Baltimore Eighth City In Population.


Figures given out by the Census
Bureau in Washington show that
Baltimore ranks eighth in population
of the cities of the United States.
This is one point lower than it was
in the census of 1910, when it rank
ed seventh.
Cleveland, which passed Baltimore
in 1910, still outranks that city, with
a population about $4,000 in excess
of Baltimore Baltimore's retirement
to eighth place is due to the phenom-
email growth of Detroit, which has
passed Cleveland and which is now
the fourth city in the matter of pop
ulation in the country. Detroit in
creased it's population 1874 per cent.
in the decade between 1910 and
1920, advancing from population
of 465, 766 in 1910 to 993,739 in
1920. In 1920 it ranged below both
Cleveland and Baltimore.
Following is the way in which the
cities rank now, with the population
of each New York, 5,621 900;
Chicago, 2,701 900; Philadelphia,
figures not available, but probably in
excess of 2,O00,O00; Detroit, $685.
700; Cleveland, 796,S00; st. Louis.
773,OO0; Boston, $4,000; Balti-
more, $4,000.

TO PERMANENTLY SETTLE THE
ISSUE.

The way to secure the speediest
permanent settlement of the liquor
question is to prevent any weakening
of the Volstead Code.
Strict enforcement of the code as
it now stands will carry out the clear
intent and purposes of the Eigh-
teenth Amendment.
Organized resistance of the dry
policy as applied under the terms OF
the Volstead Code Will continually
grow weaker. Those who have
money invested in breweries and dis
tilleries and in saloon property are
even now withdrawing these invest
ments and putting them into other
enterprises. With bar-rooms closed
liquor organizations will disinter-
CRATE. Blessings accruing under.
Prohibition will multiply and will
make converts by the thousands to
the dry cause. Those who imagined
they could not get along without
beverage alcohol after few years
of abstinence, improved in health
and with more money in pocket, will
have no desire to return to old IL
cense days.
These are not idle prophecies but
are statements of fact supported by
experience of the first dry year. But
a letting down of the barriers at this
time for the legalization Of the
manufacture and sale of beer and
wine will not only mean backward
step with a consequent increase in
crime and drunkenness over the
record of the past year, but will be
sure guarantee of O continuance OIL
the fight against the traffic by the
majority of the people of this nation
who have outlawed the liquor traffic.
1t will mean fighting over old
ground once more, for remember The
issue is law enforcement and not
Prohibition.
Even the most sanguine of the
liquor trade do not extend hope OF
repeating the Eighteenth Amend
ment and the question of law en-
forcement rests primarily with Con
gress.
This fact makes the congressional
districts the chief battle-ground.
Therefore to hasten the permanent
settlement of this question every
friend of the Prohibition policy
should enter aggressively into these
congressional district campaigns in
an effort to elect a Congress that
will not weaken the code and thereby
hold the Volstead Code intact for
two years more.-American Issue.

1919 legislature in ratifying Federal
Prohibition. 1t is held that since
the Federal Constitution prescribes
the method of adopting or rejecting
proposed amendments to the Consti-
tuition it does not come within the
power of state to adopt some other
method. This ruling is in line with
the recent decision of the United
States Supreme Court in sustaining
the validity of the Eighteenth
Amendment.

Pot Holes Greatest in Eastern U. S.

Geological students, of Millers-
Vile, numbering twenty-five, under
the leadership of DR.. Roddy, visited
HOLLYWOOD recently for the purpose of
observing closely the rock and fossil
formation in the bed of the Susque-
hanna River, which, owing to the
low stage of the water, rendered
such observation possible. 1t was
noted that limestone, sandstone and
shales, characteristic of the head
water regions, was here in abundance
and was evidently carried down
stream by the ice and floods, The
main object of the visit was to study
the metamorphic rocks and inspect
closely the numerous pot holes in the
river bed and shore-line rocks. The
rocks in the vicinity of Bear Island,
about mile below the dam, offered
the best specimens of pot holes in the
whole eastern u. S. One pot hole of
exceptionally large dimensions was
photographed. Another pot hole, of
rare variety, was located high in an
overhanging rock. This pot hole was
such that it had penetrated the over
hanging rock shelf. After the party
had satisfied their thirst for curios
of bygone days, their hunger for
modern ideas drew them to- the
Hydro Electric Plant, through which
they were conducted by the official
guide.=Quarryville Sun.

