Mr.. STATIONS RECORD
Figures Count in the Matter of
Reduced Taxation.

From the Ho60ken Evening Net0S.
The taxes for the years 1891. 1892 an
1893. OF properly located on Hudson
street, which the Euening Nears
published yesterday. proved quite a
revelation to many owners of real estate
comprehendsd III the report.
A prevalent habit.with the majority Of
people is to pay demands made upon
them without charging their memories
with the incident with any degree of
circumstantialitY. The consequence Is
they fail TO retain information UGH as
was coutaiped in the comparison table
in last nighGs's issue concerning the tax
question.
Every taxpayer is cogHizsnt In a agu
way of the fact that last year the tax rate
was reduced ana the mount OF money
rendered to Collector Bowes for the use
OF the city government was less than he
had parted with the previous year.
Incidentally they were aware of the
fact that Edward r. Stanton, who was
then Mayor. was in some manner respon-
sible for their good fortune.
Runor said that the reduction was
only a spasmodic burst of economy for
political purposes. aud that the ulEimate
result would be an, extraordinary in~
crease In the tax rate the following year.
Many likely converts became dubious,
and finally concluded to withhold their
approval aud await the result.
Eumor was wrong.
Mayor Stanton assured the public that
the financial ideas he urged would prove
beneficial to the people in 1892 aud
1898. He insisted that continued economy
and prudence in the management of city
affairs would secure a further reduction
in 1894.
His prophecy for 1898 is true, and the
EUening NeWS is placing the figures
before the people for their inspection.
The advance information which is fur
nished through our columns of the
amount due for 1898 for taxes or property
situate in all parts OF the city is Within
the reach of any taxpayer who IL dis
posed to interview the capable City AS
SCISSOR. james E. Dollard.
The inspection of the books for the
years 1891, 1892 and 1893 uatur ally entails
considerable research, but We are salts
fied the news furnished interests u
readers and at the same time informs
the public OF the success attained by
Sheriff Stanton during his administra>
ton as Mayor.
Many taxpayers one year ago placed
Mayor Stanton on probation and publicly
agreed that they would endorse his
administration should q reduction of
taxes for the year 1898 ensue.
The ~coDcensus of opinion Is that he
o deserves unstintel praise. He gave
this city reduced and equal taxation.
We have yet to hear of a taxpayer who
objects to low taxes. Even those who
opposed Mayor Stantou's vie VS. grace
fully submit aud agree that he was
correct in his promises and conclusions.

Here, then, are two phases of Mr..
Stanton's career in which he has won
high credit and done the public emil

the people as we'll as mere justice TO
him to continue him for another term
