New Assessment.

From tie Hagerstoaon Maa.
"The State Tax Commissioner has prepar
ed and transmitted to the Legislature bill
for the general assessment of property in
this State.
1t seems to be practically the same sys-
TEN as that of 1877. The work is to be done
by assessors TO be appointed by the Govern
or and subject to revision by board of
Control and Review.
Washington county is to be divided into
four assessment districts, and the salaries of
the assessors will amount to between eight
and nine thousand dollars.
In 1877 it cost Washington county that
sum to ascertain that the basis of taxation
had greatly diminished, and we doubt
whether the distribution Of taxes after the
assessment was any more equitable than
before.
No county in the State is n condition to
stand so heavy an expense at this time.
Farm lands are doubtless lower in price
now than they were in 1877 and we are
satisfied there will be decrease all over the
State. In Southern Maryland the decrease
will be most marked. The result then will
be that either the rate of State taxes will
have to be increased or else a still larger
proportion must fall on Baltimore city.
There nevcr was worse time for a gen.
eral assessment Values are low, people
are Respondent and not able to stand the
increase of taxation which the expense of
the system proposed by the State Tax Com
missioner would impose
1t cannot be denied that taxation at pres
ent is unequal Some means should be de-
vised for equalizing it at smaller cost than
that proposed and without general up
heaval.
Mr.. Stakes bill proposes to make every
man his own assessor under such conditions
AS to make i; probable no under estimation
would be made Some modification of this
system might be made giving the County
Commissioners power TO issue blanks 10 be
| filled and sworn TO without going into a
general re. assessment among farmers and
! the owners Of house and lot. All these
pay their full share now and II any Of them
are paying too much the County Commits
| sioners have as much authority to make re-
| ductions AS the assessors could.
We Should think that some member OF
the Legislature could devise plan To equal
ize taxation at u smaller expense than by
| Mr. WOolford's plan.

a dog on the farm on which Mr. Wallace
Fields resides, near Derwood, and took from
il peice OF fresh beef. Mr.. Fields atten-
ton was called to his, dog which was
about one hundred yards from the dwell
ing, by its piteous howlings and advanced
in that direction Running toward the
house was the dog with the piece OF beef in
his mouth and the eagle apparently riding
on the dogs back and billing his head until
the blood was profusely flowing. The dog
dropped the meat and the eagle seized it,
skimming the earth in its fight. The dog
turned on the eagle again and with another
dog that had come to his assistance recov-
cred the meat. The eagle seemed revenous
in its appetite and attacked the dogs the
second time and secured the meat, taking
flight and alightng in large tree on the
premises. Mr. Fields had loaned his gun
out, and before his return from a neighbor's
with a gun to shoot the eagle. it had taken
its final departure and has not been seen

The Board of Education of Columbus,
Ohio, has come to the conclusion that sex
is not TO he taken into consideration, and
that for equal work teachers, irrespective
of sex, shall receive equal pay.
Twelve years ago Mary F. Allen, who
was then head assistant in the public
schools of Boston. inaugurated systematic
gymnastc training for women and chill
dren, and by so doing opened new occu-
patton for women as instructors in physi-
cal culture. The Womar's Club of Oym-
pia, Wash, has now membership of twen-
ty-eight. IL is proposed to limit the menl-
bership to thirty.
1t was Lamennais who said that "Woman
is not the servant OF man, much less his
slave. She is his companion, his assistant,
bone of bis bone and flesh of his flesh In
pro- ortion as the moral sense becomes de-
veloped among people she increases in
dignity and liberty-in that sort of liberty
which is not exempt from duty and order,
but enfranchisement from all seryile de-
pendence."
Henry Ward Beecher once said: "You
that live long enough will see women vote,
and when you see women voting you VIII
see less lying, less brutality, and more pub
lie spirit, heroiSm and romance in public
affairs"
In an article on the admission of Wyo-
ming as a State, with woman-suffrage as
part of the Constitution, Frank I4eslie's II
Illustrated Newspaper says: "lndeed the
experiment (of granting to women the
right to vote must have been altogether
satisfactory to justify the people in incor-
porating into the Constitution the principle
that no Legislature may deny or abridge
the right to vote on account OF sex any
more than of race, color or previous condi-
ti0n."

