THE REPUBLICANS of Hartford county, hav-
ing amicably adjusted their differences with
reference to their primaries, held harmonious
convention in Beair on Tuesday. Mr.. s. A.
Williams was named as district delegate to the
National Convention, and Mr. E. NJ. Allen,
Jr., was endorsed for the Con gressional nomi-
nation in the Second district and he was au-
thorized to name the delegates to meet in the
convention to be held at Towson, August 9Th.
The delegates chosen to the State convention
were instructed to use all honorable means to
elect Mr.. Allen as one of the delegates.at-larg
from Maryland to the National Convention.
This harmonious outcome was largely due to
to the excellent management of Mr.. Richard
Dallam, who deserves much credit for smooth
ing over some difficulties with reference to the
running Of the primaries that made matters
look very bad for the party's interest in that
county.

THAT VIRTUE is its own reward is shown by
an incident that occurred few days ago at
the Fidelity and Deposit Company in Balti-

by the company found on the floor of the
lobby, package containing 81, 900 in cash. He
carried the money to an officer of the company
and pretty soon the almost frantic owner APP
peared and claimed it. He rewarded the boy
for his honesty by giving him a five dollar

think it a shame that our county officers give
no encouragement to home industries and pre-
fer work done by city people. Take as an ex-
ample Parkville school building. Five tin
ners and three stovemen in the 9th and 14th
districts and the work done by city people.
I could give more facts along the same line.

JUDGE CHARLES Z. PHELPS retires from the
Supreme Bench of Baltimore city after long
and honorable career A friend says of him :
Judge Phelps is an extraordinary man. There
has been in his whole career the superexcellent
quality As a soldier he was not merely brave
he was one of the very bravest men in the
Civil War. AS citizen he not only stood for
the higher things but stood highest for the
very highest methods and achievements As
judge he had the manner, the ideals, the Iof-
tiness of chief justice" Some old veterans
in Baltimore county who fought under COL
Phelps, will gladly testify to his qualities as
soldier.
