Judge CIagett Makes An Excellent
Suggestion.

Mr.. EDITOR democrats candl
dates are numerous in this county
which, ordinarily, would be {
healthy sign. There are certain
facts, however, which merit con-
sideration. In 1913, all the Dem
ocratic candidates in this county
were elected. In 1918, all but three
were elected. In 1917, however,
all but two of the Republican cam
didates won. The question natur-
ally arise: What is the trouble
| with the Democratic party in this
county ? What is the use of saying
that all is well, if all is far from
we'll ? Old key notes appear to be
out of date, and old shibboleths
utterly ineffective. Unusual con-
ditions require unusual remedies.
My humble suggestion is that
the State Central Committee name
ten representative Democrats from
each of the the Election districts,
and have them meet in an old
fashioned conference, or conven-
ton, if you please, on some sulta-
BILE day, say the 4th OF July, and
have full, frank and open discus
sion OF party affairs. Let the rank
and file be heard from.
If complaints are unfounded and
imaginary, those who have been IN
charge of affairs should explain what
the real situation is. If mistakes
have been made, same should be
frankly confessed and amended.
Let the people know where the
party stands. If new Legislation
is needed on matters most vital to
the people, same should be definite
ly promised and put in shape be-
fore the Legislature meets. 1t the
State Central Committee declines
to call such a conference, then, l
suggest, that the Democratic vo-
tiers assemble at the various polling
places on the Saturday afternoon
before July 4th, and select the
delegates, but the State Central
Committee ought to act. 1t may be
claimed that such a conference
ought to be held until the primaries.
but, as l have said, unusual condi-
tons require unusual remedies.
If there must be house clean
ing, let it come from within and
not from without. And then. II
after every thing is done that is
humanity possible to be done-the
old party of Jefferson, of Jackson,
of Cleveland and of Wilson, the
party of Oden Bowie and of Barnes
Compton, and of men of that type,
is still destined to go down in
defeat, let us go down together,
like George Weems Williams,
bravely, with flags flying and with
no cause for regrets.

Partnership must make Returns

Hon. Joshua w. Miles, Collector o.
Internal Revenue, has issued state
ment calling attention to the fact thai
under the present Income Tax Law al
partnerships are required to make re-
turn of income regardless of the amount
of gross or net income.
This return must be made on blank
form furnished by the Collectors office
and known as Form 1865.
This is new feature of the Income
Tax law and Collector Miles issues this
statement at this time in order that all
persons liable to file partnership return
may be apprized of the necessity for
doing so. He Said.
Partnership as such are not subject
to taxation under statute, but indlvidu-
ais carrying on business in partnership
are taxable upon their distributed shares
of the net income of such partnerships,
whether distributed or not, and requir-
ed to include such distributive shares in
their returns.
The larger business concerns are pro-
badly aware of the necessity of filing the
the partnership return, but it is the
great number of small concerns which
l fear will fail to file this statement be-
cause the necessity therefor is unknown
to such concerns
These returns must be filed in the
office of the Collector of Internal Rev
enue at Baltimore, Maryland, not later
than June 18th. Every premiership
without regard to the amount of its
gross or net income, should apply to
the Collectors office promptly for a
blank form upon which to file it's return.

Little Game To Be Distributed

Maryland will receive little or nc
game at all for distribution for prop
! agation purposes this season. accord
ing to the statement made last week by
State Game Warden F. Lee LeCompte
at meeting of the Maryland State
Game and Fish Protective Association,
at the New Howard Hotel. Mr.. Lee
Compile told of the trip which he made
to Mexico in quest of bob white quail and
cotton-tail rabbits, but informed the
members of the association that owing
to the continued drought for the past
three years game has become more and
more scarce, until now it is almost i'm
possible to secure game on large
scale.
Practically all of the leading game
centers in Mexico were visited by
Warden LeCompte. but without re-
suits. He stated that he visited sec
tons were jack rabbits were plenti-
full in former years, but was unable to
secure any this season, most of the
trappers having abandoned trapping
for the season In fact importations
of game from Mexico into this country
have been very small. and Maryland
will have TO suffer in this respect al
long with other states throughout tn e
Union that are also endea toring to re-
plenish their stock.
Warden LeComte has recommended
to the Conservation Commission ap-
game wardens, thus. giving more pro-
lection to the game in the future than
here tofore.

In Memoriam.

In sad but loving remembrance of nv
dear husband, and our father, Bergilla
Dustin, who departed this life eight
years ago, May IL, 1911.
Though suffering, he breathed no

For the Comforter stood by his side,
And whispered, Gear not, I'm with
thee,
With me thou shalt ever abide.

Then from earth and its sorrow he

Across to the beautiful shore.
