WASHINGTON. May 27-"George
Mcbride is today the greatest short
stop playing baseball. You can have
your Wagners, weavers and the pick
OF all Of them, but for mine I will
stick to the man we have" This is
the high valuation placed upon his
field leader by Manager Clark Griffith.
There are men playing the position
who can hit more frequently than Nc
Bride, there may be some who can
field as well, and there may be some
who are as wise in baseball, but in
the combination of all ! think there IL
not one who is in the same class with
George. Mcbride works for the team s
good every minute Of the day. When
/ first went to Washington / found
certain people who seemed anxious to
criticise the captain, but I was GER
tainly happy when I found that the
fans we're beginning to appreciate the
value Of the man whom / look upon
as ny right bower Usually when Nc
Bride hits the hit means something,
and person would have to be pretty
close to the club, attend the club
meetings and follow every move on
the field to know what a part the
shortstop has played in lifting Wash
ington from a joke to a real live fact

Sensational Turn at Clarendon
County Clerk Engle Refuses to Issue War rants. Publishes Statement. Illegal Ex- pendture Cited

County Clerk James EngIe has published a statement which is just bit sensational in it's state ment. He quotes Section 7318 of Kirby's Digest as follows;
 No contract shall be made by the County Judge or County Court for the building of bridges or repairing of same, or for the working of the roads until after the County Court has levied the taxes for the roads and bridges under this act for the ensuing year, and then not until an esti- mate shall be made of the amount of money that shall be raised by such levy and collection for roads. and bridges within twelve months of the date of levy, and all con- tracts made or to be made with In one year from date of the levy Of taxes shall be in amount not to exceed the estimated levy"
 Then Clerk Engle states that the lost Quorum Court in accord. ance with the vote of last Sep tember, voted a levy of 3 mills
The Brinkley argus., 1913-04-25

estimating that this would pro- duce a revenue of about $16, 5O0. % for each 1913 and 1914 or a total of about $33, 900. % for these two years. Following this Clerk Engle makes the astonishing statement, that ALREADY claims have been allowed and warrants drawn against this $33, 900. % levy of $35, 000.00 or $2,000.00 over drawn.
 And as a further basis for re- fusing to issue any more road warrants Clerk Engle quotes Sec. 1452 of Kirby's Digest, which he states prohibits any claim against the county being enlarged or in- creased on account of the de- preciated value of county war rants.
 This action on the part of County Clerk Engle in publish ing this statement will probably mean much, as it will force the matter for attention before the circuit court which convenes next week.

Chicago, Jan. Frank Chance prob
ably will sign up tomorrow as mana
ger of the New York American club.
After a five-hour conference today
with Frank Farrell, Owner of the New

rells arguments had been strong
enough to cause him to Waver from his
decision to retire from baseball for u
year.
Chances arrival was heralded today
by the announcement of his final de-
cisiOn'' to devote the next year to his
orange ranch in California. Mr.. Far
rell declared he would use every effort
to overcome this resolve. That lie vas
successful was proved by what vas
practically an admission by Chance
after the conference that he had
changed his mind.
While the terms offered Chance were
not revealed, it is rumored his con-
tract will call for a salary approach
ing 100000 for a term of years and an
