Maryland Day.

Maryland Day" was celebrated yes

idea being to select topic of Maryland
history, arrange a suitable program and
then have some speaker make an adj
dress upon a topic for that particular
day.
This is most commendable proceed
ure. 1t emphasizes the prominent feat
ureS of our State history and imparts TO
the young and susceptible mind that
which every Maryland boy and girl ought
to know.
There is no State in the Union more
full of interesting history than Maryland,
both in its Colonial period and since the
Revolut. on. Among the most conspic-
uous figures Of American history are the
men of Maryland, and some of the
most important events i'll the history Of
our country are events in which Mary.
land people have taken prominent
place.
1t is in every respect, therefore, fitting
that our school authorities should set
apart day in each year TO bring some
of these important subjects TO The atten-
ton of our children who in a little while
will be in charge of the affairs of our
State.
The 18th of Match in each year is the
day fixed by the State Board of Educa-
ton for these exercises. But as the 18th
Of March this year comes on Good
Friday, which is a legal holiday, the
24th has been decided upon for the

a fourth relates to the importation and

marian has given a certificate 1t also
makes provision for the slaughter of dis
eased cattle
Another bill directs the labelling of all
tuberculosis or other biological products
used for testing or minimizing of the
animals sold. Ii also provides for the
treatment Of animals and prohibits their
sale and the milk taken from them with
in a reasonable period
Still another prohibits the sale of un-

Republican Disintegr ton.

Woes accumulate as the inside is turned
outside, disclosing actual conditions of
Republican party management in various
places at various times. The Albany dis
closures Of grating have gone SO far, and
involve so deeply party leadership in New
York, that violent methods of reorganiza-
ton have been found necessary. Resort
embarrassing is impossible. Ugly dis
closures have followed the course of the
Ballinger Pinchot investigation at Wash
ington. The breach occasioned within
party lines is daily widening. Wherever
under the ruling Of the Courts in Penn
sylvania the lids are taken off the ballot
boxes there are nearly always frightful
disclosures of fraud. Pittsburg. where
the cup of political iniquity was SO full
that in sheer despair it was at last deemed
necessary to depopulate the town and
populate the penitentiary by the convic-
ton and punishment of some of the more
active and indiscreet of her political brl-
gands, is now newly astounded by the
confession of one OF the convicted rascals
duplicating some sixty others.
Is 1t any wonder that insurgents insurge
under the pressure of such impelling dis
closures? Is not the party in power fall
ing apart because Of its interior rottenness?

Investigating High Cost of
Living.

Vice-President Sherman appointed the
senate committee which will Investigate"
the high cost of living. The members of
this committee are Lodge, of Massachu-
sets; Gallinger, of Vermont; Smoot, of
Utah, McCumber, of South Dakota, re-
publicans; Simmons, of North Carolina
and Clarke Of Arkansas, democrats. Re-
ferring to the vice presidents committee,
the Philadelphia North american, a re-
publican newspaper, says: THE commit
tee is headed by Senator Lodge of Massa-
chusetts, the sum of whose scholarship in
politics lay in his authorship of the decla-
ration that the consumer is a myth.
Aided by Smoot, the Mormon, servile
aide of Aldrich in advocacy of every
ubiquitous currency and tariff proposal,
uncleared of accusations OF close affilia-
tons with the beet end of the sugar trust,
sitting in the senate only because bar
gaining with the Mormon church prevailed
over the protests of the petitions of the
good women of the country, who are the
chief sufferers from the cost of living.
Old DR.. Gallinger, of New Hampshire, a
less notorious duplicate of Cannon type of
the obsolete senatorial representative OF

WASTE AT PORDS.


At Ford's on next Monday night, Fred
eric Thompson will give Baltimore
theatregoers their first opportunity of
witnessing WASTE" the latest dramatic
work of Porter Emerson Browne, whose
"A Fool There Was" has given him
position of unique prominence among
American dramatists. Waste" was given
its initial production at Springfield, Mass,
and if the reports of the critics of that
city, as well as a number of reviewers
from New York, who attended the prem
iere, may be accepted as criterion, then
this young playwright has once more
scored emphatically. Waste" is called
by its author a vital drama of to-day"
1t deals primarily with the extravaganza
and wasted opportunities of a certain
class of women who are so numerous in
certain strata of society. Mr.. Brownies
authorship of "A Fool There Was"
should be sufficient assurance of his abll-
ity to handle dramatic subject with skill
and strength.

Blanche Bates at the Auditorium on Mon
dav night in her latest and great success
1.-THE Fighting Hope" an American
play of today by w. J. Hurlbut. In many
respects this will be one of the most inn
portant theatrical events of the season.
The story of The Fighting Hope" con-
Germs the defalcation of bank cashier
official A trust company has closed its
doors and its cashier, Robert Granger, is
in prison Public sentiment, however,
leans to the belief that Granger is inno-
cent, while the guilt is charged to Burton
Temple, the president. Anna Granger,
wife of the cashier, in her plan to clear her
husband from Jail, enters the employ of
Temple as stenographer. She recognizes
in him the man who has been her youth
full ideal and after month in his employ
feels drawn toward him while Temple
has frankly fallen in love with her. She
learns too that her husband is guilty
The play draws to a close with the escape
of Granger from prison. He goes to
Temples home to find his wife and gain
her protection and she confronts him
with proof of his jnfidelity. Before she
can decide what course to take the police
arrive and the play is brought to an in
tensely dramatic close.

ECISIV DE F E A T o F
SPEAKER CANNON.

Speaker Cannon has been beaten de-
cisively in the House of Representatives
by combination of Democrats and In
surgent Republicans. Backed by the
Republican Regulars, he made a des-
perate effort to avert defeat. But he and
his adherents were fighting against the
inevitable. At the last moment, when
they realized that they were beaten,
they sought to effect a compromise, to
patch up "a gentleman'S agreement"
by which the Speaker would be saved
from humiliation" although shorn of
the powers which he has always exer-
cised SO relentlessly against the lnsurgent
minority of his own party and the Dem
ocratic minority. On the eve of disaster
the Speakers friends urged the fusion
majority to practice virtue which Mr.
Cannon and his following never exem-
pified in the days when they were all
powerful.
Speaker Cannon has declared repeat
edIy that the powers which he exercised
IN the House we're delegated to him by
the majority, that he was only the agent
of the majority, carrying out its man.
date, and that the source from which he
derived his powers could at any time
curtail or revoke those powers. But the
desperate struggle which the Speaker
and his adherents made to obstruct and
tiiwart the will of the majority of the
House suggests that the Speaker was
less concerned about ascertaining and
acqmescing in the wishes OF the majority
than he was in maintaining his over
lordShip in the House of Representa-
tives. If he and his friends feel that the
action of the Democrats and Insurgents
involves his personal humiliation, they
are responsible for it.
But the personal phases of Speaker
Cannon's defeat are the least important
and significant of the issues involved in
the tremendous struggle which culmi-
mated in the House of Representatives
recently The fight was against Cannon
ism-against a system which has become
odious to the American people. Can
nonism stands not only for gag rule in
the Lower House of Congress, for the
maintenance OF a dictatorship in the con-
troll of the House of Representatives,
but it stands for policies which are harm
full to the interests of the American peo-
pie. Logically, the next step after the
Speaker has been deprived of certain
powers which enabled him to stfle de-
bate and TO dictate the course of legisla.
ton is 10 make war upon the policies
for which Cannonism stands The vic
tory will not be complete until the peo-
pie have condemencd Cannonism at the
polls, Just as the fusion majority in the
House has condemned the methods by
which the Speaker long maintained the
mastery over the lower branch of Con.
