ANNExATIoN-The British govern
ment has declared its intention of recall
ing from its colonies the most of the
troops now serving in them. This policy
Is vigorously opposed in Canada, and
some of the papers threaten, if it is per-
sisted IN, to favor annexation of the
Dominion to the United States. IF the
Dominion must be guarded by standing
army 1t is useless for it to think of long
remaining dependency of England, for
the home government is firing Of such
expense as the military occupation Of
Canada entails and it is equally useless
for it to hope to maintain its -indepen.
dence permanently, because it certainly
can not endure the expense of standing
army. If the British troops are with
drawn from the Dominion, annexation to
the United States must be the ultimate
result. A meeting Of those in both
countries favorable to annexation is to be
held at Niagara Falls on the 4th of july
next. and the public will be able, from
the character of this meeting, to judge
how much strength the annexation move
ment has

The New Apportionment Bill.

The Congressional apportionment bill
which passed the House on Monday last
provides that after March 3, 1871, the
House OF Representatives shall be com
posed of 2T5 members. Members from
the new States coming in shall be addi-
tlonal to this number Any State whose
representation shall be decreased bv the
new apportionment shall not be affected
thereby In the Forty-seeond Congress.
Any State entitled to additional represen-
tation shall send them as members Mt
large to the Forty-second Congress. AZ
forwards, the number is to be cut down
to 275 by leaving out the surplus of
members from States not entitled to ad-
dltional representation under the new ap-
portionment.
Ii the bill passes the Senate. we shall
have to elect members of Congress under
the law this fall. IF we have popula-
ton of Zoo, 900 in the State, and there
be population of 40, 900, 900 in the
United States. the ratio of representation
Will be population of about $50. 900.
which will give Wisconsin eight represen-
tatives in the next Congress, t,oo of which
will have to be elected by general ticket
this fall.

INCOME TAX DECIsIoN-Commissi
ser Delano has written long letter upon
the question whether interest paid on a
mortgage given for the purchase money
of homestead is proper deduction
from taxable income. Heargues that tech
nically the law does not allow the deduc-
ton, but admits that it oughtin equity
to be allowed, and adds that he would
approve resolution by Congress amend
ing the law so as to allow it. Although
We believe that the courts would overrule
the Commissioner, and sustain the tax
payer who should insist upon the deduc-
ton In his return, yet the simplest and
cheapest way to settle the question is
doubtless by such resolution, which
ought to be passed at once, before the
tax is collected-as the Commissioner
admits, DISQUALIFICATION thousands of
men who cannot we'll afford to pay either
the tax or the cost of lawsuit.

OUR RAILROADS.

The Appleton papers seem to become
very quiet in.regard to the proposed con
nectlon OF their fourishing city with
ManitoWoc. The Crescent, since it has
become the official paper under K. Smith
mayoralty, is mum entirely, and friend
Stone, of the Times, is ''still hating be-
tween two opinions and admits with an
parent satisfaction the Reedy communi-
cations full Of false statements and dis
couraging propositions.
We hardly know how to account for
such actions, when we think of the vast
advantages the City Of Appleton and
the country west and north of it must
derive from an unbroken connection not
only with the shores of Lake Michigan
but with the entire eastern portion of
the United States, which latter they can
now only reach by the most circuitous
and expensive routes. We can Offer them
the advantages of a barbor unsurpassedfor
safety and extent (being near miles long
and large enough to float the entire mer-
chant feet of our inland lakes), a harbor
open at all seasons Of the year, while
Appleton's present navigable outlet is
closed srom to months out of the
twelve we can offer them through that
harbor direct eastern connection with
the mercantile capitals On the Atlantic,
which will be completed and in success
full operation as soon as Appleton will
reach US by rail +; we can offer them the
straighest possible connections with the
south by our Lake Shore Road to Mil
waukee and thence to the extent of our
dominion: We can assure them of an in
crease of manufactures, trade, commerce
population of an hundred per cent in
less than five years after our connection
by rail has been established, and still
there is something, that seems to hinder
straightforward, incorporating assent
to the liberal propositions made to the
people of Appleton by the New London
and Appleton Railroad Company.
We are glad however to learn now,
that the proposition will be voted on
without fail on the 5th of next month,
and sincely hope that Appleton will fol-
low the bright example given by Manito
woo, in voting aid for that Railroad with
out one dissenting voice.

