FRIDAY. JUNE 10. 1914.

The political atmosphere has been
surcharged during the week with all
kinds of verbal pyrotechnics from the fore
most personages in the State and de-
gree of feeling has been created that is
not in exact keeping with the usual run
of things. In other words our United
States Senatorial Representatives seem to
be and in fact are not on any of the best
of terms with regard to Federal patron
age in the State Of Maryland. Pro-
voked to the point of extreme endurance
Senator John Walter Smith had long
reply in the Sun and american
on Tuesday morning last, to a public
statement made by Senator Blair Lee
last week. The followers of both Sena-
tors of course will naturally take sides
but the middle of the road man proba-
bly, will feel ike saying get together. y
This is unfortunately just what they can
not do or at least have not done so far.
1t is not denied that there is something
coming in the way of Federal patronage
or positions or whatever you care to call
it, to Maryland, and the dominant party
certainly deserves the proper recognition,
which has no doubt been delayed up to
this time by reason of the contentious
between our Senators President Will
son owes it to the Democracy Of the
State, without discrimination, to make
appointments with as little delay as pos
sible, and further to look into the condi-
tions here rightly and without prejudic-
ial misinformation sby certain elements
for purely personal and selfish reasons.
The Democracy of the State supported
the President at the polls ungrudgingly,
even though they had in the primary Sc
lected Champ Clark as their preference
IF such lines were to be drawn by the
President in his treatment of men and
affairs throughout his term of office, what
straits, could your imagination figure out,
would the party be put to? We believe
Mr.. Wilson is bigger man than tt allow
such considerations to warp his judgment
in this matter especially, and feel sure
that his way finally will be marked with
business to all and special favors to none.
That seems to be the underlying note
in Senator Smith s public statement and
Senator Lee would justify the faith
many have in him if he would co operate
To add to the gaiety Of the season
former Attorney-General Isaac Lobe
Straus has issued pronuncimento to
the voters of the State in which he gives
his reasons for preferment. He will be
on the list this fall and feels sure the
labor vote will carry him through.

EYnerts and Government.

When a private individual or business in
stitution employs an expert to diagnose unsat-
isfactory conditions and prescribe the remedy.
at least an effort is made to carry out the ex-
pert's recommendations. Expert advice in mat
ters pertaining to the public business or TO poll
cies Of the government on the other hand, seem
TO carry much less weight. The Railway Age
Gazette cites the fact that we have time and
again called in experts on questions Of large
moment to the country only TO ignore their find
ings as for example, the special commission on
railways securities, the joint congressional
committee TO adjust railway mail pay, the
monetary commission TO formulate a banking
law, and the selection by the president OF ex-
perts to direct the new reserve bank. In this
country" we are told, the fact that man is a
recognized expert on any subject is sufficient
10 make the typical politician and bureaucrat
regard him with suspicion, and accept with re-
luctance or entirely reject his views" Not con-
tent with this mild reference It continues:
The United states is the worst governed civilized
country on earth. Its cit, state and national legs-
latures and administrations wasteful inefficient
and often corrupt The chef cause OF the waste ana
nefflcency is the habtual ignoring Of the expert by
the politician and bureaucrat
Whether or not the expert holds the KEEP
tc the situation. this is indeed severe indict-
ment that challenges attention. When every
business is being systematised to meet require
ments of economy and efficiency, the continual
neglect or indifference to the business OF gov
ernment by those who have most at stake and
foot the bulk Of the bills cannot help but lead
to waste, extravaganza and inefficiency.
