Local Debts and Tnxes.

When a man finds himself up 10 his eyes
in debt he knows that there is but one way
out. The first step is, OF course, to stop
making new debts TO pay as he goes. The
next, in time and in importance Is to
straighten out his accounts and ascertain
exactly how much he owes Debts, like
other dsngreeahle facts, must be looked
equarely in tho face. This done, he knows
Just what he has to do, and can set about
doing it iutcllgently. When a county or
town Is in the same prodicament, il must
follow the same plan. Any other will only
land 1t deeper in the qungmire..
