The strongest argument urged by
ad vocatas Of uniform series of school
books for the State, is the allegation
that books in use under the present
system are sold at lower rates else
where. II this is SO, all that is neces-
sary is for teachers to send 10 the
cheaper markets for the books REQUIRED
by their classes. This plan will soon
cure the local evil If such discrimi na-
tion exists.

markets, and any publisher can be
prosecuted for extortion who discrimi-
mates in these matters Ex-

COUNTY TREASURES.

i The expected conference between a
number of Southern Maryland Democrats
and the Democratic members of the State
Senate was held Wednesday night in the
Senate Chamber, beginning at o'clock
and lasting for two and one half hours.
When the conference was concluded
the following account was given odt:
'Fillmore Beali acted as chairman and
| Robert Moss secretary of the meeting.
Ex-senator Carrico, of Charles county,
! was the first speaker, and said the tax
payers there wanted change of affairs.
They demanded legislation giving the
county a new treasurer and new road
board that would properly manage ex-
| penditures.
John H. MITCHELL of the same county,
followed, saying that Southern Maryland
| was under control of persons who denied
to the taxpayers any right in the manage
ment of their affairs. He claimed that
| the legislators from Charles county were
| elected by 1000 negroes and 400 white
men, whom they hardly represented, but
were controlled by one boss.
John B. Gray, of Calvert, declared
that Il similar condition of affairs existed
in his county, and requested the passage
of bill making the county treasurer APP
pointed by the Governor and also road
| commissioners.
| "Fredcricll Sasscer, editor of the Prince
Georges ENQUIRER, asked for the pas
sage of an act placing control Of the pub
lie roads in the hands Of taxpayers and
away from politicians.
President Hubner and Senators Boulc,
Peter, Moses, Rohrback and Crothcrs and
Delegates Knott and Pattison expressed
sympathy with the demands of Southern
Maryland and indicated their readiness to
do whatever they could to extend aid
During the conference there was pass
ing reference to the suggested change IN
the form of ballot used at elections, Sc
as to practically exclude illiterate voters
from exercising the right of franchise, but
this matter was not discussed, nearly all
of the Southern Maryland representatives
being opposed to talking along that line
at present.
| The gentlemen who appeared before
the Senators from this county were: Fill
more Beall and a T. Robinson, of the
State Central Committee; Ex- Senator w
D. Bowie, Frederick Sasscer and John P
Turner.
At the preliminary conference held at
the Carrollton Hotel this county was rep
resented by Charles H. Stanley. James G
Rogers, Joseph S. Wilson, John S. Raw
lings and Benjamin D. Stevens, in add
ton to the others.
All those who were present expressed
themselves as being well satisfied with
their reception by the Senators, and sale
that bills would be drafted and introduced
to accomplish the ends desired. Theil
main object is to have county treasurer:
and road commissioners appointed by the
Governor in order to exercise contro
over expenditures, which are now made
upon the sole responsibility of the county
| commissioners.

THE KENTUCKY TRAGEDY

The shooting of G oeLcl, of Kentucky,
on Tuesday was unfortunate for many
reasons. The political excitement in
that State was already at high pitch,
and this event is likely TO add to the
trouble. Goebel was wrong in attempt
ing, through the cooperation of par
tisan majority in the Legislature, to
GUST the governor returned as elected
but the act of the assassin cannot be
justified upon any grounds.
Fear is entertained that the situa-
ton may become such that President
Mckinley will be induced to use Fed
eral interference. This ought not to
be unless the State authorities are un-
able to preserve order The Southern
people have had a sad. experience with
such attempts to regulate their home
affairs, and the sending of troops to
Kentucky by the National authorities
may intensity the trouble.
In a crisis, like the one now existing
the exercise Of wisdom and discretion
on the part of those most deeply con-
cerned, will lead soonest to happy
solution of the difficulty.

s. orr OF THE MAINE.

The New York Herald Sunday printed
a three-page story giving what purport
to be detailed account of the destruction
of the United States battleship Maine,
with 256 men, in Havana harbor on the
night of February 10TH 1898
1t is to the effect that the warship was
destroyed by mine laid and exploded
under the direction of Il Spanish lieuten-
ant, who acted in general way under in
structions from superiors.
The story was furnished 10y Eduard JOS
dc Martinez, who says that he was Span
ish secret scry ice agent in before the
Spanish American War. H,npN lives Il.
Gordon, Ala.
According to the story of Martinez sup
ported by an iiiIavit and by alleged docu-
ments, he and Senior Mendoza, another
man in the Spanish secret service, were
sent to Havana in 1897. departing from
Cadz December Goth, of that year, and ar
irving in Havana January 10Th, 1873.
They bore dispatches from the Duke de
ltlO, Minister Ol w ar, 10 baplalH btEcfdl
Blanco, of Cuba, instructing him to detail
engineers and officials to carry out Il plan
of harbor mining at Havana prepared by
Captain Narterli, of the engineer corps of
the Spanish army. Details of this plan
were also brought 10y the secret service
agents.
Pursuant to these instructions Captain
E. of the Spanish regular troops, was
ordered by General Blanco to furnish the
necessary men, and the wolk was done
under the direction of Lieutenant E.
c., who had been recommended for it
by Captain Narterli Mines, four in num-
Der, were laid in Havana harbor near the

loaded with Sd pou ads of wet gulcotton,
was anchored on the night of Fcbrual Y
14th by Spanish diver, Oriaquando, aided
by force of Spanish soldiers under the
direction of Lieutenant c., and work
ing from steam launch.
The torpedo was fitted with contact
by tie swinging of the vessel, and was also
given electrical connection with the Ha-
vana Customhouse. BY an ingenious
mechanism the torpedo circuit was con-

nected in firing well in the customhouse
with Fuerza Castle. The pressure of ar
electric button in the castle would explode
the torpedo, or mine, which was anchored
under the Maine.
Lieutenant c. stationed himself at
the customhouse and gave order that the
sentry at FuerZa Castle should report"
to the customhouse on a signal from dis
patch boat which Lieutenant C-was to
send down the harbor. The innocent SEN
try in ''reporting" would touch the key
which exploded the torpedo aHi Low up
the Maine.
The warship swung into position on the
night of February 18TH The signal was
given to the sentry, who touched the key,
and the Maine was destroyed-so the story

Senior MENDOZA returned to Spain, and
Martinez, who had married an American
wife, mace his way To Alabama.
Martinez saws that this was the last of
three attempts made by Lieutenant c.
to blow up the Maine. The first was made
January 25th with an automobile torpedo
as the warship entered the harbor. The
missile missed its mark and was beached
An attempt to explode mine under the
vessel February 18th failed, because, it is
thought of defective elt ctrical connections
The story of Martinez is discredted by
Commander Wainwright, former execu-
tive officer of the Maine, and by Chief
Wilkie, of the secret service, both of whom
had an opportunity to cross-examine the
Spaniard.
Martinez shows apparently authentic
copies of dispatches and instructions from
the Duke de Rio to Gencfal Blanco His
story connects no high Spanish official

it show that the blowing up of the Maine

election pledges by the Democratic
party. 1t was a significant victory

and marks the beginning OF a new era
in tue political nagement of State
and municipal affairs.
