Since it has come to be understood
that Europe is again encouraging a
a class Of people to emigrate because
they are not wanted at home, the
papers Of this country begin to pre-
test against indiscriminate immigra-
ton, and the Dallas Times, somewhat
ultra on all subjects, even says:
Every newspaper in the State has
for years been yelling to the emigrant
"come to this beautiful land" If they
had thought Blanton Duncan would
have listened to the call, it would
have been weak and low.

nearly double that of last year. There
was raised on the dollar OF the grand

taxes, and on the list of 1881 only IL
cents will be raised.
The Brattleboro list has not been

subject to revision. According to the
best judgment of the lister the Increase
in the grand list Wilt be from 40 to 80
per cent, or in the vicinity of S33, 900,
against S22, 900 last year.
The grand list of the town of Will

In 1880 the real estate in Grafton

of list of 1881 over that of 1880, $685.

| That the old tax law was a farce will
be shown by the facts: The Fall Noun

a difference in this one list of S15S,00O.
