The tendency of the wheat market during
the past week has been in the direction of an
advarce. The opening on Monday was char
acterized by the uncertainty which has ex-
listed during the past four or five weeks as to
the condition of the crop, and the cable quo
tations did mot afferd much in the way of
encouragement towards higher prices. The
closing on Saturday showed a striking degree
of weakness, cash wheat falling precipitately
cents per bushel. This incident was due to
the reported consignment OF large shipments
Of the new crop of the Northwest to milling
points.

prices at closing of the September option last
Saturday with the figures of the week before

GUBERyAToRI4L TIMER.

Although the election of Governor
is a good wa5s off, yet the Democrats
realizing their excellent opportunity
for regaining control of the State
government are commencing TO cast
their eyes about for a gubernatorial
candidate. Ii seems to be conceded
that it must be a county man, as Bal
timore city never has been very sue,
cessful in furnishing good material.
1t has been strongly argued that as
the Eastern Shore was robbed by the
Republican party of its birthright OF
a United States Senator, that the
nominee should come from that sec
ton of the State.
Should this be conceded, we know
of nc one who is more acceptable than
Hon. John S. Writ, of Cecil county.
He is young man, brainy and elo-
quent, vino has already seen much
public service, bu5 like few of our
politicians came out nc. richer than he
went in except what he gained in the
estimation of his fellow citizens for
his fearless, open, honest course.
We do not know that Mr.. Writ will
be a candidate, but we do know that
if he is nominated he will be elected
by a handsome majority and Mary
land will have in the Executive Man
sion one of the best Governors she has
ever had.

4 srUBEoRN FIGHT hADLD.

On Wednesday the board Of direc-
tors of the aiar. laid feni;entidry
elected John T. WeyIer, the present
incumbent, warden. This has been
one of the most stubborn fights the
ReDublicaEs have had since they
gained control OF the State. The
principal opponent of Mr.. Wey Ter was
Ex-Sheriff Houck, OF Allegheny coun-
tv, a personal friend of Governor
Iowudes. The only objection to Mr..
VIEWER was that he was a Democrat.
His enemies conceded that he Was a
most excellent official and had brought
the Pen:tentiary from state OF chaos
to one of the best institutions III the
country. When he took charge eight
years ago, it was heavy tax on the
State and last year it not only paid
its own expenses but turned over
SCI, 900 to the treasury after saving
about So, 600 for its inmates.
Notwithstanding this excellent
showing the Governor made up his
mind that Mr.. Weyler should vacate
and Mr.. Houck step in, and in ap-
pointing the two Republican directors
supposed they would do his bidding.
He however found his error when
Mr.. James Lee who was one OF the
newly appointed directors was
preached ON the subject. MIR. Lee, as
any one who knows him will say, has
a way of thinking for himself and also
investigating TO his own satisfaction
any matter i'll which he he is interest,
ed. After full survey of the situa'
ton Mr.. Lee would not consent to Mr..
Weyler's removal, being satisfied that
politics is only secondary consldera-
ton in the management OF an I'M
mense business affair like the Penlten'
tiary is. Pressure of every kind was
brought to bear in every imaginable
shape, even to threats of removal, but
all without avail, and Mr.. Weyier il
again warden.
The people of Hartford county feel
yerv proud OF the decided stand taken
byone OF her best citizens and are more
than ever convinced that Mr.. Lees
broad minded action i'll this matter
shows him to be above petty politics.
This article coming as it does from
a Democratic paper Aay sound
strange, but it always has been and
will be the policy of The -EJis to
recognize true worth and character,
regardless OF party ties.
