The Chicago Inter Ocean OF Janua-
~ 9Th gives tabular statement OF
the debts Of the civilized nations of the
worla,1 accompanying it with chart,
showing the relative cbarge per capi-
IA Of these debts. This chart places
China at the head, with debt of 3d.
$50, 100000, coming to about 80 cents
per capita, and Western Australia at
the foot, with a debt Of only $1,000
900, but about $lS per capita. The
United States stands about midway
numerically, but approaches China
far more nearly than Australia in the
amount Of Indebtedness, which gives
per capita charge Of about ~ The
colonies Of Great Britain make poor
showing. The last six names IN the
statement (graded according to the
charge) read: New South Wales,
Uruguay, Victoria, New Zealand,
Queensland, Western Australia Eng
land, France and Egypt are only one
grad better off than these. Germa-
NY, or the contrary, stands third on
the list, with an annual charge Of some
so cents. In 1870 similar investi-
cation to this was made by Dudley
Baxter, the wellknown English sta
tistician. Mr.. Baxter showed that

$1,000. 100000. while the population

That boy was q true philosopher,
who when he lost his kite, thought he
would cry about it, but Immediately
after concluded not to, and went home
whistlin When asked if he wasn't
sorry to lose his treasure he replied:
Eyes; but can't fool away much
time in being sorry; I'm just going to
make another one, and ! guess bet

men haven't learned that lesson yet.
When they have split their milk on

a CURIOUS REVELATION.

1t appears to have been just discovered
that the attempt to blow up the Car in
his Winter Palace was really a feat de-
handing no particular care or skill, mas
much as the Winter Palace has always
been a sort of refuge for tramps and bad
characters, adding to its other character
istics that of a Russian Alsatia, OF Sanctu-
airy for fugitive criminals. As five or six
thousand persons found shelter in the
great pile of buildings, and as no
serious attempt seems ever to have
been made to ascertain the business
of all of them, nothing was easier
than to carry on such a plot without
arousing suspicion. In fact the real won.
der is that the Car should have ESCAPED So
long, for it does not seem that there was
any impediment to the designs of the
Nihilists IN the arrangements of the palace
police. After this revelation Of the laxity
which marks the conduct OF the Imperial
household, the Gar can hardly feel much
confidence in any precautions that can be
taken, for it is evident that no efforts were
made to secure the safety of his person.
and that practically there was nothing to
prevent his assassination at any time.

THE BOOT ON THE OTHER LEG.

It is stated that legislation is being pre-
pared, and will soon be introduced, limit
ing the amount of fire insurance any local
company can carry, so as to maintain some
thing like just proportion between the
risks and the assets. The exhibits made
recently of the dangerous condition of
most of the local companies through the
reckless acceptance of risks, have sug-
gested this law, ard it will apparently be
somewhat hard for the corporations con-
cerned to show that such legislation is not
demanded for the protection of the public.
The cold selfishness and hardy rapacity
manifested by these companies in their
recent efforts to drive out the Eastern and
foreign companies have no doubt stimu-
lated some resentment against them. The
proposed bill, however, seems to be in ac-
cordance with the public interest, for it is
undeniable that insurance companies that
take excessive risks are jeopardizing their
patrons in most unjustifable manner, to
use no harsher term.

CONGRESS AND THE CEINEsE oUEs-
TON

The Wright Congressional Labor Com
mittee has made strong recommendations
against the Chinese in California, and has
proposed the modification of the Burlin-
game Treaty to such an extent as would
make it possible to legislate against the
subjects of the Brother of the Sun and
Moon. At the same time news comes from
China that the Government appears
strongly disposed to revert to its ancient
policy of exclusion and isolation policy
from which that Government would never
have departed had not the Western powers
undertaken to "open up" trade with
China through the Enthusiastically
Christian medium OF broadsides and bayo-
nets. There is ia poetical retribution about
this which is not sufficiently appreciated.
China never wanted intercourse with the
rest of the world, but the rest of the
world forced it upon her; and now
those who have had the most OF
it are imploring relief from the evil.
lnSre Is llJtie uOQDG lnaG II CDe
Chinese Government is not subjected to
foreign pressure it can be easily brought to
resume its old habits of non-intercourse
and such change would of course enable
us to ship all our Monaghan visitors home
again. But should Congress propose 8
modification of the Burlingame Treaty,
and the Chinese Government propose tc
follow suit by revoking all its concessions
to foreigners, tho Western Powers would
infallibly fall foul of the whole policy
and insist that Gin the interests O!
commerce, the intercourse between the
nations should be unrestricted. This is
what has always happened in the past
when China evinced symptoms of restless
ness under the Western gospel of civiliza'
ton, and we shall have to make our ac.
count with such an obstacle in the present
instance, beyond reasonable doubt
Nevertheless, it is to be hoped that the
proposition to modify the Burlingame
Treaty may be pressed upon Congress.

TAXATION.

A great deal of nonsense has been talked
in the Legislature lately about the man
ner in which taxation is evaded, the I'M
warrantable assumption being generally
made that closer collection of taxes can
be secured by changing the revenue laws.
1t is demonstrated fact that if at any
time in the past the old revenue laws had
been faithfully and vigorously enforced,
the taxes would have been collected as
closely as they are ever likely to be. But
the truth is that the defect in the system
Of taxation lies mainly in its administra-
ton, not in its scope. The Assessor does
not obey the laws as rule, nor can he be
made TO do so while the Office is elective.
No man can take the Office and administer
it vigorously, save at the certain sacrifice
of all future hopes of political preferment.
If our Assessors were independent OF the
taxpayers upon whose property they must
operate, they could afford to make close
assessments. As it is they are practically
deprived of all independence by the sys-
tenn under which they obtain office, and
the consequence is that the law is loosely
and unevenly administered. To make
the law more stringent, however, will not
remedy this state of things. So long as
the Assessors are numbed and paralyzed
by their dependence upon the taxpayers
the old evils will continue. We might
take lesson from the history of the Judi
ciary in this connection. just so long as
Judges were appointed by the Crown, and
held office at its pleasure, the Bench was
corruptly subservient, and the people
were denied justice. From the day the
independence of the Bench was secured
corruption vanished from the English
Courts, and they have ever since been
conspicuous for their impartiality and in
tegrity. We shall in vain seek to amend
the tax laws while we deny Independence
to the Assessors, and if the legislature
realized this it would save itself the ex-
penditure of great deal of valuable time,
Mt present thrown away upon the discus
sion of points which are really of very in
considerable weight aud Importance
