DECEMUEU II. 1892 TAI.K about compulsory education for the children of school age. A little more political education for the adults would not be out of order. A DATJGHTEB of Jacob Mack of York has mysteriously disappeared from home, and there are no traces of her where abouts. She has been gone two weeks. W. H. Ibyine, who was on trial at Lin coln for killing Montgomery, has just begun suit against his wife in a Salt Lake court, for divorce on the grounds of adultery. In northwestern Now Mexico drought has existed for two years and all streams are dried up and at' the lowest estimate 75,000 to 100,000 head of cattle have died from starvation and lack of water. Rail roads are shipping cattlo out by train loads, but most of them will die, being too weak to withstand shipment. Sheep are in almost as bad condition. John Biaik of Beatrico wass killed by the cars in the B. x M. yards while re turning homo drunk ono night and his heirs brought suit against three saloon ists of the city, claiming that tho liquor was bought of them. Tlio damages asked were S5,000. Tho jury agreed as against one saloonist, but disagreed on the other two. Tho case will go to trial a second time. A VEBr significant contribution to tho discussion of reform in electoral methods is an article in tho Review of Reviews for December entitled "How to abolish tho Gerrymander.' It describes verv fully some reforms in Switzerland which do away with tho district system and pro vide for representation of minorities. It 18 an article which lawmakers and polit ical reformers everywhere in the United States will find it to their interest and advantage to read. The December Review of lie views has a brief but well digested summary of tho most important legislation enacted by American State legislatures in the year 1892. It will bo of particular interest to members of the numerous State legisla tures which will meet in January. It has been prepared by Mr. William B. Shaw, of the State Library at Albany, whoso task it is to summarize tho legislation of all the other States for the convenience and benefit of tho New York State leg islature. The New York World joyously shouts "there is no calamity in sight.' Along about two months ago tho World had to use its coat sleeves to wipe away the briny tears as it wroto about '"tho rob ber tariff' and "tho distress of the peo ple." The World may be cheered now for a prospective relief, but the same old "robber tariff,' and tho same wicked republican laws are in full forco and likely to bo for some time to come. Democratic brethren should avoid shouting too loud about any conditions of present prosperity. Inter Ocean. The Fremont Tribuno links tho f nturo to the past in a paragraph that may rove interesting to politicians. Wo are ed to wonder it there really are several republican candidates for senator. But we must not forgot tho Tribuno: "If Chairman Cady would get sixty-seven signatures of the members elect of the legislature to an agreement to support Paddock for senator, us Chairman Rich ards got 100 for Manderson four years ago, it would take an awful load off tho old man's mind. Why doesn't Cady do it? Is it because ho has up a galvanized rod with a gold point, himself? Or is it because he believes no human power can get sixty-seven votes for Paddock?" ALASKA, if tho tide of immigration once sets towards it, will justify its pur chase by the United States from Russia. The imports last year, of machinery, merchandise, powder, clothing, provis ions, tools, furniture, &c, amounted to $2,1644538; and tho exports, of fish, furs, whalebone, ivory, oils, gold and silver bullion, ores and curios, to $7.75y,0G4. Salmon alone was S3,157,17(5, whalebono $1,210,625, and seal skins $755,5S7. Po tatoes and turnips have been raised in tho Yukon valley. Excellent gardens in southeastern Alaska attest the possibili ty of limited agricultural success. In this section there are some horses, cows and mules which thrive and grow fat, requiring to be fed only three months of the year and living for tho balance upon rich summer pasture. Senator Chandler, it is said, will head a crusade against immigration, having for its purpose tho shutting out of all immigrants for a period of at least five years. The joint committee of the senate and house havo spent many months investigating immigration, and will doubtless be ready to make report shortly, when the discussion will begin. There may bo good reasons to restrict immigration still further than is now done, but that such a radical proposition can become law, wo do not believe. The quick acquisition of tho full rights of citizenship has been a special feature with most of the western states "men- less lands need men," but now that most of them are reasonably well sup plied, public attention is being directed to the evils of unrestricted immigration. Perhaps a solution of the problem may be found upon which all political parties can agree. The present laws, if strictly enforced, would be satisfactory, we think, to the country at large. One thing that should receive atten tion at the hands of tho legislature this winter is the passage of a law regulating the assessment of real and personal property. As it is at present there is no uniform method of assessing property in the various counties. In some localities property is assessed at one-third its Talue, in others at one-fourth, and there are instances where property is not assessed at more than one-sixth of its value. There is something radically wrong in this mode of doing business, as some counties pay much more than their just share of taxation for state purposes, while others pay much less. This should, in some way, be equalized. In our opin ion the only proper way to remedy this matter is to pass a law that shall provide for the assessment of all property at its actual cash value. This would place every taxpayer on an even footing. Under this mode of doing business the levies would not have to be so