union of the two bodies was. effected
under the Grand Nastership of the

however, became the first Grand
Master of the United Grand Lodge.

St. Louis Republican: The Chica-

upon the highway robbers which in
fest the streets, and the police who
seem to protest them. In one quar-
ter full OF residences the foOt-pads
are able 10 ply their calling with i'm
punity, and no policeman il ever
seen there. II seems as if the
police bad fArmed out this section
to the thieves. The other night at
1890, George Granuit was going
home from his store, carrying his
keys and money, as is his wont. He
was set upon and beaten into insen-
sibIlity and robbed by three foot
pads. His keys we're taken, and
when he woke up he went to the
police headquarters and told how
he had been treated, He was advis-
ed to keep the matter quiet, but
subsequently learned that two per
vious highway robberies had lately
been committed near the spot where
he had fallen among the thieves.
The police had kept them quiet
too; and yet no effort had been
made to rid the neighborhood of the
marauders. These facts induced
Grannis TO mako his adventure with
the foot-pads public, and he told tho
papers. They got $50 out of him.

Governor Tilden, of New York, in
his recent message, states that Gin the
decade beginning July, 1875, the PEG
pie will have paid in taxes s., OOO, 600,
O00-three fifths for the use of the Fed
eral Government, and two-fifths for
the State and Municipal governments. "
The sum is nearly one-half the total
assessed wealth of the country (SI4,-
COG, 0OO, O00) in 1870. The yearly av-
erage is 800 00O, 900, equal TO 5 per
cent. on the whole taxable valuation.
Il appears then that our total taxes
are . per cent. a year on assessed
wealth, and that in every twenty years
a sum equal to all the assessed wealth
of the country is consumed in the cost
of governing it.
