IN front OF the Senate Chamber and fac

eminent to all classes OF our people and
that the seed planted will continue to
grow. AS the retiring Executive, pre-.
sent to you him who has been elected to
be the Governor of Maryland tor the
coming four years"
Governor Smith then approached the
spot where Governor Lowndes had stood,
and delivered his inaugural address in a
loud, clear voice~that could be heard
with distinctness throughout the large
crowd. As Governor Smith took his
stand long. loud and enthusiastic cheer
went up from the crowd. Governor
Smith said in part;
Senators, Gentlemen of the House OF
Delegates and Fellow Citizens = -Four
years ago the Democratic party surrend-
cred the government of this State to the
Republicans. Prior TO that time, for
nearly thirty years, the Democrats had
shaped the destiny and controlled the
policy of this commonwealth.
"For reasons it would be futile to dis.
cuss on this occasion, the people. in the
exercise of their sovereign rights. saw fit,
in 1896, to change the public servants.
They elected Republican Governor and
Republican majority of the House -oi
Delegates. Two years afterward they
returned Republican majority to the
State Senate as well as to the House of
Delegates. thus placing both the execu-
tive and legislative branches of govern
ment into the hands Of that party.
"Whether during the opportunity thus
given them they have given good gov
eminent or otherwise; whether they have
measured up to the expectations of the
people who placed them in power, it is
not for me to say. Nor is it necessary
or appropriate at this time to pass judg-
ment upon them. Whatever the facts in
that regaid may be. il is certain that the
people have restored Democracy to power
in the State. They have again placed
every branch OF the government in our
hands. They have elected Democratic
Governor, Comptroller and Attorney
General.
"They have elected Democratic ma
jority in both branches of the General
Assembly. We shall, at an early date,
be placed in possession of the Board of
Public Works. Thus we shall have the
entire and undivided responsibility of
State government. This responsibility
we asked the people TO give US. They
have complied with our request. We
must see to it they shall not be disap-
pointed. We promised them good gov
ernment. They have taken us at our

A Costly Fit of Temper.

An irreparable act of vandalism has
destroyed one of the most interesting
objects of art that have come down
from antiquity. The famous Gran
co.'s" vase at Florence has been smash
ed to bits by an Infatuated custodian.
The man had been reproved by the di-
rector of the museum for neglecting his
duties. He drew knife and stabbed
the director three times, then turned to
the collection and destroyed what he
could before he was overpowered.
The vase was the finest piece Of black
on red Greek pottery in existence and
perfect repertory Of archaeological
information. On it were pictured the
CaledOnian hunt, the burial Of Patro-
clus, the wedding of Peleus and Thetis,
Dionysus and Heph@stus in Olympus
and other legends. 1t was made in the
sixth century before Christ and was
discovered at Poggio Garella near Chlu-
81 in 1914 by the archaologist Francois.
The value set on it by the museum au-
thorities was 100000.

not sufficiently strong to make it tri-
that is only the fortune of po-
1itica1 parties, and time treats all
alike. All effort to embark upon a
campaign with false or emergency is
sues, adopted for the sole purpose of
catching votes, when on the real and
only questions at issue the party
adopting the false expediency is GER
tain of defeat, is Organism, not states
manship, and, as in the present case,
more likely to wreck than to right.
The character of our institutions de-
mands such permanent party of OPP
position. The Democratic party has
hitherto been that party. It will con-
tinue to be. 1t should be easy to reor
ganize so old a party and there is no
lack of material for leadership among
those of the regular Democratic party.
The Telegraph-courier. [volume] (Kenosha, Wis.) 1888-1946, 1900-11-15

It is small wonder that such men as
Bryan, A1tge1d, Stone and the rest of
those who have been conspicuous in
the recent campaign should oppose the
reorganization of the Democratic
party. Would they have place IN such
an organization! They are not of the
Democratic party to which Cleveland,
Hill and Hewitt belong. If that party
conceive what part these gentlemen of
the Bryanesque style of Democracy
could take in it. They certainly could
not retain the position of leadership
they have assumed in the new Democ-
racy, and it is almost impossible to inn
agine them in any other position than
that they now occupy, that of boss
rather than leader. But since it has
become painfully evident that under
the leadership or boss-ship of Mr..
Bryan, with such characters as Alt
geld, Croker and Jones conspicuous in
his family of advisers, there can be
no successful party, the demand for a
new party or new organization of an
old party is imperative. 0Then what is
to be the result?
So long as Mr.. w. J. Bryan breathes
the breath of life he will no doubt be
the leader of something or another in
the shape of political party. Thus
far the discontents have been the great
sub-stratum of his following. AS there
are chronic discontents Mr.. Bryan
will always have following.
These constitute a very small mi
nority, however, and aside from these
are the great bulk of the people, from
whose number will be drawn the two
chief Eparties of the'nation Whether
the Democratic party has lost its dis
tinctive element may be.squestioned,
but that it has still its distinctive
function to perform there can be no
doubt. 1t may change its name. The
progress of time and the process of
events will certainly bring it new is
sues, but the Democratic party, by
whatever name it may be called, must
continue its course as it hassin the pre-
Ceding history of the nation. To do
this it must have leaders of the right
stamp. Such is not Bryan. His brief
dictatorship has demora1ized the party.
It now remains for it to reorganize on
a well defined plan, with man at its
head capable of leadership. If the is
sues on which it makes its stand are

