Mr.. Williams explained that a
person to prove up must have
some improvements, and if she
did not, she had betterkeep quiet

would likely cancel her proof if
this were made public. The next

state ROal Law Constitutional.

An important victory for the good roads
movement III Maryland was won last Friday
at Towson, Baltimore County, when Judge
Burke, sitting in the Circuit Court, decided
that the State aid road law, passed at the last
legislature and appIoprialing 100000 OF
state funds for the building Of county roads,
cannot be prohibited under the section
of the state constitution of 1867
which profits the state from appropriatlns
money toward any internal improvement
This decision was made as a result of a suit
brought by Mr.. Frank A. Bonsal to test the
constitutonalitv of the Act, by bringing IN
junction to restrain the county commission
ers from accepting and using any OF the state
aprropriations for the use of county roads,
and the victory for the road movement was
the more sweeping in that the declsisn OF the
court was rendered without it even being
necessary tor Messrs John S. Donaldson and
Osborne Ycllott, representing tie county
commissioners, to make any argument for
the defense.
III order that the matter may be finally
adiudlcated, an appeal from Judge Burke's
decision to the Court of Appeals has already
been entered, and If the higher court upholds
Judge Burke, as is expected, the validity Of
the law will be finally established and $780,
900 of state funds will be Immediately avail
able for county roads.
