may admire Mr. Hazleton's ability, NAV
commend his brilliant record in Con-

Recent developments in North Caro-
lima are of nature to greatly encourage
the belief that the old north state will
be revolutionized politically at the COM
ing election. The liberal element in that
state, composed of men who are disgust
cd with the old party methods, has been
united with the Republicans, the latter
at their recent state convention voting
to join forces. This union of the two
camps, in the minds of many of the
party leaders who are best acquainted
with the political situation, ensures the
return of six anti-Bourbon congres smen
from North Carolina next fall, as well as
good showing in the legislature.
Should this attempted break in the ranks
prove successful other states will fall
into line aud the solid South undergo
a shaking up thatwill make the founda-
tons of little use for such superstructurcs
as the Bourbon leaders have been in the
habit of erecting upon them.

THE TAX PROBLEM-SOME;SUG.
GESTIONS.

The San Antonio Express is generally
SO thoughtful and conservative in it's
( treatment of questions Of real public in
terest, that the EXAMINER is ever ready
to give careful consid deration to the prop
ositions or ideas advanced by its San
/ Antonio contemporary. II is il this
spirit that We reproduce an extract from
an Express editorial of Wednesday
morning, the much-talked of tax ques-
/ ton being the text Of the article. Start
ing with the proposition that the present
! state tax is unnecessarily high, and that
/ how to reduce it and protect the school
fund and counties without interfering
with the constitution is the problem, the
/ Express says:
/ When thequcstion Of a reduction OF the state
( tax came up At the last session OF the Ie2ss-
ture the Express, with a view Of protecting
7 the school fund ami tho counties, advocated the
maintenance of the state tax st lis then pres
/ rnt stsndari-Afty cents on the one hundred
/ dollars va!uatIOn-wIth 3 system OF rebates
! for prompt payment Of taxes that would .annrd
/ the relief desired The taxes ara pay able about
the irst of October. hlt no penalty attaches
until after March following The state could
oder = rebate OF 3 certain per cent. On all taxes
paid by january first, and smaller rebate on
all payments made ny March first anu IN this
way by making the Inducements great, almost
= not entirely DO away with q delinquent list.
By this means the state lax could be virtually
reduced, but without interfering with the
statute a. it now stands; the school fund would
not be curtai,ed and the counties could levy
! the tax atpresent provided for.
This is argued rather ingeniously, but
/ it proposes a virtual remission OF state
/ taxes levied, which Is something not war
ranted by the constitution. But even if it
were and this plan adopted, ii is to be
feared its working would give rise to
| discomfort among taxpayers. A rebate
( Of state taxes would encourage de
mand for similar leniency with re
! gard to county taxes, and however great
/ the need for IA stiff rate Of county taxa
/ tion county authorities would find gen
/ eral and persistent grumbling over the
/ ulItIthCC, turning from LilS pun, We
are furnished with another by local
correspondent preseated on another
PAGE, winch has been discussed IN the
! EXAMINER before TINS 1t will bear re-
vival, however, for it Is by all odds the
most promising theory we have seen for
! an escape out OF the difficulty. Our cor
respondent, as will be seen, holds that
the ratio Of county taxation has no rela-
ton to that of the state, save
/ the constitutional limit of twenty
/ five cents for county purposes
Under this construction Of the constI-
tuition the county tax might be full
( twenty-five cents, while the state rate
would not be higher than ten or.hfteen
cents This plan would be happy So
luton of the whole question, and We
shall be glad to find it constitutional.
II would prove very fortunate escape
/ from what Is now threatening to be d
veXatiuUs dilemma.

CABINET LUCK.

