FRIDAY. JULY a. 1880.
C. o. P. ALL SET FOR
BIG PARADE"

With their State ticket all made
up, and happy over their success
in having avoided the unpleasant
ness and usually unhealing scars
Of a bitter Primary battle, the
Republic ms of Maryland, over
flowing with optimism, are full
of fight and "rearin' to 60" As
one enthusiastic booster of the
minority party put it, they are
going to stage a big parade" all
of their own, which will be car
ried into every political nook and
corner of our great Common
wealth, and end at Annapolis
with the landing of their stand
ard. bearer on h throne of
honor in the Executive Mansion.
The Republican slate was
completed on Friday of last week,
when caucus of fty-tbree re-
representatives. of t b e Eastern
Shore counties met at Salisbury
and named candidate from
the Sho' for Comptroller. He is
W. Newton jackson, age SO, son
OF National Committeeman Will
liam P. Jackson and treasurer of
the big Jackson Brothers Lumb
err Company. of Salisbury. The
comparatively young candidate
comes of one of Maryland's most
prominent and wealthy families,
and one evidently popular on the
Eastern Shore from a vote get.
ting standpoint, as that section,
although normally largely Dem
ocratic, has atvarious times been
represented by members of
the Jackson family in both
Houses of the National Congress
and other public Offices.
With h e selection of Mr..
jackson, the completed Republi-
can State wide ticket is as fol
lows:
For Governor William F. Broening,
lawyer and Mayor of Baltimore City.
For Attorney General-David A.
Robb, lawyer and former State SEN
ator from Allegany County, Western
Maryland.
For Comptroller-W. Newton jack
son, lumber and business man from
Wicomieo County, Eastern Shore.
For Clerk Court of Appeals Charles
S. Warner, dentist, banker and busi,
ness man, from Hartford County,
Northeastern Maryland.
1t will be noted from the above
that every section of the State
is represented on the ticket
except Southern Maryland. In
former years it has been custom
airy for the candidacy for Clerk
of the Court of Appeals to come
from Southern Maryland, but
the position is somewhat of ar
empty honor" and this year, as
there is no particular demand
from this section for the place,
it was considered good move tc
give this to the Northeastern
section, thereby recognizing and
opening up a somewhat new field,
which takes in a very large por.
ton of our voting population. II
is understood that Southern
Maryland will be satisfied and
adequately taken care of by
means of assurances of patron
age.

Col. Stdrreh Cites Factors Making for improvement
in the Building Undergraduates Time Is Ripe
for Revival of Construction Programs.

Why shouldn't we have modern hous-
ing for every one, especially the work.
ing classes? Why shouldn't there be
more street traffic facilities, better rail-
way and bus terminals. modernized
food and produce districts, such as the
Van SweringenS have built in Cleve-
land, and more scientific warehousing
facilities?
study an airplanss view of any large
city and it will quickly be apparent
that the best are only partly modern
lied.
Obsolete Structures.
In modern factory procedure any
machine, however costly, Is imme-
diately scrapped as soon as a better
has been developed. An industrialist
notable for his successful achievements
recently discarded a large new assem-
bly, plant because he found his freight
bills would be little less if he shifted
operations to another point. If we
study cities from the standpoint of pro-
ductive efficiency as regards the total
output of goods, services and happy
living in the way a successful engineer
studies factory layout, the result
ing showing would be sad commentary
on efficiency.
There are very few blocks in any
large city area that are not encountered
with some obsolete structure; there Is
hardly q function of city life that is
using the equipment suitable to its
needs. We could build and build for
years before reaching the point of eff
cheney in the physical layout of cities
How foolish to think that there is
a way of escape by. dispensing cities
into suburbs, as so many well meaning
amateur city planners are urging. Cities
came into being and were built up very
largely into compact skyscraper dis
'tricts as a natural response to split
second era. Time Is short-dreadfully
short in the world of modern affairs
and there is no substitute for the factor
of personal contact.
Why quarrel about this condition,
why waste energy In futile proposals
of moving business to the suburbs?
How much better to accept the fact as
it is, and then proceed to build a suit
able physical plan to meet the situa-
ton. All the facilities I have ,indt-
Gated are essentially sound investment
projects. which would easily pay their
carrying charges, as we'll as legitimate
profit for their sponsors.
Sees Better Conditions.
Once these things are fully realized
and once the possibilities of betterment
are envisioned, I do not see why there
shouldn't be another release of human
energy quite comparable to anything
in the past
If then, a new objective is wanted
to constitute a challenge to our capaci-
ties, there 1t is. In the meanwhile
everything points to better conditions
in the building and construction in
dustry.

MARYLAND PLANTING
DELAYED BY DROUGHT
Farmers Are Handicapped in Start
ing Wheat, Rye and
Barley Crops.
Dispatch to The star.

special Dispatch TO Inc star.
BALTIMORE, November 1.-The
continued drought, unbroken by the
recent rain, has placed an added burden
on the farmers Of the State by delaying
the planting of wheat, rye and barley
for next Summers harvest, according to
information received at the local office
of the Weather Bureau.
Due to the so per cent deficiency in
rainfall since January /, 1t was pointed
out that the ground was hard to pillow
and was dry for a considerable distance
below the surface. The rain Wednes-
day, 1t was said, did not change condi-
tons materially, as it merely moistened
the ground.
Faced by the dificulty of blowing
the hardened ground and the lack of
moisture to terminate the seed, many
farmers put of the sowing Of their
grain waiting for rain.
In Western Maryland the planting
Of the regular acreage Of wheat and
rye was finished about a week ago In
cases where the wheat first had sprouted,
it was pointed out, the lack of rain had
resulted in poor stands, with the
young grain showing in patches in the
fields.
The planting Of wheat, rye and bar
ley in North Central Maryland was f1n-
ished last week. The ground in this
section was said to be even dryer than
in Western Maryland.
Grain is now being sown in Southern
Maryland and the Eastern Shore, with
reports indicating that very little has
been planted. Due TO the dry ground
on the Shore farmers were reported to
have difficulty in turning up the
ground deep enough to plant the seed
grain in the proper manner.
Although some Of the earlier sown
wheat is up. as in Western Maryland,
1t was pointed out that the grain
planted later had not terminated due
to lack Of moisture.
