It Is now only a matter of few
weeks before the price of the
Fairfield "Six-46" will be SUBJ
stantially increased.
As every business man knows, the
costs of materials and labor have
been soaring for the past year
and are still soaring. Many COM
rnodities cost fDics as much as
they did even six months ago.
So. Of course, there is only one
thing for q manufacturer TO do
increase the selling price Of his
product I'm proportion TO the in
creased cost of materials.
We absolutely refuse TO "conpro-
mise" on the quality of Paige

The best of all light SKIES can now

Remember, the Paige Company
challenges any manufactures In
the industry to produce a car

APPEALS COURT MAY
MEET FOR TAX CASE
State Commissioners to Ask That
Special Session Be Held.

BALTIMORE, Md, August 11.-Chair-
man Arthur P. German of the State
Tax Commission said that the Court of
Appeals will be asked to sit in spec ial
session at the earliest possible date to
hear the appeal from the decision of
the circuit court of Frederick county
holding unconstitutional the act of 1916
authorizing a reassessment of real
property in the counties of Maryland.
A resolution setting forth the i'm
portance of an early hearing of the
case and detailing the consequences
that may result if the Frederick court S
opinion is upheld, was prepared by MIR.
German and his associate commission
ers. Yesterday afternoon Edward M.
Hammond, counsel to the Tax Commits
sioEer presented the resolution to Chief
Judge A. Hunter Boyd, at his home in
Cumberland. At the same time copies
were sent to the other members of the
court. so that it will not be necessary
for Judge Boyd to make elaborate ex-
plantations when it comes to acquaint-
ing his colleagues with the commission
request.
The next regular term of the Court
of Appeals will begin in October. Mr..
German is of the opinion that the case
in question is of too much Importance to
be postponed until that time. AS things
stand. all plans for making the re-
assessment will be dropped until the
Court of Appeals says whether such
reassessment can be made.
Governor Harrington does not take
so pessimistic view of the situation as
some of the members of the Tax Com
mission, as most of them, in fact, en-
terrain. He does not believe that prior
assessments will be wiped out, nor that,
even should the Frederick county
opinion be sustained. it will be impos-
sible to collect any taxes for the com
ing year He admits. however, that
things may stop where they are and
that, until the Legislature passes an
enabling act it may not be possible to
make sny changes in assessments or to
add to old assessments the value of new
improvements made to property.

HUGHES ON THE STUMP

If our friends the enemy have been
hugging to their hearts the illusion that
six.years of comparative seclusion upon
the Supreme Court bench have untitled
Mr.. Hughes as a political campaigner
the vigor and earnestness of his few
days work in the field must have Danish
ed the notion.
No fair minded reader or hearer of
Mr.. Hughes can have any doubt about
what he would have done to uphold the
honor of the nation and to defend the
rights and persons of American citizens
wherever and by whomsoever threaten
ed. He fulflls every reasonable re-
qulrement when he lays bare the mis-
takes and blunders of the present ad-
ministration and pledges himself to the
people that, placed in position of exc
cutive responsibility, he will "see to it
that America S rights are safeguarded,
and that Americas name in admins
tration, in policy and in execution is
honored throughout the world"
This means, of course, that had the
responsibility of dealing with the Mexi-
can troubles rested on his shoulders he
would not have neglected to provide for
the protection of the lives of Ameri-
cans in Mexico, he would not have
meddled in.the national affairs of the
country by debating who should and
who should not become candidate for
President, he would.not have forced an
aimless and futile intervention in Mexi-
can affairs, fhe would not have dickered
first with onesand then with another of
the bandit chieftains who were engaged
in the effort Ito overthrow order and
authorltyiat the City of Mexico, and he
certainly would not have given counte.
nance and assistance to Villa or anyone
like him.
In the face of specific declarations
like these. it is childish to insist, as
some of his critics.are insisting, that he
shall reverse the form of his attack and
point OUTING other and less effective
phrases the things which he would have
done. 1t is quite sufficient for the coun-
try to learn what he would not have
done, especially. in the light of the an
archy and bloodshed that haye been the
direct resultsIof the misguided and vas
cillating policies of the government
during the last three years.
The comingi years. will determine
national destinies as.never before in the
world history, and America will inevi-
tably suffer.if the guiding hand in the
future, as in the!present, is irresolute
and timid, If American rights are to be
fiouted without. effective protest and
Americansi lives wantonly sacrificed
without reparation or redress. This is
the meaning sthe present concentra-
ton of attack on the foreign policies
and actions of President Wilson. and
Mr.. Hughes issdrecting it with a skill
and resolution. that must find an echo in
American hearts, response in Ameri-
can patriotism.

