BALTIMORE, January 1S-The gaunt
specter of the tariff. with all the vcissi-
tudes ii brings from without and within
a political party. stalked boldly through
the Jackson day gathering of the demo-
crafts in this city yesterday. 1t made it
self felt at the mass meeting al the Lyric
in the afternoon and 1t would not down at
the bountiful feast which was spread at
the Fifth Regiment Armory last night.
But the issue was fairly met by all the
speakers. Some frankly acknowledged
that there would be differences of opinion
among the democrats on this subject, as
there had been among the republicans.
Senator Bailey, for instance. while de-
claring that harmony of action must be
the watchword of the democracy If it
maintains the advantage won at the last
election, took direct issue with those
democrats who favor piecemeal revision

Speaker-to-be of the House of Represent

close of the jubilee.

Occasional Words Heard.

Occasionally the words democratic

these were all the audience needed as a
signal for renewed outbursts of hand

The diners by this time had all left
their places and were either visiting with
one another or standing several rows
deep about the speakers table.

POSTMASTER introduced Representative

Col. Roosevelt came in for large share

THE OLD CUMBERLAND ROAD
Il IL Now Proposed to Reconstruct
the Famous Pike, Nearly 800
Miles In Length.

Baltimore, Md.-The old Cumber.
land road is attracting attention to It.
self In the various states through
which 1t passes and there is a grow.
ing appreciation of It's historical value.
Some of the states have undertaken
more or less extensive repairs along
the ancient thoroughfare. Pennsyl.
vania is resurfacing her part of It and
many Of the counties In Ohio and In
diana are doing what they can to
mend the great highway, which in its
day was by far the most important
in this country.
It has even been suggested that the
federal government might be persuad.
ed to cooperate with the states in q
scheme for the reconstruction of the
famous pike all the way from Cumber.
land, Md, to its western terminus at
st. Louis. Nearly 500 miles in length
and following an almost perfectly
straight course from Atlantic tidewa,
ter to the Mississippi river It would
furnish a magnificent pathway for au.
tomobiles.
II this shall be accomplished the
old road will again become a busy
thoroughfare. Taverns will open
their hospitable doors at frequent in
tarvals along its length. A In the an
