with his brush after an exciting and extend
ed chase. The party went down Watts
Branch about two miles and started fox.
Mr.. Cummings pack of an even dozen dogs
was somewhat weary after long road-trip
that morning, but some of his white dogs
were always in the forefront In the run.
The black and tan dogs from up the country
were very Industrious in seeking out the
fox, and set q hot pace when they struck his
trail, as they also did in the run home about
dark behind the drag. Three of them were
the only ones to overtake the drag.
Those persons participating in the hunt
were Messrs. James P. Colt, A. j. Cum

Democratic Campaign Contributions.

The undersigned, as Treasurer OF the Com.
mlttee of One Hundred, political organi-
cation throughout the State Of Maryland for
the purpose OF electing Bryan and Kern
and the regular Congressional candidates Of
the Democratic party, having duly given
bond to the State OF Maryland and filed the
same with the Secretary Of State, as pro.
vided under chapter 1879 of the Acts Of the
General Assembly of Maryland OF 1908 for
the purpose of preventing corrupt practices,
is now 10 position to receive and account
for, according to law, such contributions as
may be made by all citizens; and has also
been appointed by the Democratic National
Committee, member of the Finance Com.
mittee of the National Organization for the
State OF Maryland.
This new law, which throws much labor
on political treasurers, directs the names OF
all contributors and the amounts given to
be made public record in the Circuit Court
Clerks office OF the respective counties or
Baltimore City. No subscriptions without
the name of the giver can be received. Any
person who subscribes In any other name
than his own, and every treasurer who
knowingly receives such a subscription, is
subject to fine and imprisonment and will
be Ineligible to public office for four years
from the date of the offense. A detailed &C
count of expenditures is required. The law
prohibits subscriptions from corporations.
The publicity thus given to all subscrp-
tions is apparently Intended TO discourage
them from the special interests for improper
purposes and also correspondingly to en-.
courage the party leaders and benefciaIies,
including the rank and file Of the people,
whose interests are served by honest gov.
eminent, to bear the campaign expenses Of
the party which they choose to support.
The public record Of contributions will thus
serve as an index OF the individuals who
give financial support TO the Democratic
party in this important campaign.
Every Democrat 10 the State Of Maryland i,
who is financially able, should at once make
contribution for the cause either to local
Treasurer, 70 the Treasurer Of the State Cen
trail Committee, Hon. Murray Vandiver, or
70 the undersigned, and the name of the
contributor will be placed on the Roll Of
Honor TO be recorded 10 the courts OF record
as directed by the Statute.
II the people desire 70 rule and throw off
the woke of the special interests, they should
respond TO this lawful opportunity and con-
tribute to necessary and proper political
expenses.
