Democratic Outlook for the State.

The ticket nominated by the Democratic
State Convention on the .Sth inst, has
been received with great satisfaction by
the party throughout the entire State.
The party is thoroughly united and all the
indications point to rousing majority tor
the ticket in November next.
The Democratic convention was an as
sembly of Democrats, who met together
for the purpose of mutual consultation and
counsel. and to ascertain what the wishes
of the party in the State were, and then
as far as possible crafty those wishes.
The voice of every member Of the conven-
tion was heard and after full and free
interchange of views the ticket was chosen.
And being thus nominated it is not strange
that it is so satisfactory to the rank and
file of the party. Judge Crothers is one
of the ablest men in the State and the
gentlemen who are associated with him on
the ticket are men of the highest character
and fitness for the offices for which they
have been named.
The Republican convention which met
and nominated a State ticket was perhaps
the most thoroughly boss ridden conven-
ton that has ever assembled in this State.
1t was from start to finish under the alb
solute control of Sidney L. Mudd and
William Fl. Jackson, two of the chief
apostles of the most pronounced type OF
political corruptionists in the State. Mr..
Gather and those nominated with him are
gentlemen against whom we would not
utter word, but that they were nominated
BY convention Of the worst boss-ridden
type, every man in Maryland who reads
at all knows.
And let it be understood, that if the
Republicans get control Of the State, Mudd
and jackson are not the sort of politicians
to keep their hands off the administration.
They are too practical and, too practiced
for that. And SO Mr.. Gather and the
legislature would find themselves dominat-
ed by these two distinguished political
purists
At this particular juncture, when such
men as Mudd and Jackson are in the sad
die in the Republican party, it would not
be less than disaster to the State to
have that party put in control of its affairs.
Since 1867 the Democratic party has
administered the affairs of our State except
for the brief period of four years. We
take pride in pointing to the record of that
party, to show that in all these years the
affairs Of the State have been carefully ad
ministered, its large debt paid, its public
schools built up and its people made pros
porous and happy.
The Democratic advocate., 1907-08-23

Maryland. Another reason is that ifthey had
followed the Democratic example, their Sena.
torial candidates would have been unmasked,
and if Messrs. Mudd and jackson had been
forced into the open, the State ticket wo uld
have been still more handicapped by the bur-
den of carrying them along with it.
To sum up: The Republican State Conven-
ton has nominated for Governor man whose
ability and integrity are recognized by the
people of Maryland, without respect to party.
This nomination was made by a convention
dominated by influences which the people may
have abundant reason to fear and distrust.
This convention, in respect to the ticket 1t has
placed in the field and the platform which 1t
adopted, was controlled automatically by Rep
resentatives Mudd and Jackson. There was
time when the Democratic party was under
the sway of bosses, who ruled it with rod OF
iron. The Republican party has that unenvi'
able distinction today. In fact, the two par.
ties seem to have reversed their former posi-
tions. The Democratic party, as its State
convention demonstrated conclusively. is alb
SOlutely uuDOSSeu anu lECCs hO AsOPub''S@"
party is under the domination of two men who
dictate what it's members and conventions shall
do. To this dictatorship all Republicans, high
and low, influential or obscure-from the At.
torney. General of the United States to the
humb mblest ward worker-are forced to bow.
Judge Crolhers was the choice of II conven-
ton of Democrats, who nominated him after
free and full discussion, without dictation from
any source. He was the choice of the Demo i
cratic people and was selected by methods
which the people approve. If he is elected,
| the only influence which has a claim on him
will be the people.
After full consideration of the different
methods by which the candidates of the two
| conventions were nominated, the men and in
auence behind them and the claims which can
be made upon them by reason of these infiu.
enees, it remains for thoughtful citizens, at
this, the first state of the campaign, to use
their own best judgment as to which ticket
would best promote the interests OF the State.
