In making up these lists, il is not our OBJ

ity OF a system which legally allows one man,
and he the one best able to pay, to avoid
taxation, while i, compels the poorer class

The capitalist may invest his money in
bonds drawing interest in gold and paying
no tax, while the other class invest theirs in
real estate or merchandise, and pay tax on
every dollar.
To illustrate: There is probably not one

Judge UnderW00d's Address to the
! Grand Jury.

RICHMOND. Va, May 6.-The u. S.
District Court, Judge Underwood
presiding, commenced its session to-
day. Among the members of.the
grand jury are John M. Bolts, Joseph
Segur, Lewis Mckenzie, and five col
rored men. The Judge, in his charge,
congratulated the jury that though it
had been threatened with destruction
by assassination, yet, thanks to Con-
gress, 1t met now In security. This
promised better things for Richmond,
q city where the press had reached the
lowest depths of profigacy, the pull
pit had been prostituted by minister
ing gay Lotharios, and RIGHTEOUSNESS
had ruled until half the children
were illegitimate- The jury would
have a good deal of work, much
of it created by the decentralization of
the, people by the disloyal press,
which had encouraged perjury and
counterfeiting to cheat the Govern
ment. He called attention to the fact
that negroes were net allowed the
freedom of the street cars The Er-
dnasner has information that the ses-
sion of the Court will be prolonged
until the adjournment of the Supreme
Court, when Chief Justice Chase will
come here and preside at the trial of
Davis. s. III. Chandler, Prosecuting
Attorney, is now in New York con-
sulting DR. Evarts, Davis counsel,
about the trial Mr.. Davis will prob
ably be brought here on Saturday,

nents of the eight hour law to meet
US, at any time or place they may
deem proper to designate, to discuss
the merits aud dement's of the ques-
ton before the public. ~

nent at one time. but matters quieted
down under the earnest appeals of
some Of the leading men of the town.
The laborers finally concluded to go
to work on the eight hour rule, for a
proportional reduction of wages.
