Maryland Legislators Get Pay
Little Better Than LabOrers

KTEMBERs of the Maryland legislature in session
4V4 and engaged in considerable squabblng among the
poorest paid State legislators in the United States No
wonder they scappy and let factional differences and
political issues stir them to troubles
These Maryland statesmen receive So per day for two
netyday sessions total of 5000 four years service
to the public They get insignificant mileage allowances in
addition
The Speaker of the House and the President Of the Senate
are each enriched with So day and mileage allowances
But Tor the fact that the average attendance about four
days per week the Maryland legislators would not receive
enough to pay hotel bills at Annapolis At that most of them
lose money at the end Of their terms.
So much for political glory and longing the people
Any plumber would his up at remuneration
paid by the ancient and historic State of Maryland to its
Legislators.
Last November Maryland voted upon Constitutional
amendment to increase the pay to $16 per day for each
session. with appropriate docking for absen-
cerned about other questions than this defeated the amend
ment
The legislature session will again submit the amend
ment to voters in 1880, and it ought to pass.

Charging Fees to See Capitol

cans from every part Of the country who must pay the com
paratively small fees.

There many historic points in the Capitol Building how
that these visitors do not They are known to the
Capitol guides courteous weormed men, and visitors who

iessly ramble through the building.
Mr. Taylor right in saying that the whole world should
be coureousy shown through Capitol Building without
any charge whatever He would put sufficient number Of
guides the Capitol pay rolls to do this and do away with
the fee system.
The history Of the Capitol and its great figures should be

in Golgotha's cross and the empty
tomb.
For 40 days church pc. " pause

Not necessarily religious pause,
but a period set aside for contem-

Those mysteries are not the
property of the Church. They be-
long to the humblest and most

should remember them and set
aside quiet momen.s in our lives
for reverence and wonder.
We make such poor business
Of living. We think only of what
we shall eat and what we shall
drink, where we shall sleep, whom
we shall love, at what task we

A MEXICAN tourists who visit
"A Barcelona this year during
the great international Exposi-
tion, will find one of the most
amusing features Of Spain's chief
city to be the Sardana, a form of
amusement peculiar to Barcelona
and its district, Catalonia. This
is a queer native dance which the
natives tread on the streets to
the accompaniment Of mum
icipal orchestra.
The dancing, a quaint measure
utterly unlike its ballroom proto-
types, goes on in different quar-
ters of the city each night. The
newspapers always tell where the
Sardana. is to be held, but the
tourist who is in doubt has only
to say "Sardana" to the first red
coated policeman he meets and
that worthy guardian of the
peace will promptly tell ones
driver where to go.
