"Facts”, of the Republican, has permitted himself to be imposed on by the Trustee who "showed the circular he received." □There will be sufficient time to anive at a correct conclusion with reference to the operations of the new tax law before the campaign of *92 is on, and we predict brother Marshall will find his crusade against it about bs profitable |as has been his opposition to the school book election laws. "The last legislature increased the rate of state taxation to the extent of an additional 6 cents on the SIOO valuation.— Rensselaer Republican. The "additional 6 cents on the $100val« nation” is levied for revenue to meet the expenditure of the charitable institutions of the State. Our neighbor seems indisposed to pay out 60 cents on each SI,OOO that he may be worth, to the support of the unfortunate inmates of our asylums. We think there are but few of our people who will join our neighbor in this crusade. Our neighbor complains of the action of the State Tax Commissioners iu raising the real estate assessment in Jasper county 10 per cent. If the assessment was disproportionately lo w compared with other counties ths commissioners did the proper thing. They at the same time increased the assessments of telegraph, telephone and railroad companies a hundred per cent. If the assessment in the aggregate be double that of last year, then the levy to rais« the ’-me amount of money will be only one haif. As we have said on former occasions look well to the township and county officials chaiged with making the levy, and if your taxes are higher hold them responsible. The new tax law is all right.

Mrs. Isaac Kepner, of Rensselaer, is visiting relatives and friends in Brookston. H. B. W. Smith and wife returned to Chicago, last Glen Bates, has aj situation in Ja cm * ning factory, at Paxton, 111. John Potts of Marlborough, now occupies Leroy Sayres’ property, in the west part of town. Simon Leopold, is a r present selling dry goods in the building just vacated by Joe Hardman, and as soon as Laßue’s move into their new 1 eadquarters he will move his goods into the Arcade building. A or sowed corn co Do leu green, if needed, will help to bridge over a season of scarcity. Few farms can afford to go without this protection against scarcity in summer food for aatmala. A Vanderbilt a# a Bookworm. George Vanderbilt is a slim-buih pallid-faced man of retiring manner, with bluish-grey eyes and a brown mustache. He is only nine and twenty and the master of $10,000,000, yet ns eschews society and leads the life of a conscientious professional bookworm, pouring over moldy and obscure yet yet priceless editions of the classics in the luxuriant library of his Fifth avenue mansion. He has a pretty turn for art, which, however, does not prevent his attending the Gerinaa opera on occasions, and he is an expert canoer. He is not particularly robust, but, being a bachelor, he is the cynosure of all the match-making mammas about town, to whom he gives wide berth, and is building a home in North Corolina which promises to be a revelation. He is said to be writing a historical novel.
