equality and that anything tending to
destroy human equality was dangerous
to Democratic institutions. A survey
of the wonderful development of
Democratic institutions fills one with
en- admiration surpassed only by the
modern perils. The establishment of
our government is the greatest event
in history, because it is the consum-
nation of centuries of progress. Our
constitution is the clear expression of
individual freedom and equality for
which the Anglo axons have stood for
a thousand years. Under the beneh-
cent influence of principles established
by it there has grown up a nation,
the f%iercest, the strongest, the richest,
the most righteous in the world, civ.
ing assurance of a permanence to be
found nowhere else.
Two forces hold the earth to its
orbit; the centrifugal, and the centri.
petal. So in social and political affairs
there are the same two forces, the one
tending to individualism and anarchy,
the other to socialism and paternalism
In our social affairs the centrifugal is
the stronger, while in political affairs

DEATH OF DINGLEY.

House and Senate take Appropriate Ac-
tion.
WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 18th q
House of Representatives met yester
day under circumstances of deep sor-
row, caused by the death of Repre-
sentative Dingley. Mr.. Boutelle, the
senior member of the Maine delega-
tlon, feelingly announced his asso-
GATES death and offered resolutions,
which were unanimously passed, pro-
vldlng for services in the House at
noon Monday, for a committee to at
tend the funeral at Lewiston, etc. AS
further mark of respect the House
adjourned.
In the Senate Mr.. Hale announced
Representative Dingley's death;
committee of Senators was appoint
ed to attend the funeral and the Sen
ate adjourned.
1'elson RiaSley, who spent nearly.
40 years in public life, was above all
political student, whose actions
were based on his convictions and
who always held the respect of those
associated with him i'll legislative
work.
lie was the son of Nelson and Jane
Lambert Dingley and was born in
his grandfather Lambert's farm
house at Durham, Me, Feb. 10, 1882.
Newspaper work had always strong
ly attracted Mr.. Dingley, so in 1856,
when he was admitted to the bar, he
did not take up the practice of law,
but purchased the Lewiston journal,
which soon became a republican Or
gan of power, and of which he retain
ed the ownership to the time of his
death.
The people of Auburn. sent him to
the Maine Legislature in 1861. Re-
elected i'll 1862, he was chosen Speaker
in 1858. He moved to Lewiston and
was sent to the Legislature from there
and again chosen Speaker in 1864. In
1865 he refused election as Speaker,
preferring to be leader on the floor.
His long services in the State Legis-
lature was broken in 1873, when he
was elected Govenor of Maine by
majority of 10,0 900. He was reelected
in 1874, but declined a denomination
in 1915, although his election was an
assured fact, as he had won the appro-
baton of both parties.
From 1876 to 1881 he was a conspic-
uous figure in the Republican Nation
al Committee, one of the ablest of
the party writer's and dstumpspeakers.
The elevation of Mr.. Frye to the Sen
ate i'll 1881 opened the way for Mr..
Dingley to a seat in Congress. He
was elected by 5000 majority and has
been sent back to every Congress
since.
The currency, tariff and fisheries
questions have always been the sub
jects to which Mr.. Dingley has devot-
ed his close attention. He believed
it was the duty of men elected to Con-
gress to make themselves masters of
those matters which came most easy
to them.
When certain Congressman com
planned to him that their speeches
on the floor were not listened to he
told them it was because they had
merely SKINNED the surface of their
subject and not dug down deep into
it. "Old Thoroughness" was nick
name that he was given by many of
the Washington correspondents by
whom he was greatly liked for rea-
son that there was nothing secretive
about him. He was not afraid of
publicity.

PROPAGTION OF FISH.
Commissioner George Making a Record
for MARYLAND Waters.


