TAXATION INEVITABLE.

e propose to require every candidate who !
seeks oar support, to pledge that no tax for
state purposes shall be levied next year.
Richmond Nation.
Let US assume, for arguments sake,
that the Nations candidates, thus
pledged, are elected-that majority
Of the next legislature is committed
TO such policy, and that an act is
passed remitting all state taxes for
next year. We dismiss the question
now the state is to get along during
he year, assuming (stlll for argu-
ments sake) that the state can live on
the million dollars cash balance now
in the treasury. But this Considera-
ton disposed of, how does the Nation
propose TO provide for the expense of
carrying on the county governments 2?
1t will take, for example. $4,000 to
run the county of Fort Bend (the Ma
toms home county, next year. Ill
Fort Bend has now Sl5 900 surplus,
free from present or prospective de-
mands, she can use that (as the state
might the "cash balance') to carry Oh
her courts, jails, etc. But Fort Bend
hasn't got any $4,000 surplus. We
question if she has fifteen cents over
and above what she owes. How is
she to get the $4,000 needed ? By
taxation tor county expenses, the Ma
ton will doubtless reply. There is
an instrument known as the state
constitution, and it provides that a
county shall not levy an ad
valOrem tax, for its current
expenses, exceeding one-half OF the
state tax for the year. II the state
tax is forty cents the county may
levy twenty cents-not farthing
more. If the state does not levy anv-
thing, as the Nation desires, it follows
that the county can levy just half OF
nothing. Does the Nation catch the
idea? When the state RENTS taxation
the counties must follow suit. Most
of the counties are in debt few are
out Of debt, and still fewer haye sur
plus funds as the state has. They
must tax-eveu the thriftiest among
them-or starye. The state, while
not needing money, must tax too, that
the counties may raise revenue. If
the Nation will get its candidates
/ pledged to d constitutional amend
ment rendering state and local taxa
tion absolutely independent each OF
the other, then it Will solye the prob
lem that is veXing all of US. But the
remedy Is not i'll the absolute remis-
sion OF state taxation.

y gcnuemae OF Paris (wLo We take
20 be a preacher) writes letter to
the Galveston News pointing out two
things the democraticparty in Texas
must do to avoid losing tie confidence
and support OF the masses: First,
prohibit intoXicants: second, repeal
ot the legislation against the bible
and religious services in the public
schools. Legislative authority is not
competent to make these changes. Ii
ever effected they must be by popular
vote, il the shape OF amendments TO
The constitution. So ii Is not the
democratic lawmakers the gentleman
NJ Paris should educate up 10 duty,
but the people themseIyes-the masses
who do the voting. But democratic
legislature, If ii dared, might provide
. the voters with the means OF making
such amendments.
Mr.. Charles Reed, assistant counsel
FOR Guiteau, ,denounces, in unqualified

jury when political matters were lug
sca in. Dir. Reed repudiates
tLeidea that &. ant, Conkliug, CT any
other man tor that matter should be
responsible Tor the acts Of the assas-
sin. He saws he had 10 idea of SEQ
yIlle's intention TO do such a thing
and regards il a moustrous outrage
upon the gentlemen whose names
haye thus been dragged in. Finally,
Nlr. Reed says had lie anticipated this
vagury Oh SCOville's part lie could
not have been induced to associate
himself with the case.
The baroness Erlanger, wife of the
rich banker, missed attending the
Ring theatcr fire i'll Vienna by If
teen minutes delay of her coachman,
Tor which she scolded him soundly.
Singularly enough a similar delay
saved her life when the Nice theater
was burned last March. The News
relates that a Galveston man missed
the late Spuyten Duyvil accident bv
being two and half minutes too late
for the train. John Kelly missed be-
iug on that train, too, and Mr.. Tilden
Is said to have his own ideas about

template q trip to Europe. but has
never intended TO perpetrate such a
piece of extravaganza. The latest
accounts from Fremont, Ohio, rep
resent Mrs. Hayes absorbed IN

raking up the leaves on his lawn, and
the younger children cultivating their
minds at school.

VAST .GERRYNANDEBING

The congressional district il we re-

by the thirteenth legislature,

a democratic majority, but we do not
think the majority was large enough,
Oh strict party vote, to pass a meas

style in It's conformation, but We are
not prepared to accept the theory that
it WAS 30 formed FOR the purpose Of
defeating Jones or any other mau not
