Since my retirement l have been requested by
successive police commissioners to give them any

inside information about the department. In one
case, a commissioner asked pointblank to give
him the of certain patromen and ward de-

commissioners. This is not the spirit in which any
body of men can be governed, and unhesitatingly

HUSTLING FOR
BRYAN & KERN.
Hon. John Walter Smith, State
Leader, Is Doing All In His
Power To Win Victory.

Senator John Walter Smith, who ar
rived home from Europe few weeks
ago has been taking a rest since his
arrival preparatory to getting in fit
condition for arduous campaign work in
the interest Of Bryan, Kern and Cow
ington. In numerous conversations
wirh the editors of this paper he has
expressed confidence in Democratic sue
cess in this State He says Mr. Bryan
is truly a great man and that every
Democrat and every man who desires
the best interest Of the country should
vote for him and for party which
stands honestly for tariff reduction.
Senator Smith went to Baltimore on
Monday and the Sun had this to say of
his visit:
United State senator John Walter
Smith -as at his Offices in the Union
Trust Building yesterday. for the first
time in more than week. Senator
Smith has been spending most Of the
time since his return from Europe at
his home in Snow Hill He expressed
great interest in the political situation
in the city and conferred during the
day with a number Of the local poll
ticians, Of whom he asked numerous
questions.
80 far as the Eastern Shore is con-
cerned. " sand Senator Smith. Il think
things are in excellent shape from the
Democratic standpoint The party in
the First district seems united and
harmonious The Democrats are APP
parently enthusiastic for the Congress
sional as well as the national ticket. and
firmly believe that Mr.. Covington will
be elected to Congress in this district
Eieis making an energetic and aggress-
i've campaign to which the people appear
to be responding. The Democrats on
the Eastern Shore propose to adhear
rigidly to the Corrupt Practices act, and
if the Republicans do the same we will
carry the district and elect Mr.. Coving
ton for Congress.
Senator Smith will spend the rest Of
the week in Baltimore and will confer
tomorrow with the State managers. in
cluding Chairman Vandiyer, concerning
the progress of the campaign He is
interested in the fight here and it is
probable that he may make one or two
speeches before the campaign is over.

Democratic Campaign Con-
tributiOnS.

The undersigned, as Treasurer Of the
Committee of One Hundred political
organization throughout the State of
Maryland for the purpose of electing
Bryan and Kern and the regular Con
gressional candidates of the Democratic
party. having duly given bond to the
State of Maryland and filed the same
with the Secretary of State, as provided
under chapter I'D of the Acts of Assem-
bly, Of Maryland of 1908 for the purpose
of preventing corrupt practices, IS now
in 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 Committee of the National Or
ganization 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 "A public
record in the Circuit Court Clerk S
office of the respective counties or Bal
timore 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 sub
scription, is subject to fine and imprison-
ment and will be ineligible to public
office for four years from the date
of the offence. A detailed account of
expenditures is required. The law pro-
hibits subscriptions from corporations.
The publicity thus given to all sub
scriptions is apparently intended to dis
courage them from the special interests
for improper purposes and also cores
pondingly to encourage the party lead
ers and benefciaries, including the rank
and file of the people. whose interests
are served by honest government, 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 Demo
cratic party in this important campaign.
Every Democrat in the State of Mary
land. who is financially able. should at
once make "a contribution for the cause
either to local Treasurer. to the
Treasurer of the State Central Com
mttee. Hon. Murray Vandiver. or to
the undersigned. and the name of the
contributor will be placed on the Roll
of Honor to be recorded in the courts
of record as directed by the Statute.
If the people desire to rule and throw
off the yoke of the special interests.
they should respond to this lawful OPP
portunity and contribute To necessary
and proper political expenses.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness.
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an infamed con
dition of the mucous lining of the Eus-
tachian Tube. When this tube is in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed. Deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever: nine cases out of ten are caused
by Catarrh. which is nothing but an in
famed condition Of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by
catarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars. free.

Brydn'S Election Will Re-
store Confidence.

Our national wealth is estimated at
about Sl20. 900, 600, 600 and the money in
circulation is over, as estimated, 81
500, 900, 900. hence, as a business man
fully appreciate the great Importance
that class legislation should be discoun-
tenanced and legislation for the people
take its place, so that we may have
speedy return of confidence to the bust
ness world and have the boarded mil
lions of money put back into the chan
nels Of trade and prosperity return.
Men who range themselves on the cor
rupt side of power. will be found in both
the Republican and the Democratic par
ties. and perhaps always will be. but
this should not prevent us an individuals
or as a nation from having high ideals
for candidates and for parties. even if
we fail sometimes in securing them.
As an expression of the political ten
denotes of the voters, would state
that without my solicitation am just
advised by three Republican voters of
intelligence and standing. one Of whom
is Federal office holder. two of them
stating that they were displeased with
present political conditions created by
the Republican party, and they would
vote for Mr.. Bryan. while the Federal
office holder stated that he would do so.
but for the fact that il might cost him
his position,
am only commission merchant,
not a politician in the general ac-
ceptance of the term, though have
given much Of my time both in private
life and as public official. in favor Of
the best political methods. both III
national and municipal administrations.
OF course. we know it is how man
votes that counts. more than what he
simply feels and believes. but if this
feeling Of resentment exists among the
Republican voters to any extent. il
would seem to indicate that the people
Of this country will select Mr.. Bryan
for the President Of the United States,
and that the rule of the people by the
people will become condition and not
theory.

Lots of people paint lead-and-oil,
paint once in three years. and think
themselves wise they are wasting half
their money and fuss. They're so sure
they are wise. they die as they live,
paint foolish, Experience teaches them
nothing.
There's another set. who buy paint
by the gallon. and go by the price OF a
gallon. They think one price is high.
and another is low and they pay about
middling why don't they pay low
They know that milk isn't dear or cheap
by the price of quart that the milk
has something to do with II. They don Z
buy cheap" milk but they buy
cheap" paint and pay double. FIX
perience teaches them nothing.
There's another set. They painted
years ago lead and-oil exhausted that.

Mr.. Bryan. who with all his vagaries
has shown himself in this controversy

that it is impossible to continue a dis
