not as fortunate as themselves to secure
their support and their cooperation. The
primary principles and traditions Of politi-
cal harmony have ever been engraved upon
our standard, and as long as primary con-
tests are governed by statute or sanctioned
in any other manner the same procedure
will govern our course. Therefore we again
make this petition to every Democrat "a

broad plane Of unity and harmony II ouI
candidates are to have the chance for
victory this fall. The primary is over now
and whilst it is not human to absolutely
forget the events Of last Tuesday, it is
certainly within the scope of reason and
right and propriety to suggest as much
forgetfulness as possible under the circum-
stances. and if not this absolutely. as least
to think of the requirements in the prem
ises, and TO do all that is possible under
the circumstances to bring about satisfac-
tory results. The men selected by the
Democratic voters on last Tuesday are
eminently qualified for their various offices,
and no one need have the slightest hest
fancy in giving them his entire support,
The Democratic party expects every man
to do his duty, and with this slogan at the
foremost. the good old ship can safely
weather all the dangers of the deep and
finally glide into safe and snug harbor.

Denton Journal, Caroline county.
The Democratic standard bearers in State
and county. chosen by a majority of the
party voters at the primary held last Tues
day, are presented to the public. By the
wishes of the multitude they are appointed
to lead the Democratic hosts to victory.
1t is the duty Of party men-the twenty
five hundred Democrats of Caroline-every
one to do whatever he can to secure their
triumphant election in November Great
things are accomplished by loyalty Of pur-
pose and cooperation. By these the De-
mocracy Of Caroline can be made an in
vincible force. giving success to all its
nominees. decided upon according to law
and party usage in fair primary. Not
one so chosen need 90 down to defeat.
With our party strength victory should ever
be ours. Let Caroline become even more
certain unit Of Democratic power. We
need and the State needs such assured
strength this year, when we are undertak-
ing to rescue the State from the dangers
of Republican ntrol-when we want to
give the nation the assurance that Mary
land will be in the right column next year
when the great national contest will take
place. Let us have unity of all Democrats
now and victory in November. In a future
issue we will speak at length of the can

The returns from all the counties Of the
State and from Baltimore city leave not
the slightest doubt that Mr.. Harrington is
the Democratic nominee for Governor, and
will be opposed at the general election.
held November 2, by Mr.. o. E. Weller. the
Republican nominee. The situation that
confronts Democracy calls foR the most
determined effort on the part of every
Democrat. for the State of Maryland must
have a Democratic Governor. The sup
porters Of Senator Lee must vie with the
Harrington supporters in their loyalty to
the entire ticket as nominated by the peo-
pie. They have fixed upon their choice
and ii is no more than just and right that
every Democrat abide by their decision
1t is confidently expected that Mr.. Lees
supporters will do this. the same as would
the supporters Of Mr.. Harrington had the
returns been reversed. and that the cleo
ton of Mr.. Harrington and his running
mates will be then assured.
At no time during the entire campaign
has there been an idea entertained that
any candidate thai the Republicans might
nominate could beat either of the Demo-
cratic candidates. There is no reason to
believe that the people of the State want
two successive Republican administrations.
Governor GoldsbOrough endeavored to give
the State good. clean administration. but
he was hindered by the influences Of his
party on all sides and found little good
material from which to draw assistance.
The mere fact on his part to do his duty
rendered him so unpopular with his party
that he was given little or no consideration.
Mr.. Harrington has given definite pledges
along certain lines which must surely ap-
peal to the voters Of the State. He has
promised retrenchment in the expenditures
Of the State and there is no issue that
meets the popular demand more exactly.
He has also promised to remove certain
Objectionable features in the Primary Law
and TO make II more acceptable by dis
couraeine the undue and improper use Of
money in political campaigns, and the peo-
pie will be solidly behind him.
The support that must be given Mr..
Harrington in the coming contest. which
has been sifted down and is now between
the Democratic and Republican forces.
must not be minimized. The Democratic
party has mans size job to perform in
order to defeat Mr.. Weller There are ele-
ments Of strength connected with him. as
well as elements Of weakness.
On the whole, there can be little doubt
that the honest selection Of the people
will be Mr. Harrington.
