A man without a currency scheme
is no man for Congress.
Chicago issued 15,000 marriage li
censes last year. This was done that
the divorce courts could be kept in mo
tion.
We have troubles enough of our own,
and it’s a pretty good tiling that there
is no cable connection between this
country and Hawaii.
Franck lias been badly torn up by
the resignation of cabinet and presi
dent, but France seems to have away
of coming down on her feet.
Senator Gorman lias secured the
passage of a bill intended to promote
the success of the Baltimore Exposi
tion, in that it enables foreign exhibi
tors to send their articles to tins coun
try for the above purpose free.
It takes a gr<a‘ deal to satisfy a Re
publican. Now they are blaming Pres
ident Cleveland for the two-by-four
revolution that has occurred in Haw
aii. Can’t there he some excuse found
to blame him for the China-Japanese
war also?
.John James Ixuams wasn’t saving
much, but lie thought he was sawing a
n great deal of Senatorial wood, hut in
asmuch as the Kansas Republicans
have turned him down, it is apparent
that some other man was in the wood
business also. <
Quite a fad among the great daily
papers of the country is to run a series
of completed short stories, one, or a
continuation thereof, each day. They
are widely advertising this feature and
expect it to lie duly appreciated by
their readers The Citizen for a num
ber of months lias made a prior move
among county weeklies by printing
eacli week a completed story, carefully
selected and just long enough not to
become tiresome. We will continue
this during 1895, and feel sure our read
ers appreciate it.
Rkpuheicans are making vigorous
assaults upon President Cleveland’s
foreign policy, especially as relating to
Hawaii. This thing lias kept up with
never ending regularity since the Dem
ocratic party assumed governmental
control. The action o£ the President
in sending a ship of war to the .Sand
wich Islands, as soon as news of the
revolution was received, to protect and
watch over American interests, has
been condemned by the partizan ad
herents of Reed & McKinley, for no
other purpose than to keep up their
reputation as “chronic grumblers.’,
Several resolutions commending the
President’s course were introduced in
Congress, only to be laid on the table
with .unfinished business. It is the du
ty of any government to carefully look
after the property and lives of tier citi
zens, especially when such is-upon for
eign soil, and under its present head,
the United States can be depended
upon to do everything consistent with
correct diplomatic courtesy, tempered
with firmness and determination. The
annexation of the Hawaiian Islands to
the United States, is being agitated in ■
both House and Senate.
It is a very easy matter to criticise!
and condemn, but it conics decidedly
harder to do a tiling. The Republi- I
cans who are now denouncing the '
Democratic party with every breath
for their failure to follow out to the !
very letter the platform on the tariff
question, and also to get together on
the proposed financial change, have I
had similar experiences many a time,
and one such experience was in con
nection with a tariff bill, if Czar Reed’s
word is to lie taken with any degree of
certainty. The McKinley bill was a
measure that was unsatisfactory to the !
majority of the Republican members of
Congress, to say nothing of the way
the people looked at it, hut as it seemed
to pat the trusts on the back in a very
acceptable manner, the Republicans |
swallowed it without a murmur, and
sticking their thumbs in the armholes !
of their vests, strutted before the people !
as great benefactors. The people knew
their business and sent the trust pro-'
tectors to their homes, and, while the
bill passed by the Democratic Congress
may not lie just what was promised
and just what the people want, they
will make this country very wurmfori
the Republicans if they dare to raise
the rates again.

Another strike and more rioting.
This time it is in Brooklyn. Because
the street car companies will not accede
to the demands of employ os that they
lie allowed to dictate how the road
shall be run, the men have gone on a
strike and absolutely refuse to abide by
the decision of an arbitration board. If
the matter had stopped there it would
not be so bad, but it did not. The com-
I pany insisted that it had the right to
run the road as it deemed tit, and to do
so put men up m the cars who would
carry out the orders given them, and j
who would work for the wages that
the company offered, with which they
were satisfied. Then there was rioting
and it was found necessary to call out
tlie troops to protect the company’s
property and the lives of the men who
were anxious to work. It seems t<> !
have reached a point where strike and
riot are synonymous, and it is about
1 ! time that these men were taught a les
i son that they will not soon forget.
| Every time there is a difference In'-
! tween an employer and his men, if
there is any number of them, there are |
; scenes of riot and bloodshed, and the |
inexcusable destruction of property. If
the working men cannot be made to
realize, by peaceable methods that
there are others in this land who have
rights that must be respected, then it is
time that steps be taken to impress the
fact upm them, and it should lie made
• so forcible that there can be no misun
derstanding of the point that it is de
■ sired to make. The necessity for de
termined action is shown in the das
tardly attempt that was made in Chic
ago to plunge the country into a rebel
lion, by several murderous hotheads, at
the time of the Chicago outrage.
