THE FEARFUL STORM,

Lack OF space prevents us from giving
the details of the storm that swept over
the western end of Hartford county on
Thursday afternoon of last week. The
damage done by wind and hail will
amount to thousands and thousands of
dollars, and the loss falls directly on
class of people who can i'll afford it. The
storm commenced near Upper Cross
Roads and ended in the two Necks. 1t is
impossible for us to specify the losses. as
wheat fields, corn fields and fruit trees
were DESTROYED in such great numbers.
Woods are cut bare of their foliage and
many handsome groves have had their
shade trees uprooted.
Among those who met with losses
were Judge E. Carvil Tolley, Messrs.
George Richardson, Harry F. Ashton,
August Martin. Noble L. Mitchell. D. p.
Hollingsworth, H. w. HAYS, ]. B. Twin.
ing, James Watson, James Shea, ]. Viii

Harford's Financial Condition.
BEL AIR, MD, Iune At

BEL AIR, MD, June 4th.
The editor of a paper is no more justi-
fed in trying to mislead his fellow men
than any other individual. and it is a
poor way to gain the confidence of the
people.
The Times. for some reason, best known
to the publishers, over two years ago at
tackled the County Commissioners office
and said the county was $4,000 or
$4,000 behind; now they head their
article with $S5, 900. They give figures
and close with an indebtedness of
$S1, 500; they give amounts of different
accounts, which have been oyerdrawn,
for instance, the road money in the fifth
district. This account stands about as
it did when ! went into office; in my
judgment where the levy has been INSULT
Gent at the end ofthe year, they should be
charged to the contingent fund, and a
new account opened each fiscal year.
The editor is misleading all through his
article, merely giving over drafts; he failed
to give any moneys due from the
state, all of which are to be received on
last years work, or any money received
from the Woolsey estate.
Our books are open to any one desiring
to investigate them; and we would be
glad to have the editor have the creditors
of this $81, 562 draft on us, so we can
locate them.
Mr. Taxpayer, do not be alarmed, some
of your money may be wasted through
ignorance, but it is not dishonesty spent,
things are not so bad as represented, the
county has no debt outside of the Court
House Improvement. We know the 100
cent tax rate is almost a burden, but as
long as the tax basis remains as now, and
the county demands as much permanent
improvements ard our local. laws remain
as they are. see but little chance for re-
duction in the tax rate
Respectfully,
ALBERT l.. MCCAIN,
One of the County Commissioners of
Hartford county.

Mr.. John Cadwalader, IT.. of Philadel-

and pointed speech. He prefaced his re-
marks by saying that speakers were not
allowed in Philadelphia schools as in the
past the politicians always went to the
public schools just before the election to
make known their candidacy and derive
help. He dwelt long upon the good work
that was being done at Gunpo WIDER Neck
school,
The blackboards were artistically filled
with appropriate drawings, while ferns
and roses decorated the entire room
Each child acquitted himself beautifully
A noticeable feature was the voice of
Florence Rembold only seven years of
age who sang two selections. Her tone
was clear, sweet and voluminous.
Refreshments were served by Mrs. Cad
walader and each child also received a
present; Miss Helen Cadwalader took
snapshots ofvarious poses of the children.
The patrons as we'll as the children ex-
pressed themselves as having an enjoya-
Bile time.

ESTABLISH A PUBLIC HlTcHlNG PLACE.

Of recent years, residents of Bel Air
have been taking down hitching posts
from the front of their places. This has
been done for di Sers reasons, many times
because people have abused the privilege,
and more often on account of the flies
and filth that horses bring in the summer
time. While these nuisances are burden
some, yet we should remember that
drivers who come here for short while
must leave their horses somewhere. AS
a rule, our county residents are perfectly
willing to take them to the livery stable
if the animals need to be fed, but this
does not seem hardly fair when they will
only be in town a few minutes.
A public hitching ground has been sug-
gested, and we believe the scheme would
be feasible one. Select some lot near
the center of the town where horses
could be hitched, and if it was remote
from streets trequented by automobiles,
so much the better. The business people
OF the town, as we'll as the town commits
sioners and the county commissioners
should take up this project, as all have
equal interests. Perhaps shed to keep
off the storms would not be a bad idea,
providing the privilege was not abused.
Since the water has been cut off from
the drinking fountain in front of the
Court House, and the hitching posts are
being taken away so fast, it looks almost
as if the people from out in the country
are not welcome in the town. Such is
not the case, however, and we should
give some substantial manifestation Of
our hospitality to visitors.
