the exception of negligible number
of Eastern States. He did make a
formidable showing, receiving 176
electoral votes to McKinley's 271, and
he carried % of the as states.
1t was the scare of 1896, together
with remembrances of financial chaos
following the Civil War, that brought
about the prevailing custom in this
country of writing long-term obliga-
tions payable in gold. In most coun-
tries such obligations are payable in
currency.
A repetition of that scare would be
disastrous to business. It's fulfllment
would mean a run on banks that would
produce Nationwide panic.
Nobody is advocating that this
country go off gold. Few advocated
such a deliberate policy in the Euro
pean countries that went through the
terrific distress of initiation after the
war. The danger is more insidious
1t comes from proposals, such as
went through the last Democratic
House, to print paper money to meet
hugh obligations like the bonus, or tc
pay for extravagant expenditures on
public works.
The dollar became suspect in Eu-
rope last spring when the Democratic
House began running wild. Europe
had seen the outcome of such reck-
lessness too often in it's own expert
ence in the last decade.
The country is assured now Presi-
dent Hoover would meet such emer-
gencies not merely by his words, but
by the way he has successfully met
them in the past. 1t can not know
how Gov. Roosevelt would stand up
under such strain; and it does know
the dangerous record of his party in
Congress.
The question put up to the voters in
the election is whether they can afford
to take the risk of a change from
certainty to uncertainty in so vital
a matter at this time.

Study of Coal Mining Industry
Is Completed -

The first comprehensive study ever
made of the coal mining industry of
Maryland has just been completed
and presented in published form shy
the Maryland Development Section
of the Baltimore Association of Com
merce. The survey report contains
over 275 pages of data on coal min
ing in Maryland and is copiously il
Illustrated by charts and graphs, show
ing significant trends and develop
ments in the industry.
For the year 1929, the survey re-
veals that Maryland's entire semi
bituminous coal production Of $685.
$50 tons was approximately one-half
million tons less than the total con-
sumption of this class of coal in the
State. In other words Maryland, in
1929, consumed 3,237,744 tons of semi
bituminous coal, or 588,764 tons more
than was actually mined in the State
in that year.

Revival In Progress

A revival has been in progress at
the Sand Flat tabernacle for the past
two weeks. The meetings have been
well attended, with Evangelist J. R.
Ashcroft, recently ordained minister
of the Assemblies, in charge. Gaddiel
Benson, of Philadelphia, is the CO.
worker. The tabernacle was well
filled last Sunday evening when the
evangelist spoke on eternal damna-
ton. The young men are also musi-
clans and they are planning special
programs for the coming meetings.
Everyone is cordially invited to at
tend. George Burkhart, recently of
North Carolina, is the pastor of the
tabernacle. ~.

wanted to see it all, and from a
grandstand seat.
Grandstand seats are all right
sometimes, but not when a grease
gun lets go. Two more degrees south

caught me square in the eye. AS it

It's perfectly all right to get a
sack of Red Cross flour if the larder
is low, with no work in sight, and a
family that is hungry, but sending
in ones kids and gathering up seven
sacks or more when the family is not
destitute, is using up a lot of crust
believe me. That was done at Oak

age of charity and the sympathy of
other people.

He made his first political speech on

now point him out to strangers with

celebrated brother-in-law. He stated
confidentially that he didn't have to
kiss any babies.
1t would be just too bad about 9 or
10 years from now, if they would
nickname babies of town, who had
trees planted in their honor, "historic

THURSDAY, OCTOBER Of, 1882
JUST A DEMAGOGUE

Franklin u. Roosevelt, Judging
from his so-called farm speeches, has
well earned the designation as
"demagogue" that has been used to
characterize him by former Governor
Alfred E. Smith.
Candidate Roosevelt has not hest
tated to use the name he bears to
mislead people into believing that he
is very closely related to the late
Theodore Roosevelt. He has, by the
use of "weasel words" sought to con-
vey the idea that he is a Republican
who has turned Democrat. Neither
of these poses of Candidate Roosevelt
is based on fact. He is a fifth cousin
of the late Col. Roosevelt. He has
never been a Republican. He is an
internationalist, a staunch advocate
of the League of Nations, when
Democratic candidate for vice-presi-
dent, and free trader. In other
words, he is the direct opposite to the
late Theodore Roosevelt.
Candidate Roosevelt, while always
talking about what he has done to aid
the farmers of New York, has neglec-
ted to take into account the fact that
he has done nothing whatever to help
them. He claims credit for the Com
mission Merchants Bonding Act for
which he did nothing to help advance.
He refused to accept the suggestion
that the State tax of $13,500,000, that
is largely borne by farmers, be re-
moved. However, he countered with
a proposal to reduce income taxes,
which largely helped the wealthy. He
vetoed bill, passed to relieve tax
payers in rural districts of the burden
of paying for the right of way for
the rebuilding of State highways.
With the dairymen of the State of
New York in dire distress, he refused
to do anything. He did not suggest
any move that might assist them in
solving their problems.
Up to the present time Candidate
Roosevelt's sole suggestion to help
American farmers has been a plan
for reforestation. He says this policy
would not only turn much waste land
into productive use, but that it would
give employment to million men.
Those who know about reforestation
report million men working one day
could plant a billion trees. This is
more than five times as many trees
as there are in all the nurseries, pub
lie or privately owned, of the United
States.
AS if these suggestions were not
enough to brand Candidate Roosevelt
with the name "demagogue," he COM
pleted the picture by telling the farm
ers of the nation that he lived on a
farm at Hyde Park, New York. This
imaginary farm actually consists of
mansion of 25 rooms, stable of
eight riding horses, an eight car
garage, modern and elaborate flower
gardens and cultivated woodland.
No farm crops are raised for any
market on this vast estate.
Certainly, in view of the record, no
one can place the slightest faith in
Candidate Roosevelt's promises to
American farmers or anyone else.

