FINLAND MAKES PEACE

FINLAND NAMES PEACE
On March 7, 1918, Germany and
the new government of Finland sign
ed treaty of peace, and it was re-
ported that the Finn government was
considering Prince Oscar Of the house
of Hohenzollern as king.
The treaty provided for the with
drewal of German troops in Finland.
Two Russian transports were at
tackled and sunk by German de-
stroyers off the Aland islands. The
Germans claimed the transports had
refused to heed their warnings.
The Soviet government protested
alleged hostile acts by German troops
in Russia.
The western front was unusually
quiet as both Allied and German
armies prepared for the expected
German thrust at Paris and the
channel ports.

Governor 'Bilr Murray

Politics has surrounded Alfalfa
Bill with a glamor of radicalism
that he does not radiate. He is not
spectacular. He does not rant, stride
nor illuminate. He is not blatant or
1ingoistic. He is rather more Of a
dreamer and political philosopher
than a resounding crusader. Like
a modern John the Baptist or Twen-
tieth century Savonarola, he Is calling
sinners to repentance, urging them
to make straight the path and to
leave the devious by-ways OF unholy
alliances.
The impression he made in Bis
marck was decidedly contrary to
what was generally anticipated.
Those who came for a political show.
to see q super demagogue in action.
setting class against class and Dor
dering on communism or socialism,
were agreeably disappointed.
They saw a long, lanky southerner
with q Texas drawl rise from his
seat to give what proved to be any
thing but radical address. His
erudition and evidences of deep study
of law, history and philosophy left
his hearers rather speeches.. They
came, many of them, out OF curiosity
to see another political acrobat do
his stuff. They did not expect any
one dubbed alfalfa to discuss the
Punic wars and point to the glory
that was Greece or expatiate on the
grandeur that was Rome.
He extolled the constitution with
an eloquence that would have done
credit to Chief Justice Hughes or any
great constitutional lawyer. In fact
"Uncle" Joe Cannon once referred to
Murray as one Of Americas great
constitutional lawyers. Other refer
ences he made revealed Murray as a
man of wide reading and his po-
litical doctrine, while not at all
times convincing. was far from ra-
<iical or red. He denounced Boil
shevism with the same ardor that he
did Wall Street and the malefactors
Of great wealth.
To q good many persons he came
closer to expressing their desires and
ideas Of government than does the
average calnpaigner. His was a
tomespun philosophy but one which
was easy to understand.
It may be that we are used to more
political fireworks out here than they
are in Oklahoma, but the fact re-
mains that many who expected to
hear bitterness and abuse heaped up
on the Republican president and up
on his rivals for the Democratic
nomination were disappointed. The
references to Hoover were few and
for q campaign speech-charitable.
First there was biting irony in his
reference to what one could expect
from q farm boy who was born in
Iowa, educated in California and who
had then spent Is years abroad, de-
pendent on a paycheck from home.
Later there was the reference to poor
old Hoover" That was about all.
It is more than possible that, as
a result of Murray addresses in this
state, we may see larger vote in the
Democratic primaries this year-and
don't bet too much money that Muir
ray will not win this states delegates
to the Democratic national conven-
ton.

Section SO of Article SO. Public Code
of General Laws of Maryland provides
it to be unlawful for any person to
hunt any muskrat within the State of
Maryland, or have the meat or pelts in
possession if trapped, caught or killed
between the 18th day of March and
the 1st day of January following in

sive, whether same are trapped,
caught or killed within the State of
Maryland or any other state, territory
or country; provided, however, that
this shall not prohibit the possession
of skins or such animals for business
purposes when dried and cured.
We receive inquiries each, season
relative to the legality of shipments
of muskrat pelts and meat to this
market for sale from states which
open the season for the taking of
muskrats prior to January LIST. The
Act which have quoted above is very
necessary for the protection of the
muskrat in our own state and posi-

State To Have Exhibit
At Chicago World Fair

Three hundred years of Maryland
history, commencing with the landing
of the first settlers under Lord Bal
timore in 1888 and 1884, will be pic
tured at Chicago's 1898 Worlds Fair
"A Century of Progress.
This was disclosed last Thursday by
j. Alexis Shriver, of Bel-Air. Mary
land, who visited the Exposition as
the representative of Governor Albert
Edward Wilton Dom, Jr., architect of
the restoration of Wakefield, George
Washington's birthplace in Westmore-
land County, Virginia.
Governor Richie has asked me to
report to him on the Century of Pro.
gress Exposition and the opportunl.
ties it offers for a state exhibit" said
Mr.. Shriver.
Il was surprised at the great pro-
gress that has been made for the Fair
and was particularly impressed with
the architecture of the Travel and
Transport Building and the Hall of
Science. 1t is utterly different from
anything ! have ever seen before.
Maryland is greatly interested in
the Exposition and will undoubtedly
have an interesting exhibit of it's his
toric points of interest. Next Novem-
Der, the Ter-Centennary of Maryland's
foundation will begin, and the Cen
tury of Progress offers splendid OPP
portunity to advertise it."
