ness of the nomination of our candidate,
and that is the duty and justice of the
Democratic party of the State to do jus

and most influential counties in the
State, and casts more Democratic votes
at every election than any county in the
State except one and vet it never gets
any consideration at the State Conven-
ton.
They nominate candidates from coun-
ties where the Democratic vote is SO
small as it makes little or no difference

makes some other blunder that makes
the election very close, or the party goes
down to defeat None Of the State can

The Democrats of Frederick county
are becoming discouraged and tired Of

county is treated. and we make the de-.

State to give u the consideration to
which We are clearly entitled by nomi-

Home Rule Victorious.

Home rule for Ireland now seems
10 be an established fact. 1t has passed
the House of Commons BY majority of
over one hundred. The House of Lords
will. it is reported, reject II, but accord
ing to the new rules this only means two
years delay. Then if tine measure
passes the House of Commons again it
becomes law notwithstanding the pro-
test Of the Lords. As the issue has been
submitted to the people ii would seem
quite certain that this great reform, to
which Gladstone gave so many of the
very best vars of his HE, is at last.
nearing realization 1t is a long DELAYED
act OF justice. to the Irish people and it
will be generally approved throughout

The Road Situation Discussed

In a communication from William ].
Grove, of the NJ !. Grove Lime Com
pany, from Hot Springs, Ark, he sets
forth the loss sustained by Frederick
county in not taking the advantage of the
Shoemaker Law, etc. His letter follows;
Hot Springs, Ark, Feb. II, 1913.
MesVs Editors:
Dear Sir: 1t is not my desire to be-
come tlresome, or to quarrel with our
County Commissioners on the road ques-
ton, but as see it. when our county is
losing so much to the real progressive
counties of the State, some one must
take the initiative, and show the poor
business policy of our county in its fail
ure 10 take advantage OF our share of the
State road allotment and | hope by
bringing the real conditions to the atten-
/ ton of the taxpayers, they will feel as
do, that change in our policy must be
made. The following information which
is taken from the State records, and is
open for inspection to any citizen, should
be very interesting to all of us. and give
detailed statement, showing what Fred
erick county is losing annually.
First: The State under the Shoemaker
law, has appropriated $3oo.o annually
for road purposes. OF this amount Fred
erick county is entitled to SIS. 33S %. The
State collects from the taxpayers of this
county each year about this sum, and it is
a total loss 10 Frederick county, because
it does not avail itself of this law and the
money is reapportioned among the more
progressive counties OF the State.
Second: Frederick county also loses
annually in good roads S22, 1905. 70. made
up as follows:

Property owners pay 10 per

Third: Frederick county also loses d.
rectly its share of the Motor Vehicle fund
for maintenance, every owner OF an auto
mobl 8, m tortruCk, or motorcycle in our
county must pay to this fund, and last
year there were turned over TO the State
Treasurer S62, 1876 of which Baltimore
city receives 20 per cent. SI2, SAILS; for
State roads, S3I,3o4.24; State aid roads.

county did not receive one cent. The

In my opinion such condition should
not exist, as there is no question but the
people in the county are anxious to avail
themselves of the State Aid Road Law.
they having carried it through our circuN
court several times, and even to the
Court Of Appeals at Annapolis Do you
think it good business to be taxed to i'm.
prove the roads in other counties of the
State? Besides, if this money was spent
on our roads it would be put in circula-
ton among our people, and where good
roads are built, the price of land advan-
ces. and Improvements are sure to follow.
This means an increase in our tax basis,
which will bring revenue.
Let Us stop and consider the amount
the county has lost since the Shoemaker
iaw become effective. and the amount
we will continue to lose. This seems to
me to be of such importance to our coun-
~ that some immediate action should be
taken that we get our share of the State
a d road allotment.
