WHITE SUPREMACY IN
MARYLAND.

Humbuggery say you, demogogue
think YOU when n party is bold enough
to declare it is opposed to The county
and state beng dominated 10y negro
votes or that a party is in favor of
white supremacy. In this county,
filed with the wealth of rich agri-
cultural people, the Republican party
must have the unqualified support of
the fifteen hundred negro voters to
even maintain an organization.
Among their negro voters are boys of
eighteen and nineteen years of aye,
who have been coached by Republican
ward and q strict workers 10 swear
they are tWenty-one years of age. Also
among them are negroes that have no
fixed abode, no interest in the welfare
or prosperity uf this community,
negroes who help to fill the record Of
our court with all kinds OF crimes, and
VT thu Republican County Couven-
ton talked about Democratic hum
buggery when we exposed this shame
fu and outrageous condition of affairs
Dare the Republican leaders assert
their independence Of the negro voter?
lis true they only seek them at elec-
ton time, for when Office. and honors
are to be distributed the poor darkey
goes to the rear every time. Why do
Republicans declare they can't afford
to bring the negro prominently to the
front: Why do they keep him in the
back ground except on election day?
At the recent county convention there
were less than half a dozen negro dele
gates pr, srnt. How many negroes are
on the State Genital Committee? The
same condition If affairs exists in the
State. Without the $4,000 negro
voters what would become of the Re
publican party? Of these $4,000 voters
at least 80 600 are llliterate. not able to
read or write, and yet this class of
voters seek, through the Republican
party, to control the white people of
the State OF Maryland is it hum
buggerY to point out these facts to the
intelligent people Of this Common
wealth? We have no hesitation in de
clarinG that the peace and good order
of this state can be- better sutservtd
under Democratic rule than under Re-
Il. Il.

THE Republican State Convention,
which met in Baltimore on Tuesday
last, the 9th inst, was presided over by
Hon. George A. Pearre, who made a
ringing party speech. Mr.. Herman |.
Plat, OF Baltimore, was nominated
for Comptroller and Thomas Parrau of
Calvert County, was nominated for
Clerk of the Court of Appeals. The
platform adopted favors corrupt
practice act. 1t also promises to take
the Baltimore police out of politics,
like they did under the Lowndes adj.
ministration when Commissioner
johnson owned the city. They also
want a primary election law. More
expense for the counties. OF course
they promise to repeal the election
laws passed at the last session of the
Legislature. They want the 10000 IL
literate negroes to control the white
people of Maryland and without whose
vote the Republican party would 90 to
pieces. They also promise to keep the
public schools.

The terrible struggle between capital
and labor which has begun in earnest
is likely to be one of the most fearful
strikes ever known in this country.
We have always been an advocate for
arbitration in all such matters and we
see no reason why such differences
of views could not be recouciled 10y
submitting the question to board
of disintere-ted men. At least one
hundred thousand men will join in the
great steel strike This must of neces-
sity entail wholesale suffering and for
the sake of all concerned we trust that
an amicable settlement may yet be
reached.

"lndeed the startling revela.

census that our registration books
contain many thousands of names
of voters who could not be found
is of itself a complete vindicatlon
of the necessity of this amend
ment and an effectual answer to
those who are now asking for its
repeal.
REFORM OF PRIMARY ELECTIONS
'We favor the passage of agener-
al law relating to primaryelections
and applicable to the whole State,
so drawn as to reform abuses
wherever complained of and to
secure to all political parties the

"We pledge our party to the con-
tinuance of an economical admin

CONTROL OF STATE BY WHITE
POPULATION.
"The Democratic party rep.
resents more than 40,0 majority
of the white people of Maryland.
They, in common with tlieir
brethren of other States into
which large masses of colored
voters have been injected into the
body polite, recognize that peace,
good order, personal safety and
proper development of our mate
full interests depend upon the con
troll of the Commonwealth by its
intelligent white residents. With.
out the aid of the 10000 colOred
voters the Republican party in
Maryland would be hopeless
minority.
eve, therefore, without hest
tation, proclaim that the success
of the Democratic party will mean
that, while we shall deal with
perfect fairness in securing all
the benefits of good government
and full and free opportunities
for education to all classes, such
action must be taken as to prevent
the coutrol of the State govern
ment from passing into the hands
of those who have neither the
ability nor the interest to manage
/ public affairs wisely and we'll.
"To secure this most desirable
result. We earnestly call on all
Democrats to lay aside all theil
differences aud to unite in an
enthusiastic and patriotic effort
! to maintain our Democratic su.

