Opposition to the Elkton and
Southern.

A meeting of the corporators of the
| E1lton and Middletown (Del. Railroad
Company was held on Tuesday afternoon
at the National Bank of Elkton, there be-
ing present Mr.. Jacob Tome, H. H. Brady,
Thomas Bremen and DIR John H. lamar.
A day was set for opening stock subscrip-
ton books. 1t is generally understood
that this company represents the interests
of the Philadelphia, Wilmington and
Baltimore Railroad Company and has an
appropriation from the State of Maryland
of SIS, 900 for the construction of this
road between Elkton and Middletown, on
the Delaware Division of the P. w. & B.
The recently incorporated Elkton and
Southern Railroad Company is at the
present time trying to get the Maryland
Legislature to transfer the sum named to
their credit, and to that end have intro
town Road has been incorporated since
1880. With the exception of procuring
a survey it had made no move looking
to the completion of the line. 1t is stated
by members of the company that the
Philadelphia Wilmington and Baltimore
Railroad Company means business and
that work will shortly be commenced.
This move is likely to block the way to
transferring the SIS, 900 which will knock
the bottom ont of the F1kton and South
ern The E1kton and Middletown branch
will not be built. Just show enough to
stop the transfer of the state money
which surely blocks the other game.

A Change in the Form Of oaths.

1t is proposed to change the form
of oath in this state now required by
law. With this object in view a bill
has been introduced which provides
oatbs to be hereafter taken or ad
ministered in this state shall be the
same as the oath prescribed Tor Off
GERS under the Constitution, viz, Il
do swear" and it shall not be lawful
to add thereto the words, SO help
me, Cod or any imprecatory words
whatever
'The manner of administering
oatbs shall be by requiring the per-
son making the same to hold up his
hand in token of recognition of the
solemnity of the act, except in those
cases when, from any cause this is
impracticable or it shall appear that
some other mode is more binding
upon the conscience of the swearer "
This is a move forward in old con.
sentative Maryland.
