began life as clerk in the Middletown Bank,
where be rose to the position of Cashier. He
learned railroading by engaging in the trans.
portation Of troops and supplies. and in 1866
became President Of the Northern Central
Railroad, now a part Of the Pennsylvania
Central. President Grant made him Secre
tary Of War, May %, 1876 and he served till

did 30. The young " Boss " was reelected

matter of history that if the other third
termers Of that committee had sustained his
position at the Chicago Convention, when he
clsimed that by precedent he had the right
of naming the temporary Chairman, Grant
would have been nominated instead of Gar
field.
! There have been repeated unsuccessful re-
volts against the Cameron rule in Pennsyl-

credited with corruption of the public serv-

RAILROAD TAXATION. State Board
OF Equalization has reduced the assessment
on the Southern Pacific Railroad from
SIG, to $40, 500, being a reduction Of
about 40 per cent. This is concession on
the part of the Board that the assessment
heretofore has been too high, for no one
will contend that the railroad has less
value this year than last The State Board
OF Equalization, In excusing itself for the
high assessment of the two preceding
years, admits that when it wrote il #
knew it was 30 per cent in access of the
rate at which other property was taxed
hut says it intended to obviate this dis.
elimination by raising all other property 40
per cent. Whether this explanation he
valid or not, and it seems to have SON q
plausibility, yet the fact is now patent that
the proposition of the railroad company 70
pay 60 per cent. of the tax was fair one.
and ought to be accepted. We have ey.
amined the answers made by the railroad
company, and we find in them an averment
that the assessment was made under rule
which would cause the discrimination
above noted. By the decisions of the Su.
preme Court of the United States it is
probable that this discrimination inval-
ida.es the whole tax but whether that be
30 or not, it ia certain that, upon the testi
mony which the Board itself will be bound
to give In these cases, no more than GO per
cent. can ever be recovered in them. San

made to the Project to transfer the custody
of these arms to a committee of citizens.
On the refusal OF the Project an attack was

defended by the handful of men within.
The Sixth Battalion of the Columbian
