Correspondence of The Evening Star. < Hockvitte, Mp., September 8, 1892, Nota great deal of enthusiasm has mani- | fested itself on either side in the campaign in ‘Montgomery county so far. The feud in the ranks of the republicans grows more bit- ter every day and scores who have formerly @een strict party men are now openly avowing their intention of not vot- ing for Wellington (the republican nominee for Congress), alleging that he has sided with Hus- band in his attempt to set up a county machine and has used his influence in his | behalf. The fight m the ranks of the| | party dates back about two years, when a new chairman to the county commitiee was to be | elected. On this occasion Husband and his henchmen threatened at least one member of the county committee with political extinction if he ventured to vote for a Quaker as chairman. In the past for many years the Quakers ia the Sandy Spring neighborhood comprised al- most the sole white element in the party in Montgomery county,and as such bore the brunt of the battle against overwhelming odds until reinforced by the establishment of the settlements along the line of the Metropolitan branch, which are very largely republican. Their opinions have naturally been given “much weight in party councils as pioneers, to- gether with a few others wattered through’ the county, such ae Capt. McDonald, and this raid unprovoked. ‘The fight «ince then has been smoldering. in April, when the county convention met to send delegates to the district convention, which elected delegates to Mizineapolis, Husband made a strong effort to run a ent-and-dried program through the convention, but was utterly re- pudiated by it. APPLYING MACHINE METHODS, Since then he has bent every energy to con- trol the recemi congressional convention ut Gaithersburg, aud in this he partially suc- ceeded, after the most outrageous application of machine methods at the primaries, un- known before in the county, aided, it is al- leged, by the treachery of Columbus F. Purdum,who profewed to be opposed to Hu band, but at the critical moment acted with him.’ Inasmuch as Mr. Purdum occupies a po- sition under Mr. Wellington and came to Gaithersburg fresh from conference with him this ix pointed to as significant regarding Mr Wellington's attitude in the affair. The primaries were warmly contested, the machine element especially fighting for control of Olney, Colesville, Wheaton, Darnestown and Potomae districts, in the latter secking mainly to defeat Capt. McDonald. all these emisaries were sent and Hiquor supplied. be machine men were beaten, however, in all of them, except in Wheaton, where the hot- test fight raged. In this district no notices of the prima Were posted in any of the import: points Kensington, Forest Glen, Woodside, Linde: Shgo, Silver Springs and Takoma--presumat that the republicans residing in them might b in ignorance of the meeting. e colored ¥oters controlled by Husband were informed of the meeting others were not. The primary was a tempestuous one, dueted by Husband totally without antho No right of speech was allowed those who were opposed to him and the chairman of the meet- ing was his willing and subservient tool. A protest against these and many outrages was made to the convention, whieh censured them and forbade their repetition. The exhibition of rowdyism, however. will have a depressing of- fect on all the lovers of fair play who were present. | con- A CONTEST AT THE POLLS, In conversation today a gentieman residing in the Wheaton district »ai “The whole performance deserves an over- whelming rebuke in November and I believe it © can go to conventions s# he agrees to his in- structions and that he s the delegates that | the county convention are popularly supposed | to choose. “As an instance of this the people of Takoma Park indorsed a certain gentleman as a dele- gate.

It is this sort of thing that makes a man sick of polit As stated, it is charged that Mr. Wellington took part in the fight, aud that hence he will be held responsible. ‘It seemes that before the convention was held Mr. Wellington disavowed any responsibility for Husband's actions and agreed to write a letter to him urging his over- zealous lieutenant to patch up a truce. This he did not do, but instead, sent Purdum, who, acting with Husband, threw the balance of | power against the nts of machine | methods.

They Claim That the Election Laws Are Un- Just to the Party. Correspondence of Ti ning Star. JACKSONVILLE, Fra., Sept. 8, 1892, The republican state conference called for this city lest Tuesday proved tobe of no im- portance and of no political significance as af- fecting the result of the elections in this state. When the delegates got together and found | that they numbered only about sixty—with scarcely a white man smong them—they saw at once that the movement was dead, and so they changed the conference into a state convention of the bureau of information—a sort of mutual benefit order among the blacks for disseminat- ing political and religious information and any- Florida and originated here. ‘Things are turning out about as the republi- ean leaders hoped six months ago. At that time they conciuded that the nomination of an electoral or a state ticket would be useless under: the present election laws of Florida. And they hoped. too, that the absence of s republican state ticket—a common enemy te tight —would tend to keep up the figit between the two fac- tions of the democratic party. ‘The birth and growth of the third party here may be traced directly to this lack of action on the part of the republican party. FEW “QUALIFIED” REPUBLICANS, But the hope of the third party leaders—to get the entire republican vote of the state—is rapidly fading away. The vote isn’t here to be got—that is, the qualified vote of the republican party is almost in-ignificant compared with the total number of republicans, white and black. To qualify a man must not only register and pass successfully all the intricate requirements of that system, but he must also pay his poil taxes for the two years following the last gen- eral election—in this instance for the years 1891 and 1892. This amounts to #2 a man-—the revenue going into the school fund. Now, there is no machinery forcollecting this sap tax except the wish of the elector to cast is vote. So nobody pays it except for this purpose. The republicans, therefore, who feel | ‘that their votes will not be counted anyway under the eight-ballot-box law, do not_care to put up @2 apiece for the privilege of having their votes thrown away. tenth of them have q: ied this year.

