VERY INTERESTING OLD
DOCUMENTS FOUND.
In Looking Over Papers Mr.. A. j.
Foble Finds Documents Nearly Il
Century Old-NIasonic Address De-
Iiyered i'm 1925 One of Them.

While looking over some papers
that have been in the possession OF
his family for a great many years,
Mr.. Andrew ]. Foble recently found
an address delivered by the late John
R. Pitts before Cambridge Lodge, No.
| 66. Ancient Free and Accepted Ma
sons, in the Christ Protestant Epis-
copal Church, this city, on June 21,
1925, the subject being an Exhlbl-
ton of the General Principles OF Ma
sonry. The address was dedicated to
the late Josiah Bayly. father OF the
late DR.. Alexander Bayly, the father
of Messrs. A. Hamilton and Edgar
Bayly, of this city. The address was
printed in The Cambridge Chronicle
since succeeded by The Banner
which was at that time edited Dy
the late Luther M. Scott.
1t was a mastery explanation OF
the principles of Masonry, and was
couched in language that was not on
ly clear and concise, but which was
also a model of pure English as well.
Another interesting document
which Mr.. Foble found was a cata-
logue of the Cambridge Female Acad-
envy, published in 1867, and con-
tanning a list of the officers OF the
school, and also of the students en-
rolled. Rev. r. j. Cone, y. M, was
principal; Mrs. R. ]. Cone, associate
principal; and the teachers were Mr..
and Mrs. Cone, Miss Axable and
Mrs. e. Jackson. The names of 54
pupils were published, but as the
publication at this time of their
names might prove embarrassing on
account of disclosing the ages of
number of the ladies, they will not
be published in this issue.

The Baltimore Chamber of Com
merce succeeded in proving to the
satisfaction of the Interstate Com

more, Chesapeake and Atlantic Rail
way Comany's steamers were being
operated in violation of the law. The
Commission issued an order to the
Company to suspend business, but,
apparently, the Chamber of Com
merce had never realized that it
would be necessary to have some
means of hauling freight between
Baltimore and the Eastern Shore, and
in a panic they asked for a suspen-
sion of the order. Baltimore bust
ness men did not think enough of the
proposition to put their money into
Company to purchase and operate
the steamers. The Interstate Com
merce Commission suspended the rul
ing, the B., G. e A. was allowed to
continue operating the boats, and
now the passenger and freight rates
are to be increased. Oh, no, it does
not cost Baltimore penny; the peo-
pie served by the steamers pay the
bills.

a. COM M ERclAL
BOOM FRANC,

When the millions of men now fight
ing are mobolized by industry, as they
surely will be when peace comes, there
may ensue the bitterest struggle for
world markets ever known. The rich
est country in the world, and conse.
quently the most profitable market, is
the United States. Foreign manufac
turers, it is expected, will strive DIES.
perately to drive our own manufac-
turers out of our domestic market.
They will dump" goods into this
country in enormous volume, at less
than they can be produced for here
at less than 1t actually costs to pro-
duce them abroad. Then, IL they sue
coed In running our Industries, they
will raise their prices and exploit us
ad libitum. They have done 1t in the
past on a small scale; they will try IL
hereafter on huge scale.
And here is an interesting fact in
that connection. Joseph e. Davies,
chairman of the federal trade commits
sion, points out that this menace is
merely case of chickens come home
to roost." He says:
1.-THE nations OF the earth who have
preceded us by enacting protective
laws against dumping did 1t openly to
protect themselves from American
trusts"
1t Ia a matter Of common knowledge
that the steel trust and many other
big American business institutions
have for years sold their products
cheaper abroad than at home, some.
times below the cost OF production. II
Germany, England and other industrial
nations engage in the threatened i'm.
moral business campaign, they will be
doing what we have taught them.
But we have reformed, in our do
nestle practice at least. We no longer
allow our business men to use this un.
fair device against each other And
so our manufacturers are asking why
we should allow foreigners TO use II
against them.
Anyhow, whatever our past sins may
have been, Il IA now proper and nsces.

MADE MEXICO TRUST

The following excerpt from the re-
port OF Bishop Francis ]. Mcconnell
for Mexico appeared in the Daily
Christian Advocate OF May 8:
Whatever may be said OF President
Wilson's Mexican policy, this much at
, least is true, that his policy has done
more to convince the Mexicans that
the United States does not want Mexi
CO. than have all our other Mexican
policies put together.
1T Is also fair to say that the stories
of outrages committed upon Ameri
cans In Mexico as the result of anti.
American spirit, are very greatly ex.
aggerated. Scores of Americans have
indeed been killed, but not because
they were Americans. After four trips
into the interior of Mexico and two to

able to learn of more than one Ameri.
can killed just because he was an
American, except those who have died

OUR NATIONAL
POLICE FORCE.

Congress seems strangely afraid of
an army of 100000 men. Apparently
to the average representative, such a
number spells militarism.
II that ia true, then our cities are
woefully militarized. An army of $780,
600 men is no larger compared with
the country's population than the DO
lice force of New York, Chicago and
other big cities. indeed, II Is likely
that most of our small cities have as
many as one pol cemaD to every 400
people. Certainly no city of any I'M
portance depends, for its municipal
peace and protection, on a police force
as small as one to 1000 of population.
That is the present ratio of the United
States army. and the result shows in
the present spectacle along the Mexi.
can border.
The army 10 intended to fulfill the
same function in the national organi
cation that the city police fulfill in the
municipal organization. What differ
ence there il consists chiefly In this
fact:
:, The city is seldom molested from
without, and needs peace officers only
for internal protection of its citizens
The nation, on, the contrary, Is modest
ed from without more than from with
in. An army of the size to which we
are accustomed can keep the peace
within our national domain, but it can
not be depended on today to do that
and at the same time safeguard us
against foreign criminals and enemies
