The two latest recruits 10 the army OF

ocratic nomination for governor. are Llyod
Wilkinson and former Senator Johnnie E.
Beasman, of Carroll county, both of whom
have heretofore been prominently identif-
ed with the state organization of theil

For rs years Mr.. Wilkinson has been a
lieutenant of United States Senator John
Walter Smith. who is backing the candi-
dacy Of Emerson c. Harrington for noml-
nation for governor.
Former Senator Johnnie Beasman, like
Mr.. Wilkinson. is breaking the ties of a
lifetime in joining the Lee forces. He has
represented Carroll, his home county. in
the House of Delegates and In the Senate
He was tentative candidate for the
Democratic nomination for governor in
the early stages of the present campaign,
but he never pushed his case actively.

rha Eaatast COLOR.

It Is said that the fastest colors on
the market are what are known
among dyers AS hydrosulphite colors
that are dyed with hydrosulphite in a
caustic bath. These colors are as near
~ fast as any can be made and have
been adopted by our government to be
used In army uniforms.
The dyeing of these colors on cotton
yarn Is simple, especially when the
Scotch tub system Is employed. The
proper way to dye these colors Is to
use the vacuum type of dye machine,
as the dyestuff experts hold that all
air should be eliminated from the cot
ton before the dyestuff is applied, and
this type of machine is best suited for
that purpose, because in this system
the cotton is stationary and the dye
liquor is forced through the cotton by
means of pumps.-St Paul Pioneer
Press.

lincoln Among othsr Men.

Some years ago a series Of pictures
was printed showing Lincoln in many
attitudes, either alone or In company
with statesmen or military men IN
Washington or In camp. Attention
was called by the writer, who had as
sembled the pictures, to the singular
isolation and dignity Of Lincoln when
taken with any group Of men. They,
almost without exception, showed that
they were conscious OF observation, at
titudes were studies, and the effort to
look well In the picture was often evi.
dent. No matter in what company he
was, the president seemed not to be
conscious either Of the artist, Of him.
self or Of the men who surrounded
him. He stood or sat alone, as If he
were an impersonal figure representing
native strength and unique subiimity
OF character. Christian Register.

Traditions of Sandwich.

Sandwich is the hub Of the universe
of golf In times medieval it was
one Of England's five gates, through
which passed heroes and saints, priests
and kings. Here it was that King
Arthur set out to play the emperor Of
Rome with Excalibur, and here on bis
return Guinevere welcomed him. st.
Paul, says tradition, landed at Sand
witch, but it is history. that marks 1t
as the landing place Of St Augustine.
Picts and Scots were here beaten back
by the army of the eastern Julian, and
Theodosius landed to repel the Saxons.
Beckett escaped from England via
Sandwich to France. Here Richard L
landed after his Austrian imprison-
ment and John, king Of France, came

AS the days wax hotter and hotter. the
list of candidates grows. Every Office at
the disposal of the voter seems to be in
demand, except that of Delegate to the
General Assembly. The list of Legisla-
tive aspirants does not seem to increase
rapidly. this too, despite the fact that
from the standpoint of the voter and tax
payer, it is one of the most important
offices to be filed.
The Legislature this winter will be
confronted with law-making opportunii
ties that are worthy of every citizens
weighty consideration. and it is rather a
reflection on or system of government
that so few aspire to this public work.
There are any number of useless
Offices and commissions sapping the
public treasury, which should be abolish
ed. that can only be done away with by
legislative action. And among other
important measures that will be up for
consideration is that of Statewide pro-
hibition amendment.
Every legislative aspirant should be
compelled to place himself on record con-
corning his position on questions likely
to be considered at the coming Legisla-
ture, and if he fails to make his stand
clear, or attempts to side-step, he is moi
worthy the support of the voter.

REPORTING FROM MEMORY.
When Note Taking Was Forbidden In

Wnen note akin0 wac Forbidden IN

Holcroft's feat in memorizing the
whole play OF Figaro" after hearing
1t ten times could probably have been
easily outdone by Memory" Woodfall,
who In the days when note taking was
forbidden in the house of commons
acquired fame by the extraordinary
power of reporting from memory the
speeches he heard in that august as
sembly.
His usual attitude during debate,
says the London Chronicle, was to close
bis eyes and lean forward with both
hands upon his stick. being so well ac-
quainted with the tone and manner OF
the several speakers that he seldom
changed his attitude save to catch the
name of a new member.
The speeches thus memorized he
printed in his journal, and so wonder
full was his memory that he could re-
tain full recollection of debate fort
night after, though having listened to
many long nights Of speaking in the
interval. He used to say he could put
any speech away on corner shelf Of
bis mind for future reference.

William Jennings Bryan. at the Lyric
Theatre. Baltimore, recently said that
ours is the best theory of government the
world has ever known and prophesied il
is to become the government of the
future.
$50, would have You understand the
controlling principle of this form of gov
eminent; it is that the people have the
right to what they want"
Once more, to quote Mr.. Bryan in the
same address: I'm government you
must have the rule of the majority or the
rule of the minority; you must give the
presumption to one or the other. / hold
that the people have-the right to make
their own mistakes-that the majority
should rule"
Mr.. Bryan stated great truth which
has been from the beginning the key
stone in the arch of our government.
The people have the right to what they
want when they want it. This is the
basis upon which the Anti-S Saloon League
is making its appeal to the citizenship Of
Maryland-that majority of the people
of the state want vote On prohibition,
and that, wanting it, they have the right
lit; and, having the right, no member
Of the Legislature should deny them the
exercise of that right.
The only way to discover the wishes Of
asmajority of the people of the state on a
given matter is TO submit that matter to
them by state wide vote and let them
express their preference.
This, we understand, is the present
policy of the Anti-Saloon Leagne in the
handling of this important question,
namely, that the next LEGISLATURE Of
Maryland shall pass an enabling act sub
hitting the question of statewide pro.
hibition to the voters of Maryland for
their ratification Or rejection. This is a
sane, democratic. constitutional method
of handling questions of this character,
and We are frank to say that we see nc
objection to having the question adjudi.
Gated in this way.

To the Voters.

The Republican candidate for Clerk of the
Circuit Court is to be Mr. Charles 8. Peacock, the
very capable recording Clerk of the office. The
Republicans have thus met the requirements OF
good and popular government in their candidate
by offering to the public their most experienced
and efficient man.. The Democrats should.accept
this challenge by choosing me as their candidate.
this will completely offsetany advantages claimed
for their nominee by the Republicans. Other
wise it may be reasonably expected. that the
large body of self respecting men who desire
honesty, efficiency and capacity in public officials
irrespective of party, will continue this Office in
Republican control for another six years.
