Fraudulent Railroad Tickets.

The State authorities record yester-
day what is said to be the first convic-
ton for ticket forgery ever obtained
in Cook county. Frank l.. Rice and
Jacob Wolf were the defendants found
guilty, the penalty being imprison-
ment in the penitentiary, under the
indeterminate law, from one to four
teen years. Rice is said to be a
member of the ticket brokerage firm
of Allardt & Co., 1856 Clark street, and
suspicion was directed toward him in
peculiar way. Wolf was employed
as an engraver in Detroit, Mich.
Rice hired Wolf to make plates of
certain Western roads which would
be copies of tickets in use. VOLTS
Detroit employer discovered what was
being done and the Western Passenger
Association was informed and investi-
gated the matter, securing the ev-
idence which led to conviction.
"About this time forged tickets of
several western ROADS were being
placed on the market. They were
traced to Rice, and on July &c the
authorities searched the office of the
brokers at 1856 Clark street, and ar
rested Rice. Henry J. Allardt, al
legged partner of Rice and witness in
his behalf, was instructed to bring in
record book of the brokerage COM
pany. He failed to do SO, and yester-
day Judge Kavanaugh informed at
torneys for the defence that they must
have the man in court to morrow
morning to show cause why he should
not be fined for contempt. Chicago

Oh, DEMOCRACY, what crimes have
been committed in thy name
What shameful sins and wrongs has
humanity suffered at thy hands
Thou hast betrayed the innocent,
oppressed the weak and scourged the
strong-all in the name of liberty
Could the Sage of Monticello burst
the cerements of the grave, stalk
forth sheeted and shrouded and meet
those puny pigmies who have stolen
his raiment and parted his garments,
he could not recognize trace of De-
mocracy in these craven towards who
are now feasting and fattening upon
the yitals of the great party which
he formed and led SO wisely and so
well.
Shades OF the stalwart Jackson who
fought tyranny and dishonesty at all
times in every form and shape, what
would that grim, honest, sturdy war
rior and statesman say to see this
rotten crowd who have robbed the
treasury of the State, degraded our
people, debauched our schools, stolen
our rights and finally, under the form
of this shamful bastard ballot law,
robbed 10000 honest men of their
votes in Maryland, my Maryland!

and appreciation to our speakers.

and appreciation to our speakers.
Mr.. Chas. A. Ashby, our bright and
energetic candidate for House of Del
egates, presided, introducing our
speakers with appropriate remarks.
He is very popular among all classes;
every one has kindly word for him,
deserved by his genial and gentle
manner. The innovation of the occa-
sion was the election of Miss Eta
Frantz as secretary of the meeting.
This handsome and intelligent lady
did the honors and performed the du-
ties of the position with unusual
grace and dignity. This evidences
the progressiveness of Crellin. The
chief industry of this vicinity is lum-
bering. One of the largest mills in
the county is here located. The cit
liens are industrious, intelligent and
prosperous. The ladies bright, pretty
and accomplished. We will always
praise and long remember the good
people of Crellin.
MIR. Heindel opened with graceful
speech, pleasing the people with a
number of well told anecdotes.
Senator Ravenscroft's speech was
well received. He thoroughly dis
cussed the State issues, dwelling par
ticularly upon the shameful legisla-
ton of the late extra session. His
arraignment of the Democratic lead
ers was particularly strong and effect
i've. He held his audience with him
from the start and closed amidst
great applause.
Mr.. Ed. H. Sincell followed. He is
well and widely known, a veteran
campaigner, good lawyer and force
full speaker. He kept the audience
in fine humor, delivering an effective
speech.
Hon. P. E. Finzell spent part of the
day in Crellin in company with our
hustler Mr.. Maffett, candidate for
Sheriff. They made many friends
and are unbounded in their praise of
the hospitality of the people.
The meeting was splendid success.

SCHOOLS AND SPECTACLES.

Schools to teach voters how to cast
their ballots, and spectacles for those
whose eyes are not as good as they
used to be, are two of the novelties of
the Maryland campaign. Both are
perfectly legitimate, and have been
brought into practice and use by the
very remarkable ticket which was
made possible by The queer work of
the extra session of the Maryland leg
islature, held last spring. A glance
at the sample ballot will show how
intricate thing it is, how pulling
to every voter, no matter how well
educated he may be. To man of
limited education is it going to prove
a terror, and unless the Judges of
election receive instructions far diff
ferent from those yet given them, a
very considerable number of the bal
lots cast at the coming election will
be thrown out as invalidated by I'M
intentional and wholly excusable
errors on the part of the voters.
1t is the hope of preventing errors
OF this sort that the schools of voters,
with their mock elections, have been
started, and they are by no means
confined to the Republicans. Demo
Gratis have resorted to them, as they
lind that large number of their own
supporters are very chary about the
ticket, very uncertain of their ability
to make the cross-marks in the right
place. The situation would be conf
cal were it not for the outrageous and
objectionable wrong such a method
OF voting infiicts upon large number
OF the most substantial and intelli
gent voters of the State. 1t is going
to keep from the polls hundreds, if
not thousands, of such men, who,
though not scholars, are useful mem
bers of the community, and who
have right to demand and to re ceiye
better treatment than they are now
receiving at the hands of those who
unfortunately have again come into
control of the affairs of Maryland.
Whatever may be the political COM
plexion of the next legislature, this
election law, with its labyrinthine
ballot, must be wiped off of the
statute books. No defense can be
made for it, and even the Democratic
managers are disappointed with their
handiwork, as they see it is not going
to accomplish the results which thew
expected. They are, in fact, ashamed
OF 1t, and for this reason are trying to
keep it out of the campaign as an
issue and to turn away the eyes of
the voters to the race question, when
they we'll know there is no more dan
ger OF negro domination in MARYLAND
than there is in Maine. We have
reason to believe, and we sincerely
hope, that the law will be pro nounced
unconstitutional by the courts and
wiped off the books in this way but
If this is not done, the legislature
which meets next January must undo
the vicious work of the extra session.
and give back to, the State the law
which made elections in MARYLAND
honest, fair and clean.

The coming election will decide
issue of greater import to the people
of Maryland than those strictly of a
party nature. The fair-minded people
of all political faiths understanding
this, will unite in taking such
measures as shall restore the honest
election law that was eliminated from
the statutes of the State by the $4O,-
900 special legislative session called by
the enemies of good government.

ONE figure is sufficiently

ONE figure is sufficiently expressive
to cover all that is implied in the pres
ent Democratic political campaign in
Maryland, and Democratic speakers
are wasting time and Democratic
newspapers space in multiplying the
number. A great big figure tells the
story, and its meaning is the autocra-
tic rule Of German and his old lieu
tenant, Rasin. This is the figure how
ever, from which Democratic speakers
and newspapers are endeavoring to
divert public attention.
