BACK TAKES.
Some Questions and Criticisms
.-The most Delinquent are the
most Fortunate.

| M. Editor:
Being one whose name sppears on
the Delinquent List, ! am anxious to
know something more concerning
back Taxes than l can learn from mere
rumor. Some Of US have paid this
tax on demand not thinking of trying
in any way to evade principal or PEN
atty, which | shall designate tax in
terest. Although some of US were
not aware that we were owing any
thing Of ths- I'D, yet when The -.
counts wsro pr 1Dented IND We could
fnd no roeeir1s against them, we
concluded they were justly against
u, and as law abiding citizens we
were in duty hound to pay them.
Now I cannot understand why our
Board of Supervisors should order
the making up Of the list (which has
taken Treasurer and Deputy over
yesr) and then, order the collecsics
Of the same according to law, COM
pelling those who were ,cilling to pay
tar interest, while At their last ses-
sion they have said to the un.ci2yIng
and rebellio,as, that they shah only
pay common ten per cent. on oil tar
prior to 1868. II any were to be
relieved of this tax interest, why
were not al relieved. whrn the
list was completed aad subjece = the
inspection Of the Board before the
collection had begun! II there has
been misnanagement on the part of
our former Trcasurers and the Super.
visors at the same time released them
from their bonds, how could our
Board help knowing this prior to
their last session? / think there has
been neglect somewhere or the list
would not extend back to the year
1862. But does this neglect render
our tax law null and void? If the
County Board can pass laws in con-
Aict with the statute, what was there
to prevent them from doing it in
time to protect the Treasurer and his
deputies from the censure of those
who are not readers Of the proceed
ings of the Board. II the resolution
had been made retroactive there
would have been less room for those
who are suspicious to believe that
one set Of officers were bui6ing up .
reputation BY an action which places
another in . state Of Jeopardy.

Temperance int to chose the dram-
shops, and prohibit entirely the man.
ufaOture and sale Of ,4ntoxicsting
liquors for beverage,
Governor Perham Of Maine says in
his messageof 1871 that "ths prohibits
osy law ri this State, 20 fsr - I can
judge. Il ~ effective In the suppression
of the liquor trsfac - are other laws
against the crime they are intended to
prevent" and all the Senators and
Representatives In Congress from that
State jointly testify that 1.-THE law OF
itself, under . rigorous enforcement Of
10 provisions, has created temper
ance sentiment which IL marvellous,
and to which opposition 10 powerless.
In our opinion the remarkable tenn.
psrsoce reform Of today 10 the
legitimate child Of the law"
And In conclusion, I would quote
from the message of Governor McClurg
Of Missouri. In 1871. "Can you legis.
tate against this evil? There is
nothing wanting II there exists the
proper disposition. The legal right
cannot be disputed, - laws already
exis. intended to restrain it. It will
not Be- denied that apirituous liquors
are poisonous and destroy life and en-
tail disease on other generations, and
give 70 communities social disorder
and moral degradation.
"Intemperancs 10 slaying its victims
In equal degree With the sword. The
procesa is not 30 speedy, but sure. 1t
ON you, - statesmen, to con-
suit the best interests Of the people,
and insted Of being accessories to
crime through legislation, to elevate
humanity, and bless your country, to
enrich and not impoverish, to save
life, and not destroy. Put . stop to
the licensed sale Of poisons. Stop the
fioodgates Of intemperance aud sava
