MOVE TO KEEP PARTY To-
GETHER.
Chairman Baughman Proposes to
Make Permanent Headquarters
For Democrats.

The following interesting article ap.
peared in the ''PoSt" on Tuesday morn
ing, May 5th, and we append enough of
it to give an idea of the purpose of the
| Chairman of tine Democratic County
Central Committee. OF course organ-
cation takes i'll all that pertains to
Strengthening the lines of the rank and
file at all seasons and at all times, and
this move to have permanent head
quarters where the chairman and the var
ious organization heads can come in con-
tact with the members of the party from
all parts of the county any day in the
week, summer and winter, and during
dull times in politics, is certainly a good
one and should be encouraged by all
those who take the slightest interest in
party affairs.
1t is we'll known fact that there is
always something doing in politics and
much OF the excellent work done IN the
past by both sides was done when there
was no election or campaign pending.
Registration is the keynote upon which
campaign victory songs have been at
tuned to, and the same holds good at
the present time. With general regis
tration on for this summer, it looks good
to us to see some place provided where
the public can get information on mat
ters political at all times and where most
effective work can be done. The ques-
ton Of economy comes in for its share
in the sugges tive motive, but where a
place is centrally located and with mod
crate rent can be secured it will pay for
itself over and over again.
1t goes without saying that those in
charge will look after the affairs of the
different sections throughout the county
with painstaking care and with an idea
of future good. 1t is also hoped by the
heads of the organization that the mem
bers OF the party everywhere will take
advantage of the opportunity afforded
them by permanent headquarters to visit
them as often as they can and help in the
good work that is outlined for all loyal
Democrats this fall and as long as they
live.
We hereby announce by authority
that the Democratic organization of
Frederick county has secured the second
story of the Williamson Building, next
to and south OF the Pythian Castle, and
opposite THE CITIZEN Office, on Court
street. These rooms will be fixed up,
and by reason Of their convenience and
central location should be the center of
Democratic political actlvity.-ED.]
With view Of perfecting the organ
ization OF the Democratic party OF Fred
eriLk county, and to weld it into pow
erful party that will make defeat at the
coming elections almost impossible,
Colonel E. Austin Baughman, the Chair
man of the Frederick County Central
Committee of the Democratic party, is

ISAAC LOBE STRAUS OPENS
HIS CAMPAIGN FOR U. S.
SENATOR.

Isaac Lobe Straus opened his cam
pagn for the Democratic nomination for
United States Senator on Monday night,
May 4th, IN Cumberland, with an appel
for the votes of the workingmen. He de.
fled anyone to point out one single act in
his whole career that was not in the in
terest of the masses.
The meeting was held in the Postofice
plaza and the speeches were made from
the City Hall steps. The Boys Band
played and there was a good sized
crowd.
Mayor Thomas w. Koon opened the
meeting and then adjourned to the
Council Chamber to preside over the
weekly meeting of the council. He sur
rendered the Craftsmanship to De Warren
H. Reynolds. who introduced Mr..
Straus and the speakers who followed
him.
The first address was bv State Senator
William J. Ogden, of Baltimore, who
extolled the work of the Democratic Ma
tional Administration and praised the
record of Mr.. Straus. Mr.. Straus fol-
lowed He too, spoke In praise of the
work of Wilson and BRYAN, but devoted
the most of his talk to his own record in
writing planks IN the Democratic State
platforms and drafting bills in behalf of
the masses Of the people
In the audience were a number Of or
ganization Democrats, including Post
master Frank B. Beall, Jasper N. Will
son and James c. Shrver member of
the State Central Committee.
James R. Neal of Baltimore, the Sec
retary of the State Federation ofLabor,
spoke euiogistically OF the work of Mr.
Straus in behalf of labor Mr. N E.
Reese. OF Baltimore, the chairman OF the
Legislative Board of the Brotherhood of
Railway Tranmen and vice chairman OF
the joint committee of the brotherhood
to promote the candidacy of Mr. Straus,
was the last speaker.

College Farmers.

From the Department of Agriculture
there has been issued bulletin giving
the results OF the, recent Investigations in
three representative areas of Indiana,
Illinois and Iowa. with respect to the ef-
fects of education upon the income of the
farmers. OF the farms examined IT per
cent. of the owners or tenants had only
a district school education IS per cent.
had high school training and one in
every IS was college graduate. Those
with high school education made about
double the income of those that had been
limited to the country schools, but it was
also found that those with the higher edu-
cation had the further advantages Of
much larger farms and more capital to
work with.
The tenant farmers were found to be
better educated as class than the farm
owners. The investigation also tends
to establish the fact that those who starr
the earliest to farm makes the most
profits
This leaves it doubtful whether the
farm boy starting early might not make
an equal income with the college-bred
farmer if he had equal capital and equal
land. In defense of the college agri-
culturist, however, Dean Hunt, of the
University of California, recently pointed
out that he often has little opportunity to
show the worth of his training. He can
not enter upon his fathers farm, for that
is occupied, and he has to become a ten
ant or the employe of rich farmer. He
starts, therefore, often with less money
than the farm bred boy, and his success
is more IN his education than in his
wealth.

