TIE PRIMARY ELECTION

The primary election. to be held on
Monday next, May list. involves the choice
Of Maryland Democrats for candidate for
President Of the United States, for a mem
Der Of the United States Senate and six
members Of the National House Of Repre-
sentatives.
There is now no room for doubt that
President Wilson's name will be the only
one submitted to the voters Of his party.
and his denomination is a foregone conclu-
sion.
For the Senate three gentlemen are con-
testing for the Democratic nomination. and
in this the Sixth Congressional District two
gentlemen are aspiring to Congressional
honors. The importance Of these Offices.
the nature and bearing Of the domestic
measures now being aeitated. and the
delicacy and danger Of conflict involved
in the international questions which now
engage public attention. demand from our
citizens the utmost attention in choice
Of their candidates. Local considerations
and fractional prejudices should be subor-
dinated to the general welfare. In the
world crisis through which we are now
passing. we need men Of knowledge, in
teIligence and patriotism, men of poise
and reflection, without fads and above the
small politics that shame us at any time
and would be a crime in the exisencies of
the hour.
Let us remember that for the conse-
quences of the primary election the people
who do the voting are responsible. Poll
ticians will be always solicitous in their
own behalf and not above the arts and
practices which tend to obscure the real
issues Of campaign. Watchfulness on
the part Of voters is the only safeguard
against those arts and practices, and it
behooves US now, more than at any time
in recent years, to vote for the best and
most capable men as the persons in whom
we can best place our trust and confidence.

Idle Men.

There would be no shortage Of labor in
the Middle West during this period of un-
precedented industrial activity and bust
ness prosperity" said j. NJ Davis. general
manager Of the Baltimore and Ohio lines.
at Cincinnati. upon completing an inspec-
ton Of the property. IF the idle men who
have no visible means Of support would 60
70 work"
During the trip through the territory Mr..
Davis learned. he said. from the business
men Of practically every community visited
that the greatest difficulty confronting
them is the inability to employ forces
sufficiently large to fill orders in contract
time. yet within a few miles Of manufac-
turing plants are to be seen groups of
men engaged in idle discussion or plan
ming law violations in preference to join
ing the army Of wage-earners.
The problem Of distributing labor ac-
cnrdiRg TO requirements in many Of the
larger industrial centers is so serious that
General MANAGER Davis and other officials
Of the Baltimore and Ohio have proffered
their assistance to public officials in secur-
ing work in manufacturing and railroad
situations for unemployed men. Letters
have been addressed to local authorities
informing them Of desire on part of the
railroad to assist in furnishing employ
ment. while those in charge of plants Of
various kinds In the cities and towns
served by the Baltimore and Ohio lines
have been asked to keep the railroad ad-
vised of their labor needs The letters
point out that the railroad, being inter
ested in the social and economic advance
ment Of its communities. prefers to furnish
employment to local labor instead Of i'm
porting men for transportation service.
and 1t is anxious to assist industries in
applying the same principle.
while complaints are heard everywhere
about scarcity of labor" Mr.. Davis con-
tinued, "there has been no noticeable de-
crease In the number of men travelling
unlawfully over the railroads; and the
store-box social in the middle of the after
noon has lost none Of its popularity re-
gardless Of the opportunities offered by
American industries for earning high
wages.
"0n a recent daylight trip from Toledo
to Cincinnati counted 1902 able-bodied
men riding contrary to law on the freight
and passenger trains of the Cincinnati
Hamilton and Dayton Railway. while in
any prosperous community like Dayton
Hamilton, Lima or a dozen others twice
this number Of men could have found
steady employment.
what is true of the labor situation in
manufacturing centers is also true Of farm
ing districts. Farmers report to our rail
road representatives a scarcity of help fo
blowing and spring planting of crops
The scarcity Of farm labor will be realized
from the experience in communities ad
jacent to our lines that were unable las
fan to employ labor to dig the potato AM
sugar beet crops before cold weather de
stroyed them"

A Bryauless Convention.

Washington dispatch in the Philadelphia
Record says: For the first time since
VIM. J. Bryan talked himself into Demo-
cratic Presidential nomination at Chicago.
twenty years ago. he will be neither leader
nor disturber in a national convention.
The returns from Nebraska. indicating the
certain defeat Of Bryan for delegate-at-
large. leave him no opening to sound war
cry at St. Louis, in the opinion of officials
and members Of the National Committee.
1T Is understood that when President
Wilson was informed Of the probable de-
feat of Bryan for delegate-at-laree, he ex-
pressed the hope that some way might be
found to permit the participation Of his
former Secretary Of State in the convention,
and that the fullest opportunity be given
him TO free his mind Of any criticism Of
the Administration or suggestion for the
party platform. The convention rules do
not provide for proxy representation or
substitution. but Bryans friends will try
TO find a way"
