TARIFF REFORM MEEr1NG.-A mass meeting
| was held at the Court House, in Bel Air, last
Saturday afternoon, to give expression to the
! sentiments of the people for tariff reform and
in support of the President aud the House of
Representatives.
| The meeting was called TO order by Mr..
John Moores and the following were elected
as the officers:
President, Charles W. Michael Vice Presi-
dents, James l.. Richardson and George y.
Cairnes Secretary, Matthew }. Heron.
President Michael briefly explained the OBJ
| ject of the meeting, which, he said, was for
lhonest government against the trusts Demo
crazy against plutocracy and law and order
| against anarchy.
The chair appointed as the committee on
resolutions Messrs. p. ii. Rutledge, Robert p.
| MITCHELL w. Oliver Hughes, B. Frank Han
way and John Divers. The committee retired
| to the jury-room, and soon returned with the
following resolutions, which were adopted by
a rising vote:
"We, Democrats of Hartford county, in
| public meeting assembled, declare that 1t is
| our conviction, in common with the opinion
of an overwhelming majority of our fellow
| party members throughout this State and the
country at large, that the administration of
President Cleveland and the present Congress
! of the affairs of the government should be con-
Quoted upon the principles strictly inherent
in the Democratic platform of 1892. The
foundation principles enuncated in the cam
| paign which resulted in the election OF Pres-
| dent Cleveland and Democratic majority of
both houses of Congress were free raw mater
| ials and taxation for revenue only, sufficient
! for the support Of government economically
1 administered. President Cleveland and the
|
adherence to this platform and such principles
| as are embodied in the Wilson tariff bill de-
serve and receive the support and hearty CO.
operation of the Democracy throughout the
| country. The antagonism enkindled at the
| behests of trusts and combines by this honest,
open and patriotic course, and through the
| instrumentalty of Senators German, Brce
and Smith, is to be condemned and repudiated
| by every honest citizen protesting the princi
pies of Democracy. Therefore resolved:
"First-That We cordially reiterate our in
dorsement of the Democratic National plat
form of 1892 and the efforts of our incorrup-
tible President and National House of Repre-
sentatives to formulate into legal enactment
by the Wilson tariff bill its promises and pro-
! visions.
'sSecond-That in the name of the Demo
crazy in Hartford county we repudiate and
condemn the obstructive and traitorous action
| of our Senator from Maryland in Congress,
who grossly misrepresents his constituency at
the behest of the Sugar Trust and other COM
bnes.
s.Third-That Senator Gorman's aspersion
of President Cleveland and his patriotic course
merits and receives our unqualified condem-
nation.
ssFourth-That it is only consistent with the
action of Senator who has published to the
world his peregrinations through the filth and
mire of politics that he should longer consent
to occupy the position he has sought to pros
titute by his renegade course, conscious, as he
must be, that he betrayed the party that has
elevated him to it.
s'Fifth-That we commend the actions of
our Representative from this congressional
district the Hon. j. Fred. G.. Talbot, in the
stand he has taken to carry out the principles
and pledges of the National Democratic plat
form of 1892 and his support of the Wilson
tariff bill.
'!Sixth-That the Democracy of Maryland
and the whole country are justly gratified by
the fearless and open condemnation of Sena-
tor Germans methods by that ably conducted
paper the Baltimore San, and that its lucid
and forcible exposition of the situation here
has accomplished much good in showing in it's
true light the position of our Democratic
State and people, and thereby indicating
the Democracy of Maryland from the foul as
pensions of Gormauism.
s'Seventh-That we send greetings to our
sister counties of the State with the assurance
that the Hartford Democracy is now and has
always been true to the principles of tariff re-
form and steadfast in its support of Cover
Cleveland, our President, Hon. w. L. Wilson
and the House of Representatives and all
other patriots now battling for imperiled De-
mocratc principles and the release of us all
from the iron grip of McKinleyism and the
Unsuitable maws OF the ravenous trusts and
combines"
