GIVE Is l DIRECTOR.

The Stockholders of the Baltimore and
PotomaS Rail Road are about to elect
Directors to manage its affairs. and we
join in the public sentiment among our
people that the Hon William ID. Bowie,
State Senator from this County should he
chosen one of them The Charter of this
road Acts 1853, Chapter 1874, requires that
the President and Il majority of the Di-
rectorS shall be citizens Of the State of
Marvland. Southern Maryland by the
death of Governor Bowie now has but
one Director. Samuel Cox of Charles
County Governor Bowie rendered very
valuable services to the Company as its
President and it would be a fitting recog-
milton of this fact that his son should rep
resent our County in the Board Our PEG
pl,' are very much concerned in this mat
ter The road traverscS nearly fifty miles
of cur County and various are the needs
of persons living near the road We
trust that the Stockholders. when they
meet will honor our County bv electing
Senator Bowie one of the Directors at
least if not the President
