Bonaparte Cracks the Party
Whip.

Charles j. Bonaparte, Secre-
tary of the Navy, has assumed
the role, not only of leader, but
practically dictator of the party
in the State. But he is tactful
and diplomatic leader. who snaps
the whip that minor leaders may
understand that in matters Of
party management they must see
him first. President Roosevelt,
through Mr.. Bonaparte, will take
a hand in the campaign in Mary
land this fall, and it is said, the
National Republican Committee
will lend Its aid in fighting the
Democratic Consti tut on u
Amendment for the disfranchlSe'
ment of the negro.
The impression is gaining
ground that Bonaparte is playing
for a high stake. Two years
hence the Legislature will %
called upon to elect a successor
to Senator German. Should the
Republicans, under the leader
ship of Bonaparte, manage 10
corral a majority of the members ~
of the State Legislature be WIZ

been his ambition for years.

MR.. BONAPARTE AFTER THE
NAVAL GRAFTERS.

Whatever may be said of SecrC-
tary of the Navy Bonaparte politically,
no one has yet questioned his honesty
of purpose or his courage to do what
he conceives to be right. Every Mary
lander ought to feel proud of the com
pliment conferred upon the State by
the selection of such representative
citizen for so important portfolio.
With the example before us of the out
rageous decentralization existing in the
Russian navy, it would be we'll to have
an entire overhauling of Americas
great navy in every department The
lesson taught us by the doings of other
nations IN this regard should be the
means of placing us in the position to
avoid dangerous practices and thus put
this great arm of the service in the
most enviable position possible. Mr..
Bonaparte has ordered a rigid investi-
CATION of certain departments and is
determined to bring all grafters to JUS
tice aud to deter future violations of
the regulations of the service. Mr..
Bonaparte, with his courage and uu-
firing energy, is the one man in the
Presidents cabinet to do what is
just and fair in this most important
matter.

To sum it all .up-any white man,
whose father or grandfather or any of
his ancestors voted in the year 1869
or prior to that time, or who can read
any section of the Constitution of the
State Of Maryland or who can give a
reasonable explanation of any section,
when read to him, can register and
vote under the provisions of the pre- =
posed amendment. 1t is certainly
easy enough. Any foreigner, who is
naturalized and who can read, should
certainly not fear the slight test that
will be given him. II he can read
and understand he can easily come out
ahead. Tn Ise who cannot are not
entitled to vote and their own sins of
omission will be properly visited upon
them.

THE Japanese and Russian ENJOYS
have come to an understanding on all
the points in the peace treaty and there
will be cessation of hostillities in the
far East. President Roosevelt is given
credit for large share of the work Of
bringing about the happy result and all
the world will rejoice that the bloody
war is at an end Japan gains all she
asked except money indemnify and
the possession of the informed warships
of Russia and one or two minor points.
She magnanimously made concessions
to her almost conquered enemy and
thus adds more glory to her great vic
tory. Russia gained more by diplo-
macy than by contest at arms and is
satisfied. The tr, atty of Portsmouth, as
it will be known, will be a memorable
occasion in the worlds history.

A WORD TO OUR READERS.

We introduced to our readers in our
last issue new feature which we be-
lieve will be appreciated. 1.-THE Home
Circle" department is one that will
interest all classes of readers, but more
especially does it appeal to the wives
and mothers, the queens of our homes.
1t is our highest ambition to give our
readers the class of reading they most
relish. This department will in the
future appear each week providing
our readers so desire. Your home
paper has much to do in moulding
the opinions of the family circle which
it weekly visits. 1t is our highest am
bition to have the columns of this
paper moral and elevating in what
little influence they may SOW in this
community. If you are pleased with
this new feature do not be backward in
letting us know it. If you enjoy it send
us letter or postal card as an encour-
agement. Even an editor can enjoy
an occasional rose thrown in life's
thorny pathway.

