.DEMOCRATSSTR|KE
SNAG IN maryland
Harmony Plans, Carefully
Worked Out, Wrecked When
Candidate Rebels.

Special Dispatch to T he Star.
BALTIMORE. August 13.-Notwith
standing the reported Intervention of
Gov. Richie in an effort to avert the
impending democratic primary fight
in Baltimore city between the Mahon
and Kelly factions, the harmony plans
which had been carefully worked
out, and which were thought to be
going through without hitch. struck
snag in the person of William S.
MantZ, director of the 1920 census in
this district. who is a candidate for
court clerk. and several other candi-
dates who had been "shelved" by the
harmony committee. refusing to be
"shelved," and announcing their in
tention of making the fight for nomi-
nation.
This unlocked for devel0pment
threw bombshell into the ranks of
the faithful" and it is said that the
powers that be, having found out that
diplomacy will not work, are prepar-
ing to use force to bring about the
retirement of undesirable candidates
from the field.
Open Warfare Race.
Omen warfare on candidates of their
own party has not been resorted to in
recent years by the democratic lead
ers, who. as rule. are not tax
ing sides, but leave the selection to
the voters. This time they simulated
the example of a famous politician
back in the nineties. who publicly in
structed his lieutenants in this city,
when certain candidates insisted on
trying their luck. "If they won't get
out. knock them out" And. accord
actly what the party leaders are
going to try to do between now and
the primary.
Women Fail to Lead.
On the other hand, everything in
the republican party. with the excep-
ton of the women. appears to be har-
mOniouS. All candidates are said to
have been agreed upon. and the slate
practically made up. but this has not
met with the approval of the women.
and right there trouble looms large
for the leaders of the G. o. p. in
Maryland. Just what recognition the
leaders propose to give the woman
vote is what the woman leaders of
the party want to know, and to that
end they held meeting this week
and appointed a committee to wait on
Senator Weller and find out what he
thinks should be the par,y's attitude
on the subject of woman's share in
party patronage.
In commenting on this question. one
of the women at the meeting said
I'VE feel that the women who gave
their time to the propagation of re-
publicanism are. for the most part.
not women of leisure or of great
means-they are workers. AS work
erS. many of them at least feel that
party recognition of the value of
their work for the party is only just
and fair at the hands of the party
when lucrative positions are being
parceled out"

My kidneys were irregular in action
and I was dizzy. When ever have
used Doan's Kidney Pills always get
relief from these complaints. GER
tainly think them good reliable rem

The above statement was given No

1920, Mrs. Holiday said: II am glad
to say my kidneys have given me no
trouble since using Doan's Kidney
Pills four years ago. My general

manufacturing industries and the b.
tumiqous coal mining industry. These
reports would indicate that the low
point OF unemployment was reached in
July Of this year.
Nine OF the industries reporting
show an increase OF 1881 employees
in August, 1921, as compared with
July, 1921. Four manufacturing indus.
tries and the bituminous coal mining
industry show a decrease OF 5,573 en-
ployees. The enet employment gain
therefore, was 5,SO5 perosns. While
this Increase ia not large, considering
the fact that the Industries reporting
employ over 100000 persons, the basic
, character of the Industries covered by
the reports is such that the gain is In
dicative Of improving conditions
throughout the Industrial world.
Another encouraging feature Is the
fact that three OF the five industries
reporting decreases in employees paid
out more money for wages in August
than in July, in spite Of the smaller
number Of employees. This indicates
that the employees Of these Industries
put in more working hours or days In
August than in July, as there have
been practically no wage increases IN
any industry.
The reports for the two months were
secured from identical establishments
in each industry. The largest increases
in employment occurred in establish
ments manufacturing hosiery and I'M
derwear, mems read-made clothing,
iron an dsteel, and boots and shoes.
The increases ranged from 5.5 per cent
to 4.S per cent. An employment de-
crease of SO per cent. is shown in
automobile manufacturing, a decrease
Of 1.6 per cent is reported by the BIZ
luminous coal mining industry.
