Resolutions Of Respect.

AT a recent meeting of Montgomery Lodge
OF Masons the following memorial to DR.. E.
L. Stonestreet was unanimously adopted -
Again we are called upon to pause In our
laoors to pay our tribute of respect and affec.
ton to the memory of one to whom has come
the passing of life's little day. "The angel
came and beckoned to him, and the strong
man bowed himself and passed out through
the East Gate" having full confidence in the
merits of the Lion Of the Tribe of Judah. {"
Recognizing the inadequacy Of mere
words to express our sense OF loss, we desire
to bear testimony to our appreciation of
Brother Stonestreet's character as q man
and Mason, and to give some expression
OF our love and esteem therefore be it
ResoLoed, That In the death Of DIR. Ed.
ward E. Stonestreet, Montgomery Lodge has
been deprived of Brother whose walk
and conversation were worthy Of the reli.
gion he professed, and in strict accordance
with the teachings Of Masonry and the COM
munity in which he had passed his entire
life beloved physician" whose ear was
ever open to the call Of duty, and who spared
no effort to relieve the distressed and TO ad.
minister comfort in time of trouble.
ReSOIoed, That we extend to the family of
our deceased Brother our heartfelt sympathy,
trusting that the knowledge of the esteem in
which he was held by his associates, may
serve in some degree to mitigate their sor-
row and assuage their grief.
ResOLped, That in testimony of our respect
for the memory of our deceased Brother,
the furniture and jewels of the Lodge be
draped in mourning for period of thirty
days.
ResOloed, That this memorial be entered
upon the records OF the Lodge, and copy
furnished to the family Of the deceased.
"Let the light stream on his deeds
of love that shroud the Sight Of all but
Heaven"

The Race Issue.

The plain and outspoken declaration In
favor Of the ascendency of the white race In
the control Of affairs In this State which is
embodied in the State platform OF the Mary.
land Democracy has challenged attention
all over the United States. Here is one
State at least, our good old Maryland, which
utters no uncertain sound on this momen.
tous question. There is no lodging the
issue-no cloud of words or obscurity In
expressing the fixed determination of our
people.
II is natural that the press in the North.
ern States, whose editors only know the
negro in theory, should attack our position.
Our knowledge of him is practical, the re.
suit oil daily intercourse and close observa.
ton OF his character and capacities.
1t is cruel and unjust on the part Of Re-
publican writers 10 picture Democrats as
hostile to the negro. We wish him well;
we desire that he be protected in person and
property by just and equal laws.
We cannot tell now to what degree OF ad
vancement the negro may rise in the course
OF some centuries-by education, by con-
hnual contact with superior races, and by
the gradual training which will enable him
to subdue those animal propenslIles that
seem at present to have sucn unfortunate
mastery over him.
But TO give the negro, now, encourage.
mont to believe that he can enjoy political
and social equality with the white race is
mischievous and impracticable. Let US be
plain and candid about this. No self re.
specting white man desires the companion.
ship OF negroes in the intimate relations of
the home circle. The time is opportune for
plain talk about this. No good will be done
by reticence or deception regarding matter
which is being made prominent 10 the pend
ing campaign.
| A civilization like that of the Anglo. Saxon
and Latin races took many, many years to
develop; 1t is childish to suppose that the
negro can attain the same development by
the mere fact of changing his location from
the African to the American continent. Ii
he ever reach it, it will be slow and toll
some process.
And until he shall have made at least
some considerable progress toward higher
plane OF civilization, 1t is not right that he
should, by mere weight of numbers, be al
lowed to sway the destinies of q superior
race; or to hold balance of political power
that may enable the worse elements in
community to triumph over the better.
For these opinions we can quote good Re.
publican authority. Hear what Abraham
Lincoln says: debates with Stephen A.
Douglass, page 1855
81 am not now nor ever have been 10 favor
of making voters or jurors of negroes, nor
Of qualifying them TO hold office, nor 10 in
termarry with white people; and will say,
in addition to this, that there Is physical
difference between the white and black races
which believe will forever forbid the two
races living together on terms Of social and
political equality"
How unfortunate 1t was that, by an assas.
sins desperate act, this country was deprlv-
cd of the benefit of Lincoln's wise guidance
in the trying period OF Reconstruction -

Rayner In Montgomery.

