ABLE TO WALK ALONE.

As every patriotic citizen remains in the
constantly increasing pride OF our people in
American citizenship and in the glory OF our
national achievements and progress, tenti-
ment prevails that the leading strings useful
to a nation IN it's infancy may well be TO a
great extent discarded in the present stage
OF American ingenuity, courage and fearless
self-reliance, ami for the privilege Of iudulg-
ing this sentiment with true American en-
thusiasm our citizens are quite wiling to
forego IN idle surDln- IN the public Treasury

WAS imposed by the grievous burden willingly
borne. at time when the government needed
millions to maintain by war the safety and
integrity OF the Union.
1t has been the policy OF the government to
collect the principal part OF its revenues by a
tax upon imports, and no change IN this
policy Is desirable. But the present condition
Of AFFAIRS conhtrains our people TO demand
that by revision q our revenue laws the
receipts OF the government shall be reduced
to the necessary expense OF its economical
administration, and this demand should be

A REMEDY SUGGESTED.

In default OF the adoption by the Congress OF

of considerable embarrassment To the three

guaranteed by treaties. the weakness of the

The great number of suits now pending in
the United states Courts for the southern
district of New York growing out of the coll
lection OF customs revenue AT the port OF New
York, and the number OF suCN suits that are
almost daily instituted, are certainly worthy
the attention of Congress. The legal cOntro-
yersies based upon conflicting views byimport-
ers aud the collector rs to the Interpretation
OF our present complex and indefinite revenue
laws might be largely Obyiated by an amend
ment OF those laws. but pending such amend
ment the present Condition OF this litigation
should be relieved. There are now pending
about 500 of these suits. More than !, 100

months ana many OF the others have been &C

BIG TIMBER LAND STEAL,
Prominent Residents of Califorpfs Indjct
ed for Subornstton of Perjury

fromfnent Residents of Californfa Indict-
ed Tor subornsttOn of Perjury.
The United States grand Jury at
san francisco has found indictments
against eight prominent citizens of the
state for subornation of perjury in the
case OF fraudulent entries OF redwood
timber land in Humboldt County. The
names OF three are Joseph Russ, Da-
vld Evans, Charles II. King, who col
lectively represent $5, 100000 capital.
The Land Department at Washington
had reason to suspect irregularities in
the entry Of these lands and sent out
Special Agent B. f. Bergen, Of the IN
terror Department, to investigate.
The result shows that the men in
dlcted were all members oil
the California Redwood Company,
the capital for which was mainly
subscribed in Scotland. The indicted
parties procured 600 American citi-
zens to take up 160 acres OF land each,
for which each received $50. The en-.
tries were in all cases immediately con-
veved to David Evans, one of the in.
dlcted parties. The California Red
wood Company afterward sent an
agent to Scotland to form q syndicate
and sell the Glands. Thesyndicate paid
the California Redwood Company 500
per acre for the land, which, as shown,
the latter had fraudulently purchased
from the government for 50 so per
acre. Suit will be instituted by the
government to set aside all these en-
tries as well as the patents which have
already been issued. The land EN-.
braces $4,000 acres OF the best red.
wood timber land on the coast.

An Old World Phenomenon.

LONDON Cor. New Ork sun-
Among English social gatherings a
first night at a theater runs second to
none. People stream there, the ma
iority to see and be seen, the minority
to listen and to be heard. The former
belong to the literary world, the the
atrical denomination, and the upper
crust phalanx; the latter to a posse OF
medical and other students, with q
dash OF Bohemian dilettante. Both
sets provide almost equal entertain
ment, and not unfrequently arouse
more interest and amusement than
the play itself. Very often the Prince
OF Wales adorns the meeting with his
royal and cheering person. Then you
witness q phenomenon. During the
best part OF the evening it seems as
though a strong wind, or some other
potential factor, was forcing the occu-
pants of stalls and boxes to turn their
heads sideways, and most awkwardy
as il they were intent on conjecturin
the presumptive heirs most secre
thoughts. A phenomenon rarely oc
ours alone. So you presently behold
another wonder. Suddenly all those
stage-averted faces will automatically
beam or grin as dolls responding to q
spring. This second miracle, ho yever,
is accountable, and is worked Out in
this way: The prince, who has fol
lowed the play, has grinned or beamed
at something init, and that is all. The
leading banker in his box, the leading
aristocrat in his mumps, the leading
commoner in his crest, the leading
critic in his transcendency, the leading
actress at her best, the leading masher
in bis brilliancy, the leading writer
OF plays IN his worst humor, the lead
ing beauty in her irresistibleness, the
leading rhapsodist III his biiouty, the
leading solicitor in his Israelitish
nicely, the leading crazer in his piebald
hair, all known and unknown butter
men, haberd ashers, British metrons
and courtesans grin and beam. Little
wonder that the medical and other
students and the Bohemian dilettante
feel called upon to furnish the critical
element, and do it with unbiased effu-
siVenp9g