There We're two changes il the cabi-
net yesterday, caused by the retirement
of secretaries Of the interior and navy
Kirkwood and Hunt. The former is re-
ported as booked for place on the
Utah commission, and the latter gets
the very desirable post Of minister to
ST. Petersburg Hon Henry NJ. Teller,
of Colorado, the new secretary of the
interior, vacates ID seat in the senate to
accept his portfolio. He is a New
Yorker by birth, ffty-two years OF age,
and has res ded in Colorado since 1861.
He had nev-r held any office until he
went into the senate IL 1877. Wm. L.
Chandler, Of New Hampshire, secretary
of the navy, has political record
too well known 70 need special
mention. He helped the late lamented
Zachariah Chandler to steal Florida for
Hayes in 1877, and is d model stalwart.
Other nominations OF minor Importance,
as will be seen from the kilograms, were
made, but none for Texas. Appropos Of
Texas, it is stated the President Is in
clined to re-nomiuate Russell as United
States Marshal, but is bedeviIed by the
feuds Of the two republican factions m
I'll he IS almost dlsgusted.

THE LEGISLATURE.

Our Austin Specia' gives the opening
proceedings Of the extra session of the
legislature convened at Austin yester
day. The body has an immense amount
OF work mapped ont for consideration
and action-more, perhaps, than any
reasonable person expects to be attended
to. There are n few leading measures,
however, such as revising congressional,
Legislative, and judicial districts, pro-
vision for state institutions, etc, that
will receive earnest and prompt atten-
ton. If these matters are taken
up III the right spirit the stay
at Austin ought not to exceed
sixty days, APpcrtionment is per
hHps the most important of all the mat
ters likely to come before the body, and
public sentiment viii insist that it have
priority. The Governors message
is document too long to be transmit
ted by wire, b.ing over ten thousand
words in length, but as soon as it is re-
cesved by mail, i viii be placed i'll type
and presented to the readers OF the
EXAMINER.

In Mississippi it is said redistricting
has been made in such a way as unin-
tentionally to give good chance for a
gain of three republican congressional
asplrants in the legislature of that state
ana with view Of cutting out the pres
ent members and helping their own
members they have chiseled the state
INTO most grotesque districts. One con.
talns 10000 more than any other district
in the state. 1t Is said the apportion-
ment act, which requires each district
shall contain as nearly as prac icable
an equal number of inhabitants IS 81
grossly violated in the Mississjppi an
portionment that the entire delegation
might be excluded from the next con-
gress if its exclusion would serve TO give
control Of the house to either party.
Some Of the democratic committee do
not admit these claims, but they are not
confident of making very large gains.

500 acres on Flint river island. In
reality it was bartered for an old buggy
nominally worth $25. With land Of

that land can be got for so little. And

NOTES OLE THE DAY

Jesse James was buried yesterday near
kearney, Kansas, in burying-ground
belonging TO his mother No expense
was spared on the funeral and the noted
bandit was laid away as he would have
desired. As iudica i've of the sentiment
over the means used to get rid of Jesse,
1t may be stated that the ST. Louis Post
Dispatch head-lined its account OF the
killing: "a Dastardly Deed"
At several places on the Pacific slope
President Arthur was burned in etfigy rs
soon as the news of the veto was
received This is rather an evidence
that the Presidents course is defeusi-
BILE 1t is only the hoOdlum element
that burns respectable people in etfigy.
The San Francisco papers are very bit
ter IN their expressions against the
President.
Two employees OF the asylum for the
blind, at Austin. are figuring in seduc-
ton case now in the courts. 1t is con-
ceded, however, that the principal Of the
asylum, DR.. Rainey, is not to blame for
such carvings on, and he Will not have
to go, AS uperlntendents of other asy-
lums have been forcel, more than once,
to do--GeneraI McCulloch. for example.
At Tyler day before yesterday a col
ored man was elected as one of the al
dermen. II is very doubtful if such a
thing could have happened in a town
north of Mason and Dixon's line. The
colored man is fearfulIy bulldozed in
Texas.
The effort to pass the Chinese bill over
the Presidents veto was failure-there
being twenty-one senators at the Presi-
dents back. The Texas senators voted
in the affirmative.
The Connecticut legislature passed
resolutions approving the President 5
veto. The east Is Inconsistent. 1t wants
protection for manufacturers, but none
for chpaD labOr
