Garnet Republican,
A striking illustration of the Unequal.
tiles of assessing property at an agreed
per cent of its real value, is furnished
by comparing the rates as published
for the different counties. In Shawnee
county, for example, personal property
including money, is returned at 500
while in this country we pay for one
hundred cents on the dollar. 1t is to
be hoped that by another year this
matter will be remedied.
WE ARE not managing anybody's
canvass, and do not wish to be regard
ed as intruding; but from the most
disinterested motives wish to suggest
to applicants for post offices that they
make a mistake when they seek to
strengthen their case by outside en-
dorsement. Every member of the
Kansas delegation, we are informed
by one who stands pretty close to
them, declares emphatically that all
such endorsements will prejudice rath-
er than advance the case of the appli-
cant. The patrons of the office are the
ones most interested in its satisfactory
administration, and their endorsement
is the only one that will be of any
weight in the final decision.
