Wants Relief From High Taxes
(Communicted.)

Eastport, Md. Aug. %. II,
Editor of The Capital:
Please give space in your valuable pa
per for the following:
And il came to pass in those days
that in the Land of the Undecided
there were groanings and murmurings
and when the cause thereof was found
it was by one crying aloud, Behold
the mountain has labored and brought
forth a mouse"
Moral-For years past, after each
ell ection for members of the General
Assembly and County Commissioners
of this county, there has been louC
complaints from every street corner
and in public meetings by those whc
have to bear the burden of high taxes
without any equivalent land just here
| will say renters of property are as
much taxpayers if not more so than
owners, for higher the taxes, higher
go the rents.)
Time after time have the people al

might truthfully say Imperialism, by
being free men, men capable of think
ing and choosing for themselves
Now the opportunity is given them tC
do so and the question is will they dc
so? Will they send men to the Legis
lature who will not be dictated to by
bosses, just solely to crafty their de
sire for place and power and juicy
plums.
Now, to be brief, if the people OF
this county want relief. then it mus
be by men in the Legislature who will
modify the present road and jury
system, who will oppose and defeat
law looking to the creating of useles:
offices, solely for the establishment Of
and maintaining Imperialism. The
people of this county, the intelligen
voters, should know and do know
without being reminded, that they are
the proper ones to choose representa-
tives. If they do not and bad legisla
ton follows, it will be too late t.
howl and groan. For several years
past they have labored like the gigan
tic mountain. Will it be said it wa!
only to bring forth a mouse? No re
lief, higher taxes, strengthened i'm
perialism. Think it out for your
selves.

A. z. GORMAN.

Mr. Combs has responded to Mr..
Germans letter as follows:
Annapolis, Md, Aug. 25, II.
Hon. A. F. German.
My Dear Sir In reply to the above
will state that no doubt this is a sam
| pie of thousands of letters that have
been sent broadcast throughout the
State. As to his position taken on
the several creditable propositions
mentioned, no doubt it is true. But
we wish to call Mr.. Germans atten-
tion to the array Of figures on the
first page of the Baltimore Sun of
August 81, as regards the running of
the legislative session of 1910. That
expense account is enough to damn
the executive ability of any man or
any set of men. Many of these items,
l can personally prove to be true, and
there is no possible reason to doubt
that the list is a correct copy of the
expense books.
When politics, and the men who
compose the different parties, become
so corrupt that they put school boys
(for their fathers sake) on the paw
roll, and allow them to draw as much
as SAYS for a single session without
any service whatever, as he was going
to st. Johns College at the time)
also several other cases that | know
of personally, that have drawn that
amount and more, for virtually no
service rendered whatever, it seems
to me it is about time the people of
the State who are mot in politics"
began to take notice and get busy.
When one thinks of the honest workers
of the State who are working their
very hearts out in the broiling sun, to
gather a little together to help pay
their bills, it is enough to make him
desperate, and hundreds and thous-
ands of dollars were gathered in by
the State House barnacles, and party
workers during the session of 1910.
Mr.. German, who, as President Of
the Senate, must have known this, if
not, he is incompetent. When you
protest at this way of doing business,
the people here at the Capital will
laugh at you and say combs, you are
tenderoot; they always do that +"
One young man whose name is on the
list, pointed it out to me and said:
"How is that for a hold-out?' l re-
marked: Say, Blank. what did you
door all this money!" Nothing,
Combs, and really felt guilty, but
the rest of the bunch took it, and so
did / on the regular stated pay days. "
l would we had in the State of
Maryland a Woodrow Wilson or a
Booker T. Washington. l would vote
for either one of them first. 1t does
not seem possible to me that the peo-
pie of the State generally are aware
of this condition of things during the
legislative session. With thirty-six
"laborers" on the list who drew from
$50 to S135 each, mostly S135, and
the keeper" of the different closets,
cloakrooms, etc, with their ''assis-
tants, who drew as high as s49S
each, in some instances, is well caIcu-
lated to make that easy-going farmer
out in the field dig a little deeper

WOMAN MAYOR
STILL OPPOSED
NO QUORUM AT TIME AND PLACE
OF REGULAR MEETING-SELL-
ING LIQUOR.

