ROBB POINTS OUT FACTS


of long continuance in office for
a high public executive and the
evils arising therefrom; MAX
ing a plea for humanitarian leg
islation and keeping the public
school system Of the counties
out of politics, Mayor VIM. F.
Broening, of Baltimore, Repub-
lican candidate for Governor of
Maryland, concluded his campaign in
Garrett county at the Maryland The
atre, Oakland, Monday night, follow
ing whirlwind campaign to every
section Of the county during the day.
On the tour of the county the Mayor
was accompanied by Mr.. Robb, candi-
date for attorney general; w. Newton
Jackson, candidate for State Comp
troller; DR.. Charles S. Warner, candi-
date for Clerk of the Court of APP
peals; Congressman Frederick N.
Zihlman; nearly all the candidates for
local offices; the Crellin Boys Band
and members of the Republican
County Committee. The party was
piloted through the county by Sheriff
W. D. Casteel.
At the various stops made during
the day interested crowds awaited the
coming of the candidates and listened
with attention while the matters up
permost in the minds of the voters
were being discussed by the speakers.
In his Oakland address, Mayor
Broening dwelt at some length upon
the natural beauties which confront
ed the party at every turn in the
highway as they were journeying be-
tween points; to the generosity and
the intelligence of the people with
whom he had come in contact during
the day and made a plea for the ed
ucation of the children so that when
they arrive at the self-supporting
age they may be equipped to face the
problems of life.
Executives, after a long continu-
ance in Office, first become arrogant,
then Indifferent and then careless"
Mayor Broening said, "and evils aris-
ing from this carelessness are bound
to creep out. But Governor Richie
wouldn't even listen to the pleas of
those within his own party against
the long continuance, hence the evil
of theft from the various departments
of the State resulted with no check
at hand to detect them until the sums
stolen had become staggering"
Mayor Broening pointed out how
the power had slowly been taken from
the Senate in a number of appoint
ments that the Governor was now
making without official sanction of
that body. He compared the school
system of Baltimore City, where pol
itics plays no part, to the school sys-
tenn of the counties where politics, he
said, was apparent on every hand.
In concluding his speech Mayor
Broening touched on the need for hu-
manitarian legislation such as making
provision for old age, the mentally de-
ficient, the crippled, the preservation
of the family as an institution, and
any measures for the advancement
of the people.
RObb Points Out Facts.
David A. Robb, Republican candi-
date for Attorney General, then
brought out number Of interesting
points on the appropriation of funds,
the State Roads scandal, the dismis-
sal of Daniel Carroll, the Grain High
way celebration, the tax question, the
state school system and the State pay
roll.
Taking as his authority the Mary
land Bill of Rights, which states that
rotation in office is good thing, and
that long continuance in Office is
a dangerous thing, Mr.. Robb urged
change in State administration. With
in the memory of every school child in
Maryland at the present time there
had been no other governor except
Richie, Mr.. Robb pointed out.
Answering the charge of William S.
Gordy that the Republicans were con-
Quoting whispering campaign" Mr..
Robb said that the Baltimore papers
were not giving to the people of the
state the knowledge of the things that
are openly being said and proven. On
the other hand, he said, the papers, es-
pecially the Baltimore Sun, are sup
pressing everything of any promin-
ence and putting in the trivial mat
tiers.
81 am not denoucing the Democratic
party as such," Mr.. Robb said, "but l
am denouncing the little band in pow
er in the State. During the admins
