The brief prepared by the counsel for the appellees considers the case from two points of view.

They'also say that the relat- ors have undertaken to join mendatory and in- tive relief ‘and that such mis- joinder is necessarily fatal. On a constitu tional point they insist that the constitution of Maryland permits a levy of taxes for the good government and benefit of the community, and t by virtue of this clause innumerable ex- emptions have been sustained; that the legis- lature conferred the power of taxation upon the commissioners of Hyattsville in the very words of the constitution, and that therefore the powers of the commissioners are identically as great inthe matter of tax assessments in their jurisdiction as are the powers of the legie- lature in ite jurisdiction.

They settled down to business with little formality, and before the morning session was over bad resolved them- selves into | permanent organization, to be known as the Maryland Road League, and had ‘elected the following permanent officers: Henry ©. Devries of Howard county, president; John Miller of Prince George's county, vice presi- dent, and Eugene Blackford of Baltimore, secre- tary for Maryland of the National League for Good Roads, secretary and treasurer, and en executive committee. The latter is to consist of et Btn DO Wintin Baes Bas Blackford and ove. member from each of the counties of the stato, with three from Baltimore city. Secretary Sams read an address of welcome from Mayor Latrobe. The latter had expected to be present, but was detained by pressing business. The chair then appointed the following com- mittee on temporary organization: Mr. Jacob M. Pierce, Baltimore county; Edward W. Baker, Harford county, and Edward C. Gilpin, Montgomery county. ‘They reported on the following for permanent officers of the con- vention: President, Henry O. Devries of How- ard county; vice presidente, G. W. Lurman, B, Howard Haman, D. C. Wharton Smith, Frank Frick, Jas. A. Gary, Charles FP. Mayer, George C. Wilkens, John M. Hood, William Gilmore, Carroll Goldsborough, and the chairman of each organization represented at the conven- tion; secretary, Conway W. Sams; assistant secretaries, Eugene Blaikford and William B. NATIONAL ORGANIZATION. Gen. Roy Stone of New York, vice p-esident of the National League for Good Roads, made an address, saying in part: “The people who want roads must get together, consult, discus and combine themselves into such an organtzi tion that when they have finally settled upon an of action that plan will represent the best Judgment of the people, and will find its own way of being carried out in legislation and operation. ‘This work of education and organi- zation is the purpose of the National League for Good Roads. “I believe that the organization of a state league or division of the National League for Good Roads will be of much more practical | value than the organization of an independent te road association. The state road associa tions have aimost uniformly been failures. A national organization can certainly be kept alive, and it can furnish a constant stimulus and assistance to its stato organizations, while there will be a degree of emulation between them. The national organization will furnish speakers and literature and assist the state or- gani: in any effort to procure local legis- lation or other reforms, and while each state league will be entirely independent in all purely state matters it will be fully supported yy the national organization.” WHAT A UNIVERSITY CAN Do. President D. C. Gilman of the Johns Hopkins University was then introduced. He said: | “You may ask what can a university do to pro- mote the end you are now considering. I will auswer by stating that you are now entering | upon a campaign of education, and we can help | Zou by training up the young men. We can elp you by the use of our pens, aiding you in the preparation of your educational literature. It is the work of every great university con- ducted on a broad and liberal plan to do all within its power to aid the people. I think such institutions shouid study its environ- ments,and by the information thus gained helping the people to go forward. While we cannot participate actively in any political movement, we are with you heartily in the de- sire for the best interests of the people.” President Devries announced the following committee on the perfection of a plan for a permanent organization: L. M. Bacon, Wm. B. nds, F. W. Baker, W. R. Price and B. How- ard While this committeo was out ad. dresses were made by Mr. Henry W. Williams, | on the economic side of the road question, and | by Mr. Charles M. Howard, on its social aspect. DISCUSSION ON THE SUPERVISOR. Mr. D.C. Wharton Smith offered a resolu- tion that it was thesense of this convention “that the parceling out of county roads to an army of assistant supervisors is @ pernicious system, and deserves the seal of our condemnation.” Debate on this was limited to five minutes each, E. C. Gilpin of Montgomery county said: “We have 600 miles of roads in our county and