One Thing at Time Rule Women Seem
to Have Forgotten.
81 think young women Of the present day
attempt too great a variety of things. One
ing at a time is rule they seem to have
forgotten"
The speaker was a middle-aged woman
who has herself achieved fame in several
widely different lines, and it is therefore
evident that she did not mean that young
women should contine themselves solely to
one pursuit; yet a bystander asked if that
were her meaning.
Indeed mop replied the first speaker,
who, says the Woman's Illustrated World.
was Miss Amelia Il. Edwards, musician,
novelist ana EeyptOlogist Far from that!
mean only that ones time should not be
frlttered away in the attempt to do many
things at the same moment | notice that
the young women of to-day Will devote
perhaps an hour week to art. two
hours to singing, as much more to the
piano, an hour to hearing read 'sllmSy'
paper relative to some episode. or perhaps
even to whole period Of history, passing
over centuries as il they were moments,
and for literature they read a few
more or less intelligent book reviews, or
listen to another slimSy paper from some
one of the many men or women who seek
to make livelihood by preparing dilutions
of history and literature for the benefit Of
those who are too indoent to read and
study for themselves or have undertaken so
many things that they cannot study any
one Of them thoroughly. Two or three
other hours of each week may be devoted
to a language, and more time than all of
these pursuits will unitedly claim, is en-
plOyed by the young women in going from
place to place and In talking iab0ut how
busy they are"
These words of woman like Miss Ed
wards should induce reflection on the part
Of parents, teachers and the young them
selves. 1t is very natural for bright active
young minds to wish to know everything,
to be proficient in every study and accom-
plishment that attracts Them but they
should learn to say no to themselves when
this temptation besets them, or il they can
not do this, their parents and teachers
should do it for them.

A SUGGESTION.
How Many Intelligent Women Can Help
Themselves.

How Many Intelligent Women Can Help
Themselves.
Editor W0mdn'S Column, Morning Call:
There must be something radically wrong
in our social system when so many of our
housewives are bem0aning their fate be-
cause Of inefficient household help, and an
equally large number ere bemoaning their
fate because of nothing for their willing
hands to do.
The question naturally arises, Why do
they not seek the places of the insufficient
workers. and so tighten their burdens and
those of their employees? The answer I'M
mediately comes, They dare not brave pub
lie opinion by accepting what the world
calls mental position.
The world makes nice distinctions as to
what woman may do or must not do if
she would preserve her ''ladyhood."
She may 60 into the Sums of the city,
and as kindergarten teacher take charge
OF Its neglected walls; she is honored as
noble character. Let her 90 into private
home and take charge of its petted darlings;
she is then only a. uurse-girl."
She is treated with all courtesy when, as
a doctor. she enters home TO prescribe for
its inmates. But let her go into the kitchen
of that same house and attempt to dement,
its inmates by cooking palatable, nutritious
fO0d-alaS, she Is then the cook. AND so
on in cases innumerable.
Now, why these distinctions? In every
case she does a necessary work for a conf
pensation, and her time Is at the disposal Of
her employer.
| feel that in great measure they are
due to the fact that for the teacher and the
doctor education is an absolute necessity,
while we assume that II is not so for the
nurse-grl and the cook.
How many miserable cripples owe their
condition to the carelessnesS or ignorance
Of their nurses? How many wretched
dyspeptics are made by eating food pre-
pared by poor cooks? Surely Intelligence
is needed in these departments if in any.
Let US begin reform by advertising for
educated help-say high school graduates.
Girls who are we'll disciplined by years OF
study and who, after a little training IN the
particular work, would be we'll fitted for
their work-who by their refinement and
hOpefulness would bring sunshine and COM
fort into any family.
Let us place a premium upon intelligence
and the stigma attached to Homework will
soon disappear. | feel safe in saying that
after a trial of sucn help we Will never go
back to the services of tie willy John. To
the girls l would say, Be brave enough to
take tho first step i'll this work. You will
win the praises Of your timid sisters and at
the same time add much to your own self
respect, a thing which is impossible if you
seek for the influence of friends or school
directors in order to obtain position.
