SNOW HILL. MD. JULY 5
Not Making Candidates,

1t is rather early yet to be
bringing out candidates for the
coming campaign, and the
weather is entirely too warm to
get heated up now. Let us en-
Joy ourselves at Ocean City,
Public Landing. Red Hills and
other resorts in the county for
a few weeks yet without resort
ing to politics. II is no use to
bring out candidates now just
to have them knocked seven
ways for Sunday. The people
don'twant SO much politics any
way, and it is always better To
do what the people want. The
Messengerisno not getting excited.
1t is not making candidates for
Office. 1t is going slow-very
slow-and it is not going to act
without due consideration for
the best interest of the Demo
cratic party.
The ordinary man knows that
it is invariably THE MAN
SEEKING the office, rather than
the office seeking the man that
brings candidates out. Ii is a
mistaken idea in great many
cases that causes a man to think
because he so badly wants an
office. that the people are like
wise crazy for him to get his
ambition satisfied. Nothing of
the kind
WE are waiting to see what
is best for the party, not what
will load the ship down SO that
there will be grave danger of
swapping it. We have conf
dence in our Captain. He makes
few mistakes. He is not selfish,
and he will do nothing except
that which is best for all The
Captain will be at the helm
when the sailing time comes
and he will steer the Demo-
cratic ship safely through tenn
pestuous seas as he has done
successfully for many years.

Lloyd a Hard Worker.

Victory in the House has
brought hard work and respon-
sibility to the Democratic lead
ers as we'll as honors.
AS an example of the exact
ing duties of a Congressman of
Democratic faith, take the case
of Hon. James I. Lloyd of the
First Missouri district. Mr..
Lloyd is chairman of the Demo
cratic Congressional Committee
and as such assumes general
supervision of the campaign in
every district i'm the United
States. He is also chairman Of
the standing committee on ac-
counts and closely scrntinizes
every item of expenditure in the
lower House. He is also chair
man of the special committee
on organization, or clerical
force, a job with a world Of de-
tail. In addition to all these
and his onerous duties as a Con-
gresham, Mr.. Lloyd delivers
numerous addresses before So
cieties, schools, etc, and is al
ways to be found in his seat

Senator Lee is a very fine gen
tleman and if he is the nominee
of the Democratic party it will
give us pleasure to support him,
but there are other Richmonds
in the field who will be heard
from yet, and it is not wise for
us to settle upon man till we
know who is going TO run. A
number of good men have been
named as fitting candidates for
the party and Senator Lee is of
the number. As are also, Hon.
Joshua w. Miles, Senator Cor
man, Judge Burke and others
to come. The Lee primary cleo
tion law is such a mixed up af-
fair that most of our acquaint-
ances are not very favorably
impressed with it, and as con-
sequence it is no great feather
in his bonnet with us.

One of the rules of the Mes
senger Office is. that every man
who wants 10 mir his views
must have his name signed to
the article. and thus he placed
upon the same footing that we
are placed on. When we have
anything TO say, and it is a
weekly occurrence with us, we
stand out in the open, and every
body knows where TO find the
author of the editorials and
locals in this paper. We do not
allow a Democrat to strike at a
Republican over the mask "Old
Line Republican" or a Repub-
lican to sign himself Jack
sonian Democrat" etc. If Mr..
Brown doesn't like the way Mr..
Jones is doing, everybody shall
know that it is Mr.. Brown
speaking, and he must use re.
spectful language in expressing
himself, as this paper is no mud
puddle.
These thoughts are suggested
by reading that the New York
Legislature has just passed, by
an almost unanimous vote a law
requiring the signing of edi-
torials by the writer's. Senator
Grady says. "the object of the
bill is to give to the public an
opportunity to judge between
the critic and the criticised"
Many newspapers have be-
come degraded by what they
call the impersonal character
of journalism, and correspond
ents take latitude that they
would not dare take ii their ar
ticles were signed for publ
cation.
One of the most contemplate
things to do is to send a person
an anonymous letter. All gen
tlemen spurn such commune
cations and, with contempt,
destroy them at once, and yet
so-called respectable newspa-
pers and magazines have been
allowing their columns to be
used by men SO degraded and
cowardly that tn would steal
the reputation of others by the
use Of anonymous letters sent
under the guise of being for the
public good, when, if the public
knew the writer, it could easily
detect the motive and weigh the
matter by the character of the
writer.
Every newspaper man is re-
sponsible for what goes in his
paper, and it is cowardly for
him to allow one man TO strike
another in the dark.

grown son. whom | had met In the

got talking with tte old lady. She
spoke of several people she knew
here in Cleveland.
Did you ever happen to know
James H. Soandso?" asked her
casually, judging from something she
had said that she did know him.

Funds to Fight tuberculosis.

Based on reports from all parts of
the United States the National Asso-
citation for the Study and Prevention
Of tuberculosis has issued a statement
which shows that in 1910 nearly $751;
100000 was spent in the fight against
tuberculosis, as opposed to $4,000. 900
spent in 1903. The largest item of ex-
-renas- Id 1910 was for treatment in
sanatoria and hospitals, 81, ,376,500 be-
Ing expended for that purpose, or
more than double the amount for 1909.
The antituberculosis associations
spent $760,500, and the tuberculosis
dispensaries sS89,000. The special mu-
nicipal and state expenditures aggre-
gated$1, 100000.
The statement declares that the
most significant fact In the survey of
the years work is the increase in the
percentage of public money spent
While In 1909 53.5 per cent of the
total expenditure was from federal,
state, municipal or county funds, 62.6
per cent came from public appropria-
tons in 1910. The actual amount OF
public money spent in tuberculosis
work this past year was $9,267 900, or
more than double the amount from
this same source in 1909. This fact
indicates, the national association de-
clares, that anti-tuberculosis associa-
tons are gaining ground, by securing
Increased appropriations from public
money.
