has been in town since 1910.
The best Of feeling prevailed and, If wO are
not mistaken, its effects will be sensbly felt at

Messrs. bingham and Brewer made cxcelen,
speeches. The locoIocos may have been seen
in the out skirs, biting their lips and kniuing
their br6Ws, as peal after peal of Scott thunder
broke upon them. 1t was a sorry day for them.
They have been thinking since of giving il up
and not go ng 10 The election. They had as
we'll, all IheiIelIorts are lost powder, they will
be licked just as sure US the sun rises to.mor

isfac,ory reasons why Cen. Scott should be

Taxes.

Much has been said and written about taxes,
and there have been many speculalions us TO
their increase or decrease under The operations
Of the new tax law. Our first impressions Of
that law have been found TO be correct, to.wit:
That it was most rascally unfair law, lis
true that the levy is one tenth Of a mill, or
Whereabouts, less this year than il was last, yet
the fact that abou, the same amount Of taxes
are 10 be collected this year that were paid last
year, while the tax payers number but about
Two thirds of what they did last year, is concIu.
siye evidence TO our mind, that the law operates
most unjusIly and unfairly. The burden is not
dislrbu,.d in equal proportions among the Peo'
pie. One third ase entirely exempted.
A week ago we asked lhe tax payers to go to
The auditors Office aud exomne the Duplicate
to see il their taxes were greater or Jess 'hon
last yenr; and we again Iepeut the request. Fer
if youg go, you will at once be convinced that
lhIs story Iocofocos have been telling about low
er taxes is a base lie.
We took The pains 10 look at few OF the en-.
ries on the dup upIicaIe, and we find that the taxes
