The date Of the State epublican
Convention has net been fixed but
the candidates seemed to be agreed
upon. Messrs. Wellington, Mudd,
McComas. and their lieutenants,
big aud little, have assembled in
committee and resolved that the
Republican ticket in this falls cam
paign shall be For Governor,
Lloyd Lowndes /; For Attorney
General, John v. l.. Findlay For
Comptroller, Philips Lee Colds
borough. At such time as seems
good to the managers, the party
may be invited to convention and
ratify the choice. But the ticket
is made, and q convention is a
mere formality that but for the
look Of the thing and the pleas
ure Of the gathering might well be
dispensed with. Having been done
BY Republicans, such proceedings
shcald, Of course, not be called
"bossism. but management. I"
However,
You may change, you may alter the
name il you choose to
But the scent of the roses viii cling
where II used to-
That many voters broke away
from the Democratic party in Mary
land because Of just such ready
made tickets is ancient history and
cuts no ice with the Republican
leaders, for Mr.. Wellington is on
record as saying that his party does
not need Independent votes. And,
if the independent voters will look
at things with eyes open, it
Won't get them. But the people
whose attention we would like to
see attracted to the matter, are
the recalcitrant Democrats who
have been estranged from their
party and have followed blind
guides now demonstrated by events
to nave been either stupidity or will
fully wrong. We want to see such
voters retrace their steps ani make
amends for the harm they helped
to do. What earthly reason is there
now Why any voter who has ever
been identified with the Democracy
should aid the Welllngton-Lowndes
Mudd-Machine?

BALTIMORE, June IL, 1893.
Messrs. Editors Since our last letter
ii has been hot-nearlY one hundred in
the shade-and out in the sun away over
that. 1t was knock out drops, and your
writer happened to be one OF the un-
lucky ones. We have. from the effects
of the intense heat, been housed for the
past three days and under treatment of
the doctor, but am thankful to say, at
this writing, that we are improving and
hope soon to be at our post of duty.
Showers We are now having, will likely
produce fall in temperature, and we
hope that the coming week will be more
pleasant than the one just passed.
Some deaths have occurred from heat
during the past week. and lots of sick
ness has been brought on by such high
temperature. Doctors say they are kept
busy and most of their patients are more
or less sick from heat.
We note e very pretty wedding on
last Tuesday evening at Harlem Park u.
Z. Church. The contracting parties
were Mr.. Stephen NJ. Jones, of Sand
Gates, St. Mary's county, and Miss Fan
ME H. Barber, of Baltimore. The cere-
mony was performed by Presiding Elder
L. B. Wilson, of Washington District,
assisted by the Rev. j. C. Nicholson,
Pastor of the Church. The bride wore
travelling suit of violet trimmed with
white silk, with hat aud gloves to match.
The ushers were Messrs. Henry Jones,
w. II. Childs, Edward Starr and J. III.
Jones. After the cermony. the young
couple left for an extended trip to At

On their return they viii reside at the

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From Our Regular Correspondent
~ ASuINn rnN n n Innn 10 /,

