THAT ATTEMPTED MORNING PAPER

THAT ATTEMPTED MORNING PAPER
Dave Blakely lacked last night nineteen
hundred and forty eight of securing the de-
sired two thousand subscribers for his pro-
posed morning paper in Minneapolis. We
fear David will not make the movement a
success. The people up there I'M
derstand that the Tribune, which he
now conducts, is owned in st. Paul,
and if he should issue morn
ing paper it would be partner of the
Pioneer Press and owned in St. Paul ALSO
What the Minneapolitans want is a paper
owned in their'own town and edited and
directed by Minneapolis men. at present
Minneapolis has no daily paper of it's own,
either morning or evening. It is a good
opening for live man to start paper, but
in the meantime, as long as they have to de-
pend entirely on st. Paul for their papers,
we would cordially recommend the GLOBE
The p. p. is double barrelled hypocrite
and is really traitor both to St
Paul and Minneapolis. The GLOBE
simply processes to be st. Paul paper with
manlness enough to treat Minneapolis
fairly, and intelligence enough to know that
the prosperity of one city is not advanced
by the destruction of the other.
We are sorry David's scheme is failure.
for we would really like to see Minneapolis
have daily paper of her own, and she
ought to have one without delay.

Reports of the Condition of These Cereals
to the Department of Agriculture.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 14.-The September re-
turns to the department of agriculture give the
average condition of the corn crop at 80,
against Sc in August. 1t is slightly above the
condition reported in September 1877, which
was 81. The crop held its own i'll the northern
portion of the Atlantic slope and on the Pacif-
ic coast. 1t slightly improved in the States
north of the Ohio, but fell off 10 per cent. in
States west of the Mississippi. The Southern
States as whole fell off about per cent. OF
921 counties reporting. 251 were full average,
27S above, and 391 below.
September returns indicate an average of 81
in the wheat crop against 81 in September, 1877.
The reduction is mostly due to disasters to the
spring wheat crop in the West. A preliminary
examination of the returns of the acreage in
dictate that the breadth shown in 1878 was
about one sixteenth greater than in 1877 This
will more than compensate for the loss from
decline in condition, and may probably bring
up the yieldsto the estimate of 100000, COO
bushels.

CHANGE OF SYSTEM.
The following resolution offered by Mr.. Hay
den was unanimously adopted:
RESOLVED, That whereas, in examing and
equalizing the valuation of real and personal
property in the State the State board of equal
ization have found their labors greatly in
creased and complicated by the apparently
loose and inefficient manner in which the as
sessment of property is made in most of the
towns, and believing that a great saying of
labor to the State and local boards of eqnaiza-
tion as we'll as a saving of expense to the tax
payers and more just and equal valuation Of
property can be effected thereby, would respect
fully ask the Legislature to so amend the
office of assessor as to make each county an
assessment district, and provide for an assessor
in each district to be appointed by the district
judge, the auditor and register of deeds of
each county for term of years, thereby max
ing the Office one of such importance and dura-
ton that persons appointed thereto can afford
to qualify themselves to perform the duties in
diligently and efficiently.

The following, offered by Mr.. Dawson, was
adopted:
Resolved That the legislature be recon

scribed that it shall be the duty of each county
auditor to cause to be made and laid before
the county boards of equalization at
their biennial sessions, real estate

On motion of MIR. Whitcomb, Blue Earth,
Faribault, and Wabashaw were excepted from
the operation of Mr.. Lemicke's resolution in
reference to assessment of town, village, and
city property, and that said property he raised
in accordance with the ratio prescribed for said
counties.
There being no further business to come be-
fore the board adjournment without day
was had.
The session of the board has been prolonged
and arduous. Considerable diversity of opinion
was demonstrated, especially as to the
proper disposition as to the matter OF
the equalization of the valuation of town,
village, and city property, each member
earnestly and at times warmly urging his par
ticular views, but finally all differences were
| adjusted, or perhaps compromised would be
the better term, upon the terms given in the
GLOBE reports, most of which, however, are
embraced in the proceedings of yesterday.
Owing to the lateness of the hour the board

Mr.. Wilson moved that the city and village

VILLAGE AND CITY VALUATION.
Mr. Lemicke offered the following:
Resolued, That the resolution adopted by this
board by which it was ordered that the real
property within villages and cities be raised
and lowered in the same proportion az the lands
in the towns, subject to certain exceptions, and
all changes made under in pursuance of said
resolution, be and the same are hereby re-
scinded.
Resotged, That the valuation of all real estate
within the limits of villages and cities, whether
incorporated or not, be left the same as equal
lied and returned by the several counties in the
State, except in tie village of North Branch, in
Chisago county. and Grand Falls and Duluth.
MIR. Whitcomb moved to amend that a COM
mlttee OF three be appointed to examine and
report upon the valuation in the different
cities and villages. Lost.