THE Republican County Convention

their energy in pointing out what they
declared the humbuggery of the Demo-
cratic platform. Not one word had
they to say Of their own doings or Of
anything they intended 10 do. Evil

some telling shots into the Republican
ranks, else less time would have been
devoted to doing away with the strong
impressions made upon the people.

The Republican County Convention
was quite harmonious; but one faction
OF the party was represented. The
darkies were not in evidence. Now,
why treat the men who carry the party
in such a way? Yet the RAIDS talk
about the white mans party being all
humbug.

How the Russian Author Rebuked an Ill

Count Leo Tolstoi Is one of the most
courteous and chivalric Of men and
nothing grieves him more than to wit
ness an injustice done to others. He
is fond Of music and plays well on the
plano. After tea the daughters and
guests usually arrange an impromptu
concert. Once, while q young lady
was singing badly, the little ones made
a noise, and the count went to ask
what they meant by being so Ill man
nered. Don't you like the singing?"
he asked.
"That isn't singing" said one boy;
"she howls."
"And you desire to protest against
her howling?"
Exactly So"
"Then come with me and tell the
lady Of your disapproval. 1t will be
rude, but honest To create y dis
turbance is indecent"

Games at Chicago,

The luck of Chicago in securing the
Olympian games for 1904 has aroused
wild enthusiasm in the Chicago Uni
versity. 1t is predicted that it will
prove great boon for western athlet-
les. A special stadium will be erected
on the lake front. 1t is expected that
the games will cost the city between
$175,OO0 and 100000. The probable
receipts are estimated at 100000. 1t
is intended to form a company Of $780,
600 capital stock, divided into 10000
shares of par value of $40 each, and
citizens will be asked to come to the
support of the company.

Ouails for Sweden.

Lively interest has been awakened
in Sweden by the importation of
American quails. Count Claes Lewen-
haupt Of Fosstorjo has ordered this
spring more than 5000 quails, costing
$500, and still more orders are ex-
pected. The birds are sent in cages
fifty in each cage-constructed espe-
cially for the purpose. The small lot
of American quails which were set
free in Count Lewenhaupt's estate at
Chaestorp last spring endured the win
ter well, and it appears that Sweden
has good prospects of an increase in
it's game birds.

Nineteenth Century.
Written for The Evening Star.
Sweeping away on its noiseless wings,
The finished century takes its flight,
Yielding unchallenged to yon faint light
That newly a century's promise brings.
What can the oncoming swift years hold
More than the wonders that mark today?
Is not the tale Of the ages told?
What can the Twentieth Century say?
To minds that shrink at the muster roll,
OF wonders that dazzle the thought Of man;
The worlds full conQuest-from pole to pole
Almost! When triumphs the hopeful plan.
The friendlier stars in their shining scroll,
Reveal the laws of their power TO shine;
Telling to eyes that read the whole
The hand that made is the hand Divine"
Let the faulty past with its failings, go.
Gather its blessings for new surprise;
Passing. In faith. from the things we know
To worthier deeds under fairer skies.
What shall we render of joyful praise
For all the good in the worlds great hand?
Service and cheer shall employ the days
And kindness honor the great command.
Master and man in the coming years
Each for the other a thought shall hold,
Cheerfuly serving with mutual cares,
Winning and spending the precious gold.
Each for the other, the great world through;
What will 1t do for the days that come?
Peace and truth shall all wrong undo,
And the century prove the millennium!
