before. was spoiled. The bottle, when IL
broke, gouged out one eye, smashed In
her nose and split her cheek. On top OF
all that, in Cranson's shack she devel-
oped blood poisoning which finished the
job. How Doc brought her through.
Heaven only knows. But he did. AND
then, lust as she was beginning to get
around, he discovered she was going TO
have a baby. That was facer.
when the kid came he persuaded a
friend of his from the circus to take
it down to Maryland and leave it on
your doorstep. The address was on a
letter in James pocket" DEPRESSING for
a moment, "You never knew, I guess,
that Jane had found out who your folks
were and had been writing to them
ANONYMOUSLY, limiting all sorts of things
about you. To Judge from that one
sample which we found among Gran
sons things when we searched the
shack in the woods. they must have
been cruel letters, tantalizing, as only
Jane could make them. Explains what

the head, Ito get back to Doc. He was
obsessed with the idea Of having Jane

How?

Seth Toby said. addressing himself to
the master of Berkshire Towers:
"Iha convinced Cranson will never
say a rational word again. If there's
any more to his story you'll have to
fill it in for us Yourself"
For the first time the millionaire
looked his companions squarely in the
face.

Special Legislative Session
Expensive

Even without the multitudinous
jobholders of other sessions, the
extra session of the Maryland Leges-
lature, called for July 20 to change
registration dates, which conflict this
year with Jewish holidays, the one
day session of the General Assembly
will cost the State a goodly sum.
1t is estimated the cost of gather
ing the lat Legislators and keeping
them at Annapolis for the one day
which, it is believed, will be long
enough to change the registration
law, will be $3.50
Of this, the most will be expended
for mileage, especially for the Dele
gates and Senators who live in
counties distant from Annapolis.
The salary paid Senators and Dele
gates IS day. will total $735 for the
one-day session. The necessary
printing bills will run, it was said, to
the neighborbood of $500. About
ten standing desk officers of the two
houses will be necessary, and their
pay will run somewhere below $3.50
for the day.

Union are preparing the program for
the conference which will take up

means of preventing and eradicatinp
pests and diseases affecting plants
and animals, and scientific methods

Responsibility for Prohibition en-
forcement has passed from the
Treasury Department to the Depart
ment Of Justice .of the United States.
The Attorney-General Mr.. Mitchell,
has indicated his sympathy with the
law and his purpose to place its en-
forcement in hands of men similarly
sympathetic. Mr.. Youngquist, his
assistant, is also dry. The director
chosen, Mr.. Amos w. w. Woodcock,
of Maryland, is a convinced prohi-
bitionist from a state where there
are few prohibitionists in public life.
Mr.. Jones, his assistant, and Mr..
Yellowley are men of integrity,
courage and ability.
Many problems must be solved in
securing coordination and.cooperation
of all agencies connected with prohi-
bition enforcement. The organiza-
ton under the Treasury Department
insures that these problems will be
approached with intelligence and sin
cerity.

Farmers Marketing Conference

The University of Maryland invites
all farmers in the State to attend a
Farmers Marketing Conference at
the University, College Park, Nd,
August IL to Is inclusive.
The plan of the Conference is to
furnish opportunity to discuss cooper
alive marketing in all of its phases, as
well as the general marketing of
farm products.
This Conference will provide an
opportunity to present and discuss
the policies of the Federal Farm
Board and the adaptation of the
Agricultural Marketing Act to the
marketing of agricultural commodi-
ties in Maryland.
This is the first event of this kind
that has been held in Maryland.
For number of years, interest in
applying up-to-date methods of mer-
chandizing to the sale of farm pro-
ducts has been increasing. The
planning and arrangement of this
conference is in response to the de-
sire on the part of farm people to
develop their marketing methods in
accordance with the developments
which have taken place in other
lines of business, and to better meet
the changed conditions under which
we all are living, as compared with
a number of years ago.

