The ANNUAL LEvY-Rate Of Tar
alton Reduced from, Ninety Four 10
Ninety Cents.-The last touches were
placed upon the Levy List for this
year on Wednesday.
The present commission RS have
done remarkably well. They found
the county heavily indebted, and. at
the risk Of mourning unpopularity,
they at once set about making provi-
sion for deficiencies to the end that
the wonted financial standing Of the
county might be replaced. To effect
this praiseworthy object, it was found
necessary to impose heavier burden
upon the people-not cheerful step
by any means.
But it was done, and the object
sought achieved. The county is nom.
inally back at the point where they
found it. while really it is far better
off than then. This is set forth by
the fact that, having provided for all
ordinary erigencies until making
the levy next year, they will leave
no debt to embarrass their successors.
This, be it remembered, to be added
to the merit of accomplishing re-
duction of over 81 900 Of taxation
altogether an administrative record
to be proud Of.
The News summarizes the levy a.
follows:
Contingent fund, $7,s21S9; county
commissioners, 100000; court house
and jail fund, $4,000; jury and witness
fund, $l5 ,3s9,17; sheriff's feoe, $5,sSS.12 /;
magistrates, $9,00l SO; road levies, $500;
outside pensioners, $3,56767; orphans
court 81 1924; special road and bridge
levies, $3.50; amshouse, $5,90O.Sl; con-
stables. s., 1914; clerks office, $3,7O5,29 {;
appropriations to corporations. $500 /;
collectors commissions, $500; States
attorney, $4,000 public schools, 1874 900 &;
miscellaneous, including appropriations to
newspapers, $2,32O.4s.
The contingent fund is over $4,000
less than last year; tho public school APP
preparation 81, 100 more. The appropria-
ton to the trustees of the almshousc COW
ers an increase of about $1,000 over last
year and also a deficiency The amount
of the levy is $4,697 less than last year.
WAITING FOR THE EcLIpsE.-One
of the most estimable families i'll town
ataid up to see the lunar eclipse.
They fixed themselves comfortably,
and eheerlully awaited the appointed
hour. Midnight came; then one
o'clock, but no eclipse. what in the
world is the matter" on, was about
to ask, when another exclaimed
"there it isl" This, however, was
either an optical illusion, or cloud
let passing over the lunar disk; most
likely the latter. Two o'clock had
the solar system gone awry, or had
the astronomers miscalculated? Nov
there it is, sure r Another cloudlet.
And so the exhibition and tho audi
ence went on until, late in the night,
the latter, like the attendants at the
burial of Sir John Moore, SLOWLY and
sadly laid" themselves ito rest"
Come to find out: the eclipse took
place Saturday night; our esteemed
friends postponed looking at it until
Sunday night

Success.

The wonderful success which has at
tended the introduction of DR.. Whites
Dandelion Alternative, is doubtless due
to the fact that it an honest medicine,
and will perform all that is claimed for
it, and DR.. White must certainly have
great confidence in his medicine, for he
authorizes all druggists to sell it under
positive guarantee, such as is given on
no other medicine in the market. 1t is a
specific for billiousness, liver complaint,
fever and ague, dyspepsia, kidney dis
ease, rheumatism, and constipation of
the bowels, and as blood purifier and
renovator, it is positively unequaled.

A SPECIAL Washington telegram to the
Chicago InterOcean says so much has
been said about the contributions of star
route contractors to the Republican
campaign fund in Indiana that inquiry
has been made, with the result, it is
found, that their contributions were not
heavy. If Brady promised to raise $685.
600 among them, as has been alleged, he
did not carry out his promise. The facts
are these: Before the Indiana election,
when the Republican campaign was low,
a circular letter was prepared at the
headquarters of the Congressional CON-
mittee. Copies Of this letter was sent to
thousands of people, whom it was sup
posed would contribute, and among
Others were included several who are
known as star route contractors. But
they did not she'll out as copisouly as has
been represented. As matter Of fact,
the committee received but three sub
scriptions from them. one man giving
5000 and two others $4,000 each. The
plan to appeal especially and sepa-
rately to the star route contractors was
objected to by an Official high in author
ity, who said it would not do. The OBJ
lection urged to contributions from this
class of persons was that in view of the
scandal which had grown up under
Brady's management, contributions
from that class of persons would involve
the Republicans in complications. The
boasts, therefore. of the star route peo
pie that they made large contributions
are untrue. The total contribution here
was as have been given.

from the wheat fields. CO0l-headed men
in Minnesota are predicting large yield

A SPECIAL election will be ordered in
South Carolina to elect a member of
Congress in place of O'Connor, deceased,
as the Governor of the state holds that
O'Connor was legally elected last fall.
Mackey, Republican, who ran against
OConnor contested the seat, claiming
that he was elected. As the district is
Republican, Mackey's friends advise
him to make the race again, believing
that he could be so plainly elected as to
avoid a contest, and that this plan would
be easier and cheaper than to make the
contest. The Democrats held that o. Con-
nor's popularity with the colored voters
elected him, and they have expressed
doubts of finding another man who could
carry the district. 1t is announced now
that the Democrats intend to run Camp
bell, a lawyer, and Democrat who sup
port Garfeld's administration and will
make his race on the pledge to support
it in Congress. Owing to the nearly
equal division Of the two parties in the
next House, one seat is valuable and the
indications are that both parties will
strain every nerve to get this seat.

THE Detroit Post and Tribune recalls
the fact that twenty years ago, when the
Republicans first obtained control of
the United States Senate, dead lock Oc-
Cured similar to the present one, but
of much less duration. The Republic
cans attempted to remove the old officers
and elect new. Then, as now, the DEM
ocrats resisted, insisting that the extra
session was called for specific purpose,
and that the Senate should not be reor-
gsnized until the regular session in
December. On March 22d, 1861, Senator
Hale, of New Hampshire, offered a reso-
luton that the Senate should the next
day proceed to the election Of sergeant
alarms, door-keeper and assistant door
keeper. When the resolution was called
up the next day, Senator Bright,
Of Indiana, moved that its consid-
Grafton be postponed till the first
Monday in December. This was defeat
ed, and the resolution was taken up for
consideration by party vote of % to 10.
Notions to postpone and to 60 into exec
ltive session were made and lost. The
Democrats gave notice that they should
persist in making dilatory motions, or
leave the Senate without a quorum if
the resolution was pressed. The struggle
lasted through the 25th, when all but
ten of the Republicans voted with the
Democrats. and the regular business
was proceeded with. No other attempt
was made to change the officers, and they
held their places until the opening Of
the regular session in December follow
ing.

says he has endeavored to avoid forming

until the investigation is completed and
Mr.. Brady has been heard in his own be-

The Senatorial deadlock has left in
Office certain bonded officers of the
treasury department whose terms of
Office have expired; and, while these
officers still continue to perform their
duties, they are acting without giving
any bonds to secure the government in
case of defalcatiOn or loss. For example,
the term of Office of the assistant
treasurer of the United States at San
Francisco expired some weeks ago. He
still continues to perform the duties. but
the term for which his sureties are bound
having expired, the government is oblig-
ed to trust entirely to his honesty and
vigilance for the safe keeping and honest
disbursement of millions of dollars of
public money in his possession.
