TENS Of eXpenditure /.

All of the above items are fixed by
law excepting the last. You will no
tice that in 1901 the county had no
State Aid Roads nor did they own any
road equipment whatsoever. Today
we own properties valued at over $20,-
600 in lands, buildings and equipments
We have laid State Aid Roads in the
past year amounting to S4G,55925 Zone

stop to think of how often they came
before the Board and the statements
they made, makes me think of the
words of Abraham Lincoln you can
fool all of the people some of the time
but you can't fool all OF the people all
the time"
A few things we have accomplished
in the past two veara
First-Compelling the State Roads
Commission to build the College Creek
bridge.
Second Completion of the South
River road from Annapolis to Calvert
county.
Third-Building of Bay Ridge ana
Arundel-on-the-Bay road.
Fourth-Loan of SIPS 600 through
Bernhard Scholl & Co. of New York.
for one year, saving to the county Of
$4.562.5O.
Elimination of Stone House
Cove bridge. Fifth district. saving OF
$500 yearly.
Sixth-Installing of heating plant
| plumbing, etc, in the County Home.
Many other items could be mentioned
The question was asked why is the,
county compelled to borrow money!
Simply because our people cannot pay
their taxes promptly, especially the
farmers, who have had three hard years.
At the close of our fiscal year, June 80,
1915, there was over $4,000 owing IN
taxes.
A very vital question confronts US at
present, and that is the annexation OF
Brooklyn, Curtis Bay Fairfield and the
surrounding country by Baltimore city
1t is simply folly to consider this ques-
tion. excepting in the light of opposi-
ton. Every man, woman and child
should work against the annexation OF
this, the wealthiest part of our county
to Baltimore city,if they have the coun-
| tvs interest at heart. Since my last
statement relative to this matter the
Commissioners have received from the
State Tax Commission returns from
this district that will net the county
about $4,000, and next year it will be
between $4,000 and SAC. 900. As to the
assertion charging this district with
Court expenses upkeep of bridges and
schools, is simply reviving Special
Privileges Act, which was declared un.
constitutional in 1910. Those making
these assertions have not taken the
trouble to post themselves. In com
lparison these expenses are simply nom.
inal. The Fifth district pays an addi.
tional tax of cents for their schools
an extra tax that no other district in

poorer class of people, but by no means

FIND BOMB IN CEMETERY;
DISCOVERY AT TEXARkANA

TeXarkana, Tex, Oct. 25.-Some-
thing of a stir in Catholic church
circles was caused by the finding of
a dynamite bomb just inside the main
gate at the Catholic cemetery this
morning The bomb was about four
inches long with fuse pencil, all,
capped and ready for use. 1t is sur
missed that some person threw it
where it was found with a view to
destroying the large column gates OF
the cemetery, but its failure to eX-
plode prevented the accomplishment
OF its purposes.
The bomb was found by TIE sexton,
who handed it over to officials of
the church and these in turn took it
to the city authorities. Chief of Po-
lice Bryan pronounced the thing a
genuine dynamite bomb. a careful
and thorough investigation is being
made A good deal Of anti-Catholic
feeling was aroused in certain quar-
ters several weeks ago by some tray
cling speakers who delivered 2 num-
Der of addresses at the city hall, bit
terly denouncing the Catholic church.

OKLAHOMA GAME PLENTIFUL
Some Want Legislature to Stop Hunt
ina Altogether for One Year.

Tulsa, Okla, Oct. 25.-When the
Oklahoma hunting season opens, Nov.
/, hunters will be greeted with the
best sport in years. For two years an
effort has been made to breed up
quails and wild turkeys until now the
famous hunting preserves OF Okla
homa are literally teeming with fat
birds and 'gobblers'.
Also, there is a greater abundance
of large game than for a number of
years. The best hunting preserves
for large game this year are the Kia-
michi mountains, in southern Okla
homa, and the Usage reservation, long
a favorite haunt of hunters.
There is some talk of asking the
legislature, should it meet in January,
to stop all hunting within the bor-
ders of Oklahoma next year, in order
to permit birds and animals still
,urther to multiply, that their future
existence in Oklahoma be not men
aced

GRAND JURY INVESTIGATION
is ON AT PURCELL

oklahoma City, Oct 25.-J. II. Miley,
assistant attorney general, left for Pur-
cell Sunday, to conduct a grand jury
Investigation into the conduct of the
sheriff's office in Mccain county, and
other matters that may properly come
before that body. The grand jury CON
yened Monday is the first assembled in
Mccain county in many years, due to
the fact that such sessions represent
heavy burden upon the taxpayers.
More than half the lands in the coun-
tv are Indian lands and nOn-taXaDle.
Mark Green, a socialist, was elected
sheriff in the county at the last eiec-
tion. 1t was alleged that, in a recent
trial before a justice Of the peace, in
which one Dr. Colby was the defend
ant, one Of Green's deputies had a lst
of Jurors furnished him by an outsider,
and that. when the case was tried, the
men supplied from this list hung the
jury.
1t is said, the democrats are very
anxious to effect the removal of Green,
and a contest OF his election now is
pending in the supreme court. From
its political bearing this case is bound
to attract attention throughout the
state.
