of work that is not bringing in a rea-
sonable profit. He should keep accu-
rate account of his expenses and in
come, so that he may know what every
head of livestock and ev.ry acre cf
his land is realizing for him. If our
farmers would do this, | believe they
would IND that from one-half to two
thirds of the things they are now do
ing are being at a loss" He con-
cluded with the statement that. al
though the Western Maryland Rail
road is u large taxpayer, none of its
taxes were more cheerfully paid than
those which went toward the equip
ment of the Maryland State College of
Agriculture for promoting the agri-
cultural interests of the State, Of
which the College was the logical CEN
ter.
Following the address of President
Gray, Robert Grain, of the Board of
Trustees. who was nominated at Far
mers' Day last year to represent the
farmers present in securing adequate
support for the Agricultural College,
gave a comprehensive and very salts
factory account of the progress made
at the late session of the Legislature.
He reported every branch of the work
of the College as being provided with
better facilities for carrying on its
work, and that more far-reaching than
any financial provision, We're the acts
which provided for the re-organiza-
ton of the Agricultural College under
a new Board of Trustees and its CO.
ordination with State Board of Ag-
riculture under which all the agricul-
tural agencies of the State had been
consolidated. Mr.. Grain paid es-pec-
ial tribute to the Sommittee of the
Affiliated Agricultural Organizations
organized by the Maryland Agricul-
tural Society and the Maryland State
Grange. of which S. M. Shoemaker, of
Baltimore county. was chairman. His
tribute to Mr.. Shoemaker and the
committee which worked with him
aroused great enthusiasm. He COM
mended the active interest being taken
by Governor Harrington, in seeing to
it that the members of the new Board
should be men of the broadest expert
ence and with strong agricultural in
terests. He said. 81 have no reason
to believe that Governor Harrington
will not do his full duty in this parti-
cular. If he helped pass these laws,

Col, Geo. NJ. SIiney, formerly
adjutant general of the Wyoming
National Guard and a man who
has the courage of his convictions,
does not mince matters in his
condemnation of the attitude of
the Wilson administration toward
naturalized citizens in making an
order excluding them from cer-
tain naval service. He believes,
and rightly, that hundreds of
thousands of our most able and
honorable citizens are of foreign
birth. We have had ~naturalized
citizens who have even reached

Cheyenne, Wyo., Oct. 20-Hon.
Leslie M. Shaw, when in Chey-
enne one day this week, gave the
following interview to the Pub
licity Bureau of the r publican
State Committee:
81 have campaigned in fifteen
states and l am convinced that
the paramount issue of this cam
paign is the payroll after the
war. That branch of the case has
been received by my audiences
from Maine, south to North Caro-
lima and as far vest as this, with
greater interest than any other
subject discussed. Few people
realize that the United States, pri-
or to the war, was paying out as
much in wages as all of the rest
of the world, and the farmer was
receiving a large share of this en-
ormous wage in payment for food
products, and the other part went
for clothing and other supplies
produced by men who in turn had
to be fed. In other words the
prosperity of the United States
rests on its payroll That it may
continue after the war ~necessi-
tates the repeal of the Underwood

Judge Carey on Stump.

The announcement from state
democratic headquarters that
Judge Carey would take the stump
for Keudrick and Clark was no
surprise to those who have fol-
lowed the course of political ev-
ents for a quarter of a century.
Ia national politics he had a
strong leaning to the republican
cause. He wanted the republican
nomination for governor in 1910,
but did not get it, SO took the
democratic nomination. Since
that time he has trained with the
democrats. This year be is work
ing for Gov. Kendrick and John
d. Clark. His inclination in ma
tional politics is unquestionably
from the heart, as he is a protec-
ZIONIST, a single standard gold
man, and one who believes in a
strong foreign policy. On the
other hand, Gov. Kendrick gave
him strong support at the time he
ran for governor, supported him
steadfastly in the Legislature and
deferred to his wishes in making
practically all of his appointments,
hence he is under deep obliga-
tons to the present governor.
AT the same time he has the old
open sore that will never heal.
All his envy, hatred, spleen and
spite are excited to the steenth
degree when one of the congress-
ional delegation is up for election,
On the one hand he votes princi-
pie; on the other hand he votes
hatred and revenge. In the even
ing of life it is really pitiable to
see a strong mans mind torn and
bleeding through the ravages of
malevolence and the baser side of
the intellect.

morally certain to elect Mr..
Hughes; we are by no GER
tain of electing ten out of a pos
sible eleven republican senators
necessary to the control of that
body. Without question, | think
Wyoming has the strongest dele
cation of any state in the Union
of no larger population. When
the republican party controls the
United States Senate, whether it
be now or two years hence, assum-
ing that Mr.. CLARK is reelected,
Wyoming will have the chairman
ship of the Judiciary Committee
and the Committee on Appropri-
atoms in the Senate. This is an
honor which has never before
gone to a single state and it is
within the reach of Wyoming
only because for twenty years
her people have been wise enough
to continue two able men in the
senate. l should consider the de-
feat of Senator Clark a real cal
amity.

Kendrick Violated Corrupt Practice Act

From the United States statutes, act of August 10, 1911:
"No candidate for representative in Congress Or for Senator of the I'm
tied States shall give, contribute, expend, use or promise, or cause to be
given, contributed, expended, used or promised, i'll procuring his nomination
and election, any sun, in the aggregate, in exces of the amount which he
may lawfully give, contribute, expend IT promise under the laws of the
state nw which he resides"
What the Wyoming Laws Says.
From the session laws of Wyoming, 19l1-Corrupt practices at,s sec
tnn l:
No sums of money shall be paid and n expenses authorized or incurred
by or on behalf Of any office, including senators of the United States, is
Or from the state in excesso of twenty per cent of one years salary II com
pensation of the office to which he seeks to be elected.
The Salary of a United States Senator is $500
The sworns statement of John B. Kendrck, filed in Washington in pr-
suance OF law January 25 1918, for expenses incurred during the senatorial
election campaign of 1917, .shows a n expenditure of
$8,344.66.
Would Protect Poor Man.
The Wyoming statute contains a corrupt practice act which provides a
severe penalty for any violation of the act.
The object is to safeguard elections and make it possible for a DOC man
to compete on something like equal terms with a rich man for political
office.
Governor Kendhck has never explained to the people of Wyoming his
violation OF the federal and state statute Gin 1912.
Twenty per cent of $500 is Sl,50O. Mr. Kend rick acknowledged he
spent Ss,34466 in 1912 lin trying to be elected United States senator.
Will Governor Kendrck observe observe the law above referred to in
his present camp tRn for United States senator, or will he place Senator C.

 The like of the battle has never been witnessed before on local courts, 1t is believed.
