Mass was.at feature of the exhibitions of tensity
of feeling IN the capital today.
The encounter took place In the corridor of the

is surely on an equality with their
predecessors and there seems to be no
logical reason why anyone who be-
lieves in the principles Of the party
can not whole-heartedly support its
nominees
Hon Hugh A McMullen, the can
didate for Comptroller, is one of the
best business men of the state, man
who has made success in his own
business and who has brought to the
office to which he seeks reelection,
the same business principles and the
same indefatigible energy. His rec
ord is one that justifies his reelection
and Carroll must do her part towards
it.
The Democrats this year have
named Judge Robert Moss as their
candidate for the vacant associate
judgeship. He is gentleman of high
character of ability and of great eX-
perience in law. The Republicans
could not get a man to run against
him so he has no opposition.

K. Oursler, and for the Legislature,
James H. Steele, Frank J. Branden-
burg, John F. Maus and Charles G..
Wright, and for Surveyor NJ. TheO-
dore Yeiser are all men VINO measure
up we'll when compared with either
their predecessors or with those who
have been named by the Republicans,
there is no reason at all why each and
every one of these should not receive
the support of all who claim to be
Democrats. We are all aware of the
fact that the war has brought home to
us one and all many important ques-
tons which in Importance over shad-
ows all other things. Yet we must
remember that what we are fighting
for is the right to govern ourselves
and it certainly will not look like we
appreciate this inestimable privilege
if we do not exercise it.
We appeal to all Democrats to come
out to the polls and help to elect the
candidates of their party and feel GER
tain that in so doing they will be do
ing their whole duty as citizens and
public spirited men. Let not the news
be flashed to Washington that Mary
land has left the party of our great
President Woodrow Wilson. Do your
duty Democrats, come to the polls or
election day, Tuesday, November 6
and vote for the nominees of the
Democratic party.
