should object TO going bodily into the
Democratic party. and prefer 60 fo-m
a separate organization. Eeyolts with
in a party usually begin this way. But
when men have thus taken the first
step. the next one comes much more
easily. Upon the face Of the situation
it appears that the most effective mole
Of procedure would be for the disaTeet-
ed Republicans TO join the Democratic
party. because in such case each vote
Withdrawn from the regular RepuJli-
can candidates and cast FOR their op-
ponents would count two. But against
this il must be considered that many
Republicans would probably join an in
dependent party who would not enter
into full fellowship with one against
which they have been fighting all their
lives In this campaign, however, the
votes will count foI the same candi-
dates. although they will be Tailed up
separately.
From this distance il looks as If the
Democrats are starting of well Not
only have they accepted the Union can
didate for treasurer, but they have
thrown out those members Of the State
committee who have been aiding tie
Quay ring in its nefarious work. and
substituting in their places some Of the
best Democrats in the State. The fu-
sion ticket ought TO win. but that viii

THE ROAD NOT TO BE SOLD.
Western Maryland Directors said to
Have Reached a Decision.

BALTIMORE. oct "a subcommittee
N the city directors Of the Western Mary
and Railroad Company yesterday after
noon considered the report 20 be made %
those directors prior TO the annual meet
ing Of the company. which is to be held
next Wednesday afternoon Il is under
stood from authoritative sources that
there Is no idea among the directors Of
parting with the property at the present
time, that no bid has been submitted or
IS likely 20 be made for il now; that there
has been talk of the possibility OF a bid
from somewhere. but nothing tangible
has developed to show that anyone con-
templates the acquisition Of the city's in
terest- In the opinion Of one member of
the board the talk about bids is nothing
more or less than the outcome Of efforts
by Would-be promoters who. hoping 90
md that the city would sell. are endeav-
sring 90 op=n up negotiations in the ex-
pectation Of making a good commission
If "a deal is consummated.
There are, il appears. some very impor-
tant points 70 be considered in connection
with a sale. One Of these is the possi-
oiiity of lawsuits to protect the issues Of
city securities made on behalf Of the
Western Maryland. Should the city sell
trrrStS upon the railroad bonds held by
x Stil remain unpaid. a foreclosure To-
compel payment thereof would necessarily
wipe out those bonds which are held as
security for the city stock issued years
ago TO aid the road when IL was Ia finan-
cial straits. such foreclosure would be
followed, ii is stated, by legal proceedings
TO determine whether the value or the city
stock had been impaired and whether the
line was not still bound 20 maintain its
obligation in consideration OF the assist
ance extended IN the past
The directors are said % have under ad-
visemeut a proposition suggested some
time $50, that additional StOciSof the rail-
road be issued 20 the municipality TO wipe
out the Indebtedness in the shape Of back
interest. a member OF the board was ask
ed yesterday afternoon whether this was
true and he replied that he could not say
anything about the matter The city Cl-
rectors are expected 70 meet again soon
to receive the report OF the committee.
Until then dt least memD Ders OF the board
refuse 10 talk One OF them said yester-
day that he was in favor Of making pub
lie the entire situation I'm regard 90 the
city relations with the road, SO that the
taxpayers, who are most interested in it.
might understand all the questions be-
fore them.
All the directors display a feeling Of
satisfaction concerning the financial con-
diti0n Of the road IL is pointed out how
ever, that the continued discussion ~ the
the reason that it may create an impress
sion that the CITY Is anxious 90 sell cut
On the contrary, there Is. in the opinion
Of conservative members Of the board.
every reason why the city should holt on
now that its relations with the road have
become so much more satisfactory than
they were. At least it should not seek
70 market its holdings
