SHOULD NOT DRAW THE
LINE TOO CLOSELY
Georgetown, Feb. 6, 1920.

Georgetown, Feb. 6, 1920.
Editor Examiner-As l am very
much interesting in conditions IN
general. both national and local, l.
read your paper very closely and de-
sire to pen a few of my thoughts,
after reading the resolutions passed
by the American Legion Post OF
Montpelier last week, some serious
thoughts passed through my mind,
something like this:
Was it our soldier boys alone, that
gained the great victory of the war!
Was it them alone that sacrlficed
for their country and mankindF
had a son who volunteered in the
coast artillery and served for II
months. had other sons placed in
different classes and took their plac-
es assigned them. Now the ques-
ton with me is, did the boy who
went to the army do it all and the
rest of the family nothing? some
of our boys volunteered and great
many were drafted. The majority OF
the volunteers would have been draf-
ted had they not volunteered.
All respect and all honor to our
solder boys. Now, what about those
that stayed at home? The men, wo-
men and children, and the boys who
were reserved for further drafting,
had a double burden OF labor fall
on them in doing the work that had
been done by all. They toiled almost
day and night to produce the neces-
sary foodstuff, not only for the boys
in the service, but for our allies
To a certain extent they were cur
tailed in their food and their cloth
ing. They were called upon to buy
Liberty bonds and contributed to the
Red Cross, Salvation army and 9TH
err charitable associations until 1t was
almost impossible for the average in
dividual to comply with all the re
uuirements made by the government
Our wives and daughters donned ov
erals and went into the fields tt
help irrigate and harvest. One of my
daughters drove a four horse team
on the pillow and header through thu
spring and fall work. l sometimes
think she suffered more cold ant
fatigue than did the boy who was II
the army and who was provided will
good quarters in the barracks, thr,
our work and sacrifice at home.
OF course many of our boys CAV
their lives, but great many of then
never saw the enemy-never left thu
camps or cantonments-nev wen
thru more than the ordinary hard
ships of life, but they and we all die
our duty and would have done NOR
had we been called upon to do it
So / say, let us be careful in dis
eliminating between the men wh'
were in the service and the men VIII
stayed at home, as perhaps the on
who stayed at home made create
sacrifices than the one who went in
to the service. believe in helping
our soldier boys all we can but lie
us not forget the ones who staye'
at home and did their part are ais
entitled to consideration, have tax
zen my own family as an example
and they are not different from 9th
ers. subscribe myself loyal, pat
riotic and observant citizen.

Women Should Vote.

All women 81 years of age and
over should register Tuesday
next and follow it up by voting
at the election in November.
The women of this country
never have shirked a duty, and
we do not believe they will do
so now. The question of wo-
mans suffrage is settled. 1t is
too late to give as an excuse for
not voting that one has always
been opposed to extending suf-
frage to women. 1t should be
remembered that when the bal
lot boxes are opened on election
night, there will be no means to
tell whether a ballot has been
cast by man or woman. All
will count the same. Therefore,
the duty Of all good women will
be to first register as voter
and then go to the polls on cleo
ton day and see to it that her
convictions are expressed by
her ballot.
We appeal to all friends of de-
cency and good order to use all
means within their power that
every woman 81 years of age in
Charles County performs the
duty now placed upon her.

his RECORD"

Under the above caption, the
Belair Times pays its resp scts to
Senator John Walter Smith and
his record
IF there is one thing above
another that should be held sa-
cred in a republic, it is the invio-
liability of the right of franchise
or, in other words, the right of
each citizen to cast his ballot,
free and untrammeled, without
threat or hinderance. The man
or set of men, no matter under
what guise, who by legislative
tricks and chicanery, attempt to
pass laws to disfranchise certain
classes of voters, who make such
laws as render it impossible for
many to vote and who further
are bitter in their opposition to
granting the voting privileges to
millions of our most intelligent
citizens, in obvious opposition to
the very meaning of the term,
democracy, borders close on the
man who is a traitor to his coun-
try and who uses his fellow-citi-
zens as pawns in his game.
Those immortal words, Give me
liberty or give me DEATH" repre-
sent the cardinal principles on
which this country was founded.
If by such methods and such
men, one class can be granted or
refused the franchise, then the
freedom of this country is in
deed lost and we have become
dumb driven cattle.
Senator John Walter Smith
and his coterie of Democratic
politicians, during the 20 years
in which they have held positions
of power, knowing that the cleo
torate, if untrammeled, would
have quickly ousted them from
Office, have through the Wilson
Ballot Law, the trick ballot, the
Declaration of Intention Law,
which Senator Smith had passed,
the Grandfather Law which he
attempted to have passed, dis
franchising thousands upon
thousands of colored men and
perpetuate himself in office. He
further has been the one man in
Maryland who has been most OBJ
stinate and bitter in his opposi.
ton to Woman's Suffrage.
For years the Democratic or
ganization of Maryland, of which
Senator Smith was the head, had
its main support and gained its
main strength from the liquor
element, which he favored, in
turn by resisting with every re-
source in his power the attempt
of the Local Optionists and the
Antisaloon League to drive out |
of existence.
The dry people know full well /
whose hand opposed them as one
legislature followed after anoth.
er without success. Yet now
this same gentleman has the au-
dacity to seek the support of the
dry people of the state for re-
turn to the United States Senate.
The churches are allowing their

