THE EXPECTED HAPPENED

The Hon. Jesse d. Price, elected to
fill the uneXpired term in Congress of
Judge Covington and for the full term
in the Sirty-fourth Congress, has run
true to form.
Mr.. Price has the honor Of misrep-
resenting the only congressional dis
trict in Maryland that is absolutely
dry. In conversation with one of his
friends the writer was informed that
he was so seriously cut by the rum
element in his district on account of
his support of the Eastern Shore Anti
Shipping law that he almost went
down to defeat. Had it not been for
the loyal support given him by the
temperance Democrats of his district
his political pelt would now adorn the
front door of the Republican head
quarters.
According to a statement of one of
his own campaign managers these
high-grade Democrats saved him from
political humiliation at the hands of
the wet element of his party; yet at
the first opportunity Mr.. Price votes
against the wishes of his friends and
with his enemies. Such is political
gratitude. O Lord, how long!
We cannot help but use this to il
lustrate the necessity of defeating any

AFTER
AN ID

Representative Price, in expla-
nation of his vote, said to The
Sun correspondent:
81 do not believe it is question
for constitutional action. 1t is
essentially a local question, and
under our system of government
should be controlled, regulated or
abolished as the people of each
state or subdivision of a state
shall decree.
II fully realize the good in Pro-
hibition, but am not satisfied to
sacrifice that principle of states
rights for the doubtful good that
may come under the Hobson reso-
luton. AS no law can be enforced
unless public sentiment is behind
1t, condition of affairs that
would be intolerable would exist
in the states that would not APP
prove the proposal.
1T is not, in my opinion, the
function of the general govern
ment to undertake police powers
in the several states. To do so
would certainly tend to undermine
the very foundation upon which
our government was established
and would create a vast army of
inquisitious job-holders, whose
existence would be irritating,
whose duties would be repulsive
to American freemen and would
serve to undermine the love and
respect that all the world holds
toward American free institu-

Order is hereby adopted by the Board

The transportation of cattle, sheep,

from the state of Illinois for any pur-

points where federal or municipal in

sincere compliment is paid to the
state and county organizations for
the work of perfecting the referen-
dun of the Sprague gerrymander.
1T Is remarkable that you have ac-
cOmplished so much at so little ex-
pense writes the General to Mr..
Finley. AS matter Of fact the ex-
pense of securing PETITIONS was neg
ligible, the only money necessary be-
ing for printing, correspondence and
postage. On the call of the state or
gdl zation, the county organizations
responded to man, notwithstanding
the fact there were no personal re-
wards to workers, or pay for circula-
tors Of petitions. The results gain
ed speak volumes for the solidarity
of the Democratic organization in
Ohio and the working association
with the leaders, prominent men and
the rank and file. OF course there
was some opposition to meet and ov-
ercome but the success showed in am
pie measure the feeblenss of those

WHO PAYS, CALAMITY?
Who pays the tariff?

Who pays the tariff?
There used to be a pleasant delus-
ion that the foreigner paid" the idea
being apparently, that European
manufacturers loved us so much that
they would pay from so to $50 per
cent duties on the goods out of their
own pockets and never dream of add
ing the sum to be paid to the final
selling price. By way of commentary
on that notiOn-not so popular now
as 1t used to be-the Journal pre-
sents the following true story:
Down in Ohio there is an auto
mobile firm that is trying hard to get
a good Canadian trade With good
roads, vast distances, and a prosper
Gus people, Canada offers a splendid
market for autos. Here, If anywhere
the foreigner ought to pay the tariff
tax which Canadian Legislators have
placed on motor cars. Does the Ohio
firm do it?
Not quite. 1t advertises thus:
Touring car, United States price,
$3.50.
Touring car, Canadian price,
$1O5O.
The Canadian duty on automobiles
is AZ u per cent. Forty-two and one
half per cent on the retail American
price would come to $318.75, where
as the actual excess the Canadian
customer pays for this Ohio car is on
ly $500. The extra $18.75 probably
comes out of the agents commission. |
Does the foreigner pay? He does !
not, and here is one firm honest en-
ough to say so. The consumer pays
first last and all the time. On auto
