THE wing of the democratic party
which is now in the saddle in Washing
ton never did believe in business. either
big or little. 1t was raised to believe
that the southern planter and aristocrat
constituted the only element of society
that was to be considered, and that
anybody engaged in trade, or by stress
of circumstances required to do manual
labor for living, occupied station In
the community which forfeited all rights
to consideration for his welfare. Mr.
Wilson, as the head and front of this
section of his party, is naturally
out of sympathy with the business
interests of his party.

WHOEVER the Republican nominee for
Congress in the Sixth District may be,
he can count upon an old fashioned
majority from Garrett county. We are
for protection, and for an advocate of
protection, in this meek of the woods, "
to represent US at Washington. We
are against any candidate, ne matter
from what party or what county he may
hail. who is not a protectionist first,
last and all the time. Oar people be-
lieve in taking care Of home first and
are opposed to the man who advocates
any policy which takes from them the
opportunity to work and receive the
highest measure of wage for the service
rendered. Mr.. Lewis, in line with Mr..
Wilson, advocates and voted for
practical free trade, and he is partly
responsible for the hard times we are
having to-day. Mr.. Lewis is out OF
tune and not in harmony with the
interests of his constituents, and they
will see to it that he retires.

THE agricultural resources of Garrett

THE agricultural resources of Garrett
county are among the best in the State.
Our farmers are industrious, enterpris-
ing and intelligent and but need the
stimulus Of friendly rivalry to bring
their productions up to the highest state
of perfection. The object OF the fair is
to create such rivalry by bringing the
best products of our farm together to
show the public that our producers are
not behind those of other sections of
the State and the country in wrestling
riches from the soil and producing
wealth by skillful exercise of the brain
and Drawn of the mountaineers who in
habit the great county of Garrett.

Mr.. WILSON has been used all his

he goes up against real facts and people

The extravaganza and recklessness
OF the Democratic majority in Congress
is calling forth. not only the con-
domination of the Republicans, but, as
well, that of prominent members of the
Democratic party. Congressman ]. J.
Fitzgerald, one of the Democratic
leaders in the House, made remark
able speech in which he used the most
vigorous language possible. Among
other things he said:
You have unnecessarily piled up
public expenditures, until the Demo
cratic party is becoming the laughing
stock of the country"
He said the Democrats had absolutely
disregarded their platform promises
to the people to give the country an
economical administration of the
national government, but had failed
absolutely to keep faith with the
peoples He accused them of having
made such horrible mess of it, that
he felt like surrendering his position as
chairman of the House Committee on
Appropriations. He closed his speech
by saying: I'm few months | shall
be called upon. in the discharge of my
official. duties, to review the record
that this Democratic House shall have
made in its expenditures of the public
monies. Whenever l think of the
horrible mess that shall be called up

SPEECH COMMERCIALIZED.
By THEODORE URSULA IRVINE. Ora.
matte Reader OF Carnegie Hall.

matte Reader OF carnegie hhb.
America has gradually been emery
ing from the period when the strug-
gle with the soil occupied all her at
tention. In the field of music, of
painting, Of sculpture, she has made
herself felt, but in the use of her own
language she is still in the primitive
stage; and while her achievements in
the other arts have compelled the re-
spect of the world, her speech still
provokes its laughter and contempt.
It is not that our language lacks
beauty--it is our careless use of II
that deprives il Of charm. The criti-
cism has been made that our tones are
nasal, and that our voices are loud and
penetrating; it is a criticism not with
ont foundation. America is probably
the only progressive nation to-day that
has no universal speech standard. In
Germany the stage pronunciation is
the final court of appeal. In France
there is an organization for the teach
ing, and for the preservation, of the
perfect Partisan accent. IL Is well
understood that the French are in
ordinately proud of their beautiful
language, and that they take infinite
pains in the speaking Of il. They are
apt to feel that no one gets the fine
distinctions, the delicate nuances that
they do; that all who have the mis-
fortune 10 be born outside of In belle
France speak the language as Mark
Twain said he spoke il, like a native
Of another country
Would that such a spirit Of loyalty
70 our language might be aroused in
this country The successful produc-
ton OF opera in English has done much
10 reveal the inherent beauty of the
language. This has given an impetus
TO the use of English as an art, but it
has not as yet had any appreciate
influence on the speech of common
service, in the home, in the shop, on
the street.
Business men will struggle for
months TO learn Spanish, not because
they wish TO read Cervantes, but in or
den that they may buy wheat in South
America. In this age OF efficiency
men who care nothing for speech as
fine art are at once interested when
they realize that a trained speaking
voice has an actual commercial value.
In proof OF this, witness the numer-
Gus signs in downtown Offices, at sub
way booths, at railroad ticket windows

