THE SUN CUP.
The earth is The cup o. the sun.

The earth is the cup OF the sun,
That he fliieth at morning with wine.
With the strong. warm wine of his might
From the vintage of gold and of light
Fills IL, and makes it divine
And at night, when his journey is done
At the gate Of his radiant hall
He setteth his lips to the hrim,
With long last look Of his eye.
And tilts il, and droineth IL dry
Drains till he leayeth it all
Hollow and empty and dim.
And then, as he passes TO sleep,
still full OF the feats that he did
Long ago 10 Olympian wars,
He closes it down with a sweep
OF his slow turning luminous lid,
Its cover Of darkness and stars,
Wrought once by Ieph@stus Of old
With violet aud vastness and gold.

Manager Soulier of the Grand Opera
House, and Edgar Bayne, treasurer OF
that place Of amusement, gave an exhi-
bition last evening that was as
exciting as it was disgraceful.
At twenty minutes of S o'clock 4
goodly crowd was in line, PURCHASING
tickets for After Dark, when suddenly
the line was blocked and angry
voices were heard inside The
box Office. Several oaths interspersed
the disorder. Women thought some one
was getting murdered. Manager Soulier
pushed Treasurer Bayne into q corner
and pummeled him. Then the door was
opened and Bsyne shot out into the lobby.
No bones were broken.

SPEAKER REED may explain and apollo
gize till doomsday, but he cannot explain
how it was necessary for him to keep out
the code Of rules while he counted quo
rum. That was not the majority rule,
because the majority were not in their
seats Ever since Speaker Reed has had
his rules the members Of the majority
have not been in their seats. The
Democratic member OF West Vir,
ginia was unseated and Republican
put in his place when there were only 49,
Of the majority present. II is useless Ia
explain that that was done for the public
good and that the 162 members repre-
senting the majority were solicitousl,
attending to public business. Speaker
Reed cannot make any plea to justify
that. It was pure partisanship.

IT is manifestly unfair TO attempt an
ignorant and insolent demand on the
Levy Court to reduce the price for the
food which the sheriff has already fur
nished Granting even for argument
that the various prices Of prison fare
quoted by the Every Evening are correct
the conditions are not the same under
which those prices exist, In Texas the
wages Of carpenters range from 50 to $40
per day In some of the western mines
wages are double or treble the wages in
the mines near here Can those prices
be used to pinch or to bankrupt contrac
tors here after they have expended their
money on quite another basis2 Any bust
ness man will answer that the PROPOSE
tion is not only preposterous but i'm
moral Sheriff Allen has entered
upon his contract in good faith
and fulfilled 1t with credit. The Every
Evening started and engineered an in
vestigation which proved q complete and
honorable vindicatiou Of the sheriff. The
Every Evening made humiliating fail
ure to show Sheriff Allen had done wrong
In any particular 1t has started another
tack and printed figures which are false,
misleading, or meant to deceive, for the
purpose Of reducing the sheriff's fees All
for whati To increase its own fees. The
Every Evening wants to put its own
capacious feet in the trough. II wants to
compel this sheriff or the next one TO buy
its silence. II cherishes malice against
the Levy Court because its 81, 900 claim
was not paid.

The total allowances made in 1888
amounted to $50, 99s 34.
The expenses of the county properly
managed ought not to exceed that
amount; in fact. should not exceed
$50, 000

the orders settled and passed by the
county treasurer for only one year, we
cannot say how much the country has
been robbed, but from indications are led
to believe that 1t will run up into the
thousands If not into tens of thousands
Upon the condition Of affairs we would
recommend that the tax rate be fixed at
40 cents on the $l00, and that commit
tee be appointed by your honorable body
to continue the investigation thus begun,
and that said committee be clothed with
ample power to summon before it
any and all persons and TO call for
the production and examination OF
all books, papers, records, vouchers, or.
ders, written or otherwise, as shall be
deemed necessary for the successful
prosecution of said investigation. Also
be directed to employ an attorney and
expert to examine and audit all the county
for such a period of time as said com
mittee may deem- best. (Signed)

THE SUSSEX TAXES.
Report of the COMMITTEES to Examine the
Assessment and to Make the Lew

Report of the Committee TO Examine the
Amusement and 10 Make the Levy
The method by which the alleged
frauds in Sussex county have been con
cealed from the public so long consists
simply Of a system of bogus additions to
the allowance lists made by the court and
charging them to the accounts that have
been audited and closed.
A special says: Tho allowances for
county expenses are made at the close Of
each term Of the Levy Court. Bills and
expense accounts are presented to the
clerk Of the peace and by him scheduled
and numbered. They are then presented
to the court and allowed in the order In
which they appear on the schedule, and
then entered on the record Of the court S
proceeding.
''The payment Of these allowances is
made by orders upon the county treasurer,
issued by the clerk Of the peace to the
party named in the schedule passed by
the court The orders for such payment
must be signed by the president and
clerk Of the Levy Court, and to facilitate
business are frequently signed in blank
by the president and left with the clerk
Of the peace to be issued upon the de-
mand of the county's creditors.
In an honest administration Of his
Office the clerk Of the peace could only
| issue orders to the number and amount
Of the bills allowed by the court. AS a
matter Of fact hundreds Of orders that
have not been allowed and do not appear
upon the records Of the court, except as
fraudulent additions to accounts that have
been closed. have been issued.
Indications point to the biggest fraud
on the county having been practiced IL
the matter OF allowances for the road
commissioners. The amount taken can.
not be accurately estimated as yet
The following report from the commit.
tee to fix a tax rate for the year 1890 was
submitted
To the Levy Court Of Sussex county.
We the undersigned. the committee
| appointed by your honorable body to as
certain If the tax rate could be reduced
In this county, beg leave to submit the
following report
