TO THE DEMOCRATIC VOTERS OF
HARTFORD COUNTY.

As chairman of a meeting held in Bel Air
on Saturday, June LIST, 1895, was instructed
to indicate to the Democrats of the County
the reasons which impelled the meeting to
pame candidates for nomination at the pri-
mary election to be held on July 9th.
We claim the right as Democrats, to indicate
those men whom we think should be the can
didates OF the party, and we believe that We
represent the wishes of the masses of the
party voters in the County and in the State
We believe that the great majority of the
Democrats of the County are opposed to the
absolute dominion in our State and County
politics of A. p. German, and that they desire
the election of County Commissioner who is
entirely free from any political pledges which
might initiate against a business administra-
ton of our County finances and the meeting
further realized that u large percentage of the
Democrats of the County were unwilling to
enter the primaries under existing conditions
The aim of the meeting therefore was to
present to the Democrats of the County, can
didates for County Commissioner, Senator
and House of Delegates who are consistent
Democrats, net active partisans of either wing
of the party and who truly represent the wish
es and views of the great mass of our party's
voters and who can be depended on if nom-
mated at the primaries and elected, to carry
out the wishes of the people.
This believe has been done and every DEM
ocrat in the County is urged to attend the pri-
mares and vote for the Inen who have been
named.

the executive committee, and the work push
ed to completion. The necessity for broad
gauging the road is becoming more apparent
every day, especially since the Belt Line tun-
mel has been put into operation. The cost of
the change, it is thought, would be made up
in the saving effect by being able to run load
ed cars of the company onto the tracks of
connecting lines, and through to their desti-
nation, and avoiding thereby the transfer of
freight from narrow gauge trucks to broad
gauge cars, and vice versa.
Mr. Blackwell, the electrician, will make
his report to the executive committee at the
earliest possible moment. The question of
electrifyfng the road will then be taken up,
and if it be found that the line can be operated
to advantage by the new method, the change
will be made without delay, and will go into
effect when the work of broad, guaging the
road shall have been completed.

The chief function of the kidneys is to sepa-
rate from the blood, In its passage through
them of certain impurities and watery parti-
cles which make their final exit through the
bladder The retention of these, in conse-
queuce of inactivity of the kidneys, is produc-
albuminuria and other maladics with tata
tendency. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a
highly sanctioned diuretic and blood depur-
emit, impels the kidneys when inactive to re-
new their sitting function, and strain from the
vital current impurities which infest it and
threaten their own existence as organs of the
body. Catarrh of the bladder, gravel and re-
tention of the urine are also maladies arrested
or averted by this benign promoter and restOr-
alive of organic action. Malara, rheumatism,
constipation, biliousness and dyspepsia also
yield to the Bitters, which is also speedily ben

Broad Gauge and Electricity for Bslti-
more and Lehigh.

The narrow gauge tracks of the Baltimore
and Lehigh Railroad and the York Southern,
which is that part of the system lying within
the State of Pennsylvania, will shortly be con-
yerted into standard gauge road, and not
unlikely into an electric line as well, using
the heavy and powerful trolley instead of the
steam locomotive.
With the former project in view, and the
possibility of the latter, an inspection party
went over the road on Thursday of last week
at the invitation of Mr.. William Gilmore, be-
tween the North Avenue Station, In Baltimore,
and York, Pa. In the party with MIR. Gilmor
were Mr.. John Wilson Brown, MIR. John K.
Cowen, Mr.. Wv: Spence, Mr.. Alexander
Brown, Mr.. George c. Jenkins, Mr.. Solomon
Frank, of Frank & Adler Mr.. w. A. Moore,
manager of the road, and j. l.. Blackwell
The latter is a consulting engineer and promi-
nent electrician. MIR. Blackwell was employ
ed by the executive committee to make an
inspection Of the water power along the line
for the purpose of generating the electricity
required for the motive power, instead OF
steam, and to submit an estimate Of the cost,
capacity, &c.
The party returned over the same route the
same evening. They report everything in
satisfactory condition. There are now in
place between 20, 600 and 10000 ties OF broad
guage width under the rails. When they were
put in to replace old ties it was with the idea
that the road must, in the near future, be
broadened. Indeed, all the work done on the
line for some time has been accommodated to
this idea The trestles have been altered so
as to receive the standard gnage tracks wnen
the time for the change should arrive. and,
with the same view, the cuts were widened.
This work has been going on quietly, but eff
fectually, all the way from Baltimore to York,
and all that remains to be done now Is to
spread the rails. This will be done just as
soon as it shall have been determined what
weight of rail to use. Some of the stockhold-
ers are in favor of q much heavier rail than
the one now in service, while others believe
that the present rails will answer all purposes.
This matter will be taken up without delay by

an estate of S15, 900 besides. One of the mem
bers asked Mr.. Moores if times had not chang
ed since then, prices being SO much lower. In
reply he stated that with the improved machin-
cry aud. lower price of fertilizers, farmers
make more money with wheat at IS cents AND.
hay at S14, then heretofore.
Rev. S. c. WATSON could not speak from e2-
perience, but would suggest that the young
man buy farm, as he would take more inter
est and do his work more thoroughly. Anoth-
er thing, it is not well for ayoung man to have
too many holidays.
John Webster said that if he was going to
farm for a few years he would rather be ten
ant, but if he intended to make it permanent
business he would buy at the present low
prices. He favored as many holidays AS posi-
BILE.
5. NJ Lee thought that at the present time
the tenant had u decided advantage over the
landlord. He would favor a young man buy
ing, however, if he intended following farming
permanently, but he should consider that it re-
quired considerable money thereafter to stock
and run a farm successfully.
X. F. Hanua believed in young man owning
a farm, even if he has to mortgage it. Paying
interest is not us bad us paying rent.
j. B. WysOug was inclined to think that
young man, who was good worker and had
good common sense, had better buy his farm.
Select land of good quality, even if the build
ings are poor. He thought it was a great in
centive to own property. 1t makes the owner
better citizen, even though he has to struggle.

CROP BULLETIN.-The following reports are
from Hartford county

Line Bridge.-The weather of the past week
has been moderate, with cold nights, which
does not forward corn much. Ground,
around late corn, is baked SO hard that 1t can
not come up well. Cherries are almost to-
tai failure, and the prospects for crop OF APP
pies are not SO good, as great many are fali-
ing off. Wheat, oats and grass continue to
look well. Philip Barton.
Van Bibber.-Light shower during the week
very beneficial, but rain would help matters
materially. Corn growing nicely good color,
and farmers working 1t most fields in good
order. Wheat splendid full OF sap, and with
ginning to change color. Oats good; rye also,
and tomato planting progressing.
