thesvery best which is to happen. But
is there anybody. at this point of the
legislative game, who believes that
anything properly classed as "best" is
likely to be turned out as the result of
the labors of the 1910 General Assem-
bly,? But on the other hand, no dis
eliminating observer will be likely to
dispute that large amount of very
bad, if not of the worst" in the way
of legislation has been introduced and
is being pushed.
There is an unusually large amount
of iniquitous political legislation now
pending, and as the time limit for the
introduction of bills does not expire I'M
til Saturday, it is within the possibili-
ties that additional measures of this
class may yet be introduced and rushed
through. Whatever else may die in
the committee rooms or be lost in the
shuttle. it may be accepted as certain
that no bill which The bosses of the
Democratic machine need in their bust
ness, no matter how late it may be in
troduced, will fall by the wayside. The
Legislative expense fund deficit bill is
expected to make its appearance this
week. 1t is likely that S75, 900 more
will be added to the original $3.50, 900 to
meet the padded payroll costs. The
city charter bill, the amendments to
the oyster law, the bill providing for
state care of INDECENT insane and other
meritorious measures are in doubt and
uncertain, but the spoils bills and the
election Juggling bills are not involved
in the least uncertainty as to their fate
at the end.

STRAUS ASKS FOR TIME
So naryland-West Virginia Dispute
Goes Over Again.

WASHINGTON, March 21.-Attorney-
General Isaac Lobe Straus, of Mary
land, and Mr.. George E. Price, of West
Virginia, met here today by appointment
to take up the question of settling the
decree and designate the three commits
sioners who are to run the boundary be-
tween the respective States in accord
ance with the recent decision of the
United States Supreme Court.
Attorney Straus asked for an extern
sion of time, stating that since the Su-
preme Court had handed down it's opin-
ion on February 81 last his own time
had been so fully occupied in connection
with the present session of the Mary
land Legislature that he was not ready
to join today in the settlement of the
decree and the appointment of commits
sioners. Attorney Price, representing
the State of West Virginia, as a matter
of courtesy between counsel, said he
was perfectly willing to have the mat
ter extended, and the result was the
signing of stipulation in which it was
agreed to extend until May l next the
time in which the counsel for the re-
spective States are to present to the
Supreme Court the decree and nominate
their commissioners

SMALL MATTER OF FEW
HUNDRED MILLIONS
Baltimore Land To This Amount;
Claimed BY Price Descendants.

l. E. Price, of Terra Alta, son of the
Rev. J. c. Price, pastor of the Albright
M. +. church, Oakland District, has
Just received notice that within few
weeks suit will be filed in the Mary
land courts by the heirs of Mordecai
Price, who was the grandfather of the
Rev. Mr.. Price, against the city of Bal
timore, and host of individuals in Bal
timore, to recover about four hundred
million dollars. If the heirs succeed in
establishing their claims, the Price
family will have more money than any
Dody besides Rockefeller and a few
others.
Mordecai Price was a man of vast i'm
portance. in his day. He came over
from England with Lord Baltimore, and
wasn't backward in picking out what
he thought looked good to him in the
way of real estate. Some time ago a
Cleveland, Ohio, lawyer, Wellington H.
Smith, discovered in an old Virginia
mansion of the Colonial period long
lost document which was the one direct
connecting link between the Mordecai
Price of Lord Baltimore time, and the
Price heirs of the present. That the
property IN question never legally
passed out of Mordecai trice's hands
by deed is said to be certain, and the
heirs have to fight chiefly the great
elapse of time.
One of the evidences to be produced
in the case is huge solid gold watch of
the seventeenth century mechanical
type and containing engravings consist
ing of the name (Mordecal Price, to-
gether with the date of his sailing from
England to America with Lord Balti-

A SCHEME TO MAKE RASCALS
ELECTION OFFICERS.

