, is adopted, if
ever it is, the Peoples party will organize
aud hoist the silver flag in Maryland,
that had been lowered in submission to
the demands of the gold Democrats. If
Maryland is to be wrested from the gold
monopoly which has given the State such
humiliation as Wellington, it has got to
be by the party adhering to the Chicago
platform. That is the battle line of 1893,
and to place the strategic ground in pos
session of the enemy this fall, and expect
them to yield it next, is little less than
lunacy. 1t would strengthen their hands
for 1898, and certainly defeat the party
this fall and put another goldbug in the
U. S. Senate.
1t the New Democracy as organized last
fall ION the Chicago platform, does not
stand firmly and take an advanced step
there is no future for it. Let the boilers
make their own selection next fall, and
fall Ill line individually if they so desire,
but no formal Concessions must be
made where there is nothing to concede.
1t is silver and 10 to in future against
the British gold standard and a contin.

Gladstone is against the unhoiy Euro
pean alliance with the Turks. The
Grand Old Man says:
Russia, Germany and Austria are at
their old trade again as the foes ofliberty
and justice. France is tongue-tied by her
subserviency to the views of Russia. Italy
is paralyzed by internal embarrassments,
and England, which ought to be acting
under her own convictions, is content to
sit at the table with the three Emporers
and register their DEGREES.
"The guns of British ironclads have
been employed to shed the blood Of
Cretans who were struggling against
Turkish tyanny, and the blood of 100, 900
Christians has drenched the soil of Ar
menia without a penalty for the great
assassin who shed it or security against
his repeating the crime when he finds it
convenient. Ali this is execrated by the
people Of Great Britain"

The very latest as we'll as the most
gigantic scheme of the money lenders is
National Mortgage Corporation or Bank
with capital of 500, ooo, 600. The object
of this gigantic devil-fsh is to loan money
on mortgages running fifty years and
drawing per cent interest. These mort
cages are to be made redeenlable in in
stalments. The corporation will have a
provision in its charter that crops may be
mortgaged also.
This is an outline of the gigantic scheme
which is before Congress, or shortly to
apply to Congress for a charter. A
national concern to place under mortgage
all the land in the entire country if pos
sible; gigantic incorporated concern
whose stock would be on the exchanges
Of the country for spectators to gamble
i'll, while the devil.fsh was sucking the
blood of the entire agricultural popula-
ton, at per cent interest.
1t is appalling to contemplate the
almost countless millions that would be
blanketed in mortgages in every part of
the United States, and the results that
would follow when such a giant corpora
ton succeeded in placing its mortgages
on the farms of the country. Its political
power would far exceed that of the banks
and railroad companies, and last falls
Presidential campaign gave the people an
inkling ofthe coercive power they exerted
in the interest of monopoly and an aristo-
cratic system ofgovernment.
This giant scheme will hardly get
through Congress, but the attempt to
create such a monster shows that the
money loaning party are leaving no stone
unturned to load the people under noun
tains of debt from which they would be
utterly unable ever to escape
The gold standard is the corner stone of
all such monopoly schemes. The aim of
that financial system is, by establishing
the single gold standard money can be
made scarce when the cornerers of gold
choose to reduce the price of property. In
order to extricate themselves from the
tolls in which a sudden fall of prices en-
snares them, a mortgage would be
placed OH the farms, and in the course of
few years the mortgage octopus would
have large part of the real estate of the
country under its devouring tentacles.
The people are surrounded by myriads
of enemies, and new ones are constantly
coming out of the Pandora Box of the
gold standard.
This proposed mortgage corporation
has inserted clause i'll its charter ex-
empting its mortgages from taxation,
like government bonds. The brazen
impudence of these usurers is fairly
astounding.
This Credit Fonciar Mortgage Bank J
is of foreign origin. III France and Ger
many it fourishes and its dividends to
the company of money loaners are large
at three per cent. 1t is a blood sucker
from the veins of agriculture, and the
same vampire class, in addition to the
already numerous contrivances to exhaust
the surplus wealth created by the indus
trial class this additional Old World con-
trivance is sought to be fastened on the
toilers of this country.

Railroad Summer Ex-
cursion Route Book.
THE MOST COMPLETE PUBLICATION
OF IT'S KIND.

THE MOST COMPLETE PUBLICATION
OF IT'S KIND.
On June 1 the Passenger Depart
ment of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company issued the 1897 edition of
its Summer Excursion Route Book.
This work is designed to provide
the public with short descriptive
notes of the principal Summer re-
sorts of Eastern America, with the
routes for reaching them, and the
rates of fare. There are over four
hundred resorts in the book to
which rates are quoted, and over
fifteen hundred different routes or
combinations of routes. 1t is com
piled with the utmost care, and
altogether is the most complete and
comprehensive handbook of Summer
travel ever offered to the public.
Its 2l9 pages are inclOsed in a
handsome and striking cover, in
colors. Several maps, presenting
the exact routes over which tickets
are sold, and bound in the book.
1t is also profusely illustrated with
fine half-tone cuts of scenery along
the lines of the Pennsylvania Rail
road and elsewhere.
Any doubt as to where the
Summer should be passed will be
dispelled after a careful eXamina-
ton of the contents of this publica-
ton.
On and after June 1 it may be
procured at any Pennsylvania Rail
road ticket Office at the nominal
price of ten cents, or, upon applica-
ton to the general Office, Broad
Street Station, by mail for twenty
cents.

Havemeyer and Searles are both
cleared by the Court; the Judge
took their cases out of the .jury's
hands and said that the Senate
committee had no business to ask
such questions as the gentlemen
refused to answer. Anybody who
has watched closely the decision of
judges in corporation cases and that
of millionaires, anticipated the re-
suit. They have no business to
bride Congressman and then tell.
Possibly the people are watching
their liberties flying away, or being
spirited away.

An Effort to Circumvent Usurers
Which is Full of Hope.

One large fruit grower in California
saved his whole crop by using the check
system. He paid his laborers in checks,
and these checks circulated at par among
the merchants and grocers in the city
near them. They were redeemed by the
fruit grower in dried fruit, wine and vim
egar later on. In the meantime the
checks had passed as money, facilitating
a great many transactions that else could
not have been completed.
A society has been quite recently or
ganized called the Mutual Accumulative
Society, with purpose similar to the
above, but it has not had time to develop
its plan of working.
But the movement that is most wide
spread and is accomplishing the most
practical work is the Labor Exchange
Association. 1t seems to thrive in the
west much better and faster than i'll the
east. There are in operation throughout
az States of the Union upwards of 200
branches, with a membership of over
10 600. California is i'll the lead i'll the
work, Washington and Oregon pushing
it close and Colorado bringing up good
fourth. They have established canning
factories, tanneries, Touring mills, brick
Yards, sawmills, gardens aud fruit farms
that are in successful working order On
the Pacific coast they own and run q
steamer for the carrying of produce, and
another is being built A railroad /:
under consideration which will be started
within the year. The wealth already
created and the idle men put to work car
hardly be estimated. The Labor exchange
checks circulate as readily as money
wherever a good branch is established
In Denver some is or 20 stores outside the
branch will take exchange checks at par

had a marked effect upon prices,
but this natural and desired effect
