AsCK TO THE TERRITORIES
I0W the Committeeman's S
Contest will be SetteId.

The Oklahoma and Indian Ter
rltory contesting delegations went
nome today with their sleeves
Old up for another fight. The
national committee appointed a
Subcommittee, composed Of tones
of Arkansas, Blanchard, ofLouis-
iana, Taggart, of Indiana, Ryan,
OF Wisconsin, Stone of Missouri
and Gahan, OF Illinois, to determ.
inc the choice Of the democracy of
the two territories-for their nation
aFcommltteeman. Originally the
contests were referred directly to
the voters of the territories through
a motion made in the convention
by Gray, Of Texas, shortly before
the final adjournment. Most of
the delegates had left their seats
and were on their way out Of the
convention hall when Senator
Jones offered a subtitute for Gray's
motion, giving the national COM
mittee power tofill The vacancies

J.4ftogies, which was adopted. |
"A number Of the territorial dele
gates were not aware that this was
done. w. t. Hutchings, one of |
Marcum's managers, left Kansas
City last night in the beliefthat the
natioral committee would have no
voice in the matter. The effect of
Senator Jones' substitute, however
is simply to appoint a sub.commit-
tee to see that the democrats of
the two territories name persons

No More School Debt.

By the sale Of SIS, 600 Of Carroll county
school bonds last Wednesday, the debt Of the
county was increased 10 SS6,575.oo. This
last addition 10 the debt viii not cost The tax.
PAYERS one cent in the way Of increased tax.
alton.
The School Board has debt Of about
SOS. 600, which has been gradually accumnlai-
ing for the past twenty five years. The School
Board has had TO pay interest at the rate OF
six per cent, making it heavy charge upon
the Board. The average interest the past few
wears has been about $4,000 year. The
school bonds, just issued. bear but % per,
cent. interest, which is but S9so.eo, or a saw
ing of $500 90 year in interest.
Under the act authorizing the issuance Of
the school bonds. the County Commissioners
are required to withhold from the aPpropri-
atoms 10 the School Board $1,000. 90 year TO
pay interest on the bonds, until 1904, and
$1,000. 90 additional every year thereafter to
redeem $1,000. 90 in bonds
II will thus be seen that while the School
Board viii receive $1,000 90 a year less than
heretofore the Board will be $500 IA year bet
ter off, for they will be relieved Of $l500.o0
interest charges.
When the new school year opens, August
LIST. the School Board will not only be clear
of debt, but will have funds on band. Aud,
as above noted. being relieved Of interest
charges, they will have annually $4,000 more
than they have been receiving.
The troubles Of the School Boards OF the
past over debt aud interest, should be a lesson
to the present and future boards. They
should not expend one dollar mure than is
received from the county and state. When
they have expended this money to the best Of
their Judgment they have discharged their
whole duty. Tie people cannot expect more;
they will not expect more. And further, they
do not want any debt accumulated. While
the interest and principal of this debt Of SIS,
900 will not result in increased taxation, still
the bonds are debt against the county and a
public debt is by no means public blessing

McKinley's Embarrassment,

Abraham Fischer, C. II Vessels and A.
D. w. Wolmarans, the peace ENJOYS from the
South African republics, arrived in New York
on Tuesday. The shipping in the harbor
saluted the ship on which they arrived. The
envoys were met by special committee down
the harbor aud by large crowd at Hoboken,
where they landed aud where the mayor vel
coined them in a speech.
Attheir hotel in New York at night speeches
Of welcome we're made and the ENJOYS we're
assured that SO per cent. of the American
people we're in sympathy with them.
The ENJOYS have been invited to visit va
rious cities, aud these manifestations OF
friendliness and sympathy with the Beers will
cause embarrassment to the Mckinley Adj
miuistration. which is in sympathy with
England The President will receive the en-
VOWS. not officially, but as citizens and 1t will
be interesting to note with what diplomacy he
viii speak 50 as avoid offending England and
at the same time be courteous enough not 70
opeply show his unders landing with Queen
Victoria government.
Another source of embarrassment 10 the
Hanna. Mckinley Administration will be the
part taken in reception to the Boer peace
envoys by Senators and Representatives Of
the Republicans party in Washington.
The visit Of the ENJOYS will have power
FIJI influence in American politics. Already
Mr.. Fischer has aroused the greatest sympathy
by his remark in New York on the night OF
the arrival Of the ENJOYS, in response TO =
speech of welcome

nrica. We do not intend 10 be murdered cut

our cause. If you find it wrong, then We Will
submit 10 being made practical slaves and
Give No our lands. If we are right. then We
want YOU to help rs to maintain the things
we have won at great sacrifice.
That has sound Of the utierances OF the
patriots Of 1916, when the American colonies
were about to enter upon struggle similar 70
that the South African republics are making
and against the same oppressor nation Mr.
Fischer's words find a hearty echo throughout
this broad land, and the people will await

The Mckinley organs have been requested
to give as little publicity as possible to the
postal scandals in Cuba. The Hanna. Nc.
Kinley combine has become alarmed. Al
ready the Mckinley Administration had as
much as it could stand, and it is feared the
Cuba scandals would weight it down to de,
feat.
Skaters laundering at Santiago,
The Alger beef scandal,
The Eagan affair,
OTIS incompetency in the Philippines,
Favoritism in the Army and Navy,
The effort to belitlle Schley,
Abrogating the Monroe Doctrine,
Denying the Declaration of Independence,
make a formidable list of charges to de-
fend, and still the list is not complete, with
out the Cuban scandals, and it is no wonder
Hanna is becoming fret ghtened and is calling
on Republicans to refrain from giving much
publicity to the rascality in Cuba.

Bad Politics.
From the Cecil Wing. May II

From the Cecil Wing, May T.
The Cecil Wing has no desire to raise dis
cordant voice on the eve of an important ma
tional election, but in behalf of party unity
and party fairness, it enters an earnest and
emphatic protest against the deal eonsum-
mated on Tuesday in the Second Congressional
District convention, through which Cecil
county and four Wards OF Baltimore City were
practically ''shut out" of voice in its pro,
ceedings. No justification can exist for such
a cut and dried trade, as parceled out a
Congressional nomination to Baltimore coun-
" in consideration of district delegate each
for Carroll and Hartford counties. This com
bne'' planned and arranged before the meet
ing of the convention TO monopolze the hon
ors of the hour, was effected in singular dis
regard of the fact that neither Baltimore eoun-
ty, Hartford or Carroll, will probably give a
Republican majority in November, the four
Wards of Baltimore City and Cecil county be-
ing the only sections of it, from which Rep
ubican majority is either possible or probable;
Yet these sections were deliberately ignored
on Tuesday by cut and dried program that
was a impolitc as it was uniustifable.

Bosrox, MASS. May ga 4.year-old
South Boston boy, VIM. Geary. had his tongue
nearly cut off yesterday by an unknown fellow,
who is described as being about Is years old.
Young Geary was accosted by the boy on a
country road He was asked to show his
tongue. As he did so, the rufhan grasped it
between the thumb and finger of his left hand,
and with knife in the other nearly cut it off.
He then escaped. The little fellow suffered
from loss of blood, but will recover.
