Republicans and Mixed Marriages.

Among the Republican candidates in Bal
timore is Senator Putzel, who is a nominee
for reelection to the State Senate. A re-
nomination is an endorsement of his record
in the Senate. The Baltimore San of Febru-
airy IL, 1898, published the following from its
Annapolis correspondent:
..Senator Putzel has bill which will legal
ize the marriages of whites with negroes and
also bill repeating two of the most ancient
laws on the statute books of the State. They
are Sections 1914 and 21S of Article q of the
Code. These two sections have come down
to us from colonial times, having been en-
acted in IT'S. Section 1874, which is to be
repealed by Senator Putzel's bill, is as follows
III any minister, pastor or other person who,
according to the laws of this State, do usually
join people in marriage, shall under any pre-
tense join in marriage any negro with any
white person, he shall on conviction be fined
$780,
s.Section 218 provides for the punishment
of white women for certain infamous offense.
This section it is also proposed to repeal.
Senator Putzel also has bill repeating the
law which prohibits the marriage of white
persons with negroes. The passage
of these bills will legalize and render lawful
intermarriages of whites and negroes in Mary
land

Extensive swindling Scheme.

WASHINGTON, October 29-OAicials of the
Postoffice Department say they have unearthed
in Boston a swindling scheme extensive as
that operated by the Miller syndicate i'll New
York.
Details of the case the officials decline to
make public in advance of the arrest of the
parties suspected. They have been quietly
following up clues which came into their pos.
session, and they say the evidence collected
will be sufficient to convict the men who were
back of the Bankers and Manufacturers
Mercantile Agency and the Cob Everett In
vestment Company, the concerns allie ged to
be involved.
BosToN, Oct. 29.-In connection with what

From the Louisville (Kentucky) Times

From the Louisville (Kentucky) Times.
The advancement of Mr.. Benjamin Dorsey
Warfeld of the l.. and N. law department, to
the position of district attorney for Kentucky

August &c. 1862 and was educated by his
mother in the public schools and at Glenwood
Institute in his native county. He was with
the B. and 0. Railroad Company at Balti-
more, Nd, from December 10, 1881 until Oc-
tober IA, 1882, when he removed to Louis

with Geo. H. Hull & Co. from October, 1882,

How to Vote.
Democratic Headquarters,

Baltimore, October 18th, 1901
To the Democrats of Maryland:
Election day will be Tuesday, November
9th. The polls open at s o'clock a. NJ. in
the counties, and close at o'clock p. IN.
See that the ballot given you contains the
initials of the Judge who gave it out.
Vote the ticket by marking cross (A)
mark in the space provided therefor to the
right of and opposite the name of every per-
son or persons for whom you intend to vote.
Remember, one mark at the head of the
ticket will not vote the entire ballot as it used
to do.
You must make a mark opposite the name
of every person for whom you wish to vote.
Make cross mark { x within the square
provided for the purpose.
Do not let the lX) extend beyond the
square. Make it entirely inside the square.
Do not make any other mark whatever on
the ballot.
Any mark whatever on the ballot except
the cross marks, whether in the square or out
of it, will cause the ballot to be thrown out.
Do not make dot or circle or any other
mark in the square but cross mark.
Be sure not TO deface or tear your ballot in
any way.
If you make a mistake in marking it, do not
attempt to make a corrections; return it to the
Judge and geta new one. You are entitled
to third ballot if the first two have been
spoiled and returned, but you must not con-
sumo more than seven minutes in marking it.
Be sure not to mark more names than there
are persons to be elected to an office. If you
do. your entire ballot will not be counted
For example, if you mark the names of FIVE
candidates for the House of Delegates, while
there are but four candidates to be elected,
your entire ballot, and not merely that part
relating to the House of Delegates, will be
thrown out.
This is most important to be remembered.
Find out before you vote the exact number
of Democratic candidates.
Be sure to vote for all of these candidates.
Count the cross marks made by you and be
sure that You put no more cross marks than
there are Democratic candidates on the ballot
Mark your ballot with the indelible pencil
which you will find in the election booth.
Do not use your own pencil; your ballot
will not be counted if you do.
Fold your ballot exactly as it was folded
when handed to you and give it to the ballot
Judge, without permitting anyone to see how
you have marked it.
See that the Judge tears off the coupon and
deposits the ballot in the ballot box.

Do Not Forget Your speotacles.

Democrats who use spectacles should not
neglect to take them to the polls on cleo
ton day, in order shat they can use them
to properly mark their ballots.
And it would be well for the Democratic
ballot clerk at each precinct to be supplied
with several pairs, in order to loan them
to any Democrat who may neglect to have
his spectacles with them.

Take Care of Legislative Candidates.

Republicans are exceedingly anxious to
elect majority of The next Legislature. In
some counties all Republican candidates are
to be sacrificed to save the legislative candi
dates. In Hartford county the Republican
nominee for the State Senate is Elk Congress
man William B. Baker. Owing to an order
issued by the Republican bosses to sacrifice
everything for Baker, the nominee for Regis
ter of Wills, Jacob Osmond, Jr., resigned.
He refused to be sacrificed and he and his
friends are very indignant and incensed.
Democrats of Carroll should look out for
our legislative candidates.

Be Careful.

Democrats, be careful not to make any
marks on your ballots except the z marks
on the spaces opposite candidates names.
Any other mark, no matter how small, if
discovered by the judges of election, will
cause the ballot to be thrown aside and
not counted.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1901-11-02

A vote for any Republican nomi-
nee for the House Of Delegates is a
vote for SYd. Mudd for the United
States Senate, and sgd. Mudd is very
closely connected with the Census
frauds in Maryland.

Democrats Can Win.

Before another issue of the ADvoCTE the
election will be over, and the battle will be

all Democrats do their duty. And there is no
possible excuse for any Democrat to fail to do
his duty.

Be Careful in Marking Ballots.

Republicans have been contending that the
X mark opposite the names of candidates is
not required to be wholly within the box
Let them mark as they please, but Democrats
desiring to have their ballots counted should
mark within the square space. In doing this
they take no chances.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1901-11-02

Had not the Legislature ordered a new
census, not only would four Republican coun :
ties have had undue representation in the
Legislature, but Carroll and other counties
would have been deprived of portion of the
funds to support the public schools.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1901-11-02

If voter spoils ballot, he should not
try to correct the error, but hand the bal
lot back to the ballot Judge and get anoth-
er. IF he spoils the second he can get a
third, but no more Do not be in a hurry,
seven minutes are allowed each voter, if
he requires that much time.

Examine Your Ballots.

When ballot is handed you by a bal
lot Judge, see that your name and the name
or initials of the ballot Judge are on it.
No ballot without these is legal
