Grant Herring, of Bloomsburg, who
was nominatod for State Sonator of
the XXIV Sonatorial district, by the
district, ODnfuronco at Willlamsport on
October -Hh, was born in Centerville,
Columbia county, on tha 19th day of
May, 18G2 and lived in Sohnylkill
oounty from 18G4 to 1876. In 187G
he moved to Bloomsburg, prepared for
college at the Bloomsburg State Nor
mal Sohool, admitted to Lafayette col
lege in September, 1879, graduated
from tho same in June 1883. Studied
law, was admitted to the Columbia
county bar February 2nd, 1885,' pract
iced in partnership with tho Hon. E. R.
Ikler, now president Judge of tho
Twenty-sixth district until ho was el

has been practioic; alone. Ho was
nominated for StaVo Senator in Col

The eleotioi of every democrat on
the county ticket is so certain that it is
not necessary to urge democrats to go
to tho polls next Tuoiday on eir
account. But there i another and
moro important roaaon why eyery
democrat should voto on Novcmbor
4th. The contest for the governor
ship is a warm one. Tiio republicans
are leaving no stono unturned to pro-
euro the election of Delamater and
they will turn out to a man. Tho
election now depends upon tho oo
tid) of tho democrats. " Tho revolt
agaiuBt Delamater and Quayism has
assumed such proportions, that if tho
democrats do their duty tho election of
Pattison is suro. In Alleghenoy county
six out of seven republican newspapers
are for Pattijon, and Chris Magee, for
many years a republioau leader is in
tho revolt- Thomas Marshall another
republican, is stumping tho Btate for
Pattison. Every whero it is the same,
and wo know of a number of ropubli
cans in this ounty who will vole for
Pattison. In Philadelphia tho Lincoln
Independent Republicans are doing
valiant service, and the fact tbat tho
Delamater managers aro frightoned is
shown in thoir action last week in
cancelling many ingageraents of Dela
mater and party through tho state and
keeping him in Philadelphia. A Demo,
oratio victory is within roach. Demo
cratio apathy alone- will loso tho day.
Every vote is needed. Voto yourself
and then see that your neighbor does
tho same.

It was to remedy this gross inequal
ity and injustice that tho Farmers
Grange Tax bill No. 10 proposed to
correct in the session of tho Legisla
ture of 1889. It was not Intended to
rob tho ownora of poreonat and coipo-
rate properly, but to distribute tbo
burdens equitably between an too in
dustrics of the Stato, and would havo
relieved local taxation to the extent of
SO.000,000. This is tho bill tbat Sena
tor Delamater assured tho Stato
Grange Committee should be reported
favorably from the Senato Finance
Committee, which bo acknowledged in
his Williams' Grove speech, that ho
is now distributing to tho farmers of
the Stale, which is nothing but an
afterthought and apology for voting
against the bill, when he happens to
want the larmer s vote to elect mm
Governor. How can Senator Dela
mater, or any politician, accuso mo of
unfairness when I was simply carry.

Previous to the adjbtirument of the

a committee of Typographical Union
No. 2 waited upon Stato Chairmau

stand that Mr. Cook, the business
manager of the Press, desired a con
ference with the committee of the Fed
eration.
On Friday, October 24th, asub-com

President of the Pennsylvania branch
of the American Federation of Labor,
and Win. II. Barrett, Secretary of tho
United Labor League of Philadelphia,
wont to the Press office for the purp
oso of oarrvina out the instructions of
tho convention.
Mr. Cook, tho business manager of
the I'ress, was seen at the enlranoo to
his private othoe, and, although ap
oroaohed iu a gentlemanly way by tho
committee, flew into a rage, and deuied
any desire for a conference by calling
ono of tbo committee a liar. Wh'.lo
this committee was disposed to swallow
tho insult for tho sake of tho men they
found it impossible to bring tbo Press
manager to a reasonable understanding
of tho dlgnitv and importance of tho
occasion. Mr. Cook would not reason
and in a short time the committee
withdrew.

