Warfield's Big Lead.

The name of Hon. Edwin Warfeld, ii now
seems likely, will be the only one presented for
Governor to the Democratic State Convention
next year. His splendid showing in the last
campaign for the nomination for Governor,
and his magnanimous conduct in going into
the convention and placing in nomination
Hon. John Walter Smith, his successful rival,
has endeared him to the Democracy of the
State. He has further strengthened himself
by stating that he does not intend to buy the
nomination with cash and promises of Office.
He desires to be Governor for the honor of
the Office, to round out an active political and
business life, and not to use il as a stepping
stone to the United States Senate. Not only
does he desire the Office because of the honor
of being Chief Executive of one of the thir-
teen original States, and one of the proudest
of the Commonwealth. but he believes he can
administer the Office with benefit to the whole
people.
IF there be any power in the press that pow
err will certainly be welded in his behalf
Three-fourths, at least, of the Democratic
papers ofthe State will be behind him in his
canvas for the nomination, and already they
are setting forth his merits for Governor and
proclaiming his fitness Mr.. Warfeld will
certainly open his campaign next year with a
big lead with the Democratic press and voters,
and it now looks like his nomination will be
made by reclamation.

prosperity-But who is Prospecting ?


While the Republicans are flooding the
country with figures on prosperity it might be
well to see who the prosperous are. The
Steel Trust is making money at the rate OF
$140 900, 600 year. No one will deny that
that is prosperity. The Beef Trust is selling
beef at figures that puts about 10 cents in their
Golfers on every pound of beef the American
people have to buy Certainly that is pros
perty. The Coal Trust is charging two dollars
for one dollars worth of coal. No one will
deny that they ought to be making few
dollars as they go along, and that they are
feeling slight evidences of prosperity in their
pockets, too. The typewriter manufacturer
is selling typewriters to American buyers for
500 each which he can afford to sell in En-
gland at sos each. He is undoubtedly pros
porous at that rate. The sewing machine
manufacturers are selling the housewives SIT
sewing machines at $40 each, and that is pros
perity.
But what about the other fellow? When the
public spirited men of town want to build
street railway they must pay the Steel Trust
1928 for the same kind of steel that that organ
izatiou ships to England and sells there for
1923 per ton. Does that make the buyer pros
porous? Last May and at the present time, the
laboring man had to pay rs cents for pound
of the same kind of beef that the Beef Trust
ships to London and sells there for Is cents
per pound. Is he prosperous? The Coal
Trust makes the consumer pay $40 for SIS
worth of coal. Perhaps the consumer feels
that all is prosperity while he is doing so.
Wien the American business man wants to
buy typewriter he is charged just 500 for a
machine that is shipped from here to England
and sold there for $50. When the busy house
wife, who has to do her own sewing in order
to help her husband to make buckle and
tongue meet, wants sewing machine she has
to pay $50 for machine that her English
sister can buy for ST.. In the face of these
facts who will have the hardihood to deny
that ours is a blessed prosperity with the tariff
fostered trust manufacturers growing richer
every day at the expense of the people? The
prosperity of the trusts is not the prosperity
of the people.

Hartford Has Spoken.

The Hartford county Democratic convention
on Tuesday elected double delegation of ten
to the Second Congressional district conven-
ton, each delegate to have half a vote. Six
of the delegates are for Fink and four are for
Talbot, but the delegates are instructed to
vote as a unit the majority of the delegation
to determine the action Of the delegates, just
as the delegates from Carroll and Baltimore
counties are instructed. As the situation is
today, Mr.. Fink has ten votes, five each from
Carroll and Hartford, and Mr.. Talbot has the
seven votes of Baltimore county. The prima-
ries in the fifteenth and sixteenth wards of
Baltimore city are yet to be held, aud upon
the result there largely depends the nominee
for Congress. The sentiment in the wards is
Just the same as in Carroll and Hartford, and
even in Baltimore county-Mr. Talbot should
not be nominated. A new man is demanded.
If the Raisin organization should espouse the
cause of Mr.. Talbot, the contestin the wards
will be close. If it keeps hands off, Mr. Fink
will carry both wards easily. Mr.. Raisin' $
interference in the wards will not add any
strength to Mr.. Talbot in November, should
he perchance secure the nomination. The
Second Congressional district lies almost
wholly without the city of Baltimore, and the
Raisin organization has no right to undertake
to dictate the congressional nominee. Mr..
Talbot is already weak enough before the
people, and should the nomination go to him
through Raisin's efforts extra efforts will have
to be put forward to carry the district.

Election Expenses.

The Sentinez last week had long article
making comparison of election expenses OF
1898 with 1901. 1t does not charge that any
costs were not in strict conformity with the
law, but it might have added that the ticket
in 1898 contained only Congressional nomi-
nees. whereas that of 1901 included State and
local candidates, making expense Of printing
and publishing of ballots nearly double. In
fairness the Sentinel might have stated, too,
that new voting precincts became necessary,
and the advertising of the precinct lines was
an extra cost in 1901 that will not have to be
incurred again.
The Sentinel concludes its article as follows:
The purpose and effect of the law Of 1896. amend
ed in 1895 were to guarantee honest and fair cleo
tons The purpose and effect Of the law OF lsUi
was to deprive voters of the due and proper erect
Of their ballots and to defraud candidates for ONCE
by the rejection of defective tickets.
That statement is simply in line with the
Sentiners general opinion, that all Republic
cans are saints and all Democrats are sinners.
The Republicans wanted honest elections, and
the Democrats wanted dishonest and fraudu-
lent elections Was ever any statement more
unwarranted? The charge will have no lodge
ment in the minds Of people of judgment and
discretion, and is 100 far from fact to need
discussion.
There have never been any dishonest cleo
tions in Carroll No fraudulent votes have
ever been cast and ballots have been counted
as voted. And there is no more fairness aud
honesty now than twenty years ago. All the
improvements(? p in election machinery and
ballots, made to conform TO the ideas of set
of theorists in Baltimore city, have simply
added to the cost without adding to the hon
esty and fairness of elections. Both parties
have listened to these political dreamers OF
ballot purity, and both are responsible for
the laws as they stand. The ADVOCATE has
steadily opposed the gradual changes from
the simple ballot prior to 1880, as unnecessary
and expensive, but we do not recollect word
of protest from the Sentinel. On the contrary
it favored the Australian ballot system.
The Australian ballot has come TO stay. No
party would undertake its repeal or moditica-
ton, so election expenses in Carroll will re-
main somewhere in the neighborhood of 81
900. . The only change that is now desirable,
since there can be no repeal, is to require
voters to write their names on the coupon.
