MARYLAND AT THE
EXPOSITION

That an effort will be made to increase
TO So, 900 the fund for Maryland's repre-
sentation was decided at the meeting of
the joint commission last Saturday at the
rooms of the Merchants and Manuf"c-
turers' Association. With the States
appropriation of $4,000 the fund now
amounts to about 22,5OO. Private sub
scriptions will he solicited to make up
the difference and all subscribers will be
called on to pay the amounts subscribed
at once.
Four fifths of the money is to be spent
at Charleston and one fifth at Buffalo.
The principal reason for this division of
the fund is that Maryland's ties are closer
in the South, but the near approach of the
opening date for the Buffalo Exposition
also makes it impossible to provide a
building of any great size there. The
Maryland pavilion at Buffalo will cost
perhaps $4,000 or $4,000. The special
committee was authorized to proceed with
its construction. Mr.. Douglas H. Thomas
Jr., has been asked to prepare the plans.
Reception and reading rooms will be pro-
vided and there will also be cafe. but
the latter is to be subordinate rather
than prominent feature, it having been
decided that the ''Maryland kitchen" idea
would not be quite appropriate for an
official State building. Director G eneral
Buchanan has set apart for Maryland a
lot of ground 40 by 50 feet.
In addition to the pavilion at Buffalo
there will be liberal representation from
Maryland in the Mines and Mining Build
ing, where some of the best locations
have been obtained The Geoio ,ica
Survey has secured the wall space ovel
the main entrance end also Il number OF
the large windows, where transparencies
will be placed.

rings have less chance to succeed where
the franchise rests with the intelligent
vote Of the State. The Democratic party
recognizes the fact that when a party is
compelled to go before an intelligent con
stituency to give an account of their stew
ardship they must show themselves worthy
of trust or they will appeal to them in
vain. They have no unbroken column
