All Indications point TO the fact that
Democrats Of independent proclIyiries. who
switched of from the party in the cam
paign Of 1895. when it was asserted they
wanted to put down the B0es-Rule Of
German and Rasin. are with the Demo
cratic parts At this time. The very logic
Of the situation would make it 90. For
while the Democratic State Convention was
perfectly untrammeIled body, seeking to
crafty the wishes Of the people in the
selection Of candidates, it Is notorious fact
that the Republican State Convention was
under the absolute domination Of two men,
"Sidney and me.
So that the independents, to be at all
consistent. must come back 10 the party IN
the present contest, and they are doing 50.
Mr.. Gather, clean and capable man,
was, after good deal Of hesitation, ac-
eepted as a candidate for Governor. BY
''Sidney and me who expected that his
name would throw glamor Of resPecta-
bility over their doings, and would give
them chance to carry out their plans.
But let them remember some recent
history. In 1895 the Democratic party
had for its candidate for Governor, one Of
the most respectable and respected citizens
Of Baltimore. Mr.. John f. Hurst. Not
withstanding his high personal character,
be was overwhelmingly defeated, because
it was alleged that he was the candidate
Of Ring.
On the same principle. what is to be-
come Of Mr.. Gather? Why, like Mr..
HURT, the independent vote will be against
him. and he will 90 down Such men az
Randolph Barton, Roger W. Gull and
Leigh Bonsal, three Of the most prominent
independent Democrats Of Baltimore city,
have already declared their hearty support
Of the present Democratic State ticket.
Then again, the powerful influence oi
the Baltimor Sun, which was against rs
in 1895, is now earnestly supporting the
ticket, and there il no agency in the State
that Is as potential az this.
The Republican State ticket Is 20 weight
ed down by jackson and Mudd that no
amount Of respectability in the personnel
Of their candidates can ever lift up the
ticket to success.
The people well understand. that if
"Sidnsy and Me can name the ticket,
and it should succeed, that they would
dominate the administration. So that,
the hardest blow that could be struck at
''Sidpey and Me- would be to defeat the
Republican State ticket, which they made,
and relegate these high Priests Of Repub-
lican Bossism to the oblivion from which
they ought never to have emerged.
