CAMPAIGN EXPENDITURES.

We sincerely hore that the enthusi-
asm Of the Democratic organization for
Bryan-anI Governor Crothers SAYS it
viii jump right into the fight for him
will extend to that plank in the platform
which demands publicity of campaign
expenditures both before and after the
election. Mr.. Bryan thinks that cleo
ton corruption is one of he vital feat
ures of the campaign, and intends to
lay stress upon it from the start. We
hope that our own local speilbinders
when they take the stump will follow
the cue of their chief. OF course, there
is TO b. no eX post facto proceeding.
There are a few distinguished Office
holders in Maryland who can, and who
probably will, make welkin ring
with denunciation of corruption at cleo
Cions but who couldn't ach the tim
bers quick enough if publicity of their
campaign expenditures we've Gale for.
Baltimore News.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1908-07-16

sumes or hopes that he can do in 1908
what Mr.. Cleveland accomplished in
1882. Mr.. Cleveland got one electoral
vote from Ohio, five electoral votes
from Michigan and all the electoral
OF Indiana, Illinois and Wisconsin.
The result was that although as a mat
ter Of fact Mr. Cleveland obtained plu-
ralities in New York, New Jersy and
Connecticut he might haye lost those
States and yet have won the presidency
by majority of Is electoral votes.
Evidently it is this precedent which
is encouraging Mr.. BRYAN. The situa-
ton, however, in the middle West is
materially different from what it was
sixteen years ago. The states of Ohio,
Indiana and Illinois had given no strik-
ing pluralities against Mr.. Cleveland in
1885, and he carried Indiana in 1884.
-Four years ago, on the other hand, Mr..
Roosevelt swept Ohio by upward Of
255, 900 plurality, Indiana by more than
$4,000, and Illinois by phenomenal
figures. How can such start be
overcome? State pride, which is en-
listed for Taft, seems certain to prove
a more potent factor in Ohio than anv
apathy caused by fractional dissensions
IN the party. In Indiana the friends of
Vice President Fairbanks may not sup
port the Republican ticket with all the
energy which they evinced in 1904, but
they can scarcely be expected to en-
brace with ardor the cause of Mr.. John
W. Kern, whose aspirations for the
Governoship of their state they have
twice defeated. In Illinois Mr.. BRYAN
has twice experience a disastrous
rout, although in 1896 he had the ad-
vantage of following Mr.. Cleveland 5
victory in that commonwealth. The
Republicans are incomparably strong
er now in Illinois than they were in Mr..
Bryan's previous campaign. Nor can
he hope to wrest from its old utilization
with the Republican party the Scandi-
navian vote in Michigan, Wisconsin,
Minnesota and North Dakota, which
Governor Johnson might have secured.
"As for Kansas, Nebraska, South
Dakota, i%Colorado, Montana, Idaho.
Wyoming, Utah and Nevada, Mr.. Bry-
ans chance Of carrying them has for
the most part passed away with the
issue of!free silver, which he personif-
ed so illustriously twelve years ago.
"Our conclusion is that Mr.. Bryan
plan Of campaign is by no means pro-
missing and that he will be lucky if he
gets more electoral votes than he OBJ
tanned in 1909. -

RESUMPTION OF INDUSTRY.

Now, however, and it is one of the i'm
portant signs of the times, the works
are again employing 5000 men and
gradually adding to the number. New
orders are being received, and labor is
sharing in the prosperity which is COM

industrial institutions of this region.

MOUNTAIN LAKE PARK.

The great camp-meeting closed Mon
day night A very large audience filed
the Tabernacle while hundreds remain
ed outside. The closing sermon was by
Rev. Henry Ostrem, a great favorite of
the meeting this summer. The meet
ing was dismissed at 1870, but many
remained at and about the altar
until near midnight, 10th to leave the
sacred spot where many of them had
been so blessed.
The attendance for the entire meeting
was fully equal to that CT any year in
its history, and the crowd last Sunday
was greater than ever before.
The announcement Saturday evening
that Rev Joseph Smith would have
charge Of the meeting next year was
received with a sea of waving handker-
chess and other manifestations OF JOY
and pleasure.
There is general expression Of opin-
ion that the meeting next year viii be
much more largely attended by minis
tars, evangelists and others than eyer
before in its history.
The annual meeting Of the Commu-
nitv was held yesterday morning when
the following officers We're elected for
the ensuing year:

John D. Hayden, Supt. OF the electric

and dislocating the elbow of the same
arm besides receiving many bruises.
DR., H. w. McComas, reduced the frac-
ture and the patient is now doing well,

TO HASTEN WORK OF GOOD ROADS
1t May Be Possible to Let Some of the
Contracts in February.

