School Taxes.

The School Tax seems to be subject
to delinquences that do not pertain to
the other taxes. Inability may have a
Just claim in some cases, but there is II
manifest Indifference on the part of some
amounting almost to defiance, because
they think they cannot be reached
Such persons are liable to get them
selves in trouble and possible imprisiOn-
ment, as the following from the Re.
vised code will show:
Act Feb. 4th 1926 Code 1929, } Section 8,
in defining the powers and duties of Col
lectors established as follows: = = = And
if any Collector shall not be able to finc
goods and chattels, lands or tenements o.
any person or persons sufficient to satisfy
the rates, which he shall collect according
to his warrant and duplicate be required t.
collect from such person or persons, anC
such person or persons shall neglect or r.
fuse to pay such rates in ten days after de
mand, it shall be lawful for the collector t,
take and imprison the body ofevery such pc
son according to the form and effect of saiC
warrant. By Section Is, Chapter u God,
| 1S52)the foregoing authority is continued
and, by Section l3, Chapter AZ Code 1852
| the Collector of School taxes is empowered

Cure for Hog Cholera.

CECIL WHIG:
l see you are troubled with hog
cholera in Cecil county and | write to
give piece of friendly advice as how
to manage it. l will tell you how to
stamp it out, as have stamped it out
in two different times as to the usual
remedies for curing it don't believe in
any of them. / have found that more
Of the sick hogs got we'll than when l
gave them the remedies that were pre-.
scribed for it and l have tried all of
them that l could hear Of do nothing
but use carbolic acid as soon az cholera
makes its appearance. / remove the
sick ones from the we'll ones, and keep
them apart. then put all of the well
ones in a pen and then take a tin
sprinkling pot that will hold about a
halt gallon or three quarts of water,
and fill it with water and acid using
about one large spoonful of any good
brand of carbolic acid, and stir it up
good L then get in the pen and sprinkle
it all over them. l do that twice day
as long as the disease is in the neigh
borhOOd. l also keep the sick well
sprinkled and have found it takes
| Just about four weeks to stamp it out.
You can then turn your hogs out after
you sprinkle them, but put them up
every night, and be sure to sprinkle
them twice day until you think the
disease is about stamped out. 1 would
then use it about once week. Be
sure to bury all of the hogs that die,
bury them deep. The first time l be
gan with the carbolic acid I had four
sick out of twenty-seven. 1 lost two
and the other two got we'll. sprinkled
twice day for six weeks; all of my
neighbOrs that use carbolic acid as l dc
save their hogs. Those that will not
use it lose half or all of their hogs.
have had cholera among my hogs -four
different times since 1886, and before
began the use of carbolic acid, always
lost half or two-thirds of them. l now
have herd of eighty-fve hogs and
keep carbolic acid on hand all the time
and use it occasionally. Don't put il
on a sow that is with pigs unless she il
sick, for it will make her lose her pigs

Digging for Drainage.

The contractors for sewering the

nine feet deep and will maintain this
depth, more or less until well on past
the centre of the town. There are at
present but about 25 men with pick
and shovel in the trench. Benz. Flu
harty will superintend the laying and
joining of the pipe in Engineer Gas
kills absence. The work is to be fin
ished by the middle of October. To
persons who do not understand the
Waring system, the pipe looks small
and this calls for frequent explanation
Persons familiar with the amount Of
work to be done do not see much iu

over the surface previous to the com
petitive bidding. and won only by &
difference of $498,93, the contract price

Corn Crop Ruined In Certain States.

The report of the statistician of the
Department of Agriculture to August
II shows the average condition of the
corn crop in the entire area to be 69.1 /.
a fall of 26 points since July l. A year
ago the condition was 81. The decline
in condition is attributed to the hot
dry winds and drought in Nebraska,
Kansas, Iowa and parts of other West
ern States. The average in South
Dakota is 20, Nebraska 33, Kansas 40,
Missouri 80, Iowa As, Illinois rs, Ohio
10 Indiana 88, Kentucky 80. In some
localities the corn crop has been de.
stroyed,
Winter wheat shows a good yield Ol
excellent quality, but the average con.
dition of spring wheat is down, to 81

The long agony of the tariff bill is
over; the House has backed down, the
President yields assent after calling it
an act of "perfdy and dishonOr" and
the Gorman-Brice bill has been passed
by the House just as it came from the
Senate. The long contention has been
a continued strain on the business of
the country, and the settling on any
bill was temporary relief. The party
caucus showed deep feeling and wounds
have been made that will be a long
time in healing. This is particularly
so with the Senators who withstood SO
sternly what they called interference
of the President. 1t is doubtful whether
the President will place his signature
to the bill; if so it is certain to be ac-
companled with protest against put
ting a duty on such free raw materials
as coal, iron &c. The House passed
seperate tariff bills in relation to this
called "pop gun" bills for effect, there
being no idea of the Senate adopting
them. The tariff question as it now
stands is unsatisfactory all around
with the Sugar Trust in full swing : ii
this unsettled condition there must b.
further agitation and as a consequence
instability in business pursuits.

