have committed, but before We 60 very
far, it is proper to ask what important
part of the law have they omitted to
carry out ? They Hre required to adver.
tiss that they will ait on certain days
and at certain hours in July to collect
the taxes due by all who may call upon
them. This they did do. That but
few called is no farlt of the collectors.
In addition to this, the collectors pub
licly gave notice which stood for weeks
and months, that they could be found at
their office at certain hours every day
and evening to receive taxes. This no
tice was entirely voluntary and gratui-
tous on their part and not even required
by law. Then was the time that voters
should have come forward and paid
their taxes, instead of waiting until the
last horn blows and then abuse the col.
lectors for not giving them an opportu-
nifty for paying their taxes. Whatever
may be said against the collectors for
not giving sufficient time for the pay
ment of taxes, it cannot be said that
they have shown any discrimination
in receiving taxes in the hour allotted
each day for that purpose. Democrats
and Republicans, white and black, men
and women have had to await their
turn and each served alike.
We think that by little more effort
tie collectors might have sat longer
and received more taxes, but they had
already overstrained the law, and when
they do that, what more can be re-
luired? The law is to blame more
han tte tax collectors, and Republi.
ans are to blame for their own disfran-
basement for not paying their tax at
he time set by law.

Con K ling DecIin0u.

Roscoe Conkling, after dAllying for
some time with the Supreme Court toy
thrown to him by President Arthur,
has seen proper to lecli ne the gift. The
appointment In the first place was Of
doubtful expediency and President Ar
thur was severely criticised for making
it. Nobody, however, doubted the
great legal ability of Mr. Conkling, and
sense of relief was experienced when
the appointment was made. first be-
cause the Supreme Bench did NOT snf.
fer by depreciation OF legal attain.
ments, and secondly, because it re.
moved Mr., Conkling from the active
arena of politics, which, through his &C
lions had become very much compli-
rattd. Mr.. Conkling by his declinatiOn
serves notice that he prefers the activi-
Of public life to the quiet retirement
Q a seat on the Supreme Bench. His
very atmosphere OF thought IS PARTISAN
ship. and he has but seldom looked at
any great question except with refer.
ence to its party bearings. Of late
Yeas he has even lost that degree of
breadth and liberality, required for the
success OF the parry to which he is at.
tached. 1t was hoped that as a Su-
preme Judge, he might attain position
wherein he had an opportunity of exer-
coiDg his great legal attanmentS with.
out being hampered with the little de.
tails of party action and party caprice.
Mr. Conkling, however, has quite a
d lfferent idea and his declination shows
that he has blocked out different road
to travel. We can only hope that that
road will lead to the unfcation of the
Republican party and the advance Of
Ii bora! and progressive thought.

II the Dover Bourbon gives such
startling evidences of such dangerous
phase Of negrophobia 30 soon at the
commencement of the campaign, there
is no knowing bow bad the disease may
become before the campaign is over
The black vomit stage is already
REACHED, and if there is not SON ething
done soon to soothe and allay its fears
1t will scarcely have strength left to
carry it safely throu h the coming con-
test Ever since Neal was tried before
the courts and by one of the ablest
Democratic States Attorneys the Sta,e
ever had, and acquitted by a jury
chosen in strict conformity to the law
OF the State, it has had no peace of
mind. Such q thing as a negro, &C.
cused OF a capital crime, escaping the
gallows had never entered its mind.
The custom had always been to hang
negroes whether guilty or not, whether
sane or insane, and this slight depar.
ture from that rule is what causes the
Dover Bourbon trouble. The news of
the late outrage near Odessa has stirred
up every unfavorabls nature of its
disease, and should the negro Redden
not be hung, that would be about the
last of the Bourbon. OF course a. the
case now stands everybody believes
kedden is guilty rascal, and if proven
guilty he will suffer the extreme pen.
Atty of the law, but that is not what
the Dover organ fears. 1t is afraid
Rsdden will escape the gsllows guilty
or not guilty. One negro has escaped,
another must not.
Another cause of the insane fury of
the organ is that its pi .eous wall of dis
tress meets with no hearty response
from the people once 80 easily stirred
BY the cry of "nigger. The cry OF
despair is wasted in the air. The PEG.
pie have become callous and hard
hearted. The tear fountain is dry.
The great public breast beaves not, and
the public heart quickens not its throbs.
Desolate and cheerless are the sur.
roundings. Such want of feeling.
such ingratitude was never before
known. We cannot help it. We
would cheer the Bourbon if We could.
We would ask it to lay aside its habil.
lments OF mourning, wash the ashes of
grief from its head and forget the dark
days OF the lash and slave pen and look
forward to a brighter future. But it
will not listen and we are compelled to
lot 1t alone in its misery and mad moss.
1t has it bad and no mistake.

uovrvo Rabies We're Mixed U.

Mrs. Wilson came into the city by .
late train one night last week from Belle.
vile. She had severa, children with her,
one of them . baby in arms, which
was snugly wrapped up in huge shawl
Another lady arrived from some point
West and WAS also the owner of baby.
The ladies placed their babies in the
waiting-rooa while they went to look
up their baggage. When they returned
they took one anothsr's baby, and the
lady from Belleviile drove to Parkdale,
and the lady from the West to the north
end of Yonge street. One Of the children
was boy and the other . little girl,
and We're put to bed hurried!y when
home was reached. The surprise to the
mothers may be imagined the next
morning, when apparently single
night had transformed the sex of their
babies. The children we're not "unmix-
ed" until Monday.

The Last Cnance.

The Levy Court meets today, and
according to law the county collectors
cah return their error lists IN the frs,
day of the court if they see proper, or
they can prolong the presentation of the
list II they see proper. Further &C
cording to law the list must lie over
hVe days without any action being
taken npon it, for the purpose of tax
payers examining it. One of the i'm.
portant duties of the Levy Court will
DO The examination of the assessment
1sts, and the names of all persons who
nave died or lett the State will be strick.
en- from the lists. 1t never was the in.
tentiop Of the law tn 1t the pames af
any other persons should be returned
~ errors. In olden times men were
assessed for the purpose of compelling
them to contribute something to the
support of the State government, but in
these latter days since Democracy has
obtained exclusive control of the State
the assessments have assumed a mar
tisan aspect and the object of the Demo.
crat party seems to DO to assess III few
persons as possible OF the opposite party
and If they are assessed to not hold the
collectors to very strict requirement
In the payment of their taxes. These
ueilnquents returned by the collectors
will oil be overhauled by the Levy
Court and if the taxes are not paid be
fore the error list is passed upon such
oellnquents will be stricken from the
assessment, and disfranchisement mus,
eDsue for one year. These taxes can
still te paid before the error list il
taken up and passed upon. 1t is not
likely that this list will be brought no
Tor action this week, perhaps not next
week, but to any person who has not
paid his taxes delays are dangerous
To-day the collectors will meet at the
usuaI place from to 5 O'Clock to re.
ceaVe taxes and probably at the same
hour all the week. Thi, will still give
an opportunity 10 workingmen t. pay
their taxes with only the loss Of a cou-
pie OF hours. There ara several hun.
dred Republicans in thu cirv who are
assessed and who have not paid their
taxes and who should embrace the
opportunity ctlered tor doing so
