specIal to rhe EvenIng JOurnal.


equinocital reform storm" visited New
Castle yesterday when Governor Lea
Lea signed the bill dividing the city into
four wards. That means no more dead
head taxables in the city.
Every man in New Castle in future must
pay his taxes. The tax collector has the
power to attach wages in order to collect
Them BY this 1t can be seen that the head
tax will pay the interest on $4,000 annual
" and with good streets there will be no
necessity for an outlay Of the present
amount used so the next City Council can
arrange to keep the tax rate down.
Hereafter when the collector gets his
duplicate he will demand the taxes from
every registered citizen and upon failure
of the latter to pay them the collector is
empowered under the new law to attach
the mans wages.
