—Mr. John. Greenawalt, of Clearspring township, Lagrange county, has this year been favored with a crop of early potatoes, under very peculiar: circumstances.

On the 18th of May he proceeded to take up these potatoes, but when he got down | between the ground and chaff, he dis covered a bountiful erop of new pota-. toes, the largest of which measured seven and one-half inches in diameter. The flavor of these -new potatoes was tliat of the early potato. The old (buried) ones were, of course, badly rotted, Mr. Greenawalt finding but five .sound potatoeg in a heap; of 20 bushels.

HOSTETTER’S TOWN BOARD - SHOWS ITS HAND |

By Imposing Needless Burdens in ! One Instance, :

AND REFUSING TO LEVY A TUITION TAX IN ANOTHER,

The Public Schools to be Crippled,

TO GRATIFY A MEAN AND REVENGESl FUL SPIRIT. '

’ The majority of the Board ot Trus‘tees, elected by machinations of which no one has reason to feel proud, is beginning to'show its hand. It started out by wantonly and illegally raising the assessthents of certain citizens obnoxijous to the “ powers that be;” by imposing needlessly burdensome taxation, and has since’demonstrated its utter disregard of the public interest by mulishly and maliciously refusing to levy a tuition tax for thé maintenance of our public schools. | That there ‘may be no misunderstanding with regard to the men of whom we are now speaking, we will ’statp that by the term majority of the Board we mean Charles G. Vail, Alex. McConnell, and Wilson Knappenberger." The minority, Messrs. Wm. Wandel'and J. W..Wyland, have acted the part of conscientious and fair-minded agents of the peoplé—scorning to use their official positions for base or selfish purposes. : '

- The mean, contemptible attempt at raising the assessments of a half dozen gentlemen,personally obnoxious to*“the majority,” we will pass over with silent dontempt. The motive which prompted that action is so utterly beneath the dignity of sworn officials that we do not care about wasting words upon the subject, especially iir view of the fact that the wronged parties are amply protected by law. : When -the tax levy for 1876 was made, “the majority ” did not go to work, as becomes men’ placed into office to manage the financial affairs of the corporation, to ascertain how niuch ‘money would probably be required to meet the demands-upon the treasury.. The governing -idea seems to have been: “How burdensome can we render taxation so far as relates to the erection of the new School House ?” That this is the fact will be made apparent below. ~ . . . ot ~ The taxable property returned by the Asgessor amounts to $621,000. A liberal ‘estimate of the expenditures for the current year would be about as follows: - s Ordinary Expenditures for town purposes.. $1,200 Interest on §12.000 School Bonds at 9 per~ 1 cent,, three semi-annual iustallmeqts. - 1,620 Total .0 0. enesdeeiieaiiiaiat 050 2 35800 * Now, it should be remembered {hat, after paying every outstanding crder against the town, there would still remain several hundred dollars in the treasury. But ignoring this item’ entirely, we find that there is due the town from taxes delinquent over $9OO, of which at least $5OO or $6OO is collectable. Add to this the $BOO liguor licenses from (as we'can now cal‘culate) eight saloons, all payable this year (unless reduced), and about $5OO due the town for sidewalks, «c., and we have $l,BOO toward defraying the current expenses for the fiscal year. But - Hostetter’s wise council goes to work and levies a tax of 50 cents on the $lOO, just double the rate heretofore imposed by the “Tammany Ring.” Now look at these figures: "

Taxable property, $621,000; rate 50 cents per $lOO, cio.oiiiiisar ittt inis i 83,105.00 Liquor; Heenses. ... ..o iomiitilnaiiiil 7 800,00 Due the town for sidewalks, &c.......... 500.00 Delinquent taxes, c011ectab1e............. 500 00 »T0tt:,]]g].............{..........‘......... --..54.905.00 Required for town purposes and interest 2 820.00

