Nearly All of 1902 Taxes
Have Been Paid.
TREASURER HAWLEl'S REPORT
Only About Two and One Half Per
Cent DeIinquent-Money for
Road Improvements.

County Treasurer Hawley has COM
pleted the work of checking up the 1902
tax rolls in his office and has made a
report to the county commissioners
According to the figures there remains
on the books uncollected for taxes for
the year 1902 the sum of s5,550.O2, that
being the smallest amount of uncol-
lected taxes reported for many years.
About 97h per cent Of the entire levy
has been paid in, and what remains
on the books will probably all be paid
in by the last Of February.
The personal property roll shows
that there is only about $500 in taxes
that the treasurer will not be able to
collect, which is very remarkable
showing.
The figures as taken from Treas
HaWley's report follow:

Gen. Dick has been elected in ONO
to I'll out the unexpired term OF Sen
ator Hanna and also for the succeed-
ing full term. In his address the
General was quite outspoken both
as to State and National affairs.
He declared his fealty to Gov. Her
rick and President Roosevelt, and
his intention to work in harmony
with Senator Foraker, the latter OF
which Senator Hanna did not DO.
Gen. Dick sees in the recent election
in Ohio an endorsement OF what he
denominates the Republican idea Of
continued protection to American in
dustry and labor, sound finance,
expanding trade, increasing com
merce, increased navy and other
matters. 1t may be that Gen. Dick ;
vision is more or less cloudy, but If
these are the views OF the people. OF
Ohio, it must be understood that
Ohio is not the country, and the
whole country passes upon these
questions this fall and it is more
than likely it will decide that the al
fairs OF the country will be more So
cure in the control of another politi-
cal party.

RUsSIAS GREAT BLUNDER

That Russia is up against prop

she mas apparently heretofore antiel-
. pated, is evident from the tone oil all
expressions reaching us from thai
quarter. 1t is hardly conceivable
that Russia could underestimate the
efficiency OF the japanese land or sea
forces. They have been too recently
tried and their worth has been too
clearly demonstrated to admit Of
doubt on this point, but there Is nj
tie doubt that Russia believed that
when the final test came that
the whole civilized world would rally
to her support against the dangers
of the yellow peril" Russia claims
TO have been the barrier and shield
between the white man and the Mon
golian. She evidently believed that

Forthcoming. 1t is evident, assu0se-
ouent events have clearly demon
strated. that the civilized world, with
the exception OF Russia, has failed to
recognize the imminence OF the vel
low peril" and regards its danger as
purely imaginary. Russia displayed
considerable ingenuity in bringing up
the yellow peril as such menace
to all Europe that they oughttounlte
for common safety, but the nations
recognized theinsincerity OF the call
and declined to aid in the little game
she had planned to extend her pos
sessions to the sea Now that this
plan has failed to work, Russia has
lost her temper and all the nations
who have not shown sympathy Tor
her are the object other displeasures.
Russia now recognizes the fact that
she must fight it out alone, and that
Japan has as many and as strong
friends as she has.

The free lance. (Fredericksburg, Va.) 1885-1926, 1904-03-05

The prize winners in oratory at
Princeton in the annual Baird con
test Wednesday were William Woods,
OF Philadelphia, who took the Col
lege Man in Politics" and Hugh +.
Scott, OF Chicago, whose subject was
"Lynching and the Negro" Hail
ing from Chicago, it is quite likely he
took for his theme matter be knows
but little about, and spoke to an au-
dience who was no better informed.
He no doubt appealed to the sympa-
thy OF his auditors in picturing the
swinging or burning brute, but was
perfectly silent as to the helpless vic
sim robbed OF her honor, her body
lascerated with knife or razor, and
she left for dead. Or the murdered
victims whose bodies we're burned in
their own homes, while the murderer
escaped by the light OF the burning
building. These brutal outrages
could hardly have played any part
ia the Grafton.
