DEMOCRATS SHOULD UNDER
STAND.

Hon. A. p. German, Presi-
dent of the Maryland Senate.
is not a gum-shoe politician.
but just the reverse. He speaks
out in meeting whenever the
occasion demands. He keeps a
cool head and keeps his head
on his own shoulders. He is
not the kind of man to be
frightened at the bleating of
the Baltimore News, and we
give him credit for his apparent
indifference to what that paper
says or does. 1t is high time
for the Democrats of Maryland
to understand that the mission
of the Baltimore News is TO
serve the Republican party to
the uttermost, and that its pro-
fession of independence is sim
ply a cloak to cover up its real
purpose. When the Republican
Sheriff of Baltimore turned out
faithful Democratic employees
of that office the News thought
it nothing more than could be
expected. but when Democrats
did likewise to Republicans it
was something AWFUL. The
paper is not only rotten politi-
cally but it is injuring the good
name of Baltimore by making
mountains of mole hills. If
the good Democrats of Balti-
more would have little plain
talk a la Mahool with the News
it would soon realize where it
stood. The Mayor told the
News the other day that he
wanted that paper to under
stand that it could not run him.
Senator German is of the same
determination, and his life and
character are of such nature
that the News cannot find a
vulnerable place to insert their
poison probe.

A HIGH tariff is at he root of
all our meat troubles. Our far
mers and cattle raisers do not
get the benefit of the high
prices, but the Trust does. 1t con-
trolls the prices of meats to the
retailer and makes it so high
that the retailer must charge
what the public considers an
exorbitant price to make any.
thing on his purchases. This
country does not produce
enough meat to supply the de-
mand, although we export a
great deal. The tariff on all
articles of food and clothing
should be eliminated. These
are the things we must have;
everything else is a matter of
trade and traffic.

THE SHORT CUT TO LOWER
COST OF LIVING.

There are two remedies that
would go far to cut down the
cost of living if they were APP
piled. One is to pull down the
tariff shelter which the man
ayers of the Trusts are enabled
to make plundering combina-
tions unhindered by recourse
to outside sources of supply.
The other is to enforce the law
and put the men in Jail who. by
open pillage in defiance Of the
statutes against restraint Of
trade, are making a land of
plenty land Of hunger. We
have the fertile soil; we have
the wheat and corn and beef
and pork and all the wherewith
for the support of life in such
profusion that we cannot con-
sumo it all. There is always a
surplus to sell. But we have
walled ourselves in against &C.
cess of cheaper foreign supply
and put ourselves at the mercy
of protected cormorants.