Rrom Our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON, ID. c., June IL, 80.
Everybody is asking everybody
else why the administrator is try
ing so hard 10 keep the people in
the dark about what is going on in
the Philippines, when only short
time ago it was it's boast that it
published all the official dispatches
received. 1t Is known from the
press reports that have been allow
ed to pass tho Military Censor at
Manila, that hard fighting has been
going on. and the suspicion is grow
ing that Gen. Otis is making some
use of the volunteers who should
be on their way home, if any of the
numerous promises made had been
kept, that the administration
doesn't wish their friends at home
TO know until whatever is being at
tempted is all over. And 1t is ad-
mitted by officials that there are
differences between Major General
Otis and Mr.. Schurman, President
OF the Philippine Commission, but
claimed that the differences are un-
important. The public doesn't
care continental about the claims
made by officials, but it wishes to
know and feels that it has a right
to know what is being done With
our volunteers hence there is a
general feeling of resentment
against the suppression of official
dispatches.
One of the principal reasons Why
Secretary Alger desires to retain
the War portfolio, even when he
knows that Mr.. Mckinley would
like to get rid of him, will soon be-
come apparent to close observers,
as it has been announced that
nGmber of franchises for various
more or less valuable concessions in
Porto Rico are shortly to be grant
ed. 1t nigh. naturally be suppos-
ed that such franchises, il granted
at all before the establishment of
the civil government for the island,
would be granted by the Military
Governor, but no chances are to be
taken by the men who are after
those franchises; they are to be
granted By Secretary Alger, and it
is dollars to glnger-cakes that every
one of them that is at all desirable,
viii be captured by his friends and
business associates.
In issuing a second elaborate de-
Tense of Mr.. Mckinley's Civil Ser
vice order, Secretary Gage rather
overdid his task, without changing
opinion. Criticism OF
the order have made Mr. Mckinley
very sore. and he has engaged in
Saint Mary's beacon. [volume] (Leonard Town, Md.) 1867-1983, 1899-06-15

that st. Mary's has the right 10 boast Of
two more graduates Of Law in the per-
srns of Messrs. P. B. Ford and r.. T.
Thoiaas. They are two promising young
men, whom no one can say zught against.
We congratulate them and trust success
may crown their every effort. Don'f
forget both of thea are from the old
Eighth district We have not seen nor
heard much this week. Thsrefore, we

the explanation business himself
and even tried to get "funnY" by
telling how surprised Senators and
Representatives have been who have
come after some of the places ex-
cepsed from the Civil Service Rules
and found that thsy were all filed,
and that no removals we're contem-
plated. He also gave ont for pub
LEGATION a letter from the Board of
the Smithsonian Institution, asking
that the heads Of all the bureaus Of
that establishment be exempted
from the civil service rules. So
much explanation 10 calculated to
increase rather than diminish sus-
picion of that order. The full sig
nificance of the clause which per-
mi.s the reinstatement OF any gov
eminent employe, regardless of how
long they have been out of the gov
ernzent service, is just beginning
to I've seen. Under it every EN-
ploye who was dismissed during the
two Cleveland administrations can
be reinstated, if they have pull
enough.
Southerners we're pleased By the
selection of ex-senator Pasco, of
Florida, as one Of the nine Com
raissioners named by Dir. McKin-
ley to make an investigation Of the
Canal route across the Isthmns.
Representative Underwood, of Ala
bama, declares that the people of
his section regard provision for the
building of canal one of the most
important matters to come before
the next Congress. The last Con-
gress appropriated $1,000, 900 for
this Commission. 1t was uGder-
stood at the time that this provis-
ion was the work of the lobbyists
employed by the Panama Canal
Company. Unless those who think
they know are badly mistaken, the
Panama Company is not likely to
profit by the Commission, which is
regarded as almost sure to report
in favor of the Nicaragua route.
How soon this Commission will re-
port is matter of doubt, but its
members have been requested to
try to do so before or during the
next session of Congress.
A committee of distinguished
Cubans are in Washington to pro-
test against the order of the War
Department suspending all legal
proceedings on debts contracted be.
fore last December, in Cuba, and
to endeavor to get the order re-
voked, or at least modified. They
say that the order is paraly zing the
business of the planters, by max
ing it impossible for them to bor-
rowing money without paying ex-
tortionate interest, but their chance
for success is not encouraging, as
the order in question was one of
Ayers pet schemes.
Members of the administration
are greatly exercised over the latest
news from the Cars Peace Confer
ence at the Hague, which gays that
Germany is opposing the arbitra-
ton scheme, and that she will pa OBJ
ably get enough votes from the
smaller powers represented, to de-
feat it. There are others, however,
who would feel grateful to Germany
il it would defeat the arbitration
scheme, because they regard it as
much more likely to prove hurtful
than helpful to this country, if
adopted. NIvIs.
