l advert again to the fact that while
! we have not that most important dem
ocratic reform, the Initiative, in Mary
land, we have at least the Referendum.
While we have paralyzing system of
taxation, we are at least free to cor
rect it by the substitution of a better
one. While we have corrupt elections
it is within the power of our electors to
correct materially this system by tax
/ ing advantage Of the lessons certain
other states offer to teach US.
Above and beyond all else we must
have, and believe we are commencing
to have, an awakening interest in the
democracy of the people. | am the
more encouraged to believe this by the
welcome the press of Maryland has
given to these letters and the evidence
the public has offered of interest in
their subject-matter.
The road to reform, however, is
never anleasY one. 1t will on the part
of those promoting it call for self de-
NAL ard determination. If the people
of Maryland are worthy of enjoyment
of more enlightened conditions there
must be within our borders a sufficient
number Of men willing to sacrifice to
bring them. about. Hope of selfish ad-
vantage.such men must lay ASIDE. To
them must be applicable the words of
Burke when ne SAID i know the map
| of England as well as the honorable
gentleman here, and | know full we'll
/ the road take is not the road to pre-
ferment." To such there can only be
offered an encouragement like unto that
Garibaldi gave his followers. He said
in substance, 81 can offer you hunger,
! poverty, rags, sickness, wounds and
victory"
Ouriforty- eight states need to be or
gained upon thoroughly democratic
basis. E. One-third of them have taken
great steps in this direction. My per-
sonal ambition is that Maryland should
not be follower but leader in this
procession. When the knowledge of a
real democracy has permeated the
people of the individual states and
their practices shall have become con-
formable to their information and
theories, then we may believe that our
| general government, Tor so many years
| tending to become autocratic and often
outside of popular control. will learn
| from the States, and thereafter we will
pursue a forward march lnteliigently
/ democratic in both nation and state In
what we may do, therefore we shall be
building not merely for ourselves but
for the nation at large.
From decade to decade in one way or
another our dreams become realities.
"Our dreamers have dreamed it the
shadow of dream,
/ Our sages have dreamed it a bubble on
the stream;
Yet our Kingdom draweth higher with
each dawn and every day."
| | would appeal especially to the
young men to make a study of real
democratic government. They have
yet hopes and aspirations, born of an
unselfsh desire for the public good.
Great possessions have not paralyzed
them. Their minds have not yet closed
against the entry of unusual if not
novel ideas. They have the will to &C.
complish if only the way be shown. To
them the we'll grounded ideal is. as in
truth it is. the practical thing, and from
their ideaIism reduced to concrete form
must come the salvation of the State.

the possibilities of meeting a German
submarine or a German raider. The