about 120 supervisors. We aunually expend $18,000 | onour roads. It is said that politics enters | largely in tho work, but I have for years worke and acted against the commissioners, I do not think we need any radical change.” After conriderabie debate the resolution was carried over as unfinished business, to be called up at another time. RESOLUTIONS INTRODUCED AND LAID OVER. Mr. Lurman offered a resolution *‘thnt it is the sense of this convention that the only aatis- factory method of constracting roads is by the iseue of bonds under proper restriction. | ‘This resolution was laid over until today. Mr. Lurman then offered another resolution, as follows: Resolved, That it is the sense of this conven- tion that the turnpike companies should be ab- | sorbed by the state,and the turnpikes made free roads, under some equitable plan to be de- cided upon by a state commission. y Iso was laid over until today. Mr. Lurman then moved that the executive committee should draft a plan or law to be.sub- mitied to the convention at another meeting, to be adopted by it and submitted to the nex: | legislature in reference to the state assuming | charge of the rond system generally. j Thi was carried, with the amendment that such a plan or draft should be first submitted to the people generally by publication, before the meeting of the convention, offered by W. T. L, Taliaferro. ‘ME. HAMAN'S PROPOSITION, At night Mr. B. Howard Haman delivered an address, in which he showed how the necessary funds for the making of good roads iy the state and their maintenance could be effected out of of the Chesapeake bay. ted, my proposition is this: The can be made to produce to thi state a revenue sufficient to keep in ropair ali the roads and bridges within its borders, ‘The ntate now kpends every year £500,000 for this purpose, ‘This i« raised by direct taxation. It could be gotten from the buy by leasing the bottoms fit for ovster planting and charging a ir rental for such leases. And here I would remark that the bay and its navigable tribu- taries belong to the state at Inrge. A very per- tinent question here is, What rovenue could be derived in this way? In 1884 there was a bal- ance in the state treasury of accumulations of the oyster fund amounting to $244,081.59, made up of money received from licenses paid by fishermen. In 1990 there was only $101,106.24, making «loss of nearly €143,000 in aix years, and this due merely to the fact that our oyster domain has been plowed and harrowed almost to exhaustion, and the net result at present is a reat many ‘wealthy packers, a great many Aotrishing snd thriving connmision men ands great many thousands of boatmen who bave lived from this industry, while you, the land- lords and real owners, have for the future nothing to look forward to but a depleted and worn-out property. “The bottoms of the Chesapeake bay consist, for our purpose, of two classes of land. — First, the natuial beds or bars, as they are called by the fishermen, and, second, the ‘barren bot- tom.’ On the natural beds oF bars oysters grow without the aid of man. The barren bottoms are those parts where no oysters are now pro- duced. The barren portions of the bay are capable of yielding, under proper cultivation, more than the amount which has been gat! ered from the natural beds, which have aged 10,000,000 bushels for ten years. ypon correctness of this last statement my whole yument hinges."” fe was followed by Mr. James E. Wilkinson, who gavea number of stereopticon views of bad roads in this country an Europe. The views were from a collection made by Mr. Isaac B. Potter of New York, who was to have been present and to have delivered & lecture on the subject of “Good and Bad Roads,” and from Mr. Wilkinson's own collec tion, taken during a bicycle tour in Europe two years ago. ——__+e-___ Do Not Poke the Ear.

The bodice is embroidered | all over in white, except the yoke, which is of | white wrought ‘in gray stars. But it is the cloak in which the future queen will arrive in Buchares: that is making all the young women envious over the sea. It is a pelisse of shaded velvet, tinted in artistic gradations from deep heliotrope to silver fawn, entirely innocent of trimming, but lined throughout with pure white fox, which forms broad revers when tire cloak is thrown open. The gown beneath it is of mirror velvet, shaded in subtle tints of wil- low green, and is simply made, without trim- ming, except a wide belt of gold and all the shades of green suggested by the lights in the veivet. Twenty-four silk petticoats are included in the generous trousseau; nine dozen handker- chiefs, all of exquisite quality and embroidered with the cipher M. surmounted by the royal crown, and nine dozen of stockings, mostly ilk, embroidered by hang, to match’ the cos- tumes with which they will be worn, and each one marked with the initial and the crown. ‘The great feature of the outfit is the wonderful beauty of the embroideries, the originality of the designa and the exquisite way in which they have been carried out. oo Affairs in Mexico.