LIE CASE OF GEoRGIA.-The Senate
bill In the case of Georgia declares the
presses State Government in Georgia
provisional, and provides that, in No

ton for the legislature. General Logan
has introduced in the House a substitute
which recognizes the validity of the pres.
ept State Government as constituted, re.
Quires a new Legislature to be elected in
November next, and admits the State to
representation at once. The Senate Dill
places the State under military rule as
heretofore. The present office-holders in
Georgia are present in large numbers in
Washington, and their favorite argument
that the State is given over to disorder
and anarchy has been answered by the
Senate bill replacing Georgia under mil
itary rule,

Mr.. Buffers scheme for the repeal of
the income tax applies only to the tax
paid BY individuals, and leaves the tax
as now paid by chartered companies upon
their dividends and profits, and incomes
from interest on mortgages and other
loans. This bill reduces the tax to one
on the income derived from money in
vested, and exemptS the income derived.
from labor. This may be accepted by
the advocates of the income tax as sub
stltute for the present law, and, though
1t does not so to the extent of repeating
the entire tax, it has the merit of doing
something in that way. and to the relief
OF the very classes upon whom the tax
falls most ruinously and oppressively.

We take pleasure in publishing the
following correspondence from our old
friend Jacob King, who was for SO MANY
years an industrious and highly respected
| resident of our County:
KAssoN, Brown Co. Kansas.
DEAR SR:-Your favor has at length
| reached me and in answer / inclose the
$500. [ see in your paper that the
Manltowalkers are having quite railroad
| tever, all talk but nothing accomplished.
Our western people have more enterprise,
say but little and go right to work they
got together over one year ago and con-
| cluded to run branch road from the
Chicago road at St. Joe Mo-, through
northern Kansas and intersect the Paci-
fe road at Denver. No more said, but
the first thing we knew, the iron horse
came snorting right along, passing over
the beautiful prairie country right into
our pretty little village, the county seat
of Brown County, which is being built up
like magic. Three years ago lots sold for
about five or ten dollars, now they are
worth that many hundred Land that was
worth about $40, 90 per acre then, sold last
summer near the county seat at from $50
to $40 per acre. This road is being
pushed westward with all possible dis
patch it passes within about A. miles
from me; we have no Judge Reed on
our railroad bonds here, the same as YOU
have; to impede the building of roads
here.
| see you had plenty of snow this win
ter; we had but little. The ground has
been bare all winter; the most that fell
did not exceed three inches and that did
not last one week. l find quite sprinkle
of Manitowalkers out here, a good many
at Origo and Salem, Nebraska, also four
families here, Corlew, Pierce, McAllister
and McGinty. Any farmers wishing to
emlgrate south or west from your place
would do we'll to inform themselves in re-
gard to the country, which they can do
by first writing to me, as [ can give them
a toierably correct history Of Iowa, Mis-
souri,, Kansas and Nebraska, as I have
taken great pains to examine for my own
satisfaction the soils, climates and general
health of each place, the advantages of
one place over another for farming or stock
raising, and prices Of land where home
steads can be obtained. The best judges
Of the soil in the North, if not acquainted
with our prairie country, are liable to be
deceived, as the soil differs materially.
No man living here can distinguish good
soil from bad by walking over the plains.
Our best wishes and respects to you
and family andinquiring friends; I hope
If L live, to see you face to face when I
can tell you more of the west, than find
room, to write you. With Respect,
JACOB KING,

Assuming that the present population

Assuming that the present population,
IN round numbers, is 40, O00, 600, and
that the public debt 50, 800, 900, 900, the
amount per capital is $3.50. But if
the debt were to remain, only the inter
est being paid, the divisions per capita
in 1880 would be $43; in 1890 s32; in
1000, $3.50. Thus in thirty years, ac-
cording to the present ratio of increase,
a division of the debt among LOG. OOO,-
600 of people, would make it fos each
individual only 1888. And by a grad
ual reduction the people would feel none
OF the present burdens of taxation, while
the amount divided by the population
would not be more than SO for each.
