THR TowsoN correspondent of the Baltimore
Americdn, in a recent issue of that paper, said +:
among the Baltimore county Democrats who
will vote for the reelection of President Roose-
Welt is Mr.. Lewis M. Bacon, of Philopolis, in
the 9Th district, who was formerly one of the
most ardent Democrats in the county, and
who has served a term as Clerk of the Circuit
Court. He is also one of the most prominent
Law members of the Methodist Episcopal
Church and is a conspicuous figure at the con-
ventions of that denomination. Mr.. Bacon
bases his admiration for President Roosevelt
on the ground that the President is morally
right in his attitude on the race question. He
saws that he believes that Mr.. Roosevelt is one
of the greatest of Americans, and publicly and
privately advocates his election"
THE INVENTOR of an electric campaign but
ton says it is great campaign barometer. He
reports that at the high price of S1.25 each
more than $1,000 of them have been sold
through the United States on orders, and at
the ratio of five Roosevelt buttons to one
Parker button. Chicago has purchased 5000
of Roosevelt and 900 of Parker, which is also
about the ratio in New York city. In Indiana
1000 Roosevelt buttons have been sold against
21O Parker. In the Southern States it is gen.
orally to on Parker, though in Louisville
these figures are reversed. West Virginia has
purchased 800 Davis buttons, 14S Parker and
$50 Roosevelt. There is some significance in
this. Popularity shows itself in various ways
sometimes by button and other times by
vote. The citizen who makes the most dem
onstration and parades his political beliefs the
most openly is apt to be the most enthusiastic
voter and will not be absent from the polls on
election day.

In THE death of Mr.. Frederick Douglas Nor
rison Baltimore city has lost one of her most
highly esteemed and useful citizens. He died
on Saturday last at st. Joseph's Hospital, from
the effects of an operation for appendicitis,
aged 81 years. He was native of Hartford
county and forty years of his life had been
spent in the education of the blind. For the
greater part of that time he had been superin-
dent of the Maryland School for the Blind.

by one son, Mr.. George G. Morrison, who is q
member of the bar.
The DEMOCRATS of the Fifth Congressional
district are leaving no stone unturned this
year to down" Hon. Sydney E. Mudd, the
Republican nominee for Congress. The first
serious" move in this direction was to place
DR.. Samuel A. Mudd, of Charles county, on
their ticket for Presidential elector. Now they
have gone still further by inducing John E..
Mudd, also of Charles county, to run as an
independent Republican" for Congress and
he filed the necessary papers, with over 300
signatures, in the Office of the Secretary of
State on Wednesday. With three Mudds on
the ticket the Democrats hope to confuse the
voters and thus accomplish the defeat of the
Hon. Sydney. For low down trickery this
rather takes the cake"

BOB OWENS
BOOMER ANG
Noted Cherokee Politician En-
gagged in Launching Double
State Campaign.

The Muskogee correspondent Of the
Kansas City star has been lnstru-
mental In launching Col. Owens two
state scheme Following is the story;
Beginning August l, there will be
systematic campaign started in In.
dian Territory TO crystalize and organ
lie separate state sentiment and to
have the advocates work on a definite
outline to accomplish separate state
hood.
This movement will be headed by
r. L. Owen, Of Muskogee, one Of the
original separate state men OF the ter
ritory. Even this far In advance of
the time when the work is 10 begin
there have tlocked around Col. owen
several brainy young men who want
two states, and they are now collect
ing and preparing material for the
campaign this fall, when il is proposed
T. organize separate statehood clubs
al over the territory.
Already there has been one club of
this kind organized The first IS In
Ardmore, in the heart Of the single
state sentiment in the Chickasaw ma
tion. These organizations will be
non-parti2an, and both Democrats and
Republicans who are In favor Of two
states instead Of one will be asked for
their sympathy and support.
The action OF Oklahoma In refusing
to concur ia an agreement with the
other territories to permit a plank in
the national platform declaring for
immediate statehood, the people to
decide the method OF admittance by
vote, was, in measure, responsible
for this movement.
Colonel Owen, with several other
active separate statehood men, was
busy at the Democratic national con-
vention spreading two.states doctrine,
not only among the territory delega-
tions, but also among delegations from
the states where support will be needed
sooner or later.
When the statehood plank was first
Inserted II was construed to read for
single statahood for Oklahoma and
Indian territories. Immediately there
was issued bulletin signed by every
member Of the Cherokee Nation dele
cation protesting against II. A copy
Of this was hung In all state head
quarters. 4 feature Of this two-state
movement IS that Il comes a a time
when the single state men had de-
elared the two.state idea dead issue.
