BALTIMORE, July 5.-Selection of a
rural site for the new penitentiary may
be made soon, according to Stuart S.
Janney, State director of welfare and
chairman of the welfare board.
Col. Janney said many sites had been
submitted to the board, and that he
probably would begin next week the
winnowing out process, thus narrow,
ing down the field from which a choice
will be made.
While no information as to the loca-
ton has been given out, it is said sites
in Anne Arundel, Prince Georges and
Montgomery counties are under con-
sideration by the board.
Next month the first inStallment-
$120,000-of the 100000 appropriated
for a site and first unit in the proposed
penal colony will be available.
The present penitentiary Is admitted
ly overcrowded, the population exceed
ing 1000, whereas, 1t is said, there is
adequate accommodation for less than
1000. This overcrowded condition
made the question of additional accom-
modations an acute issue, and along
with it revived the pen-tn-the- country
Dlan.

FREDERICK, Nd, July Contrast
ing conditions in the United States
with those of century and half ago.
Judge T. Scott Offutt, Towson, Md, a
member of the Maryland Court of APP
peals, on the occasion Of the unwilling
Of memorial to Thomas johnson, first
provincial Governor Of Maryland, in
this city yesterday, said many Of the
most valuable right of the individual
have been surrendered" and that "bu-
reaucratic officials consume our sub
stance and poster and bedeVil us with
'dont'S and musts' until we are afraid
to call our lives our own"
Included among the speakers at the
ceremonies was Charles Francis Adams,
Secretary of Navy, who read from a
letter Of President Adams that john
son was the suggestor of the nomina-
ton Of Washington for commander-tn
chief of the Continental Army, putting
to rest q contention of long standing
among historians over this point.
Referring to modern governmental
and social conditions, Judge Offutt said
I'VE are drifting more and more into
paternal socialism, the libertitieS which
our forefathers won, are being bartered
away for one mess of pattage or another.
many OF the most valuable T1gnCS Oh
the individual, which were the soul and
spirit of the common law, have been
seized or surrendered in the interest OF
the general welfare and politically the
individual has long since ceased to have
any existence aside from the public OF
which he is q part.
1.-THE press does our thinking for us,
the State guards our morals, boards and
commissions of one kind or another
manager our affairs and hordes OF bu-
reaucratic officials consume our sub
stance and poster and bedevil us with
'don'ts and musts' until we are afraid
to call our lives our own, have become
sick and tired of too much govern
ment and pray that somehow little OF
that hard pratical common sense and
genius for government. which marked
Johnson's generation may be substituted
for at least some of the rules, regu-
lations, ordinances and statutes, which
like bristling bayonets now face us at
every turn"
Others speaking were Former Judge
Glenn H. Worthington, who presided;
William Tyler Page, clerk of the United
States House Of Representatives, H.
Dorsey EtchiSon, Frederick; David c.
Winebrenner, Sd, Frederick; secretary
OF State, Edward s. Delaplaine, author

The bad example, Pack told the Sec

priations for the purpose permit.
OF the 1000. 900 and more acres I'M
