Pearre ana Wel Allegan « nty—The Candidates From Other Sections. | | Correxpondece of The Evening Star, CUMBERLAND, Ma, August 9, 1894, The most exciting political contest ever known in the history of Allegany county, erable campaign of 1873,when | the party had two county | | Uekets in th » how going on between George L, Wellington and Col. George A. Pearre, cx-state senator, in regard to the | republican nomination for Congress, One | | would think that a nomfnation in Allegany | | county by ihe republicans would be equiva- | i to an election in the district, which is | Montgomery, Frederick, Wash- irgton, ny and Garrett counties. Col. Pearre is making a lively fight before the primaries. He is gomg from district to dis- | trict, working from house to house in the | daytime, and addressing public meetings at | Right. He is an indefatigable worker, and | | the probabilivfes are that he will carry the i primaries in Allegany county, Between the | whig and democratic parties before the war | Allegany was always a close county, but in | | 1867 became largely democratic. Hon. Will- | fam Walsh, Josiah H. Gorden, Col. Horace | Resley, Alived Spates,Col. Richard D. John- son, Lioyd Clary, Thomas G. McCullough and others were among the great leaders of the party in those days. The leaders split in 1Ni3, and the republicans elected their county clerk, register of wills, county com- | missioners, sheriff, state’s attorney, and | all the members of the house of delegates. | | The democrats elected Thomas G. McCul- | lough state senator, who was a member of the anti-canal or anti-Gorman wing of | the party. Since then the county clerk has | | been elected three times, and is now serv- ing his fourth term, which will not expire | until 1807. When the memorable state con- | vention met in Baltimore in August, 1875, | western Maryland sent delegates favor- |able to the election of William T. | Hamilton, whose term as United States | Senator had expired in 1 All the great | leaders in Ailegany, Washington, Fred- erick aad Montgomery counties were fa- vorable to Hamilton, who also had several delegates from Baltimore city. Josiah H. | Gordon represented Allegany, George R. Freaner, Washington; Hon. John Ritchie, Frederick, and E. B. Prettyman, Mont- gomery county; John Lee Carroll of Howard county was nominated and Hamiiton, who | was indorsed by three-fourths of the de- | mocracy in the state, turned down. It was | at this time that Arthur P. Gorman showed his ability as a leader in the state. Carroll was elected or counted in hy the |courts. Wm. Pinkney Whyte was made Senator and James Black Groome elected | governor by the legislature for the unex- \pired term of Governor Whyte. In. 1879 | William T. Hamilton was elected governor, | but he had no power. The board of public works was against him, and every year re- elected Gorman president of the Chesa- | peake and Ohio canal. Gorman was elected |state senator in 1573 and United States |Senator in 1880. In the meantime Wm. | Walsh had served two terms in Congress. | In 178 the republicans elected Milton G. | Urner of Frederick county over George | Peter of Montgomery and Col. Horace Resley Gndependent) of Allegany. In Isso Urner was el over Col. James M. Sleigh of Alleza In 1882 the republi- jcans elected L: McComas of Wash- | ington county, Montgomery Blair of | Montgomery county. In ISS4” McComas | was elected over J. Fred Nelson of Wash- |ington county, In 1886 McComas beat Col. |L. Victor Baughman and in ISS8 Gen. H. | Kyd Douglas of Washington county. Mc- | Comas influence seemed to be supreme in the district, ard he was renominated in 18) for a fifth term, Wellington of Al- lezany county opposed his nomination, and his friends cut McComas that year, which caused his defeat. The republicans’ stayed |away from the polls, and Gen. McKaig | got about as many democratle votes as B: hman and Dovglas and carried the district by a plurality of 163 votes. In 3892 George L. Wellington was nominated jagainst McKaig and defeated by a plurality of cver 600 votes. McKalg was holding | the position of mayor cf Cumberland when he was elected to Congress. He had never | | been beaten in his life and had been in the | state serate and house of delegates. He | had been more of an active politician than a lawyer, end was very active at the pri maries. In 18% McKaig carried Washing- ton county by a plurality of 118, Frederick | by a plurality of 35 votes and Montgomery by 600. plurality, McComas’ majority was reduced from 80% to 310 in Allegany. Me- Comas had-a plurality in the district in 1888 of 1,634 votes, Allegany county was the battle ground of the district then, as it is today, anc no democrat outside of Al- llegany has been elected since 1870, when John Ritchie of Frederick defeated Judge {Smith of Carroll county by 1,800 majority in the district. In 1872 Lioyd Loundes beat | Ritchie by about 1,800 in the district, but | |was defeated by Walsh in 1874, who got | jless than 100 majority. Walsh beat Me- | Coma8 in 1878 by a very small majority, | ‘and might have been re-elected in 1878, but | declined the nomination. The political’ his- tory of the district 4s interesting. The democrats are intense in their convic- tions. It is the only part of the state