CONCERNING rAxATlon.

In communication to the Argus of April
q Mr.. G. Morgan of Fryeburg said:
Statistics show the bonded debtof the cities
and towns Of Maine to be 500 per capita, being
the highest (saye one) OF any other State in the
Union.
The PRESS characterized this statement as
loose talk and showed that the total bonded
debt of the cities and towns OF Maine was
only about $27 per capita. In the Argus of
yesterday Mr.. g. Morgan appeared again
with this explanation;
The "loese TALK in my article in the Argus of
the 21st, as charged by the PRESS consists in a
slight omission. / should have stated the debt to
be &l00.22 per capita in cities and towns in
MY statistics are taken from standard work by
well known publisher, and dated 1886. and 50
far as know is as worthy of credence ais those
given by the PRESS. But the omission is of tri-
fling import, since it did not materially affect the
subject presented by me.
"Slight omission" is good. Having stated
that each man, woman and child in the
State of Maine was weighted with public
debt of 500 and over, he now explains that
what he meant to say was that every man,
woman and child in places of over 1900 in
habitants is under such burden, and the
difference between the two statements is in
his opinion trivial. Perhaps Mr.. Morgan
doeshot know that there are only seven in
corporated places in Maine with popu-
lation of 1900, viz: Auburn, Lewiston,
Portland, Rockland, Bangor, Bath and
Biddeford, and that the total population of
these places is only 107,4 28, or but one
sixth OF the total population of the State.
Perhaps with these facts before him Mr..
Morgan will be able to perceive that there is
very great difference between statement
tnat every man, woman and child in the
state Is under public debt of 800, and the
statement that such is the case with every
man, woman and child in places of 1900 pop
ulatlon or over. Mr.. Morgan wants to know
II the PREss 'favors the longer continuance
OF the law upon the statute books of Maine
which places tax upon. bonds and other
evidences of debt,whether issued bv indiv;d.
uals or corporations, the inevitable result of
which is to take from labor large share of its
just dues and give it to capital The Press
does not favor any law whose 'inevtable
result is such as that. But we are inclined
to think If any move were made to relieve
bonds and other evidences of debt from all
taxation, the first to cry out against it would
be this very labor which Mr.. Morgan says is
deprived of large share of its just dues by
the taxation of bonds and other evidences of
debt. One of the claims of the Greenback-
ers, who always professed to represent
the laboring man, was that the exemption of
the National bonds frsm taxation was an
injustice to him.

The news that comes from Greece is so
contradictory that it is impossible to form
an intelligent opinion of the situation there.
That Greece wants to fight is evident, but
that she will have the courage to ignore the
command Of the powers to keep the peace is
doubtful. The real attitude of Russia, for
Russia's professions are frequently different
from her actual wishes and intentions, will
undoubtedly have great weight with the lit
tie kingdom. There is ground for the suspi-
cion that the Gear would like to see a con-
flict between Greece and Turkey to furnish
pretext for moving the immense army he
has assembled in Southern Russia into the
Sick Mans territory. This army is an ele-
plant on his hands. He dares not disband
1t for fear that the half savage men that
compose it turned loose in his dominions,
would stir up internecine strife and give
Nihilism fresh impetus. What he wants
is something for it to do. A war between
Greece and Turkey would inevitably furnish
an excuse for the Cars taking a hand, and
this army of the South would then find en-
ployment. A conference of Russian nota-
bles has recently been held at Liyadia, in
which the Gar participated, and which is
supposed to have discussed the policy of
Russia as regards the quarrel between Greece
and Turkey. The result of that conference
is likely to have great weight in determining
the attitude of Greece

The bill which the labor committee will re-
port as substitute for the Blair education
al bill is less meritorious measure than the
one 1t supersedes. 1t proposes to divide the
proceeds of the public lands for the next ten
years among the states upon the basis of the
school population, and not of illiteracy, as is
the plan of the Blair bill. 1t is limited that
the bill is offered really as the readiest way
of defeating the Blair bill, for it is absolute
ly certain that the Senate will never ac-
cept it.
A band of strikers have taken forcible pos
session of the Missouri Pacific yards at

the whole force of the commonwealth if
needed, to restore the property to its owners.
The knights of Labor ought, for their own

affair. Indeed, they ought to go further and
see that the men who have committed these
outrages, ifthey are members of their organi-
cation, are dismissed from it in disgrace.
