Frederick Boys Shoot Well at
Sea Grit.

Lieutenant Elmer Munshower and
Private Percy Grahe, the two Frederick
members of the Maryland State Rifle
Tear m, which had been shooting at Sea
Grit, New Jersey, for the past two
weeks in the twenty annual Sea
Grit tournament, have left the New
Jersey resort, where they made fine
records. Private Grahe is at his home
in Frederick, and Lieutenant Munshower
is spending several days with friends IN
Baltimore
There were nine States represented by
teams at Sea Girt. Each team, like
Maryland's, was picked from trials
attended by the best marksmen in the
militia force.
Munshower and Grahe particularly dis
tinguiShed themselves in the DRYDEN
Trophy Match, in which they did Won
deriul shooting at the 200 and 1000 yard
marks. The two Frederick men easily
maintained their stand in the leadership
OF the team pairs.
Maryland was in the money in five
events and the share Of the members Of
the team in the prizes was liberal. In
addition to their winnings the members
of the team were also paid for their time
at tiiO ldAISC dllI III AllCll NllllO vi PloN
tice al the State range with the eXcep-
ton of the week when the State matches
were held
Munshower has been a member of the
State team for the past three years. The
position af honor is new one for Grahe,
but he says that he enjoyed it all the
more.
Company A. the local detachment OF
the First Regiment, Maryland National
Guard, was the only company in the
State to be represented by two men on
the State team.
Mnnshower and Grahe are well pleas
ed with their trip and they claim that it
was one of the best years that the Mary
land guardsmen have had at the range.
Private Grahe will go to the State
range some time during the week TO
remain there until the close of the sea-
son. He is serving on duty at the
range.

A Costly Interpre tation.

Schmidt had but recently assumed the
Office Of collector of taxes after victory
on a reform platform which had in view
the collection Of all just taxes. He indus
triously set himself to work reading the
various taxation statutes, and as a result
many citizens were sent bills for taxes of
nature they had never before received.
O'Brien, who lived up on the Heights,
was the recipient of bill which read:
ITO keeping two goats two year, SIC. !"
O'Brien called at the Office of the tax
collector with blood in his eye, and be-
tween gulps of exasperated rage wanted
to know why and by what authority he
should pay tax for keeping goats which
neveS did anybody any harm. etc.
Schmidt, under fire, couldn't explain in
apt language, so he opened the code and
read from section 1892 on rate of taxa
ton:
Paragraph 49, All property abound
ing and abutting on the public highway,
81 per front foot. "-Mack's National
Monthly.

Some of the Reasons For OPP
posing Women Suffrage.

We, American women, and citizens OF
the State of Maryland, protest against
the proposal to impose the obligation OF
suffrage upon the women of this State,
for the following, among other reasons:
because suffrage is to be regarded
not as a privilege to be enjoyed, but as a
duty to be performed.
2-BeCauSe hitherto the women of this
State have enjoyed exemption from this
very burdensome duty, and no adequate
reason has been assigned for depriving
them of that immunity.
3-Because comforting suffrage upon
the women who claim it, would impose
suffrage upon the many women who
neither desire it as privilege, nor regard
it as their duty.
because the need of America is not
an increased quantity, but an improved
quality of the vote, and there is no adj
equate reason to believe that woman's
suffrage by doubling the vote will I'M
prove lite quality.
5-Because the household and not
the individual, is the unit of the State,
and the vast majority of women are now
represented by household suffrage.
6-Because the women not so repre-
sented suffer no practical injustice
which giving the suffrage will remedy.
because equality in character does
not imply similarity in function, and the
duties and life of men and women are
divinely ordered to be different in the
State, as in the home.
S-BeCause the energies of women are
so engrossed by their present duties and
interests. from which men cannot relieve
them and il is better for the community
at large that they devote their energies
to the more efficient performance of
their present work than to divert them
to new fields of labor
Io-Because suffrage logically involves
the holding of public office, and office
holding is inconsistent with the duties
OF most women.-Md. Association. OPP

Psychology at the Ball Game.

The severest test of ones faith in Il c
American spirit of fair play comes at
the ball game. There, in the frantically
expressed opinion of the fans, every man
who ventures slide to second is safe if
he is on our side and out if he is on the
other. Every solid drive to the extreme
right or left is fair, provided that the
motive power. is furnished by one of
our favorite team, and foul if one of the
other team lined it out. The umpire is
either great patriotic leader, notable
for the purity OF his moral standards, or
depraved crook who spends his time
when he is off the field robbing the
baby's bank, every time that he decides
a close plav for or against us.
Il is really curious and interesting
study in psychology this attitude of the
crowd at the ball game, and rather de-
pressing withal. The whole object is to
win. A man who would not cheat or
advocate cheating anywhere else for love
or money will get up and howl by the
minute against what he admits on the
car going home, was perfectly Just de-
cision. In this admission, we conclude,
lies the vindcation of the national spirit
OF fair play.-Ohio State Journal.

Refinement of Distinction.

1t is admitted that the greatest value
of our quadrennial recurring Presidential
contests lies in the accompanying cam
paign of education. People otherwise
obtuse cannot help but learn things Of
importance in the heat of political con-
troversy.
The Colonel explained to US little
while ago, to his own perfect satisfaction.
that the practical politician usually relied
on to deliver the goods is an odous
boss" inspired by mercenary motives
wheu opposed to his third-term candi-
dacy and program. but becomes pa
triot working solely for the pubic
good" when he enisis under the Bull
Moose banner.
Now, we have another refinement Of
distinction, which is equally calculating
and Illuminating. Whenever rich men,
who are interested in a lawless corpora
ton or law defying trust contributes
money to the campaign fund of ''reac-
tionary" party, it is for the sordid purpose
OF getting special favors or valuable
privileges in return, whereas putting the
money into the Progressive" cam
paign fund makes them ''idealists, who
give generously, and without a thought
of personal return. Omaha Bee.
