WASHINGTON, June Al. G. Fisher,

Henry Kandt, county commissioner, Is the only
official of Dickinson county whose post-ofhce al
dress i not Abilene. II Abilene was not so mod
est and self-denying, we would expect her TO
claim the township officers also. but she don't
want the earth: she only wants Dickinson county.
-Anti-MOnOpolist.
If our Enterprise contemporary would
take the trouble to look into the Agri-
cultural report it will find that nearly
every officer of every county in the
State get their mail matter at the county
seats. Then again the above paragraph
is Senseless twaddle. The duties OF
county officers require them to live at
the county seat. If Dickinson county
was as proud of Abilene as Abilene is
of Dickinson county, there wouldn't
be this unjust prejudice against the city.
But the REFLECTOR would be pleased if
Mr.. Kandt could be persuaded to come
to Abilene to live. He would be vel
coined as valuable acquisition.

A Defective Law.

At the last session of the State
Legislature, the Governor was direct
ed to appoint a board to Inquire into
the practicability of draining swampy
districts in the counties of in the State
and planting eucalyptus trees. The
board was to be composed of one
Eastern and one Western Shore ply
stefan, one practical business man, the
Governor and the State Board of
Health. The act provided that the
necessary expenses of the board
should be paid out of the State Treas
ury, but as the rules of the treasury
department do not permit money to
be drawn from it for such general pur-
poses, the law cannot be carried into
effect. AS the object is good one,
we hope the next legislature will re-
enact it, leaving out the mistake.

fore the committee on appropriations.

men are entitled to the benefits of the
eight-hour law, they have been re-
quired to labor more than that num-
Der of hours per day. the bill provides
that the superintendent of the Naval
Academy shall at once compute the
time given by each man in excess of
that time since the passage of the
law, and directs that he be paid
therefor.
