For The Town Hall.

Once again and for the last time this sea-
son we ask, will there be an entertainment
for the benefit Of the interior of the Town
Hall. The walls need recoloring and the
scenery renewal. 1t seems to us but reason.
able that those of our people who use the
Hall should desire to see 1t beautified aud
necessary stage accessories provided, and to
give one entertainment a year for that pur.
pose would be no more than is required to
keep everything 10 convenient shape.
The walls have been disfgured BY the
writing of names, Inscriptions and legends,
more or less Objectionable In sentiment; this
should be provided against by the enact,
ment of an ordinance placing fine for the
detacem, mt of the walls; names and senti
ments are not inscribed on the walls of
churches and private residences and the
Town Hall merits a like consideration.
Should an entertainment be provided there
can be Mt doubt that It would be literally
patronized, particularly we're it understood
that whatever would he done to beauiify the
interior would be protected against the Van
dial lead pencil BY proper borough legislation.
We are making no official announcement,
but there are capable people ready to aid in
preparing an entertainment for this purpose
and it has been suggested that On or about
February 22d would be the proper time.

Probably Wise.

The democratic caucus at Annapolis on
Tuesday evening decided against calling a
constitutional convention lnasmuch as the
Object of such convention would have been
to provide constitution for this State which
would ignore, by evading. the XlVth and
XVIII amendments to the constitution OF the
United States, and just that far take the State
Of Maryland out of the Union, it is probably
a wise decision that halts before committing
the matter entire into the hands Of an cleo.
torate thai has rendered five adverse major.
tiles against the party proposing the step,
within the past nine years. 1t would have
been life and death struggle and on the
vote "For" and Against" a constitutional
convention it is likely that the republicans
would have had more than an equal chance
to win, as il is by no means certain that the
more conservative democracy is quite ready
to take Maryland partly out of the Union,
which may be 30 considered, those who have
beel able to nnlify the two constitutional
amendments referred to.
Many would be. prone to take this view !;
that if one provision Of the National consti.
tuition may be ignored by evading it, sec.
ond, a third-an iudefnite number-may, by
the exercise of great ingenuity as in the case
in point, be nulifed by one after another of
the several States of the Union, condition
Of affairs no constitution respecting Amer
lean citizen will view with equanimity.
A grave error was committed when the
XIVth and XVIII Amendments were made
TO the Constitution of the United States, but
we should halt at taking our State out from
under them in order to correct that error an
enasculated National constitution would go
much further towards weakening civic pride
than would the confession that an llliterate
vote frequently decides our elections.

The DOWntrOdden Editor.

How can an editor be funny when the

people who want good papers should whack
up little more regular and tickle the edi-
tors funny place with the tail feather of the
American eagle. That's what makes the
Jelly come Did yoa ever see an editor with
40 cents In his pocket but what was happy?
You just square accounts with him and then
watch through the Office door, and If you

minutes than your grandmother ever dream
cd of, then you raay..shoot me for blubber
You just try 1t and report Call to mind a
printing office that was opened in the morn
ing with song and dance by the devil and
prayer by the editor. 1t was closed by the
sheriff. Do you suppose the editor could say
funny things and mean il? No more could
he than the editor who hasn't enough clothes
to flag bread wagon. Now, then, If you
want to see genuine flow Of soul ami hu-
NOR with whiskers on it, stop squeezing the
life out of that bird in your pocket and let 1t
rescue some editor from the hungry jaws Of
starvation. We Pet paid for saying this, but
there is more truth than-than-pay. &C.
