Collection of Taxes.

To the Editor Of the NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
The recommendation Of Gov. Alger
for tho enactment of law similar to
the one now in In force in Ohio, for the
collection of all taxes semi-annually, is
a good ono. trust the present leglsla-
turs will promptly pass such an act and
that 1t will include the privilege Of pay
ing tho taxes. state, county, town. and
corporation, at the office of the County
Treasurer at any time during the month
of December and June, or to the respect
i've Township Treasurer on any Satur-
day during those months, The charge
of ten per cent upon dslinquen Is, recon-
mended by the Governor is too high and
would prove burdsnsOms to a majority
of taxpayers in the northern portions Of
the state. refer especially to the farm
ers who cannot pay their taxes until the
winter Is sufficiently advanced to enable
them to market their wood and other
farm products. Instead Of such penalty
| would suggest that the law provide, as
now, for the additional charge Of three
per cent collection fees during the month
CT January and after February list all
dslinq uents to be declared the privil-
eye of semi-annual payments, the en-
tire yearly assessment becoming due
and subject to the same penalties AS un-
der the present law.

Of tho D.. NJ. & M. railroad everything Is
at a stand-still. LAUNDERING around here
this winter is small, there being only
two camps in operation at present, own
cd by Loucks & Son. and employing
about 40 men. "A, P. McKinnon. of Che

Newberry on the Millecequin river. He
has $4,000 feet OF board timber and $780,
600 feet Of logs on the skids, and seems
to be getting along nicely. John Fitz-
patrick, who is at this camp, wishes to
inform his numerous friends in ChsbOy-
gan that his fever scare Is all over, and
he Is once more on deck. The Black
River Lumber Co. have four camps in
operation on Black River, AID expect to
bank about 100000 feet of logs. The
Mackinac Lumber Co. have i've camps
on Carp river, and calculate on 100000
feet as their winters cut. All the camps
on this side have quit cutting on account
of the deep snow, and consequently q
large reduction In their force OF employ
ees was deemed necessary.
Men are wanted at the different kilns
along the line to cut cord wood at star
walton prices.

These rascal liars know too that Senator

design of these rascals is TO iDjure the
