Gratis in the last LEGISLATURE and %

placed.
OF interest in the election. which
did little more than increase the
already powerful Democratic ma
jority, was the Democratic trend
in normally Republican counties.
For example. Calvert County )
delegation, solidly Republican last
session, will be solidly Democratic
in 1899. Carroll County, which pre-
viously registered five solid G. o. P.
legislative votes. will be split this
session. with Republican Senator
and two Republican delegates
aligned against two Democratic
delegates.
Garrett and Allegany both main
tanned an unbroken Republican
front. but Washington County re-
placed its Republican Senator with
Democrat and gave its Democrats
in the House majority of four
to two. Last session, Washington s
Delegates was split three to three.
Frederick County likewise re-
placed Republican Senator with
a Democrat and gave it's House dele
CATION Democratic four -to-one
majority, compared with three-to-
two last session.