A Good Horse

The Lamp, official publication OF
the Standard Oil Company of New
Jersey, says the movement toward
increased state taxation of gasoline
is rapidly getting out of hand. In
Guiding estimated levies of $3.50, 600
900 for 1880, motorists will have paid
81, 759, 100000 in gasoline taxes in
five years.
In 1929, registration fees averaged
approximately $13 car, gasoline
taxes nearly $18. This year the lat
ter figure will be increased to $40.
The Lamp says the gas tax was
sound in principle but 'like many
another good horse, it is being rid
den to DEATH

Governor Calls Extra Session
OF Legislature

Governor Richie on Saturday is
sued proclamation calling the Cen
eral Assembly of Maryland into ex-
traordinary session July 20, to amend
the dates for registration.
The Governor acted after more
than weeks investigation of sit
uation created by the conflict of the
registration dates with two of the
most important religious holidays Of
the Jewish faith.
The Governor said he has taken
the proper steps to assure himself
that the legislators will limit them
selves to the one subject and that il
can and will meet, pass the neces-
sary law and adjourn in one day.
This will not be popular session
for job hunters, as only the Senators,
members of the House and the nee
essary desk officials will attend.
Doorkeepers and numerous other
paid attaches who swell the numbers
flocking to Annapolis for regular
sessions will not be needed for the
one-day session.
Pointing out that the State should
not permit any large group of its
people to be disfranchised by circum-
stances wholly exceptional and un-
foreseen and beyond their control,
as is the case in the coincidence of
the registration dates with the days
sacred to the Jewish people, the
Governor declared he has not acted
because ofany great demand or pres
sure from any source.
After consideration of the terms of
the law in the case, the Governor
believes the best course to follow
would be an amendment of the ex-
listing law, providing for the sub
stitution this year of new registration
days for September % and "a and
October 7 and 8, which are set by
statute. The former two coincide
with the observance of Rosh Hash
ana, and the latter dates are the
same as the Feast of Tabernacles.

New Threat Of CONSUMPTION

In the closing days of the recent
session of Congress resolution was
passed providing for a commission to
study means of conscripting private
property for public use in case of
war. The Commission is to consist
of four members of the House of
Representatives, four Senators, the
Secretaries of War, Navy, Agricul-
ture, Commerce and Labor, and the
Attorney-General. The Commission
is to- report its conclusions and rec
concentrations by the time Con-
gress convenes. in December, 1881.
The Commission shall not consider
and not report upon the CONSUMPTION
of labor.
The resolution makes no reference
to provision for immediate mobiliza-
ton and it definitely excludes consid-
Grafton of the conscription of labor.
But it is highly important that Ameri-
can citizens know the background of
the study about to be undertaken,
and be prepared to examine critically
any recommendations before they be-
come law. Otherwise this resolu-
ton may easily turn out to be the
first step toward the establishment
of universal CONSUMPTION, with its
consequent paralyzing effect both on
freedom of opinion and conscience
and on the establishment of perman-
ent peace.
The resolution now passed has
about it an air of innocence. But, in
viewsof its history, the following edi-
torial paragraph from The Army
and Navy Journal of July 5, 1880,
is enlightening:
"Another Commission, a Joint
Congressional Commission at that,
has been created to make National
Defense Study. Its purpose is to
consider an amendment to the Con-
sttution providing for the taking of
private property for public use in
time of war. The design is to take
profiteering out of war. The result
will be if action occur, to make every
industry serve the country against an
enemy. Proposed first by Congress
man McSwain, of South Carolina,
reintroduced by Congressman Vain
wright, of New York, and then by
Congressman Shell, of New York, it
has been variously modified until, as
enacted, it applies only to property
aud does not permit consideration of
the CONSUMPTION of labor. 1t is our
view that in time of war everything,
mau, factory, and farm power should
be conscripted. Modern war de-
mands universal service, and the
exemption of any one class is in
violation OF the preamble of the Con-
stitution to provide for the common
defense. F."
This indicates that CONSUMPTION is
not yet dead. 1t would be tragic for
the citizens of the United States to
lay upon themselves the yoke of
transcription, with its paralyzing
effect on both freedom of conscience
and efforts to establish permanent
peace. The finding Of the Commits
sion appointed under this resolution
will be studied with interest.
