States and see if we are not correct,
and also ask him why we shouldn't
use this method for the appointment
of officials.
The biggest laugh came to US when
we read his spiel on Tammany Hall
and corrupt politics. Whoever heard
of small town developing a machine
like Tammany? Does Mr.. Notabene
realize that Tammany's county COM
mittee is composed of ten thousand
delegates? How could a small town
offer the opportunity for corruption
when every voter is personally known
by every other voter and the character
and calibre of each candidate for of
flee is known? Still he would have
us believe that the democratic form of
government we propose would become
corrupt. True, his speech is an at
tempt at eloquence, but the only pow
er it has is in his use of words and
not in his use of judgment.
There are several things we can't
understand. Why couldn't the Asso-
citation function under a mayor and
council? Don't other business organ
izations function under municipal
governments If the present form of
government is fair and square why
do the higher powers attempt to fight
our establishing legal, standard, ac-
cepted, modern form of government?
All we can say is there must be a
Trigger in the woodpile some place."
We have not meant to be partisan,
biased or satrical and have only tried
to present facts, not only as we see
them, but facts which are stated by
most of the standard writers on mu-
nicipal affairs who have made a life
study of governments.
If Mr.. Notabene had not written
such an indignant and unworthy arti-
Gle, we would never have gone to this
trouble. Thank you for your atten-
ton, and we are called on to repeat
Mr.. Notabene's advice: "tsRead the
proposed charter carefully before you
vote.'"

LIBERTY"
To the Edtir of The Republican.

To the Edtir of The Republican.
Life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness" those three great things
allotted to us by the Constitution of
these great United States; but are we
the citizens of the Community of Mt.
Lake Park granted these privileges?
Let US consider these points: Life,
yes. Liberty? What is it? Do we
people of this community enjoy this
privilege? Are we supposed to share
in the freedom of one of the greatest
nations of the face of the earth, and
one of the oldest democratic States in
the Union, or are we to be satisfied
by form of government not intended
by the makers of our Constitution?
1t seems to me that the time has
come for the people of this town to
make that decision. Surely it is not
necessary that we go back to the
days of the Revolutionary War. Yet
in the Community people are taxed
and without the franchise to vote, I'M
less they purchase their ballot. If
such thing as this was worth fight
ing for in those days, it surely should
be more so now in this era of ad-
vanced civilization. Why should we
not share in the principles and free
dom that this great country of ours

A Reply to NOtabene

To the Editor of The Republican.
A short time ago circular entitled
S'Mt. Lake Is Again Agitated by Lo-
cal People," was hurled into our midst.
The pen-name of this would be politi-
cal writer was Notabene. We think it
should have been signed "Just A
Bean"
We didn't know whether to become
amused or angered when we read it.
Amused perhaps because of its absur-
dity and angered because he evidently
believed the people of his community
ignorant enough to fall for his faulty
reasonings. -
Of one thing were we. convinced,
and that was that Mr.. Notabene is
not a student of municipal govern
ment. AS this is an attempt to prove
the fallacy of his arguments and not
coed. ~.
First, he made the foolish state
ment that "The Mayor and Council
can pass and enforce all laws and or
dinances that they want" We won
der where he got that idea. Does he
not realize that we have National and
State Constitutions, and that no laws
and ordinances can be IN conflict with
these? Does he not realize that the
town is subordinate to- the State and
that the State will interfere If the
town authorities attempt to exceed
their authority? Has he never heard
OF Judge Diflon's famous law or de-
clsion which is generally. accepted as
being authority. This law states
that the mayor and council has only
such powers as are granted to them
an the charter and all other powers
necessary to carry out the delegated
powers. A number of other restric-
ton could also be cited-such as pres
sure brought to bear on the mayor
through public opinion.
Yet Mr.. Notabene would have the
voters believe that the governing body
would have unlimited powers; in fact
he would have US believe that we are
attempting to set a more aligircial
form OF government than the one now
existing: A study of the charter will
show this to be an absurdity, for is it
not like any other town charter and
more up to date in some respects?
Mr.. Notabene certainly shows his
ignorance in municipal matters when
he says the mayor should not have the
power to appoint the treasurer, as
SCISSOR, tax collector, etc. Let us say
that this is practiced in most towns
IN the United States and has come to
US as development in the evolution
OF town government. Prior to the
Civil War these offices in most town
governments were filled at election
time by popular votes. This system
resulted in extreme disintegration. It
set up number of officials who were
responsible to no one but the voter. It
was found that this system entirely
lacked executive unity.
Under. the system as stated in our
proposed charter the mayor appoints
these officials. This means centraliza-
ton instead of disintergration. These
oflcials are responsible to the MAYOR
and If they do not properly carry out
their functions the people can bring
pressure to bear through public opin-
ION and it will be to his best adyan-
tage that he appoints efficient men.
We will ask Mr. 'Notabene to trace
tne history of the development of mu-
nlc1pal government in the United

was founded on? Why are people
registered in other states and cities
allowed to vote here in this Maryland
town, by proxy, if they find it conve-
nient, and so desire? Surely you will
agree with me when I say it is con-
trary to the Constitution of our coun-
try and to the government of the SOW
ereign State of Maryland. Yet this
thing is practiced here, and we are
condemned if we voice ourselves
against it. Are we the citizens of the
United States supposed to give up
our liberty for the benefit of some as
ISOLATION, corporation or body of peo-
pie that might derive personal gain?
There is only one legitimate answer,
and that to my mind is No!
Why should we be deprived of
municipality? 1t could not hamper
the business of any person, groups of
persons or corporations. These things
are not permissible under State stat
utes. Would it deprive the present
Association of anything that right
fully belongs to it? Could it ever
hope to do so? Yet we hear on every
hand that if charter is granted that
it will destroy the town; that the
property of people will be "erected on
stilts," and that every property hol-
der will lose fortune in the transac-
ton. 1t is true that the charter pro-
vides for and is granted the privi-
leges of body polite, but it is not
the same thing in force in our present
charter? Yes, and to whose hands is
it entrusted? Do the citizens enjoy
this privilege? And if they don't de-
serve it, who does?
Why not get down to facts and
see if these is any reason why we
should not enjoy a government as de-
scribed by the great American, of the
people, by the people and for the
people, instead of just small part.
And in closing allow me to call
your attention to the following state
ment:
Municipal institutions constitute
the strength of free nations. A ma
tion may establish a system of free
government, but without municipal
institutions it cannot have the spirit
of liberty"
