ly to give public assurance of my pur-
poses with regard to appointments
in Baltimore City and the State.
The Primary.
The kind of organization in which
1 believe is one strong enough to
defeat the Republican Party. An
organization w.chin the organization,
or what is called the ring or ma
chine, is 10 longer possible under the
new primary law, ii men will only
do their duty. That is one reason
Why | believe in this primary. | ad-
nit that | am a good bit of an old
lshioned Democrat. / was brought
up with the idea that in a Southern
ate like Maryland the Democratic
party performed a function of high
order and that if it was not perfect
il was entitled to an unusual degree
of tolerance for its imperfections. 1t
is very hard for a Democrat OF my
school to understand how any man,
even though he see faults in his own
party, can entertain the idea of Re-
publican gov eminent in a State i'll
which the solid negro vote constitutes
over 65 per cent of the Republican
vote.
However, as | have better under
stood the point of view of those upon
whom party ties rest lightly, | have
come to recognize the necessity of
some kind Of competition, either COM
petition from without or competition
within. in order to keep party in
sound and healthy condition and pro-
tect it from the chemes to which I'M
interrupted supremacy renders it
liable. While at the outset | share
in a measure the doubt of many in
our party as to the workings of the
primary system, | have become con-
vinced, especially through my obser-
walton of the recent primary that this
system will give us wholesome COM
petition within the party, will eifectu-
ally break up any possibility OF
RING" rule, and will obviate all
necessity of turning the State over
to the Republican party in Maryland
in order to get relief from any eX-
cesses and abuses in the Democratic
party. This law was tried out for
he first time in the recent Guberna-
torial contest. 1t was passed in the
hurry and confusion of the closing
hours of the session and represents
number of compromises that recon-
ciled conflicting views In the nature
cf things it was imperfect and its
imperfections could not be cured
uatil the law had gone through
practical test Under the circum-
stances it seems to me that the recent
primary opens uD TO the Democrats

clans, who are largely dominated and
sustained by Federal patronage.
Considering these facts-and they
are facts-it does not lie in the mouth
of Mr. Goldsborough to lift his hands
in holy horror about bosses and boss
ism. Nor will the people be fooled bv
his attitude. Also | am willing tn.
they should compare the method Of
my nomination and the method of his.
He was nominated in a room behind
closed doors by a few Federal office
holders. | was nominated in the open
field by a majority of the voters OF
my party.
The Republican Platform.
Now | want to say word about the
platform upon which Mr.. Goldsborough
stands | make the charge directly
that it is utterly and completely lack
ing in sincerity, that it's promises are
empty and meaningless. The reason
| say this so emphatically is because
| know and Mr.. Goldsborough knows
and every well-posted man in the State
knows that there is no chance that
either Mr.. Goldsborough or his party
will be put to the test, even if they win.
They will not have the opportunity to
make good their promises, and hence
they are perfectly safe in making
them.
The Republicans themselves have
abandoned all hopes of controlling the
next Legislature. They are not tight
ing for the Legislature and have con-
coded the control If that body to the
Democrats. In six counties on the
Eastern Shore-Dorchester, Wicomtco,
Kent, Worcester, Somerset and Queen
Anne's, the Republicans have nomi-
mated no candidates for either the Sen
ate or the House of Delegates, conced-
ing these to the Democrats. The DEM
ocratic candidates in these counties are
unopposed. In Anne Arundel county
they have nominated only two candi-
dates instead of four candidates for
the Legislature and in the other coun-
ties bob tail tickets have been put up.
There are now nine hold-over Demo
cratic members of the State Senate. BY
not naming candidates in Somerset,
Wicomico, Kent and Queen Anne's the
Republicans increase the Demo- attic
membership in that body to 10, and 1t
thus becomes necessary for the Demo
Gratis to elect but one Senator in order
to have a majority. In the House OF
Delegates, the failure of the Republi'
cans to put legislative tickets in the
field in number of counties insures
a Democratic majority there. This be

Must be a Real Democrat.

