luotatit to ask that our people, who
complain ofr high tax:ttion, ani justly,

plorable in the extreme, and h:s been

cannot be done now. We L.cp,-, how

have alread3 required a registration

now is,) shall direct us in what man

let it be known to the olaimanto, and
pay out as directed by him.
In conclusion we call upon all tax.
payers to bear with us patiently, or
be aver ready to aid us in our honest
efforts to a-:rve them, and believe that
whatever step we take will be prompt
ed by an earnest desire to promote
their best interests and redeem the
county from that position of insolven
ey and bankruptcy in which she now
is and ploce her in a condition of
prosperi:y. This will necessarily be
a work of time. and we can hur ly
hope to accomplish it in the short
term of our office, starting as we do
under the embarrassments and diffi.
nilties we have already expressed.

Representatives Tuesday will raise
$34,000,000, ii round numbers as
follows : Froim whi.key, $12,000,000;
from sugar, $8,000,000 ; renewal of
horizontal tax, 8,000,0WO ; tobacco,
$4,000,000 ; cigars, $2,000,000.
The original bill rnised $18,000 000
on whisky, or $6,000,000 more thau

hook your little finger into her's.
Wait until conver-ation begin;e to

"Susie, I want. to aek you some.
thing?"
She will fidget around a little,
reply "ycs" and after a pause you can
add :
"Susie, my notion must have shown

muet be aware that-that ?"
Pause here awhile, but keep your
finger firmly looked. She may cough
and try to turn the subject off by ask.
ing you how you liked the circus, but
she only does it to encourage you.
After about ten minutes you can
continue :
"I was thinking, as I came up the
path to-night, that before I wout
away I would ask you-that is, I
would broach the sul.ject nearest my
-I mean I would know my"
Stop again and give her hand a
gentle ,queeze. She may give a yank
to get it away or she may not. InI
either ease it argues- well for you.
Wait about five minutes and then go
on :
"The past year has been a very i
h.appy one to me, but I hope that
future years will still be happier.
However, that depends entirely on
you. I am here to-night ' know
that is to ask you-I moan I vin here
to-nig-t to hear from your own lips
the one sweet"
Wait again. It isn't best to be
too rash about such things. Give
her plenty of time to recover her
omnposure, and then put your hand
in your heart and continue :
"Yes I thought as I was coming
through the gate to-night, how happy
I had been ; and I raid to myself
that if I only knew you would consent
to be iny-that is, I said if I only i
knew-if I was only certain that my
heart had not deceived me, and you
were ready to share"- Hold on
there'a no hurry about it. Give the
wind a chance to sob and moan
iround the gable. This will make
her lonesome and call up all the love
in her heart. When she begins to
ough, and grow restless, you can
6o oil :
"Belore I met you this world was
a desert to Inc. I didn't take any
pleasure in going blackborrying, and
Rtealing rare.ripe peaches, and it
didn't matter whether the sun shone
or not. But what a change in one
short year ! II is for you to say
whether my future shall be a prairie
of happiness, or a summer fallow of
Canadian thistles. Speak dearest
Susie, and say-any say-that"
Give her five minutes more by the
lock and then add :
T at you will be' that is, that you
will-T mean that you will-be

up at the clock and over the stove,
an then as she slides her handm' over
your vest pocket she will wl.ir,-r :
"You are just right-I wil."'
And then if you donm' know
what comes next, you are a sucker.

3. Toward the end of the evening
it is always better to owe up your
aunto "for a minute" than to put up,
as the winner of the pot frequently
forgets to charge up the debts, and
none of the other players will remind
him, as they may wish to do the same
thing.
4. When the credit system begin4
to creep in, its it gencrally does
about the middle of the game, you
should always owe up if posible,
1lnd bet chiefly a.;iist those who
ilways put up. This is one of the
inert important rules. To win in
1asi and lose on e-edit is the great
iecrot of suecessful poker playing.
5. Ir. dealing,always observe the

before te cut. Then, by noticing
low thick a cut is made, you can
'ell wh-ther (hat card goes out. This

any that think that no republican

tholn in a bunch at once.
Treasurer Cardozo has, we think,
muade an execllent State Treasurer,
and iu tho matters at issue betw'een
hit and tL.e Legislature, we have
given our reasons for Haying so. All
the papers of inportance, pro anl con

geteral tht.t the funding of the debt
shall be completed as rap'dly as pos.
