CrjlDg Need et Reform.
On Saturday, April 24, 1SS0, the iNTEr -.
lieeucer devoted a column and n quarter
of its space te showing the hardships
caused by the municipal lien laws under
the present system of administering them.
On Tuesday last, the Tcir Era in a strong
editorial took the same ground that has
been maintained by this journal, namely,
that there was a crying necessity for im
mediate reform.
In the Intkllieenc en article adverted
e, an analysis was made of Municipal
Lien Decket Ne. 3, In which were found
the latest cases of liens filed for unpaid
city taxes, Running from rage 1 1 te page
81 'were found CS liens, the sums in ques
tion ranging from 00 cents te a little less
than $100. On the bigger half of these.
execution was issued en the judgment aud
a sum of costs piled up that dwarfed the
original tax bill Inte insignificance.
Onoef the cases pointed out at that time
was a municipal lien of (5.S2 against a
property In the Seventh ward, that being
the amount of city tax assessed against that
real estate for 1SS0. A set fa was issued
te February term 1 SSfi. A reference te Un
common pleas appearance docket showed
hew the owner of the property paid, in ad
dition te J5.S2 taxes, the following bill of
costs :
Sheriff. .... 1316
VlalnilfTs original (will; 5.1"
City solicitor ... soe
l'rothenotary 5 iu
Total JL-Htj
It will be observed that practically the
sheriff gets his fee for nothing, for there
has been no sale of the property. The
prothenotary is allowed tl.'X for entering
the lien and $1.75 for issuing the writ.
What the extra 10 cents is for nobody
knows but the fellow who makes out the
bill. The mystery deepens about the $-5.20
which the same official whacks into the
end of the bill. The city solicitor gobbles
up $3 as his share of the spoils.
New, if this sort of thing was necessary,
there could be no lust cause of complaint.
But a municipal lien for taxes is a lien for
five years and during that time it has pri
ority te any ' recognizance, mertg.igp,
judgment, debt, obligation or responsibility
which the said real estate may become
charged with or liable te, from and after
the passage of this act." Se reads the act
fsreh 13, 1S79. And the same act in its
second section says concerning the munici
pal tax lien : " Which taxes shall be duly
indexed as a lien thereon, the costs thereof
te be charged against the said owner and
net te exceed in any case one dollar."
Here it will be seen that the law pro
vided that the lien was te be safe for five
yeais without the issue of a scire arias,
and the costs te the property owner were
net te exceed one dollar. Yet the records
show that In nearly all the municipal liens
a wild rush is made te issue a ici. fa., and
fe "taujlundering of the peer by a big bill of
costs ErJgun.
The latest case of injustice reported is
that of Mr. Geerge llumphrevllle, of this
city, whose tax amounted te J7.11, and
whose total costs were $17.97.
Councils ought te pass an enlinauce that
no scire facias may be issued or. a lien for
unpaid municipal taxes until the expiration
of four years from the time of its being
filed, unless where the special exigencies of
the case require, when the consent of the
finance committee et councils Blieuld be
obtained in writing.
In any event, the present systematic
plundering of the peer should be stepped.
Inside liar History.
Sir. Roynton, the well known conespond cenespond conespend
ent, has struck a rich lead in uncovering
the true character of the men whom the
civil war ha3 driven te the surface and la
beled great. The most notable of tliee
men in the rich rewards that he reaped was
General Grant, the favorite of fortune in
the latter half of his life, though he had no
premise of his luck in Its first half. He was
a captain in the army some years before
the war, but was compelled te resign bis
commission because of lepeated ami dis
graceful drunkenness. When the war
broke out he was little better than a loafer
in Gatena. He applied at McUJellan's head
quarters at Cincinnati for a position en
his staff, which he would have received if
McCIellan had net been nb3ent ; and before
he returned Grant had been summoned te
take a command elsewhere.
Hiscardlnal point of geed fortune after
this was in obtaining the services of Jehn
A. Rawlins, a young lawyer at Galena,
whom he Induced te take a position en his
staff, and who was his chief of staff and
chief counseller and protector, until he
died as his secretary of war. Rawlins was
a strong man, of sound judgment, with 1.0
knowledge of military affairs when he was
thrust into them. He seems te have been
an earnest und unselfish man, who gave te
Grant his very best cervice and all the
& glory of its result.
s .
urant's weakness for liquor was net
conquered by the stars upon his shoulder
and the fame he wen. He was drunk after
Jionelsen, and drunk, andthieatening te

7, iwatedly violated the pledge. Roynton
piate s letter ftddreaed en one occasion te
Grant by Rawlins, which shows very clear
ly hew the Biiperle man was In the subor
dinate place. Rawlins said te Giant that
If he did net intend te keep his pledge te
abstain from liquor, he, Rawlins, desired
te be detached from his command. Grant
yielded. He could net afTerd te part with
se true and wise a friend, who gavejilra
self up te him and helped him with wise
counsel in every situation in which he was
placed. It is easy te understand hew Grant
would have failed miserably but for Rawlins
te save him from himself. The best been
any man can have is a friend se wise and
se unselfishly devoted ; and Grant would
have been small indeed net te have been
great when se supplemented.
When Rawlins died and he undertook te
bepresidentef this great people, he failed
fearfully. He trusted men as he had
trusted Rawlins ; but they were net Raw.
linses. He would have steered him straight ,
they steered him crooked. They sought te
inake profit out of him ; Rawlins sought
his profit. He is Rawlins' figure lnhls lnhls
ter ; iv great general because he had a
greater man bound te him in Siamese
union.
During all the time that Circuit was reap
ing in the field of glory Rawlins was by his
side : complimenting his talents, keeping
his simplicity from imposit-en and his
weakness from yielding. AVe can under
stand hew it was when the great pillar of
support fell away from him, that he be
came the victim of the evil men who
crowded around him as president ; and
hew. when he came again te private sta
tion, he shocked the world with an exhibi
tion of confiding innoceuce that was with
out parallel in the lives of its heroes.

General llsiver for the Bid death visitation
that has come upon him se tesn after his in

noieever what It styles the transfer of the
most Important mechanical Industry from
Pennsylvania te the Seuth. As the grain
growing centre of the country has moved te
the West, and the perk packing business
from Cincinnati te Chicago ; and as Southern
cotton mills have undersold their New Eng
land competitors, se It Is claimed the iron
cenUe Is new belng transferred te Alabama,
and that Birmingham can te-day make the
price of iron for this continent, and that
Pennsylvania's supremacy In iron is gene
forever !
They claim that Iren can be made cheaper
for three reason", the Ju.xtapoltleu or iron,
limestene and coal, the single ownership of
all three by the same operators, and the ei
cellenceaud cheapness el negre labor. With
regard te the last, it is said that negre labor
is equil te any and less liable te strike. It
is conceded that Pennsylvania has the ad
vantage el being nearer tbe market and hav
ing a large home demand, but that the Indus
trial development of the Seuth will create a
home market In time. Immense volumes of
capital are going out from Birmingham for
investment, and net less than 110,000,000 is
invested In lean and building companies In
that city.
