Double Taxation,
West Randolph Herald. |

The farmers of Vermont have suffered Il
long time from the burden of double taxa
ton. But SO ancient an evil was beyond
the power of this Legislature to remove.
The constant sight of it as an ever present
factor in our civil system had so perverted
the judgment of some that they saw only
good coming out of this great evil, And
hence the injustice remains. Only matters
of minor Importance gained hearing.

Noyember,s Fire Record.

The fire losses for November in the
United States and Canada are figured in
the New York Commercial Bldlctup at
$500, 600, which is largely in excess of the
average November fire waste since the
Boston fire OF 1872. Thus far, this year,
the Il months fire loss is computed TO be
SOL 600, 600. with December still to be
heard from-and yet, the waste by fire in
1884 is some Sl0,O0O,OOO in excess ofprevious
average records There were l12 Novem-
Der fires, whose reported loss was $40, 900
and over. The fires of 100000 and more
numbered 49, and foot up 5000, 900, nearly
40 per cent of the November fires 1t
looks as if the year would give an aggre-
gate fire loss of at least Sll000 600.
