The proposiHio pn..g before
the Legislature to withdraw irnm
sale lands that have iapsed to the
State Tor default VI taxes, looks
like mild and humane measure 0
rclicf. II is in no sensc an "Gbate-
ment act" as the judgement -tand-
against the land including tax, 60 t
and damages, none OF which are
abatcd in the bill. 1t simply gives
helpless people, or those unable TO
pay their taxes, Il little more time
in which to do II, ex ending this
opportunity to the first OF Decem,
Der.
The late decislcn of the Supreme
Court OF Bowers w. Virdcn, vas Il
great surprise and shock 10 the
community. 1t was 4 complete re.
versal OF all exist 6 opinions on
the validity OF lax titles, an
caught many good people in II most
unfortunate plight. They ale OBJ
jocts of Ply and de~crve sympathy
and %reIiot, espcecIalIy MS no detri-
mcnt will be done to the State.
In the case decided by the Sn,
prcme Court a vuiuab'e property
in Madison was bought for taxes
and the owner has been compelled
ont only TO relinquish his land but
absolutely to pay rent 10 the TAX
THE purchaser Tor the la t year the
rent being ovefS700.
1t is easy 10 say that the party
shoGld have paid his AGES, and
so'ne will he harsh enough to say
h" was served right. But such
dOctriue is not public policy, Ger
ta'nly moi humanity, in our anoluu.

Chinese IN Oregon.

The following bill, introduced in the Oregon
Legislature and passed by the House on the 18th
ult., shows the drift of public sentiment in that
State
Section l. That from and after the passage of
this act, it shall be unlawful to employ any Chi
nese laborers on any street, or part of street, of
any city or incorporated town of this State, or
on any public work or public improvements of
any character, except as a punishment for crime,
and all contracts which any person or corporation
may have for the improvement of any such street,
or part of street, or public works or improve
ments of any character, shall be null and void
from and after the date of any employment of
any Chinese labOrers thereon by the contractor.
Sec. ,. Inasmuch as there are large numbers
of Cinnamon working on the streets of the vari-
GUS cities in this State, and on the public works,
to the detriment of our citizens and taxpayers.
this act shall take effect and be in force from and
after its approval by the Governor.

The President

Has been making q tour through the North
Western States and addressing the people upon
the various live issues Of the day. In returning
to Washington he passed through Pit.sburg, Pa,
where he was welcomed BIZ an immense crowd Of
people as the Exposition Building, to whom he
made q short speech touching upon the al I'M
portant topics Of finance and business depression
throughout the country. Hc spoke fully on the
great questions OF the day, going over the same
ground and making the same arguments as made
IN his speech at -. Paul. lie predicted the
return OF national prosperity, and drew a most
hopeful picture OF the condition in the West. Tie
pointed out the fact that cur national debt was
getting smaller every year. and that outstanding
obligations were being funded at lower rates Of
interest, thus efecting an enormous saving every
year He referred TO the gradual appreciation
OF the currency, and showed that the lower and
l2borfng classes were always the sufferers from
q shlitless currency He promised the fact that
We had nearly or quite reached a permanent basis
Of values, and characterized the present time as
one from which we could 90 forward and enter
upon an era Of good times, or by unwise conduct
and perniei0us legislation, postpone indefinitely
the return of prosperity. He warned the people
against the characterization Of the precious metals,
and deprecated any legislation looking TO that
end. In conclusion, be made a most eloquent
appeal 10 the people as a nation 10 guard jealous
ly the national credit for an honest money. II
wish 10 say, finally, that honest capital has needs
and has rights, and there Is honest capital,
honest business enterprise and skill has rights
and has needs, and there is honest business enter
prise; and honest labor has needs and has rights,
and there is an abundance of honest labor