ton for the result of their labors.
The Wisconsin is a sister ship of the
Illinois and Alabama. Her length at
the water line is 1858 feet, her beam Y
feet and her mean draft % feet 6
inches. Her displacement is 1925
tons and her contract speed 16 knots
per hour. The armor of the big ship
consists Of a nickel steel belt varying
from to 1865 inches thick. Her tur-
rets are protected by steel plates Is to
II inches thick and her coming tower
by 10 inch armor. The entire mass Of
the armor is $500 tons. The arma-
ment of the Wisconsin carries four 10
inch breechloaders, fourteen 6 inch
quick firing guns, seventeen 6 Founders;
six 1 Founders and four machine guns.
Her great engines develop 10000 horse
power, and her complement is 400 men
and officers.
Our newest battleship has one novel
feature-the Hichborn balanced clip
teal turrets. These turrets have the
front plates slightly inclined and the
rear plates vertical. They are so ar
ranged as to reduce very greatly the
Earring of the ship by the recoil Of the
great guns contained in them. They
are the invention Of Rear Admiral
Philip Hichborn, chief constructor Of
the United States navy. The turrets
have been led and answer their pur-
pose very we'll.

due for the addition to our navy Of the

Of Quakers. He was born on Christ

Friends, intended him for one Of the
liberal professions, and he received an
academical education. The young man,
however, was of a mechanical turn Of
mind and learned in Baltimore the ait
Of building nd designing engines.

Party HarmOnY.

For the past four years, at least, the
Republican party in the State has had
a rather disturbed existence. Condi-
tions have prevailed that seemed to
Justify the exu1ting claim of It's op-
ponents that the party was irretriev-
ably divided by irreconci1ab1e factions.
There was triumphant opposition to
the present Governor-e1ect at two sue
cessive nominating conventions and
very we'll defined opposition before the
convention that finally nominated
him. It was quite generally conceded
that there would be considerab BILE
scratching on the head Of the State
ticket as result of this latent opposi-
ton. and it was the fear of many of
the leaders that the candidate for Gov
ernor would run behind to a marked
degree.
All these expectations have been
overthrown in most decisive manner.
Mr.. La Toilette has quite kept pace
with the general ticket and has been
elected by the largest plurality ever
given a Governor of the State.
The significance of this fact is most
discOuraging to the hopes entertained
by those who had looked forward to a
ruption in the party. It is evidence
that the party in Wisconsin is solidly
organized, and possessed of an integ-
rity and stability not easily disturbed.
The result is one on which the party
may congratulate itself, and is certain
~ most complimentary to Mr.. La Fol
1ette. Ali animosity, if such there
were, all opposition and all differences
have been set aside and the party in
tact has rallied to the support of Mr..
La Toilette in a splendid manner.
Party unity and harmony is re-estab-
1ished so far as it is in the power of the
people of the party to consummate
that purpose. The rest remains with
Mr.. La Toilette. His position is not
the easiest in the world, but surely,
after the verdict of the polls. he may go
to his work with the assurance that he
will not be hampered nor embarrassed
by any feeling of dissatisfaction or
any manifestation of such feeling.
On the whole the prospects are the
most promising for complete settle
ment of the chickering's that have TO-
mented factiona1 troubles.

The Duke of Marlborough, at the
Woodstock agricultural and historical
show, told an amusing anecdote of the
BOer war Referring to the use Of
homing pigeons, he mentioned that at
the siege Of Mafeking General Baden
Powell expressed a wish that no Ia
dies should remain in the town. Lady
Sarah Wilson went out a distance Of
some Is miles, and being anxious to
communicate with General Baden-Pow-
ell, she attempted to do SO by means
of a carrier pigeon. Lady Sarah wrote
a letter and dispatched it with the
pigeon, in the hope that it would fly
straight into Mafeking, but instead Of
that it settled on the house Of the Boer
commandant who was investing the
town. The result was that the BOer
commandant ascertained where she
was, and she had to explain the reason
why she was near Mafeking.-St.
