MARYLAND ELECTION MEANING.
GoRMAN WILL FIND 1T HARDER TO SE-
CURE RETURN TO SENATE
GBY TELEGRAPH TO THE rRIBuxE.l

tBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUNEl
Baltimore. May 9.-The Republican victory in
the election of City Councilmen on Tuesday was
a rebuke to Arthur German and Free" Rasin
the old Democratic city boss. a protest of Citi-
zens regardless of party against the German Dis
franchising Election law, and a warning to Cor
man and his recently resurrected Democratic
machine that the independent voters will again
try to prevent his election to the United States
Senate by his old machine methods. German
and the other Democratic State leaders are dis
appointed, but they profess to believe that yes
terday's election was not a fair test of the
illtteracy law, because only about GO per cent
or the registered vote polled. The truth is
several thousand or more negroes did Stay away
from the polls because they were afraid they
could not mark their ballots correctly.
In spite Of this fact however, the Democrats
were beaten The white Independents and the
Democratic City Hall off1ceholders and nearly
all the followers of Mayor Hayes were against
the regular Democratic tickets. The German
Rasin people turned down the Hayes candidates
for Councilman nominations, and yesterday the
Hayes City Hall faction KNITTED" the Rasin can
didates. The result widens the split in the
Democratic party in Baltimore and makes IT all
the harder for German to control the legislature
to be elected this fall. Twelve hundred or more
illiterate white voters were either afraid to try
their hand at voting what they could not read,
or took no interest in the election Several hun
dred negroes who could not read voted all right
as result OF the Republican ward schools of
instruction. United States Senator McComas
and the other Republican leaders define
German the issue of the coming campaign.
Senator McComas says:
This victory helps good government in Mary
land. The Republican party is united. Fair
primaries gave it strong ticket The extra
session of the Legislature put the spring cleo
tion in Baltimore in politics. The scheme OF Mr.
German and Mr.. Rasin to disfranChise citizens
had to he tried by the suffrage of half of the
voters Of Maryland. The result is a jority of
over 1000 in this city. The counties of the
State have been looking They will be ami
mated TO emulate the harmony. the good nomi-
nations and clean fight In Baltimore and we will
prepare TO win victory In the fall which will
restore the Reform League Election law If
learning and illiteracy to be dealt with we
must not begin by making serfs Of citizens.

A BIG DAY.
VAN BUREN COUNTY WILL HAVE A HOLIDAY
AT THE LAYING OF THE CORNER STONE
OF THE NEW COURT HOUSE.

The supervisors in session this week,
invited the Masonic grand lodge to
assist in the laying of the corner
stone of the new court house, and
authorized Chairman Wildey of the
board to name a local committee of five
citizens of Paw Paw to take charge of
the arrangements for the day. Mr..
Wildey has appointed as such committee
Messrs. r.. w. Broughton, +. f. Parks,
I. J. Cavanaugh, NJ. O. Rowland and
b. f. Heckert.
Ofcourse no definite plans are yet made,
but the sentiment in this village and
throughout the county is unanimous
for big day. The county seat question
is settled, the Jail bonds do not seem to
be meeting any opposition whatever and
will surely carry, and this county is GO
ing to have buildings of which every
citizen of the county will be proud,
Paw Paw will act as host on the day of
the laying of the corner stone of the
court house. and the people of the entire
county will be here to help in the cere-
mony. The True Northerner believes the
occasion can be made a great success,
and that the good feeling between the
various sections of the county, tenn
poraFily interrupted to an extent by the
county seat fight, will be fully restored.
BY all means, let US have a county
holiday.

VERDICT FOR $4,000.
Jurors In the R0ssow Ease Show Anger
ia Court.


The trial of the $500 damage suit
of @. T. .Rossow as administrator of
the estate Of VIM. Rossow, deceased,
against the Omaha road was COM
pleted in the United States court Fri
day evening. Pierce Butler summed up
on the part of the railroad and F. D.
Larrabee for the plaintiff. The action
was one to recover for the death of
VIM. Rossow and came from jackson
county. The jury agreed upon a
verdict at midnight and returned it
into court this morning. 1t gave the
plaintiff 81, 600 damages.
Mr.. Butler requested that the jury
be polled and the court SO ordered.
Each juror was then asked whether
that was his verdict and each replied
that it was. This proceeding angered
several of the jurors, and one stood
up after the poll had been taken and
asked why this had been done.
Judge Lochren explained that either
party had a right to have the jury
polled, although it was seldom done.
The verdict was evidently COM
promise, for the lawful damages for
the taking of human life are So, 00O

November term disagreed after hav-
ing been out for three days
