SOME FUHTIIEH COMMENT.
Our next door friend nlso shows
signs of coining to " when it s;iya it
is reported that n lnre portion of
the county indebtedness 'several
thousand dollars" was incurred in
the year 1890. The Pkkks of July
30 1897 presented ,a carefully pre
pared statement, taking an average
of the county expenses for the past
two, three and four years so us to
. fairly show the sum necessary to be
expended by the county eaoh ye.ir
Compared with this was the
amount which could be raised on
the present assessed valuation by n
ton mill tax. This comparison
showed an annual deficit of over
2600, and that this must necessari
ly exist each year with the present
assesssment. This statement has
never been gainsaid so far ns we
know, and we do not think it can be
donied by any ono familiar with the
facts, or doubted by any person who
takes the trouble to investigate.
Our contention then was, and now
is, that the assessed valuation of the
county is insufficient to raise enough
money annually on the basis of a
ten mill tax to pay current and ne
cessary expenses. By this we were
not urging a higher rate of taxation,
the rate is ample now provided all
classes were assossod in proportion
to the farmer. Our contention was
and is, that the farmer pays too
great a share. That properties
which are valuable and large pro
ducers of revenue to there owners
are not proportionately assessed.
To instance, there are placos hero in
Milford assessed from $.100 to ifrKOO
which would bring at a cash sale
from 13000 to tlOOO. Is there a
farm in all this County to-day as
sessed at fS00 which would bring at
a cash sale $2,000?
The farmer should not bo further
burdened, nor is it necessary, in or.
der to run tho County on a safe and
sound financial track. Were the
assessments of the whole County
properly adjusted, a surprising rev
elation would bo made to the horny
handed sons of toil, and thej would
indeed gaze in amazement at the
cataracts which had eclipsed their
vision in this matter. The triennial
has boon made, auu it is too late
now to make any change this time,
but the Prkss proposes to keep at it
and see if the people cannot lie
brought to a realizing sense of the
real oondition of affairs, and induced
to apply tho proper remedy at the
proper time.
"ECONOMY."
Our esteemed contemporary, tho
Dispateh, is apimrently trying to Bit
up and begin to not ice things. This
is a hopeful sign and we trnst its
convalescence will continue. It has
hardly before given any indication
that it was aware of our existence,
though we have beeu alive for over
two years, but, perhaps it thought
we were too puny to merit any no.
tioe. We feel grateful for this reo
oguition.and shall try in the future
to deserve an oocasion.il passing
token. Under tho caption "Econ
omy"it ooraineuts editorially on a
brief item in the Pkkss of the pre
vious week entitled"County Indebt
edness." That item, so far as the
statement of the amount owing bv
theoounty is concerned, was author
ized by the commissioners, the bal
anoe of the statement as to their
iuteutious for the ooming year was
inferred from conversation with two
of them, and we judged embodied
their ideas as to the future conduct
of the financial affairs of the county.
It certainly should meet the appro
bation not only of officials but of
tax payors. The Dispatch in an
other article referring to tho annual
statement of receipts and expen
ditures of the county says, "The
people have not had any annual
etatomeut signed by the Commission- '
ers nnd attested by their clerk for
two years." It says some weeks
ago it published the rejiort of the
Auditors in a condensed form as
m it ter of news and without reward
or hope thereof. It does not men.
tion the fact that the PRF.ssdid the
same thing in 1S96 while the Dis
patch got full rates for so doing,
and the Press this year only got the
work by being the lowest bidder,
but sauce for the goose does not by
its mode of reasoning seem to be
sauoe for the gander. In connection
with tho publication of the state
ment we may say the commission
ers authorized a statement, It was
in the hanrt writing of their clerk,
which we "published this year. It
states in the caption that it is pub
lished by their direction. The one
of last year was published as the
auditors made it and we think
they were heartily ashamed of it
and would have preferred to have
had it revised and corrected. We
are not the adviser of the commis
sioners and as-mme that if those
officials deem it necessary or ad
visible they can answer fully and
satisfactorily for their acts, In the
matter of the publications. But we
have a remark to make on the ex
egesis of the Dispatch on the ques
tion of economy, and the tax payers
need only reflect for a moment to
sej that its remarks on that subject
ire all intended for the benefit of
some other persons. That the act
is praiseworthy and beautiful when
exercised by others, but that tho
Dispateh must not ba expectel to
join in any such self saorifiea. Last
year the commissioners as may be
soon from their books offered the
printing of tho c lanty statement
to the Dispatch for $"5, the same
pried which the Pmss bid for the
work. Tho Dispatch had refused
to bid at all presumably expecting
the work at its full rate. Was It
seeking economy for tho tax payers
then? This year the commissioner
leain offered the work nt bids. Tii
Press being tho lowest, reeoived it.
s tho Dispatch real y anxi is for
the tax payers welfare? Tuis ye.ii
Hie Press proposed in order tliat the
tax payers of both parties might see
the statement in their papers to re
duce its rates and joiu with the
Dispatch in the publication. . Our
neighbor declined this proposition,
and put in a bid, which was evi
dently too high for it did not got the
job. We cry amen to the prop
osition that the times are hard
and dollars scarce, and submit one
action in respect to economizing for
the tax payers in contrast with that
of our esteemed noighbor, who now
t ikes up the burden and says, "Every
penny counts. "It does so long as not
counted out of its pocket evidently.
EIGHTH DISTRICT POLITICS
It is intimated that L. H. Barber
of Carbon is an aspirant for the con
gressional re-nomination in this dis
trict. Is not the overwhelming dis
tinction of having beeu the first
domocrat to swamp a majority of
7 or 8000 sufficient honor on which
ho can retire, and 1 3t some other
chap, the Hon. J. J. for instance
who came mighty near smearing
himself with the same brand of
glory two years previously, tackle
the job 1 The Phila. Record says for
some unknown reason h j was deniod
the usual re-nomination two years
ago. If this is true, better let him
have it this fall, so tho reason may
become apparent. The people should
not be kept in darkness, and his can
didacy might turn on a roul flood of
light. We fancy the statesman from
Easton, Mr. Mutchler, would howl
with delight over such a situation,
and be ready to speak a little piece
siecially prepared for the occasion.
Dr. Shull of Stroudsburg and his
oomjiatriot, Mr. Staples, who made
a Barber speech in our Court House
and came mighty near forgetting
to mention Barber, would tumble
over each othor in an ectasy of joy,
and there would bo no danger of any
lapse of memory in either of them.
Such a situation would infuse real
heartfelt interest in the campaign
among democrats generally and by
all means gantleman lot us have it
that way.
A Royal Poet.
The emperor of Jaiwn seems to be
a very proliflo poet, for the Japan
Mail of Yokahama says : "We are
told that during the last ten years
tho poet laureate in Japan has seen
more than 25,000 couplets comuosed
by our sovereign. His majesty has
penned 2,250 couplets within the
last few months."
From all over the country, come
words of praise for Chamdorlain's
Cough Remedy. Here is a. samnlH
letter from Mrs. C. Shep, of Little
Hock, Ark. : ' I was suffering from
a very severe cold when I read of
the cures that had been erW.tml
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I
concluded to give it a trial and ac
cordingly procured a bottle. It gave
me prompt relief, and I have the
oesi. reason ior rooommon ding it
very highly which I do withpltxis

