Democratic vs.. Republican Ralc
I'm Florida.

During the last four years of Radical
rule IN Florida the average assessed val
uation of property for purposes of taxa
ton was trifle below thirty-One million
dollars, on which they assessed $l,64l,-
347.23 for State taxes, i'll addition to
which, during their rule OF eight years,
they added annually to the State debt
$l4l, 5ss.47, aggregating for the four
years All increase of $500, s5s.ss in the
States debt.
On an average valuation of more than
forty eight million dollars, the Democrats
assessed during the last four years ST.
lS7,596.29.
Difference III favor of four years of
Democratic rule in Florida, as compared
with four years of Radical rule, 81 ,02O,-
lO4.s2.
This amount is clear saving to the
tax payers of Florida.
The Democrats have done more than
this since they assumed control of the
State government. They have made an
actual reduction of $5l6,O9 "a in the
State debt, and expended 500, l55.O7 more
for schools than did the Radicals.
During the four. years of Democratic
administration of affairs the people of
Florida were assessed for State take,
1888, $50. 81 less than during the four years

The Radicals increased the State debt
$l,l32, 707.79 liz eight years, while under
Democratic government the actual re1ssc-
ton of the States debt has been 1885,

To sum up: four years of Radical rule
cost the people of Florida 81, 2O7, 7Ol.1l,
while four years under the Democrats
cost them only 81, 49,, 5000, or $780,
lO4.82 less than under the Radicals, to
say nothing of the reduction of the State
debt by the Democrats.
With these facts and figures before
them, will intelligent taxpayers lend
their influence or give their votes to the
movement to turn the government Of
Florida over to plunderers and robbers
again? Certainly not

For the purpose of contrasting the Democratic
with the Republican rate Of taxation, we take
the last year under their respective administrA-
tons.
In 1876 the eighth and last year Of Radical
rule in Florida, (the rate Of taxation was Tie
same during the four last years of Radical ule,)
the ASSESSED valuation Of property was $29,9l1.-
1853 which they assessed State taxes TO the
amount of $3.50, 67S 80.
For 1884, the eighth year Of Democratic rule,
tre valuation (estimsted SAME as 1889 Is 155,-
2493ll, nearly double what it was in 1875 under
Republicans, and yet, at the Democratic rate of
taxation the amount levied for State taxes will
be $24? O95 26, or $l35. 5S3 IL lexs than the R4d
Gals levied ON little more than half the yalua
ton OF property.

tween the cost OF running the State government

These figures are from the official tax
returns Of his county, and he knows them
to be correct - knows what amounts of
taxes he has paid in the years given
knows that the reduction is real when he
pays out lesser amount instead of q
greater, aud he can read his tax receipts
proving it. But he also knows that few
of those who he is endeavoring to mis-
lead pay taxes and have tax receipts to
refer to. Prior to 1881 he had no prop
erty to be assessed, (only paid poll tax on
that head which has got him into his
present trouble) but if he had been a
property owner and paid l24 mills under
Stearns he would see much greater diff
ference between his 1875 receipt and that
of 1884 at mills, than is shown above.
AS he is assessed for only 81, POO it will
be understood that the salary of Gov
ernor is certainly an object worth work
ing for by this political adventurer, who
has apparently failed to make money by
his profession, or his crooked Neso Err
newspaper. The people don't propose to
put him on the pay roll because I've can't
make a living otherwise.

We have said and repeased that Mr..
Pope, in his malignant warfare upon the
democratic party, endeavos TO mislead
the people BY erroneous st.temeDt% In
his efforts to delude voters, obtain ofice,
destroy democratic supremacy and good
government with it, be has cut loose from
all restraints Of fact and goes about the
country repeating his one speech-that
extraordinary iarrago of misrepresenta-
tions which seem too absurd TO require
contradiction. He seemingly does not
care that he is not believed by intelligent
persons, for he knows he will not be when
he speaks. He does not speak to them,
but to the most ignorant and prejudiced.
His statements in general may be judged
by one in particular-:fdls~s IN uno, falsas
IN omnidus-and we cite specimen un-
truth in argument that no statement which
he makes need be believed merely be-
cause he makes il. He asserts that the
reduction of taxes under the present ad-
ministration is rather apparent than real
that the reduction is not actual, but q
democratic trick to deceive the people.
Now, to show that he cannot himself be-
lieve what he himself says, we submit
the following statement of his, F. w.
POpe's, own tax account:

the returns come in We believe it will be
demonstrated that they prefer good gov

ment and exorbitant taxes. They cannot
be deceived by the false utterances of de-

denim them and their nefarous methods

 Our mines are looking we'll.
 Berrie and Swanlow are working the Iowa Boy. The shaft is down aboSt 30 feet, the vein is twelve inches w1de and assays 90 ounces in silver and about two ounces in gold.
 Wm. Davis Calamity BilD has just finished the assessment work on several mines owned by Dr, Burdick and himself.
 Jas. NJ. Cummins, foreman of the mines owned by L.. A. Sanderson and R. Arnold, and of which Yer Mehr is superintendent, has just finished the Assessment work on the Garfield, Silent and Virginia mines. The Burke belonging to the same parties has a shaft 60 feet deep and is look ing we'll. The pay streak is eight to ten inches wide and assays 60 ozs. silver and about two ounces gold. They will sink the shaft to 100 feet aud then run level. Ore is being shipped from this mine,
 Joe Upsher, Tom Rumsy, Fred Bauer and Andrew Henderson are working on the Burke mine.
 H. c. Thompson and John Pop ham are working on their mine and are down no feet. It is looking we'll and the parties are pleased with the prospect. A level will be started in a few days.
 Dawson, Dives and several others are prospecting claims with a very fattering outlook, All are in good spirits and confidently predict that this will be one of the leading camps in the county.
 We would be pleased to have you come out and see what we are doing. We all read your valuable paper, and think trip out to this section would we'll repay you. Will keep you posted from time to time what IS going on here.

Mrs, General Sherman and her daughter Rachel had narrow escape from death at St. Louis last week. They had been attending St. Xavier Church, corner of Ninth street and Lucas avenue, and had just seated themselves in their buggy to go home when the horses became frightened and dashed madly up Lucas avenue until reaching Eleventh street, where they came in collision with lamp post and an awning. The ladies were taken from the wreck uninjured, but badly shocked and frightened. One of the horses had its back broken and was shot.

Astronomers report the Pons Brooks comet now visible to the naked eye, locating it in the north west shortly after sunset, nearly in a line with the two brightest stars in that quarter, one, the brightest, near the horizon and the other nearly as high over it as the pole star, which is off considerable distance to the right. This comit was discovered and its orbit described in 1912 by Pons, and on its return this year was first noticed by Mir. Brooks, hence its name, It is expected to be brightest about the middle of January.

So far as we have been able to learn only two copies of Hamilton's Resources of Arizona" have found their way to Efohave county, one of which IS in our possession and the other belongs to L, S. Welton. There are two very good reasons for thls, one of which is that the people of Mohaye county have no use for the book and the other is that the author is probably ashamed to send any here.
