Old System Dodging

In order to get the peoples
minds off the subject of use
less Offices, Harrington suggest
ed a commits sion to be appointed
after the primaries.
Lee made speech in Balti-
more, showing that the way to
do a thing is to do it and that he
is in earnest and prepared to ac-
cept the responsibility, as the
peoples Governor, of abolishing
useless offices, stopping the
leaks and applying the business
principles of economy and
efficiency to the State govern
ment.
To change the subject the Old
System published a two column
adv. filled with abuse of Lee
and his campaign managers.
There was not a word in the 300
lines about the subject of USE
less offices, or about Harrington's
record, or what he proposed to
do if he were nominated and
elected Governor.
Harrington's adv. has told the
people where Lees campaign
fund comes from. Now, will
they tell who is putting up Har-
rington's campaign fund!
Money is being spent lavishly in
Baltimore, and all over the
State, for Harrington. Where
is this money coming from?''
In Mondays papers the "Old
System" has another double
column adv. entitled "Glimpses
of Senator Lees Legislative Re-
cord" in which they tried to
make it appear that Senator Lee
sometimes did what the "Old
System" does all the time.
They say that when he was
Chairman of the Judiciary Com
mittee he had a Clerk and a
Stenographer appointed and vot-
ed to pay them for services rem
dered. Of course he did. He
many times voted to pay persons
reasonable compensation for
services rendered. No one wants
the public business hampered,
by lack of necessary employees.
It is useless offices the people
want abolished and Mr.. Harring-
ton hasn't mentioned one useless
office he would abolish, or one
useless office Lee voted to create.
Senator Lee was opposed to Van
Divers election as Treasurer,
but voted for him when he be-
came the Democratic nominee.
Lee has always been regular.
The statement that he 'combin-
ed with the Republican" is dis
proven by the record which
shows that on the adoption of the
Harper Resolution, there were
eleven Democrats voting with
Lee and only six against. Sena-
tor Lee did propose to have the
Appropriation Bill considered by
the Senate as Committee of the
whole. He wanted to have the
peoples money appropriated in
the open. The budget plan is
an even better method of turn
ing on the light on the matter of
appropriating the taxpayers
money. Senator Lee definitely
committed himself to that plan
in the early part of this cam
Daign.

unduly increase the tax rate of
the State. This problem they al
so worked out and carried through the
Legislature.
Until these men appeared on the
scene progressive Democrats as
they came to be called) little had been
done by the Democratic organization
to promote the material interests of
the State or any part of the State
since the time-now over 40 years ago
when Oden Bowie of Prince Georges
county, the first real progressive
Democrat since the war-the first to
recognize the fact that the Democratic
party ought to do something more for
the people of Maryland than merely
keep the Republican party out of pow
er-used his power as Governor of the
State to secure the construction of
another line of railroad to Washington
city and line to Southern Maryland,
a section which up to that time had had
n railroad service whatever.
"He had desperate fight to secure
this benefit to the people of the State,
because at that time the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, which then was not
under the liberal management that
characterizes it at present, had a tre-
mendous grip on the politics of Mary
land. and fought this new project des-
perately through the agency of the
politicians whom it controlled.
According to my understanding of
the true meaning of the word, Oden
Bowie was the first progressive Demo
crat that the State has produced.
''In other words, whatever it may
mean elsewhere. the term progressive
Democracy in Maryland means that
element of the party which believes
in making the party do something.
"Blair Lee and those supporting him
in this contest stand for progressive
Democracy thus defined. They stand
for Democracy which devotes itself
mainly to the service of the public and
not to the service of private interests.
"The difference between Lee and
Harrington in this campaign is that
Lee represents the present and future
and Harrington represents the past.
at will depend upon whether we
nominate and elect one or the other
of these candidates whether the State
of Maryland shall go forward in the
path of progress or not"

Treasurer of Prince Georges county,

ISSUES OF THIS CAMPAIGN

We again call attention to the
failure in any Harrington adv.
to show one reason in favor of
the nomination of Mr.. Harring-
ton, or one progressive measure
with which his name is associat-
ed. Every reason, from the
standpoint of the State, or of
the City, or of the Party, calls
for the nomination of Lee. Lee
tells the people plainly what he
proposes to do, if elected Cover
nor. He has a record, which
is a guarantee that he will do,
what he promises. He has con-
Quoted a clean campaign, free
from mud-slinging. Lees nomi-
nation means a sure victory in
November.

Mr.. EDITOR
Dear Sir:

As candidate for renomi-
nation to the House of Delegates. I
have been requested by many voters of
Prince Georges County to state my
views on some of the more important
questions in which the people are inter-
ested, and to say something about my
record in the Legislative session of
1914. It is not only pleasure to do
this, but justice to the voters demands
it, and regret that this article must
be limited to the space of newspaper
article
AS member of the last Maryland
Legislature l supported the State
Roads Commission, and helped defeat
the pernicious Wilkinson Road Bill
which aimed to place $1,000, 900 of
States money in control Of politi clans
to be handled in way to advance their
political interests.
AS Chairman of the Committee on
Inspections l was instrumental in de-
feating bill which would have repealed
the present law for State inspection
of lime and fertilizer, leaving the farm
ers at the mercy of the manufacturers.
Fathered the bill, which was passed,
providing for the chemical analysis of
agricultural soils for the benefit of
farmers.
Was author of the State Lime bill
which provided for the manufacture of
shell lime by the states convicts. said
lime to be sold to farmers at cost.
This measure was fought by the in
terests engaged in manufacturing lime.
1t passed the House, was amended in
the Senate and ''killed' amid the con-
fusion of the closing hours of the ses-
sion.
Supported both State and County
Local Option bills.
AS a member of Committee on
Agriculture was instrumental in pre-
venting the planting of shade trees on
farm lands along roadsides, without
consent of the land owners.
AS members of Committee on Edu-
cation supported the bill which was
passed providing for a State Educa
tional Survey, which aims to systema-
tie educational institutions throughout
the state, and save many thous ands of
dollars annually.
Voted against bill providing for larg
er increase in Judges salaries, worked
for Improvement of Maryland Agricul-
tural College; also the Home Rule
Amendment to the State Constitution,
and took part in many other matters of
Importance which have to be omitted
for want of space.
If elected l shall oppose bonding
the county for any purpose without
submission to vote. Will oppose the
envelope feature of the present pri-
mary law. Will oppose lavish expendi-
lures by the Legislature or for main
tenance of useless Offices. Will favor
submitting the saloon question to a
vote in the county, will stand for low
or taxes through efficiency and economy
and will view all matters that come
before me in these lights of the tax
payer and especially of the farmer.
Thanking you for this opportunity
to express myself openly and squarely
before the people whom l aspire to
serve, | remain
Yours truly,
J. H. BLANDFORD, JY.
