My SYMPHONY,

70 live content with small means, to
seek elegance rather than luxury, and
refinement rather than fashion: to be
worthy not wealthy; to study hard,
think quietly, talk gently, act frankly;
30 listen to stars and birds, to babes
and sages with open heart, bear all
cheerfully, do all bravely, await occa-
sions, hurry never: in word to let the
spiritual, unbidden and unconscious,
grow up through the common; this is
to be my symphony.-William Henry
Charming.

gans get out OF order, II is BECAUSE
they lack the necessary electricity
to enable them to perform their
regular functions. The breaking
down of one of these organs near
" always causes other trouble.
Nature can't cure then, because
your body hasn't enough electricity
to do the work, so you must assist
Nature by restoring this electricity
where it is needed.
My Electro-Vigor does this while
you sleep. It saturates the nerves
with its glowing power, and these
conduct the force to every organ
and tissue of your body, restoring
health and giving strength to every
part that is weak.
Electro-Vigor is not an electric
belt 1t is a dry cell body battery,
and makes it's own power.

The Coming County Convention.

The ADVOCATE, being the organ of the
Democratic party of the county, will do
nothing to further the interest of any par
ticular candidate for county Office, but
will stand strongly behind all the nominees
of the party after the convention has named
them.
Being desirous for the success of the
ticket and that the supremacy of the party
may be maintained in the county, the
ADVOCATE urges those who are aspiring
to Office to use moderation and fprbear-
ance, and let there be no political rancor
that will affect the candidacy of those who
may be nominated, and thus weaken our
chances Of. success.
Our Democratic friends must remember
that all who desire Office cannot be nomi-
mated, and that it shows true party loyal
ty, that the man who did not succeed in
securing the nomination, turns in and earn
esty supports the man who did. This is
what every candidate has a right to expect.
Let our coming convention meet in the
spirit of true Democracy with the purpose
of presenting to the voters of the county
the very best ticket conditions will permit.
And then let every Democrat do his best
to elect it.

MUDD JACKSON GATHER
COMBINE.
George Gather, the Nominee for
Governor, Was Formerly A
Democrat.
THE PLATFORM A PIECE OF
POLITICAL BLUFFING.

With Congressman Sydney E. Mndd in the
role of ringmaster, the republican state Con
vention met at the Maryland Theatre Wednes-
day and carried out orders by the nomination
of the following ticket:
For Governor-George R. Gather. OF Baltl-
more city.
Comptroller-Former State Senator James
FL. Baker, of Kent county.
Attorney. .General-Hammond Urner. of
Frederick.
Clerk of the Court of Appeals-Thomas
Parran, of Calvert county, the incumbent.
1t further adopted platform nearly the
whole of which was prepared by Mr.. Mudd,
with the consent of Mr.. Jackson, and it car
ried out without break or hitch the Mudd'
jackson program exactly as Mr.. Mudd di-
rected.
Rarely has there been as complete an ex-
hibition of omen power as was given by
the Southern Maryland Congressman, who
threw aside all concealment and played the
boss in a way that caused some of the more
conservative and far seeing Republicans to
feel grave doubts about the result.
No fair-minded man with a knowledge of
the facts and ordinary powers of observation
could deny that the convention was as thor
oughly bossed political gathering as was ever
held in this State, and that the man who did
the bossing was Mr.. Mudd. Not a wheel
could be turned until he gave the word, and
when he did give it the convention fairly tuin
bled over itself and enthusiastically did his
bidding. He put up men as candidates and
knocked them down with equal ease. Not
the smallest motion was made without his
direction and assent No man spoke who was
not expected TO speak, and not single move
was made from the time Chairman Parran
called the convention to order until it adjourn.
ed that had not previously been determined
upon by Mr.. Mudd.
There were some men in the convention as
delegates and some leaders outside, not dele
gates, who are totally out Of sympathy
with this program, but they were helpless to
interfere with his control and did not attempt
to do so. At times Mr.. Mudd was both die
tatorial and arrogant in the exercise of his
authority, and it was thought by some Of the
city leaders here, that he had overplayed his
hand TO a certain extent that will affect the
ticket in the city.
Benjamin Richmoad. of Allegany county
was made chairman, Albert Short, of Calvert
was chosen secretary. Both are allies of Mudd
and jackson.
Mr.. Gather Was asked if it was not true thai
he used to be Democrat. he said it was,
saying he became Republican in 1892.
The plank in the platform a primary
election law for the whole State is worse than
a disappointment. IT is piece of political
blsfhng. The whole platform is weak and
I patiently insincere.
The friends of P. l.. Goldsborough. OF
Dorchester county. are very much put out
over the treatment Mr.. Goldsborough received
from bosses Mudd and jackson, who put him
out of the race for the nomination of Cover
nor.

