Now if Aguinaldo sinned then that arch-rebel-guerilla, Moseby, was a ten fold greater sinner and your party dis- posed of him by appointing him to sev. eral important office and giving front seat in the party because he joined the republicans.

As for Thompson, there may be reasons-not-to-be-mention ed here, why he should want to get out Perhaps Thompson can get anything passed down at Harrisburg as he fntimates, that he would ask for earned “gang.” The reason given for this movement is some recognition from the on the ground that Philipsburg is threat ened with unfair taxation. That would be a great wrong. The question is whether there is good ground for such fears, for the law has a remedy for any such at. tempt ; and further there is no reason In Philipsburg dare not, not, be why such a game should be played the assessment cannot, should discriminated against. Property out there should not be taxed beyond what is right but stand upon an equality with the rest of the county. If too high, lower it; if too low, put it up with the rest. The complaint should be looked into as the law directs and we have every confidence in our board of Commissioners that they will be guilty of no suc h act of oppression when a proper investigation Is made. Clearfield county has the same tax laws and financially is not in as creditable standivg as our county, thanks to a just, honest, and capable board of Commis sioners.
