HOLDS UP SALARIES

Unless directed by the courts 10 do so.
baltimore city viii not in the future pay
any part Of the salaries of the members Of
the Public Service Commission. Nor viii it
pay any part Of the salaries Of the State
Tax Board or the State Industrial Commits
sion.
CITY Solicitor Field advised Mayor Pres
ton and City Comptroller Thrift that the
city is under no legal obligation 10 pay
any part Of the salaries Of the members Of
the Public Service Commission or of the
State Tax Board. At the same time he
held that the Mayor has no authority to
swear in the members Of the State Tax
Board as municipal officials.
The effect Of. the ruling is that unless
the courts decide otherwise neither the
members Of the State Tax Board nor the
Public Service Commission will receive
more than $1,000 a year, the amount pre-
scribed by the Constitution Of the State
officers whose pay is not fixed otherwise
by the Constitution.
The city has been paying two Of the
commissioners $1,000 a year each and
Chairman Laird SO 1000 since the passage
OF the act creating the commission. the
annual pay roll from the city aesresatine
$500. This included part Of the pay Of
the employees Of the board.
Thequestion upon which Mr.. Field passed
was raised by the Mayor. when he de-
clined last week to administer the oath to
the members Of the State Tax Board as
city officials.
The City Solicitor holds that under Sec
ton rs Of the charter the Mayor has au-
thority to administer the oath Of Office
only to city officials. that the members Of
the Public Service Commission and Of the
State Tax Commission could not be city
officials because Article 35 Of the Declara-
ton Of Rights forbids any person to hold
two Offices Of profit, at the same time. I'M
der the laws Of this State. and the Court
Of Appeals decided. in the case Of Truitt VS..
Price. in the Daily Record Of January %.
1914. that. under this Article IS, a person
cannot hold State Office and a municipal
Office at the same time. Therefore. the
members Of both of these commissions
must be regarded as State officers only.
and Section Of Article IS Of the Consti-
tuition forbids them to receive more than
$4,000 per annum for the performance Of
their duties.
Interest is directed to the attitude Of the
Pdblic Service Commission because il may
be called first to have the decision Of the
City Solicitor reviewed by the courts. Its
next payroll viii become due before that
OF the Tax Commission, which will not be-
gin its work until June and. therefore.
will have no monthly accounts to present
the city until July I.
While the acts creating the two commits
sions state specifically that their members
shall be paid part of their salaries by the
city. las employees Of the Mayor and City
Council" Attorney General Poe is inclined
to think that this does not create separ-
ate Office but that the provision for part
payment by the city can be imposed by
the Legislature in view Of benefits sup
posed TO be received by the city.

The Road Law And The Two New
Commissioners.
From the Frederick Citizen.

From the Frederick Citizen.
Governor Godsborough last week ap-
pointed as the two new Road Commits
sioners Frank Smith. Of St. Mary's county.
and Thomas Panen. Of Calvert county.
These two men. in connection with the old
commissioners have control Of six millions
Of dollars Of the taxpayers money levied
by the last Legislature upon the people
This money is to be spent upon the new
State roads system. As we have hereto
fore said. the road system is failure. and
its execution so far has made il more Of
failure by the weakness Of its execution.
The road system. bad as il was. could have
been made Of some benefit to the State IL
IL had been well and wisely executed. The
cardinal mistake from the beginning has
been the appointment Of incompetent and
inefficient commissioners.
This resulted in the adoption OF scheme
OF public roads that was so wildly expen-
sive and extravagant that II would have
bankrupted the State to have carried il
into effect and il resulted In building a
system Of roads for automobiles, and for
them alone. and the great farming and
business interests have not been benefited
one iota. In this county what has been
done has been a distinct damage. The
farmers and the great business interests
have to keep the same horse power to
market crops and goods as they did before
The trouble now is that II seems from
the new appointments that the Governor
has handed the Road Commission over to
politics entirely. The two new Road Com.
missioners are lifelong politicians. and have
never known anything else. and have been
in politics from the time Of their birth up
until now. and have been chronic office
holders and officeseekers They were both
born. II is said. with their faces turned
towards Annapolis. and gazing upon the
State House. and their gaze has never
been diverted.
II has been said that the road system
was TO be kept strictly out Of politics and
IL has been up to the present time. But
by the recent appointments the road sys-
TEN has taken headlong plunge into the
vortex Of politics. II Is very much to be
regretted. for the six millions OF dollars
might have been 30 used and applied so
as to do the people and the taxpayers
some good. instead Of beiDe sDent for the

CARLYLE A TRUE PEsslMIsT
Any Movement Of the World Toward
Better Things Was to Him a
.4 Step Backward. ri

Thomas Carlyle's friendship with
Ralph Waldo Emerson is matter Of
history, but Charles Eliot Norton tells
in his newly published letters that
Carlyle marveled at the optimism of
the American philosopher. Writing in
1873. Norton says: CAS- we were sitting
together just after my coming in this
afternoon. Carlyle spoke Of Emerson.
There's great contrast between
Emerson and myself. He seems vera
content with life, and takes much sat
isfaction in the world, especially in
your country. One would suppose to
hear him that ye had no troubles
there. and no share in the darkness
that hangs over these old lands. It's
q vera strikin' and curious spectacle
to behold man so confidently cheer
full as Emerson in these days.
"'Well, it may be as you say. I'm
not such vera bloody-minded old
villain after all (here q cordial laugh,
not quite so horrid an ogre as some
good people imagine. But the ward
Is vera black to me; and see nothin'

In his address, Mr.. Lawler paid a
glowing tribute to the memory of
Emmett.
I'VE have stepped aside," said he,
ito recall and honor the memory of
felon. We have gathered together
to pay tribute to a man whose grave
is unknown, but whose inspiring mem
ory is cherished in the hearts of a
grateful people; we are here to offer
homage to a martyr whose monument
has not been reared, but who will
continue through time, the idol of a
nation.
"Emmet was in every respect an
ideal hero. He was young, handsome
and talented; he was born to wealth
and family and he was highly edu-
Gated. Yet he sacrificed everything,
even his very life, for his country"
Mr.. LAWYER concluded his address
with references to the long strife for
home rule in Ireland.
In her address, Miss Hammill de.
clared that much is being accomplish.
ed by intoxicating knowledge Of Irish
history. An organized movement to
this end is already under way, she
said. The speaker also devoted q Dor
ton of her address to the part that
