rect that each and all of the said hereinbefore

THE REPUBLICAN, NOMINAL TONS

The Republicans of Maryland, according
to programme, assembled on Thursday of
last week at Ocean City and proceeded to
TO the nomination OF State ticket and to
the adoption of a platform Of principles.
AS to the latter, it re affirms its adhesion To
the principles of the National Republican
platform of 1888, and particularly the sup
port of the Republican majority in behalf
of the protection afforded to American in
dustry and labor by its tariff legislation.
The administration of President Harrison
is commended for its "vigor and dignity"
and Secretary Blaine comes in for his share
of glory. The Democracy Of Maryland is
denounced for "its meaningless silver plat
FORM" and the Democratic party of the
State is arrGgned for permitting the Com
monwealth to be plundered by its guar
dians. The registration law Of the last leg
islature is condemned, and thorough re-
form on the registration laws is demanded.
The nominations seem to have been made
with care and doubtless will command the
support and respect of a majority of the Re-
publcans in this State. Col. w. ]. .Vannort,
their nominee for Governor, lifelong resi-
dent of Kent county, is farmer, and for
merly merchant of fair standing, and as a
soldier in the Union army made fair record
George M. Sharp, OF Baltimore, was nomi-
mated for Attorney General. Mr.. Sharp is
gentleman of scholastic and professional
attainments, and if such thing as his cleo
ton were possible, would make good man
for the position named. Capt. 1ohn Nc
Donald, the nominee for Comptroller, is a
resident Of Potomac district, this county.
Capt Mcdonald is an ex Union soldier and
retired army officer under pay of the gov
ernment. He was elected and served term
in the Maryland Legislature from this county
His eligibility under the State Constitution
was raised and the conclusion very gener-
ally reached that he was ineligib le, but no
definite action was reached in the matter
pending the session Of which he was a
member. There seems to be difference of
in the State Constitution which it was
claimed rendered him ineligible as men,
Der of the House of Delegates applies to the
Office for which he has been nominated.
Captain Mcdonald is well and favora-
bly, known in the county and is one
of the most successful and progressive
farmers In his section Of the county. Mr.
Enoch B. Abel, of st. Mary's county, was
nominated for Clerk of the Court OF Appeals.
Mr.. Abel was at one period of his life a
lawyer in full practice, but for some years
has been conducting a county newspaper
Altogether the Republicans have nomi-
mated very fair ticket, but that single
man named stands the slightest chance OF
success no sane person would dare predict.
AS the canvass progresses we will have more
to say of their platform.

thirty days after the publication of this no.
tice we will petition your Honorable Board
for the opening OF a public road beginning
at point on the public road leading from
Gaithersburg to the public road leading from
Rockville to Darnestown, and now designated
as Heaters lane, which runs between the
lands of VIM. Fulks and Bernard Monday,
and following said lane to be located on the
lands of VIM. Fulks or Bernard Monday, as
may he best suited for the purpose; then on
and through the lands of the said John Heat
er until it reaches the lands of Hattie Eng
land, Charles E. England and lmogene Eng
land thence through the lands of Hattie
England, Charles f. England and Imogene
England, on the lane AS now used thence
following said lane through helands of Anna
sa Hohgh thence through the lands of Elijah
NJ. Schooly; thence through the lands of
Henry Raft until il reaches the public road as
now located; thence across the psblio road
as now opened aud used, and thence across a
small strip of land of Louisa Seby, wife of
Allen Selby, or of Allen Seby and Louisa
Selby and John 7. Selby and Elizabeth Selby,
his wife, to the lands of Minerva Selby, wife
of Henry E Selby then through the lands
of the said Minerva Selby on and about where
was formerly located what was called excl
ly's lane;" thence through the lands of War
wick G. Hough thence through the lands Of
Matilda Kelly, wife of Thomas Kelly; thence
through the lands OF Mary Watkins, wife of
Rudolph Watkins, until it reaches an orch
ard then leaving said orchard on the north
and running through the lands of Rebecca G.
Fields to a point deemed best suited for a
public road ; then through the lands of the
said Mary Watkins 10 the public road leading
from Rockville to Gaithersburg and known
as the Frederick road.
Your petitioners farther represent that the
road petitoned for is greatly need d and
would accommodate large number of the
public by giving them shorter and more
convenient way to the station at Derwood,
where there is a mill and post office, and also
to the town of Rockville.
Your petitioners therefore pray that said
public road may be made as early as possible,
and as in duty, &C.

The appointment by the British govern
ment of commission to superintend the
preparation of the English exhibit at the
Chicago Worlds Fair will have stimu-
sating effect on the prospects of the exposi-
ton abroad. The Prince of Wales lends
the weight of his influence as president of
the commission, and among the members is
Sir Philip Cunliffe Owen, who was the
leading spirit in the British representation
at the Centennial. 1t is proposed to send a
full exhibit of the arts and industries, not
only of Great Britain and Ireland, but of
the various colonial dependencies, and in
view of the cordial expressions of the gov
ernment and the character of the commits
sion, the display will doubtless be most
interesting and satisfactory one.
