Convention May Be Called Off.

Ii is thought that the republican con
sresslonal convention in the fifth district,
which was to have been held tomorrow
at Chesapeake Beach, will have to be
called off. The primaries and county
convention in that district have already
been held. The republican state central
committee. which recently selected dates
Tor congressional conventions in all dis
tr1cts outside Ct Baltimore, will probably
be called again to make arrangements
for the primaries
The Lee primary election law provides
that the two parties shall hold joint pri-
mares. An agreement will have to be
reached between the two state central
committees. 1T no agreement can he
reached the law provides that the pri-
maries shall be held not later than the
first Monday in September.

Throughout the State"

"Still another feature of the act impress
sively tending to show that the nomina-
tons OF candidates for Congress are in
tended to be governed by it is the clause
of section 100 B which declares that said
primary elections by the political parties
aforesaid shall be annually held THOUGH
out the state, including Baltimore city,
etc.
I'm those years in which the members
of the general assembly are not to be
elected the only elections which take place
throughout the state, including Balti-
more city, are congressional elections.
Therefore, when the general assembly de-
clared in this act that the said primary
elections shall be held annually through
out the state including Baltimore city.
the general assembly must be deemed to
have been contemplat ting statewide cleo
tons in each and every year, ana TINS
could only be in contemplation of congress
sional primaries in the alternate years
when there We're no statewide primaries
for members of the general assembly or
the state Offices of governor. attorney
general controller and clerk of the court
of appeals
Moreover. section 1900 prescrbes that
each candidate for nomination for pubiic
| office at primary election shall pay the
| sum of 50 for each county or legislative
district of Baltimore city in which MS
name appears upon the ballot
THE only candidate for office, other
| than governor attorney general, con-
| trOlier or clerk Of the court of appeals, or
| a judicial candidate, who would be called
| upon to pay SO for each county or legis-
| lative district of Baltimore city in which
| his name appears on the ballot, would
be candidate for Congress. because. as
is well known, the several congressional
districts include various counties in some
instances, various legislative districts of
Baltimore in other instances, and counties
aud nartS of legislative districts of Balti-
more in still other instances. This proVl-
sion would seem to make il clear that
congressional nominees are within the

NAVY YARD SWITCH
Amendment to Navy Bill Re-
curing Continuance
ADOPTED BY THE SENATE
Railway to Keep Up the Single
Track Connection for
Two Years.
ADOPTED BY THE SENATE

An amendment to the naval appropria-
ton bill adopted by the Senate late yes
terday afternoon requires the continu-
ance of the present railroad switch to the
Washington navy yard for the next two
years.
Just before the naval bill was passed
by the upper house Senator Carter pro-
posed the amendment affecting the much
discussed switch to the local gun fac
tory. 1t is practically the same as bill
which Senator Carter has introduced, and
provides:
That the Philadelphia. Baltimore and
Washington Railroad Company be. and it
is hereby, authorized and required to
maintain it's track connection with the
United States navy yard in the city of
Washington, d. c., from the said com
pany's freight yard, commonly known as
the New Jersey avenue freight yard, by
means of a single track, as at present
located on Canal street and h street
southeast and thence to the navy yard,
located, in whole or in part, and to con-
tinue the operation thereof for two years
under regulations to be established by
the Commissioners of the District of Co
lumbia anything contained in any prior
act or acts of Congress TO the contrary
not Withstanding.'

Language of the Code.

In cOQe. SectlOn lO'' A. as enacted by
the statute under consideration. the
same sweeping language is again en-
ployed and at various other places
throughout the act the language all
such candidates for public office re-
peatedly appears.
Again in code. section 100 A the fol-
lowing expression occurs: All such can
didates for such Office and all such dele
gates. etc. shall be selected and chosen
by the direct vote of the duly regis
tered voters belonging to or acting with
such parties, respectively. in every pre-
cinct. ward. councilmanic. Legislative or
other election district in Baltimore
city, md also in the several counties of
the state of Maryland The only
other election district here referred
to is the congressional district. In
deed. the only natural Significance as
Scrbable to the expression or other
election district as here employed in
the act is that it necessarily contem-
plates candidates in congressional dis
tficts for congressional nomination.
another feature of the act which in
dicates that Congressional nominations
are within it's provisions is the proviso
in section 1G0 A, that the provision of
this subtitle requiring the nominatio
of candidates by direct vote shall not
apply to the nomination for county Of
fees. state senate and members of the
house of delegates in the counties Of
Howard Somerset. Washington, Worces-
shall be selected by a. county conven-
ton etc 1T is obvious that if from
the candidates who are required to be
nominated by direct vote and in the
counties the candidates here particularly
enumerated are subtracted, there must
