STATE CAMPAIGN.

At meeting held in Frederick city
last week, at which were assembled
prominent citizens from every section
of Frederick county, the first y air
ballot League" was organized for ag-
gressive work in this state next year,
to the end that fair and honest methods
in the reguIa ton Of the ballot system
may be restored and maintained and to
the further purpose OF frustrating the
general DISTINGUISHING scheme by which
the manipulative politicians Of the
Democratic party hope to permanently
perpetuate their power The move
ment which has been started in Fred
erick must be extended to every county
in the state, says the Baltimore Ameri-
can.
There is already indication that the
powers in control of the Democratic
organization are preparing for an ac-
tive propagandism of reform promises
next year. 1t is not likely that the
people of the state will have forgotten
the promises that were made in 1907
and how those promises were kept by
the Democratic majority in the legisla-
ture that was elected that year Those
padded payrolls, to VIII CHI the retiring
Governor called specific attention, indi-
eating exactly how $75, 900 in legislative
expenditures had been clean waste,
continued to be padded notwithstand-
ing Governor Warfeld's warning and
admonition. Now a reform commits
sion" has prepared legislative reform
sci enc by which it is suggested that
$50, 900 Of this squandered money will
be saved. 1t would have been saved at
the last session if the Democratic ma
jority had been willing. The Demo-
cratic managers seem to believe that
they can forever hoodwink the people
with promises.
There never has been in the political
history of this state an election involv-
ing issues more cruciallv affecting the
welfare of the commonwealth than the
election that will be held next year.
The Frederick meeting last week in the
resolutions declaring for the restoration
of fair methods to the franchise system
invited the cooperation of "all good
citizens regardless of party utilization. "
The political salvation of this state is
dependent upon such cooperation with
the effortxxwhich the Republican party
is making to save the state from the
perpetual control of political machine.

OLD ISSUES DEAD.

Mr.. Taft stands for one standard for
voters white and black. He has no
use for legislative enactments or con-
stitutional amendments so constructed
as to make it easy for an illiterate white
man to vote and hard or impossible for
the colored man. It's square deal
policy and when this rule is applied to
the election law of Maryland and the
proposed DISTINGUISHING amendment,
the Maryland Democratic way is found
to be based upon greed or power and
not because this state is in the slightest
danger of negro domination. We have
printed in full Mr.. Taft's address to
the South because we think it is clear
and manly statement of the Republican
attitude toward the South. The South
is prospecting and many of its leading
men, who for years have been kept in
the Democratic party on dead issues,
are awaking to the fact that in many
leading policies they are in accord with
the Republican party and are becoming
tired of their section having so small a
part IN bringing into close sympathy
all sections and we look for a new
South politically as it is now new in
dustriaIly.
