COLLECTING TAXEs.-The Milwaukee
Sentinel is earnestly agitating what we
have often claimed, the folly of collecting
taxes in Wisconsin in mid winter, when
business men are closing up their accounts
and collecting in their demands. The
argument is all one way to collect in
June or October in preference to January
or March. 1t is understood that the
question of making change in the law
has already been informally canvassed by
the Assembly committee of Ways and
Means.

doubt, many others besides ourselves
and we cannot wonder any longer, that
the people Of Two Rivers consider them

The prospects Of large appropriation
for barbor at that point are now very
encouraging and when accomplished, the

fail TO seek and to obtain an outlet by
that port to the East and South.

We learn from the Appleton Crescent
that the attendance at the last Meeting
of the Grand Lodge was by far the larg-

conceded to be the ablest body of men
ever assembled in Wisconsin.
The time of m Getting was changed to
the first wednesday after the first Tues
day in December. The next session will
be held at Maids m, Dec g. 1871.
The representatives to the G. L. =,
S. were instructed by an ov erwhelming
majority to support all the progressive
measures relative to the Rebekah Degree
and the right of Daughters to control
Rebekah Lodges.
Nearly all the decisions of Grand Mas.
ter Ryan were affirmed.
A uniform code of Bylaws for subor
dinates is to be reported at the next ses-
sion.
Proposals are invited for the location Of
Widow and Orphan Home; donations
in land, money, etc.
Per capita tax to Grand Lodge reduced
to thirty cents.
A vast amount of business of interest
to the Order was disposed of.
