THE WORLD DISARMAMENT
CONFERENCE

On February 2, 1882, there will be
held a conference for World Disarm-
.ament at Geneva, composed of the
World Powers, in which our own coun-
try will participate.
Successful conferences are not ar
ranged over night by delegates sit
ting behind closed doors. These del
egates are mere representatives of
their fellow-citizens, and if these cit
liens take no intelligent interest in
the subject matter of the conference
90. their representatives cannot act
with that assurance and confidence
which alone can lead to q successful
issue.-Pierre Del. Boal, Department
of State, Oct. "a, 1881.
We are constantly being informed
by the press of the pressure being
brought to bear upon the European
governments by their peoples for a
real disarmament program. We in
this country must express ourselves
at once in no uncertain terms so that
our delegates sent to this conference
act to that end with the full knowl-
edge it is the will of our people.

teen others in 1887. Of this acreage
he retained 5000 acres for the Society
of Jesus and the use of the church. 1t
is well to remember, in this connec-
ton, that Lord Baltimore at this time
was member of the Catholic church.
1t must likewise be remembered, as
before stated, that he was fearful that
the establishment of church domain
within his Colony, the soil of which
had been granted him by the charter,
would, to that extent, lessen his au-
thority and control and take from
his certain proportion of his reve-
nue., as the Jesuits claimed for church
property freedom from taxation and
for those who managed the property
exemption from military and civil
service.
Another source of conflict was the
refusal of the church to permit Lord
Baltimore to send into Maryland Sec
ular clergy whose services he re-
quired and demanded. But through all
these misunderstanding (for it is
now agreed that such they were) Lord
Baltimore's loyalty to his adopted
church cannot be questioned.

A JOB FOR EVERYBODY

In the city of Grand Rapids, Michi-
gan, everybody has job, according to
a story in the current issue of The
American Magazine. The city is TAX
ing care of it's unemployment and the
charity problem by giving. everyone
a job in helping to beautify the town
and its parks and paying for the labor
with food and clothing.
Within the past several years many
ugly spots within the city limits have
been beautifed, and according to the
author of the article, who has talked
with number of the workers, they
would rather work for their living
than have it handed out to them in
bread lines and other forms of char
ity.
In general, that is the idea of the
Central Relief Committee for Gar
rett county. Finding work such as
the Identification of Washington
Spring Park for those needing food
and clothing. 1t will at least keep
them and their families going until
something better turns up and pre-
serve the self-respect and maintain
the spirit of the individuals while they
are in need.

"A MERRY CHRISTMAS

Christmas, that joyous period of
the year when every face radiates the
spirit of goodwill, is with us again.
People are joyous at this holiday
season because of good friends, the
unselfish spirit of giving, and the
knowledge of the attainment of an
other year of human endeavor, with
its Universities, experiences and per-
haps, accomplishments.
Certainly every human being has
some reason for happiness at this fes-
tive season, if it is only gratitude for
the kind word of a friend.
While the gifts may not be as ex-
pensive as in former years, the spirit
of giving will be as sincere as it was
in the days of the early Christian era.
The Republican extends most sin
cere wish to its many friends for hap
piness, health and prosperity during
this merry season and the coming new
year.

An Interesting Fact
ROMAN CATHOLICS

This is the first of a series of arti-
cles on the Roman Catholic church in
the early days of Maryland as Col
ony. The next article on the subject
will appear in a later issue.
Roman Catholics, from the time of
the founding and settlement of the
Colony of Maryland, have ever played
san important part in Maryland.
While the exact number of the &C
tual first settlers of the Colony cannot
be definitely stated, it is probable that
aside from those bound to service.
who were mainly Protestants, the
majority were Catholics.
In the early beginning all faiths
dwelt together in harmony under the
benefcent reign of Lord Baltimore.
Protestants and Catholics alike must
be credited with the desire "to live
and let live" and worked with one
accord for the upbuilding of the Col
ony.
This condition existed, outwardly at
least Except for minor clashes), I'M
til the controversy between Lord Bal
timore and the Jesuits arose. At this
time the Jesuits, following the GUS
tomary practice of the church in
Roman Catholic countries, attempted
to acquire land for the use of the
church directly from the Indians in
stead of applying to the proprietary,
who under the grant of the King
claimed dominion over all the land
within the boundaries contained in
the charter as one of his cherished
prerogatives.
Under a Papal bull, this land, if ac-
quired, would have been exempt from
the jurisdiction of civil authorities.
This would have set up in Maryland
what would have been tantamount to
separate and distinct principality,
similar to the Vatican in Rome, which
would have been contrary to a strict
Interpretation of Lord Baltimore's
idea of religious liberation in the Col
ony.
During this period of differences be-
tween the proprietary and the Jesuit
missionaries, the latter were under
the leadership of Rev. Philip Fisher,
a Spaniard, born in Madrid, who held
title to a large part of the property of
the Catholic church under the name
of Thomas Copley.
Under the conditions of Planta-
tions" of 1886, Copley made de-
mand, and was granted, 2S,500 acres
of land for transporting to Maryland

Eventual subsidizing Of medical
treatment for rural communities
by the State as the only prac-
tical method of alleviating the
present uneven distribution of
doctors was the recent opinion
of Alexander S. Begg, dean Of
Boston UniverSity's School of
Medicine.
His opinion was in reply to a
question as to what the institu-
ton, of which he is head, was
doing to send young doctors to
rural sections of the country
where their services were so much
needed.
In ny foreign countries, the
dean pointed out, the problem of
distribution of medical aid was
solved by a system of subsidizing
the young medical school gradu-
ate who, upon completing his uni
VerSity training, was sent by his
state to the country as a phySi-
clan on salary for a limited
period.
