When the republican party came
into power in Maryland every position
OF honor or emOlument was filled by
an adherent of the democratic ma
chine; all the boards of control of the
various penals, charitable and
eleemOsynary institutions, as well as
the entire public school system were
in the hands of democrats who had
obtained their positions either as a
reward or as a recognition of some
service to the bosses and managers of
the German machine.
1t is nothing more than a frank
statement in the matter to say that
the interests of the public service was
the last consideration that influenced
the appointing power in making up
the extensive organization that was
to manage public affairs and expend
the taxes of the people, The question
Of first importance was how to
distribute the Offices so as to perpetu-
ate the power of the political combi-
nation that controlled the destinies of
the State. For nearly thirty years
this condition of affairs continued
When the people became restiye and
showed signs of open revolt, fraud
violence and intimidation were the
methods adopted to maintain the
power of the ring and hold the peo-
pie in subsection to it's unwholesome
rule.
Under these conditions progress was
impossible. Old systems and methods
of conducting public affairs, long OBJ
solete in other States, were chung to
with a tenacity that indicated q con-
dition Of political decay. When the
people clamored loudly for change
in our rotten election laws the master
called the editors of his organs to-
gether and advised them that a
change in the manner of holding our
elections would be unwise for the rea-
son that our people were too ignorant
and illiterate to properly appreciate
the proposed change. He might have
gone farther and told his minions that
the ring had done it's best to retain
the people in darkness, and to pre-
vent them from keeping pace with
the general improvement of the age.
And the fact is our condition was
stagnant even to the verge of paraly-
sis. General Assembly after General
Assembly came and went. Volumes
of local laws filled the books, but not
one beneficial or even wholesome
general law was enacted in all the
years of the rule of the ring. Jobs
that were profitable to the bosses
alone were numerous, but the public
welfare was a thing long forgotten.
The people had no standard in the
Court of the ring.
These are some of the things we
have discarded. These are a few of
the evils from which we have escaped
Does any one desire to return to the
flesh ports of the democratic Egypt?
Is there any reason why we should
turn backward? We are now fairly
entered upon the broad highway of
republican prosperity and progress
| We have done much for the general
good since the party came into power
and we propose that the good work
shall continue.

Various Kinds of Courage.

There are many kinds of courage.
One kind issillustrated when a man
amid danger and disaster calls, even
with his last hard drawn breath as
he is overwhelmed, words of hope and
cheer. Another kind, perhaps, is
manifested by Col. w. j. Bryan. The
shining tide of prosperity rises higher
and higher. The hum of reviving in
dustry and the music of hope and
comfort become louder and louder.
But the Colonel fights on manfully
and strives to make heard above the
cheerful din his banshee wall of dey-
astation, desolatiOn and despair. He
insists that we are lost and ruined.
poor and needy, however well-to-do
and comfortable we may believe our
selves to be. He reserves the reason
ing of the faith cure people who say
our ailments are imaginary. He says
we only imagine that we feel well
whereas we are really in most de-
plOrable condition. The Colonel is
the furthest back kind of back num-

THE WILLIAMSPORT Leader of last
week says: "GovernOr Lowndes does
not need any boom toinsure a renom-
nation. The improvement in affairs
generally, the fact that the conduct
of elections has been placed beyond
the control of the ward heller; that
the financial condition of the treasury
is such as to justify a reduction of
State taxes, that every department of
the State government has been man
aged honestly, efficiently and econom-
ically-these are the arguments
upon which Governor Lowndes'
friends will rely for an endorsement
by denomination for the Office of Gov
ernor. If the republican party is con-
troled by wise council, if it hopes for
continuance of power in this State, it
must uphold it's past by renominat
ing Lloyd Lowndes.n
