STRIKING AT THE RooT.-The com
mitee appointed by the farmers of Flor
in, Sacramento county, to confer with
Legislative candidates, ask for their first
question "Will you give your support to
more stringent law requiring Assessors
10 fix the same amount Of assessment on
uncutivatcd, as upon cultivated land
of tho same agricultural capacity ?"-
The question is one affecting not
only tho farmers, but every class
OF tax payers. As our revenue laws are
now construed, they are practically n
premium on idleness, or to capitalists to
hinder the progress of improvement
Lands of good agricultural capacity which
have lnin umimproved for years, are as
sc,scd at n nominal figure per acre. Lands
alongside Of those, on which some practi-
cal farmer has settled and made into a
comfortable home by his labor, are set
down at a high valuation. There is no
sentiment Of Justice in any such law, ye.
il is the one which rules and thereby re-
lards the development of the State. Bod
les Of valuable land comprising tens of
thousands of acres, are held by speculat-
or'. As the State grows in wealth and
population the value of these lands in
crease year by year. But the Assessor S
books do not show this fact. The indust-
~ Of tho country is taxed to protect the
'loth. 1t almost seems as if legislation
was so framed. Even in the Town SITE
law, tho assessments upon improved land
are n ore than double those upon the un-
imp owed, il bling five dollars per acre for
the one two dollars per acre for the 9TH
er. Yet tho lands lpay lay side by side
and he of the same productive capacity.
II is full time that our laws were framed
di1erently-that We quit legislating to
make the poor poorer, and the rich richer.
The move of the Sacramento farmers is
one in the right direction, and if it should
be followed by similar demands in other
agricultural counties, cannot fail 10 dive
the land holders who keep their big tracts
twai.ing Cor raise" to cut them up into
small farm and sell them TO actual set
Tiers. When this is d ne we will begin
10 solve ono phase Of the labor question
by creating more homes and more en-
ploytr.

SAN FRANCIsCo, March 0.-Tho Homo
lulu Gazette OF February 2S, contains an
account Of remarkable submarine vol
cano outbreak in Kealckanan Bay, near
the entrance 10 the harbor. The natives
report that the eruption occurred al
o'clock on the morning Of the oath, ap.
pcaring like innumerable red, blue and
green lights. In the afternoon several
boats visited ii, cruising over the most
active part, where the water was in
n state Of peculiar activity, boiling and
appearing as il passing over rapids, or
very much like the water at He'll Gate,
New York. Blocks Of lava two feet
square came up from below, frequently
striking and jarring boats. As the lava
was quite soft no harm was done. All
the pieces on reaching the surface were
red hot, emitting steam and gus strongly
sulphurus. A rumbling noise was heard
like that OF rocks in freshet, caused no
doubt by the eruption Of lava from q
submarine crater which, il is supposed
by the crack or line Of the rupture, ex.
tends mile at least from the shore.
Another rupture, doubtless a continua-
ton OF the submarine iissure, was traced
inland from the shore nearly three miles,
ranging in width from few inches TO
three feet. In some places the water was
seen pouring down into the abyss below,
A shock Of an earthquake was felt by
those living at Koowalva and Kcll dur.
ing the night Of the eruption, which must
have preceded the outbreak. 1t twas quite
severe, but no damage is reported.

In order TO make this truthful sketch

Some eighteen years ago there died in
Chicago Mr.. William Mcmillan, Grand
Lecturer o! the Grand Lodge oil Illinois
Masons, leaving widow and two young
children, boy Of three years and girl
