~MANY favorable comments on
our editorial regarding the polit.
ical career of Governor Smith,
published last week have reach
ed us. One prominent citizen
of Baltimore desired more cop
les of the paper than we could
supply. We find in the city of
Baltimore an immense senti-
ment in favor of the election of
Governor Smith to the United
States Senate, and the strong
est kind of confidence in his
success.

LETTER FROM BALTIMORE.

In Baltimore last week, spec
ulation as to who will fill the
various Offices at Annapolis
during the session of the Gen.
eral Assembly this winter, and
who will be the Junior United
States Senator, were the chief
subjects of discussion.
At headquarters, Murray Van
diver was busy paying bills and
closing up the business of the
Committee, and save for the
Offices. there would have been
nothing at all to talk about dur
ing the week, had it not been
for the merry little war be-
tween the Sun and the News, mi
tiated by the former, and tartly
entered into by the latter.
To return to the Offices for
the next legislature, however,
and the officers which that au-
gust body creates; after the new
United States Senator to be
elected, more interest is center
Fed on the office of Speaker of
the House than on anything
else.
Most favorably mentioned, as
in all things fitted for this very
important place, is Mr.. William
Collins. of Talbot; although
either j. G. Linthicum of the
Third Legislative District of
Baltimore City, or Edward E.
Goslin, of Caroline, may get it;
the chances, however, rather
favoring Mr.. Collins at this
time, if indeed they favor any
one, when no thought has as
yet been devoted to the matter.
1t is practically assured that
Colonel Spencer G Jones will
be elected President of the SEN
ate, without opposition, and
Albert J. Almoney, will be
elected reading clerk. With
ne position of journal clerk
+. Secretary of the Senate, as
5 no mans name has been
nked, and dame rumor up to
Ihis time states no one for either
position.
z AS to who the State Treasurer
will be, there seems to be but
one opinion, and that is, that
General Vandiver, will be re-
elected without opposition. His

sufficient endorsement for his
again being put in charge of
the office.
Who will be appointed Secre-
tary of State, is a question that
it is very doubtful if more than
one man in Maryland can an
swer at this time; and it is high
ly probable that that solitary
one has not yet fully made up
his mind.
Walter R. Townsend, who
has been reading clerk of the
House at every Democratic ses.
sion since '8S, is spoken of as a
sure thing for the place, and
Fred Sasscer, editor of the
Marlboro Enquirer, of Prince
Georges, is thought to be al
most equally sure for the jour
nal clerk. For chief clerk, no
name was mentioned last week
in Baltimore.
The fight for the seat in the
United States Senate has rapid
ly taken definite shape, al.
though who the lucky man will
be is still entirely a matter OF
speculation.
Mr. Rayner is still appealing
to the "people," and the i'm
preston which we get from the
news columns of both the Nesus
and the Sun is that the public is
waiting to stand on end and de-
mand Rayner. Whether this
is so or not, and even if it so,
whether it will move enough
delegates to elect him or not,
remains to be seen. Politicians
do not believe that it will.
It is understood that Senator
German intends to do all that
he can in Governor Smiths be-
half, and other influential State
leaders are openly working in
his favor. On the other hand,
the impression some time ago
was quite strong that Mr.. Ra-
sin intended acting independ-
emily in this matter, and that
Governor Jackson's fight was
to a certain degree in his hands.
One thing is certain, there is
not a delegate from the Eastern
Shore who will not vote for
Governor Smith or Governor
jackson in preference to any
one else, as that section of the
State feels that it is entitled to
this Senatorship and intends
making a fight for it; and since
two Eastern Shore people are
trying for the place, it hardly
seems reasonable to suppose
that their votes will go outside
of that end of the caucus.
