co. NJ. FIRST M. n. G.
ENLISTED q MEN
More Than it Has Discharged Dur
ing 1914.
ONLY EXCEEDED BY 2 COMPANIES.
Great Activity in Basketball at Armory
This Winter---John Boone Elected
Captain.

As shown by a circular issued by the
Adtutant-General, Company NJ. First
Regiment,this city, has enlisted twenty
one men more than it has discharged
during the years 1913 and 1914. and up
TO April of the present year.
Only two companies in the brigade
make better showing along this line.
II is also known that the personnel of
the company has improved To a very
great extent II is only necessary to
secure ten or twelve more desirable re-
cruits and the company will have it's
full strength.
The members of the company. from
Capt Louis B. Myers down. intend to
push the company to the front this fall
and winter so that Annapolis will have
the best company in the brigade. AT
least half dozen young men have al
ready signified their intention of join
ing the company, so the applicants
should come quick or there may be no
vacancies
1t is apparent that the young men Of
Annapolis are beginning to wake up to
the fact that they are not the only per-
forming their patriotic duty in joining
the company,but they are putting them
selves in the way of enjoying all the
advantages of the Armory, privilege
no other young men here have.
There will be great activity in bas-
ketball at the Armory this winter Tho
company will have all of its old ma.
terial and some new men. Everyone
will be given fair chance TO make the
team, and no favors will be shown. 1t
is also expected that schedule will be
arranged for the second team John
Boone has been elected captain for the
coming season, and Andreas Holley
manager. Sergeant Holley is arrang
ing the schedule now
The schedule will include several
nice trips. 1t is intended that games
will be arranged among the different
companies of the First Regiment, ac-
cording to section, and that the win
ners in the preliminaries will pay for
the championship. The NJ Company is
determined to win.

SIX OR SEVEN MIDDIES
LISTED FOR DISMISSAL.
Naval Inquiry Board Finds Them Guilty
of Hazing- --0thers to be
Disciplined.

Six or seven midshipmen have been
recommended for dismissal from the
Naval Academy as briefly stated in yes
terday's Capital, by the acting superin-
tendent Of the Academy either for haz-
ing or falsehoods in connection with
the recent investigation.
Secretary Daniels notified the accus-
ed midshipmen. offering them opportu-
mites TO make explanation Their
names were not made public. In addi-
tion TO the midshipmen recommended
for dismissal, larger number we're
recommended for disciplinary action.
The latter We're found to have been
guilty of assuming too much authority
and other Objectionable conduct not
amounting to hazing.
Under the regulations of the Acad-
emy, midshipmen may be dismissed
without a court-martial trial if guilty
Of more than one offense of haziAg.
One of those recommended for dismis
sal was found guilty of more than
seven offenses. If his explanation. to
be forwarded to the Secretary is not
satisfactory, he will be dismissed
without trial by court-martial
1t is believed practically all the 9th
ers recommended for dismissal were
found guilty of moro than one offense.
so that 2 cOurt-martial would not be
necessary in any case. Before Lis-
missal is made, however, the recon-
mendations must go to the President
for his approval.
The investigation into the hazing in
cidents was conducted by a naval board
selected by the head of tie Academy
and its report was designed for his
guidance. The inquiry attracted wide
attention because conducted at about
the same time the inquiry into other ir-
regularities was being conducted.

PERSONNEL OF CANDIDATES
HARRINGTON AND RITCHIE.
Men Of the People Who Are Repre-
sentative Citizen.

With Emerson c. Harrington. the
candidate for Governor. Albert c. Rit-
chic, the candidate for Attorney-Gen
eral. and Hugh A McMullen. the candi-
late for Comptroller, the Democracy OF
Maryland will wage triumphant bat
lie at the polls.
Such a combination Of representative
citizens will bring victory to the ban
ner of Democracy when unfurled 10 tho
breezes of November. From the stand
point of geographical situation, this
ticket is hard to equal Harrington
from the heart of the Eastern Shore, a
man who hearkens to the voice of every
day people, and is in sympathy with
their every need
He is no silk-stocking candidate, no
kid glove politician, but a man of the
masses who has made his way forward
by hard work ,untiring efforts and scru-
pulously honest. A plain man of the
people, one of them and proud to be
one of them. A strong, capable repre-
sentative Marylander, whose greatest
ambition is TO be of service to his State
and his fellow man.
Ritchie of Baltimore city. a brilliant
lawyer, a student of present-day condi-
tions, but foremost the unswerving
friend of the masses. A man who has
been fighting the peoples battles so
long that he has forgotten TO fight
otherwise. He has given of his time.
his talents, and his private means to
protect the laboring classes of Balti-
more city against the oppression of cor
poration greed and special interests.
On the Eastern Shore, Mr.. Ritchie is
known for his full value. and his can
didacy is exceedingly popular
McMullen, of Western Maryland from
the heart of the great coal fields Of our
mountain section, man who began his
life's career i'm an Allegany coal mine,
and whose achievements while MAX
ing his way to his present position of
honor and trust, rivals the accomplish
ments of Abraham Lincoln. McMullen
is manly man-one who knows the
hardships and privations of the labor
ing man, because he came from among
them. Republicans and Democrats,
alike, who know Mr. McMullen, are
proud of their acquaintance with the
big, noble, charitable man from West
ern Maryland, and recognize his quail
fications for the Comptrollership as
ideal. He has demonstrated his splen-
did business ability in many private
ventures, and with such an official in
charge of the States financial system,
the hest interests Of tho comuonx xvao Il d

