old and had been resident OF Daw-
son forty-three years. He was born
in Americas, and spent portion of
his boyhood there and in Cuthbert,
from which town the family removed

one of the most able and prominent
educators in the state and was in
charge for a number of years Of a
school in Dawson which held an en-
viable reputation among the institu-
tons of learning in this section.

MARYLAND'S PROSPERITY

Maryland is enjoying unpreceden-
ted prosperity under the Republican
National Administration, it is poin-
ted out by j. B. Reynolds, former
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
in Charge of Customs, in an analysis
of conditions in Eastern States.
Mr.. Reynolds analysis there shows
that the value of Maryland's manu-
featured productss will soon total
81 100000; that 10000 persons,
receiving wages exceeding S150,000,-
900, are engaged in this single branch
of the industrial life of the State
that the population is more than a
million and a half and the value of
all property is S2,000,000,000. Anoth-
er significant factor of a States pros
perity is the volume of bank savings,
and Maryland's has reached record
proportions.
"Maryland's prosperity" Mr.. Rey-
nolds observes, SIS due to the protec-
ton its people enjoy, because of a
tariff that enables them to do their
own work. Maryland citizens are
making great progress in all indus
tries and trades and the workers are
getting the highest wages ever
known. This means a profitable mar
ket for the farmers whose prosperity
is worth nearly quite, half a billion
dollars. Marylanders are rejoicing
over reduction of taxation with
more to follow next year.
"All these benefits and blessirc
have come under Republican Ad-
ministration and because of pro-
tective tariff. Continued prosperity
is absolutely dependent on continued
protection. And yet we are in the
midst of a campaign which threatens
the work and wages of citizens of
Maryland and of other states. Davis
and Bryan are both Traders
while a vote for La Toilette means
that if success in his scheme, Mr..
Bryan would be the next President.
"The voters of Maryland should
awaken to the fact that only by the
election OF Coolidge and Dawes can
they keep and maintain their indus
tries, their work and their wages.
All is well today. Why change to
conditions that mean hard times ?
There are other issues but on that of
Protection or Free-Trade, alone,
Maryland should give a most sub
stantial vote to Coolidge"

MORE FALSE CHARGES

Chairman Shaver, of the Demo-
cratic National Committee, says:
'Not only is the Republican admin
istration chargeable with the policy
and practices which have resulted in
destructive defiation of agricultural
prices and value; they are equally
responsible for legislation which con-
tinues the farmers bankruptcy and
misery"
Events of the last two weeks con-
firm the statement of the Republi-
cans that these claims of the chair
man of the Democratic committee
were made for political purposes on
ly, that they were untrue, but also
that they are ridiculous and absurd.
The Republicans were right when
they charged the decline in the pur-
chasing power of the farmers dol
lar from 1919 to 1924, to the gross
currency imitation of the Democratic
administration. The "defiation" that
the Republicans talked about was the
reduction in the volume of paper cur
rency INDUCED in by the Democrats,
causing high prices and low purchas-
ing power of the farmers dollar. The
Republicans restored the War FL
nance Corporation after the Demo-
Gratis declined to do so. The Republi-
cans extended more credit to the
farmers and assisted them in tiding
over their difficulties until the law of
supply and demand could operate
fully.
Prices Of farm products have ris-
en- until wheat brings more than $3.50
bushel, corn S1.39 a bushel, oats
81 cents a bushel, and other prices
increasing in the same proportion.
The Republican administration op-
pose all unsound efforts to fix prices
by act of Congress, promising that
natural laws would increase prices
and assist the farmers in paying their
debts and getting out of financial
trouble. Exactly what the Republi-
cans foretold happened.
The Democrats and Independent
Socialists are playing the same bunco
game they practiced on the farmers
in 1896 when they told the growers
of wheat out in the West that the
wicked gold bugs of Wall street"
were the cause of so cent wheat, and
the free and unlimited coinage of
silver was the only thing that would
bring wheat back to S1.00 bushel.
Before year rolled by after the cleo
ton of 1896 wheat went up to S1.00
and more a bushel.
In view of history and events Of
the past two weeks, the campaign
statements of the Democratic ma
tional chairman are ridiculous.

PUBLIC DEBT REDUCED
BILLION DOLLARS

The size of the public debt, in large
degree, determines the measure Of
taxes that must be levied upon the
citizens; as the debt grows, taxes
must be increased, and if the debt
be diminished, taxes are lowered.
One of the chief aims of President
Coolidge has been to reduce the bur-
den of taxation. At the past session
of Congress measurable relief was
secured, but still further tax reduc-
tons are advocated by the Executive
and still further tax reform and new
government economies will be de-
manded by him when Congress re-
assemblies.
The Democratic administration,
which retired in March, 1921, left be-
hind a staggering public debt. In adj
dition to the necessary costs of the
war, this debt had been vastly in
creased by the attempt of the govern
ment, under Democratic rule, to op-
crate the railroads Of the country;
millions had been wasted in aircraft
production that did not produce, as
shown by the Hughes investigation;
millions had been expended in the
purchase of supplies far in excess Of
the needs of the service.
This was, roughly, the situation
three-and-a-half years ago.
What was done about it? For one
thing, the public debt, amounting to
more than S24,000,000,000 when the
Republicans took hold, had been cut,
on June 80, last by more than three
thousand million dollars. The cost
of operating the departments of the
Federal government has been cut
more than two thousand million dol
lars year. The Bureau of the Bud
get has been established, and Con-
gressional appropriations for this
fiscal year are only little more than
half of what they were for the fiscal
year ending June ~, 1920.
Despite the huge amount which
must be paid yearly as interest on
the public debt, Republican economy
has made it possible to cut taxes by
a quarter, and slash the high sur
taxes which were driving capital out
of productive business into tax
exempt securities, leaving the main
burden of taxation on smaller in
comes. a..
These reasons for continuing a
Republican administration, backed up
by a sympathetic Republican Senate
and House, are difficult to combat
successfully.