Numerous circulars aro being dis
tribnted by political managers, en
deavoring to explain away and apolo
gize tor the vote ot certain senators
against the Farmers' Qrango Tax bill
No. 10, whioh was defeated in the
last session of tbo State Senate. These
managers also, at the same lime, en
deayor to read me a lecture that I was
ovorslepplug the bounds of propriety
as Master of tho Htate urange, by
dragging partisan politics into tho
Order.
Were this only a question of party
supremacy as to which politioal party
should carry the election, it would
scarcely bo deserving of a passing
thought, hut graver responsibilities are
involved.
For ten years the farmers, through
their Grange organization in Pennsyl
vania, have been investigating tho
oauses of oppressive taxation on farm
lands, and havo discovered the gross
est kind of inequalities in tho provis
ions of the law and the methods of as
sessing and codecting taxes.
ihey have shown by tactB taken
from official reports of the Secretary of
Internal Affairs that the aggregate
value of real estate, as returned by
oinoiai reports, amounts to $I,HUU,!S3M,
SC1, and pay an average tax of 18.8
mills, or over ijaa.uuu.uuu, while tney
show from the same, report and that of
the Auditor (ieneral; that corporate
property is valued at 31,800,000,000,
to which must be added persoual prop
erty amounting to not lees than $200,
000,000, making the grand total esti
mated value of corporate and personal
property $2,000,000,000 that really
pays only an average tax of 2 mills.
Then there aro collected for Stato
purposes from mercantile pursuits, col
lateral inheritance, fees, escheats, li
censes, cto, $3, -179,01)0, making in
round numbers $7,000,000 collocted
from over $2,000,000,000 peraoual and
corporate property as compared with
$33,000,000 colleottd from $1,800,
000,000 real estato.
This is tho real situation of tho real
estate owners and renters (at they
must pay tbo tax on real estate), as
compared tvith holders of corporate
and personal property. The Commit
tee of the Stato Grange commenced
their investigation at the time when
Robert E Pattison vas Governor of
reuDsyivaniai ho did a 1 in his power
to assist the State Grange Legislative
Uommitteo in tueir investigations by
Uauitig a request, upon the Auditor
General for detailed statements of
facts and revenues oollectcd by tho
Stato from the different industerlest
ho also iaued a requost upon tho See
retary of the Commonwealth, for in
formation as to the amount of icoreaso
of oorporate proporty since last report
of Auditor ueneraii in this way the
Co in mi too wero enabled to determine
vaiuo of
"that it was unnecessary as the record
would speak for itself."
1 have no interest in this contest
from a partisan standpoint, but I have
the right as a farmer, a duty I owe to
tho State Grange, to make known the
actual facts in tho case. I am not
even claimed as a partisan, but tho
State Grange has for ten years formu
lated debtuto and well denned prin
ciples on Stato and local taxation,
which wero incorporated in a bill,
which I was instructed, as Master of
the Stato Grange, to bring before the
State Legislature, and to use tho en
tire iniluenoo of the Order in tho
State to secure its ei.actmout into law
I havo carried out the instructions of
the State Grange, with tho undivided
support of tho entire organization, and
camo within ono voto of placing it on
the statute books of tho Stato as tho
law of the land. The mpousibility of
tho failure lies wilb Mr. Delamater
and other Senators who voted against
the measure.
If farmers will re-elect theso me",
they will just as surely defeat their
legislation in the future as in the past;
what claims have they upon the farm
er when thuy are opposed to the p in
ciples the farmer advocates) if they
were honest men they would not ask
for tho support of those whoso inter
ests they opposed while in publio po
sitions. The importance of the impending
political State contest oannot be over
estimated. Farmers do not depend
upon what tho present State Revenue
Commission may prepare, even Bhould
thoy succeed in reporting a just an J
equitable bill, tbat will not make it a
law; it will require tho force of nnm
bers to give it a constitutional major
ity in the House and Senate and tho
signature of a Governor to maka it a
law.
What farmers must do is to lay
aside partisan bigotry and voto for
favorablo men. See that every favor
able voter is out to the polls. If
farmers aro to secure redress from a
burdensome- and iniquitous tax system
they must vote for their interolB as
other olassess do. They cannot do it by
electing men who are opposed to their
interests, farmers Bhould not allow
themselves to be alarmed as to the
tariff issue. Settle that on your Con
gressional ticket; it has nothing to do
with our Stato tax issue.
I have no personal feelings against
theeo men, but their votes have been
on the wrong sido for farmers, and it
is my duty to present the facU m tfcey
exist irrespective of party considera
tions. Respectfully,
Leonard Rhone.
