oee1 aroused by the splendid appearance
made by Company of Bel Air during

bitterly disappointed by the fact of
not being s1ale to get away from town to
spend little vel! earned holiday, but
they have accepted the inevitable in the
very hest of grace and hare shown them
selves to be soldiers in the fullest mean
ing of the word. Their appearance COM
pares very Eavorahly with that OF any
company in the entire brigade.
Some of the baltimore newspapers !
have attempted to cast discredit on the
Town Commissioners fBel Air by saving
that tlaev tried to exclude the soldiers
from coming into town during the en-
campment. This is not true as the Board
only requested the commanding officer
to establish a provost guard to keep quiet
and order within the limits. Whether
nhis statement was willlul or not, it
.shouh npt have been made, as il is I'M
Aair to those who have the management
of the affairs Of the corporation.
1t has been suggested that the judges
at the primary election should prevent
negroes voting at the coming primaries.
We heartily approve Of tl4s plan. Of
