DEMOCRACY WILL WIN.

1t is Democracy's year to triumph.
Only in some storm of war or on the
dead swells consequent thereof does
the same party ride into the White
House twice in succession. From
Jackson-a military heroic Lincoln,
this was true. From Grant to Nc
Kinley it was also true. 1t is the De-
mocracy's turn to have victory. Also
it is Democracy's turn to carry New
York which Presidentally has swung.
pendulum-like, between the parties
since the long ago canvass of George
B. Mcclellan. Think what the Trusts
have:done? They have closed mills.
They have thrown men out of work.
Notably-and disastrously for McKin-
ley hopes to come-they have cast
idly loose, as commercial help not
needed, an army corps of $1,000 CON-
mercial travellers. Think what a
thunderbolt Of political war these
81, 900 "drummers" are like to prove
against Republicanism. The Trusts
have pared wages to the laborer. They
have put up prices to the public. Not
| one man iii the land, but has felt
| them gnawing at his substance. Look
about you and behold in sundrv in
stances the work of Trusts. Bryan
and Democracy owe such as Rookie

itude. The Standard Oil outrages in
the Occur d'Alene have given Idaho
to the Democracy. Also they have
| flowed the whole current of the miner
vote into the sluices of the Bryan
party from ocean to ocean. Standard
Oil offered Monet, Ohio's Attorney.
General, $i00, 900 as bribe. Monet
refused it and brought the attempted
corruption to the notice Of court.
Monet was beaten by Standard Oil
for renomination. Within the month
when Monett would deliver an ad-
dress against the Trusts and Cooper
Institute, Standard Oil interviewed and
forced cancellation of the Monet
date. Are not such acts of brides and
gags and lawlessness in the name OF
law, and free speech murdered, due

They will bring true folk to the Bryan

THE LEGISLATURE.

With the announcement OF the COM |
mittees ON Monday night the Legisla- |
ture buckled down to business. The
PERSONAL of the committees is Ger
tainly very gratifying to every friend
of good government. 1t does indeed
seem apparent that the leaders of the
Democratic party intend to conscien-
ciously fulfil the promises that they
made last fall. Never has Legisla-
ture started out under more promising
circumstances. There is one class,
however, we fear is going to have
very hard time of it. This will not be
good Legislature from their stand
point. We allude to the lobby. AT
the present time it looks as if they
will have a very barren existence. AS
one of them said feelingly the other
night. "This is not the good old time
of Sid. Mudd and Schaefer. Lloyd
Wilkinson is an awful good fellow
but he won't allow an honest man to
turn dollar" There is no question
Speaker has his way, the session of
nineteen hundred will go down to his
tory as a record breaker. In the Sen
ate there never was so much wire
pulling as in the House, but if there
should be, Mr.. Hubner stands ready
to put stop to any nefarious designs.
Hartford county is particularly for
| tunate this time. We have been well
represented as rule in past years
but certainly no better men were ever
there than there is this session. There
will be no breath of scandal attached
to any of Harford's chosen servants.
There will be much important leg
islation coming before the present AS
sembly as the files are now rapidly
filling up with bills to be passed upon.
We hope. however, that every meas
ure will have their due consideration
as no legislation is far safer
than bills passed without due time
being given for there proper consider
alton. 1t is evidently the intention Of
the leaders to prevent this as it will
be noticed that many important meas
ures have already been introduced.
Certainly the voters of Maryland,
or at least majority Of them are
gratified at this suspicious beginning.
They believed it would be done and
now have no cause to regret their
action in returning to power the party
they so absolutely turned down four
years ago. There are many things
though that the Democrats should re-
member. While work we'll begun is
half finished yet the other half must
have the same care and attention in
order to successfully fulfil their sacred
promises ma ie last fall on the hust-
ings.

THE MILK WAR.

At the present time the shippers Of
milk along the lines of the railroads
which centre in Baltimore, a certain
class of individuals and the milk con-
sumers are having a merry war, and
only time will be able to determine the
victor. There is no question but
what the farmers have been shabbily
treated by the milk dealers of Balti-
more. Many OF them have lost hard
earned money through irresponsible
dealers, and others have had their
milk rejected for triflirg causes when
the market was over-run. The de-
mand Of the farmers that they should
receive sixteen cents for their milk is
certainly a reasonable one, for any one
who cares to take the trouble to figure
it out can easily see that this is verr
little above the cost of production. 1t
is also right and proper that they
should receive their money promptly
for their shipments, as feed, freight
and labor must be paid for in cash.
Their agreement that the milk shall
be of u certain quality is certainly fair
to the consumer, SO it strikes us that
the whole trouble is caused by the
middle man. While we despise trusts
of every kind, yet trust such as the
farmers ARE now trying to form GER
taiuiy has its good points.
The greatest amount of the talk
soGsYs to colae from the middle man Or
milsman. lie seems to be the one
who il tryinE TO create an impression
tG:.t the farmers are endeavoring to
get an extortionGte price for their pro-
ducc, when in pciut of fact it strikes
US that the milkmau is the unreason-
able man. A profit of sixteen cents
gallon on milk certainly ought to pay
him for handling, when the farmer
can produce it for this and place 1t at

for the use of the government the
property thus sold and proceeded to
pay the bank a rental of 100000 per
year. Thus it has stood for the past
six months. The bank purchased the
property at O bankrupt price and by
the transaction does not part with a
dollar. 1t has in the meantime COL
lected $G5, 900 in rent. In order to
avoid the payment of State and muni-
cipal taxes, $4,000 of the purchase
price price is withheld, the deed lies
in the Treasury, and despite the own
ership of the bank, the record title to
the property still stands in the name
OF the Government aud thus the
bank escapes all tax. This is indeed
a serious matter and while the figures
we give were not taken from the books
by ourselves, yet the above facts are
alleged all over the country and stand
today uncontradicted.
If these facts are not true, why are
they suffered to pass by those who
should know. We fear they are true

trend of public affairs here lately. will
notice that there is strong inclina
ton on the part of the Hanna-Mc

MORE CITY BANK FAVoRIrIsM.

We remarked last week that there
has been a good deal of criticism about
the close relationship between the
National City Bank of New YORK and
the treasury off ials at Washington.
1t may be only a coincidence, but it il
indeed striking one, that the fact OF
their getting such great concessions
from the government such as we spoke
of last week, is not the only time that
they have been shown favorisIn by
the United States Government Off
Gals.
There was law passed by Con
gress. although there was very few
people aware of it's existence, to per
init the Secretary of the Treasury to
sell the United States Custom House
property in the city OF New York.
The sale was to be for not less than
three millions. AS the property il
valued by real estate experts to be
worth over five million it can be seel
at a glance that there must be some
thing radically wrong. The Sacre-
tary On the second day of last july
sold the property to the City Bauk
for S., 2G5, 900. The deed WIS made
out and a check placed in Mr.. Cages
hands for $40, 900 less than the pur-
chase price. Then the check was

their disposal inside the city limits.
If route only requires fifty gallons
per day there is a clear profit of eight
dollars, certainly fair days pay for
one man and horse and wagon. The
best thing the consumers can do is to
stand by the farmers. They are the
ones who are the most responsible and
reliable, and in the end will do the
square and honorable thing for all
parties concerned.
