THOMPSON. .1 ury Commissioner. Ci- CHHIPTY. Taxes and the Remedies for TTieir Collection. The law relating to taxe- and the provided for their collection W imperfectly understood. It was oid.y recently that an exchang-- came to os with the general >tatemer. that under mi Act of 1 a certificate by the collector of the amount due could be filed with the PrOthoUotary of the county and entered on the record as a lien against the real estate of a de linquent tax payer. Thi.-> as a general proposition, is incorrect and misleading. Titles axe nut a lien on real estate in this Suite; except in two or three comit ies wWere they are made so by special statutes. and the provisions of the Act of IS9O, are expressly limited to count ies having such special tax lien laws. Under the gem-ral laws taxes are not a lieu un real estate, and can only become a lien in the absence of sufficient person al property on the premises of tae de linquent tax payer and a return of the land to (he Commissioners' office by the Collector within the time limited by statute. In the absence of such return the collector has 110 recourse to the land and a purchaser is not liable for the unpaid taxes. The collector can onlv seeurd%l lien by making such re turn in coiftpliance with the provisions of the statute and failing in this he has recourse .only to the personal property the delinquent, may have, and in th" of personal property to the body uf the debtor. Or after the time limit ed by his warrant has expired he ma\ britig his action at law and recover u judgment for the amount, but if the de linquent has conveyed or encumbered his real estate before he secure# a jadg uieift and lien against the land bis muMftly to enforce payment out of the land is gome. The warrant issued by the Count> Commiesioaers authorizes the Collector to collect the amount of taxes assessed against each person whose name appears in the duplicate, if the same remains un paid by seizing the goods and chattels of the delinquent and if sufficient goods and rhattels cannot be found to pay and sati-fy the taxes and the delinquent is the owner of re:U testate it is made his duty to return such real estate with a description it to tbe County Cornnii sioners: and in the absence of Ixitli real and personal estate he may during the life Of the warrant seize the body of the delinquent rfhd convey hirn to the conn .4* ifdl wh>i» he must remain until he pay* the tmcm or until he is discharged by the Court. Lt is a common error, however, to suppose that a Constable or #ny officer of the law can at the instance of t^i 1 ■ Collector, seize the body of a delinquent and commit him to jail. No one has such authority but the Col lector or his duly appointed deputy, whose appointment must be approved by either tin- District Treasurer or the Comity Treasurer, and this requirement is as essential to authorize a person Other than the Collector to seize the g<HKls and chattels of the delinquent as to seize hiw body. Any person or officer who seizes the goods and chattels or body of a delinquent tax payer without such authority is a trespasser, and is liable t«> the person whose goods and ehuttelsof body is seized, in damages for an illegal .seizure or arrest and im prisonment. liut th© delinquent is not table to arrest aud imprisonment if lie bas,HutlicjeuJ. real an<i personal estate out of which the taxes can be made and if ftiere was sufficient personal property" An the premises of the delin qoerf* arid tTie^'ollector has neglec ted his out}' and 4Mfe<l to seedre the taxes out of such personal property, or if tlie personal paspvrty was insufficient to pay tlie taxes aud the Collector lias nega ted the real estate, and by siujli uagUjct bo has List his remedy ' and recourse upon either class of prop erty, he cdffxiot then resort to a seiznre of the body of the delinquent to make good Ids neglect. It Is only in ear then* Is nMthkir real nor personal prop erty Sufficient to pay the taxes that he is authorised to .seize tin; body.