“Out of the frying pan, into the
fire,” is an apt phrase to describe
the result of the recent change from
tiie deadly coal stoves to steam pipes a s
a means of supplying heat in passenger
coaches by nearly all the railroads. For
. a number of years past an effort has
. been made to have the legislatures in
. j the different .States pass a law compell
. ing the railroad companies to provide
. | other heating apparatus than that then
used. Lately, nearly all the coaches
(at least those of the 1. & O.) have -=u j>-
planted the old stove with a patent
steam heating system, which under fa
, vorable circumstances would transform
the icy waste of the north pile into a
green and verdant expanse and temper
, the chilling blasts which come
careening down through Canada and
our upper States laden with icy deso
, lation and zeros by the wholesale with
a Florida mildness which would soon
break up foolhardy expeditions in
search of tlie imaginary end of the
earth’s extreme axis. It is a question
now, whether it would not have been
j better to lieve suffered the ills we for
merly had, rather than have flown to
others, the nature and danger of which
we knew lot —with apologies to Shakes
-1 peatv. Tii • plain truth is that the pres-
I unit plan is defective, in that it provides
’ no method of maintaining an equitable
temperature. On a very chilly day, the
, I foremost coach may be hot to an ex
-1 treme degree whilst persons in the last
| car may be freezing. There is no deny
ing the fact that what might be a pleas
ant temperature to one person, tg an
other would prove totally inadequate
to their normal condition. This ques-
I tion of heating ears properly is in every
| sense an important consideration, es- J
i pecially in regard to tlie public health, !
which is subject to great disadvantage j
I and constantly placed in jeopardy. !
We know of several eases, where severe ■
colds have been contracted by persons
leaving the overheated coaches and go-'
ing out into the open air. Sometimes |
windows are hoisted from sheer desjKT- ■
, ation, with great risk to those in the ■
vicinity. Pneumonia comes readily *
from such causes and there can be only
| wonder expressed that recently, more !
eases have not been traced directly to
< tlie main seat of contraction—the over
heated railroad ear. It is tlie duty of all
railroad companies to look as well after
the health (and shield the same from
any negligence or defect in their sys
tem), as the life of the travelling pub
lic, and, unless some prompt action is
taken in regard to the above danger, an
indignant people will demand relief
and take measures to secure their own
immunity.
President Ci.eveeanii recently
gave an interview to an Associated
Press representative, who called, to get
tlie true facts in the case regarding the
| sending of a ship-of-war to the Hawaii
lan Islands. In part the President said:
“No information lias been received
which indicates tHat anything will I
happen in Hawaii making the pres- j
I ence of one of our naval vessels neces
j sary. * * * *
All who take au interest in the ques- j
tion should keep in view the fact that
Hawaii is entirely independent of us,
and that in its relations to us it is a for
j eign country. A ship has been sent to
! Honolulu, not because there has been
any change in the policy of the admin
istration, and not because there seems
to be any imminent necessity for its |
I presence there, hut in accordance with !
I the policy of the administration in eve- j
ry case of the kind, and from motives!
| of extreme caution, and because there j
I isa possibility that disturbances may be j
renewed which might result in danger
to the persons or property of American 1
citizens entitled to the protection of the
{ United States. This course was at once j
j determined upon as soon as infonna
; tion reached the government of the re
! cent revolt.”

FREDERICK CITIZEN, FRIDAY MORNING JANUARY 25.1595.
Thkhi was a bill before the H mse recently,
known as the Strauss railway lull, that is of
about as much importance as any of thr fl- :
nan.-e hills that have so far been proposed.
1 1 has been an aekn .wledge.l fact th it the
corpiraiious of this country have been doing
ousiness for a long time on borrowed capital.
