A CARD.

LEosARDTowS, Nd, March 90, 1901.
Editors Beacon As I observe from
the accounts of the census frauds as pub
lished in the Baltimore and Washing
ton papers, that my name is connected
with the matter as having given wrong
advice upon which the enumeration acted,
in making fraudulent return, take
this means of saying that the report, so
far as my name is concerned, is absolute
ly false. The only advice / gave was
that the mortality schedule should con-
tain the names of all persons who had
died in the census year, that is, from
June list, 1890, to May 31st, 1900. For
this advice / quote from Director Mer-
RAMS book of instructions, Section 336,
Page 81. which is as follows -
Section 1886, Page 81. The mortality
schedule Form 1851 calls for return
of all persons who have died during the
census year, that Is, from June |, 1899,
to May 81, 1900, inclusive, and spaces
are provided on each schedule for the
entries concerning go persons, il the
schedule is completely filled. The in
quiries relating to the name, personal
description, nativity, and occupation of
the decedent are to be filled in accord
ancs with the instructions covering sim
liar inquiries on the population schedule,
but special instructions relating to the
cause of death and the physicians state.
ment, with other explanatory matter,
are printed on the schedule itself"
l may have expressed the opinion that
registered voters should be enumerated
where registered. My recollection on
this is not definite

TO THE PUBLIC.

The various daily papers of Washing
ton and Baltimore having reported me
as saying or intimating that Enoch B.
Abel, Clerk of the Circuit Court for St.
Mary's county, gave me wrongfuly ad-
vice as to my duties pertaining to the
enumeration of the Census for portion
of the Bird District of st. Mary's county,
for which | was enumerator, desire, in
justice to Dir. Abel to contradict gaid
report, and unhesitatingly to pronounce
1t as totally incorrect and absolutely
false, so far as the name of Mr.. Abel is
concerned, a1d to say further that the
reporters have grossly misrepresented
what | said, or intended. Mr.. AbelPs
advice to me was ever of the highest
order of rectitude, and he was particu-
larry careful to impress upon me the i'm
portance of complying strictly with all
instructions from the Census Director,
as contained in the book of instructions
as issued by the Department. / regard
him as gentleman of high moral prin-
ciples and integrity, and do not believe
that he would in the least indirect way,
countenance or advise any one to COM
init wrong OF illegal act. i
So far as the charge against myself is
concerned, my official returns of the
Census, when properly examined, will
undoubtedly disclose the fact that have
committed no wrong, nor done any act
that is violation of the law.

Editorial Correspondence ef the Beaco,
Letter From Annapolis.


DEAR BEAcoE.-Since nv last
letter the Census Bill has been
amended By the Senate and passed,
a. amended, By the House. The
Republicans voted against the Bill
and the Democrats for it. IL was
contended for awhile that it was
not necessary to make . re-enumer-
alton Of the entire State but the
Constitutional lawyers we're against
the contention and so Maryland is
TO have State Census. Enumer-
ators are to be appointed for each
election district or precinct ; they
are given Is days to do the work,
and will be paid q per diem OF So.
By exactly Constitutional ma.
jority the House passed IN order u
give its mem bers S25 of stationery.
This was accomplished By Mr.. VOL
finger, publican, Of Washington
county, who was at the clerks desk
when the roll was being called aud
noting that the measure needed but
one more vote, obtained recognition,
changed his vote aud gave the re-
CURED 46 to pass the order. Ivoted
against the order, and also against
the stamp order in Committe and
in the House because | thought the
amount too high and believed that
for 80 days, bat a third OF the
amount usually given for 90 days
should be allowed. But one Re-
publican, Mr. Biggs, of Hagers-
town, voted against the orders.
There is a lively contention in
the General Assembly over the Bal
timore Sewerage Bill and no man
can tell what the outcome will be.
1t is thought that the Bill will be
changed and passed, but in my
opinion the changes will have to
be considerable to placate the oppo-
sition to the measure. The City
Delegation 10 at odds over the mat
ter and when the House adjourned
Friday their differences seemed ir-
reconc:lable.
1t is considered certain that the
Extraordinary Session will close
Wednesday next.
During odd moments and when
not engaged in the House and in
Committee l have gone into the
Senate Chamber and watched the
fight there. The commended forces
have certainly been ably led. Sen
ator Orothers, of Cecil, is the Dem
ocratic leader and in Stevenson A.
Williams, Republican, of Hartford,
he has foeman worthy of his steel.
Mr.. Williams is q game fighter and
10 man of such pronounced abili-
ty and force of character as to chal-
lenge the admiration of ell and to
merit the respect aud esteem of
friend and foe.
While in Washington / met Dan
lei O. Hammett, Esqr., formerly of
Leonardtown, and was, OF course,
delighted to see him. Though now
q city man he has lost none of his
friendliness for his country friends
and his laugh still has the old ring
to it. Mrs. Hammett is under the
doctors care. Miss Hammett is
very well.
DR.. Lovejoy. well known
to many in st. Mary's died at his
home in Washington, Monday,
March 18th, instant. He was a
good man and one OF the finest
physicians in the District.
The Census developments have
By no means been pleasant reading
for st. MarY's countians. They
have brought the old county much
unenviable notoriety.
