A Vermillion dispatch 1t has
been a good many years since the farmer
of Clay County was confronted with
such a hard problem of getting his corn
out of the field. Everything has and is
continually going against lin In the
first place heavy winds broke down the
stalks. Then came the heavy rains
which have continued all fall. The past
week has been good for corn husking.
But now, with all other conditions favor
able, comes a hig shortage of corn pick
ers. Although the farmer is offering
from 4 to 5 cents, pickers annot be

their Office Without partiality or
prejudice" and by Section a
violation of the oath is made a
crime. The wholesale disfran-
chisement of negroes and some
foreign whites cannot possibly be
accomplished under the proposed
amendment, except the registrars
execute their Office with unlawful
"Partiality," and if they do, they
become criminals under our State
Constitution. Even independent
of this criminal aspect, such an
administration of Constitutional
provision would mean a lowering
of official moral tone TO the point
of degradation
i. Under Our present election
law, election officials are appointed
by the Governor by and with the
advice and consent of the Senate.
Does anyone think that Governor
VARIED would appoint election
officials who would allow registrars
of voters to violate their Constitu-
tional duties? The managers will
find it necessary, therefore, in
order to get subservent and fraud
rlent registrars, to amend the cleo
ton law again and take the power
Of appointing election officials
away from the Governor.
5. Under the present election
law, there is an appeal from the
decision of the registrars. Even
if this appeal is allowed to remain,
it would amount to but little. No
exact record could be kept of the
examination in CONSTITUTE II al
law, and if it could be, the fraud
would consist probably not so
much in the judgment of the reg
istrars on the particular question
as in the character of the question
as compared with questions asked
a multitude of white men whom
the registrars desire to have as
voters. Or the right to appeal
should be taken away altogether.
These things will certainly fol-
low the adoption Of the amend
ment, as they are absolutely neces-
sary to its successful operation in
DISTINGUISHING the negroes. And
for these things in Maryland no
racial self-defense can be pleaded
in justification.
If these things happen. then
Maryland will be overwhelmingly
Democratic which means that it
will be in the clutch of the Demo
cratic managers. All the fruits
of independent toll will be swept
away in few months, and we
will settle back to the kind of gov
eminent we had prior to 1895.
Ioppoae this amendment because
it is fraudulent attempt to under
mine the LConstitution of the
United States, which, as lawyer,
have sworn to support.
I oppose it because it necessari-
ly requires fraudulent and even
criminal administration to make it
perform the service expected of it.
l oppose it because it will utter
ly destroy the uplifting power and
influence of the independent voter
for good government.

A DARING POLITICAL Trick.

OF dishonesty which consists in
the use of tricky and unfair meth
DDS to achieve success, never ben
efits a party. 1t may temporarily
aid the leaders who resort to it,
but its influence on the fortunes
OF the party is altogether bad. It's
faint clings to the organization
long after the purpose for which
it is used is forgotten. This is
strikingly shown by the cloud Of
independent Democrats which OBJ
secures the outlook of the party
at every election. They fill with
doubt and dismay the minds of
the leaders, which are singularly
open to apprehension. These in
dependents are as fond of their
party as the managers, and their
devotion is far more sincere and
unseltsh, but they do not like de-
ceit and double-dealing. Expert
ence has taught them that their
party is not helped, but injured by
fraud and unworthy intrigue.
The independents are fond of
their party, but they want it to
be a party of principle and not a
close corporation run in the selfish
interests of few individuals. Pol
tiles ought to be the highest of
all callings, but the Democratic
leaders have at times so conduct
ed campaigns and 50 missed their
opportunities afterwards as to fill
a large body of their followers
with aversion and disgust.
They have most lavish1y sowed
the seeds Of suspicion and they
cannot be surprised if they are
now reaping a bountiful and dis
astrous harvest. Were the dis
tranchising amendment a purely
disinterested effort Of party admin
istration it would be closely scru-
tinted and by none more than by
those Democrats who prefer an
honest party to tainted success.
The leaders have established their
reputation Of the party under their
management by series of acts
which are familiar to the public,
and they cannot escape the logical
result.
The character of the amendment
was in the first place suspected be-
cause they are suspected and be
cause they widely differed from
the executive Of the state, who
had been chosen by a majority
of untrammeled Democrats. A
closer inspection Of this remark
able document has fully justified
the worst fears of all good citizens.
1t is not only another political
trick Of the managers, but it is the
most insidious and at the same
time the most daring of all the
tricks yet invented by them for
nulifying the will Of the people
and converting themselves into an
oilgarchy in both city and state.
If the amendment is passed they
will be able not only to obtain
firmer control of the state, but al
50 of the city of Baltimore. With
packed legislature, which the
amendment would conveniently
and easily provide, they would
be able to repeal the charter of
the city and enact whatever laws
might suit their interests and pur-
poses. It,does not seem wise for
the citizens Of Baltimore to take
any chances in a matter of such
vast Importance. Baltic. News.

The Teachers Lantern.
In the Art Museum at Boston
there is very significant memorial
of this unparalleled scene. The
great American genius, Washing
ton Blliston, took it as subject for
an historical painting. He left it
unfinished, freely admitting his
failure. It was beyond his art in
particular to paint the face of Bel
shazzar on receiving his doom.
The scene has been the theme of
several poems of unusual power.
Byron, Heine, Croly, and Mi1man
have all treated it with their gift
ed pens.
Daniel, the abstemious, stood in
the presence of the most luxurious
banquet ever spread. His temper
ance was a jewel which outshone
all others.
y
The gains of temperance have
marked illustration in current
events. The Japanese are abstem-
ious. The Russians are not.
Rulers have moral response
bility incident upon their high
position. To this Be1shazzar was
reCreant.
=
The character Of Daniel is all
the more lustrous when compared
to that of Belshazzar. He was
faithful to God and truth.
Daniel made small account of
material rewards. He served God
not for the profit there was in it.
