tinction in Appointments.

A special dispatch from Washington.
d. c.. Of recent date, says that President
Wilson has expressed himself as follows
in regard to the race question in regard
to the matter of appointments: II de
sire to be just to every class of citizens
without respect to color ANY appoint
ments brought to my consideration will
receive due attention whether it apply to
white or black"
The President in these words made
public his attitude towards fhe black
race in these words. His statement was
in answer to point blank question as to
where the President stood on the matter of
negro appointments to Office This ques-
ton was put by Representative Henry
George, of New York Representative
George stated that number of colored
constituents had asked him to ascertain
President Wilson's personal attitude to-
wards their race.

schedules. No selnsh interests nave
been heard or their rights protected ct
the expense Of the people.
The bill was framed and passed in
the interest of the people, and in the
interest of the people alone. When
this is said, and it is truthfully said, it
is an end Of all argument against the
Tariff Bill, which was recently signed
by President Wilson.
The people will see that it is honestly
conceived and honestly adopted and
they will appreciate the work that the
Democratic party has done for the
people.
President Wilson has been vigorous
aud active in helping TO pass this Tariff
Bill in obedience to the plain letter of
the Baltimore platform promises. The
President and the party have done ex-
actIy what they promised the people that
they would do, before the national cleo
ton Of 1912. But in doing all this
the President has used no means that
can even be criticised. He made no
promises TO get any votes for the bill,
nor any threats to force the members
Of Congress to vote for it. He is not
only the leader Of the nation. but he Is
also the leader Of hi. party, and a. such
he had tile right, and it was his duty to
do his best to comply with every prom
ise that the Democratic party made to
the people.
This will greatly strengthen his party
and especially in the State Of Maryland.
Blu, the Republican party in Maryland
Is Lopelessly divided aud without a hope
Of ever getting together. For twenty
FIVE yesr, the Republican party in Mary
land aud in the nation has been TO-
gether a. has been said by the cohe-
.iye power Of public plumber, and this
seems 10 he true
The people surely have been plum
dered. which is only too true from the
enormous and unheard Of fortunes that
have been piled up by the special inter-
ests that were favored by the Republican
party in the last twenty years.
The selfish and corrupt policy Of the
Republican party has been exposed, and
the people read it as they read an open
book. It was 50 utterly bad and cor
rupt. that the better class Of Republi
cans throughout the country have left it
and went to the Roosevelt party and
will not under any conditions return to
the flesh pot. Of I'D Republicanismism
again. either in the nation or in this
State. As for this county the better
cIas, Of Republicans had years ago,
repudiated the Republican party, or the
50 called Republican party, and refused
to vote it, tickets, and those Republicans
are now the Progressive party and have
their own ticket in the field, and they
are men enough and are independent
enough to vote for their own ticket, and
if they do this they will divide the Re
publican vote Of this county
In the face Of these facts, it would
seem to be foregone conclusion that
the Democratic party will carry this
State and also this county by large
majority at the election in November
It only remains for the party to organize
and to vote.

Pilots in Charge of the Currency
Bill


These two men, one in the House and
the other in the Senate, bear the same
relation to the Currency bill that Under
wood and Simmons did to the Tariff bill.
Glass has long been known by his few
intmates as man OF great ability. But
he never made speech in the House
when in the minority it would do no good
and when in the majority there were
plenty to make speeches. He made a
campaign in Virginia two years ago for
the Senatorship, but the machine was too
strong for him 10 break. Then, through
the dropping out OF Pujo, Glass became
chairman Of the Currency Committee.
He bided his time. while the critics OF the
Currency bill did their worst, and Dem
ocratic split was freely predicted. Then,
at one bound he leaped into fame, SO far
as his reputation with his Democratic
colleagues is concerned, with his speech

ton.
Owen won his spurs in the Senate in
debate with Senator Aldrich over the
currency measure of that, day, III which
he showed thorough knowledge of sound
financial principles and Of the unsound-
ness of our banking system. When in the
reorganization of the Democratic Senate
the Finance Committee was divided into
two parts. one to consider the tariff and
the other the currency, there was no one
on the Democratic side to whom could
have been entrusted more safely the work
OF currency reform, as chairman OF the
new currency committee, than Owen, of

We admire the progressive spirit of
our City Fathers, but at the same
time they should not lose sight of the
many expenses that are for repairs and
certain work which must be done.
Needless suggestions offered by many of
our citizens should not be entertained,
as our tax rate is rising slowly but
surely. and it will create a hardship for
many to pay it. Economy should APP

For Woman's Name on Ballot


The latest reports from Cumberland,
Md, saws that mandamus proceedings
were instituted recently by the Socialist
party to compel the Board of Election
Supervisors to place the name of Mrs.
Grace Koontz, of Midland, the Socialist
candidate for County Treasurer, on the
official ballot.
1t is understood that Albert A. Doub,
attorney to the board, counseled the
supervisors not to permit the name of
Mrs. Koontz to be printed on the ballot,
alleging that in the event Of her election
she could not qualify. Saul Praeger,
attorney for the Socialists. says the duty
of the board is ministerial and not judic-
ial and they have no other alternative
than to print her name. Mrs Koontz
is an advocate of woman's suffrage.
An open night is being planned during
the next few weeks by the members of

Made Extensive Improvements.

Robert Dent has had extensive i'm
prOvementS made on his home on Second
street this spring and he now has fine
convenient home, one of the finest in
the city. The lot on the corner which
is just south of the residence and which
was somewhat unsightly, an old build
ing having been removed therefrom, has
been nicely graded and will make a nice
lawn and the old board sidewalk on the
south side of the corner lot replaced
with a cement walk in keeping with the
other improvements about the home.
Mr., and Mrs. Dent when sitting out on
the porch evenings, Mr.. D. smoking a
good cigar, can congratulate each other
that they have a fine home and their
daughter, Miss Grace, can join in their
congratulations.

Labor Robbed. Incomes Increased

The country has heard much
from the manufacturers relative to
the necessity of a high protective
tariff in order that they may pay
their employees a living wage for
their labor. The claim has been
deceptive and hypocritical, for
they have taken advantage of the
tariff to enrich themselves and rob
labor and the consumers. In the
recent white slavery vice probe In
Illinois the fact was brought to
light that the International Shoe
company, a S25, 200, 900 corporation
was paying women only 81 per
week for their labor out of which
they had to board and clothe them
selves, and that the International
is only one in thousands in the
country which is taking the same
advantage of labor and those bene-
fitted by such labor claiming to be
good citizens and many of them
protested Christians. 1t is only
necessary to call attention to the
conditions which existed a few
months ago, when the operatives
in the wooden mills in Lawrence,
Mass, struck for an increase of
wages, so that they might have the
necessities of life to say nothing of
the luxuries. Our industrial sys-
tenn has tended to create and foster
a condition approa ching labor
slavery and had those interested in
our great manufacturing enterprises
been less influenced by greed and
more by fairness and justice, there
would not have been so much OBJ
lection to high protective tariff,
but the robbery of labor and con-
sumers has preiudiced the thinking
men of the country against the
policy that enriches the few at the
expense of the many. The cry
that if the tariff is removed, it will
close up the manufacturing indus
tries is simply bosh. All those in
terested In such enter prises will
have to do, is to reduce their in
comes by dividing profits with la
Dor and the people generally.
