THE WHOLE TRUTH.

Anyone who seeks now to make po-
lltlcal capital out of business de-
preston in Pennsylvania, is playing with
a dangerous toy. think that in few
months there will be a dangerous flare
back for those gentlemen who are now
working the depression as a political ar
gument. There is no real depression in
pennsylvania. except such as results
from sympathetic relationship with the
railroads. The entire steel and IRON IN
dustry, industries furnishing equipment
purchasing businesses, mining, all are
affected by the railroad situation. -

vania, (Progressive).

FRIDAY. JULY 81. 1914.


The death Of John William
Baughman until recently one of the
editors and proprietors Of this paper, is
particularly pathetic in view of the fact
that although desperately i'll, he was on
his way back to the home of his child
hood and maturity, to be once again, if
only for little while, amongst those
whom he loved and who shared a deep
and wholesome affection for him. The
details Of his demise are given in an
other column and show him to have been
closely identified with political, bus
mess and social affairs. There were
few more genial and lovable characters.
His residence in Norfolk, Virginia, Of
late years was made up Of pleasant as
sociations and warm friendships, and his
family are in receipt of many tributes to
his memory from all around. He will
be greatly missed by the younger as we'll
as the older generations, with both of
which he had established bonds of the
closest kind, and also by his family, in
whose realms he was always revered and
loved.

Auto Hits Men and Then Speeds
Away.

Two motorcyclists were badly injured
shortly after ten O'Clock on Wednesday
night, July 29th, when the machine on
which they were riding coIlided with an
automobile which was going at rapid
rate IN front OF the residence of Mr.. John
Best, on the Emmitsbur5 Pike. near
Frederick. Despite the accident the
speed of the automobile was increased
after the collision and the cyclists, who
now lay in the Frederick City Hospital,
are unable to give the facts that may
lead to the capture of the occupant or
occupants Of the car.
The injured are: Ernest Utterback,
aged about twenty, broken hand, deep
cash in his head, and otherwise bruised
and cut.
Lewis Ketrow, aged about twenty, a
broken leg and severe bruises and cuts.

THE charge of Democratic response
bility for hard times, both present and

the present even the enemies of the ad.

the tide of business is rising steadily.

NOT A FAIR CRITICISM.

MUST STOP DRAWING RURAL
BOYS TO THE CITY.
One of the Problems That Will
be Discussed at the Country
Life Conference, at the
Maryland Agricultural
College.

College.
Although the Country Life Conference
of Maryland Ministers to be held at the
MARYLAND Agricultural College, on Au-
gust 4th, 5ih and 9th. will be in the ma
ture OF an innovation in this State. still
1t promises to be splendid success,
and much advance interest is being
shown in it,
The Conference, besides being the oc-
casion for many instructive addresses by
prominent clergymen and authorities on
country life, will furnish the ministers a
means for the intercommunication OF
ideas concerning rural pastorates, etc. i,
that, it is considered, will be of great
practical value.
Mr. r. Fl. barrow, the General Sec
rotary of the College Young Mems
Christian Association, is very enthusi-
astic over the outlook for the Confer
ence.
1.-The promoters of the Conference, "
he said. have no dream that it will
bring about an immediate and pronounce
ed change in the church lite of Maryland.
They realize that only by thoughtful and
vigorous effort over period ofyears will
Nevertheless, much should be &C
complished by this meeting OF men IN
tent on knowing more about the prob
lem that they may be better able to cope
with it. Every minister in the State has
been invited, and scores are gladly en-
braCng the opportunity.
Farmers, too, are manifesting their
interest and not only the men but also
the women. The farmers wife can tell
of hard work, worry and disippont-
ment, and with but little opportunity for
INDUCING in the finer sensibilitieS of her
nature. She is too often bound down by
the tedious routine of daily duties, and
her naturally social nature is like a
spring walled up at its source.
The farmer boy-jollv, care free,
country boy-wish | were back there
again, says a thousand cliff jewellers OF
our crowded cities.
Yes. but what does the country boy
say Co h., This place is so dead that
1t will dry up and blow away some
of these days And his opinion, not
yours or mine, determines what he will
do.
The country can spare quite a bit of
Its energy and pluck, and good, red
blood. But the city has already drafted
SO many of the country stars into its
league with tempting contracts and bo-
muses. that the Agricultural League makes
a poor showing IN many hamlet and
town. This drafting must stop-Peter
mast not be robbed 10 pay Paul, espec.
tally when Peter owes naught to Paul
The only way to stop it is to COM
pete boldly with the city. 1t must make
the country neighborhood a pleasant,
and an interesting place in which to
dwell. This does not mean that city
life should be aped, but that there should
be more anusements. more play life,
more games and more social affairs.
The farm will not lose financially by
1t, but the boy and the girl will feel the
challenge of the country. The drafting
will cease then and the country will come
into its own
is not this one of the minister's
problems 1t IS but one of several
phases of the question that will be taken
up by the assembled ministers.

