SCHROEDER STICKS TO 1T.
Repeats His Charges ms to ImmOraIi-
~ i'm the City Exchange.

Chairman Kafow of the police commits
sion received a communication yesterday
addressed to him by Acting Mayor Ow-
ems, calling his attention to the statements
made by Policeman Schroeder before the
fire commission to the effect that the city
exchange had been resorted to for i'm
moral purposes and requesting an investi-
cation of the same by the police commits
sion.
A meeting of the commission was held
to pass upon other matters. Chairman
Karow laid the letter of the acting mayor
before the meeting and Policeman Schro-
der was called in. He reported before the
commissioners substantially the same
statement made by him before the fire
commission. The matter was referred to
Chief McDermott with instructions to have
thorough Investigation Of Schroeder
statements made by the detectives to the
end that they may either be disproved
or the guilty parties IF any, discovered.

The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1897-11-05

The CITIZEN accepts defeat in this
county as philosophically as possible
under the circumstances. We have eX-
perienced it many times before but UNI
der conditions that rendered it less
lamentable and distastefuI. Defeat at
any time is not a relish, but when it
comes through channels where conf
dence overlooked snares and pitfalls;
where mines could not be met by coun-
ter-mines, and where silent, but pow
erful influences that were looked upon
as agents in our favor operated in di-
rect opposition, then the defeat of our
candidates is doubly unfortunate.
When it comes to stand-up fight in
the open, no fear or favor being shown
by either side, and to the best fighters
belong the victory, the Democracy of
Frederick County has always given II
good account of herself in the past, but
no earthly power can save the party
from continued destruction as long as
the present state of things prevail. We
do not intend to describe causes-they
are manifold-personal, private, public
and peculiar. The main crime against
us this time was disloyalty. 1t Xas
the most unkind cut of all, and one
that was unfair and unnatural. Words
cannot describe the measure of it,
neither can they our condemnation.
Our position as advocating a united
support of the nominees of the party
is too well known to discuss, and it is
but natural that we strongly deprecate
the many departures from that prin-
ciple that Democrats made on election
day. The CITIZEN always has
and always will support the nom
inees of the party, believing that
therein lies the only chance'of success.
Things are sure to come to level
again, but how long before we can again
tlaunt the banner of victory to the
breeze in this county only time can
tell We will, more heartily than
ever, espouse and battle for the cause
of Democracy, not doubling that the
mistakes of 1S95-6-7 will be gloriously
rectified by a united party in the name
of jefferson and for the common peo-
pie of this noble State and county.

THE Herald says that the Maryland
Legislature will be Republican by Z
on joint ballot. The question of which
party will organize the House is still
in doubt. The vote for Delegates in
the State, however it may result,
shows that much of the feeling of 1895
has subsidized and that the main fight
of the opponents of Senator German
against the Legislature was not by any
means as strong as two years ago.
Much of the feeling against him had
passed over owing TO the violence and
Inconsistency of his traducers aud the
counties stood by him well. Whether
or not he returns to the Senate, we feel
sure that no one can occupy ms posi-
ton with more ability or assiduous en-
deavors for the benefit of his consIitu-
eucy. In the hour of possible defeat
Mr.. German never appeared to greater
advantage. His record refutes his en-
emies at every po.nt and the great
fight was made against him 10y
personal dlsappOintees and those who
were jealous of him, and not because
he neglected the commercial or indus
trial welfare of the State in the Nat
ional Congress. Maryland may miss
his powerful influence in her behalf.

Emmitsburg's Obstruction to a
Free Ballot.

The Judges of Election for Emmits-
burg District were Andrew A. Amman
and Harvey NJ Maxwell for the Re-
publicans, with a. V. Keepers and J.
G. Rosensteel for the Democrats. Ow-
ing to the obstruction policy pursued
by Mr. Amman, voters were kept wait
ing for their turn to vote for from five
to fifteen minutes, although there was
provision made in the room for eight
voters, as there were eight booths
erected. One man could take ten min
utes or fifteen minutes to fix his ticket.
Protests from both parties We're made,
but Mr. Amman declined to yield until
the excitement grew SO intense that
the crowd threatened to take posses
sion of the polls; then a change was
made Mr.. Maxwell, the Republican
Judge, left Mr.. Amman and voted with
the two Democratic Judges for a
change in the system of voting.
Judge McSherry was telegraphed to, as
well as States Attorney Kinks, and
the supervisors. At about four o'clock
the change was made, but many in
the meantime had become disguised
and some Democrats left unwisely
and refused to vote. The voting con-
tinued after the legal hour and after
seven o'clock the last ballot was re-
ceived, one hour after the legal time
for voting. Both Democratic Judges
voted against keeping the polls open
after the legal hour, and the two Re
publican Judges voted to continue the
voting. This is an old dodge. 1t was
practiced in districts in Ohio where
there were large Democratic majorities;
the voter was kept waiting by saying
that they could not find his name, or
took lots of time to vote, until the
window would be closed upon hun
dreds of voters who had thus been de-
prived of their franchise. SO in Fred
erick we find that all kinds of means
were resorted to in order to elect GER
tain men to office. If the people en-
dorse such measures, no one has right
to complain. What will be their ver-
dict? Ninety-siX voters did not vote
in Emmitsburg District. What a
record! If this had been done by Dem
ocrats, what howl of condemnation
would have been heard.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1897-11-05

THINK of the man who was sent to
the Democratic County Convention
and helping to make the entire ticket,
then to deliberately go and vote against
the very men he helped to nominate.
Think of the man prsting about his
being a silver man interested in the
success of Bryan, and then for the sake
of little cheap notoriety speaking
against the very man the gold people
were seeking to destroy because he
was a silver man. Did any one ever
near of such inconsistency? Should
such people be fully recognized by
Democrats?
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1897-11-05
THE BATTLE OVER /!
Democrats Help Motter.