fcult because there is no power in Mex.
leo to speak for all of the people. 1t
seems to us that the only possibility is
for this nation, and England and France to
form triumvirate to settle the troubles
of Mexico. This seems to be the most
probable solution of the question.
These three nations have more invest
ments there and could have no object
but the good of Mexico in] establishing
a constitutional government and the
reign of law and order for the people.
This seems to be the only hope to end
the spirit of anarchy which now pre-
walls in that oppressed country.

MEXICO IN A STATE OF AN
ARCHY AND OUR DUTY
TO MEXICO.

1t Is now clearly evident that Mexico
is in a state Of anarchy. That un
happy country is infested with various
bands Of its people at war with each
other, and not one of them can speak
for the nation at large, and if one or two
Of any Of the bands engaged in war
We're to agree to peace or mediation,
they could not speak for the others or
for the nation. As the condition of that
nation now exists no peace or mediation
seems possible.
Yet there is constant clamor and ag-
itation going on in this country as to
whether President Wilson has not made
mistake in his course in regard to
Mexico. They claim that the admins
tration was bound to recognize the Die
tator Huerta as the de facto government.
The President and his cabinet made
no mistake in refusing to recognize
Huerta. In the first place, he has
never been in control of the entire
government. When through his manip-
ulation Madero was foully murdered,
Huerta was only in control of one part
of the people, while the balance of the
people were opposed to him, and the
part of the people in opposition to his
control embraced the better elements of
the people of Mexico.
Our recognition of Huerta then
would have only made it more difficult
for the people to have gotten rid of the
tyrant and the dictator, without better
ing in any degree their condition. Be.
sides this civilized and christian nation
could not recognize man who had sue
ceeded to power by treacherous muir
der, as is admitted now by all.
The portion of the press opposed to
President Wilson, now claim that it is
our duty to 90 into Mexico and establish
law and order and constitutional gov
ernment.
We submit that no such duty rests
upon this country. The Monroe Doc
trine, neither directly or indirectly, i'm
poses any such duty or obligation upon
this nation. The Monroe Doctrine only
imposes upon us the duty to see that no
foreign nation shall acquire any one of
the Central or South American nations
and set up government that may be.
come menace and danger to this gov
ernment, and that is the extent of that
doctrine. And suffice it is to say that
that doctrine never will be extended.
1t is our duty to protect our citizens
in Mexico and their lives and property,
and not only in Mexico, but in every
other country on the globe, and we do
it. We can only protect them and their
property and see that no injustice is
done them by any foreign nation This
means that when our people so into
foreign country and acquire property
they are subject to the laws of that ma
ton, and we are bound to see that they
have fair trial and the full benefit of
the laws. This is all that we have done
in Mexico.
We took Vera Cruz because the HUI
erta forces violated the rights of our
citizens and disregarded our national au-
thority, and we only intended to make
Mexico respect both, which we would
have done in the case of any other ma
tion President Wilson was clear and
distinct in his declaration that we made
no war against the Mexican people, and
he was clearly right.

More Serious Problem.

From all parts of the world comes the
complaint of the dearth of domestic serv-
ants New Zealand in particular is suf-
fering from such shortage. Syndicates
have been formed in various centers for
securing domestic servants from Great
Britain. Emigrant ships on their arrival
in New Zealand ports are besieged by
employers, some of whom go out to meet
the girls IN tugs, in order to engage them
before they land. And in some cases
they are engaged by wireless before the
ships reach port. Factories and shops
are today filled with girls who in former
days would have entered domestic serv-
ice, and it is not surprising that the sup
ply of domestic servants is not equal to
the demand. Work IN private families is
not regarded, also, as favorably as work
in hotels. where there is greater indepen-
dence and where, owing to the Tipping"
SYSTEM the employees can add very sub
stantially 10 their wages. The great
trouble is that the EMPLOYERS of domestic
servants are slngularly behind the times.
They cannot see the requirements of the
working classes are altered, and that they
should adapt themselves to the new con-
ditions. In no other employment is con-
slant service exacted to the extent that it
is expected in domestic service. Servants
are moving with the times, while their
employers lag behind. A writer in the
London Guardian proposes that round
table conference should be called to draw
up rules to govern the relation between
employer and employed in domestic serv-
ice in the same way that rules are drawn
up to govern the conditions of employ
ment in other rcareers.-From The Church
