Albany, Dec. 18th, 1883.

The taxable property in Linn county as
returned by the assessor is one million DOL
lars more than the taxable property OF
Marion county as returned by the assessor
in that county. Every one conversant with
the two counties knows that The taxable
property of Marion county at par value
exceeds that of Linn at par value by at least
one million dollars. Here is ~greyious
wrong and the coming legislature would dc
we'll to expend all their aggregated wisdom
is righting this wrong. If no relief is
given,the people of Linn will feel 1t theiI
duty to insist ontheir assessor making his
assessment low enough to correspond will
! other counties. This Is self-defence.

Of the platform.
The Democratic party of Pennsylvania, by its

clsres that revision OF the tariff laws Is neces.
sary, with . view to their simplincstion, the
correction Of their incongruitie> and inequali-
ties tie regulation Of duties in such manner
- will put America industry on nrm and
permanent basis, covering the difference be-

people from useless and onerous taxes and from
extortion BY trusts and mon0pclies controlling
the prices Of the common necessaries Of life.
That to this end. and that labor may be the
more ehectually protected In the enjoyments OF
its earnings and in steadiness and continuity Of
employment. We give our most hearty and i'm
partial Endorsement to the recommendations Of
President Cleveland's last message to Con-
gress, and as In line with the principles laid
down in that message We commend to Congress
the prompt adoption Of the revenue bill re-
ported from the Committee Of Ways and Means.
and urge the Democratic representatives in Con-
gress from this State to give 1t their earnest

KANSAS CRY, Mo-, May 26-The condi-
ton and prospects Of the crops along the
line Of the Kansas City, Fort Scott 4 Gulf
In by the various station agents and make
q very satisfactory showing. The reports
are to the effect that the acreage Of corn in
the section through which the road
passes is considerably in excess Of
last year, and although in some
localities the lateness Of spring and
cold rains have had . retarding
effect yet the general outlook Is excellent.
The reports concerning wheat are not on
the whole 50 encouraging, but this section
10 not regarded as wheat country, corn
being the principal product along almost
the entire line Of the road. In many places
wheat and oats have both suffered from
the chinch bugs, although their devasta-
tons have been much less serious than
would have been the case had they
not been kept down by heavy rains. The
average yield Of corn will probably be
far larger than last year. In compiling, tho
following series Of questions were sent to
each station agent: L What Is the esti-
mated average Of the outlook Of the wheat
crop in your vicinity! 2. How has the sea
son been as regards rainfall and other in
fuencesl 8. Give prospects for corn and
other crops, also feeling among farmers in

Walker, Of Missouri, from the Committee

adverse to the bill extending the time dur

arrears Of pensions. The report states
that it will require $50 OOo, GOO to carry out
the provisions OF the bill. Mr.. Walker says
that the bill, if passed, will not only dis
pose Of the surplus. but will add several
hundred millions to tbs burdens Of nation
already weighed down by taxation. In
conclusion he said that the American peo-
pie have not only been fair and just to the
ex-soldiers, but have enacted pe nsion laws
with liberality and generosity unparal

try on earth. In behalf Of the tax-paying
