ISSUES IN MARYLAND.

The Republican state convention of
Maryland met last Tuesday and nom.
mated candidates for state offices.
The convention also adopl ed plat
form embodying ,he usual rigmarole
OF similar platforms on subjects of
the tariff the national hnancies and
the "insular" policy Of the administra-
tion.
Il was supposed that the Republl.
cans of Maryland would rise to the oc-
casion and squarely accept the issue
raised by the Democrats relative to
the disfranchisement Of negroes.
Some sor. Of declaration in favor of
equal suffrage was expec ed by the
Republican voters of the country.
Nothing of the kind appeared. The
main resolution Of the convention was
one urging the defeat OF ex Senator
German The recent cleo ion act OF
the legislature was incidentally cen
cured not because II restricted the
suffrage. but because its purpose was
to assist German in his candidacy
for the United States Senate.
There was no clear cut declaration
for honest suffrage for the upholding
ct the constitution and for the equali-
ty Of citizens under the election laws.
Nothing was proposed except a plan
to beat German by making an election
law unpopular. It was lame and i'm
potent conclusion. The convention
lodged the main question Of colored
Acknowledgement and sought only to
get a dig" at German.
The half hearted declaration OF the
Maryland Republicans is evidence
that, like MIR. Mckinley and The Re
publlcans IN congress. they are not
really opposed to negro disfranchise-
ment. They are opposed OF German
as candidate for his old place in the
United States senate and that is all.