Of the capital otthe railrosd companies much
has come from English investors. The pur
pose of .Strauss' bill u to sunjvt the mini/e
--meiil of the railroads to gre rer surveillance
and control and reduce to the minimum th*
otlicial p undering. According to Henry
j dews the amount of Amerimn saurilies
which must h tve been sold by uropean in
vestors iu the j.ast three years is in the neigh
borhood ot 3iK),i U, this conclusion being ar
livedal bv a comparison of the statistics o 1
foreign commerce wall the net gold exports.
Henry Clews is inclined to lay a certain
amount of the blame upon the fear of uro
! pan investors, that this cojntry has been
drilling towards a silver standard. There is
another j.liiis • of the matter that seems to have
escaped the eye* ot the general reiders, and
that is the unreliability of Amt-rican railway
I investments. Foreigners have sold Aiueri-
I can railway stocks tor the same reason that
' holders ot tlnm iu th s country have sold
them—because there is little mouey in them
and because the investment is untrustworthy.
The average profits from American railway
investments in the past two years have proba
bly not been above 2 per cent while in Great
Britain railroad stocks pay as high as 4 and
6 per cent, and in some Kuropeuu countries
even greater. With the sale of these Ameri
can railway slocks tlie gold h..s of course
gone to Europe, hence the Quaucial strin
gency.
THE VACANCY FILLED.
I
James B Henderson, of Rockville,
a Democrat, to Fill tiie Uaox
pired Term of Associate
Judge.
Governor Brown has at length made
til) Ills tiniui ns to who would succeed
tlie recently retired Judge John T. Vin
son, of it ic'kvdle, and issued the com
mission in Hie name of .dr. James H.
Henderson, of tiie same place. There
lias lieeu an unusually large amount of
interest shown iu tins matter; the chief
point being whether or not tlie Gover
nor would decide iu favor of a Demo
crat for the place. Tlie agony is "aii
ovei now,” and the devotees of our op
posite political faith will have to wa t
until next November to secure tbe
holding of this honorable position by
one of their own patty— that is, if
Democrats don’t vot . Judge Vinson’s
successor will quality at once amt make
bis tirst appearance iu the capacity of
Assoc.ate Judge of tlie Sixth Judicial
Circuit, iu this city, at tire February
t rm of Couit, winch commences ou
the first Monday in that mouth. Ibis
appointment, it is understood, gives
entire satisfaction, even amongKepub
-1 tea us, and there is no question but
that be will be Humiliated upon tiie
party ticket this fall, and receive Ihe
unbias d support of the people.
James B. Henderson, the new ap
point -e, was born on March 23rd, 1845,
in Montgomery County. The lirst six
or seven years of his life were spent in
Kentucky. Later the family moved
to New vide, Cumberland County, Fa.,
and in LSti.'i he moved to liockvdle, in
w liich place lie has resided since. He
studied law iu tae otlice of Messrs.
Brewster and Ft t r, amt iu February,
1569, was admitted totliebrr. 11 • be
gan to practice law with Mr. George
Peter, and has continued active iu tlie
practice ot his profession. When Spen
cer C Jones resigned as Slate’s attor
j ney to occupy the otlice of Cleik of rite
Gouit f Appeals, Mr. Hemteism was
appointed to iid the vacancy; and iu
November, 1879, lie was elected to that
oilioe on tlie Democratic ticket, and
re-elected in 1883. He is a director iu
Ilia Montgomery National Bank.
i Import and Export Statistics for
December, and the Year 1894.
The monthly statement of the im
port*, exports, immigration and gold
I and silver movement for December
and the year 1894, is given h low in
j comparison with 1893. It will be ot
j served that owing to tlie financial and
i business depression in 1894, Hie total is
i below that of the year previous, but
the difference between tlie impnr s and
j exports of merchandise is quite uotice
| able. It is only a matter of a little
while when tlie comparison of similar
statements later in tlie present year
will show the advantageous workings
of the new tariff bill:
Export* of merchandise for the
month of Decentb-r were $84,870,706;
same month in 1893, $93,589,339. The
tX|iorts of merchandise for the year.
amounted to $824,967,364, as against
$875,831 848 for the year 1893. The im
ports of merchandise during the lust
month aggregated $62,060 580, as
again-t $49,119,368 for December, 1893.
