COUNTY FINANCES.
The finances ri th,a county are in had

shape and there is no denying the fact.
When it comes to a condition where
warrents are worth but SIXTY cents on
the dollar, something is most fatally
wrong, and a remedy Is imperative.
just what is necessary ut this time to
restore warrants to par, or rather what
10 the best thing to do to put more
money in the treasury, or reduce the
outlay, is an open question. But some
thing must be done and that at once.
We cannot understand why our war
rants are SO low, for surely they are q
good investment at eighty or ninety
cents. but be that as it may they are
clear out of reason in price and it be-
comes q duty which the county commis-
sioners will have to perform, to correct
this condition OF affairs. 1t is very de-
trimental to the interest Of the county
in many ways. It makes everything the
county has to buy cost at least n
third more than it would If cash was
paid, thus making the weight OF taxa
ton enormous to those who own pro-
perty in the county.
There is a large amount of taxes un-
collected, and much Of it is on real es-
tate, and it would seem ought to be col.
lected, but when we take into considera-
ton the condition OF our crops during
the last few years it is not difficult to nee
why this Is. 1t is true the county
has sold and resold many tracts
and under the law had to bid it in, and
when it was bid in, it was IN no better
condition than before so far as the
money il concerned. We are not famil-
lar enough with the law to know whe-
ther our county commissioners have
the power to sell these tracts, so bid in
by the county, after the two years OF
redemption has expired, at a less sum
than the tax, but it seems to us that
such power ought to be IN their hands,
as at this time taxes have piled up
against certain tracts, not very valu-
able, to ar amount greater than the
value OF the land, and it will not sell
Tor the tax; this is especially true OF
many town lots. Then there are many
instances where large personal taxes
stand against certain lands in addition
to the real estate taxes which puts a
price on the land out OF reach by any
purchaser.
These questions ought to be investi-
gated, and if there is any power gwen
whereby some scheme can be devised to
put the county on q cash basis, it ought
to be done. Collect this old tax at some
rate if not 100 cents then fifty cents on
the dollar.

GIVE US LIGHTS.

The reporter, who lives out on
Maple Street, had almost forgotten
how a dark night looked, until last
night, when he undertook the trip
out to his home, from Broad Street.
The electric lights heretofore, had
made the cloudiest night seem as Il
star light one, but last night the
lights were out, (they have been
taken out by the two citics,) and
the darkness was 50 intense that
the reporter thought a black cat
stuck on pole would have given
out some kind of light, Our eX.
perence in walking eleven blocks
would make chapter in a blood
curdling novel, in the hands Of a
competent person We had, 50 it
seemed, business in two different
bitches, We did not measure the
depth of them, but they were deep
enough to give us trouble in getting
out We also tried to see how hard
we could fall from a foot bridge to
the water below. After this we
went into a barbed wire fence, and
tore our only and best pants, in
several places, We extricated our.
self from this last trouble with
great difficulty, only to fall over
a sleeping COW, on the side walk,
When we arrived at home and put
our hand on the latch Of the gate
and was feeling thankful that our
nights experience was at an end,
"Eph, our dog, sprang at us and
would not hear to our entrance,
although we whistled our best
mockmg-blrd whistle, and sang our
best song to him, We aroused the
family and was let in only to be
abused for being such a tarnal old
fool for going out on such a dark
night, and coming back in such a
way We did not think the electric
lights amounted to the shake OF a

now they are gone, we shall sadly
miss them, and shall ever howl for
their return.

FIGHT COMES OFF AT DALLAS.
The Arrangements as Contemplated
Will be Carried Out,

Dallas, Texas, July a. The com
mittee of twenty representing the
mass meeting of citizens held last
Friday, after a conference held with
President Dan Stuart, of the
Florida Athletic Club tonight,
adopted the following resolution;
Whereas, able lawyers give it as
their opinion that the glove contest
is not a violation of any valid
statute, and that if it is vio-
lation the same can be punished as
other violations of laws are, etc,
therefore
Resolved, that we, representing
the business interest, request Pres
ident Stuart to proceed with the
erection of his building and the
carrying out Of the arrangements
as contemplated and promised
This settles the agitation as to
whether Dallas or Galveston will get

MORE TROUBLE.
Grand Chief of the D. R. T. Looking
For Supt. ]. A. Edison.

Grand Chief M. V. Dowell passed
through here today for Tyler, Tex
as to confer with Superintendent
J. A, Edison Of the Cotton Belt rail
road in the interest OF the tele-
graphers on the line Of this road,
AS we have stated heretofore, there
is no misunderstanding between
the road and its employees and for
these chiefs to be travelling around
to stir up trouble where none exists,
we can not see the use of to save
our lite, The Cotton Belt has
given assurance that the mems
wages would not be lnterfered with
and the men have all along the line
as being satisfied as long as they
received the wages now paid.
1t seems to be the aim of these
leaders to keep up a stew at all
hazards, Mr., S. w. Fordyce Pres,
ident Of the Cotton Relt railroad
was waited on by reporter of a
st, Louis paper in regard to the
visit of Chief Dowell, and the con.
templatcd trouble and he said:
"There will be no strike. If Il
strike should be ordered not more
than four or five men on the whole
line would 20 out, The contract
was cancelled because the O. Il. T.
on our road has been badly man.
aged, and it has interfered with our
discipline. The order has allowed
its men to boycott the non-union
operators employed on our road and
we cannot have our business inter.
fered with. We have nothing
against any union, but we must
maintain discipline in our service.
We are friendly to all unions, be-
cause it is convenient to treat with
a committee and adjust matters
quickly. This is not a preliminary
move towards abrogating our con-
tracts with the other organized
bodies Of employees, such as loco
motive dremen engineers, etc, The
rumor to that effect is wholly with
out foundation.

WHEELING. w. Va, April 11.-At
$40 a. III. the south wall of the 4-story
brick block Of T. T. Hutchinson 81 Co.,
on the corner of Main street and the
alley south Of Twelfth, collapsed with
out warning. Next north Of it is q D.
story brick block, which Chapman &
son were just finishing, to be used as a
paint, glass and building supply store,
and they already had stored in it about
&l4, 600 worth OF stock and were doing
business there. Hutchinson & Co. deal
in hardware, saddlery and wagonmak-
ers' supplies, and the building was
packed full of goods. The wall on the
alley first fell out, pulling with it the
part of the wall between Chapman's
and Hutchinson's The crash of the
falling buildings was terrific and soon
drew thousands to the scene. The
Horror of the Accident
was increased by a fire which broke out
Immediately, and as there We're large

was delicate.

were released by prying the bars off the

and hopes are entertained that he may

work by large force of men and found

other three employees are still in the
ruins and doubtless dead. When the
collapse came Ford was selling bill of
goods to Benjamin L. Pritchard, a
wagon manufacturer of Buchannon,

found lying across Ford's legs. He was

the recovery of his body.
Great indignation is expressed be-
cause at the time the old Meloden hall

in using them, and, owing to the lack
of adequate laws, could not be pre-
