\ $4,000 JU\kET.

WHICH same is simply another il
lustration of how little regard the
brazen politicians have for the peo-
pies interests and the taxpayers bur-
dens. By Act of the last Legislature,
$4,000 Of the peoples money was APP
propriated from the public treasury
10 send % Maryland citizens, at the
States expense, to the Panama Expo
sition at San Francisco, in 1915. The
thing was done, of course, IN the name
of Maryland's commercial and indus
trial advertisement. But the real
force back of the Bill-the force which
hilariously notified us that all opposi-
Democratic political machine. That
machine, headed by Senator John Wal
ter Smith, was in full control of the
last Legislature and when it decided
to present itself with a $4,000 excur-
sion to San Francisco at the peoples
expense, you could bet your last red
cent that the same would he forth
coming. Senator Benson introduced
the Bill and Senators Price, Beck,
Hammond, etc, supported it. Note:
Senators Price, Benson. Beck. Ham
mond, etc, are designated as amongst
the 70 Maryland citizens who Will
spend $4,000 of Maryland peoples
money in San Francisco next year to
advertise MarYland's commercial and
industrial interests. OF course, real
representative of those commercial
and industrial interests is added here
and there through the list of the COM
mission, as some slight concession to
the decent appearance of things. But
the representatives of the political
machine which put the deal over are
likewise going to partake of its lux
urious benefactions Such gentlemen
do not let sucn chances set by them.
A $4,000 trip to San Francisco at the
taxpayers expense looked pretty
good to them, and they COPIED it.
If you don't like it, let us lust ask
YOU what you are going to do about it
These political managers don't care
whether you like ic or not. They don't
mind your prumbling al having to put
up $4,000 for their iunket TO San
Francisco. They will have the iunket
all right, and when the next voting
time comes round you will send them
Or men just like them, back to Annap-
oils to hand you other and further
deals of similar pleasantness.

A VERY IMPORTANT APPOINT
MENT.

UNDER the new law creating a
State Tax Board, provisions are made
for the appointment of resident tax
equalizer in each county. The duties
of this officer will be to assist the
County Commissioners to equalize the
taxation in each county, hunt out new
property to place on the books, find
concealed taxable property and keep a
correct record of investments which
are taxable and which are not now on
the books. The office is d most i'm
portant one if the appointment is to
be made and the County Commission
ers should be most careful in their
recommendation of the list to the
State Tax Board
The appointment is made from a
list of five names to be submitted by
the County Commissioners to the
State Tax Board. The Board can Sc
lect either of the five names sent in
and the important matter for the
County Commissioners is to see that
only the names of perfectly capable
men are submitted to the State Board.
ms appointment can be made a
perfectly useless one II the wrong
man is appointed. AS the taxpayers
will have to provide a sa:ary OF al
least one thousand dollars a year for
this officer it is worth while to give
the matter some very serious thought
before the list is made up. If there is
an Office in the county where none but
the most capable man should be in
stalled it is in this office The APP
pointee should be a man of capacity
and one who will be totally blind to
personal favorites or political pull. As
this office will take from the County
Commissioners cartain responsible
ties in the way of seeing that new pro-
perty is listed every year, none but a
diligent and trustworthy man should
be considered for the place.
