GERMANY MAY WELL PAUSE.
Not Believed She viii Cause Failure
of Conference.

the Times at The Hague says:
There is no sufficient reason, so far as
L can ascertain, to anticipate the failure
of the arbitration scheme. Germany's
objections may possibly have been init
mated to certain members of the confer
ence, but even In that case il would be
premature to take a pessimistic view. If
difficulties have arisen, they may yet be
smoothed over. Even so formidable a
power as Germany may well pause be-
fore assuming the terrible responsibility
of bringing about the failure of the con-
ference"

THE xTMAYoR oFBALTIMoRE

Mr.. Thomas g. Hayes has been
nominated as the Democratic candi-
date for Mayor of Baltimore. He is
one of the leading lawyers OF the
State, is endowed with the highest
order of legal ability, and possesses an
untiring energy, to which he has add
ed force Of character that commands
the respect and esteem OF all who
know him.
The vast and important interests of
the city can be COMMITTED to his care
in the full confidence that they will
be safeguarded in every particular.
There is in the nomination too, an
apparent vigor that attracts attention
and inspires hope, and while it ma rks
a new opening upon the political
chessboard ih Baltimore, and pre-
sages sure victory for the party in
the coming May election, it has also a
far reaching influence upon the State
at large. The very fact of Mr.. Hayes
receiving the almost unanim Gus vote
of the party in the primaries, shows
that past differences have been buried
in the united effort to do what was
best for the party. That such an ex-
cellent example should be followed by
the counties when they meet to place
the ticket in the field few months
hence, goes without saying; and we
trust that the same animating pur-
pose will so prevail in the councils of
the party, as will present a harmon
ious and vigorous line of action; for
such will prove invincible when the
party's cause is at stake.
The old saying that nothing sue
ceeds so like success" has often some
thing more attached to its meaning
than that which the mere surface of
the words suggest, and this is so in
regard to the results arising from
methods pursued in political affairs.
Democratic success in the coming
Mayoralty contest in Baltimore will
furnish an example in kind; namely,
the election of worthy, and well
qualified candidate, whose nomination
was brought about by the concensus
of opinion as to what was best for the
party, and who will preserve his
party's prestige 10 the city; and the
success Of whom, at that time, will

GOV. TYLER AND GOV. LoWNDEs

Eight Marylanders are prisoners in
