Farewell, my husband and children, dear,
know you'd love to keep me here,
But Jesus calls, must obey,
And angels welcome me away,
Farewell, my parents, brothers, sisters, kind,
On earth leave you all behind;
Indulge no tears of grief for me
For what am you soon must be.
She has gone to heaven before us,
But she turns and waves her hand,
Pointing to the glories over us.
In that happy spirit land.
God, our Father, watch above us.
Keep us from all danger free,
Do thou guard and guide and love US,
Till like her we go to thee.

Maryland Legislature.

FRIDAY.-This was the last day, unless By
unanimous consent, that new bills could b.
introduced. Only eight were offered in the
House. Morning, afternoon and night ses
sions were held by both Houses and an i'm
mense amount of work was transacted.
MONDAY NIGHT.-In the Senate Presiden
Hub1er offered petition from Cardinal Glib
bons and others, and from ]. Burton, of Bal
timore county, and others, asking for the
passage of a general local option Law.
Among the Senate bills passed was one to
provide for gathering vital statistics in the
counties.
The bill to give to Johns Hopkins Univer
sity $25, 900 for two years was passed.
In the House the bill to substitute John
Eager Howard for John Hanson as the subject
for a statue to be placed in the Capitol al
Washington came up for a second reading,
and after debate which lasted for two hours
it was ordered to be engrossed for a third
reading. Gen. A. Leo Knott, Gen. F. c.
Latrobe and Mr. Robinson made speeches in
favor of the bill.
The second reading file was taken up and
large number of bills wefe passed to their
third reading.
At late hour both Houses adjourned, after
unusually busy sessions.
TuEsDAY-The Senate passed the Balti-
more gas bill as it came from the House,
placing the price at 81. 10 per 1000 feet A
large number of Senate and House bills we're
favorably reported and many bills were passed,
both general and local.
In the House the same routine was observed
at the three sessions. The Committee on
Education reported the compulsory education
bill, with an amendment eliminating the OBJ
jectionable features, such as requiring attend
auce at public school, &c. The bill substitnt-
ing Howard for Hanson was defeated.
WEDNEsDAY.-Fayorable reports. reading
and passing Senate and House bills kept both
Houses hustling.
Among the favorable reports in the Senate,
read and placed for third reading and pas
sage, were the bills to appropriate "a 600 for
the farmers institutes of the State; to make
more rigid the laws forbidding the sale of
oleomargarine as butter.
In the House unfavorable reports were pre-
sented upon the following Making the
school tax 124 cents on the 500; to prohibit
the sale of calves for slaughter until more than
three weeks old, and few local bills.
The House held three sessions, and some
of the members, clerks and employees were
nearly exhausted owing to the great strain IN
the houses and in the committee rooms.
THURsDAY.-Both Houses were engaged IN
favorably reporting, forwarding and passing
bills, and remained in session until a late hour.
During the morning session of the House,
personal encounter took place between Messrs.
Long and Staley, Democrats, of Washington
county, over the passage of the bill to incor-
porate the Fidelity and Trust Company Of
Hagerstown. The affair was soon quieied,
but bad feeling exists.

The Cause of It.

Il has been openly charged that the change
of the Mckinley Administration from the ad-
vocacy of free trade with Puerto Rico TO the
imposition of a tariff upon imports from that
island Is the work Of the trusts; that the trusts
laid down the ultimatum that if the Republi-
can party established free trade with Puerto
Rico they would not contribute to the Nc
Kinley campaign fund. Upon this matter the
Washington Star, a strongly Republican pa
per, says
.sThe deal has been made; 1t Is matter OF money
for the campaign, and the tariff measure Will De
carried through" This statement was made Dy a
Republican member OF the House who supporter
the bin In the House by his vote You may as
well set IL down that the deal will be carried out
he added sThe carrying out OF the recommenda-
tion OF the President for free trade with Porto kico
would have deprived the party OF a very consider
able contribution; the adoption OF the reverse po-
licy insures very large contribution. The posi-
bic unpopularty Of the Porto Rican tariff was bal
anced against the certainty Of money TO use in the
campaign, and the decision was in favor OF the
campaign contribution. II WAS not expected that
the storm OF protest would be strong as 1t Is, but
1t Is now too late for q change.

Deaths by Disease and Suicide in
the Army.

