The Acknowledgement of Maryland
has given an opinion that irritates
those who are bent upon disfranchis-
ing the colored men. The Legisla-
ture passed law requiring the voter
to mark every name on his ticket,
and as the names were to be mixed
up it was hoped in this way to con-
fuse the illiterate colored voter and
clause the loss of his ballot. But the
Acknowledgement holds that it will
not be necessary to mark every name
on the ticket. If the voter marks
the names of the candidates for Pres
ident and Vice President, that will
be sufficient to indicate his purpose
for all the electors in support of
those nominees.

as gooa with his stomach filled with
new potatoes and berries as when it

hard work, either mental or physi-

it, and in hot weather rest from meat
as a food is rather beneficial than
otherwise. The meat strike may
