FIGHT FOR
MARYLAND

BALTIMORE. May 4.-This, the last
day of the Maryland primary election
campaign, found President Taft anu
Colonel Roosevelt on the move with
speaking programs that will occupy them
until bedtime and cover nearly every part
OF the State. The Democrats have
planned a series OF rallies. but Speaker
Champ Clark, Governor Woodrow Wilson
and Governor Judson A. Harmon, the
presidential preference candidates. have
made their last personal appeals to the
Democratic voters.
II is said that while the President is
busy today fitting with Colonel Roose
welt In this State his managers are plan
ming to get rid of him AS a candidate by
causing a deadlock at the Chicago con
vention
Naturally, they are not going to tell
him their plans as long as he can still
use his office TO draw campaign crowds
But 1t is more than likely that the $40
delegates still TO be chosen to the con.
vention Will be so distributed as to
make Mr.. Taft's nomination impossible.
The only thing that fogs the situation
Is the lack of a man TO take Taft's place
In the race for the nomination That no
one has been prominently mentioned Is
nOi hut " hHy on Ine part
of the senatorial bosses. II Is because
the Republican party has no man In pub
lie life who measures up TO the job.
Somebody must be found between now
and June 49, 19 or 20 In all likelihood
somebody Will.
Maryland has awakened to the impor.
tance of Mondays primaries, and today
the whole State Is talking of little but
politics. The new primary law gives
voters the opportunity to bind the dele
gates to the State convention to act
on presidential candidate as their con-
stituents instruct them, and a minority
OF delegates to the State convention act
ing as thus instructed choose n delega-
tion to the national convention, which
must vote as unit for the presidential
nomination candidate thus made the pop
ular choice.
Since delegates TO the State convention
are elected by counties. except in Balti-
more, where the legislative district IL
the unit, the presidential preference
vote will be significant only as It gives
maiorlties In the various counties and
legislative districts. In other words the
total preference vote of the State will
not necessarily decide which candidate
will get the Maryland delegation to the
national conventions.
Colonel Roosevelt spent the night here
after his concluding speech yesterday
He left at 1855 o'clock this morning for
tour of the western part of the State.

StereOtyperS
Join Strikers

CHICAGO, May 4.-The strike of the
pressmen on the principal Chicago daily
papers took on a more serious aspect
early today. when the stereotypers in
all the offices affected left their work
in sympathy with the original strikers.
This made the third union to join In the
strike, the wagon drivers having previ-
ously quit work.
The waik-out of the stereotypers COM
PEELED the publishers to condense the
morning pabers. Only one edition was
issued. and this without any advertise
ments' 1t was expected that the after
noon papers would act similarly and
issue only one edition in condensed
form.
For the first time since the strike be-
gan shooting was resorted to today.
Several shots were fred In the street
m front of one of the newspaper build
ings at Madison and Dearborn streets.
No one was injured, but the police made
several arrests. Newspaper wagons, un-
der the guard of policemen. were being
loaded at the time Of the shooting.

URGES LESS
SEVERELAWS

MINNEAPOLIS. Mimi, May Am EN-
phatic demand that the Methodist Bpis-
copal Church abandon its santi-amnse-
ment rules was made In resolutions Of
fered at the general conference today by
benjamin T. Edsall, of Newark, n. j.
The resolution read:
That section 260 of the discipline be
amended by striking therefrom the words
dancing, playing at games Of chance, at
tending theatres horse races, circuses,
dancing parties or patronizlng dancing
schools, or taking such other amuse-
ments as are obviously of misleading or
questionable moral tendency.
To show that the church would not
stand In the position of favoring these
forms of amusement, the resolution re-
iterated from the church's special ad-
vices the following:
I'VE lift UP n solemn note of warning
and entreaty particularly against thea
tre-going, dancing and such games of
chance as are frequently associated with
gambling, all of which have been found
to be antagonistic to vital piety, pro
motive of worldliness, and especially
perncious to youth"
But 1t declared compulsory good be-
haylor was not the essence of religion
and the present rule was ineffective.
The resolution was referred to a COM
mittee.
Marvin Campbell. of South Bend, Ind,
offered a resolution asking that the
twenty-nine editors and publishers of
church publications be investigated by a
special committee as to their qualifica-
tions before their selection, and that
their election be not left to a vote OF
the conference, 80 per cent. of whose
members we're ignorant as to whether
the candidates were qualified

The family did not realize that the
Watchdog which had been chained for
the first time in the laundry, was giving
an alarm, and the thieves nonchalantly
continued their labors when they found
no one was aroused to disturb them. They
left behind two dozen table knives that
were plated ware. The thieves were evil