A resolution offered last Saturday by Mr..
Allen fNeb. was taken up ON Monday. 1t
called upon the Secretary Of War for the num-
ber of soldiers who have been killed or have
died in the Philippines since August l, 1898;
the number who have died of disease, been
wounded, committed suicide, and all other
similar information in possession Of the War
Department.
Mr.. Allen supported the resolution in brief
speech after Mr.. Gallinger had suggested that
it ought to go to the Committee on Military
Affairs.
Mr.. Galinger intimated that the resolution
would have the effect of discouraging enlist
ments in the United States army.
Mr.. Allen replied sharply to Mr.. Gallinger
He declared that to send the resolution to the
Committee on Military Affairs was to ''destroy
and smother it, Mr.. Allen declared that,
owing to the climatic and other conditions in
the Philippines, an American army could not
remain there for two years. He was credibly
informed, he said, that the whole American
army would have to be Withdrawn within a
few months. He said that illness and suicide
among the troops we're on the increase. he
believed that the American people were enti-
tied to the facts. He was prepared, he said,
to 60 SO far as to advise men not to enlist in
the army for duty in the Philippines.

A Contrast.

The tax rate in Baltimore under Demo-
cratic rule was $l.55 on the 500 in 1898,
$1.7O in 1894 and S1.75 in 1895.
Under Republican rule it was s2.Oo IN
1896, 81. 25 in 1897, and $l.9S in 1899.
Last spring the city elected Democratic
Mayor and Council, but the Mayor did not
assume Office until last fall, and the complete
renovation of the city government was not
completed until month ago. The retrench-
ment in expenditures, the abolition of some
Offices and the consolidation Of others, to-
gether with the receipt of back taxes from
national banks, has made reduction of the
tax rate to Sl67 possible. This reduction OF
81 cents from last year and of 5S cents COM
pared with that of 1898, must be very welcome
to tax payers. 1t will likely be some time
before Baltimore tries the experiment of Re-
publican rule again. /.

The Mckinley Administration may deny it,
but all circumstances indicate that the Ad-
miuistration is in alliance with England and
Japan. Resolutions expressing sympathy with
the South African republics in their unequal
struggle with Great Britain, sleep in commit
tee rooms at both ends of the Capitol; Eng
land was asked and consented to recede from
the treaty that gave her joint control over the
proposed Nicaragua Canal; and the United
States has sent four war ships to Japan, be-
cause Japan suspected Russia had designs on
Korea as a menace to her. The Navy De-
partment says this concentration of ships in
Japanese waters has no international signi6-
canoe, but this is regarded as a diplomatic
avaqinn -

At Cumberland, on Tuesday, Caroline v.
Elliott fled bill asking for divorce from
her husband. Edgar F. Elliott, druggist, Of
South Cumberland. She also asks an injunc-
ton to restrain her husband from disposing of
her property. They we're married in Alabama
in 1890, later lived in Baltimore and in W. Va,
going to Cumberland in 1896. Mrs. Elliott
says the store was purchased with her money
and her husband acted as manager, but, she
alleges, he is addicted to drinking and gamb-
ling and has been using the income of the
store, and in consequence she has been in
straitened circumstances. She charges that
last Friday he knocked her from one room to
another and on Saturday struck her with a
beer bottle and threatened her life, driving
her from the house. She charges that the
drug store is her own property. Mr.. Elliott
said Tuesday that he would file cross bill for
divorce on statutory grounds. Mrs. Elliott
was Miss Brown, daughter Of Joshua Brown,
who ran hotel at Reisterstown, Baltimore
county, later removing to Baltimore.

political Morality East and West.

While the investigation Of the use of money
in thu Montana senatorial contest create d
something of q sensation over the immense
sums expended, Frank A. Richardson, the
welI-known Washington correspondent OF the
Baltimore Sun, has set people to thinking by
stating that the Quay and Wannamaker ad-
herents spent million of dollars in the sena-
torial election-or failure to elect-in Penn
sylvania The people of the East are accus-
toned TO look upon the moral standard OF the
mining states and the far West in general as
of a lower standard than that of the East, but
a comparison of political methods shows a
low standard in both sections. creditable to
neither. As to Pennsylvania, the leader OF
the opponents of Quay poses as a particularly
high class christian. In Montana it has not
been asserted that any christians, real or al
legged, were engaged in the bribery connected
with the senatorial contest.

The Democrats carried Hagerstown at the
election last Monday, electing their candi-
date for Mayor by 4s5 majority, the largest
majority ever given candidate in the city.
The total vote cast was 2,67S. A proposition
that the city build an electric light plant was
carried by 1,21s majority. Every city should
own its electric light and gas plants, water
works and street railways. The city would
operate them for the benefit of the people
and not for profit, and there would be no in
Aated capital to pay dividends upon, as in the
case of private ownership.

The Filippinos have been given another
illustration of the benefcence of American
rule. Gen. Otis has suppressed a Manila
newspaper and imprisoned the editor. Free
speech is only allowable in the United States
not in our colonies And the Mckinley Ad-
min;stration, no doubt, would like TO have
some curtailment of the liberties of the great
dailies of Boston, New York, Philadelphia,
Chicago, Baltimore and other large cities,
which have been severely criticising the Ad-
ministraiion and the Republican Congress for
the acts of oppression toward Puerto Rico
and for generally discarding the Constitution.