POLITICAL The Republican primary in W.oiung- ; ton County resulted in a jompldtP vic tor}" for the Antis. It was * Pegtilar landslide for Congressman!.\ff> - n.and the entire Anti Quay Uckdt Acheson c arried the®fcnning distftcts ' almost solidly, one precinct giving Mc Cracken and the Quay Legislative slate bat one vote. In Washington borough both faction? made the closing fight and a phenomenal vote was polled. There were some exciting scenes at a number of the polling places, and blood flowed in the second precinct Of the First ward: where several fights took place. The Acheron people had detectives in the various pulling places to see tlrat no repeaters were brought in by the Quay faction. In the contignons boroughs there wa- also a lively fig' ll - but Acheson j>toplr> won. Congressman E. F. Acheson. when seen that night and asked for an ex pression oif the result. said "The Republicans of Washington county have placed conscience above party .caucus where controlled by such men as Quay. The fisht in this comity was on the straight Quay and anti-Quay and the Republican electors have given their decision, from which there can be no appeal. It was a question of wheth er or not the j.arty iu .this county should be dominated by Quayism, and the an swer has been given. lam than satisfied with the large majority which has been given me and the anti-Quay candidate®." The r.nti-Quay candidates made their canvass on a platform of no Quay cau cus and at the convention Monday the following resolutions regarding State affairs wen- adopted. "ft We denounce and condemn the outrageous ballot frauds, shown to have b«-en perpetrated by the Quay machine in Philadelphia, as contrary to the most fundamental principles for which our party has always :»tood; and we repu iliate a leadership which needs and will sfoop to use such means to main tain its position. We declare it to lie the duty of our party in the State to free it*- reputation from this stain; and we demand at the hands of the next Legislature the enactment of smh stringent laws for the protection of the 1 rights of the honest voter at both prima ry and general elections, as will make forever impossilile such disgraceful vio lations of the just rights of the honest and law abiding citizens of the State. '•4. We feel with keenness the humiliation east upon us and our great State, by the pitiable spectacle present ed to the country, of the man. who was onoo recognized as her political leader, beggipg the United States Sen ate to violate the precedents of I'rt) ycaas and. in defiance of law. give him, on a governor's certificate, the seat in that body, in which the people have re fused longer to continue him. In our judgment the Senate will greatly lower itself in public esteem and respect if it yields to the nirvvamrntied interference with its judicial duties in this case. We ask at the hands of tlie Re publicans of the State the election to the high office of United States senator of a man ' Whose public and private eha'r.V-t'-r cannot be Impeached, whose ability has been proven, and whose hon esty and wiltingne*« to faithfully und ims«H<My represent the interests of his constituents are beyond question. To this end, we hereby instruct our senator, John F. Budke. and the candi dates for Assembly this day nominated to vote again -X M. S. Quay for United States senator at all times; and to work and votf for the ejection of some Republican possessing the qualifications above set forth and who will give to the second State ill the Union the standing in the upper house of Congress to which this rank entitled her and for which her people have heretofore longed in vain.' 1 '1 he vote was then taken and Ache son won over McCracken by a vot'- of 185 to 50: while the votes of the Anti- Quavtuen for Legislature were !•!!»*, 117 and 1 is* to 22, 40} and 57 Anti- Quay men W"re also elected delegatt-s to the state and national conventions. One of tbe features oi tlie cm test at the primaries in Cecil township was the appearance of Jerome K. Quay, a brother of ex-Senator Quay, working at the prills.for the SJHX:<;<-B of his brother s ticket, lie is superintendent r, f tbe Morganza Refotni School, and all the employees of the school turner! oat, lint the precinct was carried for Aybesou and the anti Quay sluttfby a large ma >->rit>*. AeiieHou carried iVojth Ctiarleroi where but one dclegnte was chosen while McCra ken carried the first and second precincts of f'harh-roi Borough. In the first precinct four delegates were ch(,«en while sbrdeMgfttea were rhosrm iu the Second district. There were nearly Ul.tsm votes cast in the primaries Saturday, the r.nti Quay candidates r«.-eejviug lotimi to for the Quajt candidates. Somerset and Tioga Republicuas will hild their primaries nort Saturday, but several of the most important Republi can C'iunties. iiielndin;; Philadelphia 1 Bucks, Montgomery, Chester, Lebanon, [Bradford aud Dauphin, will not make legislative nominations until later in 1 the season, iu tnosl. cases not- unlil Augimtof September, but the result in the counties in which nominations have already Is-en mad< point unmistakably to another deadlocked Legislature if Quay shall continue to be ;i candidate ' for Senator, l>t \K i)\A> Brother Hoar is going to make the effort of bis life this week. He dxpectn to embark today upon a speech of forty nine thousand words. At an initial velocity of one hundred words a minute, he calculates to acconi plish this in something over eight h >UJ'» not allowing for interpoptions. As the venerable Senator ha lost something of his youthful vigor, how ever, it is (|tii , Ktionab 1 e whether nn oven spc«l can be maintained throughout tie Oration, and as t,h<> Senate does jiot us ually care to be talked to many hours at a stretch, it novum 'juite safe to coticUid< that Mr. Hoar'n sp«ecJi will exJcnil through the week. The nnlijeef of It is the woea ot thi Filipinos and the helnoutoicHM of McKld ley s foreign policy. Perhaps the Hen ate will h i him talk on this without in tcir-upting him, but the chances ar; against it If not. a week may not suflic> for the Kpeech. if Senator lioai consumes all this time on Is-half of his friend Agniitaido. where does he ex pe( t his fi-iend to come in'' i'hil'a Times.

