IF Democrats mean by quoting
Havemeyer's rubbish to the effect
that protection is the mother of trusts
and by making other general state
ments along the line that the tariff is
responsible for trusts, that they
would like to make the tariff the is
sue in the coming campaign, nothing
would please Republicans better. But
Democrats, if they ever expect to get
into office again, must work up some
more sterling issue than low tariff or
free silver. Both questions have
been carefully laid away on the
shelf by the American people, not for
any future use, but for the last sad
rites, when the Democratic party can
spare time from hunting new issues
to accord them decent burial.

THE Legislative ticket presented
by the Republicans in this county
for the suffrages of the people cannot
be improved upon. Both the nomi-
nees, Messrs. Merritt Wilson and Pat
rick E. Finzel, are upright, honorable
and intelligent young men. Mr..
Wilson is engaged extensively in the
manufacture of lumber in District
No. and has been eminently success
full in conducting his business. Mr..
Finzel, not so well known probably
as his running mate, is engaged in
the mercantile business at Finzel in
District No. 8. In the winter he
teaches school near his home. He,
too, has been successful in his under
taking. Both gentlemen will make
creditable representatives in Annap-
oils and will carry with them to the
Legislative halls business ability COM
bined with executive acumen hard to

AGUINALDo in declaring that he
wants the Democrats to win in the
next Presidential and Congressional
election has done the Democratic
party bad turn. When the enemies
of the country take sides with either
political party they drive support
away from it. OF course this is very
thin and illogical reasoning; but in
matters of partisanship it is the Gel
tic method of ratiocination that pre-
walls. Said one Irishman to another

Mr.. FRED. a. THAYER, the present
incumbent of the States Attorneys
Office and candidate for reelection on
the Republican ticket, has made a
good record as public official. He
has been studious, painstaking and

son with that made by his predeces-

from the baltimore News Qnd. Dem.).
The present political campaign in
Maryland is one which is quite with
out a parallel in the memory of the
present generation of voters. The
situation in this State, and especially
in this city, has been somewhat pecu-
liar at all times within the past quar-
ter-century, but the popularity has
not consisted in that state of menal
balance, that absence of intense feel
ing either way, which has characteriz-
ed the attitude OF thoughtful and con-
scientious voters this year. On the
contrary, in almost all of the local
and State campaigns which have
taken place since the great reform
movement to which Wallis and his
followers gave such an impetus in
1875, there has been an intensity of
feeling which manifested itself in the
generation of high degree of heat
at a very early stage in the contest,
and hesitation as to the side on which
a man should range himself was a
highly exceptional occurance. In the
present campaign, on the other hand,
nothing has been more notable than
the calm and critical frame of mind
which has prevailed throughout a
large proportion of the people. The
persons who have been asking them
selves, and asking each other, the
question Under which fiag?" are to
be numbered by thousands, and,
though we are now but four weeks
from election day, the question is
doubtless, in a great proportion of
these cases, still unanswered.
What is the meaning of this state
of things? Why is this campaign thus
differentiated from preceding ones?
A part of the explanation, and an i'm
portalt part, is to be found in the re-
markable completeness with which
national issues have been excluded
from the contest; thing which, by
the way, would have been quite i'm
possible had the choice of a United
States Senator been impending. But
this is, after all, a very incomplete ex-
planation; the great reason why a
feeling of something like neutrality
has prevailed among earnest citizens
is one in which Marylanders can take
much solid comfort. The fact is that
there has been such an improvement
for the present at least-in the po-
litical condition of our city and State,
and both parties have been to so
great an extent put upon their good
behavior, that no strong feeling of
alarm or resentment exists in refer
ence to either. The general character
of the nominations made by both is
distinctly above what we have been
accustomed to expect, and the worse
elements in both have been vigorous
ly and persistently thrust into the
background by the efforts of saga
cious leaders. The amount of "pan-
dering'' to which 1.-The better ele-
ment" has been treated is something
which only the oldest inhabitant
would undertake to match out of the
records of his memory.
There has thus been good ground
for deliberateness and delay in com.
ing to decision; and this has been
especially the case because Baltimore
city nominations for the Legislature
were not completed until last night
The account is now made up, and the
time has arrived for striking a bal.
] ance. To begin at the end, it may as

at his distorted reflection, he rushed
back to his wife, who was still watch
