the police and carried to the hospital.
One arrest was made.

Tie AnETH III THE HELM.

II is not often that THE TRIBUNE turns to
jefferson Davis for confirmation Of its state
ments, but if the subject happens to be one upon
which Mr.. Davis is an expert, and there Is rea-
son TO believe he is telling the truth, we do not
see why he should not make good witness.
The TRIBUNE was much bcrated last Deccm-
Der because, when Speaker Carlisle announced
his committees. il was led to remark that the
South was again in the saddle. The Demo-
cratic newspapers ut once declared, first that 1t
was not the South, but the North, that was in
tbc saddle; second that the South WAS in the
saddle. perhaps, but that it had been almost rs
much in the saddle in Republican Congresses
rs in this; third, that there wasn't any saddle
ANYHOW. THIS ought to have been conclusive
but thefact that the South had seven out OF the
ten first class chairmanships, and eleven out OF
the fourteen soc0ndcass chairmanshlpS, be-
sides the Speaker ana practical control OF al
most tall committees did seem to stand III an
obstinate sort of way between the premises and
the conclusion.
Mr. Davis does not agree with the Democratic
newspapers, or rather he is more honest and
says what he really thinks. lie admits that
there is a saddle, and thinks that the South Is
either in it already or sure to be there soon lie

repcatcdly demonstrated Ly the Tax Commits

uroportionatcly several times higher than the
average elsewhere in the State. The result Is
that Ncw-Yolk City is called upon to pay much
more than it lust share of the state taxes. Any
increase in the rate of assessment here means a
still further addition to the city's undue proper
