The Sentinel's Sarcasm ?

After quoting the plank in the Democratic
platform of the second congressional district
in reference to eecting $50 the House of Re-
representatives. gentlemen OF character and
capacity put under it in italic these words
"And then the convention nominated Mr..
Nicholas w. Steele
This was intended as crushing piece of
sarcasm, but it only exhibited the SentlneCs
want of knowledge of Mr.. Steele, of his char
acter and capacity, of his excellent business
reputation, of his sound judgment, of his
ability as public speaker, Of his practical
knowledge of tariff and taxation, and called
up a comparison with one whom rumor cred
its with congressional aspirations. And in
the comparison Mr. Steele did not suffer,
either.
The Baltimore american is good Repubi
can authority, and is thoroughly versed as to
the qualifications of the present Congressman
from this state, and as to their congressional
records Here is what it said of them IN It's
issue of August 18th, last:
1--WE find on all sides much regret and dissatisiac
ton among the people of Maryland over the dele
CATION that has been representing 1t IN the house
of Representatives. Maryland has always Deeh
fortunate in having one or more strong men in the
lower house. and in participating in the important
proceedings of the body. Our present congressman
have served during eventful times, when the OPP
portnnities for craftsmanship were frequent, and
vet not one of the six made single speech tina
amounted to much in the current interest OF the
dav All combined did nothing of any especia
value to the state The highest praise that can Dc
given to them is that there were no scandals aho
they voted the right way.
This, at best, is negative, and Maryland wants
positive delegation"
The Hon. Thomas B. Reed, Speaker OF the
House, is also good Republican authority,
and few months ago he observed that the
Maryland delegation consists of "a Id ras

What Is the Reason.

The United States is to send an army OF
occupation to Cuba of between $4,000 and
$1,000 men. The troops are to occupy the
points evacuated by Spanish soldiers. The
object of the war, so it was said, was to drive
the Spanish out of Cuba. The evacuation is
soon to commence and will be completed by
February Why this government should send
another army to Cuba is not stated, especially
one more than twice as large as the one sent
to drive out the Spanish. Perhaps it is for
the purpose of spending the money raised by
the war tax law, in order that favorite con
tractors may still continue to thrive and help
out the Republican campaign funds.
An army is TO be sent to Porto Rico and to
Hawaii also, and more troops to the Philip
mines