A motion by Mr.. ssip was adopted that the
valuation of North Branch in Chisago county,
be reduced % per cent.
MIR. Sjoberg moved that the valuation of
Grand Falls be reduced so per cent, which
motion prevailed.
The following resolution by Mr.. Seip was
unanimously adopted:
ST. LOUIS COUNTY.
WHEREAS, An equitable adjustment of the
valuation of the lands in st. Louis county,
with other counties in the State would entitle
| said county to a reduction of 25 per cent. upon
the valuation returned, thereby reducin &
the burden of the State tax Is per cent;
WHEREAS, st. Louis county has large in
| debtedness to provide for, and reduction of
the valuation to the extent referred to would
seemingly affect the amount required to be
raised for local purposes, largely increase the
rate of taxation upon personal property;
| Therefore, In view of the above considera-
| lions and upon recommendation of the board
| of the 18th judicial district:
ReSolUed, That the real estate valuation OF
| st. Louis county remain as returned.
| Mr.. Seip moved that the valuation of the
city and village of Duluth be reduced 10 per

his heathenish habi,iments. He first ap-


pears in q pair of ready-made pantaloons;
then puts his undergarments within them;
soon acquires vest, and discerds his uncom-
Portable and homely blouse, and
even goes SO far as to don white starched
shirt. Then, as if appalled, at the metamor-
phosis accomplished, the civilizing element
takes another rest, perhaps to prepare for
the final onslaught upon the last vestige of
heathendom, the broad, round felt hat. The
citadel is approached by stealth. First an
indentation is knocked into the crown, then
the Sizes are turned up little, and perhaps
before the wearer knows it his caput is
adorned with very fair imitation of an AL
pine hat, which in rare instances is sup
planted by plug. Then the work of civil
ization is complete, and the Chinamsn is no
longer "John,'' but Mr.. Chin Lee. In the
meantime he has acquired all the vices of the
! Mclean man, and can swear, smoke and
drink with the best of them.
The process of civilizing the Indians is
quite as tedious, but works in an entirely
different direction. The first evidence we
have that Lo has been brought within the
magic charm of civilized humanity is when
we see his head adorned by magnificent
plug hat, probably little the worse for o
seasons wear. From his head downward
the disease progresses. After his hat ap-
pears coat in lieu of his blanket; then he
suddenly appears upon the street arrayed in
| oh, st {o
bosom, ornamented with a large b: ass pin
and plentiful supply of tobacco juice; after
time his buckskin leggings disappear
mysteriously and their place is supplied by a
pair of fashionably-c trousers. Here the
savage and the civilized in his being come to
dead lock. He cherishes his moccasins as
tenderly as does the Chinaman his round fell
hat, and long after he has become otherwise
logged in the raiment of the pale face he dog
gedly refuses to give up his moccasins
It is not till he has been engaged in a street
fight or two, and the utility of good cow
hides as means of offense and defense has
been knocked into him, that he finally be-
comes wholly joined to civilization. But
the process once completed, it is permanent
It will be interesting for scientists to watch
the career of these two races with view tc
ascertaining which process Ct civilization is
the best-whether that which begins with
the hat and ends with the boots, or thai
which begins with the boots and ends witt
the hat, will be productive of the most be
nefcent results; and if, when this is ascer
tanned, it will be possible to apply civiliza
ton in that direction. If it shall be proved
that it is best to begin civlizing the heather
at the bottom, our missionaries must bt
provided with plentiful supply of cowhide
boots; if at the top, we must take up col
lections Of old plug hats in our churches
with which to stock the mission stations
The difference noted between the two race,
is, however, worthy Of the attention of phi
losophers and all others interested in tn.
progress of civilization. We suggest tina
it form the topic of discussion at the mex
session of the social science association.

HOW JOHN AND 10 BECOME CIVIL

HOW JOHN AND 10 BEcOME CIVIL
ICED.
Is our civilization failure? We think
not. Year after year it is extending its in
fuence over the nations of the world, and
ono after another of the barbarous tribes of
Asia and Africa are acknowledging its sway.
The arts and sciences are making wonderful
progress, and cropping out in some unex-
pected places, much to the surprise of people
generally. For many decades it has been
the current belief in this country that all
efforts towards the civilization of the H.
dams and the Chinese were thrown away:
that nature had never constituted them for
civilization. But during the past ten years
the leaven has begun working in their midst,
and there are now some fine colonies of
civilized Indians to be found, while in the
large cities, cases of Cinnamon who have
adopted civilized attire and modes of life are
no longer so exceptional as to be remark
able.
Rut it is amusing to note the way in which
civilization first attacks these two races. A
Chinamen is first seized with desire to be-
come civilized in his feet, ana the first token
that that desire has become operative is seen
in his discarding his ungainly felt shoes and
parading the streets with his feet encased in
substantial leather boots of American manu-
facture. For time tho civilizing leaven
appears to lie dormant, but when it next
awakeus to activity it makes short work Of

UP to Friday evening at six o'clock there
had been 1866 deaths from yellow fever at
New Orleans, LAS at Memphis, 481 at
Vicksburg, PIT at Grenada, and about $50
at other points, total of 4,519. Although
for want of material to work upon at the

reached it's eliminating point, it has spread

The mortality among journalists of the
South has been far greater in proportion
than among any other class of the popula,
ton. The editors and reporters have brayely
stuck to their posts, and their duties calling
them to the bedsides of the dying and the
resting places of the dead more frequently
than any others save the physicians, they
have been unusually exposed to the contagion.
They have all died with their harness on,
however, and it cannot be justly claimed that
in times of danger they forsook their posts.

The recent disaster to the Austrian arms
in Bosnia bodies no good for the peace of
Europe. Her forces have been obliged to
retreat to safe position at Brod, where they
will await reinforcements. The treaty
of Berlin only allowed Austria fifty
thousand men as an army of occu-
patton. This force has been found
insufficient, and despite the treaty
provisions Francis Joseph will no doubt send
larger army to subdue the recalcitrant Bos-
mans. This will furnish Russia what she
