GUILTY or FOURTEEN MURDERS.
The Grimes OF Family on the Texas From
tier-Sentebced TO Death.

ST. LOUIS, June 2-Gcorge Brown lived
near Albany. Mo-. about twenty years ago. Ho
was a good citizen and church mcmber. He
moved to Cook county. Texas with three sons.
George. Jesse. and Josiah. They have lately
been arrested upon complaint filed against
them by Samson Boris. who married a daugh-
ter OF George Brown. Sr. Brown. his sons.
Boris. and others composed one OF tho most
daring and murderous organizations that ever
infested the Texan frontier. The complaint
charges them with fourteen murders. The ex-
posure Of the Browns was brought about as fol-
lows Jesse was the chief Of the clan. and gave
orders which woro as binding as an oath. qnd
whatever he commQndcd must be done. They
were organized under the pretence OF putting
down lawlessnoss and crime. jesse was mar
ricd, ana no and his wifo had a dispute
which resulted in their separation. Tho wo-
man tJesse's wifcl knew the secrets OF the
lodge. and Jesse said that she knew too much.
and that she must die fOrtho safety OF the clan.
IL seems that Mrs. Brown and BOrrs's wife
were very intimate: and SO Jesse gave orders
point the cXecutQners Of the wOmcn-one his
own wifo and the other his sister. He ap-
pointed Samson Boris TO take tho life of his
tJessc'sl wife, and some other member Of the
party To take the life Of BOrrs's wife. But be-
Tor" the timo appointed to murder tho women,
Boris revoltcd aga inst bcing the participant in
such deed. So he secretly sought out tho
authorities, and caused the arrest of his father
in-law and his threc hrOtncrs-in-law. Recent
developments show that they were guilty Of
fourteen murders. Young George has had his
trial and was found guilty and sentenced to De
hanged, but has appealed his cas-" TO the Su.
prene Court Of the state. Geo. Brown. Sr and
the other sons are to be- tried tins month.

THE government is paying attention
to those outrages OH the Mexican from
tier again, and Congress will shortly be
asked to take hand in the game.
Gov. KELLoGG's message shows that
his administration has largely reduced
taxation in Louisiana, and that free col
ored labor is adding annually to the re-
sources of the state. The labor which
produces the wealth of the state is large
ly detrauded by violedce of the free ex-
ercise of its political rights.
Mr.. HOLLY, the water works man, has
devised plan of heating towns by steam.
just as they are now lighted with gas
and supplied with water. This will be
one of the grandest improvements OF the
day, both on the score of convenience
and cleanliness, and perhaps Of economy,
and we do not see why it is not practical
bic.
SOME changes in the color of postage
stamps is announced-that of the three
centers, especially, they being difficult to
cancel. There will be an improvement
in the adhesive compound used; with
the new preparation the stamp, once
moistened and put upon the envelope,
cannot be removed. This method seems
likely to prove check upon dishonest
messenger boys and others.
IT is not often that State officer re-
tires with better record or better rep
utation than Land Commissioner Clapp
can show He found the affairs of the
Land Office, four years ago, in disorder
ed condition, theacconnts in bad shape,
and many acres of valuable State land
fraudulently conveyed away. Under his
Strengthened out, the affairs of the office
reduced TO system, many of the lands
of which the State had been defrauded
have been restored, large amounts of
money recovered from trespassers, and
checks put upon future frauds. His adj
illustrations throughout has been hon
est, thorough, and vigorous and able. and
he retires with tho good will of all honest
taxpayers. He has had valuable assist
ance in his work from his deputy, Mr..
Bowen, and from the State Trespass
Agent, Mr.. Evans.
Northern tribune. [volume] (Cheboygan, Mich.) 1875-1885, 1877-01-13

rated companies in regard to specific
taxes. and states that, while the ordinary
property holder pays taxes to the amount
OF about 81 on the 500, telegraph COM
panies pay but % cents, street railways
but % cents, other railroads q cents
and upon their own valuations at that. Ii
these species of property paid taxes on
the same basis as other property they
would pay s2,0O0.O00 annually, instead OF
$4O5,OOO. No system of taxation IS just,
fair and equitable that does not tax all
property exactly alike.
The Governor suggests the consolida-
ton of judicial circuits and ar increase
of salaries of the judges and gives it as
his opinion that there are some of the
circuit judges who do not have half
enough to do, and that by consolidating
some of the districts the salaries might
be increased without any very great adj
ditional expense to the state.
He says that in the county of Manitou
the laws of the state and United States
are violated with impunity; there is no
safety nor protection to persons or prop
erty. No courts have been held for years,
The county offices are vacant large
portion of the time. There is no Jail.
Debts cannot be collected by process of
law, nor are any of the forms of law
complied with. The Governor recon-
mcnds that the county organization be
discontinued and the territory be attach
ell to the county of Charlevoix.
He states that the liquor license law
has already closed 1000 saloons and put
a million dollars i'll the treasury. An
amendment is suggested restricting the
treasurer and sheriff to certain number
of days in which the tax must be collect
ed. Officers neglecting their duties under
this law should be removed.
In number of counties the law has
not been fully enforced, among which
are some of the leading counties in the
state, but that upon the whole, the law
has resulted in greatly decreasing arrests
for drunkenness. He recommends that
the sale of liquors be prohibited on cleo
ton day and after IL o'clock at night.
Drug and confectioner stores. where
| liquors are sold. should also. be thinks.
be brought under the provisions of the
tax law. With these amendments. he
belives the law will prove more produc-
tive of good to the people
The message is a very comprehensive
document and from it much might be
learned of our state. The Governor,
during his administration, has carefully
looked after every interest Of the state,
and will be classed among her most eff
ficien5 public servants, and his manage
menL of the affairs of the state govern
ment compare favorably with that CT any
of his predecessors.
