Poor overseer Bryant Is authority for the statement that a borough poor tax levy will havo to lie made this year as the calls upon tho public lHiunly hnvo 1m!cii so great that tho funds on band have becoino exhausted. Ever sinra Brock way villa wns incorporated Into a Imrough very little poor tax has boon necessary. Tho Inst levy was iiimlo when tho borough waif was loft for tho public to caro for. This was about four years Bgo, and the surplus accrued by that lovy has been sufficient to moot all calls until tho present. More calls have boon made during tho past winter than ever beforo, but the most of thorn have been transient and duo to unexpected mis fortune and sickness rather than long contlnuod poverty.

Some of the good people of West Reynoldsvillo took exceptions to tho artlelo published In TltR RTAn last week concerning tho trouble between a couple of borough offi cials and a picture agent, and went so far as to accuse the editor falsely, claiming that tho pnor published thn article In question, dictated by the agent, with tho understanding that the agent was to buy ono dollar's worth of papers; also that tho paper should stand by tho Ixirough Instead of a stranger that Is here to-day and away to-morrow, and that thn ease cited at Tltusvlllo was a farmer who sold produce, and not a picture agent. Wo do not know who started tho accusation against Tun STAR, nor how extensively It has lieen eiroiilnted, but do know that wo were Informed ns above stated, and bcllevo It nothing more than proper that wo plncn Tiik Star in the pmior light. In the first place TllK Star has noth ing against West Reynoldsvillo bor ough, or any of Its officials, or any Indi vidual citizen. Any man who thinks this paper can be bought for a dollar, or any other sum, all ho has to do is to try and see. Tho attempt has been made four or llvo times In the past threo years. Not ono line of the article published last week was dictated by tho picture agent, nor was it published ut his request. Tho facts in tho article concerning tho papers being sent to Brookvlllo wero received from tho agent's attorney, and the Tltusvlllo cose cited was gleaned from tho decision of tho United States Supreme Court In the ease. As for this paper standing by tho two boroughs, no man can bring any charge against TllK STAR for going back on them. We are Interested In both boroughs. The paper always has, and always will, so long as It is under tho present management, claim the right to express an opinion even on tho borough ordinances, and does not pro pose to stand by anything If It Is un constitutional. The ordinances In this borough and West Reynoldsvillo, "regu lating hawkers and peddlers," will hardly stand tho test. This borough has declared the ordinance unconstitu tional and will strike it oh tho statuto Ixiok and will framo a now ordinance to tako its place. An ordinance can bo framed that will protect tho business mon of tho town to a certain extont. Thoro Is no ono more anxious to havo tho business mon protected from the installment plan ngcnts,&c.,thnn tho edi tor of this paper. Wobellovoaman who lives In a town and spends his money in it is deserving of tho patronago of tho pcnplo, and should be protected in some manner. We want a law that will not got the borough into trouble if it Is on forced. Book Reception. Wo aro very anxious to have the pat rons and frlonds visit us on Friday, March 15, in ordor that thoy may ex amine tho work that is being dono in tho school. Thoso having children attending in the Reynolds building aro requested to go thore first whero they will bo receiv ed by Miss Fuller and tho work will bo arranged for examination. After they have seen tho work there, we would liko vory much to have thom como to tho building up town. Those bringing books to tho Reynolds building and not wishing to go to the upper building, if they haye any books for the school library, can present them to Miss Ful ler. Wo profor having the books brought to tho upper building, as wo desire to numbor tho books at four o'clock. Thoso desiring good books for tho library will find thom at Reynolds' drug store and also at Stoko's drug store, as each of thoso parties has bought botwoen throe hundred and five hundred books for this occasion.
