As the day was one nearly barren OF

character OF the receding movement was
easily, discernible. and sales OF stock
made upon the decline were small. as
they have been on nearly ali similar oc-

The really notable feature OF the days
market was its assumption Of a broader
character than that seen earlier in the
week While certain stocks were leaders
OF the market. as they long have been.
and most or the buying that went on
was probably professional and specula-

CONVICTION THE MAN.

Hon. } Harry Covington was
at the Berlin races last Thurs
day and had the pleasure Of
meeting hundreds Of the voters
of Worcester and Wicomico
Counties He received a great
reception and assurances from
numerous voters who have not
heretofore voted the Democratic
ticket that they are going to
vote for him for Congress and
for Bryan and Kern for Presi-
dent and Nice.President.
They will vote for Mr.. Coving-
ton because he is hustler.
This they could readily see
when they met him last Thurs
day. They will vote for him
because they know he Is man
of ability, who can creditably
represent them in Congress.
They will vote for him because
he is an ardent advocate Of the
free rural delivery service. and.
by the way. So is Mr.. Bryan.
They viii vote for him because
they recognize that the First
Congressional District needs a
man in Congress who can stand
up for their rights and defend
them when there is need for de-
Tense Mr. Jackson has not the
ability to do either. They will
vote for Mr. Covington because
he is a true representative Of
the intelligent white people Of
the Eastern Shore.
Mr.. Covington is a prominent
lawyer of Easton. He is the
States Attorney for Talbot
County, and he is considered
an able and eloquent advocate
He is strong advocate Of good
roads, and is in favor Of the
post roads system which has
been inaugurated by the Demo
cratic party through the efforts
of Governor Crothers The Re-
publican party turned down the
post roads proposition, but the
Democratic party has proclaim
ed for it in no uncertain way in
its platform Governor Croth-
ers made it his business Ut the
Democratic convention to work
for this plank in the platform.
and Mr. Covington stands with
him in strong advocacy of good
roads.
Mr. Coyington is coming to
Worcester County to speak to
the people and to meet them
personally lie wants to see
you he wants your friendship,
and he wants your vote He
wants to see Mr.. Bryan elected
President, so that the best in
terests Of the farmers, business
men and working men, will be
conserved thereby.
