OBJECT LESSON IN HIGH
TAXES.

There seems to be a close unison be-
tween high taxes and the Republican par
ty. The Westminster Adrocate points to
the fact that the Democrats have had
almost exclusive control of Carroll county
for thirty-two years, and that the tax rate
is only As cent. The rates in some of the
counties under Republican rule are as
follows; Allegany, 81; Calvert 90; Charles,
IS, Caroline, S1.12t: Frederick, 80; Gar
rett, 80; Prince Georges, o. Somerset,
Baltimore county had been placed at a
figure which would cover the indebted
ness of the county it would have been
placed at not less than 81 90. The voters
of this county know this fact, and also
known that in elccting John V. Slade as
County Commissioner they are placing
man in charge of their affairs who give
them the same conscientious care he does
his private affairs lie will turn on the
light and let the people know the amount
of the county debt.
In speech at Canton on last Tuesday
night Mr.. John Grason, the Democratic
candidate for States attorney, said that
according to an examination made by
him the county would be $4OO, 1000 in debt
at the end of the present fiscal year. Re-
publican rule in Baltimore county has
been an extensive experiment for the
tax ayers.-Baltimore County Democrat.

ULTINIATJN SENT.

War between Great Britain and the
South African or TranSvaal Republic now
seems practically inevitable.
The Transvaal Government has sudden
ly prccir.tated the crisis by sending to
Great Britain an uitimatum consisting of
four demands and requiring an answer
by p. M, today. If Great Britain docs
not make a satisfactory answer within
the time limit, she is notified that her
course will be declaration of war.
The demands are that the differences
of the two Governments be settled Gy
arbitration or other amicable means: that
troops on the border be instantly with
drawn; that British rcinforccments sent
to South Africa since June be Withdrawn
within reasonable time, and that the
British troops now on the seas shall not
be landed in any part of South Africa.
Another note sent by the Transvaal
Government to Great Britain contains
defense of the Transvaars position.
The London Times" says it has reason
to believe that the British Governments
reply to President Kruger will contain
simply brief expression of regret that
he should have taken the serious step in
volved in addressing communication of
such nature, and the announcement that
Great Rritain has no further communica
ton to make to him at present.
In London there is no sign of yielding
to the demands. War is regarded as in
evitable. The war feeling in London was
shown by wild demonstration in honor
of the New South Wales Lancers, who
pas scd through the city on their way to
South Africa.
The situation on the Transvaa' frontier
is critical. British troops are sleeping on
their arms 1t is stated in London that
fighting may have already begun.
1t is reported that Great Britain has
bought from Portugal DeIagoa Bay and
surrounding territory. which has been
the Transvaal's only outlet to the sea not
controlled by Britain

Edwin Marisiianl'S Poem.

Mr.. Markham ) most recent poem, The
Muse Of Brotherhood, is one of the few
really great poems that the closing years
of the century have produced. In it Mr.,
Markham voices a lofty optimism that is
at once more impressive and more con
vincing than the notes Of hopelessaess and
despair that characterize The Man with
Hoe. At the same time lie noby sets forth
the principles of that universal brother
hood which slys:

CENSORSHIP ItENOEED.

Announcement was made at the War
Department Monday that the censorship
at Manila on press dispatches had been
removed. General Otis cabled the depart
ment on July 26 suggesting the abandon
ment of the censorship, but Secretary
Alger was Just retiring from the War De
paItment at that time, and he left TIE
matter to be decided by Secretary Root.
That official approved General Otis sug
gestion, and the Gems orship has not been
in force since September 9. The CORES
pondents' round robin is believed to
have caused the abandonment of the
censorship.
The announcement Monday of its re-
moval followed some show of feeling on
the part of naval ::oificers, who declared
that Otis had used his blue pencil for The
purpose of minimizing the work Of the
marines in Sundays operations. Uudcr
the present arran cement, correspondents
at Manila are required to furnish a copy
of each dispatch to army headquarters,
where it is filed The removal of the
censorship has not been apparent in any
more freedom OF comment.

