November -, 1891.
Mr.. EDITOR lit is with no little sur
prise to the people of this State when
they read in the columns of the Baltimore
San the question of the speakership of
the next House. The only redeeming
feature in the claim is the excellence OF
the man for whom the San is making the
claim. All honor to Mr.. Straus. but il TO
one had done any more for him be-
fore the election than the Baltimore San,
he never would have been heard from
after the election. Now, for Baltimore
city to make any claim for the speaker
ship is preposterous, even though it pre-
sents so gifted and able man as MIR.
Straus for the place. Twenty thousand

negro rule. If you doubt it, consult the

business men knew this. They also knew
how 10 do their duty. They also knew
that the men upon The Democratic ticket

some computations of conscience, they
must bear their griefs alone. We deplore

malt tonic could be sold as medi-

if it is used IS beverage the caseis
quite different and the sale is prohibit
cd. 10 this special case the Governor
has replied that there is nothing in
the law to prevent the sale of malt
tonic as a medicine, but that when it
is sold as beverage it is liable to
seizure. T. be instructions have been

about year ago. The constables
ought to know their duty in this re-
spect, but complaints are received

Case of Miss Stone.
Columbia Evening Record. Oct. 8 b.

Columbia Evening Record. Oct. h.
It is sincerely to be hoped that
Miss Stone, the American missionary,
will be safely rescued from the Bul.
garian bandits who have her in
custoday, awaiting the payment of a
handsome ransom. President has
taken the matter in charge 40 far as
diplomacy is concerned, and it may
be accepted as fact that he will
leave nothing undone to bring about
her rescue. But he can only exer-
else moral influence, and canpot
make demand of either the Turkish
or Bulgarian governments that she
must be released. Neither # the
governments was responsible directly
for the outrage. and both seem to be
doing all in their power to secure the
safety and return of the missionary.
The Bulgarian government, it is
stated, has 5000 troops securing the
country in the hope that they can
capture the brigands and secure the
freedom of the lady. That is all that
government can do, and its action
cannot be too highly commended
We are sorry to cay that should q
similar crime have occurred in this
country, our government would not
dispicv one-half the zeal that the
little -pribeipality OF Bulgaria has to
right a wrong. 1t may be recalled
that during the past few years
foreign workmen have been ruth
lessly shot down and murdered and
little effort was made to bring the
perpetrators to justice. The protests
of foreign governments have prac
tically amounted to nothing, though
in rare instances indemnities have
been paid 1t seems, also, to be
well-accepted principle, in many OF
the Western states at least, that
Chiraman has no rights which any
body is bound to respect. Under
such circumstances, our government
could hardly demand anything con-
sistently from other governments
when those governments are not at
fault, and hence only moral suasion
can be used: In the meantime, the
amount demanded by the bandits is
being raised by private subscription.
New York, Oct. II "A cablegram
received in New York this morning
in answer to Inquiries concerning
measures taken il Bulgaria for the
rescue of Miss Stone, says: Brigands
are now in Turkish territory, but the
Bulgarian government is taking en-
ergetic measures to arrest brigands
in case there is an attempt to cross
the borders, at the same time care is
bsing taken not to endanger the life
of the captive. The message was
signed byPrince Bsbravitcb, perfect

pliance with a request from Wash
ington the search by Ottoman troops
for the abduc!ors of Miss Stone, the
American missit nary, has been
abandoned, it being feared that the
brigands would kill her should they
be closely pursued. Arrangements
are now being made to pay the ran
som 100000 demanded.
