Hut in the matter of the .Mary
land election there are some things
which stand out too clearly to lie statute law
muddled by any partisan preju
dice or by any personal interest
that may seek to becloud it.
The disfranchisement of the
negro in Maryland lias been de
feated. One United States senator
and a number of leading Demo
crats who followed him, voting
against Arthur (iorman and the
bulk of the Democratic party, ami
.joining their forces to the Hcpub-
licans and to the large negro vote
itself, defeated the Hoc amendment
which would have given Mary
land the protection enjoyed by so
many of the Southern states.
There are two parties in Mary
land; Republicans and Democrats.
Ami henceforward, the negro
stands distinctly as the balance ol
power oetween them.

Bookstands suitable for mlnature vol

Book blocks are most useful. These
consist of heavy shaped pieces gif wood

quite Indispensable In keeping any
number of books together on the tattle.
They coat very little to make, und If
the brocade Is well stretched over the
wood and ualled down with tiny up

vote with all its venality, with all
its ignorance, with all its prejudice
and with all its corruption is there
to Htay and to menace political life
in Maryland for an indefinite num
ber of years.
The only possible lesson which
the Maryland election can I tear to
Georgia is the warning to do in
time what is necessary to l>e done
| in this vital matter. Maryland is
half Northern and half Southern,
und therefore, half of Maryland
does not feel or care altout this
negro problem as we do in Georgia.
For Georgia is almost exclusively
Southern. The few Northern peo
ple who live in our state are an
honor to it and are as. strong or
stronger than any Southerner in
their demand and insistency for
white supremacy.
Hut one of two things stands out
crystal clear in this emergency.
Either we must get rid of this
shadow of a black balance of pow
er or we must make into a statute
law the precaution of a free white
primary to protect the people of
the state.

It is hard sometimes to make a merchant believe that
somebody else can collect money from people whom he
looks upon as deadbeats, yet we are in a position to con
vince the most skeptical that we can do that very thing.
During the past twelve years we have collected over a
million accounts from people who had been dunned in
every conceivable way; people whose creditors never ex
pected to recover a dollar.
We guarantee to collect five times as much as our fee
amounts to, and we expect no percentage on the collec
tions until we succeed; after we succeed we ask only six
per cent. If you will write us we will introduce you to a
new method of bringing dead beats to book, a method
that very seldom fails.
