Annapolis Knights To Attend Baltimore
Dance.

Annapolis Kaiahls Tie Attend Baltimore
Dance.
Plans have been completed for the
great Charity Ball to be given by the
Knights of Columbus. Of Baltimore
at the Fifth Regiment Armory on
Thursday evening, February l9. In
aid of the fund which the order is
raising 20 erect and maintain a home
and sanatoriun for tubercular "a
tents In the suburbs Of that city.
Cardinal Gibbons and the entire
Catholic clergy, as well as the minis
tiers of the Gospel Of every Christian
denomination, have heartily endorsed
this worldwide fight against "the
dread white plague" in general and
the undertaking Of the knights Of
Columbus, which is national move
ment of the order. Added to this Is
the approval of the entire medical
profession, as well as scientists, hui
manitarians and learned men, the
world over.
Not emily do the knights propose to
erect and maintain this. sanatorium
and home on the suburbs of Balti-
more, a site for which is now being
considered but they intend to prevent
as far as lies in their power the con-
traction of new cases of the disease
by legislation which will do away
with DANCE rous trade and industrial
con litions whereby the workers are
likely to contract the disease. The
Baltimore knights have been engaged
In this good work since 1907 and have
already amassed a considerable sum
toward the fund by means Of enter
tainments, bazars, etc, to which the
amount realized from the ball will be
added.
Many prominent guests will be pres
ent among whom will be United
states Congressman Thomas L. Reilly,
of Connecticut; Eugene $. Kincai q, of
New Jersey and others of equal prom
inence, who are members OF the order
and greatly interested in the good
work. A large delegation of knights
and ladies will go to Baltimore by
special cars from Washington as
will Others from Cumberland, Hagers-
town, Annapolis, Westminster, Fred
erick, Leonardtown and other Mary
/ land towns. where councils of the
order are located

SOME FACTS.

Criticism.

tAbmAluNicat
Mr. Editor The County Engineer,
under the present provisions OF the
county rosd law, Is under the con.
slant threat Of removal from Office
or what is tantamount 10 the same
thing, that is, having biz salary re-
dnced unless he implicitly obeys the
orders of the politicians IN making his
appointments Of sl those persons
who are employed on the county road
work, and, as result Of this eondi-
ton Of affairs IL is q significant fact
that ell road foremen who partici.
pated in the primaries with the Pro-
RressiVe Democrats were turned
down without having any charges
preferred against them for incompe-
tency, inefficiency Or neglect of duty,
and others were appointed 70 ell
their places Of acknowledged inca
pacity. unftness and who are known
in most instances to neglect their
duties by being away from their en-
ployment at least two days in each
week, namely, on Tuesdays at An
napolis and on Saturdays ia Baltimore
these two days Of absence from
work Constitutes one-third Of weeks
work.
What private corporation would
allow a condition such as this is to
eAist for a single day. The apphca-
lion Of the fundamental rules # arith-
metic TO this condition Of affairs
will demonstrate to q certainty where
the bulk of your money spout on
roads is going. Then you farmers
constantly ask why taxes are so high
and why so much money is expended
on roads and that there 10 no substan-
tial improvement in them 20 show
for it. The road law also provides
that there shall be but one foreman
appointed for an election district of
said county. and in order to def 'at
and evade this provision the politi.
clans have devised out a scheme by
which they compel the roal engineer
to appoint persons Of their selection
at a salary Of 50 per day which is
equivalent to more than the salary
allowed under the law to a foreman
per month. Could any one we'll con-
ceive az a more silly and transparent
arrangement than this is for the pro-
fessional politicians to work their
nefarious schemes in behalf of. their
corrupt heuchmen.

ONE MASTER FOR RAILWAYS
INSTEAD OF MANY is RULING OF
THE UNITED STATES SUPREME
COURT IN THE TEXAS CASE.
Has Authority Exceeding That Of the
State Courts in Dealing With
Commerce Laws.

Washington.-A long step toward
placing railroads under zone master
instead Of many was taken by the
United States Supreme court in up
holding the power of the interstate
commerce commission to strike down
state rates that discriminate against
interstate commerce. In substance,
the court said that the Minnesota and
other recent state rate cases in which
the railroads lost might have been de-
cided otherwise had the roads gone to
the commission for relief instead of the
courts.
The decision was announced by JUS
tice Hughes, Justices Pitney and Lur-
ton dissenting. The case arose out
of complaint by Shreveport, La, mer-
chants that the Texas railroad COM
pany had shut them out of all Texas
business by compelling the railroads
to reduce Texas state rates far below
what the interstate commerce commits
sion allowed the railroads running
from Shreveport to Texas cities to
charge.

Niagara Falls, Ont.-Delegates from
the United States and the Huerta
government formally affixed their sig
ing representatives of Argentine, Bra

of the series through which it is
hoped to restore peace in Mexico The
agreement as to the manner of trans
ferring executive power from Huerta
to the new provisional government
stood the acid test of reduction to
writing it provides that:
Provisional Government.
A government is to be constituted
in Mexico of a character to be later
provided, which shall be recognized by
the United States on (date to be fixed)
and which from that day forward shall
exercise public functions until there
shall be inaugurated a constitutional
president. All parties now are con-
centrating on the second part of the
peace plan which relates to the name
of the provisional president and pos
sibly will include his cabinet of four.
AS 10 OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES "SuiaIOI %
The question of Constitutionalist
representation here is still an open
one. The mediators say they will not
officially admit the Carranza dele
gates unless they agree to an arms
tice. 1t is not doubted though that
some way may be found for the Consti-
stitutiopalists to participate in the
peace parleys after they arrive.
Cabinet Members Pleased.
Washington.-The Washington gov
eminent was so optimistic over the
prospects for the success Of the Mexi-
can mediation that cabinet members
fairly radiated jubilation when they
left the white house after conference
with the president.
