ACCORDING TO Gen. Murray Vandiver, chair
man of the State Central Committee, Mary
land Democrats will have to toe the mark ON
the suffrage amendment this year or lose their
party standing. In an interview few days
ago he said: Every Democrat who claims to
be a Democrat will vote for the amendment.
If he says he is a Democrat and votes against
it, he is no Democrat and will not in the future
be regarded as a Democrat, nor will he be en-
titled to any of the honors which it is within
the power of the Democratic party to bestow.
We are pretty tired of working hard and of
winning Democratic victories and then see
coveted honors go to men who have not been
true to their party, who have not aided in win
ming victories for their party. There must be
no backslidiDg by Democrats in this campaign.
We shall neverihave another chance to elimi-
nate the ignorant and shiftless voter from our
electorate if we fail this year. 1t is incumbent
upon all men, irrespective of party, who are
anxious to see the government of this State
and of Baltimore city safely lodged in the
hands of the white men to support this amend
ment. We are going to win. l know we are
going to win, because the amendment will re-
ceive the support of almost every Democrat in
Maryland and the support of thousands of
Republicans" Perhaps General Vandiver is
talking through his hat" When he under
takes to read all the anti. amendment Demo
Gratis out of his party he will have undertaken
big job.
