proves that Missouri is secondary
consideration.
As national affair, there can be no
doubt of the mission of this new move
ment. For ten years the political
cranks of the country have been pull
ing at cross-purposes. There are a
considerable number of these indi-
yiduals; at one time they were strong
enough to usurp control of the Dem
ocratic party; but they feel that con-
troll slipping away from them and,
preferring to be factor rather than
a mere pest, they have decided to
form all the cranks under one banner.
That is the purpose of this new move
ment. 1t will afford soft place for
the cranks to light when the Democ-
racy finally kicks them out and when
the Populist party disintegrates.
They will make fuss for brief sea-
son, but it will soon be over. fit has
tens the final elimination of Bryan and
Organism it will serve a useful pur-
pose. That it will do so can hardly
be disputed, for among such com
bination of irrationals Mr.. Bryan will,
however much he may now deny con-
nection with the new movement,
come naturally to be the leader.

WITH William Jennings Bryan pre-
pairing to make a tour of the country
as the apostle of liberty, and Senator
Clay, of Georgia, stating that the
Democrats can only achieve success
by dropping all populism, the out
look for the Democratic party is not
full of serenity. For two successive
elections the Democratic party has
been more interested apparently in
smashing the gold element than in
serving the people. 1t is very proba-
BILE that several elections will now
witness an effort on the part of the
gold men in the Democratic party to
smash the silverites, the Republican
party, in the meanwhile, look ing af-
ter the national affairs. It's clear
case of there being no Democratic
party without Bryan and of there
being no party with Bryan.

ed change the State managers will
waste no time on the city. They will
look to the counties.
The Republicans in the city are
more interested in their organization
fight than in the general election to
follow. There appears to be an incli-
nation to fight all along the line. The
leaders say they cannot stop these
contests if they would, and would
not if they could. 1t is a healthy sign.
When it comes to selecting candidates
for the Legislature, however, they
propose to use their influence to Sc
cure the selection of only the best
equipped men.

Baltimore Tuesday again and take

altogether as represented to them
but were unable to solve the riddle.
The effect has been remarkable in
many sections of the county and has
succeeded in enlightening some who
were about to take the plunge. The
result has been that the chances of
the Allegany county candidates to re-
ceive the nominations and be elected
by the votes of Garrett county citi-
zens have fallen away below par.
Outside influence may be a good
thing in some sections of Maryland
but in the mountains of Garrett
county it will not down.

but it is none too early for Republic
cans to realize the necessity for vigi.
lance and preliminary work. With
proper effort Maryland can this fall
be shifted to the Republican column.

To the Editor Of the Republican.
In my communication to THE RE

my family prevented it.
And now before taking up the sub
ject in mind will refer to letter in

Republican" admit that in time
of peace his suggestions might meet
with the heartiest appreciation by the
majority of the Republican party in
the county. But at this particular
time, and coupled with the doubts
that shadow good advice coming
through any other than the regular
channel for Republican advice over
any other than the true name
of the writer, the suggestions must
lose their centripetal force, and as it
is the inherited privilege of every
voter in the county to attend the pri-
maries, it follows that we and not the
machine are in the fault. 1t is still
further the inherent privilege of any
qualified male citizen of the county
to seek Office at the disposition of the
voters and l presume if any of the
quartet and the unknown others re-
ferred to were seeking office they
would certainly have the nerve to an
nounce themselves, for according to
the scripture, those coming in any
other way than the open gate are
thieves and robbers, which epithets
belong to none of the four honored
and christian gentlemen mentioned,
neither presume to the unknown.
But enough of this. Let us get
down to facts. As | said in my first
letter, we are in the midst of difficulty
and to our State Assembly in 1902 we
must look for relief and a solution of
the problems, and who are better
| qualified to undertake the business
confronting us than those who par
| ticipated in the effort to secure JUS
tice to the people of our county and
the Republican institutions of the
State at the last regular and the
extra session. Hence | believe we
will make a great mistake by the
nomination of any other than Hon.
Robert A. Ravenscroft for the Senate.
| urge this without fear of censure;
not because our party lacks men
enough of brains and education who
could serve the people with equal in
telligence and success under different
circumstances, but from the fact of
his knowledge of and familiarity with
the duties to be performed, and l be-
lieve the voters of Garrett county are
too sensible and alert to allow their
minds to BE prejudiced against the
doctor for tiimsy reasons. Let us
once more forget factional feeling and
put our shoulders to the wheel and
help to roll it on to victory. have
no fear as to the other nominations.

