Democrats Hold Big Meet
ing at Newark
Messrs. Editors:-

Messrs Editors:-
An enthusiastic meeting was held here
last Wednesday night. The Hall was
packed with crowd eager to hear the
speakers Of the evening, who were.
Messrs. Orlando Harrison. William d.
Corddry. and j. Edward White, every
one of whom made an impressive
speech. in which they showed how the
finances of the county were managed.
and the necessity of electing the whole
Democratic ticket, from top to bottom.
They showed how most of our taxes are
spent on roads and schools, citing fig
ures 10 show that ninety-two cents out
of every one dollar and thrty-one cents
(the present tax rate,l is spent on
schools and roads, and the remainder
used in defraying county expenses fixed
by law. such as the per diem of jurors,
witnesses. attorney fees. court officers.
constables, etc. They showed that the
only way in which taxes could be reduc-
ed was to reduce the efficiency Of our
schools. and allow our roads 70 get back
into delapidated condition, condition
that nobody in this district wants to
see, we feel sure. for we are proud of
our schools, and deeply appreciate the
Improvement in our roads. As about
so per cent of all the taxes paid in this
county are paid by Democrats. we are
determined to retain our present County
Commissioners in office to handle these
funds. instead of turning them over 70
the Republican party to spend. which
party contributes less than 20 per cent.
of them. We feel sure of giving the
whole ticket the biggest vote given 10
any Democratic ticket for several years.

In Favor Of Mr.. Price.

The proceedings instituted by John II.
Truitt against j. Samuel Price, Flee
ton Supervisor. to GUST him from that
office. because of the fact that he had
held the office of Town Councilman of
Snow Hill. was dismissed on Monday
last by Judges Stanford and Jones.
The decision of the Court was based
upon the ground that the office of Town
Councilman was not such an Office as is
contemplated under the Constitution of
MARYLAND, which provides that no per-
son can hold two offices of profit and
trust under the Constitution of the
State.
This decision of the Court leaves Mr..
Price in possession of the office of Su-
pervisor. and at the same time decides
question never before raised in the
Courts Of this State.