Exce55...‘....................'.......~....éz;dé—ij._()—0 Taxpayers of Ligonier: How do you like this action of your new Board? Did you bargain for such financiering when you made- that change om the first Monday 1n May? Two thousand dollars’ to lay in the Treasury; two thousand dollars to be needlessly tnken from the people, all for the purpose of rendering the new School House odious in the minds of the people. (The surplus cannot be applied to the redemption of the School Bonds, for the reason that these are not redeemable before three years from the date of their issue.) o o We now come to the most disgraceful part of *the majority’s” doings.— Messrs. Scott and Gerber, School "Trus--tées,v appeared before the Board and made the usual request for the levying of the necessary school taxes.— They were received in a very uncouth ‘manner by the grand mogul of the Board (Vail), who demanded: a state‘ment in writing, and then, after the }.man(ner of some haughty autocraf, pompously informed the School Trustees that “this Board does not propose to levy a tuition tax,” for the reason that such tax was. unconstitutionaf!. Mr. Scott inquired who had pronounced this law unconstitutional, to which Vail gave rather an evasive answer, but the statement 'was promptly confirmed by that distinguished constitu‘tional lawyer, “Skip” Knappenberger, Mr. Scott informed these able expoun: ders of constitutional law that while it might barely be possible that the law under consideration is unconstitutional, it -had not yet been so pronounced by the courts. S ~ Messrs. Wandel and Wyland voted for the-tuition tax (or special school revenue), and Vail and “Skip” against This gave the casting vote to Alex. McConnell, who, after being duly instructed by the “ grand mogul ” as to the responsibility of his vote, decided against the levying of tax. - It was ‘thus decreed by Vail, “Skip” and MeConnell that the public schools of Ligonier shall be crippled to such an extent as to render them practically of no avail. The funds at the com‘mand of the School Board will “run” the schools perhaps five or six months; but everybody knows that no competent superintendent or first-class teacher can be hired for that length ol time.. o

We do not care to dwell further upon this subject. The action of the Board is freely condemned by many of those who helped to elect its members, and the holding of an indignation meeting is urged in various quarters, =~ e o

. On Monday last, Capt. E. H. Fisher received a first-class appointment from Washington in the shape of a clerkship in one of the Departments, and with it a letter informing him that Senator Morton had not forgotten him. It will be remembered that about three or four years ago many of the friends of Capt. Fisher thought he merited an appointment from the Government, a majority of whom thought the Pension Office at Fort Wayne would be the ‘p'rpper place. The Capt. was induced to get up a recommendation, which was signed by a large majority of the Indiana Legislature, the most prominent men of the Grand Lodge of I. 0. O. F. of Indiana, several of the State officers, the Judges of this Judicial District, and many other influential friends of this Cougressional District. This recommendation was placed in the hands of Senator Morton, who pronounced it the best recommendation he had ever received from any source and promised the Capt. that the desires of himself and friends should certainly be gratified; that such a document could not and would not be overlooked; that a satisfactory appointment would not fail to be forthcoming, &ec., &e¢. From that time to the present, those valuable documents have reinained dndisturbed in the possession of the Senator. But, it is said to be better late than never. Just two weeks before the Cincinnati Convention, before which the Senator is a prominent candidate for President, the Captain receives this. valuable appointment, which is supposed to be worth some $l2OO or 1300 per year. But it is indeed consoling to know that the Senator has not forgotten the matter. The Captain is very much elated over the appointment and will ever holdSenatorMorton in gratetul remembrance, and will reciprocate sho’d an occasion offer.. 'We are informed that, owing to circumstances beyond his control, it will be impossible for Capt. Fisher to report for duty immediately (as his appointment requires), " and we greatly fear that, .should the matter be delayed until after the Cincinnati Convention, the appointment may be recalled. It would, perhaps, be doing injustice to Hon. H. B. Sayler and Godlove S. Orth, should we fail to mention that their assistance and influence were given in securing this appointment, as it was promised at the time of the origination of the. project. It will be a difficult matter to determine which.is the more honored by promotion, Capt. Fisher or. Fielding Pricket, both having been most indefatigable workers and ardent supporters of the republican party; now one is elevated to a clerkship at' Washington, and the other “to that of a candidate for Presidential Elector (which 1s said to be very remunerative). Tlis may all be very satisfactory to the parties granting and re-: ceiving those favors, but to us it looks decidedly “thin.” Lrhd Ed. Engle’s Albion Red Line makeés Su'nday‘weekl‘y vifiits to our city,, for the accommodation of citizens at the “hub.” Among the passengers aboard last Sunday were- Judge Tousley, Mr. Starr, of the New Era, and many other prominent citizens of the county seat. We hope the Red line will continue during the season. ' Deacon Highbargin caught a pike a few days ago which weighed 12 lbs., 110 z. = The Deacon always picks out the largest. Pl;il. Bouyer caught one the same day about the same size, but it got away. - Innumerable numbers of small fish are being caught, but the ‘trouble seems to be that the drouth is iaffecting the crop of angle worms, A few days ago it was thought that the-mushroom and frog crop would be bountiful, but the dry, cool weather has interfered very materially.
