Consumption. 1t is said that
$4,000 people die annually in the United
States alone from this disease. In some
sections of the country one death in every
thr. is from Consumption. This Can be,

cumulates in the throat and lungs. 1t al

to euppose he has some affection of the

year. The tax rate for this year is
County. 67t cents; State, 1871 cents

port $3.50. The school board gets
$35, 900, the same as last year" Re-
tsrring to the levy in another column
the lfttOs continues.
"The taxpayers will be gratifisd to
learn that taxes have been reduced
two cents on the $l00, and this not
withstanding the fact that the board
has met some extraordinary expenses,
particularly in the way of improve
ments at the county slmshouse, which
establishment is now in better condi-
tiou than ever before. aud under the
faithful and intelligent stewardship
of Mr.. James Reid is most admirably
conducted. In short. the equipment
and management of the almshouss is
credit to our county authorities.

but we are promised that the expense
Of Cleaning u the docket" so thor
oughly last spring will be to the pc
cuniary advantage of the county, as
expenses will be lighiened at the next
term or two.
"The troubled condition of things
at the mines when so many posses
were summoned by the sheriff and q
large number of writs issued, cost the
county good deal of money, but
thanks to the prudent management of
Sheriff Shuck there was no unneces.
sary expenditure.
"The board Of commissioners have
done well. If they had but held the
tax even with last years, before the
taxable basis had heeu cut down some
$500, 900 by the Comptroller, people
would have been satisfied in view of
the many extraordinary expenses, but
as it is they have reduced taxation.
The success Of the board in this mat
ter is greatly to their credit.
"They have worked hard, and in
their arduous labors have had most
admirable help from their attorney,
Mr.. Benz. A. Richmond, and their
clerk, Capt. L. T. Dewitt, and his as
sistant, Mr.. D. P. Miller"
