Similar Conditions in Two Districts.
In the first district no rivalry has
arisen to Representative Covington in his
incumbency. while the republicans found
some trouble in inducing a partisan to,
enter the lists in that section.
Exactly the same conditions prevail In
the second, where, however, some inter-
est is added through the allegation that
Mr.. Baker is a pronounced insurgent and
a sympathizer with that element in Con-
gress. Whether this attitude on his part
will discourage the republicans from yot-
ing will be significant in the primary cleo
ton, in view of the fact that the organi-
cation republicans in Maryland are al
ways expected to stand behind any re-
publican President and his policies. who
ever may be in Office.
Troubles on Both Sides.
So thick are complications and troubles
in the third on both sides that progress
through the thoroughfares is retarded
and the STRENGTHENING department may
yet be called out. On the democratic
side KONG, Cody, McQuade and Young
are engaged in a battle royal which might
satisfy the most bloodthirsty patrons of
the prize ring. while the republican party
is divided by Main and Steiner Although
an organization man, Main is a near-in-
surgent in national policies, and "adyo-
Gates Roosevelt's policies" while Steiner
Is "agin the Stone machine and is local
inSurrectionist.
So, too. in the fourth district, are the
democrats mixing matters, the duel be-
tween Preston and Linthicum having
been transformed into a quadrangular
contest through the entrance Of Brown
yesterday, and Deponai at the eleventh
hour. Likewise, in republican circles,
the struggle between Mulliken, the Stone
organization candidate, and Schultz, the
insurrectionist. has been complicated by
the entry Of Karl A. NJ. ScholtZ, a cham
pion OF national republican insurgency.
Fight for Mudd's Seat.
Confident that the fifth district will
return democrat in the place of Rep
resentative Mudd, the friends Of Raw and
Stanley are fighting bitterly in that Sec
ton, this contest. however. being large
ly Of the nature of factional fight be-
tween the Wells-Clagett forces and the
younger element of the district. of which
Ray is the standard bearer. tom" Par
ran Is unoppoSed for the republican
nomination, and looks like a winner
With Mudd and Parran working to-
gether in the past, the republicans have
had strong combination, but with Mudd
eliminated Parran is said not to be equal
to bearing the burden alone, especially
without the backing Of a certain demo-
cratic element, which has stood for him
through family connections.
Three Opposing Pearre.
In the sixth district a contest is On in
ho rry}<b
dates opposing the return Of Represent
alive Pearre. Here the democrats are
practically united on David ]. Lewis,
who made a good showing in the last
election, and Etchisons aspirations are
not regarded as menacing by the demo-
cratic leaders.
Forecasts Of Results.
The nominees in the first and second
districts, Of course, are settled. In the
third and fourth democratic forecast
must be left to the individual guesser.
while on the republican side the Or
ganization leaders aver that Mulliken
and Main will be named without trouble.
Who shall oppose Parran in the fifth

Lewis is accepted as the democratic
nominee.
In the general election Covfngton and
Talbot are regarded as sure Of re-elec-
ton, and practically no doubt is enter
tanned Of the third district going demo-
cratic. provided a suitable candidate is
selected and the cut-throat policy
which defeated Lee S. Meyer is not pur-
sued in the future. Nor is any fear Of
defeat entertained by the democrats of
the fourth, regardless Of the identity Of
the candidate-Preston OF Linthicum. or
Brown or Deponai.