Team Stolen.

E. w. Mcdowell, who sometimes lets
out a team to persons for a short ride
in the vicinity, had the misfortune to
lose one last Wednesday. On that
morning a young man claiming to rep
resent an oil and paint house, hired one
from him to go to Kenton. CheswOld
and Leipsic, to be back by 4 o'clock.
When night came he still had not re-
turned, nor has anything been heard
from him since, except that the man
and team were seen to pass through
MillingtOn. 1t is evidently a case of
theft, with no probability of recovery,
as the man may be hundreds of miles
distant with the stolen property dis
posed of no knowing where.
The horse was not so valuable, from
getting along in years, but splendidly
adapted to his business. 1t was long
bay animal with white right hind foot
attached to a side bar York carriage
The loss was from $75 to 800.

THE Wine and Spirit Gazette, the
liquor dealers organ speaking of
Satolli's decree, in an editorial, says:
1--WE do not hesitate to say that the
effect of the strict enforcement of this
decree would be a severer blow to the
liquor trade than anything the pro-
hibition eranks and the cold water
fanatics have accomplished within the
last forty years. Fully two-thirds, if
not more, of the retail liquor dealers of
he county are RomanCatholics. Some of
these are liberal contributors to church
funds. We appreciate fully the deli
cate position in which Archbishop Cor
rigan and the other bishops of the
Catholic church in this country are
placed by this decree of the Papal
Delegate. Yet we are inclined to be-
lieve that it will be disregarded by the
majority of the prelates of the church.
Elsewhere it said: We dare Arch
bishop Corrigan to enforce in letter and
spirit the decree against the liquor
traffic Just Issued by Mgr. SatOlli, the
Papal Delegate. Let the archbishop
do it, and watch the consequences"
A copy of the paper was sent to the
archbishop, and ]. P. Smith, the editor,
received this:
''In reply to your expressed wish,
have the honor to say that / Loyalty
accept the principles laid down by his
excellency, Mgr. Satolli, both in theil
spirit and to the letter. More thar
this, no Catholic can refuse to accept
them. As to the fear of consequences
have yet, thank God, to lean wha
fear is in the discharge of my duty"

THE Prohibitionists, Third Party,
took such advantage of Temperance
Day." at the Brandywine Camp, on
Thursday ,as to make the trustees come
out in a protest against such excess of
privilege as political rather than re-
ligious, and insisting they should not
mix the two in any such way. This
led to great deal of discussion and
some acerbity of feeling but no one
was hurt and it led to better discrimi
nation as to where to draw the line.
The resolutions passed by the trustees
relieve them of all responsibility for
the meeting, but they gave eleven ol
the preachers the opportunity to
emphasize their opposition to "the
saloon" more fully than they otherwise
could have done.

In a letter to one of his American
friends he said:
sit is clear as the daylight that your
government will never be able to hold
under control a suffering and angry
majority, because in your country the
government is in the hands of the
masses, and the rich, who are in the
minority, are absolutely at their mercy.
A day will come in the State of New
York when the multitude between half
breakfast and the hope of half din
ner will elect your legislators. Is it
possible to have any doubt as to the
kind of legislators that will be elected?'
After speaking of the political up
heavals that are destined to bring about
confusion in the Safes, Macauley pro
ceeds:
"YOu will be obliged to do those
things which render prosperity impOs.
sible. Then some Caesar or Napoleon
will take the reins of government il
hand. Your republic will be pillageC
and ravaged in the twentieth century
Just as the Roman Empire was by thu
barbarians of the fifth century, will
this difference, that the devastators o
the Roman Empire, the Huns ant
Vandals, came from abroad, while you
barbarians will be the natives of you
own country and the product of you
own institutions"
Macaulay, in the phrase, "your owl
institution" alluded to the working
mems associations" which had al
ready begun to be organized in 1851
when the industrial movement was il
its infancy in the United States. Blu
he foresaw what was coming, violen
socialism and the Knights of Labor.
Already we notice the approach {
the times when the workmen cor
structing in America the ancient COT
pOrations of old Europe, will becOm
disciplined and throw in the balance {

ceived after the realization of his pre-
phecy a future made still more dark b
