FARMERS IGNORED
BY REPUBLICANS
But Democratic Administration
Quickly Gave Them Justice
in Rural Credits.

Don't forget Mr.. Farmer, that
gress, National Grange, National
Farmers Union, American Society Of
Equity, and similar organizations you
have for years demanded and have
importuned Republican administra-
tons for legislation you needed.
WHAT DID YOU GET7
Through all the years since 1864
the Republican Party was deaf and
blind to the farmers financial needs.
This in the face of the fact that sue
cessfuI systems of Rural Credits were
in operation throughout Europe for
century. When this great Democratic
measure was put to vote in the Sem
ate on May a, 1916, only five Re-
pubIicans dared vote against it! Three
of them were on the subcommittee
who wrote the Republican Platform
of 1916.
Was it because you We're not Big
interests? You were, many of you,
highly financed, and High Finance
held the mortgage-and to that extent
you belonged to High Finance. But
you paid big interest to associate with
Big Interests. A stack of wheat
wasn't as good collateral as a sheaf
Of scraps of paper held by a stock
gambler. Nor did the Political Bosses
of the Republican Party care to
give you financial justice. They were
too busy protecting" themselves.
THE PROMISES OF THE DEMO-
CRATIC PLATFORM OF 1912 -
written in courage and honesty and
with sympathetic understanding of
the needs of every honest American
interest-HAVE BEEN KEPT.
The Republican Party refused to do
these things, which the prosperity of
the American Farmer required.
The Republican presidential candi-
date, Charles E. Hughes, denounces
the Democratic party and President
Wilson for having done these things.
Where Does Your Interest Lie?

the Democratic National COmmittee.)

THE BUDGET

: Upon the ballots this fall, IN
addition to the names of the can
didates, and the license question
in the wet units of the State,
the voters will find the words:
constitutional amendment pro-
viding for a budget, with squar-
es in which to vote for or against
the amendment. All votes should
be cast in the affirmative.
The budget is not a political
question. Both parties declared
in favor Of it in their platforms
last fall, and the fact that the
commission that prepared the
bill was named by Democrats is
merely because that party was
successfulin the election. There
is nothing of a partisan charac
ter about it, for it embodies SIM
ply plain business common sense.
If any business man or firm goes
ahead and spends money without
knowing the amount of his in
come, the end is pretty sure to
be insolvency. But this is just
what the State of Maryland has
been doing, with the result that
the deficiency is nearly two mil
lion dollars. To prevent such
poor management in the future,
the budget system was planned,
but it requires an amendment to
the Constitution to make it effec-
tive. This must be adopted by
the voters.
It may be explained briefly
that it requires the Governor, at
every session Of the Legislature,
to submit to that body a schedule
Of the appropriations required
for the next two years and the
anticipated amount of the States
revenues for the same period.
The Legislature may not make
additional appropriations without
at the same time making provi-
lions by tax for their payment.
This plan seems so eminently
reasonable and sensible t h a t
many persons may be unwilling
to believe that it is not now fol-
lowed. That it is not is the case.
however, as the rule has been
for the Legislature to appropri-
ate money right and left with
out the slightest idea of where
it was to come from.

IF THE G. O. P. ELEPHANT
COULD SPEAK THE TRUTH
VOTERS of the q. S. A

VOTERS of the q. S. A.
We, the Republican party, being at
our wits end and desperate, put II
up to you:
For nearly four years now a Demo-
cratic Administration has been III
power Contrary to every law or
reason, every principle of progress,
the country is at peace and alive,
nay, humming with prosperity. Busl-
ness is rushing. Wages are high. The
only discomfort is the discomfort OF
those who are reaching for bigger
chunks of plenty.
We are f1abbergasted. All this has
happened during a period when the
rest of the world has been agog, when
international crises were impending
on all sides, when we would have
sworn only Republican craftsmanship
could pull the nation through.
No war has engulfed us. No panic
has paralyzed us. No nation has
with impunity continued to infringe
upon our rights.
We can't deny what has been done.
All we can do is take our oath we
could have done it better. How, we
do not know. II only we said it loud
and long enough we hoped the coun-
try would believe us.
But the country is busy and our
voices grow hoarse. We are having a
hard time.
Woodrow Wilson has nothing to
show but what he has accomplished.
He has none of the glamour Of the
What-might-be. We, on the contrary,
have our old promises and policies,
mellOWed by age, but still bearing
the stamp of the nations solid inter-
ests. Protection, privilege, govern
ment by intiuence-surely the country
has not given them their last trial
Wall street is with us. Big bust
ness is with US. But o, Voters, we
confess it, we need you. Don't keep
looking at the peace and prosperity
around you. Try to get our point of
view. Whatever Wilson has done, the
man is a Democrat, and neither Fed
eral Government nor Federal offices
were meant to be forever in such
hands.
Let's forget issues and talk as
friends. Turn him out and give us
a chance!

PRAISES WILSON'S STAND
IN BEHALF OF SUFFRAGE

The action of the National
Suffrage Association at Atlantic
City, n. j., in rejecting by an
overwhelming vote the proposal
to make the suffrage movement
a partisan annex of the Republi-
can campaign, was further EN-
phasized by DR.. Anna Howard
Shaw, 1.-The sage of suffrage" in
an interview published in the
Philadelphia Press, a staunch
Republican organ.
THE President, in his speech
to the convention, promised all
he could carry out" said DR..
Shaw. eff he had promised
more we would have known that
he could not carry it out.
Not the Republicans alone,
nor the Democrats alone, can
bring suffrage. If it could be
done that way l would favor it.
But it can't. We must get
enough Democrats and Republi-
cans together to do it."
