• REk3llll Csi TAX GATREAINO.--HOM John
Stranahan, one of our representatives at
Harrisburg, has introduced a bill into the
Legislanne which proposes to do away with
the present system of tax collecting in our
Co., and to substitute for it that which has so ,
been successfully practised in Ohio and other
States. It provides for paying the Treasurer
a fixed salary and bat him collect the tax
in person, visiting each portion of the coun
ty at stated periods for that purpose, and
levying an addition to the sum due in each
case when the tax is not paid by the allotted
period. Mr. Stranahan has given much at
tention to the subject, and claims that by
16 plan a yearly saving of from fifteen to
venty thousand dollars will he effected to
l i e tax-payers of the county. It is well known
that the cost of collection under the present
system is a heavy item, and that the money
is obtained in such an uncertain way that no
calculation can be made as to the time when
it will be ready for use. As a contrast, Mr.
Stranahan has shown us some statements .
from several counties in Ohio, by which the
average cost of collection in that State is
found to be only nine-tenths of a cent on the
dollar, with some insignificant expenses over
and above the Treasurer's salary. One im
portant result, also, consists in the fact that
the taxes( are mostly secured by a certain
(late, and the public (Andra, are enabled' to
make their appropriations accordingly. In
answer to the objection, that the delinquent
4 taxes will be eery heavy tinder the new.
plan. Mr. S. exhibits figures to prove that, on
the contrary, they will be less than at pres
ent. In Trumbull county, Ohio, $217,000 of
taxes was levied in IS6B, of which only $7,500
remained uncollected, which is contended to
be greatly below the sum in (mown county.
We are informed that a calculation made on
Saturday satisfactorily convinced several
gentlemen who have hitherto opposed the
bill that the city alone would be a gainer by
$5,000 under its provisions. If it will effect
even a-half of what is claimed for it, we
hope to see the bill adopted, and the people
will say to Mr. Stranahan, "Well done, good
and faithful servant."
While on this subject, we feel it a pleasure
to say that Mr. Stranahan is apparently prov
ing himself a most efficient guardian of the
intcretat4orthemunty. Too many of our As
semblymen have acted av if they were sent
to Harrisburg merely to advance mere Cor
porate and personal interests, bit Mr. Strap
ahan seems ever on the alert to secure re
form, economy and a better administration
of the public affairs of the couutY, In say
ing this,Wi: will of course he understood as
referring only to his action on local Matters,
for some of his votes on party kituei we
mist decidedly condemn: -
"AN Ivo! FOB Tax-raynns."—Senator
Lowry recently read in place an ,act to . au
thorize the Commissioners of Erie county to
open the 'Flaw n t or James Foreman, deed,
who was tax collector of Corry, for the year
1865. The Gazette, in commenting upon I
this, says that Mr. Foreman got so far be
hind in his returns that year_ as to legally
disqualify him fhr• re:appointment the fol
lowing year, and his son, E. P. Foreman,
•was'appointec, hut. the father eontidited col
lecting the taxes and applied the funds, as
rapidly as collected, to the reduction of sthe
deficit on his own duplicate. His death, In
1867,found-him still behind to the amount of
$5,732, but his account was cancelled and
this deficit charged to E. P. Foreman. The
Gazette reasons from this that the account of
James Foreman should remain closed, and '
E. I'. Foreman compelled to pay the out
standing account. The Republican, on the
contrary, alleges that it would he but just
and proper to open the account of the . , for
mer, as there is no law permitting - a tax col•
lector of 1866 to apply the taxes of that year
to the defaulting duplicate of the preceding,
one, and that if this has been done the Corn-_,
missioners - of 1866 lre placed in a ,verY 4%lE
ward position. We shall anxiously' await
further developments in this matter, and as
nearly $6,000 is a considerable - item to the
tax-payers of this county,we,can only hope
the twitter wilt be arranged in a manner
that will be satisfactory to the public.
. Since the above was in type we learn that,
the bill introduced by Mr. Lowry payed the
Senate on Tuesday last.

Poor Taxes in IRan and 909.
We give below a certified statement of the
amount of Poor Taxes levied in each dis
trict of the county for the- years 18(18 and
1860, which will be of general interest to our
citizens. Heretofore the amount of tax
levied has been given to the public in such
a shape that it was impossible to ascertain
the amount specially required for Poor ex
penses trom each district. The table below
will enable the people of every locality to
see tile exact sum they are called. upon to
pay in . the support of the Poor, and enable
them to form More intelligent conclusions
upon the various propositions on the subject
()four Poor expenses.' It will be a source of
gratification to the public to know that the
Poor Tax for this year will be ten .thousand
dollars less than it was in 18(18, the enor
mous figures of which year were the first to
awaken attention to the necessity of reform.
Whether this reduction is due to the agita
tion of the topic by the Press, or to an actual
falling di in the demands upon the public
botinty, we leave for others who are better

discharged. Subsequently Wells demanded
$17.40, alleged costs on the case, anti Grines,
after a fruitless attempt to raise the amount
in various quarters, .was compelled to get
that sum from-his Wife, who was lying quite

such a manner as to enable persons who de

safe motion, to skim over the ice at the rate
of thirty Sqorty miles^per hour, hy . simply

A SUGGESTION. —There are three appli

the applicants that they Should Submit their
names to a general vote of the citizens of that
party, the two receiving a minority of the
votes to withdraw all claims to the position
in favor of, the one whom a majority of the
citizens would vote for.: Two of the candi
dates refused to accede to this proposition
and the third was willing to abidp . by the
result. As there are several Radial appli
cants for the post-office in this city would it
not be a good idea to submit their clitims to
a vote of the Radical citizens Y* -

the water, buthbat if this expense could be
defrayed by the city The introduction of the
water would become rno:e general, and the
additonal water rents would soon repay the

A. SLICAIT MIBTASg.-.-The Glielte is in
error in stating that we advised "our friends"

that paper that announced him its "the'elo

and that, "of the few lectures yet to he deliv
ered none would be better than his." This.
coming from* midi It source, was enough to
give rise to suspicion among "our friends,"
and hence they thought it advisable to keep
away. So many Radical fanatics are travel

we do not feel it incumbent upon ourselves

It is generallk understood that Tea Is retailed for a larger advance on Its original co.t than
