The proposed Senate tariff bill Is thus
described by Democratic Senator who
ought to know something about it:
''The Republicans intend to present a
bill which viii provide for reduction OF
the revenues to the amount of about $40, /.
600, 600. In the first place they propose to
make reduction in the duty on sugar to
the amount of $25, 600, 900; tin plate So
600, OlO; lower grades of wool, $4,000, OOO,
and on tobacco and whisky used in the
arts, $50, 9OO, 900. They do not propose to
add to the free List, nor antagonize any OF
the big industries IL New England and the
west. In other words, they hope to win
over 20 their eide the manufacturers IN
their sections, and thereby obtain ample
contributions to assist in greasiDg the cam
psigu machinery. They slso promise to
present hill that will corset many Of the
inequalities existing in the present tariff
schedule They do not" added the Sena-
tor, "pay any attention to the charges OF
inconsistency, their object being to try and
regain control Of the Government, regard
less of the sacrifices they may be called
upon 10 make"
The Senators are playing game OF sharp
practice IN a particularly dull manner.
qualification! Heavens! There is no
longer such q word in the Republican
vocabulary. They solemnly pledge them
selves in 1884 at Chicago to reduce the
tariff. Then they pack up and 60 to
Washington and bitterly aniagonize q
tariff reduction measure. They solemnly
swear in Chicago in 1888 that they tcOnt
reduce the tariff but raise it, and then
peck right off to Washington and go to re-
ducing it! If the Republican party were
led, and its platforms written by lot of
giddy young girls, instead of old, gray
haired men, it could not be whit more
tickle OF incOnstant, CT more obligious Of
the gravity Of the situation, or the sacred
ness Of pledges made to the people.

SAYS the Chicago TfibGRe. the great Re-
publican, anti Chicsge-plattorm organ Of
the west: Senator PLUMB and those of his
colleagues from the prairie States who are
advocating the abolition or reduction Of
the tariff on lumber and the incorporation
OF a provision to that effect in the Senate
Tariff bill have the logic Of facts on their
side. They can give good reasons why
lumber should be placed on the free list
and can easily refute the arguments in
favor of maintaining the high tax urged
by the lumber barons. They can point
ont with Mr.. BLAINE, when protesting
against the psopOsitiOn to tax lumber In
the House of Representatives, that

THE EQUALIZATION LAW.

The act passed by the recent
Legislature for e%quallziug assess
ments, divides the State by conn.
ties, into Ave classes, and the lands
Within each class are 10 he divided
into eight classes according to quail
ity and the minimum assessed value
is fixed BY the act for each quality.
The counties OF Covington, Frank
lin, Greene, Hancock, Harrison,
Jackson, Jones, Marion, Perry,
Pike, Simpson, Smith, Tishomingo
and WAYNE, constitute the fifth
class. The act then provides that
the minimum assessment shall be {:
The first quality of lands in class
number five, at eight dollars per
acre, the second quality at six dol
lars per acre, the third quality at
five dallars per acre, the fourth
quality at tour dollars per acre, the
fifth quality at three dollars per
acre, the seventh quality at one dol
lar per acre, the eighth quality at
fifty cents per acre.
1t is made the duty of the Asses
sor of each Of these counties to
classify the lands OF his county,
taking into consideration the im-
provements, proximity to uaviga-
ton, transportation, ETC., when the
law fixes the value. The oath iu
giving in assessments is dispensed
with. 1t is made the duty of the
authorities of incorporated townsto
furnish the Assessor, within ninety
days from the passage of the act,
plats of such towns Or cities, noting
the streets, squares, or blocks, and
lots aud subdivisions of the same,
aud upon their failure to do SO they
are to be fued not less than 800,
or imprisoned not exceeding thirty
days. The assessment under this
act is to be made next year, 1889.
The compensation of the Assessor
is the same. The act goes into eff
feet January /, 1889.
