part played by Mr. Washburne during the Franco

notified not to issue any county war
rant to any one who owed poll tax
until the amount due was settled.
1t does not seem that any objection
could be raised to that action on the
part Of the Court. The poll-tax all
goes to the support Of common
schools. But few persons in good
health are really unable to pay one
dollar and fifty cents a year as tax,
and an independent man ought to be
ashamed for his name to appear in
the delinquent list. Here, in Haw-
kins county. there are two or three
thousand dollars due from polls to
the children of the county. Our
schools are sadly in need of the mo-
ney, and the men who owe it ought

would help immensely to run our

An End to shrinkage.

The New York Graphic sounds
the note ofreturniag confidence and
a revival of business in this wise :
The days of shrinkage are over. 1t
is safe now to purchase staple goods
or property of any kind, as there is
a certainty that the market from this
time forth, with slight exceptions,
will be a rising enc. Those who
take advantage Of present prices are
certain to reap a rich reward in the
not distant future. Do not buy trash,
nor is it wise as yet, to invest in real
estate. Real estate is the last kind
of fixed property to go down in val
ue, and it is also the last to feel the
effects Of rising market. There is
little prospect, therefore, that land
will be affected for the next year or
two. But we say to all who have
money: Buy Invest! Employ
labor The market hereafter is to
be a rising one! True, there may
be bank failures and heavy ones;
true, great corporations have yet to
go into liquidation true thousands
of business men, crippled by the
stupid financial policy we
have been pursuing, will not be able
to avert their downfall, even with the
aid of silver; but for those who are
not crippled, who have money in
hand, whose credit is unimpaired,
this is the time to lay the founda-
ton Of future fortune"
