COLLECTING DELINQUENT rAxEs.
Eight Men VIII Re sent After the
Taxpayers.

Efgnt Men VIII lie sent After inc
Taxpayers.
The notices that were sent out by Coun-
~ Treasurer Maple recently requesting
the people to pay up their delinquent
personal taxes for 1894. 50 that the neces-
sity OF sending out collectors could bo
avoided, brought IN only about $4,000.
There is a delinquency OF $4,000. which
the county wants. and commencing next
Monday tho old method viii be employed
TO collect that money. Eight or ten men
viii be sent ont 10 make calls On tho
taxpayers who are delinquent. and X tina
amounts due are not paid tho unpleasant
process OF seizure viii have TO be en-
ployed.
a week from next Monday the regular
collection OF taxes for 1885 will begin. 1t
is probable that despite the fact that pay
ment can be made in installments now,
this will not bring in a great amount OF
money on the start. "a the old per cent.
rebate for payment In the first part OK
the year has been done away with.

of that amount within the week. The Now
city mills did not follow the rise by an add
vance of their product Feed wheat also
went up SOC, and barley got another adj
vance of 50c. One reason for the advanc-
ing price OF mill feed is that east Of the

In the previous year the winter was mild.

White Earth Indians Have FUN ON
a. Train.

The passengers on the Dakota express
or the Northern Pacific railroad expe-
ffenced an hour or two of excitement
during the trip early Tuesday MORN
ing. AT Detroit, Mimi, a score or more
OF Indians from the White Earth reser-
yation boarded the train en- route to
Wadena, where they were to change
cars for Fergus Falls. These good In
dians, numbering among them several
squaws, We're to appear at Fergus Falls
in behalf of the United States against
party who had violated Uncle Sans
laws by distributing frewater on the
reservation for money. The little band
arrived in Detroit during the afternoon,
and immediately began to celebrate
the occasion of a few hours liberty by
seeking an introduction to John Bar
leycorn. This they did, to the salts
faction cf the Detroit saloonkeepers at
least, and by the time the train
lett that place both bucks and
squnws Were feeling pretty good. They
not only filed up their physical capac-
ity, but laid in a little reserve In the
shape OF a pint or quart bottle of the
treacherous juice The whisky did not
improve any by age during the time it
was in their possession, for no sooner
had they boarded the train than the
measure OF each bottle was hurriedly
taken. One old buck, who had proba-
bly, exchanged shots with Judge Elan
drau during the New Ulm massacre
proved very interesting figure for the
passengers In the car. After finishing
the bottle, he put 1t back into his
pocket, and about every five minutes
would hold 1t up to his mouth In the
nope that drop or two of firewater
would form to satisfy his burning
thirst for liquor. Just about this time
something of more serious nature
was taking place in the smoker Two
young bucks, who were unused to
heavy indulgencies in liquor, became
entangled In quarrel, and in almost a
moments time were pummeling each
other for dear life.
The smaller one, who was getting a
little the worst of the fracas, reached
for dirk which he carried, and there
might have been bloodshed but for the
prompt interference of the brakemer
and several of the passengers, who sep
arated the savages just as the train
rolled into the station

Julia Marlowe Taber and Robert Tabar
gave the third performance Of .Romola" at
the Metropolitan last night to the largest
changed tonight, when they will present GAS
You Like It." Tomorrow night they will
give Romeo and Juliet" Saturday night,
Much Ado About Nothing" and at the Sat-
urday matinee they will repeat "Romola.'
Next week at the Grand will mark the an
nual visit Of that popular naval drama THE
Ensign" This attraction is familiar to thea
tergoers, having been seen here a number Of
times. The story of the play Is founded on
an actual episode in the late civil war. The
company Is said to be one Of the best that
has ever presented the play The leading
feminine role is intrusted to Miss Bessie Tay-
lor. In the role of Alice Greer, Miss TAYLOR
is said to have met with success. The scenic
equipment will be Of the same elaborate or
der which marked the original production Of
the piece in this city. The sale of seats for
the engagement begins this morning
Another enthusiastic audience filled the
Grand opera house last evening to witness
the artistic performance of Digby Bell in
Hoyt's entertaining comedy. "a Midnight
Bell Many curtain calls and continuous
laughter and applause rewarded the efforts of
Mr.. and Mrs. Bell and the members Of their
organization. The specialties and the quar-
tette received numerous eneores. All pre-
vious records of the house have been broken
by this attraction, and the advance sale for
the balance of the week is unusually good.

A GREAT FINANCIER.