Associate Judge, l. Thomas Jones, of
Howard county, was nominated for Chief
Judge of the Fifth Judicial Circuit by the
Democratic convention in Ellicott City,
Monday. Speeches by ex Senator John
G. Rogers, of Howard; Guy w. Steele, of
Carroll and ex-senator Robert Moss, of
Anne Arundel, were made during the
work of the formal nomination, which all
the delegations Endorsed by rising vote.
For a convention representing only three
counties the body was quite a large one.
Anne Arundel sent Il delegation of 81
members. Carroll had five represent
ativcs and Howard double delegatio n
and aiternatcs besides. There was much
enthusiasm among the large number of
Judge Jones friends who gathered here
from his home county, as well as among
the delegations. 1t was said his nomina-
ton will be especially well received in
Anne Arundel county, where Democratic
factions have been at war and where his
name on the ticket will tend to paclfy
the disturbed elements.

CAMPAIGN NOTES.

As further evidence OF the desperate
straits of the Republicans in this State,
We give the following extracts from
the Washington correspondence OF the
Baltimore San Of yesterday:
1T may he assured Mr.. Mckinley
carefully calculated in advance his pro-
gram for his Western trip, and most
particularly the effect he could produce
in Ohio. He will stretch a point to
take in Maryland, even should it he
only for an hour or two. AS said by
one of his close personal friends, the
shadow of Dewey is constantly looming
before him. He feels he must not lose
too many points this year, or the cry
for Dewey may sweep him off his feet"
Among politicians it was said We'd.
nesday that schemes were maturing to
sacrifice he remainder of the State
ticket, and also legislative candidates
in Baltimore and various other local.
tics, for the benefit Of the head of the
ticket, but whether this can be accom-
plished to any material extent depends
upon the ability and dextcrity ofthosc
who have it in Charge
Evidently the Republican managers
and the Republican newspapers in
Baltimore are not in harmony. Almost
simultaneously with the announcement
that Mr. Findlay is to use his persua-
sive powers with President Mckinley
to get him to come to Baltimore, the
Ncrs Of that city uttcrs the following
wall: "The President has no business
whatever with our local struggle this
year, and the Republicans could make
no worse blunder than dragging him
in. Let him attend to his duty and
destiny business in States that are
hankering after him and let poor little
old-fasbioned Maryland attend to its
own 'parochial affairs in peace
Governor Lowndes has sent circu-
lar letter to all of his appointees in
which he states: at is essential that
yon should use your best cndeavors to
continue the Republican party in
power in this State" How surprising
it is that the Governor of Maryland
should attempt to use the patronage oil
his high Office to pcrpetuatc his rule!
What shall we expect next from the
non-partisan, patriotic citizen that lie
boasts himself to he?
II we are not mistaken our excellent
Governor once appointed Mr. +. f.
Perkins, of this county tobacco inspec-
tor and then desired to control the APP
pointments under him to such an ex-
position in disgust. How does this
conform with the Governor exalted
ideas of pure politics? We repeat what
we said last week, that the tobacco
warehouses are political machines.
1t Should be remembered that Mr..
Mudd, of Charles county, who has re-
Gently formed 4 corartnership with
Mr.. LowHdes, of Allegheny county. IS
the identical parsonage whom our dis
tinguishcd Governor tried his utmost
to crush Politics makes such strange
bed-iellows. And yet we are told Mr..
Lowndes is not politician, but a
statesman.
The Republicans in Baltimore are
so much disturbed over the outlook
that they have commissioned Hon.
John Y. l.. Findlay, personal friend
of Mr.. Mckinley, to meet the Presi-
dent in Philadelphia and prevail upon
him to attend mass meeting in Balti-
more or to speak from his car when he
passes through the city.

theI efore, to divide the party. Inasmuch
as neither Governor nor Legislature will
have anything to do with the question of
the currency, there is nothing to prevent
gold Democrats and silver Democrats from
cordially uniting in support of the same

personally and individually worthy of
support. Their divergent views upon the
subject of free coinage and of the Chicago

There is no United States Senator to

any propriety be considered as factor or

own satisfaction. it must be presumed.
When that issue is presented again, if it

1t is doubtful whether The importation
of such Republican spell binders" as Sen
ator Thurston, of Nebraska, who is an
nounced to speak in this city shortly, and
Governor Roosevelt. of New York, who is
also billed to take part in the campaign
will be productive of any good-unless by
helping to swell the number of Demo
cratic votes. During the new charter cleo

lost considerably more than they gained
by bringing speakers from the counties

Comas, to tell the citizens of Baltimore
how to vote at purely municipal election.
