Charlie Owens, the Cubano coffee
king, is here today. At one time,
Charlie was a hotel proprietor, and
thought he was up to snuff in the
hotel business, but in his rambes
over Texas, trying to sell his
parched coffee, ran upon an inn,
over the door which had a sign
telling the wayfaring man that it
was the Initial" house. Mr..
Owens gives a graphic account of
how things were run at this house,
he said; when ! took my seat at
the table, a young lady came to
me and said: B. M, G. II, E. He
asked her to explain and she in
formed him that to save time, they
had adopted the initial system, for
instance, Il stood for bread, c for
chicken, IL for hash and h for eggs,
Ot course this staggered Charlie,
but lie put in an initial order The
young lady after delivering the
tray said G N Y W, and here, Char.
lie was dumbfounded again, aud
asked her to explain and she said,
= for coffee, NJ for milk, T tor tea,
aud w for water The balance of
the narrative we withhold, but If
you want to hear how Charlie got
out Of the Initial house and when
he expects to return, look him up
and get the story, 1t is rich and
full of tuu.

THANKS TO SENATOR COX
MAN AND REPRESE\A-
TIVE MCINTYRE.

The board of directors Of the Chamber
of Commerce, Baltimore. at its monthly
meeting Monday, adopted the following:
"WhcreaS, \ numcrouSiy- gned petit
ton from the members of the Baltimore
Chamber of Commerce has been address
to the board Of directors, requesting Off
cal expression of the general apprecia-
ton of this association for the services
rendered by Hon. A. p. German in the
Senate, and Hon William W. McIntirc
in the House of Representatives in secur-
ing the necessary legislation for the con-
tinucd Improvement of the channel ap-
preaching Baltimore, and also for the
erection of a new customhouse in this city;
and,
"Whereas, The enlargement of the chan
mel in width and depth is a necessary
national improvement, inasmuch as 1t
adapts one of natures greatest highways
to the ocean to navigation by vessels of
modern dimensions, and the construction
of suitable custom buildings in this city,
arranged for proper despatch of business,
contributes to the advantage and con-
venience of the large territory of which
Baltimore is the natural port of entry;
and,
"Whercas. The appropriations by Con-
gress for these important Improvements,
the benefits of which, although extending
beyond Maryland, are of immense impor-
lance to our city and state, were obtained
only through the intelligent, earnest and
assiduous efforts Of Hon. A. P. German
and Hon William W. McIntire, continu-
ed up to the very close of the session of
Congress; therefore, be it
"Resoved, That the board of directors
of the Baltimore Chamber of Commerce
cheerfully accede to the request Of the
members of this chamber, endorse their
sentiments, and tender Hon. A. P. German
and Hon William W. McIntirc sincere
thanks, and express full appreciation for
their eminent services, remarkable skill
legislation that will greatly tend to main
tain the position of the port Baltimore,
and materially advance its commercial
and mercantile interests, also add much
to the pride and welfare of our city and
state;
"Resolved, That, in addition to these
resolutions being spread upon the records
of this chamber, engrossed copies shall be
sent to Hon. A. p German and Hon
William w McIntire."

TRUSTS AND THE TARIFF,

A correspondent, says the Baltimore
Sun, expresses the mistaken belief
that the repeal of the high tariff, under
which our trusts flourish, would be fol-
lowed by the organization of intel
national trusts. 1t would be a matter
of 4 few days, lie thinks, to organize
an Anglo-American paper trust, for
example, and SO put up prices in both
England and America. But this is
impossible, in view of the readiness of
the paper makers of the Continent to
supply England and America with
paper at the prices now prevailing in
England. The TACT that there are no
trusts now in England in the American
sense, is proof that they cannot exist
there, owing to the freedom of foreign
competition. They do exist, it is said,
in Germany and other protected"
markets of the Continent If, as is
suggested, the English could form
trusts with Americans. with or without
reduction of our tariff, why do they
not form trusts with the Germans
The non-eXistence of such combinations
to advance prices seems to prove that
free trade is fatal to them in England.
1t is conceivable that all the manu-
facturcrs in a given line of goods in al!
the countries Of the world should or
ganize trust. Should they do so, the
effect would be, of course, to close all
the factories of the countries except
where this line of goods can be made
at the lowest wage cost. As wages
are lower in England than here. the
American factories in the imagined
worldwide combine would be closed.
But wages are lower in Germany than
in England, and lower in France than
in Germany. If the French factories
were found to produce at least cost. the
trust would operate only i'll the French
factories, and the entire industry
would be transferred to that country.
But all such monster world wide
schemes are impracticable, so that free
trade is, in fact, a remedy and the only
sure remedy for trust prices. There
are temporary combinations Of en-
ployes in England to fight the comb
nations Of the trade unions. but they
are not trusts and they do not under
take to fix prices. There are also
there, as elsewhere, consultations of
business houses at times, but they are
Ineffective for raising prices in the face
of the free competition of the CONT
mental manufacturers.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WASHINGTON. d. c.. March 18th

