Maryland democrats cannot present
the excuse, urged so eloquently in
some southern states, that they fear
negro domination IL the franchise is
not restricted. The white population
of Maryland exceeds that of the negro
by more than five to one and the in

entirely on race discrimination. The
Maryland lawmakers have not even
been honest enough to make intelli-

CENSUS PATRONAGE.

The house committee on census has
recommended that employees required
for the taking of the thirteenth census
shall not be appointed under civil serv-
ice rules. The bill provides for mon
competitive" examinations, which
means simply that each member of
congress will be authorized to appoint
about eight or ten persons from his
district This allotment of patronage
assures support for the bill sufficient
to assure its practically unobstructed
passage by congress.
President Roosevelt. the civil serv-
ice commission and two former d.
rectors of the census have opposed this
plan of selecting census employees.
They have urged that best results can
be secured only by the selection of
census employees on their merits. The
census reports have come to have
peculiar value to many interests and
there is every reason why they should
be compiled by most competent and
The objections to the noncompetitive
system of appointment are obvious. 1t
places, although temporarily, several
thousand employees on the federal pay
roll, causing a season of scrambling
and wire pulling among the constit-
uents of every member of congress.
The list, when made up, is very certain
to contain large percentage of men
and women chosen solely on account
of their political backing rather than
their fitness for the work in hand.
After the census work has been COM
pleted another effort will be made to
have these temporary employees placed
on the permanent classified roll, max
ing them eligible to positions in every
branch of the service and thus reduc-
ing the efficiency of the entire civil
service list of employees.

The proposal to put some legal re-
strictions on the sale of deadly weapons
in Omaha is good as far as it goes, but
does not go far enough. The trouble
is that such restrictions reach only
local dealers, while anyone who really
wants a gun can get it by going across
the river or ordering by mail. The
thing needed is to make the possession
of weapon prima facie evidence of
guilty Intent unless the contrary is
proved. This promiscuous gun-toting
should be stopped.
