Friends and self-respecting citizens of all
shades of politics, don't forget the fact that it
was the Democratic party that inflicted the
present outrageous and fraudulent election
law upon the people of this State. We know
you want it repealed and il surely will be if
you vote the Republican ticket on the Sd of
November.
The man who would buy the vote Of another
is in all respects as much of a criminal as the
man who sells his vote. If the Republicans
carry Maryland this year they will pass such
laws that will look to the breaking up of these
practices by endeavoring to send the buyers
and sellers of votes to the penitentiary.
Our nearby neighbor, the Democrat, has
lot to learn, especially when the man behind
the pen is not occupying the tripod. Some Of
the political rot that il is getting off just now
might do for schoolboy editor, but it is
scarcely in keeping with the dignity Of the
subject treated
A Democratic neighbor thinks the Mt Car
mel meeting simply settled everything. This
shows how little he knows about the true con-
dition of affairs up there. We heard of one
we'll informed citizen this week who said, "the
9Th district is all right for Republican MAORI
ty this year"
Another week has passed and the election is
only half month off and still Mr.. Jake"
Elliott hasn't said a word publicly. But what
he'll do privately on the Sd of November will
be awful! There's where the rub comes. And
he'll have lots of company, don't forget that.
The Republican campaign is going along
beautifully in Baltimore county. On every
hand the candidates are meeting with hearty
encouragement and the prospects are brighten
ing daily. The Sd of November will tell
story that will be worth waiting to hear.
At the Sherwood meeting last week Mr.. Tai
bott said his county ticket would get through
by 500 majority. The Republicans are alto
gether pleased with that estimate. Some asses
talk about 1, 500 majority and they won't bet
dollar that it'll be anything.

Two weeks from next Tuesday the people of
Maryland will have chance to vote for can
didates for Governor and for the Legislature.
If they vote the Democratic ticket they need
not look for a change in the present condition
of affairs. If they are fair-minded men and
will vote the Republican ticket they can rest
assured that the platform pledges of that party
will be carried out to the letter, as they were
after the election of '95.
The Baltimore County union. [volume] (Towsontown, Md.) 1865-1909, 1903-10-17

If fair election is held and the vote is
honestly recorded no fair man has word Of
complaint to make 81 the result. But when
all kinds of tricks and dirty work is the object
of the Democratic managers to the end that
they may accomplish their object, then it be-
comes altogether a different matter. 1t is time
for the honest voters of all parties to be on
guard, otherwise they may SOON be entirely
robbed of their rights as free Americans.

Mr.. WIN. F. BRoENING, of Baltimore civ
was one of the speakers at the Republican
mass.meeting in Belair last Saturday night
He devoted his attention especially to the extra
session of 1901 and to the present Infamous
election law. He made comparison between
one who, though iliterate, was in every sense
worthy citizen, and for that DISTINGUISHED
while on the other hand dissolute character
educationally qualified, would be enabled to
exercise the elective franchise. Does this he
asked, prove the efficacy of literacy or educa.
ton as test to the right of suffrage? Has the
educated scoundrel and worthless individual a
greater right under the law than the unedu.
Gated citizen, illiterate, but honest upright
law-abiding, benefit to the community in
which he lives and who contributes to the sun
port of his government? To my mind, no!
And such law is at war with the Declaration
OF Rights Of our State, which guarantees to
every male citizen having the qualifications
prescribed by the Constitution the right of
Suffrage

The Towson Democrat thinks it did great
thing in its issue of last week by digging up
some past political history in Baltimore coun-
ty and connecting THE UNION with it. We
have already said that we are entirely satisfied
with our past political record as newspaper
publishers in Baltimore county and have no
apologies to make to anybody. That ought to
be sufficient.