The Good Roads Commission will
meet today in its office in the Union
Trust building. Baltimore, and will
consider the routes for the new roads
in Calvert and St Mary's counties.
Resident and property owners in both
counties will be heard and it is probable
that before the meeting adiourns the
routes will be selected.
The commission is now perfectly
organized, both in engineering and
clerical forces, and the commissioners
believe construction work should begin
Immediately. 1t is realized that after
the routes are selected it will REQUIRE
several weeks to secure all rights-of-
way and then the specifications for
doing the work will be advertised sew
eral weeks before bids are opened.
There is general demand that these
details be arranged as soon as possible
and contracts let so that some work
can be done the latter part of the sum-
mer and in the fall. During the winter
months it is impossible to build roads.
Considerable progress, it is believed
could be made on the roads before cold
weather sets in.
During the winter the details for the
road running through the Eastern Shore
counties and several roads in Western
Maryland will be mapped out, so that
it will be possible to let some contracts
in February and the contractors will
be able to begin work as soon as spring

from his qualification over the platform

TIE ISSUES.

From long and well written editor
ial in Mondays Baltimore Sun, the in
ference may be fairly drawn that that
newspaper will be most conservative in
its utterances in this campaign. After
presenting a symposium of p ;blic opin-
ion .gathered from the newspapers in
the North, South, East and West, and
discovering that the press is discuss
ing the political situation in practical,
sensible and, in the main, well balanc-
ed way" concludes as follows:
Rejecting men and journals are con-
WINGED that the issues involved in this
campaign call for no outbul SITS of hys-
terra, no vehement .denunciation of
political opponents, no appeals to class
prejudice. The newspaper comments
which we have published Indicate avery
grave interest and concern on the part
of the press in questions at stake in the
Presidential contest this year Bat,
except in very few quarters, we find at
pres Mt no disposition to suggest that a
man cannot be Democrat or a Repub-
lican without exposing himself to the
suspicion that he is public enemy.
There are millions of good citizens in
each of the two great parties. They
are honest and patriotic according to
their light They vote their honest
convictions, and in doing this they exer-
else the right of American citizens to
vote as they believe. Before the close
of this campaign the American people
will have the opportunity to consider all
arguments for and against the policies
and the candidates OF the two leading
parties Having heard the case pre-
sented for both sides, they will be pre-
pared to render an intelligent verdict
ION the whole, the press Of the Uni
ted States has started the discussion in
spirit free from rancor and devoid of
hysteria or vehemence. The leaders in
both parties and the orators should CO.
operate with the press to make this a
campaign of light and leading and
seek TO influence voters by argument
addressed to the conscience and convic-
tons and minds of citizens. The
thoughtful press has given party mana
gers very striking suggestions in its
comments as to the spirit in which the
Presidential contest of 1868 should be
conducted. No partisan who claims to
be guided by the sincere convictions
and absolute honesty of purpose can
rightly deny the same virtues to the
partisan Of an opposing party. No
man of Independent views will deny
that the partisan is exercising an in
dependent voter exercises an unques-
tionalbe- and inalienable right in voting
his convictions regardless Of party. The
comments of the discriminating prees
indicate that in this campaign there is a
probability, especially in the West, of
both parties recruiting from each other
with the independent voter an impor-
tant factor this year as in the past.
With campaign of enlightment and
reason all along the line the American
people will be enabled to solve their
problems with greater regard for the
national welfare and the material pros
perity Of the country than in cam
paign of bitter denunciation and danger
Gus appeals to class prejudice.
