Special dispatch to the Baltimore san Cumberland md., May la not assured that congressman George a. Pearre will have Allegany county a endorsement without opposition for the Republican renomination for Congress. He Bas the organization. And that would indicate that he will have the county s endorsement in the primaries in the event he has no opposition. Among the few Active persons in the organization boosting Pearre Are tile Federal officeholders in the county. The average Republican voter is indifferent. Taking it for granted that or. Pearre will have of the county in the congressional convention but biding time to Settle old scores with him at the polls in the event lie should land the Nomona Tom. Several persons with congressional aspirations in this county would enter the debt to wrest the county from Pearre in the primaries in tune if they had reasonable Jope of securing the nomination. It is not believed the other counties would nominate the Man who might beat Pearre in this county. This has a deterring effect but still it has not been fully decided to let Pearre have the county without a lost this county at the election two years ago by nearly i. His opponents in his own party declare he Bas since done nothing to strengthen himself but instead he Bas lost strength. At one time it War the boast of his friends that labor was behind him.

Lewis who came out of the mines and is now one of the leading attorneys of the Allegany bar is a favorite with labor in whose cause he has never lost interest. It is declared that since two years ago colonel Pearre has done nothing to conciliate his political enemies but has added to the number that brought a majority of once 1,800 for him to nearly 300 against him. Congressman Pearre s brother. William Pearre is postmaster of Cumberland and desires reappointment. The renomination and re election of congressman Pearre. It is stated would bring that about.

The latter has recommended or. Ravenscroft for reappointment As Surveyor of the port. A position which he has held some years. In return for this favor or. Ravenscroft it is said will deliver Garrett county to or. Pearre. It is significant that the Oakland Republican the Only Republican paper in Garrett county has withdrawn it support from colonel Pearre and is printing matter which gives Comfort to his enemies. The daily news the Republican Organ in Allegany county and the Hagerstown morning Herald the Republican Organ in Washington county have been printing articles which would indicate that they too Are after the congressman a Scalp.
