son run from Oct. 10Th, to Jan. 31st,

Repeal of the daylight saving Act
was accomplished last week, the
Senate voting to sustain the House
in passing the repeal measure over
President Wilson's veto. The vote
was 81 to 10.
The repeal of the law which now
takes its place among the very few
which have been passed over Pres
idential veto, becomes effective after
the clocks are turned back to normal
in October. 1t will go down in
legislative history as one of the very
few measures which have twice been
vetoed by a President and became a
law after all by the vote OF more
than two-thirds in both Houses OF
Congress.

The Democratic campaign of this
year is preliminary to that of 1925
when United States senator will be
elected to succeed John Walter
Smith. AS now viewed by Demo
cratic politicians, the contest for the
nomination for this honor will be
between Senator Smith and former
Senator Blair Lee, whose son is "a
candidate for state comptroller, says
the Baltimore American.
1t Is by no means certain that
Senator Smith will again be candi-
date, but until he comes out with a
definite declaration on his intentions
for next year his candidacy for a
third term in the Senate will be &c,
cepted by his friends and foes as a
foregone conclusion.
From former Senator Blair Lee
there has been no declaration that
he will make another effort to return
to the Senate. Since the expiration
of his term in 1917 he has passed the
greater part of his time at his home
at Silver Spring, Montgomery coun.
ty. The former Senator declared
while the Great War was in progress
that politics should be eschewed and
that the whole country should de-
vote its energies 10 winning victory.
Since the close of war there has been
no political contest to attract his
activities.

The rapid decrease or shad and
herring on their natural spawning
beds in Maryland waters is becoming
alarming according to reports sub
mitted to the Conservation Commits
sion by J. P. Snyder, acting superin
tendent of the United States bureau
of Fisheries. Although cities and
industrial plants for many years
have turned sewerage, acids and ak
allies into our bays and rivers and
these undoubtedly affect the per-
petuation of shad and herring as
well as other fish, the advent of the
use of pound nets in large numbers
along the lanes through which shad
and herring must pass in their NIL
grations from the ocean to fresh
water, marked the beginning of the
rapid decline in the number of these
fish found on their spawning beds,
and it is to the lax laws permitting
these nets that is ascribed the threat
ened humiliation of these fish.

Another Lie of the Vets Nailed.

Another Lie of the Vets Nailed.
The liquor interests, opposing en-
forcement of law passed by 45-48
of the Union, have attempted to
alarm the tobacco-using prohibition
lists in Congress and out by false
story asserting that certain promi-
nent prohibition organizations, par
ticularly the w. c. T. u, are work
ing for constitutional amendment
for the prohibition of tobacco.
This statement is wholly in
error" says Mrs. Lenna Lowe Yost,
Legislative Superintendent of the w.
C. T. u. ST such a movement were
ON foot in the w. c. T. U. would
certainly know of it. We are not
working for constitutional amend
ment prohibiting tobacco"
The method by which these fakes
are worked is interesting. First,
the bald assertion is put out that the
w. C. T. U. is working for consti-
tutional amendment to prohibit to-
bacco and an attempt is made to
time it at critical moment in the
consideration of enforcement iegis-
lation with an evident hope that it
will do its injury before it can be
contradicted. Then some statement
by w. C. T. U. official is "pied'
until it does not make good sense
and printed under some such head as
"W. C. T. U. Admits Tobacco Prohi-
bition Movement" Next, wet papers
are induced to print editorials under
such heads as Tobacco Next?" in
which methods of heading off the
new prohibition movement are
gravely discussed.
The trouble with this Kind of fake
propaganda is that there is consider

