Taxing Grain in Elevators.
CHICAGO, May 2sth.-Assesso
Drake of this city has decided that
grain in elevators should be assess
ed for taxes, and has instructed his
deputies to act accordingly. This
new departure will assess taxes on
about ten million dollars worth of
wheat now held in elevators here.
AS the Keene interest has a large
amount of wheat in store here
which, 1t is stated, has already
cost in the vicinity of dollar q
bushel, this movement, If carried
out, will cause considerable differ
ence in the plans of these heavy
operators.

The Vancouver independent. (Vancouver, W.T. [Wash.]) 1875-1910, 1879-05-08

The folly of southern politicians
going into course of policy that
savors of revolution, and has no ex-
cuse on any grounds whatever, is COM
ing to the surface. Already they begin
to repent, and the northern democrats
of sense are turning their backs upon
them. The Chicago Times, the most
able democratic paper in the north
west, comments upon their action as
follows:
The unconquerable confederates
show symptoms Of Generalization.
The spirit of braggadocio in which
they set out to carry forth the south
ern expungingprogra is not sub
dued, but its manifestations are a
good deal shaken up. The lofty air
of staggering insolence which said
to the representatives of northern
ideas, "We have captured the capitol
and recovered our brightright and
propose to wipe out every vestige of
your war Legislation without troubling
ourselves to ask consent by legal
FORMS" has undergone marked
change since the debate on the con-
federate programme began. The
brigadiers evidently do not feel so
confident as they did. They betray
nervousness, a loss of temper, de-
sire to evade and run away from the
meaning Of their own declarations
which betray growing consciousness
of the untenable character of the rev.
dictionary attitude they have assumed
and foreboding Of the inevitable
defeat that awaits them. Like an
army that has stupidity marched into
cm de sac they evidently begin to
discover that in destroying behind
them the bridges that furnish the only
mode of escape, they committed
fatal blunder. The discovery does
not contribute to their amiability.
They are in desperate situation
and the increasing signs of demon
alization among them reveal the fact
that they begin to wish they were
out of it.
The Vancouver independent. (Vancouver, W.T. [Wash.]) 1875-1910, 1879-05-08

To show the depth and real move
ment of the southern negro popula-
ton, we reproduce the following por-
ton ola Vicksburg, Miss. dispatch of
May 9Th, 1879, to a Chicago paper:
Notwithstanding the apparent sub
sidence of Kansas fever, planters
throughout Mississippi and the up
per portion of Louisiana are unmis-
takably alarmed. Your correspon-
dent has thoroughly examined the
situation of Is different counties of
this state and the adjoining parishes
of Louisiana, and is satisfied that I'M
less somethngnow unforeseen occurs,
northward migration of enormous
magnitude will take place in the fall.
There is no use Disgusting the stua-
ton, and those most directly concerned
are making no attempt to do SO. AS
sociations of cotton planters and kin
dred movements are taking shape
every day. Stephen Duncan, a cap
italist of New York, and owner of
large plantation interests here, has
authorized Major George E. Waddell
of Madison parish, to secure for him
FIVE hundred Chinese, and subscrip-
tons are being raised to procure suf
ficientsupply of Chinese laborers from
California at once. Arrangements are
consummated by which gangs of three
hundred at time can be shipped
from San Francisco at twenty-four
hours notice. These men are hired
at so to So per month and quarters
and rations. Their passage is con-
tracted at sl3 per capita from San
Francisco to Vicksburg and vicinity.
This movement is entirely indepen-
dent of the New Orleans joint stock
company, which proposes to import
from the cotton-growing regions of
China. This latter project will take
time, and the situation is deemed too
critical to admit of delay.

How true it is that the average

How true it is that the average
Bourbon editor seldom learns and
never forgets anything, for the truth
of which the inquiring mind is d.
rected to the Port Townsend Demo-
cratic Press, which is still pounding
at Hon. w. H. Smallwcod, who edited
this paper short time two years ago.
The Press Bourbon has not yet learned
that this paper changed hands year
and a half ago, and that Mr.. Small
woods able pen is entirely occupied
with the extensive business of the L..
S. Land office. In plain english we
will inform the Press man that Mr..
Smallwood has not written line of
editorial for this paper in nearly two
years, and that if he had done so it
would make the condemnation of
southern rebel brigadiers and their
northern dough-face allies none the
less deserved.

1t is always good evidence of the
decline of paper when it becomes
necessary to boast of its circulation.
This is the case with the Oregonian.
Portland .Standard.
Yes, and we put in little further
evidence, the Oregonian having "de-
clined" in its Vancouver circulation
from 80 copies ofthe daily, year ago,
to 125 copies of the daily at this time.
There is nothing like stating things
just as they are.

The district of country set apart tor
chief Moses and his people contains
about fifteen hundred square miles.
II lies along the British Possessions
and extends as far south as the Methow
river. The country is described as
mainly mountainous region, con-
tanning few productive valleys and
as much timber as the Indians will
ever want to utilize. 1t is understood
that the Umatillas, Snakes and sew
eral other tribes of Indians will be
sent thither. 1t remains to be seen
whether this arrangement will settle
the difficulties heretofore existing.

A terrible explosion of nitro glycer-
inc occurred on Monday in the Grand
Trunk freight sheds in Stafford, in
Canada, killed several men and des-
troyed $50 cars and sheds. The
wreck beggar's description. Under
meath the dynamite car hole sew
eral feet deep was scooped out. The
end Of the brick freight shed and a
portion of the room were blown down.
Several frame buildings were leveled
to the ground and long strings of
freight cars in the yard were utterly
demolished. The business part of
the town is nearly a mile from the
scene Of the explosion, but it shared
the disaster. The total damage was
over S25O,00O.
