INQUIRER.

EDITOR INTELLIaENcER;-In his
card of the lath inst, the collector
charges that the article he attempts to
answer, assumes that the money oollec-
ted by him was not turned over &C.
.cordang to tau, and in the same card
almost in the same breath as it were,
he says he "turned over to the county
treasurer the entire school fund and
$4,000 beside" When ? about the
Of February; admitting thereby
that there was no assumption, but
solid fact.
After that tacit admission he UNDER
takes to throw dust by contoundinq
the state with the county school fund,
as 1t there were any connection be-
tween them. The county collector has
nothing whatever 70 do with the state
school fund; it is paid direct into the
hands of the county treasurer and by
him disbursed, and the county collec-
tor has no more to do with it than he
has with the U. s. pension fund, and
any law changing the time of the ap-
portionment of the state fund does not
affect the county collector one iota, fol
the law requires him to pay over to the
county treasurer the amount collected
by him during the preceding month
on tor before the 18th Of the month
It is as plain, explicit and direct as the
English language can make it.

not right that such a candidate should

that a faithful servant will be governed

A GARD FROM JUDGE HARRISON,

EDITOR INTELLIaENcER:-As 1 am
informed that my card published in
your last issue seems to have been re-
garded by some persons as imputing
derelictiOn to the treasurer in payment
of school orders, l wish to say in
justice to him, that no basis for such
supposed charge existed.
l am satisfied that he has done his
full duty in the premises, and, when in
my card l stated If any district has not
money to its credit or has not received
its amount at as early a date as was de-
sirable the county collector could not
be blamed, it was not my intention
to leave the impression that the treas
urer could be blamed. l make this
statement to exolerate him, and that
nothing | have said may be construed
into a reflection upon his official con-
duct.
hope here and now to be permitted
to dismiss this. matter, and no more to
be found discussing the question in the
newspapers, as my time is otherwise
demanded in the proper discharge of
my duties. j. w. HARRISON,
Collector.

The mammoth railroad meeting held
in this place the 9th, was a success.
The proceedings of the day were as
follows: At 9 O'Clock a. M, the can
mons were fired a number of times, and
then again at 10 O'Clock. From 10 to
II the cadets marched through tho
streets of the town, and were drilled
some, thus showing themselves to be
experts in handling the gun. Wonder
il they would not all run if a cowboy
should step into their midst and begin
firing? The NJ. S. U. Cadet Band
favored the by-standers with several
choice pieces of music. There are
eighty soldiers this year under the sup
ervision of Lieut.. CrOwder. The coun-
try people expressed themselves to be
much pleased with the performance of
the boys. From IL O Q O'Clock the
crowd were entertained in the opera
house by several able speaking men,
who thus convinced the farmers to vote
money in favor of the road. The stu
dents formed a conspiracy to run off
from school if they were not granted a
holiday OH this occasion. They did
not get to carry their conspiracy into

New York Sun:-'sIn his last contri-
button to the Sherman-Fry magazine
controversy, Gen. W. T. Sherman pro-
tested against the conduct of the news
papers in ascribing to dissatisfaction
with life in St. Louis his proposed re-
moval to New York. He explained that
this removal was wholly due to family
reasons, such as the dispensing of rela-
tives, the education of one member of
the family at Yale, and so on. And he
wound up by declaring himself entirely
content withmy neighbors and friends
of St. Louis, to whom l Am very much
attached, and who have done all they
possibly can to make our stay with
them agreeable Yet in his recent let
ter to Mrs. j. Anderson, of st. Louis
We find the following declaration,
which by no means agrees with the
foregoing:-I have been taxed heavily
by old union soldiers, aOAo are sent to
by meigh6ors or naturally come to
me in their distress. 1 believe l am
thus taxed S. to 81 paid by the most
wealthy citizens of St. Louis, and this

The strike on the Missouri Pacific

our coal operators there is not much
sympathy for him, but the innocent
are made to suffer with the guilty.

Mr.. VIM Milan, chief engineer Of the

ting the survey for his road from this

By the latter part of next week every

meeting in this county, to take place
on Thursday, April 8. This is a mat
ter which vitality interests every citizen
who lives within five miles of the pro-
posed route. Mr.. Waugh elsewhere
explains why it is necessary to secure
subscriptions, just as was done IN the
case of the G. & A. The directors OF
this road, who are our W people, in
terested with us, honest men whom we
can trust, tell us, if the $4,000 per
mile and the right of way is secured,
that the road can be built. Shall we
fail to do our part, and lose it? 1t
would undoubtedly be better if we
could get it without the subscription
but we cannot. The terms upon which
it is asked are safe and easy. Every
man who has real estate near the line
will more than make the amount asked
OF him, before he Is asked to pay it,

There should be no hanging back; and
