SCORCHER FOR GORMAN

Maryland Democrats Make It Hot for the Senator.

BEL AIR, Md., Aug. 12.--The tariff reform meeting of Harford county Democrats passed the following resolutions:

Resolved, First--That we cordially reiterate our indorsement of the Democratic national platform of 1892 and the efforts of our incorruptible president and the national house of representatives to formulate into legal enactment by the Wilson bill its promises and provisions.

Second--That, in the name of the Democracy of the county, we repudiate and condemn the obstructive and traitorous action of our senators from Maryland in congress, who grossly misrepresent their constituency at the behest of the sugar trust and other combines.

Third--That Senator Gorman's aspersion of President Cleveland and his patriotic course merits and receives our unqualified condemnation.

Fourth--That it is only consistent with the action of a senator who has published to the world his peregrinations through the filth and mire of politics, that he should longer consent to occupy the position he has sought to prostitute by his renegade course, conscious as he may be that he has betrayed the party which elevated him to it.
