more City and the more populous counties OF
Western Maryland
It appears that under the imitation primary
system go Democratic voters in a county Ike
Calvert will have as much power in naming
state candidates as two thousand Democratic
voters in Baltimore City. Naturally, the people
of Baltimore are disappointed and indignant at
not getting the equal rights which were prom
sed them. Says "The Baltimore Sun:
The primary law which the Legislature has
enacted is in gross and fragrant violation OF the
principle of equality of representation. IL eS-
ia blshes q system of discrimination which is
utterly un-Democratic. 1t practically disfran. :.
chises n-eighths OF the Democratic voters OF
the city Of Baltimore, compared with some
other sections of the state. In Calvert County
two hundred and fifty Democratic voters are en-
titled to delegate In a state convention Baiti-
more City's representation is fixed on the basis
of one delegate for about two thousand voters
The suggestion that primary system oaseu
upon the virtual GisfranchiSement OF IS per cent
of the Democratic voters Of this city is re-
demption Of the party's pledge is prepOsterous
and a reflection upon the intelligence or Demo
Gratis. 1t serves notice in brutal terms upon the
Democratic voters of Baltimore that they must
accept the position of an inferior ana InpoIei,l
minority in the partyS conventions, altnouSh
their votes are indispensable TO party victory.
The progressive Democrats in Baltimore are
already announcing that they will not support
the new disfranchisement amendment II they
cannot have q genuine primary Yet the per-
petuation of the Democratic machine depends
upon It's success first in dsfranchsing the negro,
and next In disfranchising large proportion
as possible of the Intelligent Democratic vote
The Democratic party in Maryland, as at pres
ent managed. cannot afford to encourage free
dom Of action or equality of representation, and
Maryland will enjoy neither until its bosses Of
the smithsonian order are driven from power.

Y. w. C. AS PRACTICAL WORK.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In these days when all-Christian. Jew and
Pagan-are crying out for practical Christianity
1t is most satisfactory TO its friends feel and to
know that the Young Women's Christian Associa-
tion, No. East 18th street New York City Is ac-
complishing that in its work for women. The mere
fact that it was been the means OF raising the
salaries of its graduates from the pitiful sum OF
81 or s. a week TO $40 and more is sufficient alone
to commend itself to all right thinking benevolent
persons interested in the work for women and the
question continually arises. Why not more men
and giving financial aid to this institution
which is doing much to tighten the worlds
burden?
May this question soon be answered satisfactorily.

( VICIOUS SUGGESTION.

The obvious effect of the constitutional amend
nelt favoring the veterans of recent wars in
Civil Service examinations. now on the calen-
dars Of both the Senate and the Assembly At
Albany would be TO demoralize the Civil Service
of the state. There are 50 many veterans of the
Steansh-Ameyican and the Philippine wars and
of the expedition 10 Peking that if the coIstltl-
ton were so amended as TO add 10 per cent 10
their ratings on Civil Service examinations, it
would be practically impossible TO appoint any
but veterans TO the vacancies occurring in the
Civil Seryice for many years to come. There
ere about tLirty-one thousand of these veterans
In the state who would receive the benefit if they
chose TO try for appointment, and there are only
5I,s32 competitive places in the state county
and municipal service. Only a comparatively
small number OF vacancies occur annually, and
the addition OF 10 per cent 10 the ratings Of vet
would probably keep the leading places on
the eligible list constantly filed with the names
of former soldiers.
The addition of ten points 10 the rating Of
candidate some Of these lists would advance
him over the heads OF go competitors who had
demonstrated on examination better Quafca-
Iions for appointment than he Thus the effect
Of such an amendment would be 10 fiji most fuf-
IRE vacancies with inferior men, and, once these
inferior appointees in office. the same rule
adding ten points to their standing would result
In their being more rapidly promoted than their
aber rivals Ia this way the decentralization OF the
service would soon become complete. AS the
law at present eXempts the recent veteran from
the operation OF the ordinary regulations regard
Ing the dismissal CT Civil Service employees the
effect would be TO Ill the service with incompe-
tents and keep them there.

Sill YER MINING REVISED
IN SANTA CRUZ COUNTY
Work Being Resumed on the Long
Neglected American.

Patagonia. June SPECIAL coiTes-
pondence of The Republican.-Anoth-
er of the old silver mines near Pata-
gonia will be called upon to disgorge
some more of the white metal. The
American, about ten miles east of
town, is the property, and this week a
number of men, three shifts. were put
at work sinking the shaft to get under
the old workings.
The American has not been worked
for almost twenty years, except for
short time, when it was worked by
Frank Powers and others. 1t is own
ed by Frank Hereford and Charles
Hoff of Tucson, who, six months ago,
gave two year lease to Joseph Brown
of Harshaw. Brown has been work.
ing the mine alone for the past six
months, taking out high grade silver
ore and shipping it. Last week he
took in with him on the lease, S. F.
Johnson of Chicago, who began work
at the property this wekk.
The American WAS worked to
depth of only one hundred feet, and
as the ore was mined down the waste
rock and low grade ore was left in the
workings. only the high grade being
taken out and shipped. Worked in
that way the lower fifty feet of the
workings is filled in. About seventy
five feet from the shaft that was
formerly used as a workshaft, a new
shaft is down ninety feet. This shaft
is now being sunk and the sinking will
continue to a depth of $50 feet. From
that depth a drift will be driven under
the old workings and the ore stopped
out.
The work heretofore done at the
American was not according to any
recognized system. The underground
workings are like to many great
grounding holes, twisting and turning
in all directions, widening out in some
places and narrowing in other places.
just following the rich streaks of ore
through the larger body of low grade
ore Nothing but pay dirt" was
taken out. 1t was what is commonly
referred to here as Mexican mining.
The shaft at the Four Metals mine.
sixteen miles east of Patagonia. is now
down 1l5 feet and a station is being
cut at the 1O0-foot level, from which
a crosscut will be driven to the vein.
At the Red Hill tunnel, also on the
Four Metals property. the manage
ment expects to cut the vein in about
six weeks.
The hoist has just been put in place
at the National Consolidated mine and
sinking has been resumed. The shaft
is down 1856 feet and has just struck
the vein, the bottom of the shaft now
being in ore. ore is still being taken
out at the 100-foot level, where the
vein is three feet wide. When the
shaft has reached a depth Of 200 feet
second level will be cut and if the
improvement is as great in the second
hundred feet as it was in the first
hundred feet. the National Consolidat-
ed viii probably soon be listed among
the paying mines. Superintendent
George Cross thinks it will.
