POpuIist Revenue Law,
A Wonderful Collector of OeIin-
quent Taxes,
Liberal Provisions Favorable to Poor Peo
pie Keeping Their Homes.

The Eugene Register copied a para.
graph from letter by the editor
about the new Washington law
for collection Of delinquent taxes.
The Register editor, as aRepublican,
denounced the Washington law as a
PODulist outrage on the poor man
We copied his article and enclosed IL
20 the governor Of Washington, to get
more light on the subject, and now
print his reply below. IL speaks for
itself:
OLYMPIA, Jan. "a, 1898
Ed. JoURNAL;-GOvernor Rogers
directs me to reply TO your favor of
the 10th Inst, the governor having to
leave for Seattle.
Enclosed you will find copy Of the
revenue law OF the state OF Washing
ton created by the legislative session
OF 1897.
Under the old revenue laws, which
have been changed every two years
since the state was organized, the fol-
lowing penalties and interest were ex.
acted on delinquent taxes:
1890, 10 per cent penalty, 10 per cent
interest: 1891, per cent penalty, 20
per cent interest; 1892, ~ per cent peu-
atty, 20 per cent interest; 1894, 2 per
cent penalty, IL per cent interest;
1896, no penalty, 10 per cent interest.
IL will be seen from this that under
the Republican tariff laws the pen
atty aud interest was generally much
higher than under the revenue law of
1897, which embraces the 1896 taxes.
The beneticent feature of this law
was. however, the remission OF the
penalty and interest which had ac-
on a vast amount OF taxes
for several years prior TO 1896. Under
this law II the original tax, with per
cent interest was paid from the date
1t delinquency, before the 30th of
1897. all the former pen
llties and interest were discharged. |
Thus, instead of depressing the poor
man, thousands OF people were enabled |
TO avail themselves OF this liberal |
and even now, after the |
period OF redemption on many years
" these delinquent taxes has expired, |
lnder this new law, the period Is still |
further extended for three years from |
.he 30th day Of November before one |
'an be dispOssessed Of his property. |
The law has been wonderful revenue |
collector aud certainly no taxpayer |
,an complain Of oppression who has
given him three years, after the |
Derod OF redemption had expired, in
which to pay his taxes,

TEACHERS MEMORIAL
From Oklahoma Asking Pay From Il
Government,

From Oklahoma Asking Pay From the
Government,
Il. Il, Jones, OF the teachers com
mittee, NaYajoe, Greer county OKLA
homo, has sent us memorial to the
president and congress, as printed be
low. III the facts are true they deserve
pay at once.
The memorial is as follows:
GEER COUNTY TEACHERS MEMORIAL
When Geer county, Okomla, Was 4
part Of Texas, the schools were suS.
tained by money from the Texas Free
School Fund, On March Is, 1896,
when the supreme court of the United
States decided that Geer county be
longed TO the Government, the teach
ers In Geer county held warrants on
the Texas Free School Fund for 81, l2l.
The schools in this county were
closed as soon as the decision was
given and this amount had been
earned before that time.
The teachers went before the Texas
state Slegislature, last winter and
asked for the money due them. A
bin passed both houses Of the legisla-
ture authorizing the payment of
these claims, but was vetoed by the
governor of the state on the ground
that the government should pay this
debt.
The teachers OF Greer county who
labOred SO faithfully To forward
the cause of education, ask you TO
come To their relief aud pay this
amount which is just and true.
The United States Government
was benefited by receiving scope Of
country larger than some OF the
states OF the Union and thousands Of
dollars are going into the Treasury
at the Mangum Land Once.
The government gave financial as
SiStance To many counties in OKLA

thirds OF their number being women,
ask YOU 10 come TO their relief aud

HANNA.

The Ohloan ''came down like the VIII
on the iOld,n
His shylOcks "were all cleaning IN
purple and gold;'
The blast OF his trumpet In the
distance was heard
Like the rolling Of thunder when the
lightnings are stirred.
For money was plenty and as cheap
as the dirt,
And he that was filthy had change
OF shirt,
The chariot OF fire was made steed Of
OF the war
When the millions came shouting on
board OF the car.
And as the deep thunders with
tremblings were beard.
They whooped up Bill Mckinley In
that little burg;
For 10 Canton he spoke, as he stood
on the mat,
The great Hanna was smiling and
cheered with his hat.
Listen, my cuuntrymcu, what makes
this great ciatter =
Thar's too much production, and
that's what's the matter.
But light up the fires, let the furnace
be hot,
And then work will be plenty, with
meat in the pot.
To us, the ships of the seas their
treasures will bring,
Under the blessings Of tariff we'll
feast and sing,
And the poor man that works and
camps In the hOller,
At night, will he paid with an honest
gold dollar.
Then heed not the speech OF the Boy
from the West.
For his teachings are vain, and but
visions, at best;
And the silver that sparkleS and
shines like a star,
Will surely 20 down fifty per cent be-
low par.
The reckoning ,was made from the
gulf to the lakes.
With Republican tickets, the little
snow flakes.
Ohio wins-the farce is ended-the
curtain drops,
The hero of the west is left to mourn
with the Pops.
But dearth struck the land as 1t did
in days of old,
And men from afar, come to buy corn
with their gold:
Prosperity +. While yet on doubtful !

GOV. JOHNSTON AT THE CAPITAL.
He Expresses Himself as Delighted With the
 Outlook.

Special Dispatch to The Age-Herald.
 Montgomery July Ex-Governor Johnston returned to the capital this morning after a weeks canvass of northern counties. He had undergone the fatigue of much travel over country roads, and otherwise had done much hard work, but seems no worse for it physically, and much better men, tally.
 The governor had great receptions. The people, regardless of party, turned out en masse to greet him, and his meetings were great public receptions He had good-hu- mored fun with the enemy, and delighted the democracy.
 At Center, for example, there was great gathering, the largest known in the history of the county of Cherokee, accord ing to the democratic chairman. After the governor had delivered his speech there many hundreds of citizens came forward to shake his hand-a real reunion-and two- thirds of those who grasped the governors hand have been hitherto populists. It was a strange and gratifying experience.
 The governor was seen today and asked regarding his tour of triumph. q greatly enjoyed it," he said. s'The whole people, it seemd, turned out to well come me, and I felt perfectly confident. We are going to carry some of those coun- ties that have been against us, especially Etowah and Cherokee. Our friends say we
 
 and Cherokee by perfectly safe majority. There is practically no opposition to the state ticket in those counties
 ''Then there will be a chance for John Burnett in November was suggested.
 "A chance!' exclaimed the governor. "Mr Burnett will be elected to represent the Seventh district in congress. Our friends say that he could beat Congress- man Howard in straight single fight, as he is certain of his own counties, Chero- kee and Etowah but there will be regu- lar republican and a regular populist cam dfdate. MT. Burnett is certain to be elected and he deserves it. Personally. he is immensely popular. He is man of the highest character, and the nomination came to him unsought. He will make Ala bama a most harworking and useful mem- Der of congress. With the whole outlook in the northern counties I am perfectly satisfied"
 Governor Johnston will spend today and tomorrow at the executive office, and to- morrow night will leave on tour of the southern counties.
