Statement Not Correct.
Last week we published an item from
the Sykesville Post-Dispatch to the
effect that the Jefferson Traction Co.
would change the route of the trolley
line at Big Soldier and run to one side
of the town Instead of running through
the business section of the town as it
does now. The reason given for the
change was that the Traction Co. had
some differences with the supervisors
of Winslow township. We haye been
informed by the Winslow township
supervisors that the statement is not
correct. They have not had any differ
ences with the trolley company at all.
Mr. Swan, superintendent of the
Jefferson Traction Co., don't kdf w any
thing about the changing of route of
line at Big Soldier.

overcome by their exertions and forced
to fall victims of the deadly fumes with
in the tank. Myers attracted the at
tention of other employes of the brew
ery, who carried him into a place of
safety and went to the rescue of the
other two, but to tholr horror, found
that they bad been asphyxiated. ,

an opinion in which he held that under

either an all-cash tax or an all-work
tax; there cannot be a part-cash tax
and part-work tax, as heretofore. The
opinion was rendered on the application

who do not want an all-cash tax. They
desire to go back to the old system of
part-cash and part-work. But. In ylow

all-cash system. In their petition they
asked that the matter of a change be
put to a vote, provided the Court held
that there cuuld be part-cash and part
work; otherwise, they did not desire to
vote on the subject, and Judge Criswell
accordingly refused the petition.