The most cynical and the most SIMS
ter development at Annapolis at this
session is the appearance of the same
old disposition to tamper with and
emasculate the election law Year by
year the Democratic leaders have at
tackled one safeguard after another
which the people succeeded in placing
about the suffrage after the sweeping
victory of 1895. At the present rate it
will not be long before it will be per-
fectly simple matter to make our cleo
tons once more a travesty upon a free
ballot.
The latest assault is by means of the
bill of Senator German, which has
already passed the Senate and is now
before the House. This bill proposes
to make mandatory the selection of
officers of election where heretofore
the rights of the public have been pro-
tected by the veto power which one
Supervisor of Elections has upon the
nominations of another. We have seen
no respectable argument advanced for
making this change. The present plan
has worked satisfactorily. Under it
the voters could feel that some of the
rogues and rascals who used to disgrace
elections in this State could be kept out
of the booths. Publication Of their
names, if nothing else, would insure OBJ
lection against their selection. This plan
is fair to both sides All that is neces-
sary is to name men whose records are
respectable. But now, without warn
ing, there hobs up bill which compels
the Supervisors of Elections to select
officers of election from list of three
names which must be handed in for
each place

Lifting fun many a broken vine,
O, what a labor Of love is thine.
Love is thy watchword. and still shall be.
Love, on thy banner, inscribed l see,
Love is the keynote to every song,
How Ike a river it flows along;
Brother. the words from thy lips that fall
Tenderly echo thy Savior's call,
Thou art inspired by a voice divine
o, what a labor for souls is thine.
YOnder thy home and thy mansion fair,
YOnder the crown thou shalt win and wear.
Beautiful stars in that crown will shine,

Waiting for thee on the Eden shore,
Meeting where trials and storms shall cease.

BAL TlMORE & OHIO IMPROVEMENT
Extensive Freight Terminal To Be
Erected at Chicago Junction, o.

The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad has
awarded a contract for the construction
of an extensive freight terminal at
Chicago Junction, Ohio, on the main
line of the Chicago division, which will
be the largest terminal west of Bruins
wick, Md, and the second in size on the
system. The improvement will cost in
round figures $500, 600 and will include
gravity, or hump" classification
ward having capacity of 1900 cars,
with necessary yard buildings, scales.
etc, and a reservoir of 200, 900, 900
gallons capacity, perhaps the larg st
ever built for railroad use.
The new freight terminal will contain
receiving and classification yards for
eastbound and westbound traffic, the
capacity of the former being 1900 cars
and the latter 1900 cars.
Chicago junction being the terminus
of the Chicago and New Castle divisions
and situated at the intersection of the
Newark division lake line to Sandusky,
is the most important locomotive termi-
nal on the Baltimore and Ohio, and for
this reason the reservoir VIII be con-
structed sufficiently large to supply
water for the engines of all three divi-
siOns.
1t is estimated that 50, 600 cubic yards
of excavation and 4. 500 cubic yards of
concrete will be necessary in construct
ing the terminal. The contract has
been awarded to the Robert Grace
Company, of Cleveland. Work will be
commenced at once and completed as
early as possible.

WHAT COMPETITION is.

The Philadelphia attorney who made
the closing argument for the Standard
Oil Company before the United States
Supreme Courts says that competition
is what General Sherman said war was
what war still is, if the general was
right, for war hasn't changed for the
better since Sherman's day. Mr.. John
son didn't say it right out loud, that
way He circumlocuted thus: us
there a kind of soft competition,
Pickwickian competition, kind of glove
variety, where they just compete so
nicely that it won't hurt General Sher-
man used a word in describing what
war is; won't use the word in your
honors' presence, but that is what COM
petition is. " The inference is obvious.
If competition is hell, then the lack of
competition-as exempllfied so wonder
fully by the activities of the Standard
Oil Company-must logically be the
antithesls of that interesting but Who'll
ly undesirable state. Inasmuch as
there is very general belief to the eff
feet that the gates of heaven cannot be
commanded by any cash price, however,
great, it will bring great surprise to
many people to learn that heaven on
earth can be created by anyone with
sufficient cash and -bloodedness to
enable him to eliminate competition.