high, and every dollar's worth of property would bear its 'proportion of taxation. Of course such a change in the law would not be looked upon with favor by railroad companies and other lanre corporations, but that (act should not deter our members in the I legislature from doing their duty by the people. We believe that there are enough fair-minded, justice-loving members elected to tie next legislature to secure the passage of such a measure as we hereof speaTs. Not alone would such a measure provide equal taxation for all property, but it would place our own state in a better light before tho citizens of other states. As it is at present, our state is quoted at not more than one fourth of its actual value, while our bonded and mortgaged indebtedness ap pears in round numbers without any reduction. Let such a law be passed and tho peoplo will rise as one man and bless their representatives for introducing and fighting through such a beneficial meas ure. Howells Journal. EAGER TO JOIN THE UNION Strong Treasure Being Exerted In Con gress by the Territories. Washington, Dec 12. The strong pressure that is being exerted by the territories makes it now probable that a joint conference of Democratic Sena tors and Representatives will be held within a few days to determine the steps to be taken by the party in the two Houses in relation to the admis sion of the territories into the Union. New Mexico, Arizona and Utah have been clamoring for enabling acts or bills tending ultimately to State hood, and a considerrble clement in Oklahoma thinks that territory has also arrsved at a state of maturity. Some of these bills have already passed the House and are pending in the Senate, but it is possible the party may now consider the policy of favor ing an omnibus bill admitting all these territories to Statehood at lone time. SHOUTING FOR DANA. The Xevr Tork "Herald" Ursine the Editor of the "Sun" for tho: Senate. New York, Dec. 1-'. The Herald says editorially this morning: We find it impossible to agree with our contemporary, the Sun, ",in its sup port of Edward Murphy, Jr., for the Sepate, and fail to sec the force of its reasoning in the premises. We have named Mr. Dana for that position because he is both independent and impartial. He will neither persistently obstruct nor blindly . acquiescejin the President's wishes. He is large minded enough to both give and take advice. Murphy, on the other hand, is the tool of Tammy, Hill, Croker and company. He is the echo of his masters. For the honorable position of Senator we require a statesman, not a local boss; a man of wide informa tion concerning national issues, not a mere wire puller; a man who will honor the office, not one who will bo honored by it. BEATTY'S GAME FOILED. An Escaped Pittsburg Prisoner Taken at Louisville from a River lloat. Louisville, Ky., Dec. 12. Robert J. Reatty was arrested here at a late hour last night. He was taken from the steambort Sanlahica of Pittsburg. A couple of detectives were in waiting for him. The charge against him is that of conspiracy to murder. A short time ago, it will be re membered, a number of the men at Homestead who had taken the places of the strikers were poisoned. Reatty was suspected and arrested. He asked permission to go on board the boat named above to get his coat. Once on board the Captain refused to give him up, and the boat steamed down the river. That was the last seen of boat or man until they reached here last night. MRS. CLEVELAND GOES HOME She and Baby Kutli Leave Labewood for Jfew York. Lakewood, N. J., Dec 12. Mrs. Grovcr Cleveland and Raby Ruth left here by the early morning train for New York, where they will remain about three weeks. Mrs. Cleveland will then return to take possession of the diminutive "White House," as tho Cleveland cottage has been christened since it was painted a snow-white. Many of the cottagers were at the station to bid Mrs. Cleveland adieu. Dumping Ground for Paupers. New York, Dec 12. A correspond ent says that it has made the astounding discovery that for months, and even for years past, the State'au thorities of Massachusetts have been sending their paupers, idiots and in curables to this city by wholesale and dumping them in batches of a dozen or more at a time upon the town with out any means of support or subsist ence, and apparently in the expecta tion that they would eventually drift into charitable institutions here. Ac cording to the information this prac tice is one that has become regularly established, and this clearing out of the Massachusetts poorhouse is a matter of weekly occurrence. They are almost all sent to New York, it would appear, because in the great city they arc more easily scattered, and their coming here attracts little attention. Will Not Reduce Mileage. Atlanta, Ga., Dec 12. The ex pected strike of the Savannah, Florida & Western engineers has been averted. The management had determined on a reduction in mileage of the engineers from 3M to 3 cents, but yesterday Superintendent Fleming and the com mittee got together a conference, Chief Arthur being present, and after dis cussion the superintendent agreed that the old contract should continue in force after Jan. 1 as now. Rail Mill to Be started Again. Betui.euem, Pa., Dec 12. It is an nounced that the rail mill of the Bethlehem Iron company, which was shut down Tuesday, would be started next Monday and that the entire Bes semer mill, employing1 seventy-five men, will run at least two weeks. This will tide the workmen over Christmas. An effort will be made to keep the mill going all winter. Cen. Kosecrans Much Hotter. "Washington, Dec. 12. At midnight Gen. Bosecrans was resting easily and there was every indication that he would pass a quiet night. The General himself maintains that he is much better. Mentally he is brighter than for some days past The General now hopes that he will soon resume his desk in the Treasury department. ADDITIOXAL LOCAL. Humphrey Briefs.