Hunnewen. Kan, June again to-
night a quorum of the city council
failed to meet with Mrs Ella Wilson,
the woman mayor.
Two aldermen, F. G. Landers, a
hardware merchant, and w. l.. Lewis,
the station agent. were in attendance.
But it requires three to make Il
quorum of the aldermanic body of
five members, who after waiting pa.
tiently until nearly ten o'clock for a
third alderman to appear, the assem-
bled members of the city official fam
lily went home without transacting any
business.
Before the mayor had departed
Alderman Lewis rendered his resigna-
ton, but it was not accepted because
Mrs. Wilson could not act upon the
case at an unofficial meeting.
The Mayor Angry.
Mrs. Wilson was OBVIOUSLY angered
over the failure of the aldermen to
meet with her. Heretofore there has
been some misunderstanding regard
ing the official meeting place but to-
night every alderman knew the mayor
would be at Richardson's hall ready
to transact the business of the city.
When the alderman did not appear all
doubt that they objected TO meeting
with her was removed from her mind.
You see for yourselves" she said
to crowd that had gathered near the
hall. that they do not want to and
dc not intend to meet with me. But
I'll stand my ground. I'll declare the
offices of the councilmen vacant and
! am sure the state authorities will
permit me to appoint men who will
serve with me-
Mayor Wilson came to the hall to-
night with a list of appointments
ready TO the council to confirm. She
had selected Professor Clark. super
intendent of the Hunnewel schools,
for city treasurer. Instead of a wo-
man being her choice for marshal.
Robert Boyer was slated to obtain the
Mrs Alice Hilton, the
right hand woman in the po-
liucal fight, was to be named city
clerk. Mrs. Hilton was present.
Ever since Mayor Wilson was elect
ell last April the town has been with
out a marshal. It is asserted that
the lawlesS element is doing as it
pleases. all kinds of liquors being
freely sold. It is Mayor Wilson's de-
sire to appoint a marshal as soon as
possible so that an attempt can he
made to stop liquor selling
According to the city ordinance, |
this is the second regular council /.
meeting night that the aldermen have /.
failed to meet with the mayor.

VAULT OF BANK
YIELDS ONE DIME
BOOKS SHOWED $4,000 CASH ON
HAND - CASHIER COMMITTED
SUICIDE IN FLORIDA.

The vault OF the little bank of Tus
la, okla. Of which l.. r. TeUbener
was cashier, was opened at the fac
tory in New York City yesterday
and found to contain only ten cents
instead Of the twenty five thousand
dollars which Teubener's books snow
ed as cash on hand.
Thus for the first time the Ger
tainty and extent of the dead cash
ier's defalcations were established
No business crime of recent years IN
eastern Oklahoma caused the sensa
ton as did Teubener's disappearance
and remarkable suicide. The dramat
ic climax OF yesterday is no more
startling or surprising than the
events that have gone before.
Lived in Muskoeee.
4 few years ago Teubener lived in
Muskogee where he was trusted
employe Of the Dawes commission
and a prominent Elk. He moved to
Tusla, four miles from Atoka, to
become cashier OF the bank Of that
pace The bank was owned and op-
Grated by the Southern Surety com
pany of this city.
On the eighteenth day of las
March, Teubener disappeared. leav-
ling a wife and two small children
in Tuska 1t was learned that he
spent the day following his disappear.
ance in MuSkogee. He was drinking
heavily and his friends could not un-
derstand it as he had never been
known TO drink TO excess.
Cut His Throat.
TO r. W Sears of Sears. Roebuck
of Chicago he said a short time be-
fore he was found dying that he
was being pursued by men with hand
cuffs and that he would jump from
the train if he did not fear that
they would shoot him. 1t is believed
that he had lost his reason through
worry over his shortages. A bad tip
on cotton is believed to have caused
his downfall.
So trusted was Teubener ,nat he
was the only living person who knew
the combination of the vault. 1t was
therefore necessary to send it back
to New Work to be opened. And yes
terday it was discovered that the
vault contained but ten cents, all
the cash i'm The world that the bank
had Phoenix.
