OuR PUBLIC RoADs.-By reference
TO the report Of the Grand Jury, pub
lished in our local columns, it will be
seen that special attention is called to
the condition of the Public Roads.
The recommendations therein contain
ed are in our opinion wise and whole
some and it is to be hoped that the
County Commissioners will act upon
them. 1.-THE bad places be thorough
ly repaired and not simply patched
~ has been the custom heretofore and
all repairs be done by competent and
responsible parties" We will have
roads that persons may travel over
without serious risk of "break
down" The roads can not be made
worse than they now are and any
change in the present system Of road
mending would be for the better.

THE MD. TOBACCO INSPECTION SYs,
TEM.-The tinkering by our Genera
Assembly with the present system o.
tobacco inspection has rean,t~1 IN
something like a deadlock. The Sem
alto has passed the Gill bill which
was defeated in the House, the latter
substituting and passing the bill of
our delegate, Mr.. Wilkinson, in its
stead. Before the latter becomes a
law, it has TO run the gauntlet of the
Senate and obtain the approval of the
Governor, At this late hour of the
session, it is unlikely that the Senate
will act on the measure, and still moi e
Improbable that it will take favorable
action, Thus. the present system Of
tobacco inspection, beingin possession,
ii will remain in possession and con.
tinue in force two years longer.

MARRIAGE LICENSE FEE.--The bill
reducing the marriage license from
$3.50 to SO cents having passed both
branches of the Legislature only re-
quires the signature OF the Governor
10 make it a law. Provided the Gov
ernor signs the bill, it will cost SO. 80
less to be married in Maryland than
heretofore, and considerable revenue
will be lost to the State Treasury.
The friends Of the bill advocated it
for principle merely, for under the
present law persons who were toe
economical or too poor to buy mar.
riage license, could avoid it by haviue
the bans published in any church.

Our DUTY.-The Republican party
is already at work organizing and pre-
pairing for the approaching political
campaign and it would be well for the
democrats of this county to take to
heart the old adage, "fas est ct ab
hoste docyi." The FIRST thing to be
done is to harmonic our warning fac
lions and to this end the give and
take principle must be invoked.
Whilst it might be possible that one
faction alone is responsible for the
division in our ranks, it is hardly pro-
bable that the other faction is entire
ly blameless. Until some plan is fix
ed upon to enable US to present q
united front to the common enemy
approaching political campaigns will
be only repetition of past defeats
Our opponents understand giving ant
taking and how to harmonic diff
ferences before election day and w
repeat that "it is right TO derive in
struction even from an enemy" W.
have had enough experience to i'm
press upon us the necessity of harmo
ny and we might as well take to hear
now lesson we should have learned
long ago, without waiting for tht
repetition of an oft-repeated dose
Will not some one propose plan Il
bring about the desired consumma
ton?

THE ARMY.
Sheridan s, Recommendation Relative tc
State Troops, Rife Practice, and
Seaboard Defenses.

The annual report of Lieut.. Gen. Sheri-
dan has been made. covering the period
from his assignment to the command of
the army, Nov, l, 1888, to Nov. /, 1884,
He says that during this time the entire
territory under the supervision of troops
has been unusually free from collisions, re-
suting in loss either of life or property,
blt that the services of the military in the
West cannot be safely dispensed with for
many years to come. With liberal allow
ances Of ammunition and better facilities
for target practice than hitherto, much
thought and attention has been given to
rihe-iring The high scores attained in the
annual contests for army prizes the past
season attest most gratifying progress in this
vitality important branch Of military instruc-
ton. The establishment of higher grade
of sharpshooters has developed many marks
men of wonderful skill in the use of the
rifle for distances up to thousand yards,
and it would now be impossible for a close
line of battle to stand up before skirmish
line composed Of our qualified marksmen
The Lieutenant General expresses great in
terest in the National Guard of the States,
and thinks Congress should designate the
number of men each State should have, and
provide for them arms and camp and gar
rison equipage, under some wise method Of
accountability for this property, whenever
State governments themselves appropriate
substantial sums of money for the support
of their respective military systems in such
manner that these sums cannot be affected
by party legislation. Excepting for our
oceaifcommerce and for our seaboard cities
he does not think we should be much
alarmed about the probability of war with
foreign powers, since il would require more
than a million and a half of men to make
a campaign on land against us. To tnns-
port from beyond the ocean that number of
soldiers, with all their munitions of war,
their cavalry, artillery, and infantry, even if
not molested by us while in transit, would
demand q large part of the shipping of all
Europe. He earnestly invites Immediate
attention to the defenseless condition Of
seaboard cities, and urgently recommends
the early beginning of general system of
seacoast Notifications TO be constructed
in accordance with the requirements in
volved by the latest improvements in heavy
artillery. This nation, he SAYS. lis grow
ing so rapidly that there are signs of other
troubles which l hope will not occur, and
which will probably not come upon us if
both capital and labor will only be conserva-
tive. Still, it should be remembered de-
structive explosives are easily made and that
banks, United States sub-treasuries, public
buildings and large mercantile houses can
be readily demolished, and the commerce. of
entire cities destroyed by an infuriated peo-
pie with means carried with perfect safety

Gen. Sheridan thinks Fort Riley, for all

General OF the Army advocates, among
other things, the abandonment of temporary
forts for permanent posts near reservations
and at other strategic points, the posts to
be provided with comfortable barracks and
quarters for the troops, recommends certain

tinue business.
Secretary McCulloch is busily en-
gagged in the preparation of his annual re-
port to Congress. IL is intimated he will

Secretary McCulloch has prepared q
