Desperate Campaign Tricks.
rom the PhiladeIDhfa Press

The Maryland democrats have evidently
become convinced that a strict compliance
with the terms of the election law they
passed at the extra session of the legisla-
ture will not aid them much in tomorrow's
election. They hoped that the colored IL
llterate voters would be unable to mark
the ballot correctly and would consequently
be disfranchised. But the republicans had
overcome this obstacle largely by the thor
oEgh manner in which they instructed their
flliterates in the art Of voting. Now, how
ever, the democrats are trying new trick
Instead of printing the ballots in uniform
style they have had them arranged in all
sorts of shapes. SO as to make any syste
matte instruction useless. The independent
Baltimore News prints full page of specI.
mems Of these ballots, no two of which are
alike. In some of them no capital letters
are used in spelling proper names and
names of parties. while others are jumhie
which will need the skill of a Philadeiphia
lawyer to vote correctly. The party which
has to resort to such tricks must be in des
perate straits and deserves to be defeated

In Canadian Eyes.

The conditions in New York and in Phia-
delphia are alike. There may be said to be
species of rivalry between them as 20
which has the more corrupt city govern
ment. In New York 1t is nominaIIy demo-
cratic In Philadelphia, republicanism rules.
In both the believers In public morality and
honest government permitted evil to get
control because it was too much trouble to
fight 1t. Then corruption gradually en-
trenched itself until its POSITION became
well-nigh impregnable. Flagrant WONG
doing Is exposed, glaring corruption pointed
out and demoralizing cynicism prevails,
until nothing short of almost a revolution
airy upheaval will throw off the letters of
corruption. Has such an upheaval now
come upon New York, is the question the
world Is asking as 1t looks toward the COM
ing election,

A Salvage Corp. Needed.

In the news reports of a fire In the busi-
ness district last week mention was made
of the considerable damage to stock by
water, in consequence of the lack of SAL
wage devices. This calls attention pointedly
to the need here of an organization such as
is found in almost every other large city.
The practice is for the fire underwriters of
the city to contribute toward the mainte-
nance of corp of salvers, whose duty Is
to hasten to each fire and take precautions
to protect stock and fixtures from damage

Our Mineral Resources.

The article ON the mines of
Idaho county, published elsewhere
in this issue, was first published in
the special edition Of the Boise
Capital News, in grand special
edition gotten out for the benefit
of the late International Mining
Congress. Eight thousand copies
of this special edition were pub
lished nearly the whole of which
were subscribed for by the attend
ing delegates from all parts of the
world. and the effect is bound to
be beneficial, not only in attract
ing special attention OF mining
men to the mineral resources OF
Idaho county, but to the other
dormant resources in this COM
monwealth which are only await
ing the magic touch of labor and
capital to make the state of Idaho
proGta BILE sphere for the inv. ST.
ment of the idle capital Of the
county which is ever seeking new
fields for development and exploi-
tation.
The special edition of the Capt.
tai News comprised Is pages OF
descriptive matter gotten up ex-
pressly for this edition, illustrate
by magnificent half-tone cuts OF
men and scenes mentioned in the
text, and it cannot fail to be an
eye-opener to the denizens of the
eastern states, too many of whom
have but the vaguest ideas of the
immense possibilities existing here
The edition is highly creditable tc
the proprietors of the Capital News
the leading democratic newspaper
of the state. and which is fast at
tanning a prestige and circulation
which willr"soon' place it in thu
very first place AZ the distinctively
leading paper of the state.

of the mineral resources of thi

the acts of the agents OF govern

This shibolith Of old Hickory's

It breathes life aud energy in the