pulpits to be filed by represens
tatives Of the Antisaloon League
in open advocacy of his election,
and their main theme is, high
moral ground, when a few years
ago they excoriated him with
words only limited to their high
calling.
What has Senator Smiths rec
ord in public life been, but mar
rowminded selfshness so far as
the larger interests of the body
polite are concerned =? Some of
it is given above. Follow him to
the United States Senate and you
will find him a me too" Demo
crat, except where his personal
and material interests are in.
volved. You will find him voting
with his party on that cardinal
principle of democracy, mo tar
if" to let in duty free all mate
rails of necessity to the farmers
and the merchants, but when il
comes to his own pet business,
he votes for a prohibitive tariff
on lumber, in which line he has
made his millions. In other
words he repudiated, when his
own toe was pinched, the very
principles upon which he was
elected.
Is Il logical, is it good sense,
is it good morals, that the drys
and the women should support
Senator Smith with the above
record, as against a man of the
actual accomplishments of the
road builder of Maryland, o. E.
Weller, because, forsooth, he
disdains hypocracy and frankly
states his position on the Vol
stead law ? Mr.. Weller, person
ally, is practically an abstainer,
but has the wide view of citizen
and statesman, who, while feel
ing that liquor aids few, at the
same time realizes that haste in
passing drastic and new legisla-
ton must be made slowly, par
ticularly in this period of unrest
and turmoil through which the
country is passing, and with the
polyglot and unassimilated pop
ulation thereof"
And we would supplement the
above query-is it even good
mule sense for the colored vo-
ters of Maryland, especially the
Southern part thereof, remem-
bering so well as they do, that
this same John Walter Smith in
1901, when Governor, called an
extra session of the Legislature
for the sole purpose of disfrAn
chising them, to aid him now by
virtually throwing away theil
ballot in casting it for a man Of
their own color, W. Asbie Haw
kins. of Baltimore, who has nc
no earthly chance of election
and who for designing and un
founded reasons, is seeking K
defeat the regular Republican
nominee, Mr.. Weller ?

To CANCEL LEASE

George c. Campbell, oil opera

attorney, Capt W, C. Reid filed
demurrer Saturday in the United
States federal court at Santa Fe
TO the suit brought against him
10y the interior department Of the
United States government to can
Gel certain oil and gas leases
which he obtained from the Is
leta Indians, and asks that the
suit be dismissed on the grounds
that the bill does not state amy
matter of equity emitting The
plaintiff TO the relief prayed for,
nor are the facts as stated sutil-
cient to entitle plaintiff TO any re-
lief against the defendant.
The answer further states that
for the most part OF the bill Is
based on mere conclusions of law.
In the matter that an Indian agent
has been appointed over the Is
leta Indians who exercises
guardianship over them, II states
that there is no warrant Of law
for such an appointment Of guar
dianship. Also, that if, as al

NATIONAL LIFE ms.
COMPANY BRINGS SUIT
ON PROMlSS0RY NOTE

The National Life Insurance
Company of the Southwest has
brought suit against D. r. Blanch-
ard and Mary Blanchard in the dis
trict court on a promissory note for
$4,000. on April II, 1919, the COM
pany received the note from Mr..
and Mrs. Blanchard which fell due
on October IL, 1919. During and
since this time payments were
neither made on the principal nor
the interest and therefore the in
surance company asks the court to
allow it the full amount of the
note, the interest at 6 per cent ac-
cruing before October 2, and $ per
cent after that date until satlslac-
torv settlement is made.
