SPECIAL ELECTION
FOR u. S. SENATORS

An election to fill the vacancy in the
Senate caused by the death of Isador
Raynor will be held in November, at the
regular election, under a writ from Gov
ernor Goldsborough.
The Governor announced his decision
in the long discussed matter Saturday.
Nominations for Senator by the part
les will be made at the primary to be
held in September, under the law ap-
plying in the nomination of candidates
for Governor. This law provides for di-
rect election of delegates to the State
convention from each county and legisla-
tive district of Baltimore city, each set
of delegates being instructed and voting
in the convention for the COuntys choice.
1t is what is known as the county unit"
plan
The great expense attending the nomi-
nation of candidates for Senator under
the old Senatorial primary law is elimi-
mated. Candidates for Senator entering
the September primary will put up the
same deposit made by candidates for
other State offices; that is, $40 in each
county and legislative district of Balti
more city.
CHOOSING OF PRIMARY DATE.
Under the law, the primary must be
held not earlier than September 5 and
not later than September Is. The chair
men of the parties are authorized to
agree upon any day within that period,
and if such agreement is made, the su-
pervisors OF elections must oder a pri-
mary on that day. Should the chairmen
disagree, the supervisors must order the
primary for September 10.
No action has been taken by General
Murray Vandiver and John b. Hanna,
the chairmen of the Democratic and Re-
publican parties, respectively
In announcing his decision, Governor
Goldsborough stated that he had been
actuated by desire to De IN accord with
the great prevailing public sentiment for
the direct elections of Senators by the

A PLACE OF BARTER

1t is also true that at this time 06S5)
there was a trading post at Port Deposit
and it was the place of barter between
the Susquehannock Indians and white
traders. These Indians are described as
the most noble specimens of manhood
found in America. True it is if the i'm
p.ements of warfare and home life are
in the index. At any time at this later
day specimens in splendid condition can
be found on the Islands in the Susque
hanna or on the hills back of town.
Port Deposit has always been govern
ed by the commission form and its ma
yors" since 1890 have been John Var

the beginning of the great fortune
which Mr. Tome always boasted was ac-
quired right here, that was given back
to Port Deposit at his death in the rorns
OF the greatest school OF It's class in the
country. Associated with him were T.
C. Bond Col. Edwin Wilmer, j. H. Row
land the Baird brothers, OF Camden, N.
J , and many others who in those days
all amassed fortunes The Port Deposit
granite quarries were conc ived in 1857
and came frrto the hanis Of the McGlena-
han family N 1885.
COMMENDED BY WASHINGTON
Port Deposit is substantial, If not as
progressive as might 10. She has al
ways had place in the business world,
nor has she refused one call to the coun-
try's aid. Washington commended the
men of Creswell's Fetry" for the eff
cient manner in which his troops were
transferred across the :tva' ald request
ed that the citizens should not go to the
front, as they were ilJAIuanle TSght at
the crossing. A part Of the history or
Maryland recently unearthed in the
search for data for tiis Celebration is
the record of the Ficst Independent Rifle
Company of Cecil C'lnty. This COM
pany of Port Deposit men enlisted in
1912 as a part of the Thirtieth Regiment
of Infantry. They helped in the iefense
of Elkton, went through the Battle oi
North Point and when the British at
tempted to destroy Port Deposit they
learned that in the fort, where now
stands the National Bank and Tome In.
stitute offices, there were 200 sharp.
shooters who could pluck an eye at 500
feet and the admiral, Cockburn, gave
discretion the preference to valor and
went down and burnt Havre de Grace.
In the War of the Rebellion SHOWS
Battery was recruited from Port Deposit
and their dead and wounded Is its testi-
monial of duty we'll done.
FORESIGHT OF CALVERT
In sight of Tome School is the sue Sc
lected by Lord Calvert and granted to
Edward Palmer for the greatest school
in America. This foresight of Calvert
has been fulfilled by Jacob Tome in his
greatest secondary school. No histori
cal story Of a community is complete
without one legend. Perhaps the story
OF George Talbot, the deposed leader
of Marylands Council in 1885, is the
best example of local traditions. Tai
bott, when under indictment for muir
der, took refuge in a cave in Port De-
posit and there lived supported by the
game brought to him by his two pet fall
cons Be the story true or false, it is
fact that Talbot was much sought for
and not captured, The cave was there
until blown up to make room for the
Columbia and Port Deposit Railroad in
1858.
