STATE FINANCES.

An interesting article to taxpayers,
from tho Eureka Sentinel, appears
under the above head lsewhere in
these cotums. IT shows that while
times are depressed. business at a
standsilI and money scarcer than ever
before known on the Pacific Coast, the
State treasury is literally overdowing
with coin, and officials not knowing
what else to do with it are redeeming
State obligations. which do not fail
due To- five and ten years from date
This, of coarse, saves to the State the
interest on the bonds redeemed, but 1t
is al injustice to the taxpayers. There
is no good reason for taxing those now
engaged in developing the resources of
the country particularly While there is
such general stagnation n business. to
meet obligations n OF due for several
years. Every cent that miners, farm
ers and mechanics can raise is required
to bridge over the dull times. and it is
simply outrageous to tax them now TO
pay off bonds. the greater part of
which do not become due before
1887. This is the result of faulty leg
isiation, which FIXES the rate of State
taxation at 80 cents on each one hun
dred dollars worth of property at a
time when money is scarcer than ever
before since the settlement of the
State. 1t is now plainly evident that if
the advice of the editor of the Sentinel
(Senator Cassidy Of Eureka) had been
followed by the last Legislature over
hardened counties would have an op-
portunity to reduce their Indebtedness
without increasing the rate of taxation
above what it now amounts to 10 the
aggregate, while the State would have
sufficient TO meet current expenses.
The majority of the solons, however,
differed from him politically, and re-
fused to pass a bill reducing State tax
alton TO 65 cents on the 500, and the
people will have to suffer from their
biunderings.

BRIGHAM YOUNG DYING.

A dispatch from Salt Lake reports
Brigham Young seriously i'll and not
expected to live twenty -four. hours.
His death would probably solve The
Mormon problem, as there is. not in
Utah, so far as knowu, a man qualified
10 Gil his place. Difficulties will be
experienced in appointing his success
sor. as there are several claimants, and
rival asprauts will create discussions
among the saints, which will result in
the downfall Of that relic of barbarism
poly gamy. Brigham, however, may
surprise his doctors by regaining his
seaIth. and prolong the existence Of
she Church OF Latter Day Saints for
several years yet.
