question, reyolutionize the present sys-
TEN of saving life on the coast. There
need be no trouble hereafter in launch
ing the surf-boats, and the motor used

recurring an hour or two to reach

lutely without danger, when this ma
chine is put into general use."
The "sea.wagOn," as the inventor
has named it, is composed entirely OF
iron and steel, except the small triangu-
lar platform at the top, on which those
who work it will stand. The wheels,

meter, are Of steel, and are placed at
the points of a triangle, each side Of
which Is tweDty.four feet at the top.
The frame is a skeleton, the iron being

sistance to wind and waves as possible.
The inventor expects the toughest seas
to break through it without doing the
least damage to the machine.

THE MOTIVE POWER.

is by the working Of two levers at the
top platform. These levers each have
two steel rods, which lead down to the
front wheels OF the tricycle., the tires OF
which are notched. A shoe on the end
of each steel rod catches in these
notches and propels the machine
by the moving up and down OF
the levers. The rods are so
placed on the lever that, while
one is going down for fresh grip, the
other is pulling upward. BY this
means the motion is continuous, and
the rate at which two men are expected
to be able to move it through the water
is three miles an hour-as fast as the
average gait of walking. The third or
hind wheel acts like caster, and,
swinging on q pivot, follows the leading
wheels Of the tricycle., which is steered
by the levers.
Very few vessels are wrecked II
twenty or more feet Of water, and if the

as to be extended from the top is placed

mount to the rallied platform, bu

A Wild Family Captured.

TOPEKA, Kan, Sept 6.-For several days
parties have been searching Parsons
creek, Washington county, for four persons
known as the wild family, consisting of a
man, woman, girl, aged about fifteen, and a
child. The search has just ended in the cap
ture of the entire family. Tho man and
woman have black hair on their faces, AMI
the man much hair on the body. The hair
on the girls face is very fine. The color of
the faces of all is ashy gray. They can not
talk. but the woman makes a peculiar noise
something like n grunt or u groan which
the girl seems TO understand. On the top Of
the heads of tho man and woman are slight
evidences that they have been scalped- Ths
opinion prevails that they scaiped by
Indians years ago. became insane, and have
wandered IN the woods ever since.

$1,000 Surplus.

Ii was stated yesterday that, after pay
ing all obligations, the surplus in the
county treasury, for the fiscal year end
ing September LIST, would be s., 900.
This condition of our county treasury
speaks Well for the financial management
of our county affairs. The county owes
nothing, pays cash, and is every way in
prosperous condition. It's credit is
above par. Taxes are low, and will be
reduced still lower at the next meeting
of the Board of Comfy Commissioners.
There are neither floating nor funded
obligations outstanding
This favorable condition is the result
of good management. SURPRISES come
from saving. and it is by the exercise of
economy that we are enabled to save.
Our board of commissioners have, on all
occasions, practiced the most vigilant
care and cut Off on expenditures wher-
ever it was possible.
This has not been done at the cost of
efficiency in our county affairs, for it is
conceded on all hands that Putnam
county is one of the best governed in the
State. Our criminal expenses have in
creased somewhat, but to no such extent
as in many of the other counties. Our
school expenses have also increased, but
that is expected. These two items will
probably continue to increase each year.
But, on the other hand, the expenses in
the other departments have decreased
compared to the volume of business
transacted.
We are indebted to the Democratic
The Palatka daily news. (Palatka, Fla.) 1884-1888, 1886-09-09
Reduce the State Taxes.

The Democratic party is opposed, on
principle, to accumulated SURPRISES.
The great surplus in the National treas
ury is the result of unfair and unjust
taxation, and the Democratic party is
pledged to see that it shall not be in
creased. by reducing the amount of rev.
enue. There is no doubt about the posi-
ton of the party on this subject.
National, State and county taxes
should all be reduced. The rate of taxa
ton in Florida should be cut d, wn.
There is a surplus in the treasury, and
at least one mill could be cut off the
coming fiscal year. As there is a dispo-
sition to reduce taxes among the counties
Of the State, particularly In this county,
the State authorities should take action
also in the same 'rection. Let us do
away with SURPRISES. collect only enough
money to pay the current expenses of the
county and State, economically admin
istered, and leave all else in the hands of
the people. We have no right to collect
a dollar hey onG our actual necessities.

party for this suIplns and favorapie

Gratis came into power, although Putnam
was in much better shape than most
other counties, they found high taxes,
debts and deprecated paper. This has
all been done away with, and healthy,
ORDERLY condition of things now exist In
their stead. We have good government
an orderly and settled society, and life
and property are as safe as in any other
mart of the county. Business is better,
people are more prosperous, greater en-
terprises are going forward, and wealth
and money are greatly on the increase.
There lis a more settled and contented
feeling among all classes, laborers inclu-
ded. Prejudice has died out and conf
dence everywhere exists. People from
all sections enjoy the greatest liberty OF
speech and action, and no man is re-
strained in any legitimate purpose. There
is the greatest federation in political faith,
and men are at liberty to vote as they
please.
L
Iitical liberation, good faith, good gov
eminent enforcement of the laws, Sc
curity of life and property, economy in
all public matters, and a lofty aim to
serve well and faithfully the people.
Putnam county, in its public affairs, pre-
sents the most gratifying results. The
Democratic party is justly entitled to the
honor of securing them, and, having
faithfully served the people, should he
continued in control.
The contest now going on III the
county is for the future as we'll as for the
present. If the Republicans should sue
coed this fall, they may also succeed in
the general election under the new Con-
stitution. This is not, therefore, an ''off
year" To us, hut one that involves the
question of good local government in the
immediate future.
Democrats and conservative citizens
generally should bear this in mind, and
work earnestly for the success of our
party nominees this fa'. The Demo-
cratic party of this county presents u
good record--one that all can approve,
and which should be followed up for the
security and prosperity of all.

NEW YORK, Sept. This has been
the greatest yachting day that New
York has ever seen, and another day of
glory for Boston, for her latest and pref
test product of naval architecture, the
sloop yacht Mayflower, has won the
first race of the international series
against her powerful antagonist the
British cutter Galatea, with a steady
whole sail breeze from the southwark.
permitting each to carry al her light
sails. The Galatea was beaten II min
utes, 40 seconds, actual time, or II
minutes, seconds, corrected time, the
aytiower having given her IS seconds
time allowance, according to the New
York Yacht Club rules, under which
the races are sailed.
The contest was eminently fair for
both yachts, inasmuch as half the couI az
sailed over gave almost all windwari
work, while the other half was with
free sheets. Although the cutter was
defeated, she has shown herself To- be Il
faster yacht than the Genesta in "A light
breeze, and ons that may he very hard
to defeat in a strong breeze and sea way.
1t has been a day of great excitement,
such as is seldom seen in New York.
From dawn till dark, afloat or ashore,
in hotel, club, or on Change, the yacht
race was the leading topic of conversa
ton.
