THE PENALTY ADDED.
Unpaid Taxes Have THROWN A
Little since Saturday.

Last Saturday was a pretty busy
day at the Sheriff's office. All take,
unpaid before the close Of that day
were increased by the addition Of tbs
0 per cent penalty, and to avoid that
increase a great many people went to
the office to get their receipts. Not
withstsnding the rush the amou nj
paid that day was but little more than
10 per cent Of the amount due, OF
only about one man in ten, who owed
taxes, took advantage Of the last OF
portunity to settle without having
his taxes Increased. The collections
Saturday amounted TO only about
$500, while the amount due is about
Sl1. 200. 00--or one.half Of the entire
amount on the tax books for this year.
The books show that Marion precinct
has been the slowest to pay this year.
In mitigation OF this tardiness it must
be remembered that Marion pays more
taxes than any other precinct, for in
addition TO the State and county
revenues, she has the railroad bonds
to look, after and slowly, but surely,
that debt is being liluidated.

few dry eyes 10 the large conyregs
ton.
Little Kittie was lovely obedient,
child, favorite with play mates, ard
popular with teachers. Her death is
deeply lsmen,ed, and the berea we'd

The county cannot successfully
utilize the WORK o: the prisoners whc
are sentenced to labor by the courts.
About all that can be dine is TO work
them here little and there little on
odd jobs so As to remind them that
there is such thing as work. The
town and county together might put
up cheap work house or shed, fiji it
with rock and put the prisoners u
beating 'ck, and use the product OF
their labor on the streets OF the town
aud the roads leading out. Some
shcrt pieces of turnpike might thus be
constructed. As there il a good deal
ofthis kind Of labor, it would be wise
to devise some plan to use it. II
anybody has a better plan than the
one we suggest, let US have It. If il
is generally known that there is good
syund, healthful hard work for those
who go to Jail to pay fines, there will
be fewer Of them going to Jail for that
purpose.

moving around rapidly since the Is

his big job OF listing the property of
the county before the time required
by law expires. The assessors usually
have assistants, sometimes one, and
sometimes two. but assessor Flanary
concluded that he could do the work
slone, and has clearly demonstrated
tina, be can. He has finished all the
precincts but Bells Mines, and went
10 that Monday, and by the 18th he
expects to have every taxpayer on
bis string. He tells us that the in
dicaiiohs are that be will find more
votes in the couny than have ever be-
fore been reported.
