Primary Pledge Is Kept

The primary election pledge of the
last Democratic platform was redeem
ed Tuesday night by the passage by
both houses of the primary election
amendments. In both the House and
Senate the bill was opposed by Repub-
licans, and the vote was a strict party
division, except in the Senate, where
Senator Hammond, of Howard, oppos-
ed the measure.
Shortly before midnight Governor
Crothers signed the bill. This was his
asst official act of Importance.
Repeal of the envelope system was
not in the party platform, and the
amendments as they were passed enact
INTO law all of the specific promises
made by the Democrats. This is the
second pledge which has been kept by
the Democrats since the opening of the
Legislature, the first being economy
and the second primary elections, cred
it being divided between the two ele-
ments Of the party.
By the terms of the act passed, pro-
vision for a recount is made; bribery is
punishable by heavy penalties; the pref
erential system is limited to first and
second choice; Presidential and Con-
gressional primary is ordered for the
first Monday of next May, and less i'm
portant changes are made, including
the provision for registration of affil-
iation coincident with the next primary
election.

Senate Needs More.

With practically no Legislation before
them for consideration the Democratic
Senators Monday night devoted their
attention to the distribution of
patronage AS all employees under the
Harper resolution are to be elected by
the Senate, the Senators are making up
complete order containing the names
of all the employees. The work of get
ting up the order fell in on Senator
Benson. Under agreement reached
last week the Senate will start off with
SO employees and vigorous efforts will be
made to keep it at this number. The
Harper resolution provided for only 43,
but the Senators declare that this
number is insufficient. Each Demo-
cratic Senator is to be allowed two ap-
pointments, while five will be allotted to
the President.
The employees allowed will cost the
State $50, 800 which will be many
thousands under the cost of employees
at the last session.
Senator Tenson offered an order pro-
viding for the appointment of 20 adj
dditional Senate employees besides those
provided in Senator Harper's order,
and this was adopted by a viva voce
vote.

THE TRAINERS PROBLEM.

Those who sis in high places, fs
removed from the sweat and toll OF
the fields" says The Pnlladelph
Farm Journal, have suddenly had
a forewarniag of what may happe
should the hand of the husbandman
be stayed" Men who speak With
the voice of authority; men who in
their boyhood worked upon farms;
men who like James J. Fill, came
up from the furrow to the manage
ment of great business interests
s,und the voice of warning saying
Unless we produce more we shall
not long be able to eat'' Because OF
this we are told the population OF
the cities is facing not acne the
reality of the high cost of living but
many, at least face the fear of not
being able to live al all.
Federal and state governments
and IA lway and steamship lines have
hardened to thiscry of apprehension
and have set about to answer it
| he farmers mail is heavy will
bulle ms and circulars of advice ana
prognosls. Demonstration trains fiji
nither and thither carrying lessons
in successful farming, dairying, Poul-
try raising and horticulture. Free
aud exhaustive lectures are given
whenever these trains halt and farm
ers in throngs HE themselves thither
and eagerly listen to the present
ments made.
All of these aids, however, as cited
by the journal quoted, have to do en-
tirely with the problem of produc-
ton; the burden of this advice per-
tain to how to grow more to the acre
sin order that those who live in the
cities may not starve." The farmer
is confronted by far different
problem. What he wants to know
most OF all is how to get living and
in time secure a competence
from the proceeds of his toll. To be
sure greater yields per acre cheaper
the cost of production; but it go hap
pens that the big crop lowers the
prices of the commodity and only
the consumer is benefited. "There-
FORE" says this exponent OF agricul-
tural interests, "while the farmer well
cons all outside suggestions intend
ed to increase his crops and tighten
his labors, he is more vitality concern
ed with getting his share of the dol
lars"

usel4- Inszs seN1re US if we but
keep our o~nSs unbroken and ad-
here to the teachings of Andrew
Jackson.
The same idea was even more
forcibly expressed by Speaker
Champ Clark, who said:
Our chief reliance for success
is to give to the people such a re-
cord for honest, intelligent,
courageous, constructive states
manship as totconvince the coun-
try beyond the shadow Of doubt
The Prince George's enquirer and southern Maryland advertiser. (Upper Marlborough, Md.) 1882-1925, 1912-01-12

that we are worthy of the con-
tinued and enlarged confidence of
the public. That is the straight
est, plainest, shortest and easiest
road to complete success. 81
The Democrats are standing to-
gether; the party is once again
united, and if it remains true to
Democratic principles the Demo-
Gratis have every reason to believe
that they will sweep the country
next November.

State In Good Shape.

Mr.. Charles H. Stanley, Comptroller
of the Treasury, submitted his annual
report to the Legislature Tuesday. 1t
covers the fiscal year ended September
80, 1911, and is substantially as fol-
| low:
"Total gross receipts of the Treasury
proper during the fiscal year
were So, 7O6, 493. 45, to which must be adj
ded the cash balance on handSeptember
80, 1910, amounting to 1915, Ill, Is, max
ing an aggregate Of SO, 581, 604. 81, or by
far the largest amount ever received into
the Treasury for like period.
"Some elucidation, however, is neces-
sary in order to properly understand
these largely increased receipts. Other
wise you might be misled into suppos-
ing these figures were the actual work
ing cash in the Treasury applicable to
all demands thereon. Such is not the
case, however, for these are certain
revenues distinctly set apart for
specific purposes and must be used for
those only, viz, moneys arising from
the sale of bonds, taxes collected for
public schools, sinking funds, ETC.,
which form very large part of our
receipts"
Taking out various dedicated funds
amounting to S.. O58, 29O. "a leaves bal
ancs of S3,648, 2O321, being an in
crease over the year previous in round
figures of only $63. 900. Hence, it be-
comes apparent that revenues subject
to the ordinary expenses of the govern
ment show only slight increase and
the limit beyond which ap-
cannot be made without
embarrassment to the Treasury.
In a statement the Comptroller shows
n detail all the payments by the State,

THE OPENING GUNS OF THE
CAMPAIGN OF 1912.

CAMPAIGN UF lSlZ.
The Democratic leaders are
men of strong personality and
firm convictions. In the contests
over Pennsylvania and Alabama
in the national committee there
was the clash of steel and the
sparks flew. But they fought
out their differences in committee
and when they assembled around
the board at the Jackson Day
banquet peace prevailed and
fraternity sat in very chair.
William J. Bryan and Woodrow
Wilson, Senator O'Gorman and
the New York regulars, Henry
G. Davis and William R. Hearst
Alton B. Parker and Senator
Atlee Pomerene, of Ohio, Champ
Clark and Joseph w. Folk,
Thomas Taggart and Newlands
of Nevada, were there-every
shade of opinion, every quarter
represented all blended into a
united Democracy, ready to fight
shoulder to shoulder. The party
is no longer torn by dissensions,
no longer divided by factions.
There are some differences and
some conflict is unavoidable.
But it is we'll for Democrats to
fight>out these disputes among
themselves and settle them fna !.
ly at the very outset. Indications
are that the committeeman will
go back to their own States con-
vinced that no internal differ
ences are so serious as to
stand in the way of united
action, ready to enter the cam
palgn with enthusiasm and the
firm conviction that the party
goes into the contest with every
prospect of success.
The addresses at the jackson
Day banquet sounded the key
note OF the campaign. Tariff re-
form must be central to all other
issues, . said Gov. Woodrow Will
