This morning about Il o'clock little Ruth Coleman was playing with pair of scissors, when she stumbled and fell striking on the points of the sci; sors which entered her left breast and and struck her rib and glanced along
 the rib narrowly missing her Leart. Medical assistance was at once called, and the little sufieTer made as com fortable as possible The attending physician states that there is no dan ger now. and that she will be all right as soon as the wound heals. MT. and Mrs. Coleman have the sympathy of the entire community, as little RutA is a sweet child and liked by all who know her We hope to see her smi.- ing face around again in short time.

That School Tax.

HIaslt School Tax.
 EDITOR DAILY TOMBSTONE :-Grea- Heavens! Will we never cease to De taxed. Just as we are recovering from an attack, brought on by an overdose of city and county taxation, we are thrown into relapse by the Board oI School Trustees, who popose a special tax, in order to carry on the schools for another year.
 We are willing to pay four per cent. to support the county government, as well as city tax of one per cent. and an extra license tax of double that amount; but the proposed tax of one per cent. to educate lot of brats in which we have no interest and to whom we are no kin, we protest against. Taxation without represen- tation" is no go in this country and we shall vote down any proposition to be taxed to educate another mans children, while we have none of our own.
 Perhaps the most outrageous pro position of Willis and Bagg is to use Q part of the requisite amount-say four or five hundred dollars for the purpose of building 8 fence around the school house and planting trees. Have we not already spent several hundred dollars in planting trees around the court house and building fences? Why then should we be taxed again to ornament school yard for the benefit of a pack of bowling hyenas who are too young to ap- preciate any of natures handiwork?
 Down with the tax we say! Let the people who have the misfortune to possess children send them to private school and pay for their education themselves. Close up the school. It is q useless expense to the district Take the money that is yearly ex- pended for the education of the chil- dren and pay it in increased salaries to our overworked and under paid city and county officials.
 To be sure Yickers, Woods, and 1 Springer, couldn't discount any more vouchers. But then Vicl.ers can raise insurance rates; Wood the gas bills, and Springer-well, Springer never gets left 3n any proposition.
 We understand the teachers have gone so far as to object to sitting on wooden bottom chairs that costa dol ar apiece, while Judge Peel takes his ease in 2 black walnut revolving ;hair costing ten times that amount. The objection cannot be sustained however, inasmuch as they wear 'ustles and the judge does not.
 Vote down the tax and if the eachers do not want to wsrk without 'ay--iet them resign. There are any lumber of tramps coming to town Vho will teach for merely board and lothes. Economy is the prevailing senti- nent among the people. Let it com hence with the schools.
 No TAX.

It seems to be no trick to some

stories about persons selling

to prejudice voters against acting
in accordance with their honest
convictions. Such stuff originates
only in brains diseased or scared
by long years of degrading and
dishonest operations, and all it
amounts to in an intelligent COM

The farmers should not forget that
last spring Gov. Foraker sent a mes
sage to the Legislature advising that
body to provide for a reappraisement
of the farm property of the State with
a view of making the valuation higher
and thereby raise a greater amount Of
taxes from that species of property. A
bill was introduced by a Republican
member to bring about this increased
taxation of the farmers and this bill is
still pending. If the Republican State
administration and Bob Kennedy's
Legislature are endorsed at the polls
this fall the bill will pass and become a
law. But if the farmers will rebuke the
high-handed and infamous doings al
Columbus last winter by their votes on
the first Tuesday of November, these
Republican conspirators against the
agricultural interests of the State will
be so discouraged that they will aban-
don their Infamous scheme. This is q
matter that should be carefully con
sidered by the farmers when they cast
their ballots at the coming election.

And Ia to be Preferred to Their En-
dorsement!

From the Eaton Register, Sept. 80, 1861
In last weeks Register we briefly
adverted to the Democratic prac-
tice in this county of nominating
q full ticket, without any hope, or
even wish to elect it. 1t is done
merely to furnish trading material
with a view of now and then slip
ping one or two party pets into Of
flee. 1t is not alone the preferred
candidates that barter and sell
"talesmen" on the ticket. The lit
tie dapper boss often tries his
hand on a dicker, and has been
known to sell himself and his
whole party in a lump, in order to
put money into his own pocket.
This appears to be about the only
way in which he can make any
thing out of the "~niggardly, Plea
YUNIsH, and LOUSY" party. His
method is jobbing while the can
didates do a retail business, sell
ling out a colleage for a vote here
and there.
In the present campaign it is
quite apparent that the Gang who
arranged for an Reclamation tick
ct" had no purpose that any effort
would be put forth to elect any
thing but Auditor and Sheriff.
Robbins and Jones were to be
cared for and all others thrown
overheard in their behalf. The
%"little boss" having latterly found
out that these preferred owners of
the party for this turn were likely
to prove more than they can carry,
has left Robbins out in the cold
and concentrated his efforts for
Jones only. His p~ecuniary inter
est in the Sheriff is much larger
than in the Auditor. Of all his
friends he loves himself the best,
and never permits friends or poll
tics to come between him and the
almighty dollar. For that he is
ready to sell his friends, his party
and himself. Of course for pru.
Dental reasons he keeps up a show
for Robbins and the ticket, talks
swears, smokes and drinks for and
with him, and at the same time is
ready to give Dove a vote to gel
one for Jones. Robbins is a clever
fellow, and though we greatly de
sire he should be beaten, we dis
like to see him slaughtered in his
own house by protested friends
by being traded off to benefit one
whose election is expected to pu1
moneyin Gould's pocket.

Editor of Democrat:-We have
read an article in last weeks Reg
lister in which it is asserted that
votes for Dove for Auditor, are be-
ing traded for votes for Jones for
Sheriff, and that the editor Of the
DEMOCRAT is the principal "bro-
ker" in the scheme. We desire to
say for the information of our
friends and in justice to you, that
the article referred to is the first
and only intimation we have had
that any such trading was going
on, or being proposed, and we are
fully convinced that the whole
substance of that article is utterly
false, and only exists in the fertile
brain of the writer.
