Extravagant officials mean higher taxes in
some way or other. If not in higher rates, in
higher rate of valuation, as now practically
proposed by the Democratic assessor. A bet
ter way than to increase the burden of taxa
ton would be to reduce the expenses, but this
does not seem to have found favorin the eyes of
the present officials. The only way to do is to

Survival Of the Fittest.

For some time past thequestion OF purity
in baking powders has formed quite a fea-
ture OF newspaper discussions, and eminent
doctors OF philosophy have given opinions
az to the ingredients which compose many
of the articles sold under that name. The
Investigations have narrowed down to the
limit which awards the Royal Baking Pow
der the palm OF purity, and several of the
most distinguished scientists have testified
to their conviction that no extraneous or
deleterious matter enters into it's compost.
ton. The Royal Baking Powder Company
have achieved a worldwide reputation for
the success which has marked their prepa-
ration OF cream of tartar for baking pur-
poses. 1t is indisputably shown that they
have eliminated all elements of tartrate OF
lime, alum Or other impurities, and present
to the public a healthful and chemically
pure article. Such widely known chemists
as Henry Morton, E. G. Love, H. A. Mott,
VIM. McMurtrie and others have verified
its superiority over other manufactures,
and testified, through practical experience,
to it's excellence. 1t ia well for families to
observe the fact that it costs more to
manufacture the Royal Baking Powder
than any other, but it is, as shown by
chemical analysis, the one absolutely

LEAD the past week has more than 'us''-
fed all the predictions that We nav r.
Gently made in it's favor. Buyers through
out the country have evidently become
convinced that low water mark has not
been reached, but passed, and on attemp'
ing to buy large block they found CONSIDER
BILE scarcity and the necessity OF paying
higher prices. The sales of the week aggre.
gath very nearly 1000 tons. and the lead
has been distributed to all the consumers
large and small, east and west, as Common
| and C~orroding and for spot and far future.
The price at. St., Louis improved slowly
from $4.57K to s4.62EE;: at Chicago they
advanced from $4.65 to $40, while at
New York (where nearly 1000 tons were
sold) the price gradually strengthened
to 81 30, with fual sales at $4.9o
for far future delivery. The English
market has meanwhile also improved in
values and soft Spanish at London ran
from f13 up to f13, 7s. 3d., and Corrod-
ing marks are cabled firm at f13, los.

SILVER has taken another header and
Owed down a shade below all previous
records. There seems to be little doubt
but that this decline is caused as much by
the state OF trade OF India as by the over
supply OF the article itself. In this con.
nection an item from the Bombay Gazette
is of interest and reads asfollows: Eve do
not mean to say that the decline in ex-
change is entirely without effect on the
rupee prices of produce. but in seeds and
wheat certainly, and to some slight extent
also in cotton. sellers have contracted in
advance so far in excess OF their powers to
