DEPENDS ON WHAT OK IS GORED

~HE past week has furnished a
fine illustration OF the fact that
u most OF us look at the free
trade VS.. protection controversy pure
ly from the standpoint OF our own
personal interests. President ant
brought forward the terms OF his pro-
posed reciprocity agreement with
Canada and how OF protest went up
from every section OF these U. S,
where the remC.&i OF the protective
tariff would affecs that sections Local
industries. The most significant and
instructive feature OF the whole affair
was the way it unmasked the So
called insurgents or 'progreSSiveS'
of the Middle West. These gentle
men nave been making a heap OF fuss
about the iniquity OF the Payne AID
rich tariff and the way it has bur
dened the people with the increased
cost OF living " ell, the "recipro-
city agreement with Canada would
be supposed to reduce the cost OF liv
ing-that is, it would take the duty
off OF Canadian wheat and dairy pro-
ducts and admit them Tree to this
country. And you would expect,
therefore, to see the insurgents
support such plan Well, you would
if you did not know human nature;
il you did not know how much greater
self-interest is than even political am
bition. The insurgents are against
the Canadian agreement; OF course
they are; it would mean an imme.
date drop in the price OF wheat, beef
cattle and dairy products; and the
constituency o5 the Middle West is
not looking for any such affection.
Are you counting that sort OF trouble,
brother farmer OF Cecil county. ana
the State OF Maryland:
This projected reciprocity agree
ment with Canada is striking, con-
crete example Of how free trade
works when my OK is being gored.
If the Democrats and ''insurgel
were consistent, they would vote for
that agreement. But we hope de-
voutly they will not feel called upon
to be consistent. We don't want to
see the bottom knocked out OF t.
prices OF farm products. Neither do
you; and you ought to have gump-
ton enough to remember that TACT,
when the pc/;ical transformers are
asking you to vote Tor the removal
OF protective duties and the bless
ings @ OF free trade.

WHAT DOES THE GOVERNOR MEAN

r N addressing an audience some
where in Western Maryland
last week, Governor Crothers
took occasion to emphasize the state
ment that the State OF Maryland is
free from debt. we are at loss to
decide whether, in making this state
ment Governor Crothers was speak
ing out OF the fulneSs OF his own
ignorance or out Oh the fullness OF his
contempt Tor the ignorance OF his
hearers When a man manages to
pay off his floating debts by mort
gaging his home, he hardy congratu
lates himself on being free from debt,
unless he is hopeless imbecile as to
financial affairs.
The illustration is entirely apropos.
What does the Governor take the
people OF Maryland for, when he ut
tiers such stuff for their acceptance?
Does he imagine that we are such
children or imbeciles as not to know
that this State is being loaded with
a bonded Indebtedness which promises
to reach a staggering nronortion! 1t
is a BONDED debt, but it is DEBT.
1t is an |. O. U. and one which will
have to be met when it natures, as
the people will find out as the tax
rate mounts higher and higher during
the coming years. THAT TAX
RATE HAS GOT TO MOUNT, Be
CAUSE THAT DEBT HAS GOT
TO BE PAID. The mere fact that
it is in the form OF bond or bonds
makes it none the less a DEBT, and
ior the Governor to talk OF our
being free OF debt shows either
a want o. sincerity or a want OF intel
ligence that is disgusting in a State
Chief Executive.

CUNNINGHAM COAL
 CLAIMS CANCELLED.
Famous Alaskan Land Case De-
 Cided by Secretary Fisher.

The famous Cunningham Alaskan coal land claims. through which it has been alleged that the Morgan-Guggen- helm syndicate had planned to extend their vast interests in Alaska and to control one of the most valuable coal fields in the vArld, has been disallowed by the deparl4ent of the interior.
 Secretary of the Interior Walter L. Fisher having approved the depart ment's decision. as handed down by Fred Dennett. commissioner of the land office. the last door is believed to claimants.
 The Cunningham claims have been in the public eye constantly for more than two years. They brought about the Ballinger-Pinchot investigation by congress and the dismissal from the public service of Chief Forester eff ford Pinchot, Louis R. Glavis, chief of field division in the land office, and several minor officials.
 Both P1nchot and Glavis were dis missed for insubordination incident to their attacks on Secretary Ballinger, whom they claimed was favorably dis posed toward the claims.
 The thirty-three claims involved amounted to an aggregate area of 5,25O acres. The value of the land has been estimated high in the millions. The coal embraced in the claims Is said to be among the finest In the world.
 The Guggenheims had an option on the claims at the time when the fight was begun against their being admit ted to patent. and 1t has been the con tentfon of Pinchot and his supporters that the coal properties comprised in the thirty-three claims were ultimately to have fallen into the hands of the Guggenheim interests. That. of course. Is made impossible by the present de- c1sion.

IN THEIR CORONATION ROBES. archbishop of Canterbury took his seat in front of the coronation chair. The queen passed to the left of the throne and to her chair. Then the king appeared, bowed to the queen as he passed her and knelt in prayer before his chair in front of the throne.
 The king stood while the archbishop read the recognition, or election. be- ginning "sirs, I here present unto you King George. the undoubted king of this realm" etc. The king and queen knelt while the archbishop said the communion service. and the singing of the Creed followed.
 Next came the administration of the oath. The archbishop, standing be- fore the kings chair. asked, 'Sir. is your majesty, willing to take the oath" The king answered, T am willing" and signed the oath.
 After the archbishop's amounting prayer the sword, armillae and orb were delivered to the king, according to ,the program The choir started ''God Save the King" and this was the signal which started bell ringing. gun firing and shouting throughout the ctty's streets.
 The Bible having been presented, the king knelt to receive the benedic- ton. He then walked to the great throne, where the archbishop, Prince of Wales and nobles knelt and paid homage.
 The queens crowning was brief and simple. She left her chair and pro ceeded to the altar steps, where she was quickly crowned by the arch bishop of York. She was then led to the throne beside that in which the king sat. She bowed to him. and both walked to the altar and received the communion.
 The service was completed with the singing of the '"Te Deum."
 Salutes and massed bands playing God Save the King" marked the de parture of their majesties from the abOey. The procession returned to the palace by more circuitous route than that taken in going to the abbey in or der to afford a view to additional hun dred of thousands.

The earliest suggestion of stars as Il device for the American flag is found tn a poem published in the Massachu- setts Spy on March 10. 1774. in which is the line. "The American ensign now sparkles a star" The first instance known of the use of thirteen stripes upon an American banner is found upon a standard presented to the Phil adelphia troop of light horse in 17T5 and which Is now in possession of that troop.
