A Political Boomerang.

The savage and unwarranted onslaught
which the Baltimore Ne,os made last week
upon Mr.. Austin L. Crothers, the Demo-
cratic candidate for Governor, has proven
a veritable political Boomerang. The Aus
tralian Boomerang is an instrument so con-
structed that when thrown, it will describe
a series of curves and then come back to
the point from which it was thrown, to
strike the thrower. And so this attack OF
the Ne,os upon Judge Crothers, utterly
unsupported by any respectable testimony,
is being denounced all over the State as a
piece of dirty mudslinging.
There is nothing in our politics more to
be condemned than such procedure as
this. All decent men had hoped that the
day of personal party politics was gone
forever; that the attempt to debauch the
private character of political candidate
was course that no respectable paper Of
this day would enter upon. And so it is
not surprising that the Ne,ns is being con-
demned on every side.
The affair has stirred the Democrats
from one end of the State to the other,
who resent with indignation this attempt
to besmirch the good name Of their candi-
date for the high office of Governor
The Democratic papers have said moth
ing whatever, and we trust will not, against
the character Of Mr. Gather, the Repub
lican candidate for Governor, and all fair
minded people will applaud this course,
which in itself condemns the course of the
Neaos
There is a sense of fairness among the
American people that will not permit the
character of good man, no matter what
political party he may belong to, to be
improperly attacked without resenting it.
And so we find numbers of the Repub-
lican neighbors of Judge Crothers rallying
to his support, and characterizing the eff
fort of the Ne,os, as a piece of small, petty
and malicious politics.
We think the Ne,cs in its eagerness to
help the Republican party has overshot the
mark, and what it has done, will really do
the Democratic party good.
Let the campaign be conducted decently
and in order, and let the speakers and
papers fairly discuss the issues of the cam
paign, so that the people may intelligently
decide upon these issues at the coming
election. But above everything else, let
mere personalities be avoided. The people
Of Maryland are an intelligent people, and
are entitled to have in the present cam
paign, a fair and intelligent discussion of
the issues which have been joined by the
parties seeking their sutfrages.

The Presidents Omission.
From the Baltimore Sun.

From the Baltimore Sun.
President Roosevelt sentiment, expressed
in his Provincetown speech, that 'no man
shall amass great fortune by special priv'
lege'' ought to be gwen effect at once by
changing the Dingley tariff from q protective
to revenue measure. The object and effect
of the Dingley tariff is to tax A for BIS bene
ft-to make AS capital abnormally profitable
by compelling to buy of him at tariff en-
HANGED prices. The protective tariff is essen.
TALLY predacious and immoral. 1t is robbery
under the form of law and has done more than
any other one thing TO demoralize and corrupt
American politics and government. The mis-
deeds of the railroads and of the Standard Oil
Company are no greater thai the wrongs leg
allied and encouraged by the Dingley act, yet
the President strangely ignores the protected
corporations that have built up huge monopo
lies and goes exclusively after corporations
that enjoy no protection. Is it that he Is
friendly to the special privileges of our tariff
lords?
The Presidents position needs explanation.
E1lS SuCCeSS, 50 idT rs lie HAS SucCeeueu1 uoS
been in appealing to the moral sense of the
public. He contends for a square deal"
But while denouncing various forms of wrong,
he stops short of denouncing the Ubiquitous
discrimination in prices practiced by the ben.
efciaries of the tarf-the high prices exacted
by them of Americans as compared with the
low prices given to foreigners. By protecting
manufacturers from foreign competition the
Dingley act promotes the growth of trusts and
monopolies. Were foreign goods let in under
tariff for revenue, our existing oppressive
monopolies would be forced to deal more
fairly with their fellow-citizens. 1t is the
protection" of the home manufacturer from
foreign competition that enables him to or
ganize and maintain his monopoly, to the
grievous injury of the masses of consumers.
Yet with all his dozens of speeches and hun
dreds Of suggestions of new laws, President
Roosevelt has little or nothing to say about
tariff wrongs. His courage is unequal TO the
task of assailng the principal tenet of his
party. 1t is enough for him to attack corpor.
atoms that enjoy no "proteclon.
