Chairman Vandiver's Estimate

Chairman Vandiver's estimate of the
Bryan majority in Baltimore city is from
500 to 1000. He believes the counties
will come to Baltimore with from
$500 to $500 Bryan majority.

"The First district is safely Demo

conyulsion and commercial ruin.

convulsion and commercial ruin.
The Republican organs and speakers
who put out this cry, in order to work
upon the fears of the ignorant and
timid, know that there is no real ground
for this calamity howl.
They make it in vain hope that it may
divert attention, in some degrees at
least, from the deplorable condition to
which the clustering big Stick" poll
cies Of the present administration have
brought the business interests OF the
country, and to conceal, if possible, the
existing distressing situation of great
masses of our unemployed laboring
people.
They realize that full exposure of the
actual facts cannot fail to bring to the
support of our ticket vast multi udes OF
voters whom they desire to terrify and
mislead.
Surrounded on all sides by the pal
pable evidences of idle workmen-sus-
pended actories-inancial string ency
and widespread discomfort, they seek
to stay the swelling tide towards Demo-
cratic triumph by groundless prophecies
of the evils which will come upon the
country should the Republican party be
dislodged from the power which it has
so grievously abused.
The Democracy of Maryland cannot
be deceived by these false cries, nor be
caioled from their allegiance to their
Party by the vain-glorious boast of the
Republicans that the safety of the coun-
try depends upon the election Of Mr..
Taft.
At the polls they will make their in
dignant protest against the attempt of
Republican capitalists, unduly enriched
by lavish legislative protection, to in
timidate and coerce their employees by
threats of reduced wages and of total
loss of work if they dare to vote for
Mr.. Bryan.
Resolutely determined to obtain re-
vision of the tariff at the earliest practi-
cable moment they will not entrust the
work Of their deliverance from its con-
ceded burdens to the party which put
these burdens upon them, nor trust to
its promises to redress their grievances
if longer kept in power.
Deeply interested in the preservation
of peaceful and harmonious relations
betw cen Capital and Labor they will
use all their influence to secure the en-
actment of such conservative remedial
legislation by Congress as will pro-
tect the laboring man from the penal
ties of indirect contempt without in
ringing upon the proper and just
authority of the Courts.
Thoroughly convinced that the carry
ing into full effect of the principles of
the Democratic party will secure the
greatest good to the greatest number they
will resolutely cling to its national and
State organization and in this campaign
will show by their votes their loyalty
and devotion.
You must not allow Maryland to be
lost to US in this campaign.
You can easily carry the State if you
will come out on Election Day and vote
for our candidates.
l appeal to you to lay everything else
aside and devote that day to the cause
of your party and your country.

with local police authorities In the
handling OF anarchists. g Feat deal OF
good has been accomplished, Secretary
straus SAID this morning that although
the order was issued only Al Few days
ago. the benefcent results already have
been brought TO his attention.
There Is no complaint about the in
adequacy CT the present laws" said
Secretary Straus. "Our laws are all
right and quite sufficient 10 protect US
against anarchists and all other unde-
sirables. What IS needed is merely q
more rigid enforcement Of those laws
va have now on the books"
The Secretary cited an instance which
recently came up in Massachusetts 10

the Secretary Of State brought The mat

Then we instructed tho Immigration