The Democratic mass meeting at Boyd's
this county, Wednesday night was a large
and enthusiastic assemblage. Mr.. John w.
Williams presided. The meeting was at.
tended 1000 or more persons. The vice.
presidents were: DR.. j. E. Deets, F. P.
Hays, h. T. White, Jas. E. Williams, s. T.
Williams, E. A. McAtee, B. F. Hicks, Law.
renee A. Darby, Fred. A. Dawson, Law

f. Waters, A. B. Reid, II. D. Waters and
Benz G. Colt.
Fifty ladies were chosen as vice-presi
dents and occupied reserved seats in front
Of the stage.
The chief speaker of the evening was Hon.
lsidor Rayner, who was followed by Mr..
Dorsey Etchison, of Frederick.
Hon. Isidor Rayner was most enthusiast.
tically greeted. He said:
"The evidence Is all in and the arguments
are all made and the people in lew days
would make up their verdict He paid an
other glowing tribute to Judge McSherry,
who is the judge from this circuit, and asked
his hearers not to inflict the calamity Of his
defeat upon the State. "Why will not Mr..
Stevenson Williams and Mr.. Whitelock
come out boldly for judge McSherry and
ask their party followers to vote for him
| would not hesitate to do this il the posi-.
ton of Judge Stockbridge was involved. A
judicial position OF this sort ought not 10 be
prize for political services. Suppose you
were to go to the Johns Hopkins Hospital
and dismiss its most skitul and eminent
surgeons and supplsnt them with young
practitioners and apprentices at their pro-
lession. Would not this be public injury
The people of the State demand the retention
OF Judge McSherry, and l call upon Mont.
gomery county and its honor and its man
hood To resent at the polls this unprovoked
assault upon this the citadel of our strength"
Mr.. Rayner said that upon the race ques-
ton he did not create the issue, that it has
created itself, and no one regrets more than
he does that the issue must be fought out
upon the field of politics. This question
OF the suffrage must be ultimately dealt with
not by demogogues, but by the representa-
tive citizenship of this State, who have at
heart its welfare and its progress. Mr.. Ray
ner's thrilling appeal concisely reviewed the
main issues of the campaign and called up
on Montgomery county to stand by the col.
ors and give her verdict for the party to
which her best citizens are attached and
with which her highest interests are assocI-
ated.

Must Be Reelected

1t is remarkable that while the Republic
cans of Baltimore have acted with unexam-
pied forbearance in the judicial nomina.
tons, the Republicans in the Sixth circuit
are contesting the reelection of Chief Judge
McSherry.
1t is all, we understand, complication of
local factional conditions and ambitions, bat
no explanations can mitigate the misfortune
of partisan opposition to this great and use
full jurist. We say this with full apprecia.
ton of the merits of the candidate the Re.
pubicans have placed on their ticket.
Judge McSherry not only should be but
must be reelected. To defeat him would
be to bring loss upon the whole State. In
many respects his cause is more important
than the election OF Governor or the Legis.
AZURE that will choose Uaitei States Sen
ator. He is at the head Of our judiciary.
He has done more to increase the efficiency
OF tue Court of Appeals than any man 10
the memory Of the present generation.
By his energy and unremitting diligence
Judge McSherry has brought the work oil
the Court OF Appeals up to date. The old
delays which once afflicted 1t are gone. 1t
is modern business body. The change
has been worth more 10 money and time To-
the interests and the people of this State
than can be estimated in figures.
If the Republicans of the Sixth circuit
are wise they will unite with the Demo
Gratis in giving him majority that will make
him feel that his splendid service is fully re
