agreeable contest for the spOils

We charge, and we will prove,
that the Republican party cast
aside and ignored an ancient and
honored law, commonly known
as the Eastern Shore law, i'll or
der to put the chief manipulation
of the Allegany Ring into the
United States Senate, and that
Governor LowndeS, who went
about the State i'll his canvass
four years ago speaking of public
Office being a trust for the benefit
of the people, proStituted every
Office i'll his gift to accomplish the
election of his master.
We charge, and we will prove,
that Gov. LOwndes, while assert
ing in an interview published i'll
the Baltimore San that there
should be no partisanship in the
conduct of the public schools,
has invariably appointed Repub-
licans as School Commissioners
to succeed Democrats whose
terms had expired.
We charge, and we will prove,
that Gov. LOwndes has usually
acted contrary to his public utter
ances, and we allege that be has
neither the capacity to accept
ably perform the duties of Gov
ernOr of Maryland, nor the cOur-
age to act contrary to the orders
of Wellington, if he had.
This is the indictment, not full,
but sufficient if sustained by
competent proof, to condemn Re-
publican rule in Maryland, and
in future articles we will produce
the evidence. After this is done,
and the case summed up and laid
before the people of this State

taxes and are interested in having

expect verdict of guilty by an

FOR COMPTROLLER,
Phillips Lee GoldsborOugh,
of Dorchester County.
FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL,
John V. L. Findlay,
of Baltimore CITY,

OF Baltimore City.
OF these nominees the names of
Lowndes and Goldsborough are
familiar to all as the present in
cumbents of the offices to which
they seek election. John V.
L. Findlay served two terms in
Congress as Democrat, being
elected in 1888. Later on he
changed his political creed.
The meeting was largely at
tended, although the work was
robbed of all its interest and ex-
element by having the ticket cut
and dried. TWAS truly ratifica-
ton meeting.
All the big guns of the party
were present, Wellington, Me
Comas and the rest. State Sen
atOr Stevenson A. Williams, of
Hartford county, was made chair
man and the customary commit
ties were appointed.
The platform is one of great
length. The effect of the con-
vention makes hardly a ripple up
on the surface Of the State polit-
zeal stream. 1t was all foreseen
and expected.

The Duty of Individuals and the
Party.

Every Democrat in the county
should do all in his power to help
achieve victory this fall. BY that is
meant t. take an ac i've interest in the
primaries and the selection of worthy
candidates, and after that to help to
elect them. Every voter can do much
for tue success Of he ticket by a word
of advice to or argument with some re-
fractory friend or one who has "A fam
cied grievance or who is displeased
for any reason with this or that III n
on the ticket. There is a growing sem
and not for parties. This is all right
as long as it is not abused, but even
now we see the effects of indiscrimi-
nate breaking away from party lines
and the difficulty If healing up the
many little shortcomings OF il divid-
uals d The strengthening out of COM
pick problems of party policy. If
Democrats could be persuaded that the
primaries are the places to wage war
against any person who aspires to Of
flee and not at the polling booth, more
genuine harmony could be seen to-day
than really exists. 1t is unpleasant to
realize this state of affairs and more so
to give publicity TO it, but this is done
tl,nf "A Il. l.,
upon which the good old ship of De-
mpcracy has been stranded and rem
edy provided against future disaster
Let those who have the interest of the
party at heart, look at these things and
act accordingly. Sitting At home and
moaning about or criticisiug these
evils will not mend matters any more
than allowing them to exist as in the
past will win elections. Never in the
last ten years has the chance of
defeating the Republican State
and county ticket been SO favor
able to the Democratic pa ty 80 in
tn present campaign. S ldom have
such weak candidates been nominated
or more diss ,tisfaction and apathy
been apparent than is shown by the Re
publirans everywhere. This even goes
as far As the state ticket. Our party
has a chance to elect its ticket or =
greater portion OF it if proper measures
are taken and good, able and popular
men are nominated. Only by 50 doing
can success be gained. Let this fact
be remembe ed 10y the delegates to be
appointed tomorrow 1T the primaries
and a concerto effort made to get the
sentiment of the people of the
county, and carry out Their wishes.
Nothing must stand in the way Of
good nominations. This accomplished
the rest can be safely left to the intel
ligent voters of the county, who we
feel certain will rally to the support of
the Democratic ticket. We have nom
mess on the State ticket who are gain
ing in strength and popularity every
day and We need local candidates for
all The offices, who will command the
esteem aud support OF all classes indi-
vlduaIly, instead of trusting, as with
the Republicans in the county, to the
fancied strength ofthe head of the ticket

see their mistake. The people under

ingly Let our watchword be good
nominations and harmony" and we
will sweep the county and state this

Eight Hour LAW Declared Void.

Denver, July l9.-The supreme court
unanimously decided the eighthour law to
be unconstitutional.
The eight-hour law which was enacted
at the late session of the legislature, APP
plies only to mines, smelters and mills for
the reduction of ores. The refusal of the
American Smelling and Refining Company
to pay the same wages for eight hours,
caused its smelters to be closed on June
18th, when the new law became operative.
This company, which is known as the
Smelter Trust, will now endeavor to reach
an agreement with its former employees as
to wages and hours OF labor, and to re-
open its smelters as soon as possible.
Officers of the Smeltermen's Union say
that the furnacemen who formerly worked
twelve hours day will work eight in the
future.

CLEVELAND RAILWAY STRIKE.
Disturbances Renewed After a Quiet
 Sunday.

l Cleveland, June 12.-After a quiet Sunday during which no attempt was made to run cars, the struggle between the Cleveland Electric Railway com pany and the striking employees was renewed in a lively fashion today. 1 The company startcd the first car for down town from the Lakeview barns at 10 o'clock, guarded by deputies and manned by imported men.
 The crowds jeered and some missiles were thrown. The next two cars dashed from the barns across the railroad crossing without stopping, violating a city ordinance. The strik- CTS secured warrants for the crews of these cars and both Of the new motor men were arrested
 Attempts to run the cars provoked small ricts all day. Several non-union men were roughly handled by the strikers. The company's directors passed a resolution refusing to submit the matter to arbitration.
 The attempt to move cars this after noon was attended by scenes of wild disorder in various parts of the city, though nobody was hurt and very lit tie damage was done to property. Cars were run on two lines at very irregular intervals, but without pass engers and mainly under the protec- tion of policemen. The principal work of the mobs, which were com posed largely of idlers and spectators, was to block tracks. The company says it has sufficient men to operate its cars tomorrow, but 1t is denied by the strikers. The development of the day was the refusal of the com pany to let the state board arbi- trate on a question involving a recog- nition of the union

 Early in this fight Dr. H. A Young of the Utah battery was cut off by the insurgents, and his body was found horribly mutilated.
