Editor and Manaicer SATURDAY, SEPT. 18, 1920 For President JAMES M. COX. For Vice-President FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT. For United States Senate JOHN WALTER SMITH. For Congressman CARVILLE D. BENSON. Harding- is making progress backward. Men who, get rich quck usually do it on other people's money. The hour has arrived for someone to think up a twentieth amendment. Interest in the election so far seems to be most intense among candidates. Wake up, Messrs. Commissioners, and appoint that Factory Site Commission. The span of our national existence reaches from the age of home-spun to home-brew. Now that women will vote political managers must secure some device to keep mice away from the polls. So far the campaign has been dry enough, it seems to us, to satisfy even the Prohibitionists. Mr. Bryan, having suffered severe sit backs, now frankly wishes defeat upon the Democratic party. Gasoline has gone up another cent. The public always has to pay John D.'s charitable gifts at Christmas. Maryland's senior Senator, John Walter Smith, deserves your vote at the November election. Get the registration dates fixed in your mind and remember that if you do not register you cannot vote. A gardener is a man who raises a few things; a farmer, a man who raises many things, and the middleman, one who raises everything. Ireland seems to be fast getting ready to serve, notice that Mexico cannot expect a walkover as the leading-land of disorder and slaughter. • Now that Mexico's new president has been sworn in, it's up to his family to go ahead with the funeral arrangements. Now that the right of franchise has been given to the women they must, exercise it. They must register and vote. A vote for enson is a vote for progress, and assurance that the Second Congressional District will be ably represented in Congress. Bootlegging is said to have become one of the chief industries now, and not only its captains, but also its high privates are profiteering to the limit. One of the candidates for President will not make any rear-end platform of front-porch schedules this year. The Warden of the Federal Prison at Atlanta won't let him. What -fcould our grandfathers have thought of us if we had told them in 1876 that in 1920 women would vote because they could, and men wouldn't get drunk because they couldn't. Are the* people of Baltimore county going to be foolish and support Price-Watson & Dietz's pet scheme, the new charter, thereby wrecking this rich and prosperous community. # The United States Government ha# not asked Mexico to send back American draft slackers. Probably it is thought living in Mexico is punishment enough for them. In this national campaign Demo-Grats^ Republicans and Prohibitionists find themselves in unprecedented accord—all being anxious to elect an Ohio.man as President. A hearse, apparently enroute to a funeral at Greenwich, Conn., was halted by dry agents and found to contain a coffin filled with booze. Thus was the burial of John Barleycorn once more prevented. Major Randolph Barton's feeble attempts to uphold the new charter, of which he is the sponsor, with the other three members of the charter board as mere onlookers, is a clever scheme in strategy by an ex-military officer. DEMOCRATS SHOULD BE "UP AND DOING." / The Republicans are "crowing" lustily over the results* of the recent election in Maine, and are freely predicting Harding's election on the strength of the oft-refuted theory that "as Maine goes, so does the Nation." The Democrats of Maine did, unmistakably, receive a good drubbing, but we are not inclined to think that the result there will hamper their chances of carrying the nation. On the contrary, we are inclined to think the result in Maine will be an impetus to the Democrats in other States to do more effective work between now and the day of election. Governor Cox is now in the midst of a strenuous campaign in the Western States and is making votes wherever he goes. He is a forceful speaker and an aggressive campaigner. He has put the Republicans on the defensive .by his expose of their unconscionable campaign funds, and his advocacy o.f the ratification of the Treaty of Var-seilles, with the League of Nations covenant, has won him the support of many of the independent Republicans throughout the country. Senator Harding's peace plan is a sham, pure and simple, unworthy of the support of patriotic citizens of the United States. The only criticism -we have to offer concerning the Democratic campaign thuai far is the disposition of paHy leaders, in some sections of the country at least, to let Governor Cox bear the burden 6f the fight. As the head of the ticket, it is only .natural that he should lead the fight, but with so much ground to cover, and with such limited time within which to cover it, he must, in order to win, have the hearty co-operation of party -workers! throughout the nation. The Democrats of Maryland, it seems to us, have been more or less lethargic. They should be up and doing. We have no* doubt that Maryland can,be kept in the Democratic column if the proper kind of a fight is made, and all good Democrats owe it to their country, as well as their party, to besttir themselves and see that no stone is left unturned to maintain the supremacy of the Democratic party in the national administration. Under the leadership of Woodrow Wilson, the National Democracy has made a record during the past eight years of which every individual Democrat should feel proud', and while the cabal of Republican Senator have succeeded, for thfe time being, in blocking the ratification of the Treaty of Peace, we have no doubt that the American people will vindicate the President at the polls in November, and choose as his successor a Democrat who will see that his program of peace among the nations is carried out. Let every Democrat, therefore, do his duty! ©>$*^§<^^$^^^^^^^^© I TEACHING FORCE FOR 1920-21 THE WOMEN SHOULD FIRST REGISTER. While we are aware that the majority of women in Baltimore county were very indifferent, if not opposed, to the ratification of the Woman's) Suffrage Amendment to the Federal Constitution, now that the Amendment has become effective, and the