Campaign Contributions.

The campaign of Bryan and Kern
must be conducted by the people. The
people must pay the necessary CAM
paign expenses if they want public
servants who will serve their in
terests.
The Advocate will receive subscrip-
tions to the Democratic National cam
paign fund and urges all loyal Demo-
Gratis to send in their contributions.
We will transmit them weekly to Gov.
c. n. Haskell, treasurer of the Demo-
cratic National Committee, who will
issue to each contributor a beauti-
fully executed acknowledgment print
ed in three colors as souvenir of
their devotion to the cause of Demo
cracy and the principles of Govern
ment by the People.
When sending in your contribution
money use the accompanying remit
tance blank, and, unless otherwise
requested your name will be printed
in the Advocate, together with the
amount given.

Meeting of State Central Committee.

The meeing of the Democratic State
Central Committee at the EutaW
House, Baltimore, Wednesday, was one
of the largest and most enthusiastic
held in the State in many years.
In stirring address Chairman Van
diver declared that this is no time
for "lukewarmness," and that there
is no excuse for Indifference or deser-
ton" He lauded Bryan and predicted
that with full vote Maryland would
give its electoral vote for Bryan and
Kern.
Attorney General Isaac Lobe Straus
elucidated to the members of the COM
mittee and the party people generally
the Corrupt Practices act, of which he
is the author, opening the eyes of some
of those who were disposed to think
there are loop holes" in the law
Strong resolutions were adopted in
the form of an address to the Demo
cracy of Maryland, in which an appeal
is made to all Democrats to put their
shoulders to the wheel and help elect
the ticket. Bryan is warmly praised
and his stand upon the issues of the
day Is commended.
The Democratic advocate., 1908-09-04

Mr. Bryan is undoubtedly setting
the pace for the Republicans. Mr..
Taft now announces that he will call
Congress in extra session immediately
after his Inauguration for a revision
of the tariff Congressman Payne, of
New York who will have charge of
the MEASURE in the House, in a public
speech last week said the time had ar
rived for a Encouragement of the tariff
schedules. Governor Cummins, Re-
publican, has called a special session
of the Legislature of Iowa to provide
a measure by which the voters of that
State may express their preference for
United States Senator. The Kansas
Republican State convention incorpo-
rated in their platform a plank pro-
viding for the guarantee of bank de-
posits, and other Western States are
enthusiastic over this feature of the
Democratic platform. 1t is highly
complimentary to Mr.. Bryan that his
prescription for the country's ills
should be indorsed by such eminent
authorities 1t begins to look as
though the Republicans are being
forced by popular clamor to crowd Mr..
Bryan off his own platform.

THE LINCOLN HIGHWAY.

The centenary of Lincoln's birth
comes on the 18th of next February.
The question of Lincoln memorials
is one that has naturally been much
discussed. In this issue we publish
an article by the Hon. James T. Nc
Cleary, of Minnesota, advocating as
the most appropriate memorial to Lin
coin a magnificent highway from
Washington to Gettysburg, to be cali
ed the Lincoln Road" Mr.. McCleary
for a number of years held the chair
manship of the House Committee on
the Library, which has jurisdic-
tion over the Library of Congress, the
Botanical Garden, and all art matters
under Congressional control. Mr.
McCleary was sent to Europe in 1905
to secure information and ideas for
the Abraham Lincoln Memorial Com
mission appointed by act of Congress
to make report on suitable national
memorial. For the fourteen years
from March, 1898, to March, 1907
Mr.. McCleary represented the Second
Minnesota District in Congress. He
was beaten in the last election by his
Democratic competitor. but has been
renominated and will make fight to
win back his old seat this year. Mean
while he is serving as Second Assist

THE PRESENT CAMPAIGN.

There is every reason why the pres
ent campaign in this state, should,
upon the Democratic side, be of the
most active character, and we have
assurances from Democratic headq-
quarters that this will be the case.
The Democratic party has great deal
at stake in the present campaign, and
it is the duty of every Democrat to
see to it, so far as he can, that Mary
land is kept in the Democratic column
at the coming election. This is norm
ally a Democratic state, and whenever
it has been carried by the Republi-
cans, it has been because certain men
who call themselves Democrats help
ed to do it.
In this campaign the voters are call
ed upon to choose between Democrat
and a Republican President, and be-
tween Democrats and Republicans for
Congress. The issues which divide
the Democratic party from the Repub
lican party are directly involved in
the present contest, and these issues
are sharply and distinctly drawn. 1t
is high protective tariff, creating trusts
and monop0lies, on the one side, or
tariff for such revenue only as will
support the government, economically
administered, on the other. 1t is CEN
tralization of the powers of the fed
eral government. on the one side, or
the rights of the states to manage and
control their own affairs, on the
other These are some of the promi
nent issues in the present campaign.
And VIC take it. no good Democrat will
sAesustc to take his place with his
party in such a contest. But he must
do more than that. If he wishes his
party to succeed, he must exert his
influence to promote it's principles.
Mr. Roosevelt has trampled down
all conservative ideas of the powers
of the federal government and has run
rough-shod over law and precedents,
in his mad rush for power. No crown
ed head of Europe Is more autocratic
than President Roosevelt when he
sets himself to accomplish his pur-
pose.
And Mr.. Taft tells us that, If elected,
he will carry out Mr.. Roosevelts poll
cies. The country is tired Of Mr..
Roosevelt, with his everlasting agita-
ton, and do not want it continued in
Mr.. Taft.
And, then, again, the Democratic
party is greatly interested in carry
ing Maryland at the coming election
by a good majority. for its influence
upon the state election q year hence.
Let us not forget that at that time
we vote upon the constitutional amend
ment. which If adopted will eliminate
all the venal and illiterate negroes
from our electorate. We vote also for
a legislature which will choose a
United States Senator, to succeed
Senator Rayner. and a State Treas
urer to succeed Hon. Murray Vandiver
There will also be one state candi-
date for Comptroller of the Treasury
So that there is every reason why
the present camapign should be ac'
tive and energetic from start to finish
The Democrats of this county, loyal
to their party, are ready to fall into
