Something to Read to the Republican
Club tomorrow night In the In
terest of Harmony,

The following resolutions were passed
by delegates ofseven districts of Wicomico
county at their recent county convention.
There are ten districts in the county.
Wicomico county is the home of Mr..
Graham, the candidate for comptroller
OH the republican ticket, and the resolu-
tions are the deliberate expression of his
neighbors.
The following resolutions were adopted
at the meeting:
Resolved, That the delegates to this convention
and also to the State convention believe it to be
their duty to arraign publicly the record of R. P
Graham, the Republican nominee for Comp
troller, candidate as unworthy of the support of
the Republican party in this county and State;
and first, because he helped to rough the county
convention, also conniyed and sanctioned this
fraud of Il bogus convention, and that he was q
party to the betrayal of Master in this county,
''Secnnd, because r. ?, Graham has frequently
denounced the Republican party as composed of
rabble and negroes, and he could not afford to
be with it, saying also, it was otherwise unworthy
of his support.
Third because r. p Graham elected as a
delegate to the Republican State Convention two
yelrsago refused to participate in that convention
because he did not wish to sit with colored man,
who was also elected as delegate to the same
convention.
Fourth, because r. P. Graham has publicly
declared himself as opposed to the free school
system.
'ReSOtred That our aTTaignment OF X. p. Graham
is by our political convictions, and that he is not
the choice OF the Republican party in this county
for Comptroller, and that his political record il
not endorsed by the representative Republicans
in this county"
The resolutions were signed by L. A.
Parsons, chairman, and Peter Bounds,
secretary.
In the further interest Of harmony tbs
chairman of the club tomorrow evening
ought to be requested to explain why Mr..
Lowndes did not come to the Fair after it
was announced by authority he would at
tend and had accepted the invitation.
Reqple-auite a good many of them at
least-are beginning to mix some con-
science and common sense into their
voting, the same as in their every day
business, and to all those we would say
you can vote for clsau man, man with
no political fly spots OH his garments, by
casting your ballots for Mr.. II. S. Gibson
of Somerset county, the Peoples party
candidate for comptroller. He is farmer
and every way a competent worthy candi-
date who did net sesk The nomination
but was the spontaneous choice of his
neighbors who know him.

The racing association that had
made preparations to occupy the
fair grounds at Elkton, and had
made the managers the tempting
offer Of $1,000 for rs days, will not
race. The managers were about to
accept the tempting bride but the
remonstrance of the people of the
county was so strong that they were
compelled to reconsider their action
and deny the use of the fair
grounds to the gamblers. The at,
tendance at the fair this year was
not large any of the days.
