The Effect of the Resignation of Boss Wellington From the Chairmanship of the State Central Committee.
"Duke" Wellington has resigned from the chairmanship of the Republican party and Gen. Shryock has been seated in his place. The Baltimore American says: "The trouble in the Republican party is at an end. Like a summer thunderstorm, it has passed away, and among the traces is left nothing of a deleterious nature discoverable. Instead root, branch and foliage of party sentiment seem to have been brightened, freshened up and invigorated. The little disturbance has seemingly enthused the party and shaken it up, until now in every nook and corner of the State the necessity of getting down to the work bringing about victory is fully realized, and party workers are ready to devote themselves to the task with a vim and vigor that would otherwise have been called in play. The differences between the candidate for governor and the former chairman of the State Central Committee were more personal than political, and should not effect the result at the polls. This Senator Wellington fully acknowledged."
