Convention Plans For Maryland Traders Association
Arrangements are under way for the annual convention of the Associated Hoards of Trade of Maryland to be held in Frederick on November 16. President Taft has promised to attend and invitations have been sent to other prominent figures, with Governor Wilson of New Jersey regretting a scheduling conflict. J. Bolgiano & Son of Baltimore issued a 1912 Bulb Catalogue offering bulbs and poultry supplies free by request. The fashion mentor from Paris is cited regarding next season's trends, while the Journal invites readers to send social notes. Primary results in Cecil County shifted control on the State Central Committee, and an Easton boat incident saw an escape by an inmate. Rockefeller ancestry is traced to 1723. Editorials urge party unity and road-building plans in Caroline, Queen Anne’s, and Wicomico.