ELECTIONS THAT DON'T ELECT

An election is legal continuance by which
choice is made of public officials, the object
being to ascertain the real preference of those
who cast the votes. A contest of Juggling an
endeavor to get the result declared by tricks
and cunning. for one side to Guido the other
IN deceits and artifices is not an election but a
mockery.
In the Legislature Of 1902 the House of
Delegates passed law-by a vote of all the
Republicans and .fve Democrats-the other
democrats voting against it, which contained
provision that if any cross-mark made by a
voter in the square opposite the name of
candidate should extend beyond the sides of
the square that the ballot should not bs
rejected II, in the opinion of majority of the
judges, such extension was the result of
accident or mistake; but that it should not be
counted if majority believed it was done to
make distinguishing mark upon the ballot.
Yet this very mild provision as to getting at
the true intention of the voter was struck ont
of the bill when it reached the Democratic
Senate.
And this is the history of the struggle for
fair elections throughout. By the Republican
40" Vi LOU TIC JUICES were required to
endeavor to ascertain the real intention of the
voter from the marks on his ballot. No fault
was found by the Democrats with this law. nor
with the machinery and regulations for
enforcing it, and the elections held under IL
were the fairest and freest that Maryland has
had for many years.
Under the Democratic law now operative the
contrary is true. Quirks and bubbles are the
order of the day. Technicalities, instead of the
voters intent, govern the counting of the
ballot. There is room for fraud, and no man
doubts that fraud is widely practiced.
Worse than all an illiterate man, whether
white or black, who, under the Constitution.
is as much entitled to vote as his educated
-~~'s,a~A---T ny InulrecC process
In Maryland today many a man who is fit to
fight for his countrywide might be called on
to die for her-cannot cast ballot in her
socalled elections

The elegance with which the editors of the
Towson Democrat express themselves must be
found Intensely amusing to those who take
the trouble to read what they say-if there
be any such. And then its familiarity with
the candidates on the ticket is too funny for
anything. They area all Charles, "Willies,"
"Tommies, etc. That may be very fine style
of backwoods journalism, but it scarcely comes
up to the requirements of the present day.
But then it all goes to help make little fun

Towson contemporary sneers at Mr..
Robert Garrett, one of the Republican nomi-
nees for the House of Delegates, because it
says he's millionaire. But he's more than
that. He's clean cut Republican, gentle
man and man who has the brains to get up
before an audience and make mighty strong
talk on the road and oyster questions, matters
that are of deep concern to our people just now.
If Mr.. Garrett is millionaire he didn't make
bis money by robbing other people. He came
by it honestly and it is well to remember this
as you go along.

Misses Bessie and Florence Glover
 were in New Milford, Tuesday.
 On returning from church this even-
 ing (February 22), and sitting alone by
 the freight, our mind reverted to the days gone by, when the church was filled with devout worshipers. Great changes have taken place, not only in the church but in the community, during the last few years and few are now left who walked these streets in the years gone by. It is nine years to-day since Rev H. L. Wheeler passed from this earthly life, and as was stated this morning in the sermon by Rev James Taylor, his Christian char acter, influence and example for good shines out brighter and clearer as the years go by. 'Men are often greater in defeat than in victory. When all eXtraneous elements of success are removed, we discern the completeness and beauty of the inward success. The man who aims to be just, true, pure and noble, and values himself in the proportion to which he attains these things, has founded his house upon rock and no storm of diversity or per secution can sweep it away."-[*

Acute Indigestion.
CURED BY DR WILLIAMS PINK
 PILLS FOR PALE PEOPLE.

EVERY sURKERER WILL RECOGNIZE
 THE SYMPTOMS DESCRIBED BY MISS
 ROLLING.
 Healthy and rosy-cheeked, looking as though she had never known sick day, Miss Helen Rolling has neverthe- less passed through intense suffering. To reporter who called at her house, No. 267 South Washington street, Col umbus, Ohio, she said:
 "Two years ago I had an attack of acute indigestion, accompanied by ner- vous headaches and dizzy spells. lost in weight, my complexion became pale and sallow, slight exertion made me breathe hard and I could not walk any distance without getting all tired out. became alarmed and sought medical aid, but the doctors gave me no lasting benefit and continued to grow worse. My stomach could not digest even 1he simplest and most wholesome food, and dieting did not seem to help me. And was so tired and worn out all the while.
 ''It was Dr Williams Pink Pills for Pale People that cured me. read an article somewhere telling what these pills had done and began taking them. Relief came almost immediately. I kept on taking them and my color came back, could eat with relish and with no fear of distressing consequences. I began to feel strong and active and in short time was restored to perfect health." ~
 What Dr Williams Pink Pills for Pale People did for Miss Rolling they will do for others similarly afflicted, as is proved by thousands of cases on file.
 Dr Williams Pink Pills cure stomach trouble by their tonic action, building up the digestive organs and enabling them to do the work that nature in. tended them to do. Artificial ferments and predigested foods weaken the stomach in many cases. Medicines should not do the stomach'S work but should put it in condition to perform it's natural functions. A diet book giving useful information will be sent free on request by the Dr Williams Medicine Company, Schenectady, N. Y.