Art Treasures. Kept Out By High
Tariff.
From the Baltimore Sun.

From the Baltimore Sun.
In ar interview with representative OF the
Sun year ago, Sir Caspar Purdon Clark,
director of the New York Metropolitan Mu'
scum, called attention to the vast store of art
treasures kept out of America by the unrea-
sonabe tariff on art. He pointed out that
Americans owned many millions of dollars
worth of paintings, statuary, carvings, tapes
tries and gems, WHICH they kept in England,
France or Italy rather than bear the expense
of bringing them into the United States He
expressed the opinion that the abolition of
the tariff would quickly bring about the i'm
portation of these wonderful collections into
the United States
Mr.. J. PerpoHs Morgan's superb collection
of objects of art-now loaned to the Kensing.
ton Museum, London-is well known. But
the houSeful of treasures in his Princes Gate
mansion has never been on public view. One
privileged visitor, who was recently given ac-
cess 10 this collection, writes of it in the Lon
don Mall
Il saw in the course of brief half hour in
lnlS one nOuSe udrVelS Oh Art ifOm every CoI
ner of the world which must have represented
a total value of close upon $4,000, 900. A
tiny miniature lying in an open Case, with the
jewels of its frame sparkling in the sunlight,
would realize not less than $200,OO0 Pictures
by the most famous painters of all time cover
the walls heard incidentally that Mr.. Mon,
gan has 80 artists engaged in the produesi0n
of hand.painted volumes dealing with the
miniatures of his marvellous collection. Each
of these books will cost 50, 500. and it isstated
that they will be presented to the ese~ned
heads of Europe"
And these are only few of the priceless
possessions that the high tariff on art keep:
out of this country. The tariff dass not pro-
tect native artists, it is hindrance TO the de-
velopment of art in America, and it remains
only because of the, ignorance and obstinaey
of the 'standpstters. ~ who fear. TO touch a

While she used to play with me.

And slowly sink away,
Yet in my heart often prayed
That she might have longer stayed

But our care was all in vain:

With her sweetly, smiling face,
To help and cheer US on our way
As we go through this world below.

Our lovely one we loved so well?
How can il be that such a flower

The Two Conventional Contrast

44O = W.
An editorial in the .Sentinelof of last week,
under the above caption, applauds the con-
yention of the Republican party, which
was held in this city on the 9th instant
But it is really an attempt to gloss over,
apologize for ane excuse the turbulence OF
that convention, by putting 1t In contrast
with the Democratic convention which 1t
criticizes, by saying sit was unmarked by a
ripple of excitement. The other con-
vention, that is the Republican convention,
the editorial goes on to say, was marked
by differences of opinion and spirited dis
cussion, though without apparent rancor
or i'll feeling among the disputants.
That is, there was nothing special occurred,
except one man was knocked down, and
the man who did it was on the eve OF being
mobbed.
We would make no reference to this
subject at all, it not being any OF, our fu-
neral, except that the editor of the Ss"t'-
mel has endeayored to misuse the decency
and good order of the Democratic conven-
ton, to cover up the riotous conduct OF
the convention of his own party.
According to our information, all the
machinery Of the Republican convention
had been well creased and was expected to
run smoothly, and "without a ripple OF
excitement. But it had not gotten tar
on the way before it was apparent that the
machinery needed more oil, but before 1t
could be applied there was terrific ex-
plosion; down went one of the delegates,
up went the chairs, and for while pan
demonium reigned. We are told that men
rushed out of the hall with pale faces and
that the confusion was absolutely inde-
scribable.
We are glad to have Democratic conven-
ton put in contrast with such performance
i. ,t,.'' "a. = -.
as this, and we recommend to our Republican
friends, for the sake of life and limb, that
when they hold another convention here
they secure the services of a surgeon, who
must provide himself we'll with adhesive
plaster and tincture of arnica.
We are very much inclined to think,
that as result of their 6stic convention,
they are now perhaps more in need of a
political Doctor than Doctor of Medicine
or Surgery. Some of the outer sores have
healed, but many of the deeper wounds
are still fostering.

Judge Thomas.

As was anticipated, the Judicial Con-
vention which met at Ellicott City on
Wednesday last, with hearty unanimity,
nominated Judge Thomas for Chief Judge
Of the fifth judicial circuit Of Maryland.
We congratulate the Democracy of the
circuit upon having SO clean and capable a
man to vote for as Chief Judge. This is
high position and Judge Thomas fully
measures up to it. We predict his elec-
ton, without doubt, but let his friends
bestir themselves, and not from overconf-
dence, be Indifferent to proper effort.
