The constitutional convention will have
many interesting problems to solve, all OF
them looking to the relief Of the tax bur
dened people OF the State This relief must
be permanent, not merely temporary. The
hope Of the masses is that the work OF the
convention will last at least generation. 1t
cannot be better begun than by laying down
as basis for the new governmental structure
to be reared the principle that the rate Of tax
alton for all purposes shall never exceed five
mills. Having established this principle, the
delegates would find their work much sim
plihed and what appeared to be very knotty
problem one easily determined. The people
can Afford to pay a tax rate Of fivemills or
iess and pay promptly. When it exceeds

Gus delinquencies, the State treasury will be

Another disaster to the British arms is
reported from South Africa. When Lord
Chelmsford invaded Zululand he made his adj
vance in three columns. After the massacre
at Isandula two OF these were successfully
Withdrawn, but the third, under Col. Pear
son, not having received Information Of the
British reverse and consequent backward
movement, made no effort to retire and was
surrounded by the victorious Zulus near
Ekowe, about forty miles In the enemy's
country. This force consisted OF some
two thousand men, one-half Of whom were
Europeans. 1t was strongly posted and
all the direct attacks Of Cetywayo's army
were repulsed. The great danger to Col.
Pearson's force consisted in the lack Of pro-
visions to sustain prolonged siege, such as
IL would be necessary to Withstand before q
sufficiently strong force could be organized
to penetrate the investing lines and relieve
him. What was feared seems to have hap
pened Driven to desperation, Pearson at
tempted to make sortie In force for the pur-
pose OF breaking out. The little party was
promptly met by the overwhelming masses
Of the Znlus and almost completely de-
stroyed, while the remainder Of the force is
cooped up more closely than before. It il
now believed in London that the entire col
umn will be lost. AS a matter of course great
excitement prevails.

WHAT ARE THEY FOR7

Very many people are beginning to inquire
what earthly uses are subserved by the ex-
travagantly paid ministers the United States
government commissions to represent 1t at
the various foreign capitals.
The Washington Post, In a pungent article
to this query, attracts attention to the emf.
nent services being rendered at this particu-
lar time by these gentry. Minister Taylor is
now dead, and was when alive most estima,
BILE and accomplished gentleman; yet it is
well known that the mission to Berlin was
given him chiefly for the purpose OF enabling
him to write the life Of German poet. This
was very laudable purpose and much bet
Ter one than usually prompts the appoint
ment OF minister to 9 foreign court. Yet 1t
can hardly be seriously argued that it lis the

It is evident from the recent Radical sue
cesses in the French Assembly that the
French Communists who were tried in 1871
for the excuses committed by them during
the rule Of the Paris Commune will be am
nestled and allowed to return home. The
total number Of Communists arrested In 1871
was 10000 OF these 10000 were condemned,
and 1000 sent to New Caledonia. The am
nesty, signed by MacMahon In January last
pardoned all but 902. These, it is now pro-
posed, shall be conveyed back to France. The
amnesty will doubtless recall the many Com.
munists in exile In England, America Bel.
GUM and Sweden. There are about 300 Of
them in New York, one-third of whom, it is
thought, will return to France.

Iowa Is beginning to realize the evil effects
Of foreign capital and the immense drain 1t
Is on the resources Of that State. Iowa Is the
champion agricultural State, and produces
larger and more valuable crops, In proper
ton to the population, than any State in the
Union; and yet, such is the drain On it's re-
sources to pay the dividends and in
terest on foreign owned capital, that 1t
never grows rich. The railroads Of
Iowa, with $15Oo00.ooO Of railroad stocks
and bonds, are owned by 7799 persons,
6471 OF whom live out OF the State, holding
$148, SOC, 900 of these bonds and stocks. Life
and fire insurance takes 100000 In pre-
miums out of the State each year, and return
only S3,5O0,O00. In fact, these two items Of
capital cost Iowa yearly about $13,0oo,oo0, a
heavy drain on any State. No wonder Iowa
| is becoming FESTIVE under this burden.

i irrost Averv State Legislature Il now

Almost every State Legislature Is now re.
stricted to biennial sessions. In Illinois they
now propose to 90 even farther. A bill is
before the Legislature Of that State which
makes the legislative sessions Biennial but
restricts the matters to be considered BY
these biennial sessions to the regular appro-
negotiations and tax levies. The bill pro-
yides that, for the purpose OF law-rnaking
the Legislature shall meet but once every
six years. It IL thought that plan like this
would put an end to the great evil OF Amer
ica--too many hastily devised and unconsti
futionaI laws.

Chicago cast $1,000 votes In the late cleo
tion and st. Louis only $4,000. The press Of
the former city now want the st. Louis jour
mails to reconcile the vote with that big direc-
tory, II they can. They also want to know
how 1t La that st. Louis with larger (claimed)
population polls only little more than half
the number Of votes that Chicago does. II
begins to look as II the Chicageese were get
ting the best OF the controversy. II votes go
to show anything, Chicago has the largest
population, When this important question
n settled the country will breatt.s,e easier.
