MONEY FOR THE EXPOSE.
TIONS.

Notwithstanding the great interest
manifested in the political matters en-
gaging the attention of the extra ses-
sion of the Legislature, efforts will be
made to secure appropriations for the
proper representation Of Maryland in
the Pan-A merican Exposition at Buf-
falo and in the Interstate and West
India Exposition Of Charleston, S. c..
Both President Hubncr, of the Senate.
and Speaker Latrobe, of the House,
have expressed themselves as being
favorable to the plan, and will do all
in their power to encourage it.
Undoubtedly the State would be
greatly benefited by proper repre-
sentation. Maryland needs advertis-
ing. Its attractions and advantages
are not as generally known as they
should be. The Western States and
even some Of the Southern States have
shown much more enterprise in this
direction. The representation of the
State should, however, be "proper.' -
1t should be creditahle, or not at all.
The appropriation should be liberal.
Governor Smith will exercise his usual
good judgment in the appointment of
the Commission, should it be left to
him.
We trust that the matter will be
pressed.

WASHINGTON, d. c., March 18th.
MR. EDIToR:-Senator Hannas project
for making the Senate a one-man body,
by the adoption of Reed rules, has been
postponed, but by no means abandoned
The kicking was so vigorous at even the
mention of the project that it was appar-
ent to Mr.. Hanna that the Senate would
be kept in extra session all summer, with
no certainty of success in the end, if the
attempt were made to put the project
through at this time. So it was decided
| to let it 90 over to the regular session, and
to spend the recess in pulling wires to
make voters for it. The adjournment of
the extra session of the Senate was hurried
| to prevent the growth of sentiment in
| favor Of a reorganization of the commit: :
| tees which would have deprived num-
| Der of Senators of some of the patronage
| they now control
Although the published news from Cuba
| indicates much kicking against the condi-
| tions laid down by Congress for the with
drawal of American authority, members
| of the administration claim to have secret
information which causes them to expect
| an early acceptance of the conditions by
| the Cubans. The rumored intention of
| the administration to send more troops to
Cuba is strongly denied in official circles.

to be whitewashing affair or is to get at
the real facts is not yet apparent. If it be
the latter, there are reasons for the belief
that sensational looting scheme of large
proportions will be uncovered.

SENATOR BRYAN ON THE
ELECTION BILL,

One OF The most forcible and signi-
ficant speeches delivered on the Elec-
tion Bill was that Of Senator Bryan,
of Baltimore city. He began by re-
pudiating the idea that those who ad-
vocated the bill, advocated fraud. The
Democratic senators were above being
used as tools.
There are many features in the bill
that are improvements upon the pres
ent law
He said: "The question put to an
aspirant now is: How much can you
shell out? Will not this bill promote
independent voting? The voter can
not rely upon the guidance of nose
to show him how to vote. There must
he guiding intelligence. The prime
purpose Of this bill is not to distranchise
illiterates. If that occurs it will lie
incidental and the fault of the voter
himself. If there is anything of which
We may feel alarmed it is Ignorance,
and anything which puts a premium
on intelligence merits our votes.
Republicans are just as ready to
resort to tricks as Democrats. Changes
to improve this bill have been suggest
ed and the Democrats adopted them.
The clause for the signature on the
registry is just as effective in the new
bill as in the old law. No man will
dare to decline to sign his name when
requested. This bill frees the employe
from the eye Of the corporation boss.
We have thousands of men who are
coerced in their votes by by corpora
tions. This bill will make them free
men.
''In 1899 over 100000 was spent
to elect Governor Smith, to overcome
100000 which was put up by rail-
road companies and others to elect
Governor Lowndes. II this law ac-
complishes only one thing-that is,
opportunity for young men-it will
mark an epoch in Maryland.
The Senator spoke of the method Of
distributing the ballots and boxes and
argued that it is complete. He said
that the names are not to be arranged
alphabetically, because it gives an
undue advantage to those whose names
begin with the first letters of the
alphabet and operates to the disad-
vantage Of others; a complaint which
has been made in Massachusetts,.
"1f l believed this law were I'M
constitutional he continued, 81 would
not vote for it. If l had to split from
my party, | would split, and no man
could make me vote for it. l have
obtained the opinion of one of :he
greatest constitutional lawyers Mary
land has ever produced and he says
tie law is constitutional. When this
bill comes before the Court of Appeals
l believe it will be upheld.
The remarks of the Senators on the
other side have been most unkind.
They have not hesitated to stand up
and say that we are controlled and
bossed. Such imputation must come
from the weakness of your cause. We
have all been brought under the
imputation. 1t has been charged that
the Governor convened the Legisla-
ture for fraudulent purpose. There
was never a more infamous charge.

GEN. HARRISON IS DEAD.

Benjamin Harrison, ex- President of the
| United States, died at his home in Indian
apolis at 445 o'clock "Wednesday after
noon without regaining consciousness.
His death was painless there being a
gradual sinking until the end came which
was marked by a single gasp for breath as
life departed from the body. The reia-
tives, with few exceptions. and several
of his old and tried friends were at the
former Presidents bedside when he pass
ed away.
None of General Harrison's children
were present at his death. Neither Col.
Russell Harrison nor Mrs. James r. Nc
Kee had reached that city, although both
were hurrying on their way to the bedside
of their dying parent as fast as steam
could carry them. Elizabeth, General
Harrison's little daughter, had been taken
from the sick room by her nurse before
the end came.
Gen. Harrison's wealth is rated by some
as high as half million dollars. Those
who are best informed about the eXPresi-
dents affairs, however, say he was worth
about $3.50, 1000 or $780, 0OO AT the time
he was elected President he was reputed
to have accumulated a fortune of $4,000
from his law practice, and this has been
doubled at least since that time. Of late
his practice, owing to his reputation as a
constitutional lawyer, was lucrative.
Many messages of coincidence were re-
ceived by the family. Among them was
the following, from ex-President Cleve
land, addressed to Mrs. Harrison

affliction which many millions share with

The funeral of General Harrison will
take place next Sunday afternoon at 3
o'clock. The services will be held in the
First Presbyterian Church, Indianapolis,
of which he was member for nearly so
years Rev. DR.. NJ. L. Haines, pastor of
the church, will have charge of the SER
vices.
The body of General Harrison will lie
in state in the rotunda of the State Capt.
tol all day tomorrow. The highest hon
ours which it is in the power of the State
of Indiana to pay will be given.
