TIE EcL1psE OF THE sun.

1t was instructive the other day to note an
editorial in the Baltimore organ of the Demo-
cratic ring indorsing Judge Gaynor, the Tam
many candidate for Mayor of New York.
Why that paper should go out of its way to
give support to an office-seeker far beyond its
sphere of influence is not easy to see, and
Furthermore it is hardly creditable to indorse
Gaynor and thus indirectly give its approval
even though this approval is lacking in
heart-to the VIGOROUSLY corrupt Tammany
Hall. 1t was not necessary to see new details
published about Tammany's alliance with vice
in its worst form in order that men of average
morality and average intelligence and some
courage should shun it and all those who form
such men in Pennsylvania need restatement
of the details of the Harrisburg Capitol graft
and other outrages in our neighbor State to
cause them to oppose their Republican ring.
And besides, the worthy Judge has been max
ing circus out of himself. with all the side
shows complete, during this campaign.
But the attitude in this matter of the Mary
land Democratic ring organ is of piece with
its position on most local matters. When it
sees fit to take stand on important questions
land often it is weakly non-committal when
splendid opportunities to influence its readers
on great issues present themselves) it shows
the most extraordinary short-sightedness-
shortsghtedness from the standpoint of its
own welfare as well as for that of the public
good At the present time for example, it is
filling its columns, regardless of truth, with
stuff in favor of the proposed constitutional
amendment that is meant to infame the pre-
JUDGE of the unthinking. 1t states and re-
states that no white man will lose his vote in
the event of the passage of the amendment.
Leaving aside the many questions that that
statement brings up at once in ones mind. let
us ask, what about the numerous foreigners,
some of whom are already with us and are
proving their worth, who will be naturalized
and thus become American citizens after the
amendment is accepted (Which will surely not
happen, in our opinion? And what about
their descendants? A careful reading of the
measure will show that unless they pay taxes
on $500 worth of property they will have to
undergo the so-called educational test, and does
any sane man honestly suppose that they will
pass it? Not for a moment But what would
that matter to the Democratic ring? They
would have large majority of the voters,
who would obediently cast their ballots for any
candidate and for any measure furnished by
the ring, and the ring would tell these new
citizens in language none too polite to go
about their business.
We have said that this sort of thing is short
sighted from the standpoint of the Suns well
fare. This is true because it has lost and is
losing still more of the respect of decent, level
headed people. Men of judgment will not
stand for all time for the rot that is furnished
them day by day. The only reason the paper
has held the little prestige it now possesses is
that there is no irst-class morning daily in
Baltimore to which the people can turn.

A GOOD BEGINNING.

beginning has been made in the way Of
systematic athletic instruction and practice in
the public schools and it is pleasant to think
of this as an opening wedge, which will rend
the mass of inertia and make way for more
complete and general training in this very i'm
portant branch of education. Apparatus is
being placed in the schools wherever possible
for the simple but beneficial exercise of
''chinning the bar" and the running broad
jump, which requires no apparatus, is to be
taken up in the winter. system of averages
and percentages has been arranged, and team
and school contests will follow. Races, which
also do not require apparatus and may be had
on any country road in good weather, putting
the shot and vaulting all seem to be within the
compass of grammar school facilities and will
doubtless be taken up in proper order. The
work has been undertaken in close utilization
with the Public Athletic League, which is
doing splendid service in the city and aims 10
extend its field as fast as possible consistently
with sound progress.
The step is important and means much more
than the mere amusement of few boys and
girls. 1t means that Baltimore county is about
10 20 lts part I'D the WoIlu-Wlue moVemenI
which is 10 make our children and our
children's children healthier, happier and
handsomer, able to work and play better than
their less fortunate ancestors, and able to pass
their physical blessings along in progressive
ratio to countless future generations. tits part
and parcel of the same hygienic and scientific
development which has within two centuries
extended the average life of civilized man by
fifteen years and may yet give him such a
span of usefulness as was enjoyed by the
patriarchs of the Book of Genesis

VOTE FULL REPUBLICAN TICKET

correspondent in another column of The
Union-News this week puts in words a shrewd
suspicion that many entertain in regard to the
proposed DISTINGUISHING amendment, and that
is that while the master machinists of the
Democratic party would like we'll enough to
see the measure ratified, they have not and
never had any real hopes of its success, but
framed it and are using it merely for trading
purposes. This theory is that the Democratic
managers hope Republican illiterates will be
instructed, for fear of possible mistakes in
marking their ballots to vote against the
amendment and "let it go at that" making
only one mark on the ballot Also, it is be-
lieved that Democratic workers and runners
will be instructed to swap votes against the
amendment for votes for one or more Demo-
cratic candidates. In other words, the amend
ment was passed largely for trading purposes.
If it wins, the Democratic machine will be in
trenched in power for all time to come; if it
loses, it can be used for the same purpose agaiL
and again.
Republican voters should bear in mind that
the Democratic cause must be considered des-
perate or such measures would not be adopted.
They should, therefore, steadily decline any
and all offers to give them vote against the
amendment in return for vote for this or
that Democratic candidate resting assured that
there are very many honest Democrats who
will not only repudiate the Acknowledgement
scheme but will show their resentment against
such unfair political practices by voting part
or all of the Republican ticket.
IT Is Just possible that some white men who
were deluded into voting for the Stratus con-
stitutional amendment next Tuesday will
never vote in Maryland again. Better give
this serious thought before marking your
ballot.

By an advertisement printed elsewhere in
The Union-News this week, the Anti-Saloon
League makes its recommendations to the
voters of this county regarding Legislative
candidates. Three of the Republican can
didates = Messrs. Supplee, Shamberger and
Curry-are Endorsed as having made satisfac-
tory replies to the Leagues queries as to
whether they will, if elected, support the gen.
eral Local Option bill. Three Democrats
Messrs. Benson, Coghlan and Snyder-voted
against the bill last time, and their defeat is
urged. No recommendation is made by the
League as to the Republican and Democratic
candidates not mentioned; neither is the
League taking any stand concerning the re-
mainder of the county ticket or the candidates
for Comptroller, all of the latter being said to
be equally satisfactory.

The campaign just closing has been con-
Quoted very quietly in most sections of this
county, yet it does not follow that the voters
are not prepared to vote intelligently upon the
men and the measure presented to them. Cam
paign oratory may have attractions for some,
but we have ever doubted its efficacy as a vote
getter, either through persuasion or instruction,
and in a local campaign it seems especially
useless. The average taxpayer knows just as
much about the needs of the county and its
finances as the man who attempts to instruct
him from the platform, and he is apt to form
his opinion of the candidates from personal
observation and contact and from statements
of facts published from time to time in the
newspapers. Hysterical stump speeches and
curbstone arguments convince but few men,
and succession of these is more likely to con-
fuse the voter than to enlighten him, so that
it may we'll be that the popular verdict to be
rendered next Tuesday will be just and proper.
We have done what we could in the way of
assisting the voters to arrive at conclusion.
The public acts of their public men have been
detailed in our news columns without bias, as
VIC buluhs ouu CuAtOAiohy VIC nave OhACosOASN
to make plain what we consider an unfortunate
condition in that our county is governed prac-
tically by one man and largely for his own
benefit. We have endeavored to show that the
proposed constitutional amendment is vicious
measure, intended to preserve one-man power
in this county and to keep a small clique of
professional office-holders in power in the
State. If the result next Tuesday shows that
the voters accepted our view of the case we
shall be gratied, but if the verdict goes against
us we shall remain serene, remembering that
victor and vanquished must continue to live
together under the same general conditions, and
at the proper time we will be ready to fight the
battle all over again.
