RICHIE, MASON, HARRISON AND
MAGRUDER

Here is the Democratic state
ticket which is picked by the
party leaders as most likely to be
nominated:
Governor-Albert C. Richie.
of Baltimore.
Comptroller-Orlando Harrison
of Worcester county.
Attorney General-J. Angus
tine Mason, of Washington coun-
ty.
Clerk of the Court Appeals
C. C. Magruder, of Prince Geor-
ge's county.
Mr.. Richie is attorney general,
having been elected four years
ago by $4,000, majority, while
the majority for Governor Har-
rington was less than $500. At
ter his election Mr.. Richie was
brought forward as candidate
for governor in 1919. He was
asked TO be a candidate for may
or last spring, but declined, as
his friends demanded his nomina.
ton for governor. Before he
was elected attorney general he
was assistant counsel of the
Public Service Commission.
Mr.. Harrison is the incumbent
senator from Worcester county
and is the most extensive fruit
grower in the state, with large
apple, peach and other fruit Or
chards on the Eastern Shore and
in Western Maryland. He is one
of the pioneer advocates of good
roads. The agricultural interests
of the state are asking for his
nomination. They would prefer
him as candidate for governor,
but the demand that Baltimore
be awarded the gubernatorial
nomination makes him ineligible
this year.
Mr.. Mason is one of the most
distinguished lawyers of Western
Maryland. While prominently
identified with the Democratic
party for many years he has
never been an office seeker.
Mr.. Magruder has been Clerk
of the Court of Appeals for two
terms of six years each. His
home is in Prince Georges county.
If there is no opposition to
these gentleman there will be no
fight in the party primaries in
September. DR.. J. Hubert
Wade, chairman of the State Gen.
trail Committee, will shortly is
sue a call for meeting of the
committee to fix dates for the
primary and for the state con-
vention.
