other people in the State, the best form
OF government.
1t is a matter of course. that when the
voter determines his duty and to assume
his responsibility at the ballot box, there
are many more things to be considered,
but that is the duty of all good citizens
to determine what his duty demands.
and then perform that duty as a consci-
entious man performs every duty of life.
But there is no duty more important
that confronts US all. than our duty to our
country, save and except always our
religious duties. Voting is not merely
to elect one party or another-to elect
one set of men or another-but it is the
weighty responsibility OF doing mans
best to secure good government and to
preserve good government now and
for all the future for the generations to
come
If voters whole duty consists merely
in voting for his political party, or its
particular candidates, it would make
very little difference whether the people
voted or whether we had elections or
not
The elective franchise is high and
sacred power, given to the voter not
only for his own good, but it is also
sacred trust that he is to exercise for the
good OF all the people Of the State.
This is especially true at the election
in Maryland this fall. lfpeople will con-
slider the two political parties-the Dem
ocratic party and the Republican party
both of which have nominated tickets
to be voted for, and elected or defeated,
as the case may be.
The Republican party is composed Of
a conglomeTate mass of black and white
voterS-nearlv half of them being black.
The black contingent are ignorant, pref
udiced and nearly al venal. They vote
ignorantly, generally from prejudice, but
ifnot from ignorance or prejudice, then
their votes are cast for money. These
facts are well known to all and can lead
to no other results than danger to and
destruction OF, good and orderly govern
ment.
This being the case it ought to induce
all good and patriotic voters to consider
long and well before they vote to put
the Republican party in control Of the
State government for four years.
1t It's well known that large majority
of the criminal class belongs to the Re-
publican party, and in some of the coun-
ties the negroes are in majority, and in
many of the counties they hold the bal
ance of power, and in such counties it
will be dangerous if the Republicans are
in power in the State.
Il will be remembered that when in
1895, the Republicans carried the State
and elected Lloyd Lowndes Governor
of Maryland, Malster Mayor of Baltimore,
negro rowdyism was so rampant in Balti
more. that it was not safe for lady TO be
on the streets after night, and there was
a reign of terror in Baltimore City The
people of Maryland do not want to bring
about the same or worse condition
again There has been no change in
that class for the better, even if it is
not worse now than then. The only way
to avoid it is to elect the Democratic
ticket and thereby continue in control of
ih State. the party which can. and has
always controlled this class and thereby
pr served law and order and thereby
preserved the peace, quiet and prosper
ty of the people.

After writing note in which he told
his sister-tn-law that she would find
his body hanging from the ceiling of a
room In the house, Frederick s. Coburn.
80 years old, bachelor, of 36S Summer
avenue, went TO the laundry between
midnight and daylight today and
hanged himself with clothes-line. He
had wrapped shirt around his neck,
evidently in the belief that it would
lessen the pain.
The first intlmation that Mrs. Coburn,
his sister-in law. had of tho suicide was
at g. M, when she went to the
kitchen to prepare breakfast. In the
refrigerator she found note which
read as follows:
eI am going TO hang myself In
the laundry. Don't let this get to
the newspapers. Let the funeral
services be quiet, and don't forget
to collect the insurance money
Please have DR.. Bate ofiiciate."
irwin Coburn, brother of the dead
man, is at a loss to account for the
action. He said that his brother had
no great trouble of which he knew. lie
said that his brother talked nationally
last night and that he retired in his
usual good spirits. Coburn was a
metal ceiling worker.
The DR.. Bate referred to In the note
is the Rev. T. Percival Bate, pastor
Of the ST. James's Episcopal Church
He will not be able to conduct the
funeral services, however as he sailed
for Europe & short time ago.

Constantinople, Sept. 27.-Although
Germany is trying automatically in
Rome and in this city to arrange an
understanding between Italy and
Turkey over Tripoli, there is little
hope in view of the news Of the day,
that the efforts will be successful.
TIE Turkish transport Berns, which
lett this city several days ago has ar
rived at Tripoli, but whether she sue
ceeded in landing her cargo before the
arrival there Of the Italian warship is
not known. The newspapers suggest
that all Ottoman subjects refuse to
pay their debts to Italians in the
event of an Italian occupation of Tri-
poll. The authorities of Constanti-
lople have prohibited a public meet
ing of protest at Stamboul against
tbs threatening attitude of Italy.
The Tamin's leading article today
says "The Tripolitan question
brings upon the tapis the whole ques-
ton of the relation between Chris
tianity and Islam. The Turks have
ltrespassed on nobody's rights, yet
Italy is preparing to occupy Tur-
keys territory on the preteXt that
e rmanV and France have taken away
the independence of Morocco. Such
conduct is violation of the princi-
pies of international law, humanity
and civilization. 1t is evident that
there is no justice in Europe. Treat
les are merely instruments of decep-
! ton, which are destroyed when an
advantage is to be gained thereby.
The Italian aggression is really the
outcome of the animosity on the part
of Christianity towards Isman."
The Tamin regrets its former be-
/ lief in Germany's friendship and adds
that it is apparent that Turkey has
no friends in Europe.