for MARYLAND Waters.
The first consignment of the lot of
100000 trout eggs arrived at Druid
Hill Park hatcheries yesterday. The
lot consisted of 100000 eggs, which
had developed to the state where the
eyes in the embryo were formed. The
eggs were at once put in the hatch
ing cans. Mr.. A. F. George. fish com
missioner for the Western Shore of
Maryland, was present when the eggs
arrived. Mr.. George was for two
years president of the Druid Hill Park
hatchery. In May last he was APP
pointed a fish commissioner.
His annual report, which he has Just
submitted to Governor Lowndes,
shows that he has not been idle since
his appointment In it he states that
10000 persons are engaged in the fish
Industry in Maryland. In 1898 the
value of their outfits on the Western
Shore alone amounted to $5,001, ,968.
He says he has kept in touch with the
United States and State fishery com
missions. In referring to the Druid
Hill Park hatchery he says that the
old carp pond there has been disposed
of and the pond is now used for the
propagation of bass. These fish can
not be Matched artificially, but the
ponds at the park are filled with stock
fish, and he hopes soon to have plenty
of bass to stock streams.
The big Matching season begins in
April when the shad and perch are
ripe. Many of these fry will be placed
in the Severn river, which, it is said,
has been neglected in previous distri-
buttons. Among the interesting sta
tistics which Mr.. George furnished are
the following:
In the year 1898 there were deposit
ed in the waters of Maryland on the
Western Shore: Brook trout, 3G2, $50;
rainbow trout, 19,475; shad, S.O75, OO0:
white perch, 100000; yellow perch,
2,500,000; catfish, 1900; large mouth
bass, 925; small mouth bass. "A: crap
pei, 200. The shad distributed were
but 1922, 800 fewer than had been dis
tributed in the three preceding years.
From 1874 to 1894, inclusive. the fish
commissioners of the State planted
14,965,000 perch. No record of any
planted in waters of the Western
Shore can be found. In 1897, SEQ, ,OOC
were planted in waters of the West
ern Shore. In 1898, $500, 600 perch, OF
nearly one-half as many as were
planted Ill the waters of the whole
State in twenty years, were planted
in the waters of the Western Shore
This was 100000 more than had
been distributed in the Western Shore
waters for twenty-fOur years
From 1874 to 1896, inclusive, the
greatest number of brook trout dis
tributed in Cne year was 212, 160, and
during period of twenty-three years
total of 1914, $40. In 1897 3O7, 1OC
were planted. This great record for
1898 Mr. George will try to exceed dur
ing the present year.

THREE SUSPECTS ARRESTED
II 1.-THE Right Man can be Positively
Unidentified it Win go
Hard With Him.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark, August is.-
Five brutal ASSAULTS By n negro on
white women have occurred in Little
Rock In the past twenty-four hours. Il
Is generally believed that all these
crimes were committed by the same me-
gro, but three suspects have been ar
rested. and If the right man can be
positively Identified he may receive
summary punishment.
The Victims OF the assaults are all
highly respected white women of this
city. Their names are Mrs. Belle Al
ken, 2114 Chester street; Mrs. Milton
Young, 24Ol State street; Mrs. Kennedy
Fourteenth and Jones streets; Miss
Emma Longcoy, 1920 Booker street,
and a young woman ut Twentieth and
Cross streets.
All the assaults occurred IN the SUBJ
urbs. The first was that OF Mrs. AIKEN,
which occurred yesterday afternoon.
As Mrs. Aiken was passing by Twenty
first ana High streets, the negro seized
her and dragged her to the woods. She
resisted, md cried for help. A pass
erby frightened the negro away. after
he had severely beaten his victim. oth-
GERS at once began n search for the
assailant, but failed to find him.
Beaten and Robbed.
At 8 O'Clock this morning, a few
blocks from the scene of the first crime
Mrs. Young was assaulted in almost
the sa,ue manner. The negro knocked
her down with such force that RIB
was broken, causing internal injuries
Of n serious nature. He choked and
beat her about the head and on the
side, inhlcting very serious injuries.
The negro finally seized her purse and
disappeared in the woods. Mrs. Young,
who Is n fraIl woman, is In a precarious
condition from her wounds and the
shock. Her clothing was torn almost
entirely of in the struggle.
An hour later Mrs. Kennedy Bhs at
tackled at her home, near West End
Fork. She was knocked down, beaten
and choked. Her child ran for assist
aace and the negro fed. Mrs. kenpe-
dy's injuries are very painful.
About IL o'clock Miss Emma Long
coy, the eleven-year-old daughter OF a
grocer, was attacked and beaten by a
End Park. She escaped from her as
sailant. City and county officials, to-
.getber with a large number Of citizens,
were by this time securing the vicinity
for the negro. The greatest excite
ment prevailed. md the nelghborhood
was thoroughly aroused. The nth
assault occurred early this morning on
q well known young woman at Twenu-
eth and Cross streets. She was like
wise knocked down and badly beaten.
Her face was swollen and discoiored
from the effect of the blows.
These outrages were brought to the
attention Of Governor Jones, and he
at once offered a reward of 500 each
for the arrest and conviction OF the
guilty parties. Judging from the tenn
