was an outrage to change existing laws
in the manner proposed. As matter of
fact, one of the gentlemen who was in
Annapolis at the time mentioned, says,
in an open letter to the Meas, that only
two measures were discussed by these
gentlemen with the Democratic officials,
and these were the Road Commission
and the Liquor License Board. But if
tn 9se measures are good measures and
intended to promote the welfare of
Frederick county, as we are satisfied
some Of them are, let no false and
feigned cry of horror deter our people
from advocating their enactment into
law. This cry of horror is merely an
effort to blind our people to the political
conditions existing in this county under
"a Republican partisan regime.
As is well known every appointment
by this regime Is made with a view of
Strengthening that regime in power.
Yet with all of this scheming without the
aid of the I, 200 negro voters they could
not succeed. The negroes elect a large
part of the county officials and by them
our county is largely controlled.
Other counties have Road Commits
sions that have worked we'll Other
places have Liquor License Boards and
Jury Commissions, too, that give great
satisfaction. Some of our people favor
the extension of the Wilson Ballot Law
to our county and others oppose it.
Without committing ourselves absolutely
to any one Of the measures mentioned,
we think that they should be considered
and adopted or rejected by our own
people, and that no false cry of horror
from the source that it comes should
influence any right thinking white man
in considering any measure which he be-
lieves will benefit our people and pro-
mote the material welfare of our splen-
did county. Let us not be deceived by
this cry of blatant demagogy.

Presidents Isolation.

From the Christian Science Monitor.
After all. maybe it isn't so much fun
to be the president of the United
States. Perhaps there is more quiet,
sociable satisfaction in being non
commissioned officer in the great
army of just common folks. There is
almost of necessity condition sugges-
tive of loneliness attaching to every
eminent, exclusive or unusual position
in life. Whatever in the nature of
wall or fence or social or official bar
rier serves to shut the crowd out tends
to shut the individual in. One can
not enjoy the honor and distinction of
occupying position above the level of
the multitude and at the same time
feel that sense of intimate sociability
that comes of touching elbows with
ones fellow beings. The normal or
binary mortal does not particularly
enjoy being too much in the presence
of his superiors. especially if he is eN
pected to make the attempt of presum=
ing to meet them on level.

Stories About People
Patti Was Independent.

The memoirs of Patti are more full
of anecdotes or royalties and celebri-
ties than those of many British wo-
men who have lately been heralded as
spicy biographists. When she was Is
years old Emperor William reigned in
Germany. When she went to sing be-
fore him for the first time at Hamburg
she was presented to him and he asked
her to join him on the promenade the
next morning when he drank the wat
ers. Next morning she did not appear.
The emperor thought her absence so
remarkable that he sent his equerry to
inquire into it. When the message
was given to Patti the answer came
back to the equerry that the singer was
quite we'll. But you may tell his maj
esty that not for him or any other
king in the world does Patti get up at
Z O'Clock in the morning to see him
drinking water
The emperor took it good naturally
and when she came to berlin to sing
little while before his death the old
emperor tottered into the box to see
her and sent an invitation to her to
visit him after the opera was over
Il went fast enough then, can tell
YOU says Patti. And could hardly
help crying when the kind old man
held out his hand to me, saying, 1T is
good for the queen of song to visit the
king of Germany today. Does she re-
member how she snubbed me once at
Hamburg? '-Cleveland Leader.

Speaker Cannon.

From the Philadelphia Ledger
The Speaker of the House of Repre-
sentatives. though much talked at and
talked about is very seldom heard It's
rarity alone would therefore, have
given particular interest to Mr.. Can
mons little speech on the floor of the
House Monday on the subject of party
responsibility. 1t must be conceded
that at the present stage of political
development government by party is
not only the accepted system, but APP
parently the only system possible.
The country is too vast the represent
atives of the states in congress as
sembled are too numerous and the
business referred to them is too ex-
tensive and various to be separately
considered by each of them. A con-
gress of several hundred individuals,
each acting on his own personal re-
sponsibility. must be hopelessly inef
ficient. 1t would be almost equally
so, as we have seen in some European
chambers if divided into independent
groups or blocks. American as we'll
as English experience has settled up
on the theory that the majority party
shall be held responsible for legisla-
ton, and the experience of the House
has added to this the necessity of Or
ganization and rules of procedure that
shall secure to the majority the control
of the public business. This includes
the division of the deliberative work
among committees, and the necessary
authority of the committees to deter
mine the measures to be presented to
the whole house l. includes also the
authority of the presiding officer. I'M
der the rules. to regulate debate.
Without this business could not pro-
coed.

Many Demands on Uncle Joe.

People all over the country write to
Uncle Joe" Cannon about everything.
Some of them condemn him and some
praise him. but all OF them always
want something for somebody, usually
themselves. But the prize package in
the way of request dropped in on
Uncle Joe" in the form of a perfect
" respectable looking letter yesterday.
Here it is:
Our beaux can not marry we girls
because all foods and clothing is too
high What good is us girls if we do
not have husbands: Why don't you
make congress provide husbands for
us: You will do the country more
good by seeing that all the young peo-
pie are married. If all the young peo-
pie were married we would not need
any congress or president. This
world would then be paradise. We
must have husbands. Get some for
us"
For reasons of the most profound
delicacy the writer's name is omitted

Relation of Newspapers to Morals.

From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
1t was suggested in Pittsburg some
time ago that church people stop read
ing newspapers during Lent. Imme-
diately there arose a hue and cry
whose echo was carried all over the
country. The suggestion fell flat be-
cause even the most prominent clergy
men ridiculed the idea and laughed az
it as bizarre and fantastic There
was something decidedly illogical about
it, too The men who proposed the
denial evidently overlooked the fact
that if a newspaper is not fit to read
during Lent it is not fit to read any
other time That with the big ma
jority of papers such is not the case
was argued by the Rev. Dr. Randall of
New York, in an address before the
Baptist Ministers association in this
city. The doctor went even further
and upheld the daily newspapers as an
aid to morality in the great cities.
