Auditors Preface.

To the Honorable Council of the City
Of Marion. Ohio.
Gentlemen:
In accordance with the provisions
of Sections 1856 and 1857 of the Re-
yised Statutes of Ohio and Section SO
of the Municipal Code, herewith
submit my report OF the receipts and
disbursements of the various funds OF
the city Of Marion for the fiscal year
closing December 81. 1910. This re-
port also shows the balances in these
various funds at the close of the
year, the amount of the city's indebt-
edness and numerous other items OF
interest to the taxpayer.
In the beginning, wish TO call your
attention TO the remarkable manner
i'm which the city recovered from the
loss Of the $4,000 annual revenue
which formerly came from the liquor
traffic. some time ago abolished by a
vote of the people l might state that
coincideht with the cutting off of this
source of income, the new law re-
quiring the registration of voters in

ing out Of the saloons there was an

city Auditor Harry S. Elliott has
completed his annual report to this
city council which will be presented
to the city fathers at meeting to
be held at an early date. The report
is quite interesting showing the finan-
cial condition of the city at the be-
ginning of 1911, together with what
has been done in the various depart
meuts during the year just past.
In his prelude. Mr.. Elliott makes
some very interesting statements
concerning the effect of the policy
which was inaugurated when a re-
trcnchmcnt was found to be neces-
sary. The entire report should be
carefully read by every citizen, since

SNOW HILL, MD, NOV. II.


On the face of the returns Mr..
Phillips Lee Goldsborough has
been elected Governor by a
fiuke. Instead of his majority
being way up in the thousands
like the Lowndes victory, he
gets in by less than three thous-
and, while Messrs. Harrington
and Poe, Democrats,are elected
by greater majorities. Had it
not been for an unfortunate
mistake of about four thousand
voters in Baltimore, Mr.. Cor
man would have been elected.
They voted for him, but they
made the mistake of voting for
too many members of the
Orphans Court, and, as a con.
sequence these four thousand
or more votes were thrown out.
The Democrats have won
control of both Branches of the
Legislature, the Comptroller
and the Attorney General.
Democrats we'll remember the
disastrous defeat of the party
when Lowndes was elected and
the Legislature went into the
hands of the Republicans. and
they had everything. Four
years later it was Governor
John Walter Smith who won a
great victory over them and the
State was redeemed. Things
are different now. We have
everything but the Governor
and the most important APP
pointments in the State are
made by the Board of Public
Works. which will be controlled
by the Democrats.
Mr.. Goldsborough says of the
result: Il realize, and the close
ness of the vote but serves to
emphasize it, that naturally
Maryland is a Democratic State"
and he gives the credit for his
election to the Independent
Democratic voters. Yes, Mary
land is a Democratic State. But
Goldsborough is unjust. The
fact is, his election was won by
the colored voters, and it is
wrong to deprive them of the
credit.
Maryland Democrats will now
unite and sweep the State again
in 1912 ,and when it comes time
TO elect another Governor he
will be Democrat.
