Baltimore & Belair Electric Railway.
The Lauer and Harper Company, of West
port, Baltimore county, has just completed
for the use of the Baltimore d Belair
Electric Railway, at Long Green run, on the
Baltimore and Hartford turnpike, near the
residence of Mr.. Charles J. Bonaparte. This
is plate-girder bridge, of 80 feet span, capa-
BILE of carrying both the turnpike and the
railway travel, and is a great improvement
over the old wooden structure, which had been
in use for so many years at that point. Mr..
VIM. E. Anderson, contractor, will recon-
mence the grading begun last fall, and sus-
pended on account of the severe winter, within
the next week or so, and it is hoped that cars
will be running as far as White Marsh run by
the first of May.

The Farmers just Claim for Help


Samuel Hill, of Washington, recently gave
the agricultural committee of the Senate a
sharp talk on the subject of good roads, and
incidentally made very strong point in up
holding the claim of farmers on the Govern
ment for assistance. Inasmuch, said the
Washingtonian, as the farmers are paying 80
per cent of the taxes, they are entitled to some
relief in the shape of aid in road making. OF
all people the farmer is the least successful in
escaping taxes. 1t is easy to assess his prop
erty, and there is no doubt he is doing more
compared with what others pay. 1t is nothing
more, therefore, than plain justice that class
which bears so heavy burden is entitled to
consideration when it askes for help in the
improvement of the ordinary highways, so in.
despensable for the comfort, advancement and
prosperity of all the people.
Diverting part of the public funds to the
cause of good roads, of course, brings benefits
to the farmers in return for what they had
paid in taxes. But perhaps greater relief
would be afforded if the farmers were COM
PEELED to pay less in the shape of taxes. This
relief could be given if those now escaping
taxation were made to pay their share. The
farmer would not find the burden so heavy If
the railroads, for Instance, were assessed as
near their value as other property is. If they
were compelled to bear relatively as large a
part of the tax burden as the farmers bear, the
farmers taxes would be considerably reduced.
So much money is required 20 run the Govern
ment and the farmers are putting up more
than their share of it.

William n. Wand, executor.
The will of Frederick Ditzel was admitted to

household effects and one-third of his other
property absolutely to his widow, Elizabeth
Ditzel. The residue is to be divided into i've
equal parts which shall go to each of his chill
dren or their descendants. By codicil he

"faithfulness and kindness to me in my old
age" the sum of $500.
The will of Lena Wand, also admitted to

Still Collecting Toll on the Road.-Mr.
James Brian, a well known business man of
Middle River, 18th district, sent a letter to the
County Commissioners this week complaining
that the Back River Neck Turnpike Company
is attempting to collect toll from persons trav-
cling over it, in violation of law. The Board
referred the matter to Maj. John /. Yellott
who some time since represented the company
in a negotiation for the transfer of the turn
pike to the county. He Informed them that
persons who collected tolls were liable to be
arrested for disobeying an order of the court
and for interfering with a county highway.
There have been many complaints because the
toll-gate is said to be kept open.