Desiring to raise money for the Civic

al of the younger smart set at Arundel

WHY BUILD BIG NAVY?
BRYAN SOLVES 1T ALL.
Would Have II Highways So Farmers
Can Mobilize to Gust Enyators.

William J Bryan has what he re-
CARDS as dandy strategic plan for ma
tional defense. His contention is thar
with twelve highways leading from
coast to coast the American farmers
who could fight foreign foe could seize
their guns and mobilize quickly at GER
tain given points by riding to them i'm
their motor cars.
The plan was announced in the course
of speech on "The Causeless War"
given at the First Presbyterian Church
in Oak Park. Chicago. III, and in other
addresses delivered in that city. Mr..
Bryan speaking to reporters at the Uni
versity Club Just before he left Chi
cago not only admitted that he said it,.
but defended it, He was especially
wroth at the criticisms that such roads
might serve the enemy for the trans
port of artillery.
Il have been interested to see how
the advocates of preparedness jump at
the chance TO discredit and attempt TO
divert money away from the building
OF battleships into useful channels" he
said. Two Chicago newspapers have
suggested that the danger that the good
roads / seek might be used by the enc
my. This is a far-fetched argument.
We have many other things an enemy
might use. We must dispense with
good roads because an invader might
use them for the transport OF artillery
why not make the future absolutely
safe by destroying all the roads and
then destroying everything that might
invite an enemy to invade us?
How far. I ask. Will this frenzy for
preparedness be carried before the jim
goes return to sanity? If they will just
consent to apply to international affairs
the common sense principles that
neighbors apply to each other. we need
not be scared about the dangers OF
invasion"
When the statement was finished, Mr.
Bryan added: That's my answer and
that's all am going TO say"

A WEAK EXPLANATION.

It is hardly probable that this
government will accept Ger
many's explanation of the sink
ing of the Arabic. The contention
that the commander of the sub
marine which launched the fatal
torpedo that it was done in self
defense, he believing his boat to
be in danger of attack, is rather
a flimsy excuse in view of the
fact that the torpedo which sank
the Arabic struck the ship near
the stern and not in the bow, as
would have been the case had the
liner made an attempt to run the
submarine down.
The American people have
been very patient with the war
ring European nations and so
long as the rights of her citizens
are respected the United States
would prefer to be friendly with
all, but promises must neither be
avoided nor treated as scraps of
paper.

SHALL WE INCREASE OUR TAXES!

In Missouri all that is neces-
sary to conduct a first class Re-
publican newspaper, apparently,
is a wide, we'll developed streak
of pessimism, together with an
iron clad conscience and an elias
tic imagination.
For years the G. O. P. editors
have been holding the state up
to the public gaze as poor old
Missouri" and Of late the attack
has broken out locally with the
eminent editor of the Bates Coun-
ty Record, who is advertising the
county, whose people are furnish
ing his daily bread, as one of the
"pauper" counties of the state
upon the flimsy excuse that Bates
county receives as her apportion-
ment Of the states revenues ap-
proximately 100000.

who desire the county to refuse
to accept her full share of the
state appointments kindly hold

of what the Record insinuates to
be charitable donation?

FOUND A MARES NEST.

The Bates County Record,
which of late has developed a
wonderful penchant for finding
mares nests attacks the cOun-
ty court because the petit jury
and the grand jury as drawn for
the October term Of the Circuit
Court does not contain quite
enough Republicans or Progress
sives, (it is difficult to ascertain
with just which party Mr.. Alike
son is now affiliated).
The County Court, which Mr..
Atkeson well knows picked these
juries in strict accordance with
the statutes, selected the names
from which they were drawn
without regard to politics, en-
deav0ring to secure upon the
juries the type of men best quail
flied to serve in such capacity,
and Mr.. Atkeson and his political
advisers may substantiate this
statement at the county clerk s
office where the slips containing
these names are still on file.
Should he take the trouble to
look these names over, we believe
he will also find that the gentle
men selected for the jury draft
were nearly equally divided in
political complexion.
