Anne Arundel county were introduced.
and from present indications there
will be none Tomorrow marks the
expiration of the time limit for intro
ductions, unless permission be given
by unanimous consent.
The Senate today is husily engaged
with the Governors Budget bill,
which embraces the appropriations for
State institutions that have for years
received state aid, and appropriations
for various state departments. to Gov
er increased salaries and expenses.
This was taken up shortly after the
Senate was convened al noon, and cf-
fort is being made to shave some OF
the times contained in the measure
On the House side more than ordi-
nary interest developed on Senator
Enpler's bill making certain modiiica-
tions and additions 10 the marriage
laws of the State. The bill came from
committee with a favorable report.
A amendment promptly presented by
Delegate Joseph, of Baltimore City.
provided that in securing licenses to

provoked quite a debate for a time,
but was finally adopted

The Senate after a day OF confer
ences back-tracked last night on all
that was done tn eprevious night, re-
considered the Wolfe amendment to
the Governors big road loan bill
and passed that measure to third
reading without change.
The motion to reconsider was made
by Senator Grason, and he, Senator'S
Harrison, Parran, Nuttle and others
changed their votes and the motion
was carried by a vote Of 20 to 6.
Senator Norris withdrew his amend

.COLLEGIANS READY
FOR OPENING GAME
St. Johns Cadets Will Hook Up
Saturday With Georgetown
At Washington
PROBABLE LINEUP OUT

With the opening game Of the sea-.
son but two days off, the date for
meeting Georgetown Uniyersity's nine
being set for Saturday. Coach Lentz.
OF st. Johns, has made a tentative
arrangement of his men which will
probtaH lie the positions in which
they will be played on the Washing
ton field. AS yet there are a few dis
puted places. for which more than
one candidate has shown up with ex-
ira good work. and in these positions
the Coach still has to make decisions.
but for the most part they are set
tied.
LeRtz announced the following
line-up this morning as being that
which will probably be pitted against
the Washingtonians: Porter, SIS;
Voelcker, IT,. Holland. 1b.; Batty. CT;
Fitzgerald. 2b.; Aldridge. r.f.; Ever
EFT or Whaley, 3b Ridgely or Veg
ner, c.; Roberts Custis. Knightos, or

II will lie seen that the greatest
number on the list for any one posi-
tion is that for the tox, which place
shows no chance of going begging
this season as it has sometimes done
In years past NOTWITHSTANDING the
large numt er Of aspirant twirlers
there is, one position that to all OBJ
servers is more closely contested by
the good work of candidates than
any other of the nine This is for
third base, where Whaley and Everett
are 10th showing speed and good
knowledge of the game The form of
each is very good, and they are not
unlike in their method of work. thus
giving double chance for speculation
as to who will win out fer the open
ing position Everett held the posi-
ton last year.
Porter's speed at short stop has
placed him in that position without
dangerous opponent. He seems to
have much of the native-born, and
does not spoil his work by gallery
play.
Practice yesterday consisted of five
innings of fast play. and all of the
thirty men who are out for the squad
were given tryouts, Twelve of this
thirty candidates are for the tattery.
They are Johnson. Wegner, Ridgely
and .Krkgen for catcher. and Knigh-
ton. Custis, Greenwell. Roberts.
Cockey. Birely. Webster and Kinhart
for pitcher. Custis and Knighton are
the only candidates for the place that
are left over from last year, when
Goth of them were second string men.
Only one position, mat of first base,
was left completely open from last
year. For this place there are two
men. out. Holland, who started base
ball last year but met with an in
Jury that laid him out for the balance
of the season, and White, new man.
Both of them promise we'll

Georgetown on Saturday will be a

Urges Defeat OF Those Who Have
Turned Their Backs On Labor
And The People Generally

yital to labor the republican party
platform makes no acknowledgment
IF hc right Of the workers to organ
ize into trade unions and to elect their
own representatives for consultation
and negotiation with employers.
Neither does the republican party
platform make any provision for the
protection of the workers against
unvarrantable use of the writ Of in
ilnction. The silence Of the platform
upon which Senator Harding stands
on the question of injunctons in in
dustrial disputes is most complete and
profound
The republican party platform in
terests itself in the question Of strikes.

