The Times is tie organ Of Goncral

Grant would speak. I. is also the organ

believe it now. His name is hardly
mentioned before the Democratic news
papers open on him and abuse him out
ragoously on all sides, and the Phunic
in particular. Well, all we have got to
say is, that if the Democrats hate Mr..
Chamberlain "most bitterly" they must
have some good reason for it, and, other
things being equal, the Republicans Of
the State will think that he is pretty

The Assessment.

The last Legislature passed an Act
entitled San Act to reduce aH Acts and
parts of Acts providing for tho assess
ment and taxation Of property into one
Act, and to amend the same, which pro
yides, among other things, that "thc
Judges of the Circuit Courts of this
State shall, on or before she first day of
July next, and every fifth year thereaf-
ter, appoint three intelligent tax paying
citizens in each of the counties of their
respective circuits, who, with the Coun
ty Auditor and County Treasurer shall
form Il County Board for the cqualiza
tion Of the property Of their respective
countless" &c.
Under this Act We understand that
Judge Graham appointed Joseph O'Can
Il j Fielder ami DR. Joseph Keller
One Of this Committee we understand
pays five dollars taxes, owns no real
estate, and the property Of another is
mortgngcd for purchase money.
The County Auditor recommended
the appointment Of L w Fairey, j G
Kcitt and John II Livingston, each one
of whom pays tax Of more than four
hundred dollars. We arc unadvised as
to the causes which induced Judge
Graham to make the appointment men
tened. The law was passed to
have Il just equalization. Judge Ora
ham has pooh poohed it.

They soon discovered their error in this respect
Then 1t was deemed time on the part of somebody
interested to require margin which not forth
coming, and the bubble burst, and for IA short time
very panicky feeling followed. There are whispers
in the Street to the effect that Mr.. Wright put
up" to do this fnancierng by party who at
the time, anticipated and intended just tho kind
of catastrophe which followed. Of the truth
of which, far we have been able
to ascertain there has not been produced
the least particle of evidence. Still it may be true
for all that. But we inclined to believe the
real facts in the case to bo that Mr.. Wright for him
self and his regular customers. having been induced
thereto by taking q too rose-colored view of the
"fancies." had taken heavier load of stocks than
was warranted by his capital; so finding himself
already ruined by the decline in prices on Friday,
resortcd to this desperate measure of boldly pur-
chasing some 1000 or 10000 shares of Wabash in
the vain hope of turning tho market long
enough to enable him TO retrieve his fortunes The
scheme proved a failure from the simple fact that
holders of long stock were the sellers and therefore
that as soon ~ his courage gave ont and lie dscon-
timed buying, the price Immediately declined. The
stocks sold to-day aggregated $4,000 shares, viz:
Wabash, 1920; Northwest Common, Ga, 400 Pa