ANOTHER WAR GOVERNOR ADDED TO TRE LIsT— A MAN WHO THINKS THR COMMITTEE OUGET To PAY FOR THE PRIVILEGE OF ALLOWING THE OLD SOLDIERS TO WALK OVER THE BATTLEFIELD OF BULL RUN. Some time ago the citizens’ committee an- nounced their intention to invite the war gov- ernors to attend the encampment, It was sup- posed that there were only half a dozen or #0 living. But frora time to time some corre- spondent writes to ask why it is that Mr. So and So is not a good enough war governor for the committee, as he served his state in that capacity during the war. Still they do not no- tice his name in the list of those to whom in- Vitations are to be sent. In this way the com- mittee is perfecting its list and by this time no doubt they have nearly ail the names, Today through the kindness of a correspondent living in Weet Virginia who felt aggrieved that his friend, Francis H. Pierpont, who was governor of that state during the war, had not been in- vited, the committee promptly put the gov- ernor's name on the fist and eo notified his A HOMEOPATHIC SERVICE. friend. ‘''A committee of homeopathic doctors.conaist- ig of Drs.

Every Position of Attorney Hazelton Upset by Opposing Counsel, ‘This afternoon in the Police Court Judge Kimball decided what is known as the market house case, the judgment being adverse to the position taken by the Commissioners. The defendant in the case was a farmer named Patrick MeManue, and he was charged with failing to obey the rules laid down by the Commissioners respecting the south side of B street between 7th and 12th strects, which aro supposed to be enforced by Capt. Frank Aldrich, sealer of weights and measurbs, The sidewalk along the street mentioned has been marked off for stand for country people, |and the priviiege of them has been sold to formers. Mr. McManus objected to the treatment he received there a few days ago, and because he refused to do what ho thought the regulations did not require he was brought into court. Mr. Henry E. Davis, ex-nssistant attorney for the District, appeared for the farmer and Mr. Hazelton appeared for the District, ‘The facts were admitted and counsel pro- ed to argue the case.

Attorney Hazelton Wants Time Which to Prepare an Argument. The right of the Commissioners to revoke a | liquor license during the time covered by the | license for an alleged violation of the terms of | the license was questioned in the Police Court | today when the caee of Pyles & Psles of Union- town was on hearing. In this case, as hereto- fore published in Tre Stan, thé defendants were reported as selling in violation of the terms of their license and after a hearing be- fore the Commissioners the license was revoked. Lawyer Moss raised the legal question in the case and was prepared to make his argument, but Mr. Hazelton, who was present in court, thought the matter of «uch importance that be desired time to. make further inquiry into the law. Lawyer Moss was ready to admit the fac alleged, as he was confident that the law war on his side of the case, but the court continued it until next Wednesday. The facts in this case, it is said, are some- rs’ regimental match by a.score | what similar to the celebrated Brow:an liquor ‘ble 2,000. case. the agitation of which was followed by Wimbledon matches will be | the death of Capt. Blackford, and the decision in that case will probably be cited by the 1 trict when this cise comes up Wednesday. In that case the right of the Commissioners to re- voké licenses was sustaine: — Mr. Sloan Not Guilty. Mr. C. B. Sloan of the firm of Latimer & Sloan, auctioneers, at 1409 G street, was tried in Judge Miller’s court today on a charge of obstructing the sidewalk with carriages sent to him to be disposed of at auction. Policeman Kendall was the prosecuting wit- ness. ‘The case was brought because of a com- plaint made by Judge Kimball, who is a prop- erty owner on that square, The prosecution was brought under the po- lice regulations and Lawyer M. J. Colbert for the defendant argued that under the law in | Webb's Digest the defendant has a right to oc- cupy part of the sidewalk, 20 that travel is not impeded. he testimony of the officer was that the pavement is twenty-five feet wide and that there was a line of carriages on either side of it, leaving about twelve fect of the sidewalk The Representatives of the District Make a Good Showing. Correspondence of The Evening Star. Camp Srencer, Sea Grrt, N. J., September 7, 1892. ‘The District of Columbia will have no reason to be ashamed of the men who today did battle for the New Jersey interstate trophy on this most beantiful of rifle ranges. Heated was | hardly warm enough a term to apply to the last stage of the known-distance contest and when the skirmish runs are being disposed of tomor- row the mercury of expectation will get an up- ward move on itself that promises to crack the upper end of the tube. This unexpected and healthy friction was caused by the unexpected entrance into the match of a team from the six- teenth Pennsylvania. Asa matter of fact the Keystone boys had no right to rhoot and for some time it was a question as to whether they would have a chance to face the targets today. ‘The Pennsylvanians arrived bere last night, but | clear. they came merely aso many members of the} Judge Kimball's proof was that on the day state tenm which will compete for the Hilton | charged there was a space of about three feet and interstate trophies on Friday. This morning they made up their minds to burglarize their way into the New Jersey inter- state, but they neglected to put in an appear- ance on the range untilevery other team had abovt finished their scores at 200 yards. Gen. Spencer was of the opinion that the entry could not be received, but he called all the team captains into consultation and they finally de- cided to allow the new comers to come in under protest. which means that if the thir- ‘eenth Pennsylvania should happen to have the biggest aggregate when the match closes it will not be permitted to take possession of the trophy. In short, the Pennsylvania team is in this match simply for the practice that can be gotten out of it. Without any idea that any other sections of the country were to be represented in the con- test the Jerseymen and Washingtonians got down to real business at 200 yards very soon after 9 o'clock. When they concluded the ten- shot score the first regiment D. G. and of the videwalk clear. The defendant in his own bebalf said he had always complied with the law. He referred to the provecution axa persecution and said that his business had been greatly decreased thereby. Judge Miller paased on the law and the jury decided the facts. They returned a verdict of not guilty. Two Divorces Applied For.
