Decay of the Teeth

Arises from various causes, but principally
it may be attributed to early neglect or the
indiscrimiDate use of tooth powders and
pastes, which give q momentary white
ness to the teeth while they corrode the
enamel The timely use of that delicate
aromatic tooth-wash, Fragrant SOZO-
DON'T, will speedily arrest the progress of
decay, harden the gums, and impart de
lightful fragrance to the breath. 1t re-
moves those ravagcs which people sustain
in their teeth from the use of sweet and

To REDUCE the tax rate ten per
cent. in two years is great matter,
and our citizens who pay the taxes
will SO regard it. 1t matters a great
deal too who causes the reduction.
Democratic citizens will appreciate
the fact that the gentlemen whom
their votes sent to the Council effect
ed this reduction while persistently
opposed by the gentlemen elected to
the Council by the Republican party
politicians aided by seven hundred
negro allies who pay mere pittance
of the tax on real estate. These
seven hundred negro votes kept the
Democratic party out of power for
four or five years and enabled the
Radicals to run the city into the
Cool Spring Reservoir extravaganza
and the English Bull macadamiza-
ton of Fourth and French streets.
With little more economy in the
various departments we are yet in
hopes that the tax rate may be re.
duced in a year or two to 81 on the
$lO0, notwithstanding the opposition
of the Radical party and its mem
bers in Council, who can hardly be
styled representatives, for on tht
question of taxation they hav'
proved TO be misrepresentation.

1T is just about ten years since q
politician in the secrets of the Repub-
lican party in Delaware avowed that
it was necessary to give the negro the
ballot in order to out vote the 'Trish
Catholics" in the Middle States and
the "Rebels" in the South. They
never intended that the negro should
hold an Office of honor or profit in
Delaware. In the two lower counties
the Republican party organization
avoids contact with negroes by keep

JOSEPH YARNALL.

DECEPTION ADHERED To.-Dur-
ing the past six months, or since Janu'
ary, the Republican has constantly
maintained that the Democrats in the
Council were heaping up floating
debt which would be perhaps $40, 600
in July; that it would certainly be so
because these awful Democratic Coun-
cilmen had dared to reduce the tax
rate from about $1.25 to $1.15. Dur
ing the past week the RepuolicG" has
been so busy endeavoring to cover up
unpleasant things, that it has not had
time to repeat its assertions about The
certainty of the Council not being
able to run the city on $1.15. 1t will
not advance that hereafter, however,
since it has all at once discovered that
instead of having made floating
debt of $40, 900 to $s5, 900 the Demo
Gratis have a surplus of $25, 200, and
have actually reduced the tax rate TO
$1.10. 1t has not been able to show
the floating debt ; but convicts itself
of its numerous falsehoods in the fol-
lowing, from its edition of yesterday
"The City Coucil last night fixed
the tax rate at $1.10 10 the hundred
dollars for the year 1880. This is five
cents lower than it was last year.
This is caused by the overplus of
S23, 600 in the hands of the Board of
Education. Mr.. Rodney said that if
there had been no surplus, the tax
rate would be $1.20. We have always
contended that $1.15 was too low, and
even $1.20 will not allow any public
Improvements to be made"
The above extract is the reverse OF
the truth. The fact that the Demo
Gratis have reduced the tax to $l.10
and have been building new waite
pumps, and are building new build
ing for the accommodation of tn
Water Department and Surveying
Department, shows how false an,
unreliable the Republican can b.

Sherman GuiLJ0tines the Grant
Men.

A dispatch from Washington says:
The Grant men here are very
much disguised over recent official
decapitations of Federal officers in
the South who helped the Grant
boom along before the Chicago Con-
vention. One by one the heads of
these men have fallen under Sher-
mans guillotine until the adherents
of the ''old commander" feel at once
angry and sick at heart. To-day the
President appointed Sherman
striker, named Burke, to be Collec-
tor OF Customs at Mobile, Ala, vice
Robert Smith, an ardent Grant man
whose resignation was rendered or
asked a day or two after the Chicago
Convention. Mr.. Smith worked
with such ardor for Grant before the
convention that Sherman asked him
repeatedly to resign, but consented
with illy-concealed dissatisfaction
to let him remain in Office until the
struggle for supremacy at Chicago
was over. Then he ousted him un-
tremendously.
