TO CHECK DISCONTENT.
Gov. CornweII Advises Merchants To
Foreeo Their Profits.

Atlantic City, N. 'J.-Governor John
J. Cornwell, of West Virginia., told
the joint convention of the American
Hardware Manufacturers Association
and the Southern Hardware Jobbers'
Association here that high prices are
the groundwork of discomfort.
81 believe if the great merchants
of this country would make UP their
mind to forego profits for three or
four months and sell the things which
our people must have, at cost and
reasonable commission, they would go
far toward knocking the bottom out
of unrest and discomfort" he declared.
81 am no alarmist, but the man who
has failed to grasp the extent Of the
radical movement in this country does
not know all he ought to know. We
have got to get government back to
constitutional grounds, and we have
got to eliminate lot Of the socialistic
doctrine and theory running riot
through the Federal Government and
some of our state governments as
we'll"

r. r. Man Asks City To Help.

Hagerstown.-At a conference with
the Commissioners here relative to
paving streets, Emory l.. Coblentz,
president of the Hagerstown and
Frederick Railroad, stated that the
company desires cooperation with the
city. His company, he declared,
wished to comply with terms of its
franchise in the matter of paving, but
he pointed out many difficulties that
the company was contending with. He
suggested that matters affecting the
city : and company hereafter be
handled differently from in the past.
Relative to the extension of the troll
ley system through the west end OF
Hagerstown, President Coblentz fnti-
mated that if the citizens showed suffi-
cient interest the company might con-
slider the proposition favorably. The
move, however, he said must originate
with the citizens. es

STATE .
CAPITAL
City Man. For Game Warden

,Ss.Es uE--.- s.AQnapOflSI-
II Governor Richie does not change
his mind he will appoint Charles E.
Smith, Of the First Legislative dis
trict of Baltimore, State Game War
den to succeed E. Lee LeGompete, of
Dorchester county, who was appointed
by Governor Harrington.
Governor Ritchie, it is said, is re-,
luctant to displace Mr.. LeCon1pte with,
Mr.. Smith, and probably would not
do so, but for the knowledge which
he gained through the efforts of the
members from several counties in the.
recent legislature to repeal or localize
the statewide game law which was
enacted by the General Assembly of
1918 through the efforts of Howard
Bryant. No sooner was this law on
the statute books than objections
were raised by the counties. In the
recent General Assembly efforts were
made to exempt counties from the
provisions of the law. According to
reports to the Governor jealousies
game protection law by county man.
The whole structure was in danger of
topping. 1t was not a question Of
the administration Of the law by Mr..
LeCompte. The same trouble was in
sight If any other county man should
be placed in charge of the department.
Recognizing this situation and in a
serious effort to save the statewide
game protection law Governor Ritchie
is said to have looked at the judicial
end of the situation He endeavored
to find a man for State Game Warden
who would not be hampered by local
conditions, who would approach the
enforcement Of the law without local
prejudices, and who would be guided
wholly by wholesome desire to en-
force the law. He was convinced that
such man could be found in the
city.
In looking over the Endorsements
for appointments to this position he
found the name of Charles F. Smith,
of East Baltimore. who was recon-
mended for the place by Frank A.
Furst, the only appointment, in fact,
for which Mr.. Furst has asked. In
recommending Mr.. Smith Mr.. Furst
had in mind the need of man who
will meet requirements in protection
Of the game and fish laws Of the
state irrespective of county prejudices.
To the activities and influence of
Mr. Furst the election Of Mr.. Ritchie
as Governor is attributed. Mr.. Furst
has asked no returns for any inf1u-
ence which he may have exerted in
behalf of Mr.. Ritchie. There have
been reports of differences between
Governor Ritchie and Mr.. Ffurst. Ac-
cording to authenticated reports from
their respective Offices these reports
are groundless Mr.. Furst has recon-
mended Frank Zouek for reappoint-
ment as chairman of the State Roads
Commission and Mr.. Smith for State
Game Warden. He has gone no
further, and, if reports are reliable,
he will continue to be friend OF
Governor Richie whether these ap-
pointments are made or are turned
down.

PHILANTHROPIST STRAUS
SAYS 1T is A DISGRACE
TO DIE RICH.

New York.-An ambition to die
poor because ''it is a disgrace for
a man to die rich,' was expressed
by Nathan Straus, 72-year-old re-
tired millionaire philanthropist.
"It is criminal not to share
with those who are poor and suf-
fering," he added. "The man who
dies with worldly riches has failed
in the greatest thing in life-his
duty to the world"
Declaring that if his hope is
fulfilled he "shall be rich in hap
piness and in good works." Mr..
Straus continued:
There is no satisfaction in
money alone. Food and home,
work and play-they are for rich
and poor alike, and l find that
the only lasting satisfaction is in
what you can do fer the world"
Mr.. and Mrs. Straus will sail
for Palestine next month to aid In
the restoration work there.

Germany, it is reported will partici-