dearly the interest Of those who are

ti.rs and the influence" of the public
opinion, the whole plank constituting
what labor has described as "a denial
of labor's demands" ana contemplat-
inc "the erection of government ma
chinory for the coercion Of labor and
for the suppression and limitation Of
its proper, lawful and normal aetivi-
tics" Senator Harding places him
self wholly in the spirit of such plat
form declarations when he says, Let
Us return to normally"
The high cost Of living is an issue
felt in every home in the United
States Step by step the cost Of Iv-

the armistice, and there is today no

for caution in industry is shown in a
statement issued by the department of
agriculture that grain dust explo-
sions cost so lives and S7000000 in

months last year tits stated that

Explosions have been traced to such

The department says the epidemic

BY Samuel Gompers

The two leading candidates for the
presidency have defined clearly their
tude toward the great public is
sues Of the day In a sentence each
has summed up his position
In effect Senator Harding says,
Let us return to normalcy.'
Governor Cox says, = am for pro-
2ross"
Senator Harding does not use the
word "normal;" he speaks Of nor
,aalcy.' The word is obsolete and so
is the condition to which he would
return
1Tnquestionably in the mind Of Sen
ator Harding a return to normal means
q return to the conditions that exist
I'd before the war-a return to some
ng that is past. Obviously it is
in possible to return to something that
is not past 1t is clear then that in
keeping with the spirit Of the repub-
mean platform Senator Harding's
personal desire is to follow a course
that leads backward, and if elected to
lead the nation in such course.
Governor Cox proclaims a desire to
20 forward and a determination to
lead the nation in a forward course if
he is elected to the presidency.
Roth of these statements are alb
sra ions, and Of themselves mean
nothing beyond definition Of the
general trend of thought of the can
didales The important fact is, how
ever, that the platforms Of the par
ties upon which these candidates
stand and their own personal philos-
ophies lead inevitably and naturally
10 to the conclusions found in those
NO brief utterances. Because that is
so it is fair to accept them as broad
though brief statements of general
policy
Harding says, I am for going back
ward.
Cox says, | am for going forward.
The platforms and the speeches Of
acceptance by the candidates have al
ready been analyzed by labor, but it
may serve some purpose again to call
attention to the principal points at is
s1e as found in these documents.
if it is Senator Harding's desire to
follow a public policy which leads
backward, and he has so expressed
himself, he will but have to "go along
v.th" the declarations of the plat
form of his party.
Insofar as concerns the issue most

 COURT DECLARES
Kansas Industrial Body Says U. s. Commission Made
 Big Error

Topeka, Kan, Oc t.9.-An asser tion that the Interstate Commerce commission made an apparent error of 192,853,696 in the calculation up- on which it fixed the freight rate increase on western roads to give the roads six per cent return is made in an opinion grantig modified 30 per cet increase in Kansas intrastate rates by the Kansas court of indus trial relations, handed down here at six o'clock this evening.
 The court submits table show ing that in the western district the percentage increase necessary to yield six per cent return the invest ment was 24.3 per cent. The table then shows that the interstate com merce commission allowed a freight increase of 35 per cent which would net $631 1854, 1895 or $192,853, ,696 above that necessary for the six per cent return.
 The statement adds:
 "The same calculation used in the eastern district shows an increase of 38,705 per cent of increase in freight rates to be necessary and 40 per cent increase was ordered by the In- terstate Commerce commission. Tn the southern district this calculation shows an increase of 24.53 per cent in freight rates and 25 per cent was ordered"

We want to be fair with one another and we do not want any future president to be sub jected, as MT. Wilson has been to a campaign of personal hate. That was what animated Germany. It is not the American way. It will die on November second. At the same time will die Senator Harding's attempt to make separate peace with those who tried to put the hymn of hate above the free chorus of mankind"
