THINKS AMENDMENTS
SHOULD BE DEFEATED
Continued from Page 1.


Assembly and the amount of money
saved by the reduction of the number
of elections would much more than
oounterbalanced by the evils which
would undoubtedly result to the pub
lie service by such a revolutionary
experiment. And it is gratifying to
be able to say that very large num-
Der of the people of Baltimore city
are as strongly opposed to these
changes in the constitution of the
State as are the people of the coun-
ties, regardless of party. To increase
the city representation and thus lower
the character of the General Assem-
bly, would be the height of folly. To
give the foreign population more pow
er, to fill up the House of Delegates
with a horde of Poles, Russians, Che
cko-Slovakians, Jugo Slavs, Italians,
Germans and other former denizens of
the slums of the Central and Southern
European cities would be an act of
civic insanity, and intelligent Mary
landers should see that the whole
scheme is overwhelmingly rejected.
These people should never have been
granted the right to vote. and any at
tempt to give them more power and
influence in public affairs should be
thrown into the political dump heap
with indignant scorn and contempt,
40 matter who may be its advocates,
whether journalistic or. otherwise.
There are more than a few indica-
lions at the present time that demo-
cratic victory in Maryland next month
will depend upon the work done by the
loyal and regular forces of the party
m the counties. 1t should be remem-
bered what was done by certain infu-
entail elements of the party in Balti-
more six years ago and two years ago
in the last two Senatorial elections.
In both these elections the democratic
nominees carried the counties by good
najorities, but were defeated through
5reachery in Baltimore. Two such
lessons in recent years should be a
warming to the county democrats and
shey should exert themselves to the
Utmost to prevent a REPETITION of such
catastrophe. The fact that the reg
stration in the city shows a consider
lble democratic majority does not in
sure a democratic majority at the
polls when certain elements of much
power and influence, but utterly lack
ng in principle, are disloyal to the
party faith which they are supposed
tc sustain.

PRINCE AIDS BLOW TO sNOBS
ish Boys of High and Low
Degree.

London, England. - The duke Of
York, second son of the king, will re-
peat this year the experiment he made
last year for what has been called
1.-The Encouragement of snobocracy and
the encouragement of democracy"
So thorough an understanding was
then established between boys from
Westminster school and boys from a
Welsh steel works, following football
match, that summer camp was set
up by the duke to encourage good feel
ing between boys of different social
planes. Two hundred public school
boys with an equal number from con-
gested and industrial areas were in
vited to share the camp.
The selection Of the boys and the
arrangement for the camp this year
are In the hands Of the Industrial
Welfare society, Of which the duke Of
York is president, but beyond that the
society will have nothing to do with
the project.
In order that the boys meet on terms
of perfect equality, cricket, football
and kindred games will not be played,
because II is felt that public school
boys, having more opportunities for
practice, would hold an advantage over
the other boys at such games.
fThey will besdiyided into sections of
20, ten balhg pd0aic. school boys and
ten industrial lads. They will share
the SEE huts, eat the same food and
engage in the same sports and recre-
alton.
