DEMOCRATS ARE A FAILURE
As Law Makers and as EnforCers Of
she Laws Enacted.

Washington, D. c.. August Is. As
business managers the Democrats have
been conspicuous failure.
It has already been shown that the
three laws the last Congress enacted to
raise money, namely, the tariff. income
tax, and war tax laws, each failed
to produce the amount needed.
A study of the record Of laws enact
ed to spend money shows that careless
methods of appropriation insured waste
full expenditure
Examine the history of appropriation
bills during the time the Democratic
House has handled them, and you find
that fifteen regular appropriation bills
have failed to pass before the necessary
date, and that fifteen times a resolution
extending the appropriation OF the
previous year had to be passed.
This method of appropriation is an
admission of incompetency and inef-
fciencv in itself 1t causes a ire
mendous financial loss in the work of
every department of government. Il
complexities accounts, binders the max
ing Of plans in advance, prevents the
execution of contracts for necessary
work, and prevents allotting funds
equitably for the different seasons of
the year.
A member of the present cabinet.
Secretary of Commerce William C.
Redfeld. severely criticised Congress
for this kind of extravaganza in his last
annual report.
Finally, money loss arises from
failure to make appropriations in time
to keep the work of the government
moving, " said Secretary Redfeld. The
serious results of these latter losses are
probably not appreciated. They IN
doubtedly amount to more than some OF
the economies thought to be effected by
clipping estimates.
In this connection it should not be
overlooked that during the sixteen years
of Republican control preceding the
present administration, the appropria-
ton bills were invariably passed before
they were needed, and an extension re
solution was never restored to.
Two of this wear 5 great supply bills
one approprating funds for the Post
Office Department and the other fol-

estimates, planning new projects, an(

WINNING UiTH WELLER
Candidate Is Steadily Gaining Ground
In all Parts Of The State.

The Republican State Central Com
mittee met at the Rennert Hotel in
Baltimore last Wednesday, The wmk
o. the Committee was entirely routine
bat the meeting attracted Republicans
from all over the State to Baltimore.
/ These gentlemen represented the active
leadership in practically every county,
/ The most significant fact was that they
were nearly unanimously in favor of
Mr.. Weller's nomination. The Baiti-
more News said that nine out of every
ten were for Mr.. Weller. Mr.. Weller
had q suite of rooms for his headqaart-
ers which were constantly thronged
with his friends and admirers. It was
a splendid opportunity for State wide
Weller sentiment TO crystalize. The
Republicans went home convinced that
Mr.. Weller would be nominated, and
perfectly happy in that conviction
The proportion of Weller men at the
State Committee Meeting as given by
the Baltimore News IS a far index OF
Weller sentiment throughout the State
The rank and file of the party believe
that Mr. Weller can be elected because
ne combines all the qualities which
public opinion is demanding a Governor
should have. The rank aud file want
candidate who can win. Everyone Is
talking economy and efficiency in the
State Government The newspapers
are writing about It The thoughtful
people know that Mr. Weller, more
than any other candidate for Governor,
is able to give practical effect to the
desire that the States affairs be put on
a business basis. Only a business man
who has successfully conducted large
enterprises can do this. Mr. Weller
will give the State a Business Admins
tration by A BUSINESS MAN.
Mr.. Robert F. Duer of Somerset
County, has announced his candidacy
for the nomination as Comptroller. The
Weller ticket is thus complete 1t Is
/ splendidly balanced geographically: for
Mr. Doub comes from Allegheny
County, Mr.. Weller from Central Mary
land and Mr.. Duer from the South
East. But the real merit of the ticket
consists rather in the Individual worth
of the gentlemen composing it. Mr.
Doub is unopposed for the nomination.
