Politics In the Second District

The Baltimore county Democratic Prima'
ries were held last Saturday and the County
Conventions at Towsontown, on Monday
In the convention to elect delegates to the
State convention resolutions were adopted
affirming The national platform of 1884, in
dorsing the administration of President
Cleveland and urging his denomination
The delegates elected to the State convention
are j. c. Talbot, John Fl. Fowler, T. AL.
len Leib, Thomas Chew Worthington, Geo
II. Morgan, Lewis II. Urban and John Ridg.
ely of Hampton.
In the convention to elect six delegates to
the Congressional convention which will
meet at Havre de Grace on the Oath instant
Hon. j. F. G. Talbot was Endorsed rs the
choice of Baltimore county for Congress and
the following delegates were elected:
Thomas Todd, Charles f. Fendall, Robert
A. Whiteford, DR.. Abraham Price, Lysander
Mccullough and Daniel w. Cameron. Mr..
Talbot expressed himself as in favor Of the
denomination of Cleveland and promised to
support the congressional nominee, whoever
he might be.
The delegates from Cecil county are I'M
instructed, but are probably in favor of the
nomination OF Mr. G. w. Cruikshank, editor
of the Cecil Democrat.
Carroll cOuntys delegates, as II matter OF
course will hold to DR.. Shaw.
There appears TO be no opposition, in any
any part of the county, to the selection OF
delegates to the Congressional Convention
favorable TO the nomination of Col Herman
Stump, and the only contest, probably, that
will take place in the primaries, will be 10
secure delegates favorable to this or that
man To represent the county i'll the Con
gressional or the State Convention. Five
delegates are to be sent to each convention,
so that honors may be said TO be easy We
earnestly hope, however, that Democratic
voters will attend these primary meetings on
Saturday, 9TH instant, and send first-class re-
preventative men to the County Convention
