UPPER MARLBORO UPPKR MARLBORO. July 10. -Not in years has a more aggressive bitter political campaign been waged than the one now being prosecuted between the friends of Herman E. Burgess, of Hyattsville.

and R. Fultrm Gates, of Chillum district, both being aspirants for the Republican nomina tion ror the ornce of county treasurer to succeed Edward A Fuller, whose successor is elected the coming November to take the oath of office the following April. Mr. Burgess has twice been the Republican nominee, being defeated In 1911 by Richard J. Swann, Democrat, and again in 1015 by Fuller R.

Fulton Oafs was elected sheriff on the Republican ticket in 1915, and was chairman of the county draft exemption board. The contest between Burgess and Gates has, it is reported, developed into a scrap between the Republican forces In the county head ed oy tne Iljons, and those opposed to them. For many years the Ryons have been a most potent factor in county Republican politics, and during his life time the late Richard N. Ryon held the offices of register or willy, clerk of the circuit court, and county treasurer When he was elected county clerk by 500 majority every Democrat was elected. It is stated that State Senator Oliver MeUerott, of Chillum district.

Gardiner Cole, of Marlboro, and James B. Belt, or Melhvood, three of the leading Republicans in the county, are with Burgess fighting the Ryons, while W. T. Davis, a member of the house of delegates; Former County Commissioner John M. Bowie, and other leading Republicans are with Gates fighting for the supremacy -of the Ryon faction.

It is an intensely interesting potjtlcal situation, and Is given additional impetus by the recent announcement of Ooo'rtr Mer rick, of Marlboro, of his candidacy fori the office of State's attorney for the county.