DAVE" DIDN'T KNOW.

In his recent speech of acceptance
Mr.. Lewis, Democratic candidate for
U. S. Senator in this State, referred
to Charles Evans Hughes as Leader
without a record" In recent editor
isl the Baltimore Sun says of Mr..
Hughes: BY his bold actions as
Governor of New York State Charles
E. Hughes gained the respect of the
vast body of American citizens, in
GLIDING those of Democratic faith. /"
Evidently 'Davie" Lewis does not get
in under that last clause. Which same
is not surprising. Evidently Mr..
Hughes did not gain the respect of
''Davie" by his great record as Cover
nor of New. York Evidently "Davie'
did not know Mr.. Hughes had a record,
which is not surprising. "Davie"
knows so many things which are not so,
that it is not surprising he should be in
entire ignorance of the things that are
se.'

ANOTHER $4,000 T0THs BORDER.

negotiations with CarranZa are now
forward. which will deal, preferably.
with the question of the withdrawal of
our troops from Mexico and the patroll-
ing of the frontier. The adminlstra-
tion has hopes, and has given out that
it intends, that the scope of the COM
missions deliberations shall ultimately
be made to include all the features of
the Mexican situation, even down to
the adjustment of claims and the pos
sible financing of the country's needs
by American bankers.
With this in prospect, the dispatch of
p, 900 additional National Guardsmen
to the frontier offers more food for
speculation as to whether the prospects
are real than for encouragement. The
logical deduction is that Washington
foresees a crisis that has no place in the
roseate picture of peace which has
been impressed upon the public by the
official announcements.
No doubt the enthusiasm with which
the National Guard modified for war
has faded into disappointment. But by
all accounts patrol duty along the border
is as deadly monotonous as camp duty
in Kentucky or Vermont; and there, as
in the North, training and drilling form
the chief elements in the days work.
The evidence is that the main object of
the moment-protection of the border
is secured more by the show of force
than by actual.patrol activities. Unless
news has has been unwarrautedly and
and mysteriously suppressed, the men
now at the frontier are doing all that
the frontier requires. Here and there,
perhaps, a bandit has made his ap-
pearance; but certainly disorder has not
obviously been SO rampant of late that
reinforcement of our troops by a full
25, 600 is demanded for its suppression.
But it is possible that between Car
ranza's preferably" and the Admins
tration's ultimate hopes and inten-
tions" aschasm is appearing which only
return to thesresoluteness of attitude
indicated in the American note of June
20 can bridge. Or it may be that the
"platitudes and vaporizing" of Mr.
Hughes, and their reception by his
audiences have been appreciated more
nearly at their true value by Mr.. Wilson
than by some of MIR. Wilson'S support
ers. At any rate, the American people
will not feel satisfied with solution of
the Mexican situation that guarantees
nothing but the protection of such
American life or American property as
is confined within the territorial limits
of the United States. If the presence
of $4,000 additional men on the frontier
means that Carranza is to be impressed
with the resolve not to accept this lmi-
tation, or if the men are being sent
there in preparation for getting what
we want, with or without Carranza's
consent, " e could wish 50, 600 instead
of 25, 600 had been ordered to go.

A six inch ridge of dirt had been thrown

Twenty feet away there was a row
