ORANGEVILLE.
OBSERVER,

In the Statement Of Finances of
Col. Co., our people seem somewhat
puzzled in regard to the amount Of
State tax paid by Orange.
We notice the amount paid by the
whole County is $434s,93 Of which
Orange pays almost one half, S2oI2,-
o6. In the Co., tax Bloom pays $434a,-
% and Orange $949,46. More than
four times as much is paid by Bloom
than Orange, while in State Orange
pays almost twice as much as Bloom.
If we understand it, the State tax is
paid by Corporations and people hav-
ing money at interest.
Our corporations in Orange are in
fact nothing. Then we are to suppose
that the amount is raised from the
money at interest. Now with the
manufacturing establishments and
people of wealth, (who are likely to
have money at interest) living in
Bloomsburg, can it be possible that
this is fact or is it mistake in print
ingp
A TAX PAYER.
The county statement is printed
from plates and it is therefore impos-
sible to correct the figures in the
paper. The state tax for Orange
should be $aIa.o6 instead of $ao1a.-
o6. Also under the head of assessors
pay the last column in Mt. Pleasant
should be STATS instead ofs44,75.]

Thomas Boran came up from the
lower end of the county last Saturday
as member of the Standing Commit
tee, and was supposed to be for Buck
ingham as delegate to the National
Convention, but at the committee
meeting he voted for Krickbaum, and
when he went home he carried with
him commission as Deputy Sheriff,
and an election as delegate to the
state convention. On Saturday night
he kept himself dark for fear that some
of his colleagues from the lower end
would punch his head.

William Krickbaum will vote for

Democratic Convention. Cleveland
is undoubtedly the choice of the demo
Gratis of this county. There are two
delegates from this district, and Mr..
krickbaum must secure Iour more
votes from either Northumberland,
Montour or Sullivan counties to send
him as delegate. There are 10 con-
ferees in this district and it requires Q
to nominate. Columbia county has
five.

1888 people of the Democratic

trast, Manitowoc county with
population of 3o,869 has three
assemblymen to itself while Wauke-
sha county with population of 49,
27o has one to itself with a small
interest in two Democratic districts.
That indicates how the work was
done. 1t was done artistically and
thoroughly and for no other purpose
than to serve the Democratic party.
1t was done in violation of the
constitution and of all the dictates
of honesty and fairness. The Su-

intense excitement was caused here
when the announcement hat Governor
Buchanan had committed the sentence
Of II. Clay King, who was to have been
hanged Friday for the murder of ID. IL.
Poston. The feeling of the people wa
further intensified by the bitter COM
ments OF the newspapers on the execu-
tive's action and a mass meeting
was held, at which Gov. buchanan
was to have been hung In eflgy. This
was not done at this meeting, however,
rs many prominent citizens counseled
moderate action. Later an efigy Of the
states executive was burned by a few
enraged citizens.
The feeling over the governors 40
ton Is very bitter indeed and last even
ing 1t was given out that the Jail would
be attacked and the notorious prisoner
lynched. So great was the anxiety that
the criminal court Judge, J. j. Dubose,

moval of King to the p~enitentiary and
the sheriff took him to Nashville by the

declining late only in the latter years.
A slight Improvement is indicated in the
states north Of the Ohio river and q
greater advance in the states west of
the Mississippi river, except Kansas
and Missouri. The condition Is high in
nearly all the southern states, nearly
the same as in July in the breadth west
OF the Mississippi; higher in the lower
states of the Atlantic coast and slightly
lower in Alabama and Mississippi. A

states, except New York, and also in

NINETY LIVES LOST.
Collision OF Two steamers nj Helsing-
fOrH.

Collision Of Two steamers at Helsing-
ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 1.-The pleas
ure steamer Ajax was run down out
side of Hclsingfors Monday and ninety
lives were lost. The vessel left Hell
singfors Sunday with 100 excursionists.
Her return was delayed and she arrived
off Helsingfors after midnight When
the part of the channel was
reached the steamer Rune berg was met
going out,
The captain Of the Ajax attemptedt to
cross the bow of the Runebcrg and the
latter changed her course, bringing
about the collision. In II minute after
she was struck the Ajax sank and tho
Runeberg went aground.
Those ON board the Runeberg threw
overheard life buoys, boxes, chairs,
tables-in fact anything that would
float and help to support the people
struggling in the water. At the same
time her boats were lowered and pulled
in the dark, guided by the cries of the
drowning, and succeeded in saving q
number Of the passengers and crew Of
the Ajax.
