DESERVED TRIBUTE.
Mr.. Melvin Writes EugOlistic of At
forney-GensraI Strauss.

Writing TO the Baltimore Sun. under
date Of Dec. 20. Mr.. George i. Melvin
grows eulogistic of the Attorney Cen
eral Strauss as follows:
Sir: The retirement from Official
life this week of Attorney General
Isaac Lobe Straus is viewed with deep
regret by his friends and admirers
throughout the State, and for the time
the loss Of his public services to Mary
land is keenly felt. The people are.
indeed, fortunate that this rerget is
not mixed with misgivings as to the
conduct of the legal department of the
State government, for they entertain
high expectations of the work during
the next four years of such splendid
specimen of the Maryland lawyer as
MIR. Poe, and they have entire conf
dence in his personal professional
qualities.
As a thorough and painstaking law
yer, trained in the most exacting meth
DDS of his profession, Mr.. Straus has
long enjoyed reputation unique among
his brethren of the bar. Known as a
brilliant student, he has united with
facility in the acquisition of rules and
precedents a philosophical faculty of
their application and practical use.
fOf SOtIlG TIME MI. oNIdAS Has dtinliN-
tedly been a leading figure in that
growing body of men, not so old in
years, but ripe in judgment, secure in
attachments. broad in view, to whom,
in the near future, the people of Mary
land and of the other States look to
shape the destinies of our Common
wealths. We have been fortu-
nate in that Mr.. Strauss abilities were
early recognized by the masses of the
people as well as by such discerning
authorities as the late William Pinkney
Whyte and The Sun, and in consequence
he has been enabled, in the General
Assembly. the Democratic National
Convention, the Attorney-General's
office and elsewhere, to demonstrate
his unfolding powers and the possession
of a reserve strength that, whatever
may be the demand upon him. will not
dissapoint the public expectation,
whether in the confines of his own
State or in the broad field of national
craftsmanship.

Constitution Guarded.

1t is deplorable that so many Amer
fcan voters are Indifferent to their no
litical responsibilities even as to the
choice of parties and candidates.
Even at exciting elections it is rare
that more than so per cent of the reg
istered voters go to the polls In off
years, when no great issue stirs the
public mind the ratio of voters often
drops to so, and even to SO per cent
of the registration. 1t is a remarkable
fact that, at the presidential election
in 1904, the total vote was nearly half
a million less than in 1900, in spite of
the increase in the population during
the interval. But if voters are indif-
ferent-rnany of them-to questions of
parties and candidates, they are much
more Indifferent with reference to
proposals of legislation or of constitu-
tional amendments which are submit
ted to them. Rarely do so MANY as
three out of four voters who vote for
candidates at an election record them
selves upon proposed laws or amend
ments submitted to them at the same
time; usually less than one-half of
them do S and sometimes not more
than one-fifth. The adoption of such
proposals is, therefore often the work
OF a minority of the voters and some
times a small minority.
