Annapolis
The State Roads Loan bill was a.
nally passed by the House by vote
Of 81 to 8. after Mr. Gambrill. OF How
ard county, had made a losing fight
to strike out the provision which
makes It mandatory in the counties to
provide part Of the money to pay for
lateral roads.
Mr. Gambrill was incensed because
the administration put on pressure to
rush the bill through. and by a vote
Of the House to limit arguments to
Is minutes. The motion to limit de-
bate was made by Democratic Floor
Leader Coblentz and was carried by
43 to 32
Mr.. Gambrill scored the administra-
tion for what he termed its railroading
methods. and gave notice that he
would take issue before the people of
the State. After two speakers had
followed. debate was shut off by
call for the previous question. The
amendment was voted down, Z? to Is.
After a long and somewhat heated
debate, the Senate by a vote Of II to
9 passed the Nuttle Antiracetrack
Betting Bill, which would submit the
whole question Of regulated racing
or no regulated racing to the votes
OF the people next fall
The measure was attacked as to its
legality by Senator Biggs, and it was
also opposed by Senator Mcintosh,
who recalled the old lays Of the out
law tracks and thought 1t unwise to
submit the question to the mass OF
voters unfamiliar with It.
Senator Metzerott defended the bill
and there was quite passage at arms
between him and Senator Mcintosh.
1t is thought that there is small
chance for the measure in the House.
After a long and heated fight in the
Senate the so-called miners bill was
virtually killed by striking out all ex-
cept the provision for a commission
to study mining laws. Senator Eppler
made another impassioned plea for
the bill and was supported by SEN
ators Mish and Metzerott Senator
Wolfe offered the emasculating
amendment and made an address. but
the cleverest and most effective
speech was made by Senator Biggs
The roll call on the Wolfe amend
ment, which virtually killed the bill,
was as follows:
Yeas-Brady, Biggs, Burdette,
Disharoon. Frick. Grason, Harri-
son. Legg, Mcintosh, Nuttle, Snad-
er, Sproesser, SuAer, Wolfe-14.
Nays-Norris. Bartlett, Croth-
ers, Eppler, Gibson. Goodell, Met
Eerott, Mish, Mitchell, Parran,
Robins. Russell, Speicher-13.
The third reading OF the emascu-
lated bill was passed by the same vote,
except that Senator Parran voted for
It.
The whole bill is virtually dead, as
the House is not likely to pass it In
its masculsted form.

Maintenance Of County Highways

In the foundation of plans for a
road system there are two broad heads
under which all the work to be done
may be classified, namely: construc-
ton and maintenance. In many cases
there has been a marked tendency to
consider the job complete when the
former has been done. The reasons
for this are not obscure. Construc-
ton is spectacular. To build road
appeals to the ayman as well as the
engineer. Only comparatively short
piece of road is built at one time and
the job is soon completed. The con-
struction organization is not difficult
and in many cases is left entirely to
the contractor With maintenance just
the reverse is true in each case.
ACain, the citizens in any progress
sive community constantly demand
that their roads be improved, and
those in control of the road funds, in
order to satisfy these demands are
prone to set aside the larger part of
the fund for construction purposes
with the result that work done by
their predecessors is allowed to fail in
a relatively short time due to lack of
maintenance.
New construction we must have, but
this alone without proper provision
for maintenance is waste Of the tax
PAYERS money. Maintenance may be
defined as the process of keeping the
road or pavement in as good condition
as when the construction was COM
pleted. In order that the greatagt eff
ficiency may be obtained all state
roads should be constructed and main
tanned by the highway department. All
county roads by the county organiza-
ton.

safety and sanity. They have been
deluded by false prophets, to their re-

perform his oath of office in spirit as
well as letter, and who will pursue

ciples of the Declaration of Independ-

Cox Follows Republican Precedent by
Promising a "Dirt Farmer Office

Governor Cox thought he had made
a hit with tn farmers when he said
# nlcc.ed President, he would app pint
real "di.-t fa,1le-" Secretary cf Agri-
culture.
The Democratic candidate for Presi-
deaf thus criticised the Wilson ap-
ciltees to tie position of Secretary
of Agriculture. This has made cold
chills run down the spine of the Will
son Democrats VINO have been boast
ing of the great achievements OF the
Wilson administration. Secretaries
Houston and Meredith have been two
prize offici:ls of the wilson admins
trat.on.
Yet this is not all. Governor Cox
forgets that the Republicans for many
years had real "dirt farmer" as
Secretary of Agriculture. Senator
Harding calls attention to this by say
ing:
'For sixteen years, under three Re
publican administrations, we had real
farmer from a real farm as Secretary
of Agr!culture-'Uncle Jim Wilson of
Iowa, who made the department the
greatest of it's sort in the world. He
ran it for the farmers, made it an in
strument to fight for the farmers and
to serve them in a thousand ways
When the Democrats came into power
they brought a university president as
Secretary of Agriculture and after him

Harvey Finds a President
(Harvey's Weekly

The people of the United States
want President, not prestidigita-
tor; President of the United States
of America, not a President of the
League Of Nations nor President of
the world. They want President who
will give his first thoughts and best
efforts to executing the laws of the
United States and to maintaining its
Constitution, and not to prescribing
cardiac stimulants for the "heart of
the world" They make no mistake in
discerning such man in Mr.. Harding.
No cry Of 40. here!" or 40, there!"

Educational
Toys for
Children

September and school are
synonymous. All over the
country children are pre-
pairing for the opening of
school-some joyfully--
others fearfully. This
is either because lessons
have always seemed hard
or because they are enter
ing upon their school careers
and everything is new and
strange. In either case a
thoughtful mother or faith
er can help.
In our department Of eduea-
tional toys we have a large as
sortment Of instructive games
particularly designed to help
small boys and girls with diff
cult lessons. We have a new
