Fairfax Is Given His title.

The Committee on Privileges of the
House of Lords on Tuesday declared the
tight of Albert Kirby Fairfax, who is a
native of Maryland and who las been
described as the only American bearing
~ English title, to the rank and title OF
Lord Fairfax of Cameron in the Scot
ish peerage.
TIE committee heard evidence on this
matter for two hours.
J A. Barrett, Lord Fairfax's attor-
ey, presented the Fairfax family Bible
md much documentary evidence to
prove his Clients descent. The Attor-
aey General for the Government and
The Lord Advocate Of Scotland declared
themselves as satisfied regarding the
validity of the claim, and Lord Alver
stone, Lord Chief Justice, pronounced
the decision OF the committee. This de-
cision does not give Lord Fairfax a seat
in the House of Lords. Only limited
number Of Scottish peers, elected by the
lords, sit in the House.

A Suggestion TO the Road Com.
mission.

It is understood that the State Road
Commission is about to take final action
in tbc selection of the route for the main
road through Anne Arundel county. In
this decision the people of Baltimore
city have SPECIAL and very great in
tterest 1t is said that the commission
WI. decide between the direct route
from Baltimore TO Annapolis aud cir
cutous route which would run through
| Westport, passing a considerable distan-
&C to the west of Annapolis, and than
on down to the northern boundary of
| Calvert county near Owings Station, on
! the Chesapeake Beach railroad. From
! this road branch road to Annapolis
| has been suggested From Owings Sta
| ton a road is to continue on the divide
of Calvert county between the Chesa-
peake and the Patuxent, to the mouth
Of the PatuXent, or near it. AS far as
the location of the road through Calvert
county was concerned, there was, we
believe, no difference Of opinion. If it
was the object Of the road through Anne
Arundel TO bring travel from Calvert
county to Baltimore the route passing
west of Annapolis would perhaps be the
best. But there is no such travel. Near
" all the travel from the southern end
Of Anne Arundel, except that which is
merely local, goes to Annapolis, the
county seat, and not to Baltimore. The
great volume Of wagon traffic from
Anne Arundel county to Baltimore is
across Long Bridge, which is maintain
ed by the city, and comes from the rich
trucking region lying along the direct
road from Baltimore to Annapolis.
The State is constructing a fine road
from Baltimore to Washin gton, and one
from Baltimore to the State capital
would be of great advantage to the two
cities, as we'll as to the fine productive
trucking country that lies between
them. With good road from this city
to Annapolis there would, in addition
to the business traffic. be great num-
Der of people from all over the country
passing over it to see the Naval
Academy and t he ancient city of Anna
polls, which is one of the most inter-
esting of the historic towns of America.
The Road Commission would do well
to give the people of southern Anne
Arundel a direct road to their county
seat and a direct road between Balti-
more and Annapolis. Baltimore con-
tributes enough 20 the road fund to en-
title it to have consideration in this
matter. The Road Commission is COM
posed of eminently sensible men, and
we have every confidence that the right
conclusion in this matter will be reach
