they Forget.

Republican journals aud politicians are
quite rampant over the thought that .
change in the ballot law viii result in some
Negroes not being able Is vote.
They seem to forget, withoutthat, any law
for it, some thirty or forty thousand White
voters were denied the right to vote in this
State from 1861 to 1866.
They forget that White voters were
beaten, arrested without authority, put IN
foul prisons and kept upon poor and scanty
fare.
They forget that certain members OF the
Maryland Legislature were arrested upon
suspicion and before the body met, and
were carried from Fort to Fort. Some
contracted diseases from which they never
recovered.
They forget that the freedom OF the
press, guaranteed by the Constitution, was
denied and the freedom Of speech also.
They forget that some newspapers were
suppressed entirely and the editors sent
out Of the State, and in one instance an
editor was murdered and his Office de-
stroyed.
They forget that judge was dragged
from the bench and ministers OF the gospel
from their pulpits
They forget that Republican Congress
spent many weeks in an endeagor to pass
the last Force Bill, measure designed TO
place State elections, and registrations abb
solutely under control Of Republicans APP
pointed by Federal officials.
They would forget these and many more
matters, but they will not be allowed to for
get them. They will be brought TO their
notice frequently and forcibIy in this year
1901, and the generation since will be
told Of this party's doings that is now 50
much excited because change in the bal
lot law may make it impossible for some
illiterate Negroes to vote.
They will say that was in times OF ex-
element. So it was, but there was no
excuse for one-half the Radicals did, and
many thousand White voters are still NV
ing who well remember it all And ex-
citement cannot be cited az a palllatlon Tor
the attempt to pass Force Bill, not once
but twice. The first bill was defeated by
Randall, of Pennsylvania, and the second
by Senator German, of Maryland.
Excitement cannot be pleaded in exten-
uation of the theft of the Presidency in
1861, nor its purchase in 1880.
Excitement cannot be pleaded In ex-
tenuation of the theft of Senator belong
ing to the Eastern Shore of Maryland in
1896 and the ruthless overriding OF a law
that had been observed for century.
Excitement cannot be pleaded in ex-
tenuation of the false and unfair and I'M
Just Federal Census returns IN this State,
recently made.
Excitement cannot be pleaded in exten-
uation of well considered plan to colonize
this State with North Carolina and Vir
GINA Negroes in order that the Mudd-Mc
Comas machine and their successors may
control and misrule here indefinitely.
Excitement cannot be pleaded IN extern
uation of the expenditure of a huge cor
rupt;on fund in this State last year to elect
the Mckinley Hanna electors and six con-
gressmen.
Excitement, indeed Republican con-
duct from 1860 to 1866 was prompted by
hatred, malice and wickedness. Since, 1t
has been the result of greed for office and
political rotteness, with little malice
thrown in.

The Sentinel VS.. The Sentinel

The ADVOCATE has no disposition to put
our esteemed neighbor, the Sentinel in false
position-that Journal does that for itself. In
its issue of February 8 it had an article trying
to prove that Speaker Wilkinson and Senator
DIN Bryan were guilty of "official perjury, ;"
and wanted the States attorneys of Baltimore
city and Baltimore county to take cognizanee
of the matter and bring it to the notice OF
their respective grand juries, III order that
legal inquiries may be made concerning it..
The ADVOCATE ridiculed the idea that a Bal
timore county grand jury had any jurisdiction
in the matter, or any grand jury. and also
called the SentineI's attention to the fact that
Senator Dodson, Of Talbot county, a Repub-
can, served in the Senate last winter, without
question, while holding federal Office. 1t
was also pointed out that Senator Dick, of
Allegany, also Republican, and also holding
a FEDERAL Office, expected to attend the extra
session of the General Assembly as Senator.
Last week the Sentinel denied what it said
on February 9. To prove that it did, we quote
the Sentinel againt the Sentinel:
From the Sentinel Feb O. From the Sentinel Feb.23.
