The best possible answer to his vagaries is
this:
That under the identical administration

the taxpayers of this County, the county
and town scrip has steadily deprecated
during the past four years, at the rate of
ten or twelve per cent per annum, and the
county and town are to-day paying one
dollar for what can be purchased for forty
cents-with the prediction on all sides, that
the bottom is not yet reached
This man, speaking by authorty-it is to
be presumed of the Board in whose service
he writes, aAd whom he re-elects by dash
of his pen--promises the laborBg men of
this community, in exchange for their votes
to continue the present administration in
power-another years ''fair distribution of
the whole" tax, "among as many of our
working men as we can prdctjcdbtg reach,

seen whether the promise of such paltry
bribe as this. will not be hurled back in
their teeth Tuesday next.

has been in progress here, much of
which has appeared, and appears
to-day, in The TINES, touching up
on the qualifications of our Board
} OF Supervisors, and their manage
ment of our county and town affairs.
The members of the Board are, to-
day, individually and collectively,
In some quarters, the best abused
men in the town; but after care
ful examination Of all the arguments
presented, and a due consideration
of the animus which has prompted
this determined onslaught npon
tn no, the majority of our people
have irresistabIy reached the verdict
of mot guilty. and that the elab-
crate e.cparte showings of financial
mlsmanagement and bankruptcy
are only electioneering lodges.
The result will be the practical vim
dication of the Board, by their re-
election next Tuesday.
Supposing the members of the
Board are not Solomons in wisdom.
nor Boutwells IN finance, the ques-
ton ARISES, can we, ali thicos con-
sldered, find better men? The an
swer is, emphatically, ace can not.
1t Is true they are all unfortunately
foreigners, (Desimval French, Col
her Irish, and Soderlund, Swede.) J
against whom, rs a class, strong
prejudice exists in certain quarters
here at the present time. But they
are good, honest, practical, careful
men, who have The interest of the
county aud town deeply at heart
Their record as a Board will com
pare favorably with that OF any for
mer Board, and they have the
stamina to disallow exhorbitant or
unjust demands upon the treasury,
and that is why the shoe pinches
some people who, therefore, are
using every effort To have the Board
"step down and out" Messrs. Des-
imval, Collier and Soderlund being
men OF the people, are the especial
friends OF the working men, and it
has been, and will be, their policy
TO furnish all the labor their re-
sources will possibly warrant to the
laborlng men, a class who are really
the bone and sinew of any country.
How much work can the laborinp
men expect from board ofso- called
gentlemeR9 If IA board of these
gentlemen should get in, the work
ing men might as well pack up their
duds and leave.
1t Is To be regretted that a spirit
of Know N othingism pervades here
in some quarters; that there is q
feeling that the place has been con.
trolled long enough by "Tgnorant
foreigners" Indians aud blacks !;
that if Paddy, Hans, Ole, Indian or
Samho want office or favors, they
should seek them elsewhere. 1t is
even said that every Swede, Ger
man, Frenchman, Irishman and
mixed blood will have to show his
full papers before he will be allowed
To vote. Can it be that the Balti-
more Plug Ugly spirit is yet alive,
and in our midst? THE yoters on
Iuesday uect should crush and
bta,y such q spirit.

Overdrawn in four years $50, Sl6, S:

The law positively forbids the issuing in
any one year of greater amount OF orders
Team the tar levied for sueh gear, and the law
should make such issue misdemeanor, and
perhaps it does. In the foregoing, | have
added town and county oveIdratts and shown
the two together. Mr. Ref's statement in
The TINES OF March Is, gave the county ex-
cesseS only.
The statute commands the Supervisors TO
keep the orders ailbus the annual levy
Why? Because il Is intended that thes,
money warrants shall be paid, dollar for dol

can YOU rely upon collection of ali the taxes
for any one year? No, for more or less will
be delinquent What makes or tends 10
make the deficit good Evidently the re-
demptons and sales Of TAX certificates OF the
preceding years From which source sums
of money are presumed TO be gradually COM
ing in so as to recruit the treasury, and 10
meet the current expenditures; or, in other
words, to keep up the orders at par. But
suppose, having exhausted the regular levy
for the year, the Boara incur debt ana put
out orders upon the faith OF delinquent taxes,
which exist IL the shape c. unredeemed or

Is manifest that such debts cannot be paid.
The result Is that scrip falls III value, like

This overdraft of S30.3l6.S2 was made
against reserves which the law imperatiyely
forbade the Board To touch, except through
the legitimate way orders issued and k MT
within the limits Of the levy for the given
year This enormous liability was incurred
not on the credit of actual resources but of
apparent assets IN tax certificates And how
unreliable such stuff is TO realize uDon will
be remembered from the fact that twenty
cents on the dollar was all that could be got
10 1876, and certificates would Weld still less
today
1t Is well known that tax certificates bear
20 per cent interest per year-doubling in
four years A delinquent tax sale of $40.
900 becomes $40, 900 in this short space from
interest alone, besides costs and fees of
many dollars more. If owners saw anv use

dence To buy these certificates an uninter-
rupted revenue would flow into the treasury.

worth which nobody will touch? But this
is the capital on which the foolish Super

business.
The orders thus overdrawn in violation of
statute, as well OF the plainest rules of busi-
ness, are passed in together with the req1tla,.
issues and applied to the payment of taxes.

They may just as well settle their
