Mckinley, how are the farmers of this
country to get a tariff which differs
from the one we have now? You know
quite as we'll as any man in this re-
public that, whatever the result on
president, there will not be a Repub-
lican majority in the senate, and that
tariff legislation is wholly out of the
question for several years.

Mr.. MUNRoE AND THE COLLECTOR

Editor Of the Register:-I have been much
Interested in the Article you published the
18th inst, IN which Mr.. Munroe claims that
he is u better collector than his predecessor.
am glad to hear that he has improved to the
amount OF 20 per cent in collecting during the
past 20 years. Perhaps some of the rising
generation may live see the time when the
Middlebury tax bills will be settled before
the annual meeting, as Is done now IN Bran.

and in fact In nearly all our neighboriEg
towns. am also pleased to hear that he can
collect all the taxes within 80 day -, but am
not sure that the reason he gives why he has
not done so will bear investigation, even in
the dim light furnished by our village fathers /;
and II he will let me examine his books
think can prove that the s16,2OG reported by
treasurer Ptnney as uncollected is not due,
as he would have us believe, from the poor
who would have been distressed IT he had
insisted on having his money, but am con
fiGent the books will show that his delin
qu nts can be grounded up" about as follows /:
|. Men who have more or less money, but
generally not quite enough; most always
lust little short, but who VIII pay their
debts and will pay their taxes II the collector
Is on deck Mt the right time, but if he is not
the other Fellow gels their money.
;. Men who always have money, close.
listed. thrifty fellows, but who will not pay
their taxes till the last call because they can
make something by delay.
3. Men who spend more every month for
beer and whiskey than their taxes tor year
amount to.
4. The really poor people who would SUI.
fer II the collection were enforced.
This last class the collector has nothing TO
DO with. II tney can satisfy the selectmen
and trustees that they are what they claim to
be, their taxes are nbated.
The records show that Mr. Monroe is
well acquainted with this fact But with the
three first classes the collector should be
very much In evidence. AS soon as he gets
his commission he should notify them that
he IS ready and anxious to receive their con.

given i'm which to make payment at the eX-

BARGE NOT YET LAUNCHED.
SAID TO BE SOME HITCH ABOUT
A PAYMENT BY HER OWNERS.

On the marine railway at the Jack
son and Sharp Company's shipyard is
large steam barge which is being con
structed for the Commonwealth Trans
portation Company.
A date was set several weeks ago for
the barge to be launched and though
she is apparently ready for that cere
mony, II has not been put overheard.
Several reasons are given for this.
One is understood to be that some of
the iron work for the barge has not yet
been completed, and she is being held
on the ways awaiting it's receipt.
II is said, too, that there is some
hitch about the payment which is usu
ally made on every vessel when she
launched, but an Evening Journal re
porter was unable to find out If the
latter reason is correct.
The failure to launch the barge is
said to be keeping back a number OF
men who could be put to work on her
II is not known when the launch will
take place.

ON SATURDAY, OCTOBER 3
STORMY COMMITTEE MEETING.
The meeting OF the Democratic
County Executive Committee yester'
day afternoon was a stormy one. 1t
was held for the purpose of investigat
ing the charges of fraud at the recent
primary election. After much discus
sion il was decided to throw out the
vote of the Eleventh, Sixth, the lower
end of the First, the eastern end OF the
Second. and the eastern end of the
Fourth wards. This was done on the
grounds that the elctIon held there was
fraudulent. IL was decided that an
other election be held in these wards
and districts on Saturday, October 3.
This was strongly opposed by many,
but the majority prevailed. When it
was decided to throw out these dis
tricts and hold another nomination
Chairman willard salisbury left tn
meeting for the reason that the new
election which was ordered was no
made as thorough and far-reaching
hs opinion as TO counteract the fraud
which had been perpetrated.
The Eleventh and Sixth wards, and
the eastern districts OF the Fourth
ward returned good maJorities fot
Stayton. The other two districts CAV
a majority for Pyle.

YACHT WANDA LIBELED.
THE HARLAN AND HOLLINGS-
WORTH COMPANY WANTS $12,-
1857 FROM HER OWNER.


It will be remembered that some
months ago the steam yacht Wanda,
New York Yacht Club, owned by Henry
S. Henry, of Philadelphia, came into
the shipyard of the Harlan and Hol-
lingsworth Company for extensive re-
pairs. She was in very bad shape and,
besides being refltted and repainted, a
new set Of boilers was put in and some
new machinery was built for her.
The work on her progressed rather
slowly. but at the time it was sup
posed that this was merely on account
of necessary delay. Now It would APP
pear il was due to money troubles.
1t seems the company has never been
paid for the work, and yesterday the
Wanda, on the request of the Harlan
and HolllngswOrth Company was lib
eled at her wharf at the foot Of Twen-
ty-fifth street, in Brooklyn, N. Y. The
claim against her is for s12 1857.
It is believed that the claim will be
met.

scow,s MACHINERY REMOVED.

The machinery on the garbage scow
which was built by the Jackson and
Snarp Company for the New York
Sanitary Dumping Company. for use in
New York harbor, has been removed
from the vessel, which still lies at the
shipyard. The scow was to have been
used for dumping the garbage OF New
York city in the sea. 1t will be re-
membered that just before the scow
was completed the company which was
having 1t built failed, as a result Of the
passage of law preventing the dump
ing of garbage in the water adjacent to
New York.
