An Appeal To The People By The
Agricultural Society.

There is nothing more becoming in a
people than patriotism or pride in and love
for their country, State and county. We
OF Montgomery county have just cause for
such pride in and devotion to our home.
Favored in situation. sheltered from storm
and tempest, free from extremes in tenn
perature, with fertile soil and diversified
landscape, truly our lives have fallen to us
in a pleasant place, Neither have the people
failed in their appreciation of natures
bounties nor been Indifferent to the inn
provement of their heritage Intelligent
cultivation has caused the wilderness to
grow fruitful, and the yield of our fields
and orchards has. within few years, more
than doubled. Tasteful and attractive
homes, substantial and commodious barns
have sprung up over the face Of the land,
and prosperity has shown us a smiling face.
In the midst of our rejoicing in the over
How of the horn of plenty, let us get together
with the best of our products that we may
rejoice together and arouse each other to-
larger and more vigorous effort by the
spirit of emulation. Where can this be
done except at the fair of the Agricultural
Society," Not only do we want to show our
neighbors what we have done, but we
want to meet and greet them and enjoy
the pleasant fellowship of kindred spirits.
Come, then, to the fair, bring your best
from field and store, from pasture and from
STALL Let your friends see what you can
raise on your farm or in your garden. Show
your best horses and cattle, sheep and
swine. and challenge the county to beat you.
Let the whole people know what boun-
tiful housewife and notable cook you are
and how you provide for your family.
Nor should the artistic spirit be lacking.
Home is only dwelling place without beau
ty. therefore let your admiring neighbors see
your dainty embroidery. your luscious fruits.
your beautiful flowers, your skillful draw
ings, and all the other adOrnments of your
charming home.
All you good people of Montgomery
county, come out and show the throng on
the fair grounds not only that you know
good things when you see them, but that
you have the good things that you are
proud of them. and that you have the
laudable desire to let other people know
that you have them, use them and enjoy
them.
This fair, beginning on August 80 and
running four days, ought to be the best fair
ever held in the county and if the people
of the county will come and bring their
best for exhibition, il will be one Of the
best in the State. Your officers are trying
hard for great success this year. Every
body help. and let us show the State at
large that we have the best county there
is in the State, and that means the best in
the world. But to do this the people must
be there. for these are the best products
raised in Montgomery. Nor will you lack
entertainment. for, in addition to the ex-
hibition, there will be good racing and lots
of attractions for your enjoyment and
pleasure.
We hope that men, women and children
will come in crowds and we confidently
promise everybody good time

Secretary.

Attorney-General Straus has delivered
to States Attorney Owens. of Baltimore
an opinion upon the subject of free passes
railway companies to public officials under
Section 16 Of the Public Service Commits.
sion law. Mr., Straus says:
Tho section Of the statute to which YOU
E'fefsf provides that no common carrier sub
ject to the provisions of the act shall, di-
rectly or indirectly. issue or give any free
tickets, free pass or free transpOrtion be-
tween points within this State. To this
prohibition the statute proceeds to make
certain specific and enumerated excep-
TONS Among these exceptions, the only
one bearing at all upon the subject to
which you refer. is the following, viz:
ITO the carriage, free or at reduced rates,
OF persons or property for the United States,
State or municipal governments.
Under the general prohibition above re-
ferred to there can be no question that il is
Illegal for common carriers within the pro-
visions of the act. including railroads and
street railways. operating within Baltimore
city and in Maryland, to issue free trans
portation to any public official, whether
Federal, State or municipal. The only
possible limitation upon this general and
sweeping prohibition. so far as public Off
Gals are concerned. must be found in the
exception above quoted"
Mr.. Richie is assistant counsel to the
Public Service Commission, and his opinion
on this subject is contrary to that of Mr..
Straus. The latter referring to Mr.. Ritchie's
view of the subject. says that such con-
struction would make the evasion and null
LITIGATION of the statute easy and inevitable.
Public officials, Mr., Straus declares, may
perform their duties just as well as private
citizens perform theirs without being car
ried free of charge by common carriers,
and there is no relation. except of most
remote and occasional character between
the performance of public duties and free
transportation on railway cars"

BY TAvENNER.
Special Correspondent of The Sentinel.

Washington. D. c., August %. 1910.
The American people will recall that
Senator Henry Cabot Lodges price-investi-
eating committee found that no part OF
the So per cent increase in the cost OF
living in this country in the last ten years
was due to the tariff. Political economists
al over the land were sorely puzzled at
the report.
The phenomenon can now be explained.
The report of the minority of the commit
tee, recently published, shows that the
Republicans made no serious attempt to
ascertain whether the tariff was RESPONSE
bic or not. Listen to this extract from the
minority report
IN examining the witnesses we (the
committee) scarcely touched upon the ter
rltory OF the highly protected commodities"
Lodge. who helped to frame the Payne
Aldrieh bill and takes the position that the
ultimate consumer is a myth, saw to it
that the investigations were confined al
most exclusively to fOodstuffs and cotton,

ton and hog products, Of which commodi-
Ties the United States produces large per

we export in enormous quantities AS to
these articles II may be supposed that,
when freed from the influence of trusts
and monopolies, the tariff should not cut

Who Got the Baby?

Once upon time a crocodile stole a baby and was about to make a dinner of it. The frantic mother begged SC piteously for the child that the croco- die said:
 'Tell me one truth and you shall have your baby again"
 The mother replied, You will not give him back to me-"
 ''Then," said the crocodile, "by OUT agreement shall keep him, for if you have told the truth l am not going to give him back. and if 1t is a lie I have also won."
 But the mother said. If I told you the truth you are bound by your prom ise. and if 1t is not the truth it will not be lie until you have given me my child"
