The State of Maryland's Finances.
D.Jts... - ~

Maryland is in easy financial circumstances
The report of DR.. Joshua W. Herring, Comp
troller of the Treasury of Maryland, shows
that the debts of the State are not large and
that the State holds live assets nearly equal to
its Indebtedness. Within period of six years
the State has appropriated about 100000
for Improvements in public buildings. Yet
this liberal sum has in no way taxed the re-
sources of the State. Its outstanding loans are
the penitentiary loan of 1896, $500, 900; Insane
Asylum loan of 1896, 500, 900; consolidated
loan of 1898, So. 401 ,92613; State Building loan
of 1900, $500, 600; State loan of 1902, $500 600.
The grand total is Sc, 800, 326.13.
The State has securities in its sinking funds
amounting to S1,974, 587. Its annuity from
the Northern Central Railway under the recent
decision of the United States Supreme Court
amounts to 800 900, or it might be capitalized
at 100000. 1t has $3.50 600 of the stock OF
the Washington Branch of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad, which. is valued at 81 ,O0OO
and other assets of about 100000, go that its
net Indebtedness above its securities is less than
s1.000,000.
State revenues amount to about 81 500, 600
annually. About ST. 100000 of this sum is
rsised by direct taxes amounting to seventeen
cents on the $780, Twelve and one. half cents
of this tax is applied to the pubicschool fund.
Licenses, annuities, franchise taxes. ETC., make
up the rest of the revenues of the State. The
State pays annually S900,0 900 in education and
$3.50 600 in the maintenance of charitable in
stitutions During the administration of Ex-
Governor Lowndes the finances of the State
were put upon a firm business basis. and they
have since been kept in fattering condition.

THERE IS blood on the moon in Hagerstown.
On Wednesday last there was a scrapping
match on the streets of that stiad town between
no less personages than Mr.. Richard ]. Ham
ilton, editor ofthe Daily Nail, and Mr.. Samuel
P Angel, sheriff of Washington county. Not
withstanding the latter's lovely name and
high official position he deliberately slapped
MIR. Hamilton in the face and there was
general mixup for about two minutes and
few seconds. The trouble grew out of the fact
that Mr.. Hamilton-who is a son of the late
Governor of that name-criticised Sheriff

IT is hoped that the report is true that Con-
gress intends to look closely into the causes of
the fuel famine in the District of Columbia,
by following the whole course of the coal from
the miner to the consumer. Somebody be-
tween the two is squeezing huge profit out of
the situation and the class of operators to
which he belongs ought to be identified for
public information and legislative action.
Anthracite is reported to have been marked
up to 500 a ton in Washington. Beyond any
reasonable doubt the supply, the transporta-
ton. or both, have been cornered and the
public is held up in spirit of cold-blooded

THE ST. LOUIS Globe Democrat says lone OF
the most important gatherings of the year in
this city will be the convention of the Ma
tional Good Roads Association, which will be
called to order April 9th and continue until
May I'd, inclusive. Fifty thousand invitations
have been issued. The Governors of all the
states are urged to come and to appoint dele
gates. Every judge of county court in the
United States has been requested to namedele-
gates and alternates from his county. Each

be in bullion, as it simply secures the more

Of the economic art Of refreshing
bread and cake that are slightly stale
and hard by the simple device of bak
ing second time? Ends Of loaves,

Saratoga Wide Awake.

The town of Saratoga is more
plentiful in building plans than
Chicago" Big schemes of all
kinds are ahoat, and the citizens
express a confidence that bsgets a
general ''goed feeling"
Mining is of course the keynote,
but irrigation propositions of great
size are absorbing much attention,
and plans and specifications for
large bitches are numerous. If
carried out these plans would
make the country around Sarato-
ga resemble a Venice.
Rumors are abroad of a we'll
concerted movement to build an
immense hotel at the hot springs,
and advertise Saratoga far and
wide as a health resort. This
plan has been Matching for some
time and it is now understood
that men of means have undertake
en- the proposition. The hot
springs in question are very large
and Lave long been known to have
waters of rare medicinal proper
ties. No plans for the proposed
hotel have as YET been given
out, but that a hotel of importance
to this part of Wyoming will soon
be built, the citizens of Saratoga
have no doubt.
The construction of adequate
waterworks for the town is also
an absorbing topic, and many are
of the opinion that the $4,000
water bonds recently voted will
not be sufficient. improvements
in the electric light facilities and
the grading of roads and building
of sidewalks evince a feeling of
general confidence on the part of
the people.-Double jack Cores

WEsT.sIDE CANAL.
A Company to Take Water From the En-

jaoent to saratoga-wort to be Com
mencod This Spring.

F. N. Riggs, w. E. Blake, George
w. Foot, j. G. Rankin and Phil.
Rairden, have been here the past
week to look over the ground and
perfect plans for the construction
of a large canal to be taken out of
the Encampment river, just above
where it empties into the North
Platte river. The canal will be
sufficiently large to cover all the
land available between Saratoga
and the point of diversion, as well
as about 1000 acres just west of
Saratoga If there is sufficient
demand for water the canal will
be carried across Jack creek to the
lands north of hat stream, much
of which is at present owned by
the Jack Creek Land K Cattle
Company and is at present used
for grazing.
The same parties looked over
the lands ON the east side of the
river and have expressed their
Willingness to undertake to CON
struct a canal to cover a large
body of land lying east of Sarato-
ga, between the North Platte riv-
er and the mountains, should the
company which nov has applaca-
tions in for that privilege fail TO
do the work.

Option on Monsy-Maker.

Earle R. Clemens, editor of the
Herald, has taken a ninety-day
option upon the Money Maker
group near Dillon upon which
Jack Goodwin has made a surpris-
ingstrike of copper ore a few days
ago. The Money Maker is not a
new proposition, but is one upon
which considerable prospect work
has been done, enough at least to
show up a fifty foot vein of bog
iron, hematite iron and schist,
carrying values in copper which
are seldom duplicated SO near the
surface. Several tons of ore has
been taken out which shows as
says as high as fifteen per cent.
copper, and efforts to secure an
average brought out a value Of
seven per cent. copper,-sufficient
to make the property exceptional
ly desirable for a prospect.-En-
campment Herald.

Gus. Jensen, who has charge of
the business of the firm of Hugus
d Jensen, at this place, is having
the "Hugus Ditch," south and
west of town, cleaned out and en-
larged. Where the ditch winds
around the bluffs, just above the
hot springs, some blasting of rock
is required to deepen the ditch at
that place. When this work is
completed the ditch will carry a
third more water than ever before.
The demands for water under
this ditch increase every year and
the lands under it are becoming
more and more valuable.
