WILL You GO IT ALoNE2 ,

One weighty objection to the proposed con-
stitutional amendment is that its adoption will
at once create in this State two classes-the
governing and the governed. These classes will
notstand equally before the law, as one will be
barred from holding any Office, as we'll as from
voting and jury service. A considerable por-
tion Of our population will be reduced to
practically the same relative position as the
serfs of Russia. The worst of il is that the
classification will not be made upon the same
ground of fitness or intelligence. but according
establish an aristocracy. which is contrary to
every principle of Americanism, and it is to be
accomplished by trick and in defiance of the
Federal Constitution.
1t has been pointed out by leading Demo-
cratic lawyers that the amendment will, if
adopted, eliminate from The voting lists all
native Maryland negroes but will not affect
those coming from other Southern States ex-
cept Delaware and Louisiana. because in those
States negroes voted before January l, 1869.
Now it is argued with good deal Of truth that
if the negroes are deprived from voting and
made an inferior class in the eyes of the law,
with no door of hope left open for them, many
of them will migrate to States where they will
be treated better. Who can blame them if they
do? But the question for our Baltimore
county farmers, housewives, quarrymen and
Others who are already badly off for labor help,
is who are going to take the places of John,
Alex, Thomas and Cynthia, whose presence
seems so necessary to get in the corn, drivet the
mules, drill the rocks, cook the meals and
wash and iron the clothes? Are the white
people of this county, where the proportion OF
colored voters is about one in nine, so afraid OF
negro domination that they are going to at-
tempt to drive away that help they have, when
they so badly need more? We are aware that
this is not the highest ground upon which to
appeal, but it is a very practical one and some
times practical arguments receive more atten-
tion than merely ethical ones.

VOTE FOR YOURSELF.

One of the most peaceful political campaigns
that this county has ever experienced is draw
ing to a close, and for the reason that it has
been so very quiet, many of the leaders are
uncertain as to the result. As this county is
normally Democratic by large majority, the
workers in that party profess to believe that
their ticket will win with great ease. and of
course circumstances throw the chances greatly
in their favor The Republican campaigners,
though, seem greatly encouraged, and this;
added to the fact that so many voters are saying
very little about their intentions, gives an ele
ment Of uncertainty and causes the Democrats
some private concern.
1t would be ridiculous for us to say that the
county will go to the dogs if the Democratic
candidates are elected next month. They are
largely the same men that have held Office for
many years past and they are governed by pre-
cisely the same dominating influence so there
is every reason to believe that the success Of
the Democratic ticket will mean continuance
of precisely the same conditions that we have
experienced since the year 1900. If that is
what the taxpayers want they should vote the
Democratic ticket next Tuesday week If the
property in this county is fairly assessed if the
taxes are no higher than they ought to be, if
all the money raised for county purposes is
wisely expended, if no political favoritism
governs the appropriations made by the County
Commissioners or the appointments of subor-
dinate officials by them, if the police force is
doing its whole duty and without regard to
''pull' or political affiliation, if the Demo-
cratic candidates for the House of Delegates
are not under the domination of boss and
can be depended upon to reflect the will of the
people rather than to do the bidding Of po-
litical schemer and despot, if the Democratic
candidates for the other offices 10 be filled this
fall are more able men than the Republicans
have put up for the same positions and, in adj
dition, are free from any alliance or obligation
that will prevent them from acting solely in
The interest of the whole people, then there is
no reason for Democrat to vote the Repub-
lican ticket and no reason for Republican to
vote the Democratic ticket, unless it be to COM
pliment personal friend.
If, on the other hand, the satisfactory con-
dition of things outlined above does not exist,
then business common sense, as well as civic
duty, demands that all Republicans, and all
Democrats who wish to get all benefits of gov
ernment for which they are paying and to
which they are entitled should vote the Re-
publican ticket. In point of ability the candi-
dates on the two tickets are about evenly
matched but the question is, are the Demo-
cratic candidates free agentsP They are nearly
all hold-overs or former officials; judge them
by the past. Let every voter look into this
matter and vote for the best interest of his
family, his county and his own pocketbook.
Let him vote for his own best interests and not
to keep up political machine, although some
of its members and beneficiaries may be his
good friends and neighbors.

cellent cast supports Mr.. Iackaye including
Harry Hillard, Thomas McGrane, Clara
