Strip Mining Law
Effective June First

The strip mining bill signed Mon
day by Governor McKeldin com
pels an operator to register with
the Maryland Bureau of Mines in
Westernport before he begins pit
excavation of bituminous coal.
The operator gives an estimate
Of the number of acres of land af-
fected, must post 500 per acre and
cannot mine over four acres at each
operation. The director may require
additional bond if the original bond
is not sufficient and he may also
require the operator to backfill be-
fore stripping any additional area
under his permit and he may stop
entirely the operation.
Within specified time the oper-
ator must cover the exposed face
of unmined coal, level ridges of
spoilbanks so as to allow planting
of trees, grasses or shrubs The
landowner may use open pits for
ponds, instead of having them back
filled, if approved by the Bureau
of Mines.
If an operator does not come up
to the backfilling and planting, he
rorfeits his bond.

someone take care of their chill
dren; provide two senatorial
scholarships in each county and
Baltimore legislative districts to
Peabody Institute of Music.
The voting machine bill signed
by McKeldin originally would have
required use of the machines by the
1858 primary The date was changed
to November, 1856, however, after
legislators decided it would be bet
ter to have them used in an off
year" election.
About a third of Maryland's %
counties are without them including
Garrett, AllcGany and Frederick.
Just how the purchase of these
voting machines will be financed
and how many Garrett county will
require, has not been determined
by the Board of Supervisors of
Elections or the County Commits
sioners. There are twenty-seven
voting precincts in the county and
most of them would require more
than one voting machine. Machines
cost in the neighborhOod of Sl700
each. Many details will have to be
worked out by the local election
/ board.
