MARYLAND REPUBLICAN.

Some people who are accustomed to
claiming that Maryland is a Demo
cratic State, must come to the conclu-
sion IF she persists in eZecting Repub-
Gc0n candidates that this is no long
er the case. The vote in Maryland
on Tuesday, November 4th, showed a
Republican majority of over 5000.
For some years past Maryland has
shown, with remarkable regularity
and persistency, that she favors the
Republican party. 1t cannot be
doubted that the splendid service
rendered the people by Republican
officials has left its impress upon the
public mind and has gone far to break
down the ancient prejudices which
have initiated against them. Keep
on deserving success and standing
firmly for civic righteousness, and
success of the kind worth while will
come.

cult case submitted to him was made
apparent in the decisions handed
down by him. AS a trial judge he
had few superiors, and his work
brought him the honor and respect of
every lawyer who appeared before
him.
Judge Stake was always a staunch
Republican, and became prominent
in the politics of that party over a
quarter of a century ago. He served
as the States attorney of Washing
ton county, and in nearly every in
stance when a candidate for off ce ran
far ahead of his ticket His career
was one of great usefulness, and in
his death Western Maryland loses one
of it's most distinguished citizens-a
man who rendered good service to his
community, his section and to the
whole State.

THE COUNTRY NEWSPAPER.

Many men have attempted to i'm
moralize themselves by truthfully
characterizing the country newspa-
per. The late famented Bill Nye es-
sayed it. He said the country news
paper is library, an encyclopedia, a
poem, a biography, history, a pro-
phecy, a political resume, medly of
life and death, grand aggregation
of mans glory and his shame-in short
a birdseye view of all the goodness
and meanness, the joys and griefs, the
births and deaths, the pride and pov-
erty of a community, to say nothing
of its being long felt want, a nine
column paper in a five column town.
But even Bill Nye's vocabulary and
descriptive powers were inadequate
to do the subject ample justice, and
he was forced to admit that many a
country editor could write a learned
editorial on Asiatic cholera whose
roller composition wasn't fit to eat.
1t was the country schoolboy who,
upon being asked to write compost
ton on the country newspaper wrote:
Newspapers is called vehicles of infor-
nation. Editors is men what knows
everything in the heavens above and
the earth beneath. They is writer's
who doesn't write anything whatso-
ever. They Is the biggest men you
ever see. If ever l start a paper of
my own, I'll call it the Umbrella.
Everybody will take it,
Seriously, however, well conduct
ed country newspaper is the best in
stitution community can have, al
though it is seldom appreciated at its
true worth.

discontinued it's weekly several years

able in SO many homes, is gone, and

An Unenviable Record Has Fayette Coun-
ty, West Virginia.

Fayette is the most remarkable
county in the state. It's condition is
notorious. 1t is ring-ridden and con-
trolled by corruption. The county
court is the "whiskey ring of the
county; it owns the wholesale liquor
house which every saloonkeeper must
agree to buy from before he can get
license; controls 40 saloons in the
county, and has absolute control of
the whiskey business. The sheriff is
is bartender. The judge of the Grim
inal court is under indictment in his
own court for embezzlement and will
have to vacate the bench to let spe-
cial judge sit on trial on him. The
debt of the county is $1,000 and the
tax rate is $2.35 on the 800. OF about
5000 voters in the county 5000 were
last year returned delinquent. And
one-fifth of the inmates of the peniten-
tiary are from Fayette county. Can
any county beat it?-Martinsburg(W
Va.) World.

TRIBUTES TO JUDGE STAKE.

The courts and bar associations of
the Fourth Judicial Circuit of Mary
land have paid high but well deserved
tributes to Judge Edward Stake, who
died suddenly Sunday evening, after
a painful illness, which had caused
much alarm to his friends, but which
seemed about to yield to medical
treatment. No man was better known,
not only in Washington county, but
throughout all Western Maryland,
than Judge Stake, as he had for many
years been not only leading lawyer
and a jurist of exceptional ability,
but a citizen who took a prominent
part in every movement looking to
the advancement of his town, coun-
try and state.
When placed upon the bench by
the votes of the people of the Fourth
district Judge Stake was well equip
ped for the office, as he had been a
leader at the Washington county bar
for many years, and had distinguished
himself on the judiciary committees
of both the Maryland Senate and the
Maryland House of Delegates. His
opinions proved his judicial ability,
and his careful study # every diff

"THE SIN" AROTSED.

The Baltimore sam, in a leading ed
itorial, Tuesday last, has some severe
things to say to the Democratic man
ayers in Maryland. The Sun sees,
with sincere regret, the onward march
of the Republican party. One of two
things they feel must be true: "Either,
first, Maryland is LOSING her Demo-
cratic character, and is grGduGlly,
but surely, Seoingipg into the Repub-
ttc0n column; or, second, the Demo-
cratic party is more than anfortat1a-
ate IN its political directorate, and IS
kept u1der by Encouragement and
inc0nlpetency that has led 1t gear Gf-
ter gear and election after election
like lamb to the slGughter;n
The San has done some valiant SER
vice in former years and assisted in
retiring some gentlemen who are now
quite prominent in party affairs. The
Sun in the little encounter had with
the Democratic bosses in Maryland
got the better of their antagonists,
but instead of keeping them down
the San got tired and every mothers
son of the old crowd of managers, who
have had uninterrupted control of
the Democratic party for more than a
quarter of century, are still riding
in the band wagon at the head of the
column. Each of these gentlemen
hold down fat political job. One of
their pets has been provided for, and
who had been kept out in the cold for
eight years, (Mr. Talbott) had a line
thrown out to him and he, too, is
back in power. The sam might Just
as well admit that the same reasons
that justified it's course in fighting
this selfish aggregation a few years
back exist today. The same men con-
troll the situation and do not mind
criticism, made few days after cleo
ton, provided so excellent journal
as the Sun whoops it up when voting
time comes.
