issue, shows why, in spite of some short
comings and failures, the year has been,
| from an agricultural point of view, an
extraordinary one. There was. indeed, Il
shortage in the corn crop. which caused
loss to many farmers; but there was COM
pcnSation in the large crop of wheat.
There was also Il smaller crop than usual
of potatoes. but here good fortune comes
in the suse of i'll, for this never-failing
accompaniment of the American dinner
brought large prices. The wheat crop
brought S15O,00O,000 more than the crop
of the preceding year. and the total value
of farm products was greater by $780,
600, 900 than that of 1900 The Orange
Judd Farmer gives further interesting
figures confirming these conditions. Go
ing back to 1896. it shows that nine
staple crops in the United States are
worth $7O00OO,O 900 moro than they were
at that time. \ comparison is also made
between the output of the last five years
and that of the preceding term of the
same length. The gain to the cotton
growers is S4O0,0OO.OoO. and the increase
in the exports of agricultural products
nearly S4OO.OOO.O 900. The gain in cereals
wheat, corn, oats, harley and rye
about 81 .000000.0OO over that of those
products in the five preceding years.

HOW THE LEGISLATURES WAS
WON.

cepted as reliable, Governor John
Walter Smith processes to believe.
that he is perfectly satisfied with
suits of last weeks election, are to be
accepted as vindcation of its fairness
and honesty.
Now. if the Governor. will be frank
enough to admit, that the purpose of the
| law. was to secure by fair means or foul
majority in the next legislature, GER
tainly from this standpoint. the law is
an admirable one. for while the fact
may be that his party has secured control
of the LEGISLATURE. il is no less the fact
| that it has not elected Il majority of its
members.
\ majority has simply been counted
| in.
Governor Smith knows this. us well as
every other citizen of the State, who has
| read the election returns from onc-half
| the counties of the State
Now in contrast to this self compln-
cent opinion of Governor Smith as to the
excellent working of the present election
law, we ask the readers of the Wing"
to consider the statement of Mr. Philips
Lee GoldShorough, Chairman of the Re.
publican State Central Committee, adj
| dressed to the citizens of Maryland. in
! viii h" charges that gross frauds We're
committed 10y Democrats throughout the
| State ut the recent election.
He says that the final act in the cleo
| ton conspiracy, which began with the
calling of the extra Legislative session
| last winter. was the dsfranchisemcnt of
1000 honest voters on November 9th,
| by having their ballots fraudulcntly cast
out. Hundreds of these ballots, he says,
| were declared void because of printers
| marks placed upon them before the
| tickets were in the hands of the voters
Mr.. GoldsborouEh names the steps in
| the conspiracy. whose outcome was the
| disfranchiSrmcnt of thousands of voters.
| They We're the calling of the extra Scs-
| SlOn, tnc passing OF the census law rs
| Democratic polling scheme: the striking
of voters names from the registration
lists: giving printing Of ballots into tn"
hands of Il single Democratic supervisor
of election: failure to place the correct
| party appcllation ON the ballots: dis
| figurcmrnt of the ballots in printing
them; the throwing out of ballots with
any marks upon them.
| BY such measures. Mr.. GoldSborough
says. - or 80 Republicans elected to the
General Assembly w"r" counted out.
| These are serious charges made by tn"
| Republican Chairman. but they are no
less true. because they are serious.
The petty tricks rcsorted to by the
desperate Machine" leaders, and the I'M
blushing violations of law. practiccd by
sworn officers of the law in som" counties
of the State before election day, are
known to all the people.
The Legislature has been won by the
barc-faccd theft of enough counties to
control it.
This is the simple fact, and the whole
story of it, which Governor Smith knows,
and of which he in common with every
srlf-rcSpecting Democrat. must in his
heart h" thoroughly ashamed.

THE CECIL COUNTY VOTE.


~ of THE Wing" the total regis
tered vote of the State is 213.
143, while the vote cast in
Tuesday, the 9th inst. was only l92.oS6.
or difference of Sl.051. between the
registered vote and that actually return
ed as cast.
or this S1,051 votes. the Republicans
compute, that 10000 were rejected bal
lots, of which fully $1,000 were Repuhli-
can votes.
As illustrating the result of this cleo
ton. as affected by the trick ballot re-
sorted to by the Democratic leaders, the
figures for Cecil county are quite rs in
structive as suggestive.
The total registered vote of Cecil
county, white and colorcd, is 6,190.
or this aggregate registered vote of the
county, only Il total of 1910 votes were
returned as cast. showing deficiency Of
1850 votes.
Deducting from this deficiency of $50
votes, twenty per cent. of it as repre-
senting the Prohibition vote. and the
stay-at-homc vote, and we still have Il
balance of 1,504 votes unaccounted for
in the official returns.
How can this deficiency be reasonably
explained?
What proportion of this deficiency Of
ballots, We're rejected Republican bal
lots, and what proportion of them were
Democratic?
What proportion Of Republican reject
ed ballots were legally rejected, and
what number of them was illegally re-
jccted?
The "Whig" makes no charge of off
cial dishonesty against any election
judge in Cecil county.
We believe elections have been honestly
and fairly conducted in Cecil. and til"
ballots of her voters have been fairly
counted and honestly returned.
But here is an unusual deficiency If
votes, which if computed as Rcpuhli-
cans. are testing the relative proper
tons Of Republican and Democratic
voters DISTINGUISHED in other counties oe
the State through the trick ballot put
upon them. would show three fourthS of
fifteen hundred votes. or about one thous-
and votes rejected for som" reason nm
known to the great body of the people
of the county. OF this number probably
thrpc-tifthS or between five and six hund.
red votes were Republican votes. re-
jcctcd for various reasons only to be
guessed ut.
Hence the necessity for Il judicial in
vcStigation of the returns. and IA re-
count Of the ballots.
Let us have the light turned on it.
Let the people of the county see Just
how many Democrats. who can't read >.
write, and how ilitcrate Republicans
lost their ballots through improper mark
ing of them. under this new election law,
by which, the Democratic Managers
