What tho Herald Don't Know.

Our esteemed contemporary, the Balti-
more Herald, has but slight knowledge of
the new road law for Carroll, and its criti-
eisms on the provisions it does comprehend
are not based on sound judgment. The
Herald says the law recognizes the need OF
district government, which is conducive to
a better road system, but that it has defects
in that it provides that two Of the road
commissioners shall be of the dominant
political party and one from the party OF
the minority, and this, adds the Herald, is
what a good road law ought TO seek to
avoid
There are no mugwumps in Carroll, and
every man who is competent to be road
commissioner is either a Democrat or Re
publican. Therefore the commissioners
must be either Democrats or Republicans.
ParIisanship is not inconsistent with either
honesty or efficiency, aad in a county that
is Democratic ON the white vote of about
nine hundred majority it is only right that
a majority of the road commissioners should
be taken from the dominant party. This
is not paFtisanshiP; it is equity. Ii the
Office of commissioner were elective, then
the system would be carried into partisan
politics, and some districts would have all
Republican commissioners and sone all
Democratic In this event it might happen
that the commissioners would look more TO
partisan advantage than to the needs OF the
highways, and it was to avoid this that the
Office was made appointiye and the require
ment added that both parties should be rep
resented ia each district board.
And as further step in removing the
road system from partisan politics, the COM
missioners in appointing supervisors must
always give preference to those whose lands
bind on the highways Not only would this
feature avoid favoritism or partisassblp, but
It was thought that man would do better
work for the money 10 front of his own
premises than he would on road a mile
or two away. particularly if he did not have
to travel it much,
Under the present system there is Prac-
fically no supervision of the roads. Under
the new, the commissioners in going to
church, mills, postofices and in visiting
would coser all the roads in their districts
frequently snd could at all times know
whether the supervisors were doing their
work properly and economically.
The law makes no provisios for the SER
vices of competent engineer, as the Herald
suggests, but none is needed. If the people
proposed to expend about two millions of
dollars on their highways, an engineer corps
would be proper adjunct to the road sys-
TEN. At present it is not proposed to make
smooth bicycle routes for BaltimOfe's Sab
bath,breakers, aud thAt work will not be
undertaken until Mr. B. Howard Haman
gets oysters growing on the barren bottoms
of the Chesapeake and has them leased at
Two dollars an acre.

After the trying and disagreeable ex-
perienees of Saturday last, at the inaugu-
ration of President Cleveland, there will
be few to object to change of time for the
inauguration ceremonies to more mild and
genial season. Doubtless many persons not
only suffered from exposure to the iDcle-
meat weather, but laid the foundation for
serious indispOsilioa, BY all means lie; the
time be changed to May or June.

THAT BAD HALL OF RECORDS.

Register Fielder's Clerks Must Endure
Either Cold or Darkness.
Register FieIder's clerks are not very
easy to suit. During the winter mouths
they were continually complaining of the
extreme cold in the office. An inyestiga-
ton was made and it WAS discovered that
there were large crevices around The mas
siye iron window sills and frames, through
which the cold air rushed. Register
Fielder determined to remedy the matter
and accordingly made application
20 the Freeholders for wooden frames
and sills.
There are ten windows in the Regis
teris office aud the new sills cost some
where in the neighborhood of $1,000. The
air is kept out by the new sills ami
frames, but now the clerks are making
q vigorous kick about the Consumption
Of high space. The iron frames set ont
free from the windows. but the
construction of the wooden frames
necessfiated the use of about
s inches of window room. The ten win
dows use up In this manner about eighty
inches of window room, or nearly seven
feet. The clerks are now complaining
because the office Is dark. Register Fiel-
der ia thinking seriously of having an air
shaft cut in the roof at his own expense.
He intends pleasing his clerks no matter
what the cost may be.

Up the time of going to press 1t was
not known whether the accident caused
any loss of life.
Owing to the lateness of the our there
were few passengers on board. In one
car two or three passengers had been

may have perished.

This was shortly before the midnight

three feet and as the engine plonghed
through the water, it slipped the tracks

the cars with it,
One of the brakemen at once ran TO the
nearest station and telegraphed the news