Seldom has the Democratic party
gone iuto a contest so handicapped as
they did in the pres mt campaign.
Members of the County Central Com
mittee openly violated the confidence
which from necessity must be entrust-
ed to such representatives. Men who
were delegates to conventions trampled
down all obligations, which are sup
posed to be vested in those who as
semhle to select representatives for
their party. Those who had received
favors at the hauds of their party were
open in opposition to one or more of
the Democratic nominees. Many old
leaders demoralized their forces by
giving quiet recognition to those who
spoke of cutting their tickets. 1t was
impossible to infuse confidence into
the rank and file, whilst whispers of
assertions of former leaders were cir
culated in all parts OF the county. So
the battle opened, so il continued, and
so it ended. No on can blame Mr.
Motter for utilizing these forces, even
if he did laugh in his sleeves at the
credulity of trusting men. There were,
however, thousands of true and tried
soldiers whe never faltered; they did
their duty like men, they upheld the
nominees of their party and deserve
the thanks of the organization. Time
may heal the bitter feelings which
were generally felt at the betrayal of
men so worthy of the support of all
Democrats in Frederick County.
The citizen. (Frederick City, Md.) 1895-1923, 1897-11-05

he saw fit to impose upon the voters
of that district, hundreds were denied
the right to cast their ballots, and but
for wise and cool heads a riot would
have been precipitated by disguised
and indigngnt persons on the outside.
A voter was compelled to go through
the whole procedure of voting singly,
lis name being checked twice and his
name on the books referred to twice.
This entails loss OF time that could
not be justified. Nearly hundred
votes in that district were not depOs-
tied. A petition to the supervisors has
been gotten up asking them to throw
out the vote of the district as illegal.
Mr.. John II. Grove, Democratic candi'
date for sheriff, was the petitioner
Since writing the above, Messrs.
Rohrback and WortbingtOu appeared
Leiore the supervisors with petition
asking that the vote of Emnitsburg
district be thrown out. After consul
tation the supervisors decided that as
the vote was clearly in violation OF the
election law, the count should not be
recorded IN the official returns.
POLITICAL NOTES.
The Democrats can beat the world
cutting tickets.
The slate already made out. Nor
sci and Harry for assistant clerks.
Democrats get II Of the % counties
aud elect a part of their ticket in sew
eral others.
Motler with all the efforts made in
his behalf only ran 200 votes ahead of
thu Republican state ticket.
The constitutional amendment pro-
viding for a civii-service system in
State appointments was voted down
overwhelmingly.
Mr. Harry Chapine feels quite proud
of the tlattering vote he received for the
Legislature, and well he might.
Political representations will be at a
discount hereafter never talk to us
about indications or Republicans cut
ting their tickets.
Republican judges are elected in the
Sixth and Seventh Judicial districts,
while il the Second all three Demo-
Gratis were elected, Judge Russum be-
ing defeated.
As the returns are still incomplete it
is impossible to give the Republican
majority for Comptroller and Clerk of
the Court of Appeals, but it will not
fall short of 5 600.
The next State Senate will be COM
posed of about Is Republicans and s
Democrats. This is what returns in
dictate up to Thursday noon.

of such bare-faced job?

Tuesday last was an exceptionally
quiet day in Frederick, that is, quiet
for an election day on which was to be
decided the fate Of many a candidate
for county, legislative and judicial Of
ficers.
This is practically speaking an off
year in political parlance, yet the bat
tie ground of Frederick County has
just witnessed struggle for suprem-
acy that will linger in memory's train
for decades to come.
1t was a little disappointment for
the tried and true Democracy of Fred
erick County, who always stick to their
guns no matter what betides. For
Others who were open in their advoca =
cy of certain candidates on the oppo-
site ticket the result must have been
in the nature of a victory.
The Republicans have not enthused
over the result of the election in pro-
portion to the greatness of their sue
cess in this county, and up until We'd
needay morning they were on the aux
ious bench and did not know positive
ly which way the tide was flowing.
Returns came in slow and unsatisfac-
tory, Woodville, Brunswick and EN-
mitsburg being only received late on
nesday afternoon.
The Republicans elect their entire
State and county ticket in the county.
John G. Motter, Associate Judge
of the Circuit Court; Douglass

son, Sheriff; Geo. l.. Kaufman, Treas

E. Elmer Harne, J. Frank Butts and

gates; and Edward Albaugh, County
lOui NCJOi' L HcSS CduuludIeS were
elected by majorities ranging from 800
to 974, the latter being official for
Mr.. Motter. With Emmitsburg thrown
out for Illegal voting after the prescrb-
ed hour for polling votes-six o'clock
and with Montgomery County's vote
of 1877 for Keedy off, his majority will
be about 500 In all the districts more
cut ballots were noticed than for many
years. Motter got the cut, but this
little deficiency was made more than
good by his Democratic friends. A
review of the votes of the districts will
show this.
The voting in Frederick was orderly
and was proceeded with in good order.
The poll on Patrick street opposite the
City Hotel was crowded all day long
with horde of negroes, who made
some confusion and disorder which
was not promptly rectiiied by the dep
uty as was warranted. Several Re
publcans were disguised by this state of
affairs. In Emmitsburg a very
peculiar and unprecedented state of
things prevailed. Mr.. Amman, the Re-
publican Judge, defeating to himself
the honor and privilege of constituting
the law, viewed it so strictly that
