be continued. Those who could
not take advantage of the first ex-
cursion should use every endeavor

full one, and every citizen of this
great Republic will feel prouder Of
his country after visit to its Cap

and it will be specially interesting
to watch the part your representa-

occupy its time and are SO freely
discussed by the press of the coun-

searches of Mr.. H. P. Tasker that
we called at his office to learn the
facts as they really exist.
A careful examination of his
abstracts of Titles convinced
us as it will convince ali fair mind
ed and impartial men, that he has
accomplished a HercuIean task of
great value to the taxpayers of
Garrett county. In 1887 he began
where Mr.. Pennington left off and
took up the list of thirteen hundred
military lots left blank and ''unde-
fined" IN Mr.. Pennington's Field
Book in the Commissioners office.
Mr.. Tasker's researches, which are
copied and indexed in large record
books, include all the transfers af-
fecting the untaxed tracts and
military lots which mostly belong
to non-residents from the dates of
their award to officers and soldiers,
including all the warrants, patents,
wills, deeds, public sales bv
trustees, sheritfs, constables, tax
collectors, false claimants, etc. He
has also analysed the assessment
books and demonstrates the
fact that there are 10000 acres
plated areas or 155, 900 acres by
actual surveys that are not assessed
at all and which it will be utterly
impossible for the assessors to get
at without the use of his abstracts,
etc. AT low valuation these I'M
taxed lands, belonging to non-resi.
dents, who have no local agents to
give them in to the assessors. will
amount to upwards of half a mil.
hon dollars, or from 200 tC
$6, 900 in taxes annually.
Taking all the facts into consid.
Grafton it strikes us as remarkably
strange that so many prominent
taxpayers, business men, lawyers
and politicians should have thrown
all the obstacles they could invent
in the way of Mr.. Tasker's work
which has no politics in it and which
is God-send to all tax payers re-

about it. Not being personally
interested we take Il calm. judicial
view of such matters. There are
some protected industries carried
on in these parts, but we have never
uttered word in their behalf. 1t
is all well enough to protect the
labor of New York, New England
and the great labor centers, for
they have unions and things there,
but we want none of it here. Put
iron ore, coal, lumber, wool and
everything this section produces on
the free list and ruin these indus
tries if it will, but no word of pro-
test will ever be uttered oy us. We
draw our substance from these
people, and these are the only in
dustries that make any business or
bring any money among them.
They declare it will cripple or
DESTROY their prosperity, but being
simply business men or ignorant
farmers what do they know about
it? We are Democrats and de-
mand that the party policy be car
ried out"
The Democratic administration
and law making power understand
the above to be the voice, the COM
mand of the people, If they are
mistaken it you'd be a good idea
for the people whose commission
they bear to send them an inter

THE Hawaiian snarl is playing
the part of Barquo's ghost for the
Senate. Notwithstanding the e.
forts Of the friends of the President
to keep the matter under the sur
face as much as possible, the enc
mics Of the administration manage
to bring the Hawaiian question mp
every few days in q way that shows
that they do not propose to wait
until the committee on foreign re-
lations has completed its investiga-
ton Of the case. But The indica-
tions now are that the Senate com
mittee engaged in the work of
investigating Hawaiian affairs is
approaching the conclusion of its
labors, and that their report will
probably be made within the next
ten days or two weeks.

two years only; has been as low as
two and one-half months for three
years, and has averaged only four

Baltimore, Howard, Kent and
Baltimore city had each $50 months;
Calvert had 1923 months, and the

Garrett, had FIVE months school;
three had seven and one-half; one
had eight and three-quarters; four
had nine; and twelve, counting
Baltimore city as one, had full ten

Of late years. about six to eight

Purposes.
a correspondent living in Oak

following communication, wherein
he fdvOrs the issuance of bonds for
the purpose of securing money with
which to build and equip new school
buildings:
To the Editor ofThe Republican.
In the issue of The REPUBLICAN
of last week | noticed an editorial
advocating the issuance of bonds
for the purpose of securing means
with which to erect school houses
IN Garrett county.
l want to say, as citizen and a
taxpayer, that | am in favor of is
suing the bonds and if it comes to
vote | will vote for it, but at the
same time | am against the issuance
of such bonds unless the question
is first submitted to the people OF
the county, and hope our represen-
tatives at Annapolis will frame the
bill so as to allow the people of the
county to say whether or not the
bonds shall be issued.
also hope that our representa-,
tiyes will be able to get a bill passed
allowing the people Of Garrett tc
elect the School Board by ball Ut.
This is right that belongs to the
people and | cannot see how any
true American citizen can be OBJ.
posed to the measure.
l hope that the Taxpayers will
take the bond question into con.
sideration and express themselves
freely through the press, so that
our representatives may know the
will of the people. is.

The Cleyeland policy of coward
ice has succeeded the Cleveland
policy of infamy.
According to advices from Wash
ington on Tuesday the AdminiStra-
ton, aided by the ever faithful
"cuckoos," proposes, in defiance
of the explicit understanding be-
tween Republican and Democratic
leaders in the House, to suppress
all debate on Hawaii in that body
for an indefinite period.
No more humiliating confession
of guilt could we'll be imagined than
this conspiracy to strange free
speech and prevent all discussion in
regard to matter which concerns
the honor of the Republic and the
maintenance Of the fights and dig
mites Of Congress against usurpa-
ton. If the President and his
advisers were not afraid of condem-
nation and punishment, they would
have nc reason for sitting debate
on the conduct of the Administra-
ton.
