THE Ro.tD tax QUESTION.
Let the Levy Court Vest the Receiver o
Taxes With the Proper Authority, Say


Mr.. Riggs.
Clerk of the Peace w. p. Biggs in
conversation Tuesday morning relative
to the complicated road tax question,
stated that he did not sec why the Levy
Court could not pass resolution instruct
ing Receiverof Taxes Dickey to continue
as has heretofore been the case in the col
lection of road taxes and the disburse-
ment Of claims for work done on the
county roads. Mr.. Biggs stated that
while the new Five Commissioner bill
said nothing with reference to the road
tax matter, still it did not repeal the
law heretofore in vogue. Mr.. Dickey,
he said, was anxious for such resolu-
tion to be passed by the Levy Court,
and when this action was taken he (Mr.
Dickey) would be vested with the
proper authority to receive the tax and
satisfy the claims of persons having per-
formed work upon the roads.
"ln St. Georges hundrcd,' continued
Mr.. Biggs "the law requires that s., 800
of the road tax must be deposited in
bank BY September LIST, to the credit Of
the road commissioners, and the COM
missioners in former years have paid it
out by check. The balance Of tile $4,000
required must be placed in bank by
January LIST, also to the credit of the
road commissioners. The system differs
in the various hundreds. In some of
the hundreds the law says, L
believe, that no work can be
done on The roads after October
list. In that case the community would be
seriously Inconvenience if the matter
is not adjusted soon to permit of the
work going on in the improvement of
the ropds. | think the Levy Court
could give Mr. Dickey instructions to
accept the road taxes and disburse them
subject to the law already i'll vogue
governing the road taxes iii each hun
dred. If Mr.. Dicke.. can secure some
authority from the Levy Court in this
respect, he will have no hestancy in
| adjusting the matter. He does not feel
disposed to go ahead and receive the
road taxes and pay the road orders on
his own account, and l think the course
he has taken is very wise one.
