Capt. John Stark.

The subject of this notice was a cousin
OF General John Stark, the hero of Ben
nington, with whom he Is sometimes con-
founded. He commanded a company In
the battle of Bennington, and was among
the early settlers of Pswlet. He was one
the first judges of Rutland county, ap-
pointed in 1888. He was a large land pro-
prietor In the western part Of that town,
and the records show him to have been a
man of standing and influence. He built
the house now occupied by Hon. Ira
Marks, which is said to be the Oldest house
in town. He raised family Of twelve
daughters and one son. His son Samuel
raised family Of ten daughters and four
sons before he removed to Oswego county,
New York. None of his descendants re-
main In town. A granddaughter, wife of
Isaac t. Paris Of Fairfax, IL the only de-
scendant personally known to the writer
living In the state. Capt. Stark removed
to Grand Isle about 1900, where he was
soon after instantly killed by the kick of a
horse.

THE RUTLAND MORNING. JUNE 2a Ia77

Our antedsluvisn contemporary, which
"is not sensation Journal" has got 'em
again, bad. Yesterday 1t announced, with
the air Of telling something the world had
been waiting ages to hear, that James Will
liams, poor laborer in Shrewsbury, had
fallen heir to $3.50 900 by the death of q
rich relative in England, and began to con-
lecture what he would do with his money.
The fact is that the legacy is $50, and has
been lying in the bank OF England twenty
years in charge Of the executor. If Will
liams gets bis money he will probably pay
most of 1t to the lawyers who secure 1t for
him. That editor needn't lie awake nights
longing for legacy to pay bis debts with.

Civil Record of PaWlet.

This town was chartered ia 1851, but We
have no record prior to 1863. Its FIRST
town clerk was DR.. Simon Burton; FIRST
constable, Jedediah Reed. Its first repre-
sentative to the general assembly was
Yadoc Everest. Since 1888 there have
been thirty-seven representatives, of whom
eight may be classified politically as demo-
Gratis, seven as federals, nine as wings, one
as know nothing, eight as republicans, and
the remainder unclassifed. Since 1S41
there have been seventeen representatives,
fourteen of whom are now living. This
town was among the earliest settled in the
county, and took an active part In the early
struggles.
1t is considered one of the uest farming
towns in the county, and for many years
was second only to Rutland in enterprise,
population and wealth. The first cotton
mills, first mills and wooden mills In the
county were built here. An academy which
ranked among the best in the state was
erected about 1900, which prospered about
forty years. Apublic library and q band
of music were established at the same time.
Among the early settlers were eminent
professional men-the fret president of
the Vermont medical society. Dr. Lemuel
Chapman, and the first president of the
Rutland county medical society, DR.. John
Sargent, were residents of this town.
We now rank about the eleventh In
the county and do not hold our own.
With unegualled water power our mills are
nearly all closed. Our slate quarries, which
are not surpassed IN the county, are mainly
worked by residents of another state. We
have few capitalists and thousands of dol
lars are paid yearly to money-lenders of
other towns. The question that confronts
US to-day is, shall the town aid In the con-
struction of the Whitehall and Brattleboro
railroadf The people in the west part of
the town are almost unit in opposition,
while the east part, which will be more
especially benefited, is divided.
No one wishes to stay-no one wishes TO
settle at distance from a railroad. Some
think II town aid is given to the road, prop
erty will depreciate: others think a road
will effect restoration to our former stand
ing. All the other towns in the county
that have no railroad facilities near their
principal village are dropping like us, while
all the towns that have such facilities At
their principal village are building up. A
town without a thriving village Is of small
account. Such towns will always lose by
emigration Its most enterprising citizens.

A Test Case of the Present Tax Law.
William b. Moses, through his counsel, Col.
william A. Cook, yesterday filed bill In equity,
praying for an injunction against the District
Commissioner and John y. Cook, late collector to
restrain them from collecting the revenue tax for
the year ending June 90. 1877, amounting to
tlo65.66, including the penalty. Tho bill says
there Is no authority in law to levy said tax that
Congress has no power TO direct the levy OF a
specific tax; that the taxes under the act are for
the support of officers appointed by the United
States without the concurrence Of the resident c.
rens aud not responsible thereto but 10 the United
States, and for the benefit protection, and support
Of the property Of the United States In which the
paintiA and other citizens have no concern other
than Is common TO all citizens Of the United States;
that thu taxes have not been levied In accordance
with the Constitution and valid laws Of the United
States but In conflict with them that the Com.
missioner did not comply with the law by prcpar
ing printed schedule, nor was such served on
him that certain persons claiming 70 act as asses.
sors assumed to levy tax Of 1884, 49, and that said
assessment WAS not on his present property for the
sum named, but on date prior thereto. and hav
ing paid certain taxes on account OF sad property
and therefore this tax is double, He further says
that IL he were to suffer distraint he cannot re
cover Of the District, which is insolvent, and h,
therefore asks an injunction. This Is considered
