wards for partisan activity.
He was scarcely warm IN the
Executive Mansion before hc
began dealing out offices To
make Wellington senator and
enable Mudd 20 get nomna-
ton for Congress.
In no instance can it be
shown that the Governors
practice has harmoniZed with
his public utterance. 1t IS in
conceivable how he can have
:he effrontery. with his record
altogether To the contrary. To
go into print and say that pub
lie office should be used solely
for the public good and not as
rewards for partisanship; that
the judiciary should be taken
out of politics. and that politics
should be eliminated from the
practical management of the
public school system.
Gov. Lowndes is an extreme
partisan, and he has shown il
in every act since he was in
augurated. His published views
to the contrary are only intend
ed To deceive and draw attcn-
ton away from his record.
Hon. Isador Rayner. in his
speech at Frederick, on Sep
tember 81. drew very good
picture of the Governor as Il
purist in politics. He said
He Gov LowndcS i rs shrcwd and
as schemeing Il politician aS WAS ever
graduated from the political S,minarios
of Allegany. When he is farming his
political contracts at the Maryland Club.
he is an ardent reformcr, but when n" =

and banquets he Is a. bitter an enemy
of the Democratic party aS the extremist
fanatic from the shores of New England.

lestial regions of Allcgany county and
lands IN Baltimore city. h. cnvclops
himself i'll his dazzling domino Of re-
form. so that he can flirt gracefully
with the independent vote of the city"
The plain meaning of what
Mr.. Rayner said is that the
Governor word cannot he de-
pended upon in politics. and II
is fact that most of the Re
publicans leaders place no con
fidence in him. Neither Nal
ster, Wellington nor Mudd trust
him. Wellington. who knows
him better than the rest, says
he is untruthful. In a letter to
the Governor, on September -,
in answer to one asking him To
resign as chairman Of the State
Central Committe, Senator
Wellington used this language:
Il write more in sorrow than in anger.

NESS and TRUTH
Such is the character of the
man whom the people elected
to the high office of Governor
of Maryland. His talk on the
stump and through the press in
1895 and ever since about
political reform. non-partisan
schools. Il nOn-partisan Judi
ciary. civil service reform. &c,
was cant and rank hypocrisy.
1t remains to he seen whether
the people have fully realized
his true character and will bury
him with their ballots ON No

Washington, Feb. 22.-Before the in

fore the inquiry board that he found
