poem was read by Mrs. William Chand-

much pleasure to her and to all who
were present. Following is the poem TO
Mrs. Miranda Cheney on her 10th birth
day:
have no hymns my sister
Upon your stand to lay,
No song of holy gladness
To bring to you today.
To songs of grace and glory,
No verses sweet and new;
/ write not for the thousands;
1 only write for you.
For oh my heart is singing
song of quiet praise
To him who has preserved you
And kept you many days.
To him who knew your sorrow,
And marked the teardrops swell
When on the field of battle,
A loyal soldier fell.
So l come before my Father,
My hands in faith uplift,
To fill your cup W tn gladness
And every perfect gift.
And may his loving kindness
Fill all your years with grace,
Till in the coming glory
You stand before his face.
And see with light from heaven
Clear shining on your ways,
Each pilgrimage petition
Translated into praise.

President 7. e. Collins Says the Com
ing Meeting in the Cascade Metrop-
oils Promises to Be the Most En-
joyable the Society Has Had for
Years.

The Society of Montana Pioneers
will hold its annual meeting at Great
Falls this year, beginning October 1
and continuing for three days. 1t will
be fair week at Great Falls. and it is
expected that feature will attract
many old timers, in addition to the
inducement held out by the gather
ing of the men and women who laid
the foundations of the common
wealth. The railroads have made
rate of fare and one-third for tht
meeting, and if the weather is pleas
ant it is the expectation that the
meeting will be one of the largest in
the history of the society.
r. E. Collins, president of the So
cety. is very enthusiastic over the
prospects of the meeting in his city.
Great Falls is going to do every
thing in her power to make tht meet
ing of the pioneers this year an
event in the history of the society,"
said Mr. Collins. Committees have
been named to arrange the different
details, and during the meeting there
will be trips to points of interest. a
reception and banquet for the pio-
neers. and a dance for the Sons and
Daughters. The program for the
meetings has not been fully compet-
ed yet but we will have as one feat

Middletown transcript., 1903-05-09
Communicated.
WHO Is RESPONSIBLE

MIDDLETowN, DEL, May Sth, 1903.
EDITOR OF The TRANscRIPT:-Just prior
to the town election OF Middletown last
spring great many taxpayers agltated
the question of electing a new Board OF
Town Commissioners with the view OF
improving the streets of our town, real :
ranging our financial circumstances and
making an assessment upon an equitable
basis.
The assessor takes an oath that he will
assess the property at what he thinks q
fair valuation. He goes forth and exam
ines each piece of property. He is not
governed by the previous assessment,
but puts on each piece OF property what
he considers to be fair valuation. He
turns his work in to the Town Commits
sioners and the Secretery of the Board, l
am creditably informed, expressed his
contempt for the assessment, and he with
two others takes the liberty to revise the
assessment as made by the assessor, puts
some properties where they have always
been and makes such other changes as he
sees proper.
Now, as taxpayer, would like to
know what is the use of town spending
SIS. 90 for an assessor, and then have the
Town Commissioners make the assess
ment, regardless of what he has done?
would also liketo know by what au-
thority they dared to change the assess
ment before it is revised by the appeal
board? Can you enlighten me on this
point? if so, you will not only confer a
favor upon me, but will also confer a
favor upon other taxpayers.
understand that two of the new Com
missioners were given no say whatever
in this matter, but that two of the old
commissioners with the assistance Of one
of the new took this liberty; and by the
way, two of those Commissioners were
directly interested in lowering their own
assessment, if they were not interested
in raising the assessment Of others.
Awaiting your advice, I am,
A TAXPAYER.
