cratic and Republican election
officials. The Republicans had
very few contests in their pri-
maries, but wherever there was
a contest the Organization Re-
publicans won out, and the
opening of the Republican bal
lot boxes showed they cheated
their own candidates as badly
as McNulty was cheated. The
result is that both sides have
been caught cheating. One just
as bad as the other. in proper
tion to the voting. AND IT
WAS MIR. GORMAN WHO
DEMANDED THAT L II Il
TRUTH BE KNOWN.
Now. what of the candidates:
We people of the Eastern Shore
know Mr.. Goldsborough. We
know that he is RING POLL
TICIAN. who will do anything
to carry his point, and his loud
professions of goodness at this
time are only INTENDED TO
FOOL the voters who do not
know him. Like every other
Republican who has been nomi-
mated for Governor of Mary
land, he knows that he cannot
be elected by Republican votes,
and so every kind of an ingen-
ious argument is made to catch
enough Democrats to turn the
tide in his favor. For the first
few weeks of the campaign it
looked as if he would succeed
in fooling lots of people but the
tide has turned, and the Democ-
racy of Maryland realizes that
the LIVING ISSUE in Mary
land is WHITE SUPREMACY.
1t is an issue that cannot down
so long as the ignorant negro
has the same rights and privi-
leges as the WHITE MAN. So
long as the Republican party is
controlled by the negro vote, so
long will that issue live and be
most formidable. The fact that
the colored man is a dominant
factor in the Republican party
was made known during the
Lowndes administration, when
they demanded to be put In
office, and it had to be done.
Wherever the Republican party
is in power you will find negro
officials appointed over the
heads of white citizens.
Then look at the difference
between the States governed by
the Democrats and the States
governed by the Republicans.
In Republican Pennsylvania,
West Virginia and 9th.
er Republican strongholds,graft
and pillage have been the regu-
lar order Of things. High taxes
must be maintained to keep the
gang going. You don't find
snch conditions in Maryland.
All over this glorious country
you will find that Maryland has
the reputation, and has always
had, of having a clean admin
istration of affairs, honest Off
cials, and like every other
Southern State a great respect
for the rights of the plain peo.
pie.
The way to keep this State
respected, and the people as
prosperous as they now are, is
to keep in power the people who
have made the State what it is.
If you want this then vote
for German, Harrington and
Poe, the Democratic State can
didates. Mr.. German will be
the next Governor of Maryland,
and he has asked The Messen-
ger to say to the people of this
county that he will see to it that
the great Democratic policy of
building good roads for the peo-
pie shall be continued, and the
work so enlarged that every
section of our county will ulti-
mately have stone roads.
Mr.. German is a man of his
word. You who saw him and
noticed his earnest face realize
this. He is strong man, and
will wear no mans collar.
Worcester Democrats, do not
be satisfied with your intention
to cast your vote for Mr.. Cor
man, but from now until the
election work for his election.
Talk with your neighbor and
get him interested IN the cam
paign. Worcester County ex-
poets to roll up an old-fashioned
majority of one thousand for
German, Harrington and Poe.