For the year tlie imports amounted to
$672,672,540, as against $766,239,846 for
the year 1893. Ol tbe total imports of
merchandise during t ie year $292,917,-
629 were dutiable, and $379,774,911 free
of duty.
The movement of gold and silver are
given as follows:
Gold exports for tlie year 1894, slOl,-
821.375: impoit', S2O 621.024.
Sliver expoits 1.,r the year 1894, $17,-
035 25; imp .its, $10,494,631. Tlie whole
; numb-rot einmigr.inis which arrived
j in tins country during 1894 was 248,988,
as against 498 776 during toe year i 893.
Resolutions on the Retirement of
Judge Vinson, by the Mont
gomery County Bar.
Tlie members of th Montgomery
County Bar recently drafted resolu
i Hons, testamentary of their regret at
j the retirement of kludge John T. Viu
i sou from the b*uch and his intrinsic
j worth iu (lie capacity which lie lias so
long occupied. Messrs. Thomas An
j deison, James B. Henderson, the ttew
! ly appointed Judge, Guioti Miller and
I other distinguished lawyers, m delin
quent remarks upon tlie occasion. Fol
lowing is the resolution:
‘‘lu far-reaching and enduring influ
ence, tlie otlice of Judge is second to
none in tlie land, and it lias suffered .
no detriment by Judge Vinson’s in- !
cumbency. Elected by tlie people in
the autumn ot 1882, lie lias presided iu
tlie courts of Frederick and Montgom
eiy Counties for twelve years with dig
nity, courtesy, ability, impartiality in d !
unswerving hit grity, and therein lus
shown a true estimate of the high of-
I lice be so worthily filled, and establish
ed a just claim to tlie thanks and good
will of i lie law ver and tlie citizen. We
regret tlie severance of tlie pleasant of
ficial relations which existed for so
many years. In Ins retirement we
wish forjudge Vinson long years and
prosperity and the resja-ct and vener
ation which are tlie highest reward—
the crowning achievement—of a well
spent life. 1

Discourses of Epictetus, With
Notes.
Little of the personal history of this
great philosopher has come down to iis.
We owe, even what we know of his
teachings, not to himself, but to a dis
j ciple, who treasured his wise maxims
! and collected the material compiled iu
the manual known as the “Enchiri
-Idi m.” Epictetus seems to have been
• a hoi id man in the service of Epiphro
! ditus, favorite of the Emperor Nero,
! and lived at Rome ill the middle of the
first century. He was a man of excel
; lent ninrol character—a seeker after
God”—in whose existence and admin
islration be believed. His moral teach
ings represent the stoic school, whose
philosophy he exp unded. Generally
speaking, the view which Epictetus
tool; of life, is always simple anil al
ways consistent. It is a view whieh j
gave him consolation among life’s j
troubles and strength to di-play some j
of its noblest virtues. His “Discourses," j
have bet n valued by the devout of
ages as a’Kempis’s “Imitation of
Christ” has been valued.
These “Discourses,” as well as any
other book iu the 1 is*, now embracing
I ovet half a hundred selections, can he |
secured by sending to this office one ]
coupon cut from tiie Citizkn and ten

To Protect and Harbor Game of |
all Kind.
W i are glad to know that some inter- ;
est is being manifested by the sports-!
men of Maryland toward the protec- !
ti nt of game iu all parts ot Hie State.
The (irst tiling necessary to accomplish !
thi* imp utaut mutter is to have uni-!
form laws for every county in the 1
St ae. The great misfortune is and
has been that the laws we have are
noi siillicleiitl.v well carried out. When
pot hunters are allowed to shoot birds
out of season and destroy whole cov
eys atone shot, the wealth of a Van
derhi t would have t > he made greater
t > k-.ep the State supplied with game,
j Mr. Charles W. Boss, Jr., istaking up a
I .subscription for the purpose of stock
ing this county with partridges. The
| first s'ep to he taken after the birds
are secured is to see that we have laws !
I passed at the next legislature to sulli- j
eiently protect them.

Mr. Lee Chiswell, of Lamar, Mo., !