where | Tere is really a fight for principle. | life of polities. | in the democratic | going on. | Washington, | inexplicable. Mr. Wise was considered to | succeeding as a democratic representative | Satisfectorily the office of commonwealth'’s | and has becn six times re-elected. When populists, who have appeared in Mont- gcemery and Washington counties as an organization, are giying the democratic pol- ticlans’s6me concern. Nearly ail of them | are from the democrasi¢ party, and at pres- | ent their strength is not formidable. If a tariff bill should. beenacted before the | election and democratic enthusiasm should take the place of discontent, the populists | might disappear. But if the discontent | should continue until election day they will | probably have a ticket in the field and get enough votes to greatly ‘increase the re-— publican plurality. All the dissatisfied democrats in the district, who have been holding meetings, indorsing Cleveland and condemaing Gorman, who have conscien- tious scruples about voting the republic: ticket, will take fefuge in the popull camp. McKaig" z ts" plurality in 18%) was only 165 votes and 607 in INv2 out of a total vote of nearly 40,000, The democrats, therefore, | cannet afford to lose any votes at best. If | | Gen. William MacMahon McKaig desires a | renomination it will doubtless be accorded to him with unanimity. .But he has assured many of his friends privately, and has writ- ten letters to others, declaring that nothing | Would Induce him to run again. He has | made no public declaration because, as he says, he does not wish to publicly decline a nomination before it ts tendered to him. He | bases his decision not on the feat of defeat, | but says he is tired of Congress and the | Mr. Ferdinand Williams was | in Baltimore this’ week, and says he re- ceived a letter a few days ago from Gen. | McKaig, in which the latter said that he | had finally decided that he would under no | circumstances be a candidate for or ac. cept a renomination. Mr. Williams thinks the democrats have a lighting chance of keeping the sixth district umn, particularly if | the republicans nominate a candidate who has been engaged in factional fights and | who cangot, threfore, unite all elements of | the party. AS to the probable outcome of the Well- ington-Pearre contest in Allegany, Mr. Will- | lems would not express an opinion, except | to Say that the contest was a warm one. The democratic congressional convention will be held in Hagerstown September 4, one day after the republican convention, which will be held at Frederick, It is un- derstood that Allegany county will present the name of Ferdinand Williems, who, as chairman of the democratic committee of Allegany county, managed two campaigns for Gen. McKaig in Allegany. If Mr. will jams will consent to take the nomination {t is likely he will receive it without a dis- senting vote, and he would make a strong candidate, as he is an ardent democrat and free from all factional embarrassments. He is the leader of the y county bar, and asststed ‘the late William Walsh in all his great railroad cases against the Bal- timore and -Ohio and Cumberland and Peansylvania railroad companies. There are many hopeful democri in ihe district who believe that Mr. Williams will be a stronger candidate than Gen. McKaig. If Williams and Pearre are nominated the fight will be an interesting one. Pearre, however, it is thought, would have no trou- ble in beating McKaig, as Judge McComas’ friends would ali support him in Washing- ton and Frederick counties. The republican politicians are convinced that the nomination by their convention will be equivalent to an election. Hence a determined struggle for the nomination is town, Frederick county will present John C. Motter, and Allegany either Wellington or Pearre. Garrett is believed to be favora- ble to Wellington, strong candidate in Tom Dawson of Rock- v ‘The convention of each party in the sixth district is composed of twenty-four votes, very awkwardly arranged for reaching re- sults where there are close contests. The vote is as follows: Garrett, 3; Allegany, 6; 5; Frederick, 6, and Mont- Allegany and Frederick have gomery, 4. lington Hard rt at an | half the convention, and the other three | counties combinsd cannot make a nomina- tien. If Washington and Prederick coun- ties go against Wellington he can be nomi- nated by Garrett, Allegany and Montgom- ery counties. _—— POLITICS IN VIRGINIA. | Spectal Correspondence of The Evening Star. RICHMOND, Va., Avgust 8, 1834. New that the contests in the ranks of the demecratie party for congressional nomina- tions have been nearly all settled, interest centers in the probable outcome of the battle between the different parties. ‘The result of the contest ir the third dis- trict afforded great astonishment, and has deeply affected the state at large. The de- feat of Representative George D. Wise by Col. Tazewell Eliett for the democratic nomination wes not only unexpected but be one of the strongest members of his party, and nearly all of his victories in the past have been won with comparative ease. He is a hard worker, a good organizer, and a shrewd and sagacious politician. Just what cause the democrats of Richmond had for this coup