THE TAXPAYERS ASSOCIATION.
Proposed laws To Be Recommend
ed To The Senator And
Delegates.

The Taxpayers Association of Anne
Arundel county will hold a meeting
at the Court House on Thursday. Jan.
uary IL, at 10 O'Clock when all the
taxpayers of the county are urged to
attend. Many Of our citizens are not
fully aware Of the strong influence
and the quiet, effective work which
this association contributed towards
the awakening of the people which
resulted last November in the wrest.
ing of the management Of our coun-
ty affairs from the control of reckless
squanderers OF the taxpayers money.
The positions which these unfaithful
public servants held are now filled by
honest, capable men, and the whole
county is to be congratulated upon
the change. 1t is the dawn of better
day for the tax-ridden people of our
county. While this association be.
lieves that the troubles we have are
more the fault of the bad administra.
tlon OF existing laws than the lack of
enough laws, yet there are some new
laws which we should ask our leois-
latuIe to pass, so that our taxpayers
and citizens generally may, while
honest men are in control and have
the opportunity, so firmly establish
economical methods aud precautions
against fraud and extravaganza as to
keep out of office forever hereafter
bad men who are never the choice of
the people.
The principal source of waste and
graft has been in the management of
the public roads. 1t was clearly
demonstrated before our association
at its meetings last summer that un-
der an economical system of working
the roads, such as some of the coun.
ties of Maryland have. we can secure
much better results than we now have
and at the same time save at least
$50. 900 year from what we have
been spending. We should, therefore,
recommend the passage of such a law
Many other subjects require legisla-
tion, and it is hoped that no time will
be lost in making such recommenda-
tions as may seem desirable
The district taxpayers associations
are requested to hold meetings in the
meantime and be fully represented at
the general meeting in Annapolis on
the 18th of January.