wholly upon Europe to furnish trained
workmen in the artistic industries. IL
is a fact that in New York, with It's
enormous demand for all kinds of
artistic productions, the positions re
curing highly skilled workers are filled
mainly by the artisans taught IN FOR
eign schools, while the American
youths must content themselves with
the drudgery of the shops where no
superior skill is required. What -
true of New York is equally true OF
other American cities.
Il was planned that this school should
in a measure change these conditions
and that practical work, lectures, loan
exhibitions. visits TO museums and
other directed means should give stu
dents an opportunity TO become familiar
with the importance of their crafts, that
with the knowledge so gained t-ey might
eduip themselves eventually 20 take
foremost places among applied art
workers.
That the cause Is a worthy one is
sufficiently evidenced by art manufact-
urers, artists and craftsmen in the
many fields of industrial art, who are
lending their support and encourage
ment through loans Of materials and
through cooperation with the instruc-
ton
The school Is essentially a training
place for artisans, though students with
satisfactory general skill In drawing
are admitted, and its constant aim is to
train from nature so that students may
go back to their work seeing more
clearly the meaning of 1t and feeling
more deeply the dignity of II. The
I l.. 90
lating artists to become better crafts
men and craftsmen better artists, and
encouraging craftsmen, designers for
manufacturers and manufacturers to a
high artistic standard, is the mission of
the school.
The course in costume design and
illustration touches upon several pro-
sessions. It aims to help newspaper
and magazine artists who desire TO spe-
1 ciaize along the lines of illustrative
fashion and designing; to train artists
IT, the technique of wash and detail
work for catalogues; TO aid tailors, de-
signers and dressmakers who seek n
better understanding of line and color,
as well as greater ability in sketching;
to prepare students who intend engag-
ing in advertising fashion work or who
wish TO draw for pattern houses; TO
give practical assistance TO commercial
illustrators who wish TO include fash
ion drawing in their work, and to help
sketchers for wholesale manufacturers.
Throughout, the endeavor to obtain
better drawing. a keener understand
ing Of color and a feeling for texture,
the value Of simplicity in line, of bal
ance and harmonious arrangement in
composition and of truthfulness to an
atomy are emphasized. In connection
with this students are privileged and
strongly recommended to attend the
life class. The costumed model also
serves a fashion illustrative end. The
students are led to observe how clothes
assume the contour of their wearers
and they are enabled TO depart from
the former stereotyped figures, thus
achieving for their work more truth
full and lifelike quality.

But let the mother call Johnny with

him.
Happily there are to be found in
America a few men and women VINO
recognize the need for improvement
in our speech, men and women who
look upon beautiful speech not only
as an accomplishment but as a practi-
cal necessity. Time was when the per-
son who attempted to cultivate a
pleasing voice was looked upon as eX-
hibiting weakness, as being artificial
and queer; and there are doubtless To-
calities still existing where correct
speech is thought TO be an affectation,
where for some unaccountable reason
il is resented. In such a community
a man will send his son to college. He
returns home full of new ideas. His
plans for the new electric light plant
are accepted, his ideas for improv-
ing the water supply are welcomed,
but let him once suggest the need for
lage and the whole town brands him
as eccentric and affected. Often after
suffering mild martyrdom the
young man gives up anu iclopSCo NV
the old faults to which his townspeo-
pie so tenaciously cling. What wonder
that progress is slow in improving our
speech! We have sufficient handi-
cap in the thousands of illiterate for
eigners who pour out of the ocean
liners into our cities every week. add
ing their many dialects to our already
imperfect speech, and if those born 20
speak the language have no love for
IL and no desire to speak it well, where
is the improvement TO begin?
The crusade for pure speech is wag-
ing war in the interest Of art for
arts sake, and business men are pro-
viding special voice training for their
employees for commercial reasons. II
people will not speak their own Ian
guage beautifully because they love
it, let them speak It we'll because it
pays commercially.
