Not counting any of the mul-
titudinous extras which must
necessarily be entailed, the
above figures show a total out-
lay “$58,000

And these figures are under, rather than
over the mark. ‘

Our annual town tax of ten mills realiz-
es less than $60,000 for the town; So to
begin with we find our new building pro-
ject, if paid for, must necessitate an in-
crease of ten mills, making a town tax of
twenty mills on the dollar.

Will the value received justify the out-
lay ?

So mucli for the town. Now for the
borough. Our present borough tax is ten
mills. In a very short time a system of
sewers must be laid. This will involve
an expense of certainly not'less than $100,-
000 and probably fully $200,000. ‘ But
take the lower figure. The amountraiscd
by a ton mill tax is about $24,000. An
outlay for EOWers must create enough ad-
ditional burden to our present tax with-
out the residents of the borough being al-
so staggered with a double town tax.

A soldiers‘ monument is a good thing.

 

We will cheerfully vote for and contrib-‘

ute to its erection. And the idea which
seems the best and least burdensome—and
which is warmly approved by Governor
Harrison—is that a monument should be
erected on the Armory::grounds. Also
that memorial tablets should be placed in
the Amery ball. This is a peculiarly ap-
propriate position. Is it not, all things
considered, the best ? -

Let the tax payers speak their minds.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.
WAsmNG'rON, May 24, 1886.
DEAR Gaza'r'raz—The country is to be
most heartily congratulated that in spite
of all the power the great Pennsylvania
railroad system was able to bring to bear
in Opposition the senate, last week, passed
the bill granting the Baltimore &. Ohio
railroad the right to erect a bridge over
that narrow arm of New York bay, which
separates New Jersey from Staten Island.
This enables the latter corporation to com-
plete a competing railroad between the
national capital and the commercial Ine-
tropolis of the country. This means
quicker, better and more frequent trains
between New York and Washington, and
at a uniform price of $5 fare. The Penn-
sylvania road, anticipating the opening of
this new route, is just how selling its
tickets at $5, and one of their selling
agents informs us the experiment has re-
sulted in a large increase of cash receipts.
But as is too frequently the case with
these monster corporations they have so
hampered and restricted these tickets as
to deprive themselves of any sense of
grateful appreciation on the part of the
public. 'To get the $5 rate onehnust pur-
chases round trip ticket and pay 810.
Then if the return coupon be got used, by
vmailing it to the company’s treasurer at
Philadelphia $5 will be returned the pur-
chaser, and a very large business is thus
done to the coat of the company in clerk
service, and in time and vexatiops trouble
to the holder, though he thereby saves
$2.50 when going but one way within the
time limited, which is twenty days. Why
the Pennsylvania company cannot see its
manifest interest in thus anticipating the
amply sufficient rate of $5 for the 240
miles, which its rival is said to have
settled upon, without any of these amaz-
ing conditions and thus win the public’s
kindly regard is what the average com-
mon sense business man cannot conjecture.
The Baltimore & Ohio road has no cause
to complain that the Pennsylvania com-
pany has so desperately fought its getting
an entrance into New York, for it, for
years, as persistently and successfully kept
the latter road from gaining an entrance
to this city.- The remark of Gen. Butler
on bringing his troops via Annapolis to
the beleagured capitol, over the Baltimore
do Ohio’s single track, will be recalled by
many. Said the doughty general: “I
shall not worry for the safety of Washing-
ton any more, for with but one railroad,
and that only a single track, no foe could
ever get a conquering army into Washing-
ton, or if in could ever get out.” But
things have changed and now the old
Baltimore &. Ohio and the new Pennsyl-
vania Central have first-class double-
tracked 'roads entering this city. The
Star very truly: saysffiin regard to these
railroad conflicts: ”As the first effort
failed, as it deserved to fall, so did the
latter. The whole country was largely
the gainer by the first victory, as it will be
by the second, and even the' competing
companies themselves will in the end lose
nothing in consequence. What benefits
the people at large cannot seriously hurt
those interests that depend for their suc-
cess on the common prosperity; and ex-
perience has always ,shown that healthy
competition is a' good thing for corpora-
tions and individuals’subjccted to its in-
fluences as,well as for the: community at
large.”
DEATH OF MRS. pENDmox.
Washington experienced a terrible shock
on receipt of the news of the horrible death
of the wife of ex-Senator and Minister
George H. Pendleton in New York last
week. The sympathy awakened was wide, .
sincere and profound, as here this estim-
able lady was probably as universally
known and beloved as at her home: in
Ohio, so long had she been;a resident and
society favorite in Washington. It is
doubtful if she was as intimately known
in Cincinnati to as many'promineutpeople
as here, and byuniversal acclamation she
was a person most beloved where best
known. Our Connecticut W. A. Croffut;
who has just assumed the editorial charge
of the Washington Post, pays this fitting
tribute to the estimable lady:

“She was a lady of sweet disposition
sunny and buoyant nature, graceful and
gracious manner, great refinement of
character, rare attainments, and was ev-
erywhere admired. In all lofty and
elevating traits she and her distin hed
husband were admirabl mate . Her
father was Francis Scott ey, who wrote
the “Star Spangled Banner” in Baltimore;
her brother, Philip Barton Kc ; her uncle,
Roger B. Taney ; her cousin, n. Winfield
Scott; while the circle of. her relations in-
cluded Admiral Buchanan, John Mor ,
the Howards, Camila, Taylors and o era
as well known. The sympathy of the
nation which her illustrious husband has
served so many years so faithful] , will go
out to him in his sorrow and lone ess be-
ynnd the sea. It is a terrible tragedy,.of
which there seems to be no alleviation.”

POLITICAL POINTS.

An Indianapolis correspondent of the
New York Times says the political battle
in Connecticut will be a sharp one, but
Senator Hawley hopes to be returned. ‘

In the Court of Claims an Opinion has
been delivered on the' liabilitybf the Gov-
ernment for the French spoliation claims,
holding that the claimants were entitled to
damages. The claims arose from seizures
by French privateers of American mer.
chant vessels between 1703 and 1801. They
were pressed upon France, while, that
country urged counter claims. By the
treaty of 1801, the two sets of claims were
set of! one against the other and dropped.
Then the claimants sought redress from
the Government, and Congress ' has made
several reports in their favor. ,

The National Association of grape
growers and Wine makers, held their
annual meeting herc‘last- week. The ex-
hibits were a marvelous surprise to those
who have not kept posted as to the wide
extent and magnitude of . the grape grow-
ing interests of the United States. Claret
winesjwere shown from North Carolina
and Virginia pronounced by recognized
judges as superior in fruit flavour and
richness to any known foreign brands.
Catawbas, sweet and sour, and excellent
brands of Champagnes and Clarets were
shown from several points in the interior
of New York and samples of Bracton
wines, made by G. E. vRyckman of that
town, were pronounced especially fine.
His old» Port wine was sampled with a
genuinegimportation from Portugal of the
vintage of of 1815 and pronouced superior
to the imported Port, while his Cham-
pagnes were deemed by many as superior
to the best California exhibits. 'The Cali-
.fornia exhibit comprised, Olives and rais-
ins of supbrb qualities as well as wines of
every description. The astonishing state-
ment was made that the grape growing
industry of this Country now aggregates
one hundred and u'zly milliomia year and
the association urge on Congress the pas-
sage of a law preventing 'adulterations in
liquors, as in the;intcrests of temperance
and the health and happiness of the peo-
ple. Mr. Ryckman has a new hybrid
grape he calls the “Niagara,"_ which he is
confident will prove the best wine and
most popular table grape in the world.
He set out over ten thousand vines of
this variety last fall, at his ‘Bracton vine-
yards.

ACCIDENT To' Mus. nu. alums.

Rev. Dr. and Mrs. Childs attended the
anniversary exercisesjof the Indian school
at Hampton last week and while awaiting
'the Washington boat on the pier at Fort
Monroe, ,the Steamer struck the dock with
such force that the planking parted at the
exact point where Mrs. Childs stood and
she fell through the apperture, but catch-
ing the side of the planking saved herself
from going into the sea beneath. The
Doctor and her daughter May, who were
beside her instantly lifted her from her
perilous situation and not a second too
soon, as the rebound of the boat from the
dock caused the appeture to immediately
close up and had she still remained in the
orifice, she must inevitably have been
crushed to death. She was conveyed
