THE GEARS PROPOSAL.

II seems certain that nothing will come
lof the Czar's proposal for a general dIsarm.
ament in Europe, unless 1t be the slow
working Of good influence upon the con.
trolling spirit Of the European govern.
ments.
The high officials Of the powers who
have said anything on the subject, as rule
praise the Cars motives and express the
hope that there will be no more war, but
here IL no indication that their govern
nenis intend TO take part 10 the proposed
peace conference. The King OF Sweden
md Norway Is the most important ruler,
We believe. who has accepted the Czar's In
iiAtion. The impracticability OF this be.

The Republican convention of the sixth
congressional district met in Frederick city
on Wednesday. Colonel John r. Rouzer,
of Frederick county, presided. A contest
over the temporary organization took place
between the Gould and Mcdonald delegates
from this county, which was decided IN
favor of Gould by the convention. The
committee on credentials decided against
the admission Of Mcdonald delegates. Each
county presented a candidate and voted sol.
idly for him during 27i ballots No choice
having been made the convention adjourned
until Thursday morning at 10 O'Clock.

by the declaration Of leading French news
papers and public men that the restoration
Of Alsace and Lorraine TO France must be
condition precedent TO general tfoaty Of
peace. This sort Of talk is silly, even for
Paris. If the Gar really expected his plan
to succeed he is ahead Of his time, he has
overestimated the other rulers of Europe.
Bot the apparent sincerity with which he
has proposed noble scheme has won fol-
him high place in the estimation Of the
world, and may place him in history as a
great pioneer in the higher civilization for
which all good men hope, a civilization in
which the nations will find nobler way OF
settling their differences than by slaughter
and destruction.

LNDIOA TTONs MORE HOPEFUL

LNDICA1I TONS MORE HOPEFUL.
The Democrats have not been bold nor
loud In their claims for the congressional
election, which lie near at hand, but the indi-
cations have recently become more hopeful
for them, aud there are many shrewd oh.
servers who now believe that the chances
Of the two great parties for the control Of
the next House Of Representatives are about
even.
II is evident that Chairman Babcock, Of
the Republican Congressional Committee, Is
alarmed. He has issued an address 70 his
party, In which he says that local quarres
are beclouding the Republican prospects in
many districts, and he warns the Republic
can factions that the party will be defeated
u they keep up their work.
Chairman Babcock 10 afraid that his party
Is relying 700 largely upon the successful
result of the war, and that this overconh.
dence has made possible quarrels among
Republicans In all sections and In nearly
every STATE.
II would not require such great change
,o,r-n the House VI Representatives over to
The Democrats as h generally supposed
The Republicans have only about sixty
nsioslsy IL that body and there are more
than s,Hty Rapu5llcs members whose plu.
r-...y al the last election was less than one
thousand. II will therefore be seen that q
change Of only few thousand votes would
give the Democrats majority In the House.
The party In power nearly always has a
hard time with the intermediate congress
sional elections. These elections are con.
sidered excellent opportunities for rebukes
to the administration. They are favorable
occasions for the expression Of grievance.
Within the past twenty years we have
seen some remarkable political reverses two
years alter sweeping victories, and we may
witness another such event next November.