Mr.. Bryan is apparently able to give
us something entirely new on the sub
ject of finances with each days talk.
he never gets so far that he has not
another establishment in reserve. The
latest gem that dropped srom his lips
was at Chester. Pa, where he said: 1T
is easier to make money by lending
money than it is to invest it in devel-
oping the resources of the country" So
Mr.. Bryan entertains the idea that
there is some marvellous process. the
sole prerogative of the gold bugs and
the money power, by which they, can
take money and lock it up, and have
IL grow more money, just as potatoes
sprout in dark cellar in the spring.
They do not have to invest it, or use
1t In productive industry; they just
put it out at interest" and let it go
on reproducing itself at the cost of the
toiling millions Of plain people," who
are the objects Of Mr.. Bryan's tender
care
These plain people, will do we'll to
give thought to the process by which
capital is enabled to earn interest. Mr..
Bryan says that it does not do this by
investment In developing the resources
of the country. How II does earn in
terest, in his opinion, we would be
much pleased to know. 1t would sup
ply one OF the missing chapters in the
nd
system Of finances. We never heard of
an honest man who borrowed money
with any other idea than that he could
SO use it in developing the resources Of
the country, in cultivating the soil or
operating railways or steamboats,. or
In buying or selling goods, or In some
productive enterprise, that 1t would
earn the interest that he had paid, and
something extra for his own profit We
have yet to see the man. not a swim
dler, who borrowed money in order to
lock 1t up, without investing it. Such
an one, who paid interest to the lender
for the privilege of locking a lot of
money in vault and looking at it once
a day, would speedily tire of the pro-
cess.
The simple truth is that, as usual,
in his TRADE against capital and his en-
deavor to set class against class, Mr..
Bryan overshoots the mark and falls
to talking nonsense. 1t is his cue to
represent the lender of money as al
ways veritable Shylock, and the Dor
rover as an oppressed and injured
man, because he is expected to pay
back again the money that he has re-
ceived and used for his own purposes
and to his own advantage To give
this impression, Mr.. Bryan tells us that
money which is loaned at interest is
not used to develop the resources Of the
country He knows, as every other
man knows, that money is never Dor
rowed for any other purpose, unless it
is to steal it. With every speech Mr..
Bryan grows upon US as a financier.

Free coinage Of silver will not change
the number OF bushels of wheat or corn
which can now be raised on any slrsu
in the land With the same soil, the
same climate. and the same kind of
farming. The quantity of produces viii
be- exactly the same after free coin
age of silver as laFore. 3nt the silver
dollar will then pe worth m goods only
50 cents where now 1t IL worth 100 cents.
The value of the money will be the tnly
thing which has been changed. IL A
had agreed to pay 500, without spec
flying gold dollars of the present
weight and fineness, A could pay p
with 100 silver dollars worth only $50 in
gold. Under the present system. De it
remembered, all dollars since 1879 have
been kept equal to gold dollars; and
since about 1910 silver dollars have not
been in use. If B loaned A S1A0, he
gave him either 100 gold dollars, or
goods to the value of 100 gold dollars.
Then, as nearly as we can arrive at
justice-with any monetary standard
A should pay back to B hat sum Of
money which would return to b ap-
proximately the same value OF goods as
at the beginning. II now, it is claimed
that it is right and just to pay in silver
worth So cents for 100 gold dollars Dor
rowed, on what grounds is it right i?
Is 1t true that goods have fallen in the
proportion of 100 to 50? Silver has; but
have goods?
The answer to this does not depend
on "my belief or my opinion it de-
Ponds on the facts. These have been

A Home Thrust by Attorney 8. II.
White.

Mr.. S. F. White, well-known attorney Of
Duluth, has addressed a letter to Charles A.
Towne. which is printed in the Duluth News
Tribune, the salient points of which are as
follows:
have lying before me a transcript from
the stenographer's minutes of the sueeeh
of Congressman G. A. Towne at Cloquet on
Sept. >. from which make the following
quotation: -
These people are spending money freelv.
they are using lots of 1t in the Sixth district
One man was to arrive yesterday mornine
with somebody's money in his pocket. They
say they propose to beat me whether, they
beat anybody else not If anybody has got
any money that he wants to give you. ac-
commodate them, take it, use it, and then
vote as you please; 1t is entirely right
| can hardly believe that Mr. Towne be-
neyes these statements of alleged facts as to
the use of money which he thus solemnly
makes, but let this matter pass for the pres
ent and consider the moral position in which
he places himself, in advises his hearers to
accept brides for their votes, which is none
the less immoral on account of the further
advice to them to vote as they please. Lord
Bacon admitted the reception of money from
suitors before him when judge, but declared
that such sums received by him in no man
ner affected his decisions, which were always
made In behalf of the party who he really
thought ought to succeed, but even his great
abilities and Hondrous services to England
have not been sufficient to shield him from
the execration and contempt of the succeed
ing ages of English-speaking people as the
bribe-taker.
The adviser Of men to take brides stands
in just the same relation to the bribe-taker
that the suborner does to the perjurer Mr..
Towne is a legislator, one Of body whose
duty 1t Is to crystalize into the form Of
law the moral sense of the people He is
also a scholar and such should take II
upon him to express only the highest and
best morality. and yet he advises his hearers
to take brfbe for their votes and to cheat
and defraud the man who pays them out of
the money paid for the vote. He is a lawyer.