Lawful To Shoot Squirrels Aug. 25
To Oct. 4.
The SQUIRREL season for the State
of Maryland in most of the Counties
opened on Monday, August rs, and
closes again on October LIST. Anne
Arundel, Talbot, Charles, Prince
Georges and Calvert Counties, do
not open their Squirrel season until
November 10, and closes December
"a. Dorchester County opens their
season, September l to January l..
The bag limit is 10 squirrels.
All persons hunting for Squirrels
ON Aug. Is or after will be required
to have their license, and the Deputy
Wardens are instructed to arrest any
person found hunting without a
license, and take them Immediately
before Justice of the Peace where
they will undoubtedly be fined SIS
and costs.
Dove Season:
There seems to be some misunder-
standing throughout the State, as to
the opening of the Dove season. The
State Law opens the season on Doves
on August Is, but the Federal Gov
eminent has included the Dove in
the list of Migratory birds this sea-
son, and does not permit their kill
ing in, the State of Maryland, until
the first day of September; although
persons shooting Doves between
August Is and September / are not
liable under the State Law, they
would subject themselves to prose-
cution by the Federal authorities.
United States Deputy Game Wardens
have brought to trial 125 cases and
secured conviction in over 100,
under the Treaty provisions with
Canada and Great Britain. The re-
naming number of these cases are
either pending or there was lack
of evidence to convict.
The Judge of the District Court in
Kansas, who ruled that the old
Migratory Bird Law was unconsti-
tutional, has held that the present
Treaty regulations are constitutional
and has given verdict in favor of
the United States in two cases, which
were before his Court, and promi-
nent citizen of that State has been
heavily fined for shooting game con-
trary to the Federal Law.
Reed and Rail Bird Season.
The season for Reed Birds and
Rail Birds opens September /. The
reports as to these birds, are, that
they have arrived in considerable
numbers, and that shooting will be
good. License of course is neces-
sary, and the bag limit on each bird
is SO per day.
State Wide Hunting License.
All persons, excepting landown-
ers, their tenants or children while
hunting on their own or leased
land,--must have license to hunt.
Nonresident of Maryland pays
$10.25. Resident statewide license,
$50. Resident county license,
$1.1O. Nonresident land owner of
property in county assessed at $500
or over pays $1.10. Guests of land
owners must have license.

WILSON SUCCEEDS
 SMITH, IS RUMOR
 IN THE CAPITAL
Former Representative from Mobile County Likely to Be Next Insurance
 Commissioner

Montgomery, May 10.-(Special)-A rointment of W. K. B. Wilson, former representative in the legislature from Mobile county, as state insurance com missioner to succeed c. Brooks Smith, whose term expires in July, is reported unofficialy in Montgomery Saturday. Mir. Wilson is in the insurance business Iii Mobile, and is said to have been one of the governors strongest supporters in the Gulf City. Governor Kilby has made no mention of the person he will name to take the place of Mir. Smith, who is making plans to leave the capitoi when his term expires
 Other changes in the insurance depart ment also are contemplated. William P. Fonville, state fire marshal and candiz date for secretary in the last primary election, will be succeeded by Conrad w. Austin of Birmingham, according to in formation from the Magic City. Mir. Aus tin several weeks ago announced pub lically that he was planning to come to Montgomery during the summer to become fire marshst At present he is doing some special and important inves- tigating work at the courthouse of Jeff
 
 It has not been stated officially wheth. CT Frank Sanford, deputy insurance commissioner, will stay at the building. MT Sanford is considered efficient and hard worker. He has said nothing about the changes to take place along about the time the legislature convenes again in July for 30-day grind.
 MT. Wilson represented his county in the famous 1915 legislature. Since that time his friends say he has changed his politics and was a strong supporter or the present governor. Whether the re- port he will be named insurance com missioner is true or not the rumoSs he will be named are going the rounds in Montgomery MT. Wilson was in Mont gomery several days ago.
 When the office of insurance commits sioner is filled the governor will have placed men in all the important offices in the capitol since he was inaugurated in January. The board of control has been created and officers of that depart ment are now buying things necessary to properly run the state government. The insurance department is one of the most important at the state building. So far as revenue. is concerned the de- partment ranks along with the leaders, including the convict department, the biggest revenue producing department of them all