WASHINGTON. D. c.. March 14th
Mr.. EDIToR:-Mr. Mckinley hasn't
gone to brownsville, Ga, where he will
be the guest of Boss Hanna for several
weeks, solely to get rest and recreation.
Not by a jugful there is political schem-
ing, and lot of it, in the trip: While
they are in Thomasville the leading adj
ministration Senators and Representatives
will visit them, and in addition to clinch-
ing Mr.. Mckinley's denomination next
year, the question of whether the admin
istration will try to prevent Car Reeds
reelection as Speaker of the House, will
be carefully gone over and decided. If it
were only question of inclination, it
might be considered as already decided.
Mr.. Mckinley and a number of his closest
friends are sore on Reed because of his
attitude towards all of the administration
measures that came before the late Con-
gress, and would gladly antagonize his re,
election as Speaker, if they thought they
could beat him, but there's the rub They
are afraid to fight Reed, unless they are
reasonably certain Of being able to control
enough votes to down him, because, if
they do so and fail, they know he would
fight back during the life of the Fifty sixth
Congress, which will be as long as that of
the administration.
Democrats will be glad if the republican
party will endorse the claim of Represen
tative Cannon, of Illinois, one of Gar
Reeds most obedicnt henchmen, that real
Nicaragua Canal legislation, which has
been commended by National Conyen-
tions, regardless of party, was purposely
prevented at the recent session of Con-
gress by the Republican House. The
blame for the failure of that legislation
had been placed upon Reed, but when Mr..
Cannon says: "Fortunately, the House of
Representatives resisted the enactment of
the proposed legislation" in his labored
commentator of republican accomplish

BRIBERY AT ELECTIONS.

Mr.. A. G. Darcy. of Westphalia,
writes timely article to the "Gazette,"
this week, against bribery in elections.
1t is one of the growing evils of the
day, not only poisoning the minds and
morals of the PEOPLE, but tending to
undermine the foundations of popular
government. Mr.. Darcy has figured
in politics in this county himself and
knows whereof he speaks. Referring
to bribery at the general elections and
at the primary elections. he says: ''this
thing has grown to such proportions
that it has become absolutely necessary
to call 4 halt along the lines. or. if not
all civil administration and legislation
will be admin st red by political ma
chine. This machine may be called
Republican or it may be called Demo
cratic, but it will be machine all the
same, which will dictate nominations
and elections, will sell legislation to the
highest bidder, will levy toll upon all
officc-holders. and, if necessary to it's
ends, uW multiply offices for tic gang,
and tohe the peoples property By tara
ton or other,cise to pay them. The gang
must be paid to do the work of the ma
chine officers"
1t is a good indication of better gov
eminent when practical and conserva-
tive taxpayers, like Mr.. Darcy, are
out-spoken in their condemnation of
existing evils. We hope the matter
will be taken up by other taxpayers
in the county who are interested in the
cause fgood government Our friend
at Westphalia is certainly making a
good point when he says: To such an
extent has this evil gone that a meri-
torious poor man is driven from politi-
cal aspirations by the immense costs of
the primary and election contests. and
the wealthy are bankrupted and neither
class can afford the great expense.
This will naturally bring another class
to the front, who will make the neces-
sary outlay for their election, and after
wards make themselves solid, at the
peoples expense. In my opinion the
time has arrived when this thing must
be suppressed, or else popular govern
ment will be misnomer, if not a
mockery."
The dominant party in this county
are already in the heat of a factional
contest for the rich prizes upon the
local ticket this year. 1t is not sur
prising that such men as Mr.. Darcy,
conscious Of what has been done in the
past, should sound note of warning.
If nominations are to be bartered to
the highest bidder, public office will at
once cease to be a public trust, and our
local government will be almost as bad
as the Carpet Bag rule in the South
during reconstruction days.
