theoretically divided. Tho other "town ;" OIL

Supervisor calls "town meeting" in the early

that a certain sum Of money bo raiBed by
taxation for "town" purposes. This meeting
consists generally Of twenty or thirty poraons
THO town purposes for which tho tax iB lowed

tho ta1, tue town meeting then proceeds to elect
tho town officers for the ensuing year.
The nffairs Of tho town aro administered by
tho Town Board. BY q provision Of tho law,

This division Of the plunaor Ind tho ef~
feet Of calling out ns candidates for
these Offices scores Of aubtorranean patriots,
all intont on handling the public money. ThoAo
officers havo no duties savo nominal ones. the
Collector maY or nny not collect some taxos, but
all tho work lie docs Gun bo as we'll dono by tic
County Collector. The whole machinery Of tho
town meeting and the Town Board was fraud,
aud q useless appendage to tho System Of loca.
government.
just ut this juncturo Mr. Rountree's bin
comes In force. aud takes tho s.eal out of this
whole busineas,-or at least transfers it to a
highor responsibility. It provides that, in towns
lying wholly within the limits OF Incorporated
cities, all moneys necessary to be raised for
town purposes shall be ascertaiuod by
the County Board. This abolishes por-
emptorily tue voting Of taxes by tho
annual town meeting. It leaves to the County
Board the fixing OF tho amount of tax to he
collected aud the purpose for which it is to bo
collected. To do this, they will havo to fix tho
anlarics Of those officers, and, rs may bo oxpoct-
cd, will fix them with reference to tho acryce
performed. As there will be no occasion for any
further meetings of the Town Board. tie otficcu
Of Supervisor and Town Clork will be amply
compensated by m allowance Of $40 eacl poc
year. Tho Assessor mud Collector eau be lber-
ally paid with S1,600 year each, and thus tho
impudout fraud be practically abolished. This
inv will deprive tho town elections Of next weok
Of much OF their interest; tho power to vote
away public money il uboli shed, and tho Offices
to DO filled may be practically abolished BY re-
ducing tho salaries to q nominal sum.

STEALING TELEGRAMS.

A1r. B. F. Butler, the controller of tho Reput-
licau party in Massachusetts the patron )
Dawes, md the SUCCESSOR Of Tom Murphy as
confidential adviser Of tho President, has been
at hia old trick of stealing telegrams again. It
will be remembered that during the impeach-
mont triai tho demagoguo Of tho evil eyo got
hold Of barrelful or 30 of private dispatches by
q process little better than theft. Tho compli-
monts ho received for luis dexterity On that occa-
sion hayo omboldened him to commit another
depreciation of tho eame kind. During tho Sim
mons contest, Ills friends boastod TINT he got
lold Of private kilograms to Massachusetts
members before they did themselves.
Investigation ia said to havo shown that tho
"Essex County statesman" kept clork near
tho telegraph-instrumont whoBo duty it waa to
listen to the messages as they came over tho
wires and writo out copies at once for the uso Of
his employer. The Hon. Il. L. Pierce, Of Bos-
ton, the only Republican Congressman, except
Foster, Of Ohio, who has recently dared to
attack tho bully, has secured the passage
OF q resolution directing the Architect Of tho
Capitol to incloso tho ACCOMPLISHMENTS
SO that tho messages they click cannot hereafter
po road by sound by outsiders. The resolution
rocitss that "cortain uuprinoiplod persons"
have hitherto fllohed kilograms i'll thus way. 1t
is strange that the House dared to visit oven
this mild ccnsure on the head Of Dutior. It Ia
pleasant spectacle Congress- presents in this
matter. Imagine tho House Of Commons vot-
Ing that, inasmuch as Disraeli Ind been guilty of
the moanost sort Of petty larceny by Stealing
private kilograms, therefore euro should be takon
to prevent lis doing no again. Congress would
find it cheaper to hiro q dotcctiye whose solo
function should be to prevent Butlor's stealing
hereafter, instead Of waiting until the horse
has boon takcn, and then solcmuly boiling the
door while the thief chuckleY ovor His booty
with his pnlR.
