The New York Sun of May Z, 1885,
passes its opinion OH Gen. Grant as a
writer in the following terms: every.
body read with interest the letter
from General Graht to his publishers
which appeared in the newspapers
yesterday, contradicting report that
his new book has really been writer.
by General B;ldeau. This contradic.
ton seems to us unnecessary. General
Grant has the ability to write u pecu.
liarly compact, distinct, picturesque
and telling English style. Here and
there, it may be, u careful critic might
he able to suggest some trifling i'm.
provement in phrseology or in con.
struction; but, generally speaking, the
compositions of the General are
models, and the attempt to improve
them would only he injurious. lie
knows what lie wants to say. and he
has the faculty Of saying it in All un.
and mncquivoc;ll manner that
is agreeable and instructive to those
who read. I

dollars APIECE. And what for do you ask !?
Why simply to 60 q junketing last Janu-
ary to Bismark TO meet other junketing
commissioners. And for what purpose
did these junketten meet there? Echo
answers what! And do you poor dumb
driven voters ask by what law did those
trusted officers appropriate that money
to themselves? Why by the law that the
strong shall rule the weak /; by the law
that the big fish shall eat the little ones:
by the law of harmony" An, yes
indeed. had some such man as j. q.
Webb then been on the board there
would have been discord instead of thar
inony," dissent instead of unanimity,
and we here dare TO assert that there is
no law, written or unwritten, no justice,
real or imaginary, that will warrant such
use of the public funds of this county.
Deny it if you can, and support the de-
NAL by the law. This is only one in
stance. Should you want others TASK

seek and they shall find.

1t is almost MS good as demonstrated
that the price of wheat must continue
to rise to a point much higher than it is
at present. Many good judges of the
situation claiming that it will certainly
reach II dollar bushel before May.
Should large portion of the wheat be
fastened upon the market, the price
may be temporarily depressed, but
the depression can only be temporary.
The advice therefore that comes from
every quarter not interested in wheat
buying, to hold for better prices should
be followed as far as possible. The
most conservative in giving advice
now say,-hold your wheat.

Here is q good story that may have
, useful lesson for some of the readers of
the PIONEER EXPIRES. It is from the
Lewiston (Me.) Journal:
"Parties lately returned to Kansas City
from Maine and the sea coast, who at
tended the Grand Army reunion, tell to
folks there good one of Maj. Wiseman,
Of Lawrence, whom every one in the
state knows to be good business man.
When his party was passing through
Vermont on their way to Portland, Maj.
Wiseman was struck by the bare, ,neager
look of the farms, their smallness and
the outward appearance of poverty. He
remarked many times upon the stunted
appearance of everything, and regarded
the little hillsdale or valley homes as the
abodes of hard living, for which pure air
would hardly compensate. His COM
PARSONS were always with Kansas farms,
Kansas views and Kansas wealth. When
the train slowed up at little station fol
the engine to take water, Maj. Wisemar
got up to stretch his cramped legs. and
walking down the platform he met 6

appearance indicated close economy
Our major Intercepted him with UNI
usually patronlzing blandness:
"My friend, do you live here?"
IL do"
"Do you own farm here?"
"Yes."
"Do you raise enough to eat?" per
sisted the major.
ooh, yes, we manage to get enough
Don't some of your people starve?'
said our Kansas friend; 81 shouldn'
think you raise enough to keep body ant
soul together. You should move Il
Kansas. where we raise eighty bushels o
corn to the acre and sixty bushels o
wheat. That is the place to live"
The native" did not seem struck will
wonder, but quietly remarked, "W,

"Do you make anything?" then asket

years to get MORTGAGES on two large farm
in Kansas" replied the Vermonter.
For moment Maj. Wiseman was stag
gered, but standing by the grasshoppe
state, he returned to the charge.
"Why, We waste more wheat and corr
in Kansas than you can raise on you
farms here. Our farmers throw ava,
more than your entire crops amount to.

vs.. Louisville and Nashville Rail
road, Defendant in Error-Escambia
County.
MCWHORTER, G. J.
I. Neither the tax collector Of a city
or the tax assessor of a county in which
said city is situated, is a necessary party
to a petition, filed against said city, un-
der section 4, chapter 151 Laws Of Flor
ida, by a person owning property there
in, the only prayer of the petition being
that an assessment of said property by
said city for taxation be declared unlaw-
ful.
.. Neither section %, chapter 3,210,
nor section %, chapter 3,413, Laws Of
Florida, authorize the board Of county
commissioners to raise or lower the val
uation of property of railroad company
assessed by the comptroller Of the State
under section As of each Of the above
acts.
3. Section 4G, chapter 3, ,219, and sec
ton 4G, chapter 3,413, Laws Of Florida,
charge the comptroller of the state with
the duty of assessing the total number
of miles and value of any railroad in this
state the line of which runs through two
or more counties or through a county
and incorporated city or town, and ap-
portioning the value of said road in each
county, incorporated city or town, and
the proportionate value of the loComo-
tives, engines, passenger, freight plat
form, construction and other cars and
appurtenances, and withdraws from the
local assessors of the said towns and
cities, through which the said road runs,
the power to assess the same under the
general power granted to municipal cor
poIations to assess and tax all real and
personal property within their limits.
4. All other property Of a railroad
company within the limits Of an incor-
porated city or town, not required by
section 46 of each of said acts, to be as
sessed by the comptroller, can be law
fully assessed by the tax assessor of said
city or town in the manner prescribed in
chapter 3, An, avs Of Florida.
5. On petition filed, under section
4, chapter 151, to declare an assessment
unlawful, it is error to declare the whole
assessment to be unlawful, where the il
legal items can be separated from the as
sessment list without imparing or affect
ing these parts Of the same which are