NAMES WE MISSED
It was intended that Maryland
should be named "Crescentia," but
Charles I. change.1 it to "Terra Ma
rian," in honor of his wife, anil we
made it "Mary's Land" hence Mary
land. (Home proutieiation," .Merry -Ion.")
William Penii wanted to call
his state "Now Wales," but after
ward decided upi.i Sylvania, to
which the King prefixed the word
Penn. In 1781 mi ordinance was
drawn lip as follows: "Tho terri
tory northward of forty-fifth degree
that is to say, of tho completion of
tho forty-fifth degree from the equa
tor and extending to the lake of the
wuls.sh ill bicilloP'Sylv iuia."Seo
whnt wo missed the territory under
tin forty-fifth and forty-fourth de
?re s which lies westward of Like
Miehi'an was to be called Mieh
igiinia, while that to the eastward
within the peninsula formed by the
lakes and waters of Michigan, Huron
St Clair and Erie, to In cillel Clier
sonesns. Heaven forbade!
Of the territory lying under the
forty-third and fo ty-.soooud degrees
that to the westward, called As
wtiisinia ; that to east ward, in which
are the sources of the Muskingum
the two Miami of the Ohio, the
Wabash, Illin lis, tho Mia mis, of the
lake, and the M strop itamia.. The
country through which tho Illinois
river runs was to bo called Illinois

the Ohio to Lake Erie, Washington.

The Advantages of Wide
Tires.
The Missouri experiment station
us hem miking soma experiments
vith wide tires and noting in detail
leir effects on all s rts of ro i Is.
Toe experiments extended ovjr a
year and a half.
These tests have been nude on
niacadom, gravel and dirt roads in
ill conditions, and also on the mead
ows and plowed fields of the experi
mental farm. Contrary to public
expectation, in nearly all cases
Iraft was materially lighter, when
tires six inches wide wore used,
than with tires of standard width.
The load hauled was In all cases the
same, and the draft was most care
fully determined by means of a
self recording dynamometer. The
bonofioinl effect of the wide tire on
dirt roads is strikingly shown in
some recent tests at the station. A
day road, badly out into ruts by the
narrow tiros, was selected for the
tost, as presenting conditions least
favorable to the broil tire. A
number of tests of the draft of the
narrow tire were made in those opor.
ruts, and immediately followed by
the broad tires running in the same
ruts. The first run of t.lin hmnA
tires over tho narrow ruts win ne-
companiod by an increased draft ;
the second by a draft materially less
than the original narrow tiro, third
by a still greater deoline, and in the
fourth trip tho rut was nractionllv
obliterated and filled. In another
trial, when a clay road was so bad
ly cut into ruts as to be almost im
passable for light vehicles and pleas
ure carriages, after running the six
inch tires over this road twelve
times the ruts were completely
filled and a first-class bicycle nath
made. Columbia Horald.
A Further Inducement
We have beon and are yet offerine
the New York Tribune and Press
for $1.65. Many have availed them-
selves of the opiortutiity to obtain
so much good reading for so small a
sum, and now as a further induce-
ment and to afford farmers the
chanoe to obtain that most excellent
work, Fifty years improvement i n
farming, we have mode arrange
ment jy Wiiioh wjoin S3ii 1 the three
publications for the phenomenally
small sum of $1.75. This offer to
hold good only until May 1st, 1838.
Every progressive farmer ought to
have, and read the .work on improve
ments. It is a whole library in it
self.
In order that those who are al
ready subscriber to the Press may
take advantage of the offer. Wo
will send to all renewing or paying
up to date the "Tribune and improve
