this accounts for his statement that, so far

bot offers to produce tangible evidence
that she was kindly received by Mr.. Spur

To the Editor Of The Appeal.
Among your 'local paragraphs" OF yes
tcrday's issue, find this extraordinary
item-extraordinary for its mis-statement
Of recorded facts.
"Thc city public school teachers have
not been paid for two months. 1t seems
that while the city pays seyen-eighths OF
the school tax, the country schools receive
seven-eiehths OF the amount when il comes
to the allotment. Strange it is, but never
theless true"
The dictator or writer Of that paragraph
could not have had the correct figures on
which 10 base such statement, else he
never would have riskcd his reputation
on IT,
The aggregate property valuations OF the
ten wards OF the city, which have taken
from the tax books 1.-THE only correct source

1900, 000 the same for the eighteen dis
iricts was q little under S70O0,00O. Total
in round numbers say about 10000, 900.
Hence the people living in the districts
pay on their property there seven-twenty-
sxths Of the taxes, or more than one
fourth. That alone In moro than double
the amount your local intimntes they pay.
| And II you will add 30 the $1,000, 000
