Conference Of
Commissioners.
Uniformity In Business Methods
and Thorough Housecleaning
Approved.
NEW ASSESSMENT FOR STATE.

Revision of real estate assess
ments in Maryland, to equalizer
taxation of property and to secure
better returns from taxation, was
the most important topic at Gov
ernor Crothers' conference with the
County Commissioners of the var
ious counties in Baltimore, on
Wednesday. Enthusiastic praise
was given the suggestion for a re-
assessment, and many were the
complaints of the injustice of the
present assessment. Evidence was
piled on evidence to show that
local revision works good results,
but that general revision would
be much more important and sue
cessful, was the UNANIMOUS opinion.
Uniformity in laws as far as
practicable, uniformity in book
keeping methods, uniformity in,
methods of road improvement after
deciding on the best, and general
housekeeping and righting of
things that, though wrong, were
permitted to drag along because
custom had put the seal of ap-
proval on them, were urged by the
Governor in addition to the reass-
ment idea.
Governor Crothers suggested
that the meeting organize as a per-
manent body in order that uniform
ly improved methods of every kind
and proper economies could be in
telligently discussed and put into
effect, and a committee of seven was
appointed to study out in detail the
plans for organization, and the ap-
pointment of committees to deal
with the various subjects brought
to the front and report back all
these plans and details for ratifi-
cation by all the commissioners at
a meeting to be called after the fall
election and prior to the meeting of
the General Assembly in Jan. 1910.
The Governor was empowered to
select the committee, and he named
the following D. L. Sloan, Allie
gany; VIM. M. Cooper, Wicomico;
James s. Smith, Anne Arundel;
Chas. Mattfeldt, Baltimore county;
Alexander Hagner, Washington;
Joseph B. Harrington, Talbot, and
Charles M. Williams, Montgomery.
Much enthusiasm was displayed
at the meeting, which was largely
attended, more than 100 County
Commissioners responding to the
Governors invitation for a con-
ference.

The Conowlngo Bridge.

The travelling public and the resi-
dents of North Hartford have great
ly missed the bridge at Conowingo
which was destroyed by fire in
June, 1907.
The rebuilding of the bridge has
been widely discussed and the
great necessity of SO doing has been
patent, and that the contract for
rebuilding same has been finally
and definitely awarded will be good
news to the travelling public, and
the residents of Hartford specially.
g. G. Caldwell, president of the
Bridge Company, has recently sign
ed contract with the Virginia
Iron Bridge Co., of Roanoke. Va, !,
of which Edmund Michael, former
ly of Perryman, Hartford county, is
president, to rebuild the bridge,
the same to be completed by August
10Th, at a cost approximating
$40, 900.
Of the old bridge there are two
steel and two wooden spans stand.
ing, which will be used for the new
bridge.
1t is proposed to raise the present
piers of the bridge about two feet
higher, on level with that portion
of the bridge now standing, which
will give about three per cent
grade between the shores.
The amount of insurance received
on the old bridge was about $2O, 600,
and it is proposed to issue $40, 900
worth of six per cent bonds to cover
the cost OF the new structure.
The old bridge was built many
years ago and its stock was capital
lied at $40, 900, and from 1885 to
1900 paid regular dividend of 81
a share or 5 per cent on the invest.
ment, and accumulated surplus of
$25, 900 which was divided among
the stockholders that year, show
ing the results to have been profit.
able to its owners.
An expert engineer has carefully
examined the piers of the bridge,
and although built years ago when
modern appliances for bridge build.
ing were unknown and untried,
yet with the characteristic methods
of honest work that prevailed in
the long ago days of our forefathers,
estimates that it would cost $85, 900
to replace them as they are today,
which with the cost of the new
bridge, would make the bridge
property worth at least $125, 900,
to say nothing of its franchise
value. .-Havre de Grace Repub

All Road Routes Selected.

The State Roads Commission on
Tuesday of last week completed the
task of selecting the routes of the
State roads which are to be built
with the $4,000, 900 loan. ad ssai"
Frederick, Montgomery and ,Har-
ford, the only counties which the
commission had not completed,
were taken up and the definite
routes settled. s..
The act of 1908 requires these
selections to be made before the
1st day of May, and now the en-
tire system has been selected.
In Hartford county the final
adoption is from Belair by way of
Kalmia to Conowingo, provided
the county will build bridge
suitable, in the judgement of the
commission, across Deer Creek, as
far as the funds will permit.
The question of material promises
to be the most important matter TO
be taken up at the next meeting,
and the question of the cost of the
roads per mile is also a.matter
upon which the commission is now
working and which is apt to cause
trouble. Some of the members of
the commission believe a good road
can be built for $4,000 a mile,
while others think that good, stable
roads cannot be built for anything
like that price. The question of
durability and of cost will engage
the attention of the commission at
the next few meetings.

Ousted Pastor Appeals

Notice of an appeal from the
finding of select number of 15
ministers of the Wilmington Meth,
odist Conference, in ousting him
from membership, has been filed
with Bishop David Fl. Moore by
Rev. w. Lightbonrne, who was
pastor of Wesley NJ. 3. Church, in
Dover, Del, up to the Conference
session.
Bishop Moore presided over the
Conference and appointed the ID
ministers, who decided that a cers
tifcate .purporting to be from the
Congregational Church, and on
which it was contended DIR. Light
bourne had obtained membership
in the Wilmington Conference, was
fictitious and fraudulent. DIR.
Lightbourne at a trial before Con-
ference one year ago, disclaimed all
knowledge of any fraud, and was
acquitted of any knowledge of the
document.
DIR. Lihghbourn's appeal is to be
taken to the General Conference,
which will meet three years hence.
Until that time the action of the
Wilmington Conference in. ousting
him from membership will stand,
unless the Conference should re-
store him in some manner at Sails
bury next year.
