Summary

Editorial discussing the Conservative Party in Frederick County and its actions at the recent "Convention" to nominate candidates for office. How did the initial number of representatives to the convention (7 in number) multiply and then come up with 2 members of the party's "Executive Committee" from each district? "There's something rotten in this business." It appears as if the party's candidate for Register of Wills actually constitutes the entire "Executive Committee." The Examiner challenges the Maryland Union to publish the names of the thirty-four members of the Executive Committee of the "Conservative" Party.
