A GLORIOUS VICTORY ELECT
ALL BUT CITY REGISTER.

The election on Tuesday last was
quiet and orderly in every respect.
There was no difficulty experienced in
voting under the new ballot law.
Republicans in many cases expressed
their surprise and even coutended that
it should be far more stringent in order
that all should have a more intelligent
method of deciding great public ques-
tions. The judges and clerks of cleo
ton were absolutely fair and impartial
in their decisions. Every latitude was
given at the first trial of the new law.
To the Democratic ward managers
great credit must be given for the
efforts they made to harmonic all
elements of their party. Their active
work on the day of election was most
effective and whilst some Republicans
may have declined at the last moment
to vote for Democratic candidates,
owing to the slip-up the Republican
managers made in forcing a State issue
upon US, some Republicans did, nevt r
theless, vote with us on Tuesday last.
The terrors of the election law are not
near rs horrible as have teen paint d
by Republican leaders The Demo
cratic illiterates are not denouncing
their party. They know full we'll this
measure was not directed at them. If
Democrats who always stir up strife in
our own ranks would accept party
management, try to build up and not
be everastingly tearing down and de-
stroyiug, there would be a general ac-
ceptanee Of this or a better measure as
best for the government of our city, eur
county and cur State by the white
men Of Maryland.
The Democrats have won a great
fight We now have a Democratic
Mayor and will have an entire Demo
craic police force, Water Rent Col
lector, Market Master, Janitor TO
our City Hall and numerous other
positions Our Board of Aldermen
are first-class men, Our only regret is
that Prof Shepherd was lost in the
great fight Mr. Gittinger, who has
been in public Office all his life, was
saved by his Democratic friends. Mr..
Shepherd was sacrificed and other
Democrats on the ticket may possibly
have been voted for on the swap.
There has been a cry among Democrats
for a new deal yet here was a man
who never held any Office and was as
true and as loyal as possible to his
party, sacrificed by Democrats in
order that a gentleman who has been
in office over thirty yeas might con
tinue for three years more Altogether
our fight was grand one in every
particular; now for the redemption OF
promises for good order iu our city.
Thanks are due to some Republicans
for standing by our rominees and
regret that Democrats in some in.
stances did not do the same.

SAYS this weeks Examiner: "The
Republicans will contest the election.
They claim that the ballots were rot
printed according to the provisions of
the law The nominations were adj
vertised and after the names of the
Democratic candidates were published
with the word Democrat after them
they were printed on the ballots fol-
lowed by the word Democratic. That
made the two names, Democratic and
Republican Of the same length and
was confusing to the illiterates."

as this. Contest, gentlemen, and Joy

FOREIGN THRIFT.

The economies practiced by very
many of our foreign born citizens when
they first begin life in this country
seem very queer and strange to us.
These methods are the inevitable out
growth of their hard conditions in the
mother country, fastened into life hab-
its. with the result that when applied
to American conditions a singular de
gree of financial prosperity is insured
to these people. While some of these
practices are really penny wise and
pound foolish" when applied here and
are in time somewhat modified, still
the primary idea of thrift, saving and
economy is never entirely obliterated
until the third generation, when their
progeny lets things go wide open just
like Il native born American. The wo-
men of the first importation never get
over the notion of working in the
fields. of gathering the brushwood for
the kitchen fire and Of working the
family garden just as they used to in
the little plot which served as a gar
den in the fatherland. The average
American farm needs nothing worse
than liberal application of some Of
these old fashioned and foreign ideas
Of economy and saving, and this is not
implying that American women should
do aught on the farm than care for the
form homo
No one thing is palmer than this
men owning good farm lands had much
better hang on to them than let go of
them. Such lands are the safest and
best investment for money there is to
be found today.
The first of our northern birds to nest
in the spring, always excepting the
English sparrow, is the road lark. We
have found its nests, with young birds
in them, when the snowdrifts were still
piled up in the highways.
We are asked by young reader why
1T is that the birds which migrate to
the south to spend the winter do not
breed there, where it is summer time
all winter long. No one can tell. They
might. but they don't. We are glad
that they don't.

of bacon hog would become under corn
