Negroes Are Not 10 Vote.

Annapolis, Nd, Jan. II The action
OF the democratic members of the Mary
land Legislature who met in conference
here this evening made il evident that
the solid strength of the party Is behind
the movement To take away the right
OF suffrage from the negroes as far MS
that can be effected by constitutional
movements. This conference was called
for the purpose OF considering this plan
and the Democratic senator's and DEL
egatos who compose over three-fifths
OF the whole body were unanimous in
its favor tonight.
Two plans were proposed to accom-
plish the elimination OF the negro. II
was suggested by Attorney General
Bryan that the amendment be nosscd
through the Legislature ami submitted
To the popular vote afterwards. The
test OF the right To vote under this nlan
was the ability t. read and write. The
scheme proposed by Mr.. John p. Poe
contemplated Constitutional Convcn-
ton, vested with power TO make its
conclusions have the force of oroonic
law without submitting it TO popular
vote. Both plans contain the grand
father clause, excepting from the oper-
alton or the law all persons who were
voters or descended from voters prior
to January 1, 1869.
II was thought that Mr.. Poe's plan
would be adopted as whole It was
FOUND, however, that the best legal
OPINION was TO the effect that the n
mehdmenis passed Ivy the convention
would still have to be submitted 70 a
popular vote. For this reason the CON
terence approved the plan OF submitting,
amendments to accomplish their objects
directly TO the people.

temptibly small fraction Of .'nr ex- ports and imports.
 American shipping in the foreign trade was greater by over hundred thousand tons in 1S10-nearly a hun dred years ago than i. was last year. in the face of the continuous decline in the record of American shipping dur ing the last forty-three years. the promises of the epublican party to restore it is without encouragement. The record of the Democratic party gives assurances that the task can be more wisely entrusted to it.
 It IS an arduous task to undo the ef- feet of forty years of cecadence, and requires the study and investigation of those best fitted by experience to find it's remedy-which surely does not lie in the granting or suosidles, wTung from the pockets of all the tax payers.

 We are justly proud of the officers and men of our army and navy. Both, however, have suffered from the per sistent injection of personal and polit- ical influence.

These and other abuses should be corrected. Pensions for Our Soldiers and Sailors
 The National Democracy favors liD- eral pensions to the surviving soldiers and sailors and their dependents on the ground that they deserve liberal tratment. It pledges by it's platform adequate legis- lation to that end. But it denies the right of the executive to usurp the power of congress to legislate on that subject. Such usurpation was at. tempted by Pension Order No. IS, and effect has been given to it by a con gress that dared not resent the usurpa- ton. It is said that this order was

CUT OFF HIS own THUMB AND
CARVED OUT ACHING TOOTH

Kruger had no thumb on his left hand,
and how he lost it is another story that
throws light on the quality of the man.
The explosion of his gun tore the
thumb. and the wound was neglected
until it suppurated. Only then did he
think it necessary to seek the services
OF surgeon. The surgeon promptly
told him that amputation of the hand
was necessary to save the arm, Kruger
would not listen TO this advice, and as
the surgeon would have nothing TO do
with the case unless amputation was
permitted, Kruger became his own ply
stefan.
Carefully sharpening his sheath knife
he laid the thumb on a board and cut
of what he considered a sufficient
length. Still the wound refused TO heal,
and ne then repeated the operation,
hacking on the thumb below the second
Joint. so that one side of his hand was
hardly distinguishable from the other.
But ne saved his hand, and using his
first finger as a thumb, he found his
left hand quite as useful as one Of five
digits
At another time he displayed the same
power OF withstanding physical pain by
literally digging out an aching tooth
with his knife.
