Flies are Increasing Very Rapidly

The recent showers must have been a
great aid to the fly Crop" and those
children who are now engaged in swat
ting the pests to get the reward of FIVE
cents pint, and to compete for the
prizes offered, have now good opportun-
ties. In addition to the money which is
to be awarded for the largest number of
flies killed during the two months, the
committee in charge of the campaign
has offered two special prizes, one for
the boy and one tor the girl, who pre-
sents the first pint OF dead flies to the
home of the chairman, No. 1o3 West
Second street, this city. These prizes
are still to be won, and the children
should take time by the forelock, now
that the pests are increasing in numbers
SO rapidly.

BOARD OF ALDERMEN.

After a year of most rigid economy, to
which the members of the Board of Al
dermen pledged themselves upon taking
oath of office more than a year ago. it
was announced Wednesday night at a
special meeting of the board to consider
the annual statement of City Register B.
T. Nicodemus that the debt of the city
has been reduced in one year about $I6,
600. Alderman Cutler declared that
when he entered the board he had pro-
posed that the debt would be cut at least
$4,000.
The board paid in notes and certifi-
Gates of indebtedness $33, I64. 2S and
placed temporary loan OF $4,000 and
sent 81. 32I to the sinking fund. Last
year the liabilities exceed the assets by
$I34, o35. 60. This year the liabilities have
been reduced by SCI, 3e2oS.
In spite of the protests of Alderman
Phebus who declared that the Board was
going about it in the wrong way" the
Board of Aldermen took steps to collect
the 81, 100 due the city in the term OF
Register M. A. McCaffrey, for taxes and
street paving, by instructing the Commit
tee on Claims and the City Attorney Ed.
ward Smith, to confer with Mr.. McCaf-
frey, and to make collections, If 1t was
necessary to sell the property at public
auction.
When this motion was put before the
Aldermen for action Alderman Phebus
protested and urged more time and 9TH
er methods. He seemed to believe that
the city would get into complications If
the collection was forced. "lt you don't
collect these taxes. I'll never pay anoth-
er cent in taxes to the city, declared
Alderman Cutler, as he emphasized his
remark by banging on the council table
There were mods of approval from the
members of the board, but still Alder
man Phebus was not convinced.
Not only does the action OF the Board
mean that the street assessments and the
back taxes from the term OF office OF
CITY Register Mccartney will be collected
by the forced sale of the property, If nee
essary, but all other taxes and street as
sessments overdue and due. Alderman
Cutler saws the city wants the money and
there is no reason why the city shouldn't
get it.
The remaining untitled plank in the
platform of Mayor Lewis H. Fraley, that
of providing a police call system for
Frederick, was brought up by the Mayor,
when he reported that first rate system
could be installed in Frederick for less
than a thousand dollars. The matter
was held over until the Board has exam
med some plans and specifications from
Lewis Woodward, who is the author OF
the system. The members of the Board
asked that the plans be submitted.
