TAxEs.--The levy oftaxes by the Board
of Supervisors at their last meeting shows
a reduction of one mill from last year.
The county finances are in excellent con-
dition, and with a continuance ofthe pres
ent wise administration of affairs, the ten.
dency of taxation from this time onward
will be constantly downward.
The levy for city taxes is 5 mills, against
mill last year. This increase is not 80
much as it seems, for the two mills for
road purposes, heretofore levied and col.
lected separately are included in the above
levy. The actual increase is 21s mills
OF this = mill goes to the Library, and

ticket and pressing invitation to attend

al, Sept. oath, 25th and 26th. But for
the fact that it occurs at the same time
as our own fair, it would give US pleasure
to comply.
We acknowledge also an invitation to
be present at the Blackhawk county fair,
but the same circumstance prevents our
complying. It is on precisely the same
days as our home fair. 1t seems to us
that with timely conference among the Of.
ficers of the different county societies, this
clashing of dates might be avoided, at
least in contiguous counties.

DR. Won Week, a noted exposer Of
the tricks Of SO called spiritual mediums,
gave two of his entertainments at Wilcox
Hall on Tuesday and Wednesday eveE-
ings, but to much smaller audiences than
the merit of the performance deserved.
DR.. Won Week does not attack spiritual
ism as belief, but his exposure If the
tricks of the Dayenports and other pro,
fessional mediums was most complete
and satisfactory. He performs all the
feats of this class of jugglers as well, il
not better, than they do them, and
explains them on other grounds than that
Of spiritual agency. Dr.. Won Week will

who care for light upon his subject Of
piritual manifestations to attend.

The ring has become badly demoraliz-
ed; so much SO, indeed, as to resort TO all
sorts of falsehoods relative to the Peoples
-Coaseruatice.
The above is a charge without specif-
cations, but waving that, lift is true that
anybody is lying about the ''people's''
ticket, either for or against it, we have
no hesitation in saying that such party
or parties, whoever they may be are de-
serving of scorn and contempt Falsehood
is not legitimate political weapon, al
though much used. Now, we would like
to have the opinion of our cotemporary
upon transaction which is vouched for
by reliable citizens of Buffalo township
knowing to the facts. Those fac.s are
that one of the most prominent and &C.
tive promoters of the new party move
ment, a near relative of the editor of the
Conservative, attended large sale at the
place of E. X. jerks, in said township, q
few days since, and all the time he was
there industriously circulated the SLAM
der upon Hon. J. NJ. Hovey. that he is an
approver of and apologist for the Sal
airy grab by the last Congress. The mar.
who took SO much pains to circulate the
vile falsehood, knew it to be such, and
that he had not shred of evidence upon
which to base it; and yet he told it for
truth and doubtless is yet publishing it in
different parts of the county. If the
vague charge, without particulars that
some Republicans are telling falsehoods
about the peoples" ticket, is proof Of
the decentralization of the party, what
does the above specified facts import Tor
the reform" party?

EDITOR BULLETYN:-The enemies of

means in their power to break it down.

scolding. and tried to scare us back;
and one writer in the Conservative com.
pared US to serfs, and horses, and dumb
brutcs; but through it all, those who
had put their hands to the plow OF
this glorious reform, refused to turn
back. But now comes an enemy in a

WE would call the especial attention of
our readers to the letter from Mr.. Hovey
in another column, in which he gives an
emphatic and explicit denial to certain
charges against him, made out of whole
cloth, and sneakingly set alloat in portions
of the county by certain would be leaders
of the opposition. We do not think that
one in ten of the honest rank and file of
the new party would willingly do Mr..
Hovcy an injustice in word or deed; in
deed, We know that many Of them, on
account of his clear and unexceptionable
record in the Legislature on measures af-
fecting the interests of producers, have q
warm side for him. But there are a set
of pestilent domagogues who aspire to
control the new organizations; who 60 on
the principle that partisan success justi-
fies any means to obtain it, and who
scruple at nothing, however dish0norable.
These are the men who have Matched up
this SANDER. and they win probably keep
on retailing it, Notwithstanding Mr.
Hovey's denial We take pleasure In
expressing the opinion that Mr. Spang
Ter, the candidate opposed to Mr.. Hovey
is too honorable y man to give this sort
Of warfare the slightest countenance Of
encouragement.
