criminal and venal, and she has twice
by her vote shown that she is opposed to
the elevation of her debauched elector-
ate. Her electorate is a menace to the
whole State.
If Baltimore had shown by electing
delegation to the Legislature such. as
such a great city could and ought to
elect. and by her vote shown that she
wanted to elevate her electorate TO a
standard such as should characterize
such a great city, then it might be wise
aud safe to increase her representation.
There is nothing in the history of the
State to show the need for an increase
o, her representation and there is Moth
ing in what she has done to show that
II would be either safe or wise to give her
au increase.
But even # given, we do not believe
that it will be ratified by the voters of the
State. and we are not at all certain that
a majority Of the intelligent people of
Baltimore would even vote for it. This
question demands the most serious and
honest consideration by the Legislature.

The Governor to Name Some
Appointments This Week
Not to Use Them as
Club

The Governor in a recent interview
said that he had decided to begin to
make his appointments, and he seemed
to be provoked at the suggestions which
has been made that he would use the
appointments that he must make now
for the purpose of securing the passage
of the measures proposed by the Demo-
cratic party. He said that he would
probably have made most of the APP
pointments by this time If the lists had
been before him. He will probably call
for the lists and begin sending them to
the Senate this week.
He said that the measures referred to
are not his measures, and the action OF
the Legislature shall not influence the
appointments in any degree. These
measures, he declared, are the people
measures, demanded by the people and
promised to them by the Democratic
party.
He, of course was deeply interested
in the passage of the legislation prom
sed by his party, and his reliance to
secure its passage was not i'll the inilu-
ence of patronage, but in that of the
people, the conscience of the members
of the Legislature and the merit of the
measures themselves.
II firmly believe" said the Governor
''that the people not only have the right
but also the capacity to decide on their
| own pa rty nominations and in view Of
the pronounced public sentiment upon
the question of direct primaries, any
party or individual that would deny this
| right would be standing on extremely
| dangerous ground.
81 do not regard the important less.
lation now before the Legislature as a
party question merely, and think that
| have the right to call for aid upon both
parties to assist in the passage of the
measures demanded by the people
This is true of the Primary Election Law,
and the same is true Of the Public Util.
tiles Bill, increased representation fol
Baltimore City and pure food, ali Of
which are demanded by and in the in
terest of the people of the State. In my
judgment, all these great measures will
be passed by the Legislature.
The personnel OF the Legislature is
far above the average Ii contains
among its membership many men who
are interested in the passage of good
legislation There is very large mum
Der OF new members without Legislative
experience, and it requires some time
for them to become familiar with the
methods OF Legislation, but | am con.
WINGED that they will give good account
of themselves before the Legislature
adiournS.
There is not, and must not be, any
factional division in the Democratic
party. We were absolutely united in the
last campaign, and will remain so if we
adhere to progressive and honest policies
to meet public demands and expecla
tons. These policies must be good
enough and broad enough to attract 10
us every Democrat OF the State without
regard to personal political ambitions,
and independents as well. We must be
progressive, and as economy is an indis
pensable condition of progress we must
be economical in the expenditure of the
taxpayers money"

DE WOLF HOPPER AT FORD'S.
lie WOll Hopper IS SAID to have the
most interesting song comedy that has
ever fallen to his lot in "A Matinee Idol ,"
which will come to Ford's next week.
While he introduces again the same de-
ightiul and humorous Hopper personality
that the country knows and likes, it gives
the Prince of Comedians all opportunity
TO show that he is able to do other things
than play comic opera kings, for as "a
Matinee Idol" he shows the humorous
eccentrlcities of a heavy tragedlan who
has gone broke" in strange country.
Those, however, who have enjoyed
Hopper in many comic operas, will be
GLAD 10 learn that in this new vehicle for
his interesting talents, he has number
of songs ihat have already proven vastly
popular. Hopper himself says he has
never had a song as good as Let Me
Build Nest for You which he sings
with the fascinating Harriet Burt; "One
and One Make Two which he sings
with large chorus ut really pretty girls,
has also lett behind string OF enthusiastic
whistlers, while other tunelul numbers
are PPM Looking for Husband" sung
by Miss Burt; Little Lady in the Moon, "
sung by Miss Berla Mills; The Dancing
Banshee," by George Hack.
The production is elaborate and taste
full, as are all the productions made by
Daniel V. Arthur, who was manager of
Marie Cahill.
Matinees will be given Wednesday and
Saturday.
