ABOUT TAXES.
suN CrrY. KANSAS. Non. ,.

GUN ClTI, hANSAS, NOV. SttH, 1871.
EDITOR INDEX: /, as u taxpayer, have many
times thought that the law in regard TO delin
quent tax was wrong. As the law now is, as
soon as the land is sold, it commences to draw
per cent interest. Now il it is against the
law and against the people for national bank
to charge per cent u month, it Is certainly
wrong in this case.
hope to see the time in Kansas that delin-
quent taxes will only draw per cent, as the
laws of state say is Il lawful interest ]
think the law is wrong for the reason that
taxes are very high and many man has been
compelled to let his home sell for taxes itis true
he has years TO redeem it in, but why not
give him years with per cent. And anoth
er thing, mortgage companies always see to it
that the tax is kept paid up if they have to do
it themselves, and of course protecting them
selyes-which is ali good enough. But in pay
ing the tax they know that it beats the money
they loaned on the land in the way of interest,
as it is dead sure" per cent.
Now it would not be so bad if Barber or the
county in which the land is in, got the benefit
of the tax interest but such is not the case.
Many men not interested in the county, keep
watch out and make hundreds of dollars in
the way of buying these delinquent tax re-
ceipts. What the people of Kansas want is
lower taxation and lower interest and this is
one way to help them. Another thing. it costs
50 cents for redemption certificates after the 2
per cent and it all comes off of the poor
man that was compelled to his home sell.
hope to see some good legislation 10y our
next congress, and am firm in believing this
law is worthy of space on our statute books.
Very Truly, SUBSCRIBER.

The Methodists are having a lively
controversy on the subject of admitting
female members as delegates to the
general conference. A vote is being
taken in every congregation in this
country, to find what the church mem
bership thinks on the subject. If wo-
men are admitted as delegates, that act
makes them eligible to become preach
ers and bishops, and to edit the church
papers. And why should they not be
admlttedY We believe there are doz-
en- good reasons for admitting them,
and only one against it. The women
are in the majority in every church,
and in all church affairs, where action
is voluntary, the majority should rule.
The women are better christians than
the men; they are the life of the
church; they average up intellectually
better than the masculine membership.
The INDEX is ready to champion any
cause that is for the good of christiani-
tv. We are interested in the welfare
Of all churches, and believe this move
ment would prove long step forward
for our Methodist brethren. We are in
favor Of allowing the sisters equal
rights with the brethren.

Eli has a Say.

ED. INDEX:-When those seventy
five Harvey county farmers filed out of
the cars, on the platform of our depot,
and no committee to receive them, or to
guide them, felt ashamed of myself
Judge O'Bryan, Judge Edwards and
myself were there, and we all felt the
same way. proposed that the band
lead the way, and 1 would ask these
strangers to follow them to the sugar
works. This was done. When we arrived
at the sugar works we were met by a
number of citizens. After these visi-
tors had been shown around they be-
came interested. These men are
among the wealthiest and best farmers
around Newton-three of the best farm
ers picked out of each township. They
came to see our success in the
way of sugar works. Their visit will
prove great advertisement for our
city and county, They went away say
ing they "had boss time"
l took four wealthy cattle breeders
out to our ranch, and made a sale of
some Holstein registered cattle. The
visitors were delighted with our ranch
and with the farms along Medicine riv-
er. AS pointed out the rich valleys,
the free range and fine grass, they said
that as soon as they could sell their
well-improved farms around Newton
they would come here to locate. This
county strikes cattle man hard.
tell our farmers not to fool away
their lands at low prices, mortgage or
no mortgage. In five years or less they
will bring more money than they would
if the county were all level land.
Prof. Wiley and Mr.. Human came
out to see me few days ago. Mr.. Wi
1 ley was taken with the richness of this
mulatto soil and its sugar qualities.
He offered me $3.50 per acre cash rent
for sixty acres, for the government. ]
told him he could have it under these
conditions: FIrst-If he was going to

Third-He is to let no cookie burrs OF

Every days mail brings to us the
name of some new aspirant for John J.
Ingalls, seat in the senate. Each
claims to possess the necessary qualifi-
cations, and each believes he can best
represent the interests of his constitu-
ents. AS yet Barber county has not
presented the name of the man to
whom she will turn her strength, and
we have not heard of anyone within
her borders who ''has a finger in the
pie" The INDEX is for man that is
thoroughly acquainted with the inter-
ests and needs of the farmer, and with
the courage of convictions. A man
who is time tried and fire tested, and a
man on whom the common people can
implicitly rely. Wewant veteran re-

sage. We have not had time to more
than glance at the message, but the
paints of most interest to Kansans are
: these: He upholds the Mckinley bill.
He says the recent advance in the prices
of goods is to be attributed to the silver
law. He is in favor of the protection
dodge, and urges the passage of the
force bill, otherwise known as the cleo
ton law. He declares the business OF
the country to be improving and every
thing is lovely.
Barbour County index. [volume] (Medicine Lodge, Kan.) 1880-current, 1890-12-03

TheMckinley tariff is not aprotective tariff;
itnever was intended TO be; it is betrayal of
the wholesome and judicious policy OF real
protection; it is, as it was intended to be, re-
payment of political debt due to the manu-
facturers. and bid for the incurrence of an
other similar debt in the future. 1t represents
vast fund returned TO the manufacturers in
acquittance of the most gigantic corruption
fund ever used in American politics. 1t is a
measure which makes the rich richer and the
poor poorer. 1t increases no mans wages; it
increases every mans living expenses

Telegraph, rantankerous republican
paper. A good licking has made the

Good mother, bring my overals and lay 'em ON

And get a little timothy to sprinkle on my

And put some taller on my boots, for all the

That must start for Washin'ton afore anOth-

No. never mind them other things just lay

For my name is Jerry Simpson, and I don't

1t was mighty tussle that the people give the
ring,
And where the fight was thickest you could see
old Jerry spring;
He didn't wear no plume; he warn't no Henry
of Navarro,
But ev'ry time he hit a lick he allus left scar.
And when the doubtful contest was at its
whitest heat,
He jest drawed off his boots and waded in with
naked feet;
And all the farmers shouted as they see his
tellin knocks:
"Hooray for Jerry Simpson, which he don't
wear sOcksl'

things;
How the tariff robbed the farmers and the rail-
roads was their kings;
Jest how 1 stood on silver, and-jest twixt the
boys and me-
How fit against the rebel hordes way back
in '63.
And the boys got up and hustled as they never
did afore,
And the last heered of Kelley he was feelin'
mighty sore;
So, mother, pack the boxes tight, and fasten
down the locks,
And mark 'em Simpson, washinton. P. s.,

When get down to Washin'ton and ketch the
Speakers eye,
Just watch the opposition for the fur's agoin'
to fly;
don't know what committee room will clamor
for my jeans,
But spose I'll have to be content to start on
Ways and Means.
And Kansas will be mighty proud the mornin
that she learns
That when rise to take the floor the other

While uD in the galleries the ca ger public focks
To hear the Kansas Cicero " no don't wear

And when the day is over and the boys have
all got through,
I'll represent my state on Pennsylvany ave

And Blaine or Harrison or any other man of

The German authorities are re. doub-

while there is absolute suffering from
want Of meat in many localities. This
is in retaliation for our high tariff on

many too wise to bite off her own nose
to spite us. Because this government
robs the poor for the benefit of the rich,
is no reason why any other government
