The Result at Annapolis.

M pavper.s success has several aspects.
In the first place, 1t is triumph of ca
nac,tv. He was easily the best qualified
man aspiring to the office. Mr.. Carter Is
great lawyer, but has had no experience In
nolitics. AS senator he would have been
problem. and at his time of life he might
not have developed taste for the WORK.
Gov. Smith has had some success locally,
but has done nothing indicating that he
would have been particularly at home or
useful In the Senate. Miles and jackson
were mere pawns In the play. But MI.
Rayner is of senatorial size. He will take
good rank In that body, both by means OF
his talents and his familiarity with con-
gressional life. An orator of force has
been added to his party's equipment there
and Maryland should figure in the debates
to a considerable extent.
In the second place, the Gorman-Rasin
machine has received a severe jolt. There
seems to be some doubt as to just where
Mr. German stood as respects Mr.. Carter
and Gov Smith. Gossip accredited him
with so much Machiavelism in his play
that he was accused of supporting Mr..
Carter as a mere ruse to develop a sftua-
tion-which however did not develop-and
of opposing Gov Smith with something of
the same end in view. This feature Of the
case is too tangled for everyday compre-
hension. But whatever his real attitude to-
ward those two men may have been. as to
Mr.. Rayner nothing was left in doubt Mr..
German did not want him on any terms,
and first and last tried to defeat him.
What of the future? Will the enemies of
the machine, flushed with this victory,
move to complete it's destruction? Is the
machine at the mercy now of the Rayner
people, who have won, and the Smith peo-
pie, who are snarting under a sense of
having been betrayed? Or shall we wit
ness, what so often follows in such a case
a truce to factionalism. and the admission
of a new partner into the firm? Shall We
see new shingle hung out, and business
at the old stand conducted by German,
Rasin and Rayner?
1t seems idle to inquire what effect this
result is likely to have on the German
presidential boom. because that appears
now to be meribund. Mr.. German has
either lost his cunning, or else is playing
in such wretched luck as but few men
have ever encountered

Blanket the Horses.

The man who docks his horses tail so
that the animal cannot brush off the flies
in summer is very likely to clip the crea-
lures coat in winter to make him look
smart, and then forget or refuse to blanket
him. There is no more pathetic sight than
a team of spanking horses with their hair
cut down to the very skin. hitched to
fashionable turnout standing In midwinter
in the street awaiting the pleasure of the
master or mistress, while the temperature
hovers around zero. If the horse owner
required his driver Or footman to wear a
skin-tight garment OF the thinnest mate
rails, or a bathing suit. as Puck" has sug
gested, there would be an immediate strike
among the jehus which would give Chicago
points on the nursing of grievances. But
unfortunately the horses are not organized
and do not appreciate their strength. Else
would they refuse to leave their stables
on cold days without blankets, or, if forced
to go out by being whipped. would take the
first opportunity to run away to shelter.
In Philadelphia and New York an active
crusade is now In progress to persuade
horse owners of the cruelty of thus forcing
their valuable animals to stand the bitter
cold of winter without either natural or
an artificial covering. Cards have been
printed for general distribution reminding
horse owners of the fact that failure TO
blanket the animals when they are stand
ing in the cold renders them answerable to
the law. This law is not specific, but re-
lates generally to cruelty to annals Such
a law is In force in this District. and would
doubtless apply equally with the statutes
in Philadelphia and New York. A definite
movement here of the same sort would
disclose many habitual offenders. Probably
a general reminder by means of cards and
other methods of agitation would suffice to
avert the necessity for prosecutions.

A Confession.

I've been down to the city, an i've seen the
'lectric lights,
The twenty-story buildins an the other
stunnin' sights;
I've seen the trolley cars a-rusfin' madly
down the street.
An all the place a-loofin' like fairy land
complete.
But I'd rather see the big trees that's a
CROWN up to home,
An watch the stars a-twinkiin' in the blue
an lofty dome:
An ia rather hear the wind that goes a
singin past the door,
Than the traffic of the city, with its hustle
an its roar.
1 reckon I'm peculiar an my tastes is kind
O. low;
But what's the use denyin things that Ger
tainly is so?
1 went up to concert, an 1 heard the
music there:
1t sounded like angelic harps a floatin'
through the air.
Yet spite of all its glory an the gladness
an acclaim.
II 1 stopped to think minute, I was home
sick jes' the same
An I couldn't help eenfessin', though 1t
seems curious thing,
That I'd rather hear a robin sweetly pipn'
in the spring.