Friday's session of the House was an unusually interesting one: and by a vote of 240 to 15. the House 'passed the resolution for a constitn -1 tional amendment providing for the I election of Senators by direct vote of ! the people. The majority resolution re I p.rted from committee left it optional \ with the states whether their senators should be elected directly or by the Legislature. The minority resolution made it. incumbent that each state elect by direct vote.

Then came the vote npon the reso lution as amended and the vote was s'lo to V'- tb'" minority consisting of 10 Re publicans aud one Democrat, The con stitutional amendment which, if the Senate concurs, will be submitted to Legislatures for adoption or rejection, is as follows: "The Senate shall be composed of two senators from each State, who shall 1 e elected by a direct vote of the people 1 thereof for a term of six years. A plu rality of the votes cast for candidates I for senator shall be sufficient to elect. The electors in each State shall have ! the qualifications requisite for electors of the most numerous branch of the ' State Legislatures. When a vacancy j happens by deatb, resignation or other wise in the representation of any State in the Senate, the same shall be filled for the unexpired term thereof in the same manner as is provided for the election of senators in paragraph 1: Provided that the .executive thereof may make temporary appointment until the next general or special election in accordance with the statutes or consti tution of such State.

Th« last meeting of the Executive Committee of the Centennial, held >n the evening of April inst.. was well attended and several matter* requiring attention w»re acted upon. An encouraging report as to the Finances was received and with a united effort it is believed sufficient funds will lie secured. The Committee <>n Invitations was re ported as progressing with its work. To the members of the general Com mittee on Relics, living in Butler, it was ordered that five be added, to-wit: W. B. DCKWS. Esq.. Horatio Yanderliu, C. M. Heineman. Theodore Pape and Harry Grieb. This for the arranging and superintending of the relics aft-r being brought upon the ground here. A partial report was made by the Music Committee and it >vas ordered to make fnll arrangements for music by May 1. and report same not later tli ;n that date. The Committee on Amusements was requested to again meet and determine the nature and extent of its programme and the probable expense, and report fnlly by May Ist. The Decoration Committee will have a meeting soon for better organization. The matter of arches over the streets was discussed, and, as the citizens all propose to decorate their own places of business and houses, it was thought that one large arch in front of the Court House would be sufficient. It is about concluded to build a large tent on the Diamond, : East end), in which to place the smaller relics. It is to have about ten tables or benches run ning through it for placing relics. The Rink may also be secured for -storing the larger relics. The Chairman of the Finance Com mittee requested the publishing of the names of the different collectors in the different towns and townships that lie has appointed. These and all the other Committees will make report by or be fore May 1. A Committee on Transportation was ordered. The following compose this Committee: W. C. Thompson, \\ R. Turner. L. Herniation, W. A. Forquer. A Pr<»gram of all the coming exercises will be prepared at as early a day as possible. • Centennial Collectors.

