SE5AT0& HEEM50 LSD THE TAX
BiLL.
Editors Colvlbian :
Realizing that a false impression ex
isU among certain farmers of this
county as to my position on the ques
tion of Equalization of Taxation, I am
persuaded that a few words upon this
subject will not be amiss at this time.
I make the statement nou.
First. Because I am not a candi
date for anv office, and second, be
cause it cannot be charzed that I am
doing it to gain personal favor ; my
only object be;n? to correct, if possi
ble, a false impression created and
fostered by political enemies.
I hare no apology to make for hav
ing voted against what was known in
the last session of the Legislature, as
the "Taggart 1 ax BilL" I voted against
that B.ll because I believed it was un
constitutional and, in part, a: least,
burdensome and inquisitorial. I was
not alone in that belief, but was joined
by other democrats who not only vot
ed against the Bill but spoke against
it.
Senator George Ross, the leader on
the democratic side, made the most
vigorous speech against the Bill that
was made during the session. Among
other things, he said, See Legislative
Record, Vol I, 1891, pg. 2633
"Now, Sir, representing an agricul
al district; answerable for my vote up
on this subject to my constituents,
who are among the farmer class in this
community to a very great extent, I
say this Bill does them great injustice,
and that no Senator speaking in the
interests of farmers will dare to vote
for this amendment of the Senator
from Westmoreland."
The amendment spoken of was to
substitute a section of the Taggart Bill
for a section of the Boycr Bill.
It is a singular coincidence that the
three democratic Senators Ross, Hall
and myself, recently selected by the
State Convention as Delegates at-Large
to the National Convention at Chica
go were three of those who voted
. against this substitution.
And besides this, it was an open
secret at Harrisburg, last winter that
certain republican Senators were using
their best efforts to place the Gover
nor in a false light upon this very ques
tion. The scheme was this.
By joining with certain democrats
who were honest in their belief that
the democratic Senators should favor
the "Taggart Bill" for political reasons
enough votes could be secured to send
the Bill to the Governor in such an
imperfect shape that he would be com
pelled to veto it. The cry could then
be raised that a democratic Governor
was against Equalization of Taxation
and all the blame be placed upon his
shoulders.
Had not these plans been forseen by
certain democratic Senators, myself
among the number, the scheme would,
no doubt, have gone through, and I
, feel justified in saying that I had posi
tive, direct and rebable information
that if the Senate should pass the
"Taggert Bill" as it was proposed, that
the Governor would be compelled to
veto it on the ground of its unconstitu
tionality, if for no other reason.
The friends of the bill refused to
alter it. Along with other democratic
Senators I then felt it my duty to re
fuse to vote for the Bill in the sha;e it
then was. In other words, the posi
tion we took is to be accounted for on
two grounds.
First. Because the bill was in it
self faulty.
Second. Because we were unwill
ing that Governor Pattison should be
placed in a false light upon this vital
question. Like Senator Ross and
the Governor himself I believe
that land bears an undue burden of
taxes, that corporations do not bear
their share, that a revision of the tax
laws is necessaay. I am willing to
concede that the "Taggert Bill" had
many commendable features.
But I know that it contained much
that should have been stricken out.
and the friends of the Bill in their vain
efforts at forcing it upon the people in
its crude and imperfect shape and re
fusing to allow reasonable and, as we
deemed necessary, amendments there
to, succeeded in becoming the worst
enemies to t!ie Bill, and its failure to
become a law can be attributed direct
to them.
It is simply a piece of political dema
gogisra to assert that all those who
voted against the "Taggert Bill" were
enemies to the Equlization of Taxa
tion, and before any man should , at
tempt to criiicize such a vote, let him
first post himself as to what the Bill
contained at the lime it was offeiei to
the Senate for its aproval
How many of you bare ever read
the B.ll or know what it contains? Ee
slor to blame, therefore, when you
have nothing to guide you but the
uue misrepresentations of political
demagogues who live and thrive upon
the deceptions they practice upon oth
er people.
Grant Hiring.
April Joth, 1892.
WHY irtDTHET DO IT.
By he decisive vote of 1 0 to 12
the Democratic County committee
adopted the following resolution on
rebruary u.
"JittolceJ, by the Standing Committee
of Columbia county in Convention
assembled, that we instruct our dele
gates to the state convention to vote
for and use all honorable means to
elect Hon. Grant Herring as one of
the delegates at large to the National
Convention, believing that Columbia
County with her Urge and steady
democratic majority at all tiroes for
the democratic candidate.is entitled to
representation at large in the National
Convention."
By a bare majority of one, a similar
resolution was adopted instructing
thera to rote for William Krickbaum
or district delegate.
Notwithstanding the strongly ex
pressed will of the people in favor of
Senator Herring, we are informed by
reliable authority, that A. D. Seely,
Jesse Rittenhouse and Thomas Boran
refused to vote for Senator Herring in
committee meeting, and did all in
their power to defeat iiis selection.
Rohr M'Henry and Dr. F. W.
Redeker were true to their trust, and
voted for him as instructed.
Fortunately the Senator had -nough
friends in the state to secure his nomi
nation, despite the action of the
three delegates from his own county,
and he was chosen by a vote in the
convention of which he may well feel
proud, only three other persons se
curing a higher vote.though there were
twenty four names before the convent
ion. Senator Herring is a close
friend to Governor Pattison, Secretary
Harrity and attorney General Hensel,
and it was their wish that he should be
placed on the ticket as a deiegate-at-large,
and it was done.
The action of three delegates named
can only be accounted for on the
ground that Boss Krickbaum issued
his mandate to them not to vote for
Herring, and they dared not disobey.
The orders of the boss were superior
to the expressed will of the people,
and the people were betrived. It is
well known that Krickbaum attempted
to control delegates from other
counties in the Senatorial district
against Herring, but they weie not his
pliant tools, and his effort failed.
How much longer are such things
to be permitted by the Democratic
party of Columbia county ? How
long will they continue to keep in
povir and place a man who never
hesitates to go against the expressed
will of the party whenever it suits his
own selfish purposes to do so?
When a man who has held office for
half a life time and drawn pay from
the public advises and commands a
violation of party instructions, he is
establishing a very bad precedent, and
one that might react upon himself.
The success of Hood's Sarsaparilla
is because it possesses true merit, and
no claim is made for it which is not
fully supported.

Judge Kice Sustained.
THE SALOON MEN OF HAZI.ETON WILL PAY
ONLY $ 1 59 LICENSE.
There are some saloon keepeis in
Hazteton who hare reason to regret
the fict that they didn't take out their
licences.
The Supreme Court has decided
that the fee shall be only $150 and
therefore County Treasurer McGroarty
will have to refund $350.
I he matter came up before the Su
preme Court to day and that Court
sustained the opinion of Judge Rice
that the license fee should be but $150
instead of $500.
hue it is a matter of some regret
to know that the rity will lose the
amount of money it counted upon,
still it shows the wisdom of C W.
Kline, Esq- in taking his clients' case
to the Supreme Court and it pro es
that the opinion of Tucje Rice can be
counted upon as a clear and just ex
position of the law.
So the saloon men hive reason to
be happy. llazleton Sentinel.
