Tho Chinese Oil Tree

In recent report Of the United States
consul general ut Shanghai there is an
interesting description of the tung, or
Chinese oil tree. This useful tree grows
to II height of about 10 feet and is Of
beautiful appearance, its leaves Being
vivid green and its flowers pink white.
The seeds are poisonous. and it is from
them that the oil is extracted in the
most primitive fashion by wooden
presses worked with wedges The oil
thus obtained is largely used all over
the country i'll the manufacture of paint
and varnish, for waterprooting paper
and umbrellas, and i'll some districts for
illuminating purposes. But its chief
uso is for calking boats. On the sub
merged parts of vessels it is applied
hot, but on other parts it is painted on
Ill thin coats quite cold. All Chinese
boats arc thus oiled twice Il month, and
SO arc made to assume II glossy appear.
ancc, while the wood is greatly prcserv-
ell Like most other commodities, this
tree oil is often adulterated before il is
sold by enthusiastically with cotton
seed oil.-Chambcrs' journal.

Republican Primaries.

Republican primaries in some counties OF
the fifth and sixth congressional districts were
but little better than free fights and bribery.
In Montgomery and Frederick was this par
ticularly true and in Prince Georges and
Charles they were far from being Sunday
school affairs.
OF the Montgomery primaries the Rock
Vile Advocate said:
There was no corrupt practice known to MOD
ern politics which was not employed by inc
managers of one or the other or both OF the
factions. "Speak easies" were subsidized
voters purchased, ballot boxes stuffed, negro
conv;cts imported, men intimidated as they
came to the polls. In Rockville district
where the Mcdonald management had the
assistance of the Independent Democratic
leaders and the protection OF the CLOAK
of political reform as professionally worn,
there was no art, subtertuge, measure OF
means, no matter how corrupt, mat was
not employed to accomplish the result.
OF the Frederick primaries dispatch to
the Baltimore Sun said
.'The Frederick city primary was held Ill
the Opera House. Heelers were placed al
the entrance to guide the voters. those lor
Haffner to go to the right, those for the regn :
lars to the left. A great many heutenants
undertook this part of the business, and 1t
gave rise to much quarreling and fist fighting.
Negro voters, who hestated to declare them =,
selves, were made subjects OF regular tug OF
war between the rival heelers. Some negroes,
who had promised to both sides IN advance
had their clothes torn off Ill the struggle
Finally as many as forty men became en-;
tangled in the struggle for voters and had
their hats smashed, collars torn off, faces
scratched and clothing torn. Five policemen
were on hand and they had a hard time to
stop the pulling and hauling.

The Next House.

Representative Babcock, Of Wisconsin,
says tie Philadelphia Evening Telegraph, the
chairman of the Republican congressional
committee, has taken up his residence i'll
Washington for the fall campaign, after famil-
iarizing himself with the situation throughout
the country by actual contact with the people.
AS the result of his observations, Mr.. Bah
cock expresses the opinion that it will be a
difficult matter for the Republicans to secure
good working majority in the lower house
Of the next Congress. The loss of seats by
the Republicans will be sustained chiefly in
the eastern section of the country, and will
be caused by dissatisfaction over the distrbu-
ton of patronage and complications arising
from local issues. la New York and Penn
sylvania especially Mr.. Babcock looks for
Republican losses, which can only be COM
pensated for by gains in the far Western
States.
As to the situation in this State and the
prospective result of the November election,
Mr.. Babcock is we'll advised when he antici-
pates the loss of more than one Republican
member. The present delegation consists Of
twenty-seven Republicans and three Demo
Gratis, and no such disproportionate represen-
tation of the people of the State in the next
Congress can be looked for. The enormous
plurality Of about 800, 900 which was given to
Mckinley and the congressional ticket at
large two years ago has been frittered away
by the high-handed tyranny and shameless
corruption of the Quay machine, and, more
than one seat in Congress will be sacrificed
in November as the direct result.

PIatt and Roosevelt.

Senator Platt does not want Teddy Roose-
welt nominated for Governor, but 1t begins to
look like the Republican party OF New York
does. Black, the present Governor, wants a
denomination, and would probably have OBJ
tanned it had not Col Roosevelt,S short mill
tary service created Juror Of admiration
for him in some sections. Black would have
been defeated by the Democrats, and this
many Republicans believed, and they seized
upon Col Roosevelt as IL candidate and his
war record is expected to carry him through.
Roosevelt is not popular with the organiza-
ton politicians, as he is civil service re-
former. and from their standpoint he would
do the party harm as Governor and would
disorganize it Just as Mr. Cleveland by too
much civil service disheartened the Demo
cratic party in 1888 and was defeated for
reelection.
If Col. Roosevelt's boom continues to grow,
Senator Plat will have to let him be noml-
mated, and then the question with Plat will
be whether it would not be better for him
and his machine to let the hero of the Rough
Riders be defeated

A Slight Error.

The editor of the Sentinel was prominent
figure in the I'd district congressional conven-
lion on Thursday. He reported the resou-
tons and seconded the nomination of Baker.
He is reported to have said that Carroll will
have a candidate two years hence, and that
the county had been in the second congress
sional district ffty-two years and no candi-
date for Congress had been nominated from
the county in opposition to the Democrats.
Without going further back we would remind
the iSentinerS editor that in 1870 Carroll was
in the Western district, that the late Judge
Smith was the Republican nominee that
year, and was defeated by the late Judge
Richie, of Frederick. Again, the county
was in that district when the late Patrick
Hamill Democrat, of Allegany, was elected
to Congress.
Still the errors of the editor of the Sentinel
are slight, and can be be accounted for by his
zeal in the interest of some great unknown
whom he will run for Congress two years