The Tennessee Legislature met IN
extraordinary session Monday at
noon to consider ratification of the
Federal woman suffrage amendment
With So States already having acted
-favorably and with ratification by
only one more necessary for woman
suffrage to become effective through
out the nation, suffrage and anti-suf-
frage workers from all parts of the
country are prepared for what is con-
sidered as probably the most import
ant contest a General Assembly has
faced since Congress submitted SUI
frage ratification to the States.
Leaders of both factions are claim
ing victory, but in many quarters
there is disposition to regard the
outcome as uncertain at this time
Suffrage leaders pointed out that the
Legislature, in regular session last
year, granted Presidential and mu-
nicipal suffrage to the women OF the
State. The vote in favor OF tnls
legislation was a bare constitutional
majority in the Senate and ma
jority Of five in the house, II OF the
SO members of the Senate and "a OF
the 80 members of the House voting
in the Affirmative.
Three members of the Senate and
10 members of the House were elect
ed last week to fill vacancies, and the
suffragists declared that OF the u
they had II pledged, OF enough L
offset any losses if several of those
who voted favorably on the State
suffrage issue should oppose ratifica
ton by Federal action.
Opponents of woman suffrage II
any form, and those who oppose SUI
frage by Federal legislation, bul
favor it by State action, have com
bined forces and are confident thai
there are enough members of similar
views in each house to defeat ratifi'
cation.

FRIDAY, AUGUST Is, 1920.

In line with the ridiculous attempt
of Maryland's liquor controlled po-
litical bosses and wet Governor, to
discredit the Eighteenth Amendment
by Legislative enactment Of the last
General Assembly, which was a fiat
failure. comes an opinion by our
worthy Attorney General that the
state officials are not responsible for
the enforcement of the Volstead Act,
but that it is up to Federal officials.
ANYTHING will do for an excuse when
you want to squirm out of a job not
to your liking.

An Credit To the Farmer!

w. w. Lanahan & Co., bankers OF
Baltimore city, pay the following
tribute to the farmer:
To the credit of the farmers let 1t
be said that profiteering cannot be
laid at their doors. True farm
products are high, and in many in
stances unreasonably high, but this
condition is beyond the control OF
agriculturists. They received only a
fair profit ON what they raised and
sold and many of them did not even
split even. The other fellows-the
distributor and the retailers-were
the real beneficiaries. They prac
tically fixed prices at which the
growers had to sell and the differ-
ence between the prices farmers re-
ceived and prices the products
brought after they left the farm
went into the pockets OF middiemen
and retailers. The distributor is en-
titled to a fair profit for his services,
but we believe he has of late receiv
ed more than his share. Despite this

ed early and late to feed the popu-
lace.
Everything the farmer buys has
advanced tremendously in price; IN
addition he has been subjected TO
labor shortage, and forced TO pay
double wages and sometimes more
for the scant supply of help avail
able. Yet he tolied on, knowing that
il he struck to better his living con-
ditions city people would indeed face
a serious situation. The farmer de-
serves we'll at the hands OF our popu-
lation and should be accorded as
much consideration, to say the least,
as any other class. When we con-
slider how the farmer, working from
daylight to dark, has Jared in COM
parison with the So and $40 day
mechanic working 8 hours or less
daily, we do not wonder that the
farmer demands showdown, and
insists upon a share of the better
things of life.

A travelling Man,s Experience.

You may learn something from
the following by w. Fl. Ireland, a
travelling salesman of Louisville, Ky.
"In the summer of 1888 had a
severe attack of cholera morbus.
gave the hotel porter fifty cents and
told him to buy me a bottle of Cham
berlain's Collie and Diarrhoea Rem
edy and to take no substitute.
took a double dose of it according to
the directions and went to sleep. At
five O'Clock the next morning / was
called by my order and took train
for my next stopping place, well
