Here are 32 companies, firms and indIvid-
uaI- that pay over 100000 city tax on real
estate alone, to say nothing of water rents,
occupation tax. business tax, county tax,
State TAX on funds, mortgages, etc, and
mercantile license tax. Truly Caesar e1acts
The Pennsylvania Railway Company, not
included in the above, appears to pay tax in
almost every part OF the city, and in bor-
ouEh- and townships of the county, as its
T8mInCatiOns appear to be nearly endless.
From the frequency with which it is found
the I5-nill levy brings $4,000 tax it is shown
that the number of fairly well-to-do people
lv Pijtsburg alone is much larger than most
people suppose. This amount of tax repre-
eeuts a foftune of over 100000. Then the
500 class. whose 15-mill city ia amounts
To- 500 are still more frequent, and the fellow
HhO pays 500 city realty tax and who may
he safely regarded worth $4,000 in realty
and other equivalents Of filthy lucre bobs up
50 frequently as to become monoton-
Gus in skimming the list. Thus
we, in the close of the century,
40 not regard a man who each year pays
more tax than was considered neat family
competence in the middle thereof as a rich
man-he is merely respectable, though at
tGe same time such a one If prudent and
Ui philosophical temperament may manage
10 extract vast amount of comfort from
life.
Impossible to Measure the Wealth.
Though county taxes appear almost a bag
HtClle compa red with the exactions of the
city, vet many people grow restive when
they contemplate the disparity of valuation.
II you wish for real hard Job just make
an effort to find out how rich some wealthy
people are. Some of them have invested
largely in securities that are not taxed, and
II YOU examine the return of some people
YOU know to find how much money tlley
have at interest and how many mortgages
they own, YOU viii be astOnished either to
find that they are not nearly so well fixed as
YOU thought they were, or are forgetful
when the assessor is about or have elastic
COnscienccS.
IT should be borne in mind that many of
the wealthy peOp.e own property in Allc-
gheny and throughout the county as well as
in this city-in fact, the bulk of the posses

NO SPRING SHOW.

1t is to be regretted that there is TO
be no stallion show in Yale this spring.
But rs the hotel men and others, who
should have been the ones to subscribe
towards this, and who would have
received the benefit of the crowd that
would have been drawn to our village,
would not assist financially towards
making up the list of premiums, the
scheme fell through. This show
would not have benefited the hotel
men and merchants alone, but would
have been Il great assistance to farmers
and stock raisers generally who re-
quire the services of good horses for
breeding purposes, and who could
have had their choice of the horses
that would have been in the town if
the fair was held here. Geo. W. Bell,
who was the originator of these shows
in this place, undertook to have a fair
here this spring, but received such
poor encouragement from those who
should have been interested, that he
concluded to let the matter drop, for
this season at least. Mr.. Bell has al
ways been at the head Of any project
of this kind that would be Il benefit to
our village, and it is source of regret
that he should meet with such poor
success in this case.