women are afforded the opportunity of becoming registered voters, we hope that none of them will shirk their duty as "voting" citizens. We make this appeal particularly to the white women of Baltimore county. So far as'our "Cullud Sisters" are concerned, they may be depended upon to exercisfe their newly acquired right of suffrage without any particular urging, as well as a few white women, of the lower type, who will barter their votes to further their personal ends. The great body of white women of Baltimore county, by reason of their intelligence, their refinement and honesty of purpose, ought to make the very best type of voting citizens. While the election machinery may at this time seem more or less complicated to them, it is. simple enough when understood, and the first and most important thing for the women to do is to locate the registration offices in the several precincts in which they live and see that their names are duly regis tered. This cannot be done by proxy. The women must appear In person and answer certain questions bearing upon their right to register, one of which has a bearing upon their age. While .this question may be embarrassing to some, it should deter no one from registering. While every applicant for suffrage must have attained a minimum age of 21 years, there is absolutely no maximum age fixed by law, and while the question has not, so far as -we know, been legally determined, we are inclined to think the officers of registration will be satisfied to put down most any figure given, without a murmur, if assured that the applicant has passed the twenty-first milestone. The first day for registration in the county is Tuesday, September 28, and every woman who can possibly do so should register that day. The next registration day is fixed by law a week later, and at the special session of the Legislature, to be convened shortly, additional registration days may be provided for, but to be on the safe side we advise the women to take advantage of their first opportunity on September 28. The Jeffersonian would advise its male readers of the Democratic faith to see that every woman in their respective families, entitled to register, does so on September 28. It may be in order to accomplish this that the males will have to take a turn at the washing machine, or perhaps mind the babies, but it's a worthy cause, and they can well afford to make the sacrifice. On Trial. Customer—I'm mighty particular about how my hair is cut. Do you think you can do a good job on it? Barber—Well, I'm reckoned fairly decent, but if you want I'll do one side of your head first so you can see how von look.—American Legion Weekly.

"WItile the executive station is one of generally accepted distinction, to me it does not foe-sPessk elevation above my fellows. The relation of private eitiseinship established an equal b**se, hut when one assumes the duties incumbent upon this office a proper conception of the situation makes him a servant of the people, and unless he responds to a full appreciation of the superior rig-hts 'and powers of those he agrees to serve, he begins either with a false vision or a species of treason in his heart."—James M. Cox in his first inaugural address as Governor of Ohio in 1913. RESOLUTIONS IN RESPECT TO THE MEMORY OF THE LATE MARTIN J. O'HARA. At a special meeting of the Board of Directors of The Baltimore County Jeffersonian Publishing " Company, Inc., held in Towson on the 14th day of September, 1020, the following resolutions were adopted: Whereas the Heavenly Father, on the 13th day of September, 1020, saw fit to terminate the earthly career of Mr. Martin J. O'Hara, who for many years was a faithful and efficient public servant of Baltimore county, and who from the time of its formation was a member of the Board of Directors and Treasurer of this Company; And Whereas we, the surviving members of said Board, by reason of our long, and pleasant association with him, and our intimate knowledge of the. upright and useful life he lived are desirous of giving formal expression to our deep sorrow and sense of personal loss in his untimely death.' Be It Therefore Resolved, that in the death of Mr. O'Hara we, as citizens, feel that Baltimore county has lost one of its most efficient, faithful and trusted servants, whose public record of more than 40 years is without a blemish; as directors, that The Jeffersonian has lost one of its most useful and capable officers and advisers; and as personal friends, that we have lost one whose jinaffected geniality and sterling character was an inspiration while he lived, and an example worthy of - emulation in the years to come. An" Be It Further Resolved, be spread upon the minutes of the that a copy of these resolutions! Company, published in The Jeffersonian, and another sent to the bereaved family of our deceased friend and co-worker, to whom .we extend our heartfelt condolences. WILLIAM J.

(Continued from Pag-e 1, Col. 7) ator Harding and the Old Guard, and there is a strong leaning toward Governor Cox, and I expect to see this sentiment crystalized by the Governor's swing during the next few weeks. The candidates; themselves and the great issues involved will influence the voters of the West this fall, for the voters out there are not taking anyone's word for things. They are doing their own thinking; they are doing this thinking in a rather astonishingly unbia/id and nonpolitical way, and there is every indication that their vote this^fall will be a repudiation of the present leaders who foisted one of their own number on the Chicago con- Governor Cox and Franklin Roosevelt keep to the vital issues, of the campaign as expressed by the campaign slogan: "Peace, Progress and Prosperity." That is to say, they stress the League of Nations, the progressive ideals of government and the economic and industrial features- of the platform and the ruduction of taxation. These are the real issues that appeal to men and women alike, as demonstrated by Governor Cox in West Virginia and Indiana and by Mr. Roosevelt on his Western trip, where he found the people progressive, strong for the league and against Mr. Harding's plan to make the high cost of living a little higher.
