THE MAST OF THE TAME.


The spectacle Of a great piece Of
red painted steel caried through the
streets Of Washington yesterday
gavs a third Of tragic recollection To
trose who witnessed il. This was
the mast Of the battleship Maine,
with its fighting top thst for years
protruded from the waters OF Havana
harbor as a reminder Of the treacher-
Gus destruction Of that vessel the
18th Of February, 1898. Over liz.
teen yeais have elapsed since the ex-
plosion Of a mine beneath the huh OF
the ship as she Jay at anchor, sup
posedly perfect security. Since
that time events have marched with
lapidity. The United States has
gone to war with Spain and destroy
ed its colonial power and has ex.
tended It's own ju -isdiction far be-
yond the seas, becoming itself pos

a symbol Of American readisess to
undertake dangerous duty in the
interests Of humanity. The inter-

Maine, was sn.h an act, and While It

ELECTION BOARD STANDS PAT

The board based its decision upon
an opinion Of its counsel, former

he held that in case Of vacancy il

that the successor must be Of the

THE EXTRA SESSION.

The extra session Of Congress call
ed by the President for the purpose, il
is said, of revising t.e.tarih convened
on Monday last, and the country is
waiting with drawn breath the out
come Of its work.
The country has been getting a.
long prosperously and well up to the
preseht and we saw no reason as
stated sometime since, for an extra
session which means putting tho peo-
pie to an immense expense which
we say is unnecessary. The gener-
al session would have Dten sufficient
time for the enactment Of a rev
tariff according and along the
lines promised the people ia The Bal
timore Democratic National platform
and we rather think ere many days
the people of this country will think
even next December was too soon.---
According to the best information
we can get of the proposed new
tariff there are going to be some and
even many drastic changes, 50 radi-
cal and extreme that our American
industries will have to compete with
foreign, which means that the wages
of the American laborer is either 60
ing to be severely cut or the mills
and factories will have to shut down
and close. While the laborer in the
large factories and mills will suffer
in being thrown out of work or by
a severe cut 10 their wages it looks
like the poor farmer, the man who
tills the soil and keeps the world 60
ing is to be the worst sufferer. 1t
will be due to the fact that they will
no longer receive the remunerative
prices for their foodstuffs that they
have heretofore received. The cost
of foodstuffs which the consumer
eats can not be lessened unless the
farmer is made sufferer. Ia lohg and
short it will be a case, following the
new tariff, of little money in eli eula-
iation to buy even at low prices.
We think ami believe and again
repeat that the calling of the extra
session If Congress is an unnecessary
expense to the people and that the
results Of the new tariff instead OF
making living and other conditions
in this country better it will make
them worse The only kind Of tariff
that will suit the people and con
tinue the prosperity Of this reai
nation is tariff for protection. That
this Is tue has been demonstrated
more than once and will be lesson
taught again in the near future.

Il is said that the Postmaster
General will recommend to the
President that he appoint Col. Sher-
lock Swami, Postmaster of Balti
more. The Maryland delegation in
Congress whose districts lie wholly
or partly in Baltimore with the ex-
ception Of Congressman Smith re-
commended the appointment of Col
Rawlins who has served for many
years in the Post Office.
The turning down Of these Con
gresham means the turning down Of
the organization, means the recogni-
ton of so called spurious retormers
in preference to the men who have
always fought for DemocI attic lrin-
eiples within the party lines. The
President, il is said, is taking a hand
in the Senatorial fight 10 Maryland
and this appointment demonstrates
that it is likely true as Swami has
announced himself as for Marbury
and Lee. A hot old time is in store
in Maryland politics during The next
few months and we await with de-
light the outcome. Let the fur Hy
boys, we are good spectators.
