Tilson, the Republican field marshal, predicted the Democrats, at a loss for an issué in the coming presidential campaign, would revive the tariff ques- tion, and, Champion of Civil Marriages to Take } Washington Bride Maryland’s champlon of civil mar- riages, whose bill failed to pass at the last Legislature, will wed Miss Florence Askin, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Morris Askin, 1749 Columbia road, on St. Patrick’s day, March 17, at a civil cere- mony, probably in Washington. 'The prospective groom, Seymour Phillips, Baltimore attorney and a member of the House of Delegates from the fourth district, has arranged for a religious test of party loyalty, or that either party will disregard other issues.” Then Tilson turned to.the religlous question, with this observation: “It is contended by many that if Gov.
