Dorchester county, has placed the Independent
Republican ticket at the head of its editorial
column and is heartily supporting it. In Tai

Republican Insincerity.

Among the promises the Republicans made
i'll their State platform was, should they be
successful in controlling the Legislature, the
following
SIT (theRepublican party will adopt a COM
pulsory primary election law, and make pri-
maries as fair as it has made our general cleo
ton law"
A bill for primary election lava very
stringent measure, designed to insure abso-
lutte fairness-was before the General Assem-
bly, of 1900, and every Republican member
in the House and Senate voted against it.
In view of this fact it may be Judged how
sincere is the platform promise.

The Baltimore Ne,cs has become the cham
pion of Negro domination in Maryland, and
boldly declares that the State and Baltimore
progressed more under Negro rule through
Lowndes and Master than in the twenty years
previous. 1t pretends to be independent, but
is the most rampant and unfair Republican
organ in the State.

A Comparison.

The last Republican Board of County Com
missioners, in 1867, paid themselves 81 ,239. 10.
The pay of the present Democratic Board
of County Commissioners, for the year 1901,
was but $832.O0.
This is difference of $4O7. 10 in favor of
Democratic rule.
Do the taxpayers want change?

Compare the Records.

Under Republican rule in 1862 and 1868
the State tax was rs cents on the $4,000, and
in 1865 and 1866 80 cents on the $4,000.
Then there was no tax for public schools.
In 1901, under Democratic rule, the State
tax is II cents on the $4,000, about II of
which is for public schools.

ARMEDTHUGS
ENTER ARCHA1BALT's RESORT AND
HOLDUP SALOON
Bartender John Dewitt Gazes Into the
Muzzle of a Revolver and Concludes that
Loss of Cash Is Preferable to Sudden Death.

The Lone Pine saloon on East Park
street, operated by ex-City Councilman
Joseph Archambault. seems to be easy
game for men engaged in hold-up en-
terprises. At 3 o'clock this morning
two masked robbers held up the bar
keeper, John Dewitt, at the muzzle Of
a pistol, and robbed the cash register
of $55.
The robbers evidently chose their
time for the robbery, for they entered
the saloon at an hour when there are
few people about, and at time when
the -barkeeper was the only person In
the saloon. This is the eighth or ninth
robbery that has taken place in the
quarter where the saloon is located,
and the fourth or fifth robbery of the
saloon itself.

"But while the right to enter upon
strike is and must be conceded, as
right belonging to the personal free
dom of workingmen, this must be ever
demanded-and in the name of the
same principle of personal freedom
under which men may refuse to work
that they who may cease to work must,
in no way, interfere with the liberty
of others who may wish to work.
"The personal freedom of the in

precious Inheritance Of Americans. The

Being further urged to express an
opinion upon the present strike and
strikes in general he said:
ITO employees entering willingly into
strike the matter is one Of their own
personal concern, and others have but
to concede to them their personal
right to act in such manner as they
will. Men are the masters Of theif
hands and of their labor; the liberty
is theirs to work or not to work, pro-
viding they understand the oonse-
quences that follow and are satisfied to
accept and endure such consequences

times theirs. but We must furthernaofA

Mayor Is Asked to Act.

San Francisco, Aug. l0.-The chamber
OF commerce has sent a communication
to Mayor Phelan, calling on him to take
decisive action to remedy the condition
of affairs in this city caused by the
strike. The mayor is asked to issue a
proclamation declaring that acts of vio-
lence and intimidation must cease and
making it clear that the city Is respon-
sible for all damage caused by riotous
disturbance. If the mayor has no au-
thority to increase the police force he
is requested to ask for state aid.
In conference with Governor Gage,
Mayor Phelan stated that the local au-
thorities We're fully able to cope with
the situation and that he did not ap-
prehend any serious trouble. Governor
Gage said:
Thus far nothing has occurred dur
ing the strike which requires my at
tention in an official capacity"

Salt Lake, Aug. 10.-By an injunction
granted at Carson City, New, yester-
day, the Oregon Short Line is restrain
ed from interfering in any way with
the San Pedro company (the Senator
Clark road. on the line in Lincoln
county, Nevada.
AS the San Pedro road has claimed
the right of way on the exact surveyed
line of the Short Line, the latter by
this decision will be unable TO con-
tinue its work of construction until the
injunction is settled at least. The
hearing on application for a permanent
injunction was set for Sept. ~.
The decision affects $50 miles of the
proposed line between Salt Lake City
and Los Angeles, and Is regarded as
the most important decision in the liti-
cation between the Oregon Short Line
and the San Pedro road for possession
of right of way.

Sheriff Veale of Contra Costa county,
in which the robbery was committed.
The sheriff demanded the custody of
the prisoner, and this being refused, he
procured search warrant. A truce
was arranged, however, and early this
morning the entire party boarded the
tug and started for Martinez, the cum
ty seat. Winters was handcuffed and
guarded with the utmost vigilance.

night, when a terrific explosion occurred
at the stock landing, where the Har

The Mechanician is to carry mules to

brought them quickly from their berths
to the deck.
An examination showed that two

into the ship.
The pumps were Immediately put to
work and when daylight came 1t was
found that the vessel was in no dan

was serious.
The crew of the vessel denied that
there are any explosives on board, and
there seems little doubt according to
the statements of those who examined
the ship, that the explosion was from
the outside and that some sort of bomb
or torpedo had been used.

FRANCE NEEDS MUCH WHEAT
Shortage in the Coming Crop Esti-
mated at From 27, 800, 600 to
10000. 600 Bushels.

Paris. Aug. 10.--Nothing is yet known
regarding the wheat crop with any ex-
actness which is not already plain to
ordinary experts. For France even the
first results of threshing are not
known.
Taking France as an example, it is
certain the years crop is heavily de-
f1cient. The only doubt concerns the
approximately amount of wheat which
will have to be imported to supply the
needs of the nations consumption.
The estimates range from 27,500, 900
bushels to 10000, 900 bushels.
