Election Annulled by Directors.

There is said to be dissatisfaction

Office of secretary treasurer of the

eight months, or since the resigna.
ton of Samuel G. Bye, Jas. A.
Mackey and Edward Carhart Of
Zion. Carhart received liz votes,
while the other two candidates com
bined polled 1852 votes. The con-
tention raised by some of the stock
holders is that Carhart, not having
received majority of the votes
cast, is not elected.
At a subsequent meeting of the
directors at Calvart, the election OF
Edward Carhart as secretary and
treasurer was declared unconstitu-
tional, owing to the fact that Car
hart did not receive majority OF
the votes cast at theannual election,
but had the largest vote polled.
After the election had been annull-
ed, the power of selecting secre-
tary and treasurer was with the
board of directors, who unanimous
ly appointed Mr.. Carhart to the
position for one year.
1t is open to doubt that the &C.
ton of the directors is legal, owing
to their failure to hold legal cleo
ton.

Communicated.
The Editor of the Cecil Democrat in
the last issue of his paper says: "It is adj
mitted that liquor is now being sold by
nutnberless persons and in great quantities
in all parts of the county and that the
prohibition law is powerless to stop ii"
Now this is about on par with what is
constantly heard from those who expect
to hang out their signs in case the county
goes for license and those whose ungov-
ernable appetite for liquor cause them to
spend their hard earnings to crafty the
same, regardless of the ruin and misery
they bring upon themselves and families
and as has been the case in the past com
init perjury in order to screen the violator
of the license law. The Editor of the DEM
ocrat certainly did not mean what he has
said or did not properly consider what he
was saying when he used the word num-
berless, which like the stars in the 6rma-
ment are innumerable and cannot be
counted. If he or any one else will name
even one person who is running an illicit
whisky ranch and furnish the proof that
he is violating the law, that person will
most certainly be furnished a free ride to
Jessups Cut soon after the next term of
court, unless such trials end in farce.

Cecil County Dog Tax.

The assessors appointed to assess
the dogs in Cecil county for the
purpose of taxation have made their
return to the county commissioners,
with the exception of two districts.
The number of dogs so far assessed
in seven districts is 1852, and as
the two districts to make returns
are two Of the largest, it is probable
that 5000 dogs will be assessed in
Cecil this year. The commissioners
are determined to collect this tax,
which is 81 per head, and all taxes
that are not paid at the proper time
will be placed in the hands of the
cOnstables for collection.
