ADJOURNMENT OF TIE LEGISLATURE. -
The Legislature Of Maryland adjourned
sine die at late hour on Friday night. /
During the session $50 laws We're passed |
most OF which are of local or private
nature. The most Important general |
laws enacted, relate to the finances of the
State, and are calculated to give greater
efficiency to our revenue system and to
cqualiZe the mode of taxation, under
which Maryland has already assumed an
enyiabIc position among her sister States
of the conicderacy.
The law imposing a tax on incomes
and salaries, which has been almost
dead letter from its first enactment, was
repealed. The Bridge which passes the
Senate, was lost in the House, as was al
so the bill fixing the salaries 9ithe Clerks
Of Baltimore city and county courts,
and the Register OF Wills, at $4,000.
The bill in relation to the sale Of spirit
uous liquors on the Sabbath day, also
failed to become a law, we believe.
The Legislature, under the biennial SEES
sions act, will not assemble again until .
December, 1919, unless in the me antime
the Governor should convene en- extra
session, which is not very probable.
