Republicans Divided.

A staff writer of the Baltimore
Sun contributes very interesting
article upon the Repu blicans situa-
ton in this State from which we
take the following extract:
Publicly Mr.. Parran, Mr.. Stone,
Mr.. Mudd. Mr.. Wachter and the
rest will say that the Republicans
are together and expect to elect six
Congressman from Maryland. Pri-
vately they expect nothing of the
kind. and the truth is the party
came back from Chicago goes into
the coming campaign worse split
up and with more bitterness
than in many years past. 1t is
even more intense than the Mudd-
McComas feud that ragged all
over the State for two years prior
to the elevation of the late Senator
McComas toa Federal iudgeship.
For instance, here are some Of
the present antagonisms existing
among the Republicans leaders in
the State
Mr.. Stone and Mr.. Mudd are
open enemies and make no secret of
the feelings they entertain toward
each other.
Mr.. Parran, head OF the State
Committee. and Mr.. Stone, the head
of the local organization. do not even
communicate by wireless.
Diplomatic relations, for the first
time in many years, are completely
ruptured between Mr.. Mudd and
Uncle Bill Jackson. the leader of
Eastrr1 Shore Republicanism.
Mr.. p l. Goldsborough and Nr.
Stone have parted political company
and look upon each other with col d
disdain.
There is anything but political
amity or cordiality between Col.
George A. Pearre, the Western
Maryland leader, and Mr.. Mudd.
who have never been able to hit IL
off, together.
The hostility between Mr.. Stone
and Mr.. Wachter continues uuabat-
ed. and they are as bitter toward
each other as il is possible Tor poli
ticians to be.

Southern White man who ale the

Southern white men who take the
law into their own hands do not go
TO the extremes which have charac-
teriZed the out break In the capital
OF Illinois. They do not, except in
the case Of Atlanta. wreak vengeance
indiscriminately upon the guilty
and the innocent black. They do
not resort 10 inceDdiarism. They
do not terrOrize the city for 4s hours
and degenerate into pillsging, des-
troying mob. They act outside OF
the law. it is true. But they go
about their law breaking systemati-
cally and in the spirit of men who
are defending their homes from the
worst type of criminal. They do
not lynch an octogensrian negro.

lust.
Hereafter let the virtuous North
ern journalists who so dearly love

the wickedness of lynch law. re.

demonstrates that politics and sec.

A tremendous multitude of en-
thusiastic supporters greeted Mr..
William J. Bryan, at Lincoln Ne
braska. on Wednesday last, upon
the occasion of his formal acceptance
of the Democratic nomination for the
presidency of the Nation. Mr..
Bryan s speech. which was an un-
answerable arraignment OF Republi-
can misgovernment, was. in itself, a
knockout blow TO the pretentious ut
terances OF his opponent, aud one is
almost moved 10 pity for the sorry
predicament of Mr.. Taft. as portray
ed by the singing criticisms OF the
Democratic candidate.
Mr.. Bryan s speech of acceptance
was about one third the length OF
that delivered by Mr.. Taft, and yet
it floors the principal contentious OF
the latter at the very threshold OF
the campaign. Mr.. Bryan spoke for
the people. His arguments cannot
DO met by the Republican champions
OF predatory wealth and special in
terests. He will make additional
speeches along similar lines a little
later on, and by the time be has fully
presented the impregnable argument
in behalf OF the American people
there will not be left a grease spot
OF the whole Taft outfit. Exchange.

The Race War" At Spring
field.

The riOting. lyhching of negroes
and destruction of property in
Springfield, H.. show that racial
antagonism in the United States is
not bounded by sectional and geo
graphical lines. Illinois is Repuli-
can State, Georgia is Democratic
State. Less than q year ago Atlanta
was the scene of rioting. Negroes
were lynched after series OF crimes
against women which stirred the
people Of that Southern city to their
profoundest depths. But the sober
second thought OF Atlanta prevailed.
The conservative and law-abiding
South condemned the excuses of mob
rule aud the mob was soon brought
under control. The provocation was
great. but enlightened public opinion
In the South was no less outspoken
in denouncing lawlessnessi in Atlanta
then was public opinion in other
parts OF the United States.
II is ESSENTIAL TO the proper solu-
ton OF the race problem in this
country that Americans should
divest themselves OF sectional and
political prejudices when there are
manifestations of racial antipathy
and outbreakes of mob violence. Since
last Friday evening the capital of
Illinois has been the scene OF mob
violence on q scale greater than that
which Atlanta Witnessed two years
ago. A negro committed an atroci-
Gus crime in Springfield. The re-
suit was an uphesral. Two negroes
have been lynched in retaliation =
one Of them a man more than so years
old, who according to the dispatches
had been guilty OF no offense. A
mob OF 5000 men established reign
of terror in Springfield. The torch
was applied freely in the negro
quarter. Lawlessness continued
after the Governor of Illinois had
taken measures to restore order by
filing the city with Statemilitiamen.

a Pauperized Electorate.

That the Democratic National com
mittee is experiencing difficulty in
raising adequate funds may we'll
merit credence when such unusual
methods are mooted as inducing la
Dor unions 10 impose an assessment
for Mr., Bryan. or sending out solici-
tors to make direct appeals and to
take up collections. 1t is impossible
not 10 sympathize, with Mr.. Bryan's
managers merely. but with any
honest campaign committee which
endeavors TO raise money as it should
be raised-by the voluntary gift OF
the many voters Interested in the
election. The truth is that our
electorate has been pauperized. 1t
has been led, with good ground, to
believe that individuals seeking
private gain or public Office would
put up" the money TO run the cam
paign. Thus only a day or so ago it
was announced in Philadelphia that
the Republican officeholders in that
city would beassessed a certain per-
centage OF their salaries. And for
what? Not to carry Pennsylvania,
but to amass a corruption fund for
other States. The voter needs to be
enlightened as to his duty to con-
tribute 10 cause in which he is
vitality interested. His present atti-
tude reminds one of the anecodote
told Of stingy church member, who
always declined to contribute to
church expenses, because. as he said
he believed, salvation was free. A
wise old deacon who had labored
wife him retorted: My frie nd. we
must discriminate; salvation is free
but religion is expensive. Politics,
like religion, is expensive. The
trouble is that the wrong people
have been anxious to foot the BILL

While the hits were plentiful Limric

were hardly safe. Carlisle allowed
nine hits and struck out six men for