The campaign If 1912 will be plain,
unmistakakle clear cut discussion and
decision between two lines of national
policy, involving radical differences
upon fundamental points not alone of
national legislation, but of the attitude
and temperament of the Federal execu-
tive and the Federal judiciary as well.
The national conscience, not less than
the national intelligence. demand a
thorough change, a reversal as well as
revision of the national policy in many
important particulars.

ment Station has worked out plans
Tor several ~up-to-date methods of
sewage disposal. These are de-
signed to suit the needs OF the mod
crate priced country home whose
builder desires convenience and
comfort.
The simplest method Is one much
used In older countries called "dry
closets. Plans are given for a
concrete catch basin system which
ia said to give good results. A
system OF septic tanks is describ-
ed and explained, and directions
r given for building Il. The mat
ter OF final disposal OF the waste
is thoroughly discussed. Different
methods OF returning il to the land

which gives general direction for
installing plumbing in the country

cost of such systems are given.

The Engineering Experiment Sta

the best methods OF disposing of

Perhaps the simplest and most
common method Is by'a vault dug
in tho ground. This has many OBJ
iectionable features, chief among
which ia the possibility OF spread
ing disease. Water from It seep-
Ing through the ground may carry
disease germs to a well or cistern.

DISCUSSED
At A Meeting of Business Men
Held Tuesday
Night.
SEVERAL INTERESTING TALKS
Plans Outlined For Building
Electric Line To Guthrie
And Other Towns.

About 35 leading citizens and
business men met at the office of the
Forbes Mfg. Co. Tuesday night at
the invitation of the promoters of
the MISUNDERSTANDING interurban
line. The proposition was explained
by Mr.. A. H. Eckles. who pointed
out the great benefits that would
accrue from the road and outlined
the PROPOSED plan of organization.
A loo l committee of ten has f.
nancedithe movement so far and
succeeded in interesting Mr.. Walker
and Others who were here recently
to look over the situation. The plan
now is to raise $4,000 or $4,000 to
make an actual survey and employ
solicitors to raise a subscription of
$1,000 to create an equity to be
paid only when the cars are running
and perhaps not then, as the road
may be bonded far enough to build
it. When this step has been taken
the bond buyers would make their
own investigation and fix value of
the bonds based on the earning CO.
pacity of the proposed road If good
business men are IN charge the bonds
will have higher value. 1t is pro-
posed to have good business men in
charge Of this road and to build it on
the best scale. all grades reduced
and equipments first class II is ex.
pected that the bonds will sell at a
discount and soon advance to far
value .benefiting the sUhscrihers who
will get bonds fn- what they have
advanced or paw in. Rights of way
have been secured for five years at
nominal expense. The proposed
route is via the Western Asylum,
Salubria. Pembroke. Trenton m
Guthrie. 81 miles'servinp $4,000 peo-
pie. an average of S74 to the mile.
IL ia expected to promote cream
cries, poultry yards. truck gardens
and small farms along the route. in
creasing the population as the big
farms are cut no. Other roads are
sure to follow in time. bringing in
cheap coal and fostering manufac-
tories. M. C. Forbes said the prop
osition was to benefit the whole COM
munity and asked that it be discuss
ed freely. Geo. Z. Gary said the
promoters were men who evidently
meant business. The Board of Con-
troll of the Asylums was deeply in
terested and Chairman Scott has in
timated that the Board will make
subscription to the preliminary fund. |
In answer to question, Mr.. EckIes
said it was intended to incorporate
for $500. 900 and issue stock to those
who have already paid $1,000, all
subscribers being treated alike. The
additional subscriptions asked are to
carry on the work. pay expenses of
getting franchises. etc. 1t is up to
Hopkinsville to make the project a
success.
Nat Gather said the meeting was
to raise money needed. 1t would not
be wasted. but would be used to
perfect the organization. II
Jno. C. Duffy. W. A. Wilgus.
Frank Rives and others took part in
the discussion. At the conclusion
subscriptions were opened and a
0ood start made towards raising the
