Fire in Ottawa.

A fire suspected of being incendiary
Sunday afternoon and evening de-
stroyed hundreds of houses and mill
lions of feet of lumber in Ottawa, Ont.
John White, who has just been re-
leased from the penite ntiary after
serving a term of imprisonment for
arson, was caught near where the
fire was first discovered. He was
taken to the police station and will be
charged with starting the cOnf1agra-
ton. The fire originated within a
stones throw of where the great Hull
fire of April 26, 1900, was checked.
The Hull fire started on the opposite
side of the river and spread to the
Ottawa side, destroying millions of
dollars worth of property. 1t burned
out near where the Ottawa and Parry
Sound railway enters the western part
of the city and it was in the lumber
yards near the railroad that to- days
fire originated. The total loss TO
buildings and lumber is about $780,
600.

4 GLORIOUS VICTORY.

Our great triumph Of Tuesday, in State
and county, has not only gladdened every
Democratic household and fired every Dem
ocratic heart, but it is OF such character,
so pronounced and of such far-reaching
significance, as TO awaken new hopes, arouse
more determined energies and higher ambi-
ton in the further maintenance Of those
great Democratic truths which underle the
stability of our institutions and which were
to be under the control and government Of
the white man.
1t was In all probability one of the most
determined and desperate political battles
ever waged since the foundation of our State
government. 1t was battle In which, from
start 10 finish, 1t was "war to the knife and
knife to the hit." The President of the
United States stepped down from his ex-
allied position and called around him the
ever-willing sycophants Of Executive pleas.
ure and the vassals of party prejudice, and
directed them 10 see that his policy which
he had inaugurated, the equality of the
races, was sustained. 1t sent terror into eV.
cry Democratic home. The issue was made
The result was, the Democracy, assisted by
the white independent manhood, met 1t, and
Maryland stands out proudly as white
mans government and under the control
and influence Of white men.
More than this, the people OF Maryland
are to be congratulated that those who have
been selected TO direct the official machinery
of the State are clean men, honest men, ca.
pable men, men OF clean methods and NOR
ais, each and all well equipped for their re-
spective duties, and with courage to meet
and discharge the same.
But we would be false in this splendid
hour of our triumph and do violence to our
feelings if we did not congratulate the voters
Of this Judicial Circuit upon the re election
of Judge McSherry, whose purity OF char
acter and legal learning has adorned the
Court over which he has presided with such
distinguished success, and whose judicial
decisions are an ornament to the bench and
the bar Of the State.
A word more. The Democracy OF Mont.
gomery has done It's duty In meeting the
great emergency of the hour-they stood in
the conflict like the Spartan soldier, and the
old historic county will have an honored
seat at the white mans table.
