Who for Mayor and councilmen.

Occasionally in past years the time for
electing Mayor and Common Council for
Westminster has been an occasion for sport.
The government of the city is now a serious
matter, and a number of tax payers the
present week have been casting about for
suitable persons TO manage the affairs OF the
city for next year.
Westminster has n debt of about SIS, 600,
and the Mayor and Council are authorized by
a recent act OF the Legislature to issue $751;
900 in bonds to complete the work of street
improvement. 1t is quite certain these bonds
will be issued. II more stone is not put on
the centre of Main street, it will not be long
before the bed will be considerably worn, and
the expense of maintaining repairs will be
considerable. Besides, it is necessary to
improve the side streets, in order to keep the
mud off of those that have been improved.
The present Mayor and Council deem S15,-
600 sufficient for the purpose of completing
street improvements, and their experience
should render their Judgment quite accurate.
The general sentiment of the people is that
the present city officers should continue in
office another term. Their pay is insignifi
cant, and they have given much time to their
public duties. Nearly all of them want to
retire, but the opinion prevails that they
should stay in Office until the public improve
ments begun are completed. They have ex-
perience and know exactly what work yet
remains to be done. FOR their education in
the matter the city had to pay, and it might
be an expensive piece of business to pay for
the education Of another set of officials The
present government know how to avoid the
mistakes of the past. A new government
might have to learn by costly experience.
For these reasons tax payers want the
present officials to remain in office another
term. If they will consent they will be
elected next Monday by laI. ye vote.
1t is regarded as absolutely es- initial for the
good of the city that at least majority con-
sent to serve, and it is hoped that if all can
not be induced to remain in for another
year, three of the six will stand for re-elec-
ton.

Death of wen known COlOred woman.

Eliza Husen, who died on Friday last at the
Maryland Infrmary, Baltimore, where she
had undergone severe surgical operation,
was the COOK at Dielman's Hotel, New Wind
scr for the last nine years, and was faithful,
honest, and valuable servant. She will be
greatly missed by both employers and guests,
whose wants she supplied with such satisiac
ton, and her place cannot be easily filled.
The large attendance at the funeral, which
took place on Sunday, from the parlor of the

for Eliza by her friends. There were all
classes present on the occasion. After services
at the hotel the body was taken to the grave
yard at the ''HiIls'' in Frederick county.
Her age was 80 years.

CARROLL'S HIGH LICENSE LAW
Is the Bill Signed by the Governor the Same
One that Passed the Legislature

This is the question now agitating the minds
of hotel and saloon keepers and prohibition.
lists, and for once these two antagonistic
classes are working to the same end-to have
the high license law for Carroll declared mill
and void
The State Temperance Alliance have en-
ployed Reifsnider & Reifsnider to investigate
the matter, and ascertain whether the act
signed by the Governor is the one passed by
the Legislature, and the liquor dealers have
employed ID. N. Henning, Esq, for the same
purpose.
In Carroll county the people are temperate
as rule. There is considerable sentiment
in favor ofprohibition and another strong senti.
ment favorable rather to stringent regulations.
Freedom district had local option law, the
village Of Mt Airy had one, and there was a
special license law for New Windsor and
Uniontown districts. A strong petition
was presented 10 the Legislature for the sub
mission of local option law for Woolerys
district, and as a compromise measure be-
tween the local optionists and those favoring
stringent regulation of the liquor traffic with
high license the present law was enacted.
The law imposes a license of 800 on hotels
and 5000 on saloons. In addition it has very
stringent provisions regulating the sale of
liquors. Three-fourths ofthe license, the bill
provides, shall go TO the school board, and
will, if not set aside, yield considerable
revenue and materially aid the board in re-
lieving itself from debt.
The Prohibitionits wanted the existing law
for Freedom district to stand, and believe the
bill as passed by the Legislature exempted
the district from the operations of the law.
As published, the act repeats all other acts,
and the high license law applies to the whole
county. As soon as the Prohibitionists began
to investigate the law, the liquor men took up
the matter also, and counsel are now investi-
eating the records for the purpose of ascer-
tanning whether the law signed by the Gov
ernor is the one passed by the Legislature or
not. 1t is expected that the law, if it should
be found to be correct, will come very near,
on the one hand, of suppressing the liquor
traffic in TIE durely rural districts, and, on
the other, save the liquor dealers from having
their business suppressed entirely.
