A political meeting whs held in the Bel Air \rrnory on Wednesday after n >on and evening. A very attractive feature of the meeting was a free ban quet which was liberally partaken of by the large crowd present, and Senator Blair Lee and Mr. Edward Colgan, formerly of Harford hut now a suc cessful member of the Baltimore bar, made addresses oil the subject of pre paredness.

Price had purchased a ticket to cross the bridge and was never again seen alive. As his hat was found ( on the structure and some men had j heard a startled cry it was generally ( believed at the time that he had either committed suicide or fallen overboard. , When the body was recovered, however, , the searchers were astounded to find t that the mart's throat had been cut.

Pennington* men 11 (oi in news. f)n* cose of the Mayor and City Council of Havre de Grace vs. James H Harlow and Frank J. Hoen was con eluded on Thursday. in his opinion filed on Saturday the Court declared the Susquehanna not navigable and re fused to grant the plaintiff's petition to prohibit the construction of a dam by the defendants In reaching this conclusion the Court said the plaintiff's case was based on certain statutes passed, hy the three states through which the river flows, between 1771 and I*l3 and the facts that rafts of logs and occasionally household goods were brought down stream several years ago. Changed conditions have made the statutes practically obsolete, and drifted the traffic to railroads and other public carriers. No evidence was introduced to show there had ever been any travel upstream. Under these circumstances the Court said the river is not navigable in fact, and hence not navigable in law. The case will be taken to the Court of 1 Appeals. The attention of the Court has he* n occupied with the removed damage suit from Baltimore county of Jacob Norris et al., vs, the Mayor and City Council of Baltimore since Monday. Mr. Norris, f who owns property on Back River near , Bread-and-C'heese Creek, claims that t since the building of one of Baltimore’s i sewerage disposal plants near his home e about two and a half years ago, the h water has been badly polluted and rental values greatly reduced. As he is the ' s owner of several resorts he feels that a he has suffered to the extent of $50,000 i. by the erection of the plant. It is claimed by the city that the building of the plant had nothing lodo with the con dition of the water, its dark color being due to the fact that the stream is a sluggish one and passes through marshy land. Mr. Norris is represented hy at torneys John D. Nock, Carville D. Ben son ami Thomas 11 Robinson, while Messrs. Edward J. Colgan, Jr., and W. W. Preston represent Baltimore. / HILLS SIGNED. On Wednesday Governor Harrington, after giving a final hearing in the mat ter. (luring which equities in the inter ests of the parties concerned were brought out for the first time and made a deep impression on him, signed the hill for the relief of certain sub-con tractors who had furnished labor and material for the construction of the new State Armory m Bel Air. These vie tons, through statements made to them hy apparently responsible parlies, put their material and labor into the prop erly to the extent of $•,000 the payment for which was duly provided for at the time, hut it ami their right to recover were swallowed up when contractors L. I Whalen & Co., passed into the hands of receivers. A complete record of the facts in the case would make an inter esting page in unwritten local history. As indicated in our last issue, Gover nor Harrington has signed the hill re quiring the County Commissioners to pay Mr. Robert 11. Archer, Jr., $(135 for having compiled a code of the local laws for Harford county. As stated hy him, his action was based on the written request of each member of the Board that he should do so. We have never had the pleasure of examining the code, hut trust that it will prove to he h valuable asset to our people. PERSONAL MENTION. Miss Mamie L.

COI MV AGENT’S I SEE I I, NESS I \LI Ml I ED. Mr. G. H. Alford, stale head of tin* County Agent work, writing to Malt, more county, says “Your county demonstration agent is an ambassador from the United Stales Department of Agriculture and the Maryland Agricultural College to Hal timore county. He is recognized hy the Department of Agriculture ami tin* college as the director of agricultural work for your county. His services are free. “If you want to prune or spray fruit trees or vegetables; if you an* in tin* market for fertilizers, good seed, nursery stock, farm implements, silos, pure-bred males; if you want to build a barn or dwelling, if you want to in stall a water or lighting system in your home, call on him. “If you want to organize a farmers’ club; if you want to improve your com munity hy securing a rural route, a telephone system, or anything to make farm life more attractive, get in touch with the county agent. “Of course, the county agent will rail be able to furnish you the desired information at all times, hut he can secure the services of a s|*ecialist with in a very short time to aid you The county agent is personally acquainted with the specialists and they give im mediate attention to his requests for help. Call, telephone or write him when in need of information or help.” In other words the best students of government believe that if the produc tiveness of a given section is doubled this is equivalent to cutting the tax rate in half; but Harford says: “The few can get along in spite of the high tax rate, — let the many goto the wall. We are not going to spend sloof> to teach tenant farmers and young ambitious , men how to become successful pro ducers; if each man can’t pay for him self let him live and die in the ranks of the ignorant."

For the failure to nominate Mr. Fee Senator in the corn ing primaries will be a declaration by the people that they are not in sympathy with and do not care for the reforms for which he lias stood and worked, tint are satisfied with the present conditions of affairs in our State Do not, voters of our Gnunty, let such an unfortunate thing happen.
