A Spacious Pretext

Upon the pretext that it is desir-
able to divorce the public schools from
politics, bill has been introduced in
the Senate to take from Governor
Goldsborough the authority to appoint
school commissioners. The bill was
introduced by President Price, but was
framed by what is called the German
Straus committee. The bill provides
that the State Board of Education, on
and after the first Monday in May,
1914, shall consist of five persons,
namely, the Governor and the State
Superintendent of Public Education,
to serve ex-officio; Southey King
White, of Wicomico county, to serve
for two years; DIR. Josias S. Bowen, of
Baltimore county. to serve four years,
and Clayton Purnell, of Frostburg, AL
legany county. to serve six years, and
that they shall name the county school
boards.
One of the other provisions of the
bill is that not more than one-half the
members of the school board shall be
affiliated with any one party. That, on
its face, has meritorious appearance,
but has some patent drawbacks. There
are, in Maryland at this time, at least
four officially recognized political par
ties-the Prohibition. the Progressive,
the Republican and the Democratic. 1t
would be possible, therefore, to con-
stitute the boards, with the appoint
ing power in the hands of the Demo-
Gratis, without a Republican on them,
and with members from the other min
ority parties more friendly to the De-
mocrats than to the Republicans. That
IF ri hin thnrn
fore, very fimsy one. And that is
made more apparent by the fact that
the bill constitutes the State Board of
Education, to which the appointing
power is given, of a four-tifths Demo-
cratic majority, The purpose of the
bill is clear. 1t is simply intended to
take the appointing power from Gov
ernor Goldshorough, because he is a
Republican. That is, after all, the sum
and substance Of the whole project.
No attempt was ever made while
the Democrats had the power of APP
pointment, to make the school boards
bipartisan. On the contrary the law
was twice amended for the purpose of
preventing the Republicans from Sc
curing a majority in the board of a
single county. The Democrats who
now pretend TO desire the elimination
of politics from the public schools,
never had any such desire when their
party was in control, but held on to
that control of the schools with a most
tenacious grip. Their insincerity in
the present movement cannot there
fore, be matter of the least doubt
and the very method by which they
propose to supersede the authority of

SEVERE BRONCHIAL COUGH
Doctors Feared Lung Trouble,
Restored to Health by Vinol.

The medical profession does not be.
lieve that lung troubles are inherited,
but person may inherit weakness
or tendency to them.
Mrs. Kate Hickman, Springfield,
Ohio, says: "a few years ago was
in a very bad rundown condition, and
the physician told me l had consump-
ton. 1 tried another physician, and
he told me had ulcers on my right
lung. l quit the physicians and
started on Who'll Today am
perfectly healthy, and that Is why I
recommend Who'll"
Vinol soothes and heals the inf1am-
ed surfaces and allays the cough.
Vinol creates an appetite, strengthens
the digestive organs and gives the
patient strength to throw off in
cipient pulmonary diseases.
Try bottle of Vinol with the I'M
derstanding that your money will be
returned if it does not help you.

Tomorrow a last effort will be

they are Indifferent as to the re

MAKE
PEACE OFFER
To FRANCE
SOCIALISTS PORTRAY THAT EN-
GLAND is ENEMY OF FRANCE
AND SHOULD BE LEFT TO
FIGHT HER OWN BATTLES.

Bordeaux, Oct 31.-A dispatch tC
the London Standard says:
German peace proposals have
been conveyed to France by mem
bers of the German socialist party
The German government invited the
German socialists to act as inter
mediaries and the latter accepted the
task. They conveyed the message OF
their government to certain social
lists in Holland, who, in their turn
transmitted the offer to members OF
the French socialist party,
"The German socialists tried to
convince their French comrades that
Germany had no quarrel with France.
They portrayed England as the real
enemy of France and argued that
England had melted France and Rus
sia and Belgium to go to war against
Germany in order that those three
countries should fight England's bat
ties against her mortal enemy, Ger
many
The negotiations were commits
stoned to influence French public
opinion through the French socialists
to believe that France would profit
by leaving England in the lurch at
this stage of the war and concluding
a separate peace with Germany.
The French socialists emphatical-
ly refused to support this peace
movement In no circle is the feel
ing against Germany more bitter
than among the leaders of extreme
French socialism. French socialists
are fully convinced that the allies
are fighting in the cause of free
dom and are whole hearted support
ers of the war But even now BerL
lin can not realize that France is
not open to the bargain offered, and
there are good reasons to believe
that more efforts will be made to
conclude peace with France alone"
