FAIRBANKS WILL ING
May Be Vice Presidential
Nominee After All.
FOR GOOD. OF PARTY
SACRIFICES HIS OWN POLITICAL
INTERESTS.
Against the Advice Of His RepubN-
can Friends in In
diana.
FOR GOOD OF PARTY

Senator Fairbanks will not resist move
nent to make him the vice presidential
nominee of the republican party. If the
convention dominates him he will accept.
More than that. he will not attempt to dis
courage efforts looking to his nomination.
1t is only fair to say that no explicit dec
laration by Senator Fairbanks to that effect
has been made. The Indiana delegation in
Congress was convinced today that Sem
ator Fairbanks had yielded to the soiicita-
ton of men high in the councils outside of
Indiana to take second place on the ma
tional ticket
Almost without exception his closest
political friends in Indiana have advised
him, in his own interest, against accepting
the vice presidency. influential republi-
cans in the Senate, such r.en as Spooner,
Allison and Platt, have urged him to take
it, on the ground that he would strengthen
the republican ticket, especially in finan-
cial circles. and that his first duty Is to his
party rather than to his own political
future.
Hemenway After Seat.
From today the campaign in Indiana for
the selection of his successor in the Senate
is on. 1t will be lovely fight. Thus far
there is no indication of bitterness being
engendered in the contest, but 1t will be
the sweetest fight that Indiana politics has
witnessed for many day, SO the Indiana
men say.
The prospective candidates for the SEN
atorship are Representative Hemenway,
Gov. Durbin, Representative C. B. Lands
and Representative Crumpacker. At his
time Representative Hemenway is said to
be decidedly in the lead.
The campaign will warm up Immediately,
as the legislature which is to be elected
this fall will fill the vacancy in the Senate
occasioned by Senator Fairbanks prospec-
tive retirement from that office.
Senator Fairbanks would not have to re-
sign his seat until after the election, but
the candidates for his shoes would have to
line up their friends in advance.

AN OPEN LETTER
To The County Commissioners
of Anne Arundel
County.

Gentlemen You see that our Gov.
Warfield is inclined 10 help the State
Board of Education TO get a compul-
sorry school law for Maryland. You
see, they claim such a law will make
better citizens. You see they point 70
such states as Massachusetts,, New
York and Illinois as samples.
Now, if You read the big papers of
these three states, You will see just
how crime grows in them-e especially
juvenile crime. Why, the illiterate
mountaineers of the South are a safer
people TO live among. Then you see
what compulsory education has done
for our lovely Baltimore. You see
negro crime increasing there, and You
see the fashionable northwestern sec
tion positively unsafe for ladies on
the streets by day as we'll as by night.
Even Mr.. Gary had the public school
vandals destroy his property about the
very day he handed in the compulsory
report. This was, indeed, a mockery
of his efforts. But what will he
learn? He will sit unmoved until the
Socialistic crash sweeps every dollar
of his pocket from him.
You see how farmers are selling out
because of lack of farm help. You
saw how New England's abandoned
farms became proYerbial from the edu-
cation of the hoys away from them.
You see the same thing now going on
here. What county of our state has
not witnessed farmers selling out be.
cause of lack of help? And what has
become of the servant girls? And
what has become of good housewives,
nurses of the sick. etc? Why, they
have all been educated away TO shops,
offices and streets. You see the wisest
men asking what is becoming of the
race? Where are we drifting! Well,
We are drifting into Socialistie and
negro revolution. That's the whole of
il. Our public schools have made
both the whites and blacks, who
should be industrious workers, dis
contents, inCapables and idlers.
As practical and influential men in
your respective counties, l suggest
that you give moments thought to
the situation and. if you do, you will
assuredly see that we do not want our
state further imbeciled by compulsory
education, and you will influence our
Legislators and popular opinion &C
cordingly. Read column long letter
of mine in the Baltimore News OF
November 30 on 1.-The Growing In
tiuence of Socialism In fact, could
call your attention to thousands of
letters and articles l have had in the
papers of the country on this line the
past year. No Southern state has
compulsory education in fact. Ken
tueky and West Virginia passed a bill
on that line, but it was dead letter.
Tie SOuth is eXDecfad 10 stand nv the
liberty of the citizens, but this inva-
sion of the home. this taking of babes
from cribs by the state is a tyranny
that brings its reward TO the state that
practices it in all the horrible prob
lens OF the day. Let Maryland pre-
serve herself.

Maryland Students al Penn

The registration at the University
of Pennsylvania shows a considerable
increase IN the number Of students
coming from the State of Maryland,
more than 40 having registered from
this state in the various departments
of Old Penn. The men from Mary
land form the most enthusiastic group
of college men at the University.
Last year they organized the Mary
land Club of the University of Penn
sylvania, which is one of the most
successful state clubs in West Pennsyl-
yania. At a recent smoker, Dean
Pennimann of the college and DR..
Young, the director of the Wharton
School, and all the new Maryland men
who registered this year were enter
tanned. The dean gave the boys a
talk which will long be remembered
by them. Mr.. G. B. Gill, Mr.. b. +.
and Mr. G. NJ. Emmery were elected
to membership. The organization
now represents almost every county
in Maryland During the fall the
club sent handsomely framed views of
the university campus, showing stu
dent life at Old Penn, to fifteen of
the most prominent preparatory schools
in Maryland.

Banished BY The King.

The chief characteristic of Thomas
f. Shea as an actor is his tremendous
power of study aud his unhagging
zeal in taking pains. Beginning with
success in melodramatic roles he has
built himself up TO an actor of CLASH
cal parts, fearless in challenging COM
parison to some of the greatest men
who have gone before him. This city
will have an opportunity TO see him
in roles which Edwin Booth, Henry
irving and Richard Mansfield have
made famous, and if report, collected
from all parts of the great critical
centers, speaks truth. Mr.. Shea is not
impaired by the comparison. He is
student and while accepting the ira
ditions of famous characters like
"Richelieu, Z" Matthias. ETC., he is
not a slave to them. Much of his new
reading of the Cardinal" and tire
Polish Jew tormented by con-
science, is admirable, and no one
hereafter will be able TO say these
parts without having acquainted him
self with Mr.. Shea's interpretations.
The reason for this is that the new
readings and new business have been
found by this actor after diligent
study. At the Colonial Theatre Satur-
day matinee and night.

RUSSIA WILL FIGHT TO

pursue the war in the far east to the
bitter end, that is until Russia has
conquered"
These are the opening words of an
emphatic statement made yesterday by
Russian Ambassador Cassini. Con
tinuing his statement he said:
Russia can no more admit of inter
ference than Great Britain could in the
transvaal or than could the United
States in her war with Spain. Where
the prestige of a country is at stake,
all other considerations are and must
be put aside"
He scouts the notion that Russian
finances are such as to influence her
to end hostilities. He insists that Rus
STA has plenty of money to continue the

SEARCH DEBRIS FOR CLUE.
Ruins Passed Through Miners SIuice
Box in Murder Case.

Auburn, Cal, Nov. 15.-The Weber
murder case is progressing slowly, as
nothing can be done until the entire
ruins have been run through the
miners sluice box The weapons used
to commit the murder have not been
found.
The debris will all have been worked
over by today and If the 32-calibre re-
volver is not found there will be proof
that julius Weber, the father did not
commit the crime. Officers are in
possession of evidence that points
strongly toward Adolph Weber as the
man who robbed the Placer county
bank last May. The feeling against
young Weber is running high, but as
he is in the county Jail there is no
fear of any unlawful act on the part OF
the citizens. Only relatives and law
yers are allowed to see him.