d'etat at Mr. Wise’s ex-| pense cannot be explained, not even by those who effected it. Mr. Wise has represented this district in Congress consecutively for twelve years, the late Gen. Joseph E. Johnston. Mr. Wise has been in political life for about twenty-five years, having filled ably and attorney of Richmond for a number of years. This is not Capt. Wise's first intro- duction to defeat, for in 1872 he was beaten by the late J. Ambler Smith for Congress; subsequently he was nominated and elected, he retires from Congress on the 4th of March rext he will undoubtedly resume the practice of law in Richmond. It is said by some that he will again become a candidate for commonwealth's attorney of Richmond, but his friends deny this, saying that Mr. Wise’s next political venture will be to seek a return to Congress. Those close to Mr. Wise, however, say that he will make his residence tn the future in Washington city, where he will retire altogether from business, and live there upon his income. He is well off. own- ing remunerative properties in California. His vehement oratory led him into many difficulties while at the bar here. This led Lim into a duel with the late United States Senator Riddleberger. After an exchange of shots Mr. Riddleberger expressed him- self satistied. Mr. Wise is a cousin of John S. Wise, formerly of this city, now of New York, ard is a bachelor. Col. Ellett, who will succeed him in Con- gress, is one of Richmond's most lar lawyers, being a great favorite with all classes of people. He has a striking per- sonality, ix a logical and forcible talker, and pleasing in personal address. He has never before held an elective office.

The Bill Sexy Peg? sis TH OBJECTIONS URGED - - = ‘The only financial legislation accomplished by this Congress, except the repeal of the purchasing clause of the Sherman act and passage of the stigniorage bill, which re- ceived the presidential veto, is the bill to subject to state taxation national bank notes and United States treasury notes, which passed the Hovse Tuesday with Senate amendments. Attempts have been made in nearly every Congress since the war to subject these forms of money to taxation. Senator Mc- Donald of Indiana introduced a bill in the Porty-sixth Congress for the purpose, and in 180, whea Senator Edmunds was chair- man of the Senate committee on the ju- diciary, a similar measure was reported by that committer and passed the Senate, but failed in the House. How the Bill Passed. Representative Cooper of Indiana, who introduced the bill which is now in the President's hands for approval, has made an vnesually active campaign for it. It was approved by the House committee om banking and currency by a majority of one, Mr. Welker of Massachusetts voting with the democrats for it, and Mr. Springer and Mr. Johnson of Ohio with the republicans against it, the latter because he believes in. the single tax upon land. Mr. Cooper made @ personal canvass of the House, and esti- mated that the bill would recetve two hun- dred votes. There was not « full House, and it passed by 175 to 41. It was referred to the judiciary committee of the Senate, because the Gnance committee was engaged with the tariff bill, and passed the Senate without division. The bill provides that circulating notes of national! banking associations and United States legal tender notes and other notes and certificates of the United States pay able on demand, and circulating or intended to circulate as currency, shall not be ex- empt from taxation under the laws of any state or territory, provided, that taxation is exercised at the same rate and in the same manner as upon other property or money. Acts of Exemption. ‘The three acts authorizing the issuance of | sreenbacks each put in circulation $150,000,- | 000, but the total amount was afterward re- | duced to $46,000,000, a figure that has re- rained permanent, althorgh much of the | rouey has been jost or destroyed. Each | issuing act declared the greenbacks exempt | from taxation by state or municipal author- j tty. as well as all cther obligations of the United States, and under this law are the Sherman notes for the purchase of bullion, $150,000,000 of which were issued under the act of 180. There are, In round numbers, $990,008,000 of United States notes exempt from taxation. Hfferts to tax money as other personal property is taxed are made by most of the ftates and territories. The average rate is | cstimated at $1.50 for state and county, and $1 for city taxes on $100, so that the tion on this money would average 2 1 cent. At is represented that most of the exempt- ed forms of currency have been withdrawn from circulation, and are being hoarded by lanks and individuals, they have an ad- ventage over gold and silver, which are sub- ject to taxation. Against the bill it was argued that it was an infringement of the general government to permit state and municipal authorities to tax its monetary issues, but, on the other hand, it was point. ed out that the states were not permitted to discriminate agains any forms of money, and that these greenbacks should be placed on the same basis as gold and silver. per Among the pensions granted yestetiay were the following: District of Columbia— Original, Edward L.
