Women Not Swayed
by False Pledges
They Believe Firmly in Cool
idge, Says Mrs. Alvin T.
Hert, National Leader.

Republican women are not allow
ing their emotions to run away with
them. There will be no split in their
ranks. Promises held out by LaFol-
lette and the SOclallst-Third party,
hold no appeal for them. They will
vote for Coolidge. This is the manner
in which Mrs. Alvin T. Hert. vice chair
man of the Republican National Com
mittee. sums up the outlook for No
yember 4th.
Mrs. Hert says that without excep-
ton reports Of Republican national
commltteewomen from every state are
the same In one respect. They all
say that women are for Coolidge be
cause they believe in him as a man.
They know Of the high principles for
which he stands. They have watched
his record during the past year and
see that he Is man of conviction.
and at all times stands for that which
he thinks is for the good of the ma
Jorlty. They say that women appre-
ciate his firm stand for an economical
admlnIstration-the fact that he has
evaded no issue. compromised no prin-
ciple. They know that President
Coolidge and the Republican party
stand for protection. This means
much to the woman in industry and

LOGICAL CANDIDATE.

The Republican State Central
Committe, at a special meeting
called in Baltimore Wednesday,
named Mr.. Thomas B. Il. Mudd
for both the short and long term
in Congress to succeed his late
brother, Sydney E. Mudd. In
doing so, we believe that the
committee has acted wisely.
From a party standpoint it is
the most logical selection that
could have been made.
There is a possibility that the
election of the next President
may be thrown into the House oil
Representatives as the result OF
Senator la Follette's candidacy,
and the election of a democrat to
the short term would mean that
the Democratic candidate would
get the vote of this State for the
Presidency, whereas, the cleo
ton of a Republican will prevent
such a result and leave the state
stand as it did before the death
of Representative Mudd, a tie.
The selection is logical for an
other reason. The election is
but seventeen days off and little
time is left for a new candidate
to make his campaign. Due to
the fact that the present candi-
date had always been closely al
lied with his brother in all the
latter's campaigns and had al
ready begun to aid him for re-
election, being thoroughly famil-
lar with and known all of over the
district, he is in a better posi-
tien to make the fight than any
who could have been named at
this time. His selection, too, is
wise, regardless of politics, for
the reason that he is exception
ally well qualified for the posi-
ton from many standpoints-
education, ability, and knowl-
edge of the needs and interests
of the people, aud because of
his familiarity with the work of
of Congress, having for a num-
Der of years been Secretary to
his late brother. Therefore, we
again say his selection is the
wisest that could have been
made and that his election will
follow, as at this time particu-
larly the best interests Of the
people as a whole will be served
thereby,

MARYLAND PROSPECTING.

Maryland is enjoying unprece-
dented prosperity under the Re
publican National Administra.
tion, it is pointed out by j. B.
Reynolds, former Assistant Sec
rotary of the Treasury in charge
of Customs, in an analysis OF
conditions in Eastern States.
Mr.. Reynolds analysis shows
that the value of Maryland's
manufactured products will soon
total 81, 900, 900, 600; that $50, 900
persons, receiving wages exceed
ing $150, 600, 600, are engaged in
this single branch of the indus
trial life of the State; that the
population is more than a million
and a half and the value of all
property is 81, 900, 100000. An
other significant factor of a
States prosperity is the value
of bank savings, and Maryland
has reached record proportions.
"Maryland's prosperity" Mr..
Reynolds observes, is due to the
protection its people enjoy, be-
cause of a tariff that enables them
to do their oTn work. Mary
land citizens fare making great
progress II all Industries and
trades and the workers are get
ting the highest wages ever
known. This means a profitable
market for the farmers, whose
property is worth nearly quite,
half billion dollars. Maryland
ers are rejoicing over a reduc-
ton of taxation with more to fol-
low next year.
All these benefits and bless.
ings have come under a Repub-
lican Administration and because
of a protective tariff. Continued
prosperity is absolutely depend
ent on continued protection.
And yet we are in the midst Of
campaign which threatens the
work and wages of citizens of
Maryland and of other states.
Davis and Bryan are both Free
Traders, while a vote for La Fol
lette 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 industries, their
work and their wages. All is
well today. Why change to con-
ditions that mean hard times ? /
There are other issues but on
that of Protection or Free Trade, |
acne, Maryland should give a |
mnst substantial vote to Cool
Idge."

only I've
.aidsnt having
the electoral
for, and this
.hoice down to Gen
.dvernor Bryan.
sltustlon Important
.esent senate would select.
IN there now Is Important.
a nominally 81 Republican
5. but this number includes La
.te OF Wisconsin and Brookhart
., Iowa, and others who Of late have
seldom voted with the Republicans.
Forty.three senators are listed as
Democrats, and two. Ladd and Frazier,
are listed as Farmer-Laborites
II Bryan can hold the 43 Democratic
senators in line and get the votes of
the two Farmer-Labor senators. this
would give him a nucleus of 45 votes
BY securing four Of the so-called Re
publlcans. such as Bsookhart and La
Toilette, this majority would put into
the White House a man for whom the
American people had not voted for
President. and who would be minor
lty choice.
II Bryan could secure only the 4S
Democratic senator's. the two Farmer
Labor senators. and three such men
as LaFollette. the election would be
deadloeked, and the country thrown
into state OF chaos never before
faced. Throwing the election Into the
congress would Of itself have terrific
effect upon business and Industry the
country over, causing a wave Of de.
preston which would affect everyone.
as this would cause months Of uneer-
tainty before a choice by the congress
was attempted. II. on top Of this. the
senate should get Into a deadlock as
the house 10 certain to. the depres-
slon might easily became a panic, with
terrific and far-rsaehlna results.
Other Possibilities.
There is the outside chance, In the
event Of Coolidge failing TO receive a
majority Of the electoral votes. that
when the matter came TO the sennte.
such Democrats as Glass OF Virginia.
Bruce Of Maryland and Underwood Of
Alabama would vote for General
Dawes, the Republican nominee, rather
than put such man as Bryan In the
White House.
A large body Of thought In the
United States holds to the opinion thnf
the whole purpose Of LaFollette Is
10 throw the election into the con
gress, where he and his followers
probably would WELD the balance Of
power. and this small group would
name the next President Of the United
states. Naturally, this would put that
/ President under heavy obligation to
the I.aFollette group, and he as Its
leader, would exercise tremendous
power, even though his followers rep
resent the smallest fraction of the
makeup Of the United Stutes senate
The summing up of the situation
is This:
Voting for LaFollette Is voting for
Bryan.
Voting for Davis. by the same an
alysis. Is voting fof Bryan.
Voting for Coolidge is voting for
Coolidge.
