AN AILEs,oRY.

On the great sen sails a beautiful
boat, called the city If T., favoring
breezes watt her to her destination.
with sails spread allow and aioft, she
sails over the laughing waves. On
deck, the crew and passengers cheer
each other with merry song and dance,
while they point to each other to
where in the distance, lies the harbor
where they s"nn shall discharge Their
rich cargo and share the reward Oi
their voyage.
by and by. the wind lulls, the sails
flap idly against the sI'ars, no more the
ship gli,les over dancing waves, but
rolls backward and aud forward over
the smOptl, swells. without advancing,
The tide begins to e.b and the ship
gradually moves backward from the
shore. The songs have hustled, in.
stead Of merry dancers, are weary
men sitting and lying round, waiting
with gloomy lrOws for the ship to nd.
vance.

who work 81 much to gain so little,
besides ye row only for yourselves
and not for u.s." but though the
toilers were much dislleartetl, yet
they labored on, held the ship against
the tide, and when by and by, the
tide turned, tho breezes came again,
they hustled around, spread their
sails, and soon the ship arrived ut the
golden lIarbOr for which they lad
striven. but those who had sulkell
came in with the rest, and in after
years, as they sat around the iireside,
they told the tale Of the successful
voyage, but said nouglt, hut that"We

BOARD OF EQUALIZATION

The county commissioners have all,
except Mr.. Arnold, been present, dur.
ing the last two weeks, wrestling with
the assessment rolls and the new rev.
enue law. Under the law the board
must close OH Thursday night. they
having been ten days in session. The
law allowing the subtraction of debt
gives them the most trouble. In one
township the assessor didn't give
the people a chance to give in their
Indebtedness, and the commissioners
sent him back ~ finish his work.
Another case is IN Touring mills: in
two instances, they are listed and AZ.
sessed as they always have been pre-.
viously, III real estate; in two other
cases; the machinery, engine and
boilers are assessed separately as
personal property, and debts are sub.
tracted which brings the mills down
to y pretty low valuation. In another
case. the firm of Brooks Bros, eleva.
tor owners, had Ri elevator assessed
in st. Thomas for 1000 or 5000 dollars;
the town board raised the assessment
to $4,000. Now come Brooks Bros.
through their attorney. J. ii. Bosard.
Of Grand Forks. and claim that they
wish to put a $4,000 note. they owe in
Walsh county, against the elevator in
this county, notwithstanding the fact
tiiat they own four OF five elevators