If the enterpriSing mayor Of Day. tona Beach, E. H. Armstrong, has his way about it, there will be a carnival of speed kings on the ocean speedway there next Febru- ary when moon and tide combine to smooth out the worlds most famous racing stretch.
 Sir Malcolm Campbell, far from satisfied that his 253968 miles per hour record is the best he can do, has promised tentatively to return for his third straight battle with Old Pop Time.
 Norman Wizard" Smith, who has been making gestures at Camp bells record on Ninety Mile Beach in New Zealand, will be urged to pack up his Napier-motored ma- chine and ship it to the United States.
 On top of this, J. M White, Phil adelphia manufacturer, whose ill., fated Triplex once set a worlds mile record at Daytona, is under stood to be planning a new speed creation, and the old master him self, none other than Barney Old field, talks with enthusiasm about returning to Daytona at the wheel of new Miller racing car.
 The chances, of course, are against all of these prospects bear ing fruit, Nevertheless, the con- sistency with which the British drivers and British cars have been coming over here to take the speed records apart finally has prompted some homebred patriotic activity
 "We can build cars just as fast or faster" declares Oldfield. Why let these fellows keep coming over here and make us look like back numbers at the game we started. It's positively embarrassing
 From the way Campbell talked before leaving, however, it would lock like a good idea for the Amer jeans to figure on starting at 300 m.p.h. and working up. Sir Nal colm thinks he may be travelling that fast himself in another year
 If he does they may have to add a few miles to the ocean speedway. Eleven or twelve miles won't be enough in which to get the maxi mum acceleration, at that rate.

 BOWLING PERCH

By winning TWO out of three games last night the Badgers top pied the Antelopes from the lead in the Elks' mixed bowling tourna- ment, and the Beavers are now on top. The Elephants climbed bit by taking the odd game from the Lions in the other match of the evening.
 Mike Bavard and Art Bringdale, of the Badgers, put on friendly two-man bout for scoring honors, with the latter winning out on totals 587 to 581 and his comrade scoring POS to the others POT in the third game.
 Mrs. Williams, of the Lions, tied Mrs. McLean's high-total mark set last Friday when she rolled 509 Mrs. Bavard made the best score for single game, 190 Miss Fay lor's 436 was her best performance of the season.
 The Badgers tied the Tigers rec ord score of $50 for one game and set new tournament mark of 2375 for three games.

ened, especially in the relief corps, and he has some good right hand prospects to go along with his troupe of portsiders.
 Exceptionally good training con- ditions have been the necessary spark to all fire to the enthusiasm, for the last time the Giants trained on bhe west coast, rain kept them out of uniform throughout most of their stay.
 McGraw is putting great deal of faith in his new talent. He has a strong inclination to use Leonard Koenecke, purchased from Indian apolis, in his starting outfield. He plans to use Johnny Vergez, at third, and is anxious to see what Sam Gibson, Harold Schumacher and some of the other new hurlers can do.

PEPPER WILL
 BE HELD DOWN
to Steal Only on Signals, Card Pilot
 Declares

BRADENTON, Fla, March 22.- The wild horse of the Osages' isn't going to run vii don the base paths this season.
 While Manager Gaby Streetb has lot of respect for Pepper Martins speed, which virtually stole world title for the St. Louis Cardinals last fall, he has let it be known this speed will be controlled and di- rected.
 Martin is good base runner, the old sergeant said as he directed the champions workout here, but he'll steal only on signals"
 To Wine Games
 T want to help him all can and I'll give him every opportunity to steal base, but the fundamental object of this ball club is to win games, and stolen bases won't butter any parsnips for us unless We are winning"
 Contending it would be folly" to take the blanket off" Pepper and let him run his head off, Gabby pointed out that there are other fast and more experienced base runners on the Cardinal club.
 Martins stil young ball player is the way the sergeant put it, without the judgment of Frisch or some of the older players. And

think the Giants will be much im- proved over last year.
 St. Louis Opponent
 Naturally, St. Louis is the team to beat. We will be pretty we'll for tified in all positions, provided Hughie Critz gets along with his arm all right, and We should be up among them at the finish.
 The Chicago Cubs also figure to be strong first division contenders and Brooklyn may furnish trouble. :"
 Three things are responsible for McGraw's optimism. He has Critz's word for it that his arm is inn proved, and should his star second baseman falter Fred Lindstrom has been showing up to good advant- age. The absence of both of these players, due to injuries kept the Giants manager in hot water over his second base problem last year.
 Pitching Staff Better
 McGraw believes his pitching staff has been materially strength

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., March 9. Little Ralph Engebretson won his varsity M in basketball at the University of Minnesota for two seasons. and was within three games of the end of his third term before he earned a regular" berth.

 Street has hopes that Joel Hunt, outfield recruit, will turn out to be another fly chaser who will make q reputation for himself by speed on the bases.

Bahe CoIlects On Golf

Golfing has helped add years to Babe Ruth's baseball career, for two big reasons.
 First, it has given the Babe a healthful hobby. Second, it has done more than anything else to strengthen his legs.
 On top of that he is ambitious to become a tournament star. He isn't consistent enough now to hold ms own for more than a round or two in fast company.
 Babe is a better match than medal player but his game unques- tionably has improved steadily

Campbell Near Sighted

Campbell doesn't like to discuss 1t, but the fact is that the noted British driver is near-sighted, as a result of having been knocked un- conscious several times in accidents. He has difficulty reading but at long range his sight is perfect.
 Since it's far-sightedness that counts when you are moving along at better than four miles a minute, thecaptain's peculiar condition does not come under the heading of a hazard. He isn't worried about it..
