An Outrageous Assault upon am Editor.

An OutrngeOus Assault upon am Editor.
About half-past nine o'clock at night, at
Corunna, Mich, a gang OF from twelve to
fifteen persons, masked and otherwise dis
guised, assaulted John N. Ingersoll, editor
OF the Mtda0assee ADserican, published at
Corunna, while on his way to his home.
Ingersoll says it was the evident intention
OF the assailants to furnish him with asuit
of tar and feathers. He says he stoutly
fought them off until A. G. Edwards came
to his assistance, when they also beat him
over the head, eyes and face with stones or
similar weapons. Judge McCurdy and
other neighbors, hearing the noise, were
soon upon the ground, when the gang dis
persed in all directions. Most of the
assailants were disguised in female apparel.

MATTERS TO BE CONSIDERED BY
THE Town VoTERs.-Next Tuesday
is town meeting day, and the adj
vice the TINES gives is to vote low
taxes and elect good men to manage
them. Under the law as It now
stands no town order can be issued
for any purpose unless the tax roll
is in the hands of the town treasu1 err,
or the money in the treasury. AS
neither of these conditions prevail
at this time, and as the situation
in this respect will not change be-
fore next December at least, moth.
ing can be gained by voting a large
tax with the expectation that the
levy can be drawn against during
the Summer, and orders issued to
pay for labor or current expenses.
If any work should be done by the
board it cannot be paid for before
the latter part of next December,
and few laboring men can afford to
wait for their pay so long, and then
take their chances Of getting paid
at ali. Again, the law prevents the
issuing of two or three dollars in
orders to pay debt of one in cash;
so that if a man works for a dollar
a day all he can get is an order for
one dollar. And so it is for salaries
Of officers, supplies for the poor, etc.;
the bills must not be doubled or
trebled. All transactions must be
for cash, or on cash basis.
Therefore whatever town taxes
are LEVIED must be collected in cash;
and this should be carefully borne
in mind by the voters. Every man
Of sense here knows that a dollar in
cash will go about as far towards
meeting expenses as three or four
dollars in orders; and be also knows
that 1T is great hardship to have to
pay a heavy tax in cash. And non
resident tax payers will rebel
against high taxes with greater en-
ergy in the future than in the past.
They are watching matters here
closely, and will submit to no fur
Their imposition. When we say
this we know whereof we speak.
So that if the intelligent voter
and tax payer here consults even
only his own interest all around, his
voice will be raised for retrench-
ment and low figures on Tuesday.

known, resided in Superior in 1867,

We understand the proposition
is to levy a town tax of $4,000 or
$4,000 at the town meeting on Tues

can't see why tax of this size
should be raised. To get right
