That is the question
Go up to the tax collectors office and hear the complaints Of
the citizens who have to pay exorbitant taxes
Go in and hear the pful tales Of widows and the poorer

The county court Is kept busy answering questions why taxes
are 80 high and cannot satisfy the people.
II should be stated that this county has had careful
administration and the levy Of taxes for county purposes is
low
But the state levy the city levy and the school levy are all
higher than before and hence the aggregate very high

chance about rafting for cigars,

He sells the goods and gets the

GREAT FIGHT AT zUARA

Rome, Aug. After terrific land
and sea attack, the Italians yesterday
captured Zuara, the last Tripolitan coast
town retained by the Turks.
Official announcement here gave few
details OF the engagement. From the
absence of news it was feared the losses
were heavy.
Zuara was supply station for the
Turks inland forces and as such it was
Of the utmost Importance to hold the
town. 1t was strongly fortified and de-
Tended by large and well.trained force.
That the Italian sailors, bombarding
the Turks from the Mediterranean. suf-
fered seriously was not believed aere,
but the troops ashore could only have
overcome Turkish resistance by rushing
the brea stwOrks, which must have been
attended by much bloodshed
With their last outlet TO sea cut
off. it was asserted that the Turks and
Arabs inland could speedily be starved
into surrender. Some supplies might be
smuggled to them through British terri
ritory, but not enough seriously to pro-
long the struggle.
Originally Zuara's inhabitants num-
bered 10000 but il has been largely de-
populated since the war broke out.

Summers Coming to America.

Johnny Summers, recent winner of
the British weIterweight champion
ship, is the latest English ring celeb
rity to contemplate an invasion of the
United States.
Undeterred by the recent untimely
fate of his two compatriots, Bombar-
der Wells and Sid Burns, Summers
declares that he Is ready and willing to
teach the ''blawsted' Yankees how to
take joke and to prove that English
fistic supremacy still is in the ascend
ancy. In one division at least.
Mike Gibbons and Ray Bronson are
the two Americans that Summers Is
particularly eager to hook up with,
but any good opponent that will draw
the shekels will not be overlooked or
turned down The only advance ulti-
matum that Summers makes Is that
the weight must be 147 pounds. the
British scale.
Summers will bear with him the
Lord Lonsdale belt. emblematic of the
English welter championship. The
trophy was won by Summers on June
81 before the National Sporting club
of London, when in the thirteenth
round he sent his principal contender
for the title. Arthur Everenden. reeIing

The first is Mai. w J. Cameron, the

a ball game Friday, and the third the re-
porter with whom the friend gossiped.
The club was organized by Major Cam
eron. The year was 1856; the scene, Mont
eomery. And thus Montgomery has adj
ditional reasons TO feel proud of its rec

how came Major Cameron to organize the
club is another story, but well worth the