He was preparing a "paper book in a Superior Conrt case at the time: his friend. Attorney McFailand. was assist ing him. and during the evening he mentioned that something he had eaten for supper had turned on him. and he spat part out of it. and drank a pitcher of water during the evening. Towards 11 o'clock he mentioned a pain in his left hand and forearm, and stopped work for awhile to warm his arm at the gas tire in his back office, and then re sumed his work, but a moment later his head was thrown back, his body stiffen ed and he began sliding from his chair. Mr. McFarland caught him.and being unable to carry him to the couch, laid him on the Moor and put something tin der his head and then called for help, but death was almost instant -menus. After the first stroke he seemed to struggle for life, but he made no an swer to Mr. McFarland's inquiries.

The strongest speech on the Quay case the Senate has yet heard was de livered by Senator Burrows last Thurs day afternoon For three hours ho argued against wvut he calls the revo lutionary doctrine propounded by those who favor seating Colonel Quay. The Michigan Senator astonished many of hia colleagues by the profundity of his research He not Only cited all the precedents heretofore used in the case, but lie went further. He quoted tin- utterances of nearly all the Senators of recognized ability during the 100 years during which similar cases have been before tho Senate. But that does not represent the scope of his address. Mr. Burrows quoted from the discus sions hi in the constitutional convention which framed tie' fundamental law, and tin' writings of the menilxjrs of that body were searched for light upon the purpose of the fathers when they fram ed the provision under the authority of which (-Jeveinor Stone pretends to ap point Colonel Quay to till the vacancy caused by the expiration of his own term At times the S-nator, who has been the head and Trout of the opposition to the seating of Qu-iy, was ironical. Tn quoting Hamilton. Webster, Marshall and Edmunds be remarked that he un derstood they were constitutional lnw'- yenof some ability, though iu view of what lie had heard recently ho was not surt that his understanding was correct. Although the Michigan Senator in dulged in some spread eagle flights of rhetoric, most of the time he held him self very elvv- tofhe constitutional law aspects of the mutter. He marshaled all the really great l iwyers of the country against the contention of (Quay's friends and even quoted Senator Hoar again«t the position he now holds. He apologiz ed for quoting the uian who has made the chief argument for Quay, but he said Mr. Hoar's arguments in 1*7!) were so er.genl he could not resist the tempta tion None of the Quay men undertook to interrupt the Michigan Senator. It was evident that Mr. Marrows was too well prepared to be tripped up on any point. A - he proceeded Senators accorded him the closi st attention, notwithstanding the faet that he was traversing ground that had been gone over by every other man who has spoken on the subject. Senator Hale, the most blase mail in the Senate, was no absorbed that he was apparently oblivious to everything ex cept the earnest words and gestures of the Senator from Michigan, who, iu his peroration,implored the Senators to pre vent further smirching of the name of the Senate and further lowering of that body in popular estimation by following the precedents of a century. CnnosiNt; U. S. Senators by the pt,p nlai vote would improve the reputation of State Legislatures. Opening-ol (lie I'aris E\|io.

