VIEWS OF NOMINEE UPON
CORPORATION PUNISHMENT

You can do anything you please
with the inside or outside of a corpo-
rations and because a corporation is
given a tremendous advantage in the
conduct of its business and a tremen-
dous convenience, the law can impose
any kind of taxes 1t pleases. IL this
same body of men is given personally
the same conveniences to conduct bust
ness, then it is perfectly fair to Tax
them for the full value of that priv-
lege which they enjoy. SO the corpo-
ration is specially favored in regard tn
its taxation and its very character and
existence.
II was born with certain arrange
ment that passes for the operation OF
the brain, or a good working imita-
ton, but l am not indebted to any
lawmaker for that. Nobody gave me
leave to exercise powers, | guess.
Therefore, it is not fair to tax one
man more than another because. per-
chance, he has greater capacity OF
thought. But it is perfectly fair to
tax people for anything you give them
In the way of property. That is the
reason you can tax them for the privi-
leges which the law affords them, in
order that they may be able to sup
port the other law which enables them
to do those things. That is the princi-
Pile of taxation.
Now. all of this leads to one con-
clusion. 1 have said, and l do not
believe that 1t can be contradicted sue
cessfully, that legislation in recent
years has not met the difficulty. II
you make law about something that
! am concerned in and / do not know
whether that law is going to hit me
personally or not, | will take tbs
chance and do as ] please. But II dc
wrong the minute 1t is discovered
will catch 1t then. So that | am going
to be a very respectable citizen.
The trouble with all legislation In
regard to corporations Is that in re-
spect of our punishments we treai
them as persons, like individuals. and
they are not persons. they are not in
dividuals.
Don't you know that 1t Is true that
everything any corporation does was
originated by some person in particu-
lar, or some body of persons. some
board of directors, or some officer OF
some employee of a corporation? Dc
you suppose that there Is any corpora
tien whose business is so badly handled
that these officers of the corporation
could not tell you who originated any

PROUD TO WORK NOW FOR
FUTURE GENERATIONS.

why should a man try to persuade
his fellow citizens that he Is a fit man
to serve them? 1t is a very immodest
part to take, No man with any sense
of proportion-no man with any sense
of any kind-could stand up and pose
as the saviour of his fellow citizens.
He would go away with a permanent
bad taste in his mouth for having
made such an unfathomable ass of
himself.
But 1t is perfectly worthy and per-
fectly dignified TO stand up and say:
Gentlemen. let us all get together and
try to understand our common inter-
est Because we are not working for
today we are not working for our own
interests-we are all going to pass
away. But think what is involved.
Here are the traditions and the fame
and the prosperity and the purity and
the peace of a great nation involved.
For the time being we are that nation,
but the generation that are behind us
are pointing us forward to the path
and saying, Remember the great tradi-
tions of the American people And all
those unborn children that will consti-
tute the generations that are ahead OF
us will look back to us, either as those
who serve them or as those who be-
trayed them.
"Will any man in such circumstances
think it worthy to stand and not try
to do what is possible In so great a
cause to save country, to purify a
polity. to set up vast reforms which
will increase the happiness of man
kind? God forbid that / should be
either daunted or turned away from a
| great task like that!"

INDICTS TARIFF AS COVER
FOR CORPORATIONS GREED

'Then there are some men who, ad-
NIT, 1t would be great pleasure to in
diet upon some proper occasion. may
name them just for the pleasure of
naming them and then put 1t up to
them whether they will stand trial or
not, but am not going to indict my
fellow citizens, who are conducting

Quoting business. / am not going to
utter inveetives against the modern in
strumentalities of business, but to dis
cuss the improper and unfortunate

That is a long story and there is a
great deal the matter with 1t.
IF you go through the tariff schedule
you will find some nigger in every

most every clause of the act which Is

but that is too long story and too
complicated for one evening,
''The main trouble Is that il has been
an ambush cover, a forest in which
all the men who wanted to get illegiti-
mate profit have been able to get it,
So that the tariff question is not a
question of individual manipulation,
but a question of what has been ex-
emplified In building up the Sugar
Trust, and in building up the American
Tobacco Company; what part the
tariff has had in building up this. that

forded by that legislation.

last of all l am not objecting to the
people getting rich from conducting
business with prudence, but what l am
objecting to is that the government
should give them exceptional advan-
tages which enables them to succeed

PUBLIC SCHOOL NEWS
New Schedule OF Studies For
The Anne Arundel County
Schools
TOLD HOW TO TEACH
A Definite Outline For Preparation OF
Years Course OF Study

In the year 1908 the State Board
of Education, which is charged with
the outlining of the general course
of instruction in the public schools of
Maryland, issued a new course of
study to the various county super
intendents with instructions to pro-
coed to put the same into operation.
This new course of study was the
fruit of much thought and painstak-
ing labor on the part of those who
compiled it, and was in many ways
an ideal course, calculated to pro-
duce excellent results, if carried in
to effect in the spirit contemplated
bv its authors. When placed into
the hands of the teachers, however,
it was found, especially in the
country schools, that it's provisions
would be realized only in part, ow-
ing chiefly to the number of grades
(from one to seven) which had to
be taught by teachers of one-room
schools.
There was an, almost universal
protest from these teachers to the
effect that they could not do the
work for the reasons above named,
and even in the case of the city teach
ers with one grade only it was seen,
after years trial, that the full
scope and bearing of this new course
was not adequately comprehended and
was consequently unrealizable in many
ways.
In the spring of the present year,
therefore, the superintendent and
supervisor were directed by the Board
of School Commissioners to prepare
new schedule of studies for the
county schools. These officials were
given free scope to prepare such a
course of studies as would best suit
the needs of the schools. In the
preparation Of the work, the authors
endeavored to give a more lucid and
definite outline and plans than have
been made heretofore.
The teachers are told just what to
teach, what books to use and what
parts of the same are to be covered
in each half year from the first up to
the eighth grade, inclusive; so that it
will now be possible for the first
time to have uniform examinations in
all the schools as required by law.
The teachers, who, in most cases
heretofore, have been flounderIng
along each in her own way, are de-
lighted to have their work so def
nitely marked out for them that they
need only the ordinary care to keep
within the prescribed limits.
Miss Drury, the supervisor, is now
on the road visiting the schools and
giving the teachers the advantage of
her varied knowledge and experience.
Her enthusiasm for the work and her
| remarkable cleverness, particularly in
primary methods, are meeting with
a hearty and generous response on
the part of the teachers, and it is
hoped and believed that a new era
has begun for the schools of this coun-
ty-an era which will usher in better
methods and hence better results in
the educational system.
The County Superintend ent, de-
tailed at the Office by duties incident
to the opening of the schools, will
shortly start on his tour of inspection
and will devote the next two months
to that work

From these complications it is seen
that deaths, and even injuries, have

Der of fatalities has stirred even the
most ardent lovers of all forms of
sport. Now the question is, what is the
reason of the fatalities, and why have
more deaths occurred in this country
than in England?
In the old world sports of all kinds
have been in vogue for many years,
and every kind of a game which is
played in England is played in some
