Regarding the escape of Miss Cisneros
ana her reported arrival in New York yes
terday on the Seneca the New York Tribune
of this morning says:
There was another story as to Miss Cis-
neros' escape from Cuba in circulation yes
terday, which found many believers and
was backed by statements from several
responsible officials. A man who said he
knew, and who was in position to know
all the details of the girls escape to this
country. informed the Tribune reporter
that she actually arrived here on the
steamer Concho on Monday. The young
woman who arrived here yesterday, he
said. had been brought on from Havana by
the Journal to deceive the Spanish officials
as to the real method of Miss Cisneros es-
cape. II once the Spanish officials learned
how the girl left Havana, this man said
they would know who had helped her away
and would speedily have them under lock
and key.
Many apparently unexplained facts-nota-
bly, the ease with which the young Cuban
woman who arrived on the Seneca yester-
day passed the Spanish officials-support
the statement. that she is not Miss Cisneros,
and that the escaped prisoner had been in
a hotel here for several days. as this man
insisted. A prominent supporter OF the Gu
ban cause. 1t should he said. made SUBJ

Old Time Democracy.

Col. JENNIFER, the Chairman of
the Baltimore County Democratic Cen
trail Committee, extends cordial well
come to all Democrats in his county to
take part in their next primary meet
ings. We are sure the same cordial in
vitation will be extended to Demo-
Gratis all along the line. Col. Jennifer
stated in this connection, that all who
participate in such primaries and
in county conventions should be hon
orable enough to abide by the decision
of the majority of their party This
is true Democracy from a real Jeffer-
sonian standpoint The right of the
majority to rule has always been one of
the cardinal doctrines of the party.
This theory has beenshamefully tramp
led in the dust and it is now time for
us to turn back to those old teachings
and have them instilled into the
minds and hearts of the people. What
better time to start than in the great
campaign about to open in our State.
All Democrats have been again invited
to join hands, gold men and silver men,
regulars and independents, all working
for common end, the redemption of
our State. Surely all Democrats should
be able to unite on this platform.

DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
Plan of Campaign as Outlined by
Silver Leader in Washington
County.

Mr.. 7. A. Poffenberger, a leader of
the silver Democrats in Washington
County, in an interview recently, out
lines bis plan for harmony and recog-
milton of the gold Democrats as follows:
I'VE who voted for Bryan last fall
have no apologies to make. Neither
have we to apologize for any wrong
doing in 1895. We have always been
for our party and have believed in its
undying principle-gOvernment by the
majority. As to the gold Democrats,
l would suggest: Let all who have
previously been Democrats vote at the
coming primaries, no questions to be
asked. If gold Democrats should be
selected as delegates to the convention,
give them fair and patient hearing,
exactiug but one pledge, that they
abide by the result. If the county COZ
vention refuses to indorse the Chicago
platform | am willing to abide by its
decision. If it affirms it, either in
whole or in part, all we can ask is that
the minority support the ticket.
when we get to the German ques-
ton it will be time enough to solve it..
Let US nominate good men to the Leg
lslature, elect them and trust to their
discretion and judgment when the
time comes for the election of United
States Senator. If, after having done
this, Democratic Legislature should
decide that Mr.. German must again
90 to the Senate, | am satisfied.
shall think they have at least attempt
ed to do right if they decide that he
should stay at home. 1t is really non
sense to talk of the bossism of German
in view of the example of Mr.. yelling
ton. Beside the bossism of Mr.. We'll
lingtoD, the bossism of German falls
into insignificance The election of a
Republican Legislature means that
there will be two Wellingtons in the
Senate from Maryland, two Senators
from this State to vote against free Gu
ba and in favor of foreign immigra-
tion-Wellington and Lowndes.

Army Officers Who Ride With the
President.

A Washington, d. c., dispatch says:
President Mckinley has an army es-
cort when he takes his horseback rides
in the afternoons on the outskirts of
the city. The escort was not ordered
out to protect the PRECEDENT from posi-
bic danger, but goes along upon invi-
tation, because the President likes
company and the escort likes to be
with him. 1t consists only of two Of
ficers, Captain Michler, of General
Miles staff, and Surgeon Wood, the
attending physician to the officers sta
toned in Washington unattached to
barracks. Captain Michler is one of
the youngest officers of his rank in the
service, and Surgeon Wood is one of
the best athletes in the service aud has
accompanied General Miles on many
hunting trips in the far west. The
President rides big dark bay and the
officers small sorrels. Mcclellan sad
dies of the approved army pattern are
used by the officers, but the President
sits on fiat English saddle with short
stlrrups. He wears the regulation
boots and spurs and carries the "duden
riding stick, which is said to be useful
in opening gates, but of little account
as whip.
Captain Michler accompanied Cen
eral Miles to Frederick during the last
State Encampment and made host
of friends.

Wanamaker the Pessimist.

The non-partizan utterances of En-
Postmaster General Wanamaker have
created marked uneasiness in the ranks
of the Republican party, so much 50 as
to cause President Mckinley to refer to
him as a "Pessimist' in a recent speech
at the Philadelphia Museum; not by
name but by marked inference, which
could not be mistaken by those who
heard him. Mr.. Wanamaker does not
attempt to deny or mitigate one iota
the full meaning of his words, but he
gracefully evades the direct shaft of
the Presidents sarcasm, and in so do
ing turns the tables on the Executive.
The great merchant only speaks the
mind of thousands of Others in this
brofd land to-day. He does not stand
back from mere party pretense and fear
of the truth, but talks plainly and
sticks to what he says. In his posi-
ton as business man he sees the grave
dangers meDacing the country and
finds no refuge behind new tarifflaw.
Prosperity has not come a. promised
and he criticises the action of those
who fail to keep their anti-election OBJ
legations. He comes in for little hit
on the financial question when he says:
"Let authority be given at once for
monetary commission to determine
aChot the United States Waat not
what is demanded by other nationsn
and then go after it and get it as
promptly as possible. Delegations to
foreign nations without definite prop
osition are like ships at sea without a
sail. That is what Mr.. Bryan said and
argued, but he was hooted at as an an
archist. Now one of the grand chiefs
on the other side says substantially
that the United States should act alone
on the money question, and that at
once. Is this anarchy?
