The Primaries.

Rising Sun was the scene of another
lively contest last Saturday afternoon,
the republican and democratic primaries
both being held on that date. With the
democrats there was no contest as their
was solely for the purpose of naming del
egates for the convention on Wednesday,
to select delegates for the State convention
to be held later to nominate State ticket.
In the republican ranks, however, the
battle waxed warm. R. L. Christie and
H. Linn Worthington were aspirants for
a place on the State Central committee
Mr.. Christie had his lieutenants at work
and with the experience of defeat i'll for
mer campaigns as guide to a successful
outcome claimed victory from the start.
Mr.. Worthington, on the other hand, was
almost novice and was working lone
handed. Despite his single-handedness
and lack of experience, he had the Christie
faction beaten to standstill until the be-
lated 4:44 train arrived at $40 with 20
"cullud brethren" from Rowlandville,
Mt. Zoar or Conowingo. This contingent
turned the scale and Mr.. Christie's dele
gates were declared elected by majority
of 7, out of total poll of 1875.
The republican and democratic primar-
les both being held on the same day
proved little misleading to some. One
lifelong republican stepped up to the
democratic polls, asked for a ticket and
deposited it without comment He after
ward found out his mistake and asked to
have it rectifed and as there was no con-
test in the democratic camp, the officials
told him they would loan him to the G.
o. P. until November. Another, who was
on the fence and didn't know which way
to fall, voted at both polls in order to
make no mistake.

Belair Trolley Franchise.

The Town Commissioners of Bel
air have passed an ordinance
authorizing the Baltimore and Bel
air Electric Railway Company to
lay tracks and operate an electric
railway in the town. The ordi-
nance provides that the work shall
be commenced by December 81,
1905, and the road be in operation
by December 81, 1906, and the
work, when once begun, is to be
continued with reasonable expedi-
ton. On and after December 81,
1910, the company is to pay the
town of Belair, in addition to the
usual property tax, an annual
amount, to be determined every
five years by arbitration, as a fran
chise tax for the use of the streets.

A Point to Consider.

With the nominations for the complete
county and legislative tickets of the po-
litical parties now before them, the voters
of Cecil county will have ample time to
consider aud select those in their opinion
best qualified for the Offices to be filled,
before marking their ballots on the day
of election. Whatever other questions
may influence the voter in his choice of
candidates for the various Offices to be
filled, it should be borne in mind that
one of vital importance at the present
time, which has bearing upon a portion
of the ticket at least, is that of safe
guarding our present local option law,
and preventing the whiskey ring from
tampering with or having it repealed at
the next session of the legislature, as
has been attempted at every General
Assembly since the enactment of the law
as applied to Cecil county.
The candidates for the House of Dele
egates should be required to place them
selves on record concerning their attitude
toward the present prohibitory law in
force i'll our county, as the efforts of the
whiskey ring to have it declared uucon-
stitutional in the courts, clearly show no
stone will be left unturned to encompass
its defeat through the legislature.
The course of the nominee for States
Attorney on the republican ticket, when
a member of the House of Delegates al
the last session, and the record he made
for the cause of temperance ~ and good
government is so fresh in the momory Of
the people as to scarcely need mention,
and is the very best of evidence, coupled
with his known leaning, that nothing
could be hoped for from such an official
in the event of election to the position o.
public trust to which he aspires, in the
vigorous prosecution of possible cases O.
violation of this law which might BIZ
brought Ebefore court during his tenure
of Office.
The nomination of candidates with
such records, not only forfeits all claim o
the party making them to the support o
the temperance loving element of the
county, but merits but one reward, tina
of defeat.

Republican primaries were held in all
the counties of Maryland on Saturday,
and the results were for the most part in
favor of the organization. With conven-
tions yet to be held in Frederick, Allie
gany and Talbot counties-the result in
each case not being in doubt-the regu-
lar State organization is in possession of a
sufficient number of votes from among
the county members to control the state
convention and nominate Hon. Stepen-
son A. Williams, of Hartford county, for
the governorship; to control the new
State Central Committee, and to give it a
long lead over the opposition, in its fight
for the reelection of Hon. Louis E.
McComas to the United States Senate.