STRAIGHT AND GOOD
 TALK

On the occasion of his firSl address to the student body of the University of Arizona, President Won Kleinsmidt voiced many ideals and sug- geSted many ideals which give promise that students in this state will benefit much from his presence as head of the institution. His talk was charged with rugged vitali- ties which must have appear ed in the right way to his au- dience. It was an expression of true thought in distinction from high-broWism. The speakers attitude toward the student body was made plain in the following words:
 AS fellow student with you, 1 greet you in the hope that our labor together in science, in literature, in phil 0sophy, in art, nav keep Us all with open minds and fear less hearts, ready to accept the truth wherever found, and frank to live the truth as truth demands. As a friend l greet you in the anticipa- ton of a growing and mutual regard-in the desire that our association will be rare in understanding and rich in

WOULD PUNISH PAR ENTS, NOT WHIP
 CHILDREN

The prosecution of parents instead of truant Children ; the extension of mothers pensions, relieving children of the necessity of working to support the home; less corporal punishment and more uniform marriage and divorce laws, met the general approval of the delegates of the National League of Com pulSory Education at Detroit.
 Recommendations were made during the discussion of the subject of subnormal children which was lead by William L. Bodine, Superin- tendent of compulsory edu- cation, of Chicago. Paren- tai schools have a tremen- douS force for good, accord ing to Bodine.
 There is a noticeable in- crease in subnormaI chil- dren," he said. Parents should be given proper train ing to overcome this problem and if they will not benefit accordingly we should prose cute the parents more and the children less. In the higher education of the chil- dren, let us get at the lower education of the parents.
 Bodine also urged the lea que to go on record favoring expansion of the powers of juvenile courts, so that par entS, instead of children, would be put on probation in cases of violation of the compulsory education laws.
 This convention should announce its opposition to

NO POLITICS IN THE
 WAR

It goes without saying thai no man or party should try to make political capital out of the European war. That catastrophe, which finds the people of every belligerent power united in their coun- try's defense, should find nc less unity here. We may diff fer as we will about matters of domestic policy, but in the presence of the foreign men ace which imperilS so many phases of our prosperity, our honor and even our life, there should be no partisan ship.
 The first weeks of the war brought almost as com plete unanimity at Washing ton as at London, Paris or Berlin. Statesmen of all par ties combined in the enact ment of emergency measures. Finance, commerce and in- dustry had been swept from their mooringS. New queS- tions of national policy were raised. They were met promptly and decided regard less of faction. In the future handling of war problems partisanship should likewise be Subordinated to enlighten- ed patriotism.
 This same duty devolveS upon every man or inStitu- ton that has to do with pub lie opinion. Newspapers particularly owe it to the community ito deal with war matters in a broad, liberal spirit.
 It will be time enough to take stock of the war and as- sign political credit or blame when the war is over. In the meantime it would be absurd to draw party lines on war policies. Our political plat forms never contemplated this conflict. In facing it's dangers we are no more fac tional than soldiers on the firing line. We are not Re- oublicans or Democrats or ProgressiveS or Socialists, put simply Americans.
