DOES ENsoR WANT HARMONY

John Ensor has been busy making his state
mcnis to people about his desire 10 harmOniss the
difficulties Of the Republican party Of the county.
These statements are characterized BY that degree
Of truth (l) for which RnsOr bears such fair (l)
name among those who kMor him best Heis at.
tempting 10 make the credulous believe he Is the
most amiable and harmonious Of morsais. But
there are some facts which show eonclusiyeiy that
he thinks moro Of John Rnsor than he does Of the
truth.
Before the county convention met and adjourn
cd on tho goth Of September. more than once the
proposition was made to him TO divide the delega.
tion to the State convention and the members Of
the State Central Committee between Ensor and
the opposition to him. lie declined the PROPOSE
tion, saying ks intended to have them all. While
the convention was In session he was told II ke
'roHid tell The eoHrsnfion he would decline being
placed on the State Central Committee tho whole
difficulty would be over. lie replied "then they
can stay there forever before would do it,
There was no, much spirit Of harmony In that.
About forty Republicans Of the county assem-

Two candidates on Ensors ticket attended the
meeting and In good faith asked what could be
done TO secure harmony In the party. This meet.
ing stated In writing "that tho Reorganization Of
the State Central Committee and Executive Com.
mittcc for baltimore county In accordance with
the principles Of popular usage. so ,ha, the dele.
gates from each district should choose their own
members on said committees, was the chief thing
to be done to promote harmony, and that being
dons the dispute about the county ticket could be
easily adjusted"
Msssrs. Baylies and Roach, the two candidates
mentioned. thought this . fair proposition and
carried Il to Ensor and his COMMITTEES, which met
on Postofiee avenue. But this plea for harmony
was promptly declined without considering the
matter, with the statement that Il was blow at
Mr.. Ensor. Just how or why Il was blow at
Ensor was net stated. But this thing is certain,
tsies before the 10Th Of September and again last
Saturday did Ensor eontcmptuously reject these
propositions for q harmonious aud united party.
II seems that Il was considered the last proposi.
tion as well rs the ous made while the convention
was in session required some personal sacrifice On
Ensor's part and were rejected for that res.on.-
Il II not plain TO be seen that Ensor considers
hi"'sD Of greater Importance than the harmony
and unity OF the party' Ifheis worrying himself
to secure this desirable end why Is he not willing
to make any personal sacrifice forit Everybody
else must forego personal ambitions and wishes
for themselves and friends TO harmoni.e 10 En.or.

We appeal to all fair men to say whether his
whine about harmony in the face Of these facts is
not as hypocritical as the wilmer is destitute Of
principle and truth.