Newspaper Frauds.

Non partisan" papers, edited by
partisans, are the most patent hum
bugs of the age. In commenting up
on public matters they start out non
partisan, but wind up partisan. They
are simply frauds. A partisan paper
is the more to be admired. 1t sacra-
fees patronage for principle. 1t is
more honest, for it does not play for
both sides, and does not pretend to
be anything than partisan. There is
nothing antagonistic to honesty in
being partisan, and there is every in
ducement to dishonesty in being non
partisan or Independent. The most
despicable object is partisan who
pretends to conduct a non-partisan
or independent paper, and then by
his acts endorses every principle and
policy which his party espouses.-

Foraker Sounds the Keynote.

Senator Joseph B. Foraker, is his
speech before the Ohio State Repub-
lican convention, has emphasized the
national character of the state cleo
ton in Ohio this fall. Speaking of
the administration of Governor
George K. Nash, he declared that it
had been so efficient that even Ohio
democrats could not complain and
no issue could be made of it. There
fore every vote cast in Ohio next
November would be either for or
against the administration of William
Mckinley, with that degree of GER
tainty as if he were the candidate.
The plea for a large Republican
vote in Ohio this year is based on the
necessity for continuation of the
present industrial conditions. Sena-
tor Foraker truly says: 1.-The achieve
ments of the past four years are still
in large measure incomplete and
insecure. We have unexampled pros
perity, but democratic wave would
blight it. We have added new luster
to our arms, and new glory to our
flag, but an application of democratic
politics would tarnish one and dim
the other. We have expanded our
limits, advanced our jurisdiction and
assumed new responsibilities, but
democratic ascendancy at this time
would mean abandonment, retreat
and national humiliation.
1t is not only the duty of Ohio
republicans, but of republicans
throughout the United States, Ma
ryland particularly, to give an en-
phatic vote of confidence to the
present national administration. The
issue that exists in Ohio is equally
prominent in Maryland. By COM
passing the defeat of the republican
party Arthur P. German would fain
return to the United States Senate.
Should his ambition be gratifed, no
more bitter foe to republican pros
perity and progress in all Christen-
dom could be found than he. Cor
man is for self alone, and while he
may pretend to have the better
interests of his state and party at
heart, his past record does not sus-
tain the pretense.

The Third Party Movement.

That was curious compound of
political irrationalism that gathered
in Kansas City the other day and
launched new third party move
ment on the troubled sea of politics.
Populists of all persuasions, Free Sill
yer Republicans, Socialists, Single
Takers and Bryan Democrats were in
attendance. Every folly known to
later-day politics was represested.
They seem to have been all on hand,
and that they were there with pur-
pose is demonstrated by the fact that
they took themselves seriously and
did actually organize a new party.
How it was possible for one combina-
ton to assimilate such widely varying
irrationalism is quite beyond compre-
hension.
This third party movement is pro-
claimed as being distinctly Missouri
affair; that it is primarily designed to
operate in the national field is plain
ly discernable. Its schedule of prin-
ciples proves that Missouri is far too
small for this new movement. Here
is what the new movement has set
out to accomplish:
Public ownership of all public util-
tiles, as railroads, telegraphs, sc.
While awaiting the legislation nee
essary to secure public ownership,
rigid control of freight and passen-
ger rates and severe penalties for re-
bates and other determinations by
railroads. Taxation of railroads and
other public utility corporations in
the same proportion as the value of
farm and other property.
Direct legislation by the initiative
and referendum to the end that the
people may initiate good legislation
and veto bad legislation.
Graduated income tax to the end
that wealth, which receives govern
ment protection, shall bear its lust
share of the cost of the government.
That whatsoever is used as money
shall be full legal tender, issued by
the general government in sufficient
volume for business purposes, and
that volume fixed in proportion to
population.
Just election laws throughout the
State.
Home rule for cities and abolition
OF the present system of using the po-
lice as standing army to carry pri-
mary elections in the interest of dis
honest politicians representing still
more dishonest special privilege cor
porations.
Election of United States Senators
by popular vote.
Excepting the last three these prin-
ciples are of an essentially national
character. They comprehend prob
lens which Missouri is incapable of
solving. The fact that they are given
precedence over local State questions