Though a poor, lone waif in the great busy mart. Neglected and hungry, he still had a heart That was filled with compassion for one poor brute, That plead for his friendship in elo quence mute; It was poor old Jack, who with right eous intent, Followed after his master where ever he went; He had stood as his ally in many a fight, Shared his meal by day and his lied by night. As he sat that day on the old mossy stone. Though hungry, ns proud as a king on his throne, He held in his hand a poor, dry crust of bread. And to his dumb vassal confidingly said: "This is the very last crumb in the sack But, if you want the morsel, then Speak for it, Jack!" If from the great public a favor you'd seek. Go after it bravely, be gentle and meek; But never hold back. Lest one more progressive than you should step in. And with more i>erseverence the battle should win; Stop not to reflect on his action so bold, Lost yon, while you're thinking, be left in the cold. In this great Republic one citizen— brother All things considered is good as another; Since in love and in war all conditions are fair. Just strive without ceasing, you're sure to get there; Though men seok for office, 'twould be a good plan, If we'd let the office just seek for the man. But since 'tis the fashion for men to climb higher. If you'd get into office yon'll have to as pire. Then trim well your sails, learn to turn and to tack; 11' you wish for an office, then, Speak for it Jack! When trouble assails you iu life's busy f'rong, I ..I" friendship stands ready to help you along. Upon the right track. Though storms of adveraity sweep o'er the way. And all the horizon looks gloomy and gray. Remember, though darkness your way may enshroud, There's a lining of silver to every dark cloud. There's a fact on which you can always depend, "N<> man falls so low but bus some where a friend." This great world with friendship is fill - eil to the brim. And who seeks it aright, it is rendered to him. Tbo' some may give sfcoues, when asked to give bread. And may for a fish, give a serpent in stead, Yet, t here are enough, if you're worthy indeed. To give without grudging as you need. Then cheer up my brother, step down from the rack. For, if you want friendship, then, Speak for it. Jack! Love lightens our labor in all we do. If we are but steadfast, contented and true. And in faith not slack. It was the decree from the kingdom above, That the man should be bound by the bond of love, To the woman that heaven in limes early hours, Placed close by bis side in the garden of (lowers. ISut you Can't get a wife, at least not in our land AH you'll pick up a pchhlo that lies on the wntu; VDU iniint first win her love, if her hand you would win. And have her stand by you through thick and through thin; Vou can't always fell by the glimpe* you've caught, Whether that tender maiden may love you fir not; But this I a its lire you, there is beyond do>bt (lr the leant hit of cavil a way to find out. Just tell the whole story and keep notli •ng back; If you wish for her love, why, then, Speak for it Jack! Kvnns ('itv.

The Philadelphia North American flung a bombshell into the machine camp last Friday by publishing sta tistics showing the time spent during the last six months by each official in Harrisburg in the discharge of his duty. The people pay these officials their salaries, and this is the service they get: Israel W. Durham, Insurance com missioner, salary $15,000; was present just three days during the last six months. He was absent 147 days. The North American correspondent says: "He has not been inside of his of fice more than a dozen times since the close of the last legislature, and only three times in the last six months. He spends so little time in Harrisburg that it is doubtful if he would recog nize his clerks if he were to meet them In the street. Indeed, he knows so lit tle about the office that it is doubtful if he can tell when it was created, or for what purpose." Banking Commissioner Powe.rs, sal ary, $0,000: present 37. absent 113 days.

STORY IS THE SAME AS FROM OTHER SOURCES. Lots of Money Spent but no Returns Have Been Received. The people in Pennsylvania willingly add their evidence to that which has al ready been given in favor of Morrow's Kid-ne-oids, the best remedy that has ever been sold in this state for backache, kidney and urinary disorders, sleepless ness and nervousness. Our druggists re port wonderful cures and state that Kid ne-oids are daily increasing in the opin ion of our jieople. Kid-ne-oids act di rectly npon the kidnejs and nerves and restore them to their natural condition. Good kidneis make gocd blood, eeod blood makes strudg ner\es, Kid-ne-oids make good kidneys and strong nerves. Mr. John lieightol, 12.V Du.-Boia street, I)u Bois, Pa., says:—l'or years I was troubled with kidney disorders, ami dur ing this time I tried different kinds of kid ney b'-'t aeyer found anything that gave me 'relief like Morrow's Kid ne-oids. Before taking Kid-ne-oids I suffered with a dull heavy pain in the small of my back wliicli would lie fre quented by a sharp shooting pain just ovei the kidney exteuding up the spine to the shoulders, also urinary disturbance: of an annoying nature Since taking Kid-ne-oids they have relieved-me ol these troubles and 1 am fet.ling better in every respect.
