strong to carry the heavily laden car fur

began to descend at a rapid rate. A panic
seized the passengers, but before any

cordlng to army regulations we are entitled
to subsistence at the rate OF 80 cents for every
twenty miles OF travel. Four hundred and two

for that stuff we have been getting on board
the Sherman. so we ought to be entitled 10

way the Government can right our wrong Is
by restoring and paying US our travel pay,
which is ours by right and is due US for hon

They have caught the spirit and the fire Of
that grand old Democratic knighthood Qheir
fathers whose purity Of lives, devotion TO
principle, and fealty to party made them
not only the guides and teachers of the age
In which they lived, but the exemplars for
ages to come.
A distinguished writer has said with
marked emphasis, and with more of truth,
that Government should never be under
the control of ignorance, much less should
1t be in the hands of the reckless and the
depraved." Government is the highest and
most important political function and duty,
and 1t should be directed by wisdom and
intelligence. The constant influx into the
party organizations of young men, educated
In political ideas, will raise the standard of
political morality, as well as of intelligence
We have that education in political ideas
embodied in our Democratic young men,
who have gathered around our State and
county standards and swore that Maryland
must and shall be Democratic once again
They are To be our advance guard in the

We are gratihed to observe the rapidly
growing trend of Democrats of all shades of
opinion to get together again upon one
common platform for the overthrow of the
Republican party. The most dangerous
foes of the people now are the tariff, trusts
and imperialism, and these a united De.
mocracy will confront and annihilate.