How about that little Slogan
that emanated from Republican
sources few years ago and also
from the various secret societies
having antipathy for a certain
church as the basis of their
order, "America for Americans" :?
Have they forgotten it lately or
is it still smouldering in the
hidden recesses of the brain?
How can they reconcile their
1.-THE Republican, tender solicit
tude for the foreigner in the OPP
erations of the Amendment, now
that their record stares them in
the face? The Republicans
were in favor of the most string
ent emmigrations laws to keep
the foreigner out of this country
then and now seeks to enlist his
sympathy with their cause-that
of defeating the DISTINGUISHING
Amendment. How very thin,
as the strand of the spider web,
is their blatant plant in the
face of their attitude some few
years ago.

Ok several of the main approaches to
the city, namely the North Market
Street pike, the West Patrick and East
Patrick Streets pike, it is difficult for
drivers to see objects coming toward
them from the city on account Of the

which are placed at the ends of these
streets. For nearly Il quarter of n
mile the shining are stares one in the

PEACE BETWEEN RUSSIA
AND JAPAN.

Makado MagnanlmouSly rore-
goes Indemnity of 5000, ooo,-
900 and Yields to Russians
Terms. A Great Moral Vic
tory and a Triumph for the
President.
A dispatch from Portsmouth,
N. g., of the Goth inst, brings
important news to an anxious
world-the news of peace between
Russia and Japan.
The long and bloody war be-
tween Japan and Russia is ended.
The terms of peace were settled
by NJ. Witte and Baron Komura
at the session of the conference
this morning, and this afternoon
preliminary arrangements for an
armistice were concluded and the
aetna! work of framing the "treaty
of Portsmouth, was by mutual
agreement turned over to the
legal advisors of both nations.
The treaty is expected to be
completed by the end of the week.
How the agreement was reached
is shown in the following state
ment issuedHby Mr.. SatO on behalf
of the Japanese plenipotentarles:
The question of the final dispO-
sition of the island of Sakhalin
and the reimbursement to Japan
of her war expenses have from the
first been issues on which absolute
divergence of views existed. The
difference of opinion upon these
points-not one, but both have
frequently threatened the exis-
tence OF the conference. But His
Majesty the Emperor of japan,
responding to the dictates OF hu-
mainly and civilization, has, in d
spirit of perfect Cancellation and
in the interest of peace, authOriz-
ed his plenipotentiaries to waive
the question of reimbursement of
war expenses, and has consented
to a division of Sakalin upon terms
which are mutually acceptable,
thus making it possible to bring
the important work of the confer.
ence to a successful issue.
The following is we think the
mainsketch of the salient features;
What Russia has lost by the
war:
Millions in warships.
Immense quantities of war ma
terial.
Millions in Dalmy and Port Ar
thur.
Millions in Manchurian railway
adventure.
Part of Sakhalin.
Asiatic commercial prestige.
Asiatic political prestige.
What Japan has gained:
A great increase in her navy.
Much war plumber.
Part of Sakhalin.
Asiatic commercial prestige.
Asiatlc political prestige.
The admiration of the world.
The fear of patrouizing and in
sOlent powers.
Great honor for her broad mind
ed Difference to the world wide
Judgment that peace was in order
The Philadelphia Record com
menting on the result asks anC
answers the question-WhOse is
the victoryg
Even the qualification of having
secured a "peace with honor
must be denied to Russia. Honor
was lost by Russia before a gur
had been fired; her duplicity. hel
broken promises with respect tt
the evacuation of Manchuria, haC
made contemplate even while the
ridiculous Alexieff was still posing
as the "Viceroy of the East.
She has been pitchforked out OIL
her "Viceroyalty" after an un
broken series of humiliating de
feats. She has been reduced t,
lmpotency as a naval power for {
generation to come. The rotten
ness of her civil and military,ad
ministration has been exposed t,
the sight of an unfeeling and un
sympathetic world.
If Japan had gone to war mere
~ to humble Russia what more
could she have accomplished.
