POOLING THE VOTERS.

The trusts and tariff. protected corpora
tons are in high glee at the turn political
events have taken by the concentration Of
public opinion upon railroad rate legisla.
ton. Mr.. Payne, the Republican leader in
Congress and chairman of the committee
on Ways and Means, which controls all reve
nue. legislation, has declared in signed state
ment that there will be no tariff bill reported
at this session of Congress. The Republi.
can standpat policy was agreed TO last Fall
by President Roosevelt and Speaker Cannon,
and the personnel OF the committee OF
Ways and Means was selected by Speak
er Cannon, SO that majority were ardent
protectionists. Thus, those Republicans
who favored the revision of the tariff that
POSTERS trusts and allows them to charge
plundering profits were again iooled. alter
voting for many Republican candidates for
those tariff schedules that protected the
trusts, prevented competition, and allowed
the trusts to sell cheaper abroad than here.
Then those Republican Congressman who
were pledged TO tariff reform, elected Mr.
Cannon as Speaker of the House and adopt
ed rules that gave him autocratic power
over legislation, they knew they were SELL
ing ont their constituents to the protected
monopolies and giving the party machine
the power TO defeat or pass such legislation
as 1t pleased.
The same conditions will obtain at the
election this Fall, and the question is, Can
the voters be fooled again to vote for Repub-
lican candidates for Congress who will
standpat and let the trusts continue TO plum.
der the consumers Promises OF Republi-
can candidates are OF no avail unless the
pledge is given TO keep out OF caucus and
vote for Speaker who will agree to give
tariff revision the right of way. That Mr..
Cannon will never accede to, for he is
an ardent protectionist. The member.
ship of the next Congress will be more
evenly divided between the parties and the
result In any district may determine which
party shall control. The trusts and cor
poratlons will pay money TO the Republi.
can campaign fund with the understanding
that their interests are TO be protected, but
none but the voters themselves will furnish
funds for efforts for the election OF the Dem
ocratlc candidates. That alone should be
their recommendation to independent vo.
tors, II they measure up, as they should, to
the Jefersonian requirements of ability and
honesty.

THE HYPOCRISY OF THE REPUB
LICAN PARTY.

The Republican party stands convicted
before the people OF the State Of Maryland
OF the grossest hypocrisy in the matter
have been Its cries at every election since
1896, about the evils OF Democratic election
laws, about alleged fraud and trickery, about
"trick ballot" and every conceivable form of
suffrage debauchery that their fertile brains
could devise. Year after year 1t has held
this horrible state of affairs up to the peo-
pie of the State, and il has been one OF
the greatest campaign arguments in their
favor that could have happened. Timid
voters have listened TO the sophslrles pre-.
sented and helped to elect its candidates in
Democratic strongholds. Republican lead
ers have put on the "holier than thou" man.
tie and raked In the profits Of the clever de.
ceptIon.
But now, when Democrats and Repubi.
cans alike have clamored for reforms and
changes, these same leaders played politics
to the limit and defeated every bill In the
Legislature that was offered to bring about
change in the conditions. Stone, Mudd,
Wachter and the rest of them held their
forces at Annapolis in hand, and whilst pre-.
tending TO be anxious to get some election
reform law passed, actually stood ont against
any and all of them. The election bills
offered were of Democratic origin and many
of them contained meritorious provisions.
The dominant party was divided on this
question and the Republicans did all In their
power to help along that situation. II that
party had been in earnest there would have
been no trouble in uniting with majority
In passing a satisfactory law to take the
place of the one now in operation and
against which they have SO slrenuously OBJ
jected.
The truth Of the matter Is, the Republic
cans did not want the Democrats pass any
election law, preierring to trust again to the
popular prejudice, which they have mainly
created, to carry their candidates through to
victory. They pretended to be such great
friends Of the Oyster Law, that they used
the Election Law as pendulum between,
and when the Oyster Bill was passed !,
they stopped the pendulum. Had the Re-
publicans been sincere in their wish for
election reform they would have united on
the Murphy bill when ii was reported to
the House on Monday night and give 1t
constitutional majority. AS 1t was 1t failed
TO pass, although 1t received 40 for and AZ
against. This law was especially intended
to prevent "trick ballots" just what the Re
publicans have been crying SO hard against.
The people will remember their part in de-
defeating the Murphy Election Law.-Fred

Representative Murdoch, of Kansas, In
the House Of Representatives on Friday last
made the claim that II the tax is taken off
denatured alcohol it will work a revolution
In the field of fuel, power and illuminants
He said, "This will be accomplished par.
TALLY through known methods, but greater
developments will come through methods
to be discovered.
"By known methods the same volume of
alcohol burns nearly twice as long as kero
sene and gives far better light; it is a
cleaner and safer fuel than gasoline. By
methods that are to come believe alcohol
will advance far beyond its present SUPER.
ority. 1 believe this because this country.
the chief producer Of corn, which is the
best source Of alcohol, has for nearly so
years held industrial alcohol in leash. Re-
lease It; let American genius have hold of
it, and it will open the door to a chamber of
mRrvels."
