INDIGNANT REPUBLICANS.
They Pass Resolutions Condemning Isaa
n. Grnbb for Neglect.


A crowded meeting of indignant Re-
publicans was held at Republican head
quarters. Seventh and Market streets
last evening, to discuss and take action
on the neglect of the Levy Court TO
promptly place the duplicate tax lists in
the hands of the county collectors.
Fred +. Bach presided. He explained
the purpose of the meeting and stated
the situation. The work of making the
tax duplicates had been done by the clerk
of the peace as quickly as possible, and
although there was no law to prevent the
collectors from taking the books, and IL
had been customary for other collectors
TO do so. Messrs. Dougherty and Mckee
refused to touch them until the signature
of Levy Courtman l. N. Grubb had been
affixed. Through Mr.. Grubbs stubborn
ness or indisposition he had not yet
signed the books. A committee called
upon Mr. Grubb yesterday and he de
clared he was sick and had not been able
to go to Wilmington.
H. +. Pickles, Solomon Hersey, Francis
S. Bradley, A. s. Feaster, w. p. Voshell
and others made fervent speeches, advis.
ing Republicans to 60 TO the collector
office in force this afternoon and to night,
when the books are expected to be ready
and demand the right TO qualify, make a
demonstration that would be needed as
an expression of public sentiment.
David +. Buckingham offered the fol
lowing resolutions, which were adopted
amid applause:
"Whereas, BY the neglect or refusal
OF one Of the committee OF the Levy
Court, Isaac N. Grubb, to sign the tax
duplicates for Wilmington hundred, the
citizens Of this city are unjustly deprived
of their right TO pay their taxes ant
qualify themselves for registration, with
out which they cannot exercise the right
to vote at the city election, June /
therefore be 1t
Resolved, That such action on tn,
part Of this member of the Levy Court
Committee meets with our unqualified
condemnation, and we call on all goot
citizens TO aid us making such conduct
so disreputable that it will never occur
again In this community
Resolved, That as citizens OF VIII
mington we demand that those who wisl
TO pay their taxes shall have the oppor
tunity to do so; and we call upon thu
press and citizens to make every effort 4
compel those whose duty it is to receive
the taxes to give everyone chance Il
pay who may so desire.
Previous to adjournment meeting
was called, to be held at Republican
headquarters this evening at o'clock.

The great thought OF the leaders OF the

OF imported commodities OF n kind
produced at home would give pro
lection 10 the home lndnhlIleh,
This was O mistake, for the granting OF

thus favored The principles which
distinguish between q tariff Tor revenue
and tafltt for protection arc radical

separated into two parts one part 10 he

DR., WILBUR, THE sPEoIALIsT
His Unboundod Success,

On April eth that celebrated surgeon
and physlcian, Dr. Wilbur, who has
been stationed at the Huri0rd hotel In
this city for the past month, viii leave
for Beaver Falls, aud IL Is but q Just
tribute TO this gentleman that o brief
outline Of the record he has established
In this city and surrounding country
should be given TO the public. To say
that he has performed miracles does
not half express the many wonderful
cures he has made Each day, and
even unto a late hour Of the night, have
the weak, decrepit blind and manned,
the old and the young sought his Office
TO receive from his hands that which no
other skill save his has been able 10 re.
lieye, That many have been turned
away as incurable there Is no question,
but In many instances the most despair
ing have received at his hands that
relief for which they had so long
sought, but In vain. To say that he
had made the blind TO see, the lame TO
walk, the deiormod TO once more stand
up In perfect manhood, the decrepit
and manned to walk with renewed
ylgor and life, and inspired into the
hearts of many brighter hopes for their
future happiness, Is but adding 10 the
many praises he Justly deserves, for a
life spent in constant and deep re
searches into many hidden remedies,
that once brought TO light now gives TO
suffering humanity that assistance That
for 80 long they have called In vain.
That the world Is full Of those who
claim TO perform many cures, and IN
nearly every Instance fail, Is but too
well known, and II is for that reason, II
for naught else, that when n man is
battling against these barriers 80 nu.
merous as TO seem beyond human skill
to override them passes through and
over every obstacle and finds himself at
last as loudly praised by the multitude
rs they would hurl nc the heads OF the
preteLders their curses that he Justly
merits every encomium Of praise that
true manhood can bestow upon him.
Coming TO our city stranger, unknown
TO this immediate section, save by the
few who had heard Of him In other
cities, DR.. Wilbur has endeared himself
TO the many hundreds TO whom he has
given such relief, and will leave behind
him a ho of friends who cheerfully
give utterance to every praise that y
given him. Besides all this, he will
leave living witnesses Of his wonderful
powers who heartily recommend him TO
| all who seek relief
