The Baltimore County union. [volume] (Towsontown, Md.) 1865-1909, 1900-11-10

In A newspaper interview in Washington on
the 10Th of October George Wellington, Mary
lands apostate Senator said
II believe that every State south of Mason
and Dixon's Line will be for Bryan. Ken
lucky will unquestiOnably be for the DEM
ocratic candidate, and Maryland and Della
ware will be carried for him. The one State
below the line about which there will be any
question is West Virginia, and, as matters
look now, that will be found in the Democratic
column. New York State will also be carried
by the Nebraskan. In the West Mr. Bryan
will carry every state he carried before, ex-
cept Washington, which, / understand, will
be against him. There is hard fight in South
Dakota, but 1 think it will be won by us. In
diana will go Democratic this time. Michi-
gan, in my opinion, will be Democratic.
From what know of Ohio, think the
President will lose his own State. Illinois
is very close, but the chances favor Bryann."
Not single prediction made by this mser-
able wind bag came true. He is now buried
politically and will never be heard of again.
So be it with all traitors

man who will thoroughly renovate and i'm
prove it and open it next year as irst-cass

SOME OF the leading women of Philadelphia
have organized the Civic and Legal Educational
League the object being to offer to women an OPP
portunity to become acquainted with the prac-
teal side of the law in such way as to enable
them to understand something of the care of
property, both personal and real. 1t is also
intended to furnish knowledge of national,
State and municipal governments, as exem-
plified in their own country, State and city.
1t will offer brief survey of the present legal
status of single and married women.
IT SEEMS that John Sherman has left $4,000
to pay for biography. He made mistake.
No public man who has his life written under
such circumstances will make his memory
more dear or more firmly establish his works.
The lives Of Buchanan, Tilden, Blaine have
all been failures, for the very cause Sherman
has courted-a work to be written by pam
egyrist for price. In the next hundred years
some Macaulay will arise to portray the great
characters of our civil conflict, and then they
will have fair and picturesque setting
A FEW days ago black bass weighing twelve
pounds was "gigged' in the Potomac, near
Hancock, Md. This is said to be the largest
bass ever taken in that river and it is said the
man who caught it will claim the reward of
81 900 offered by the Woodmont Rod and Gun
Club for bass weighing ten pounds caught in
the Potomac. A carp weighing thirty eight
pounds was speared by the same man who
caught the big bass.
