were filled, and many were standing up in
the roadway in front of the miniature
lake. So vast is the attendance
of out-of-tcwn people at these per-
formances that the management has decided
to extend the spectacle into next week. Last
evening the old soldiers were gaddened by
the performances of drum corps on the
stage playing the old-time war melodies, and
and when the whirling fuses on the bombs
sped through the air visions of many mid
night cannonade was brought to mind, and
the old cheer went un from hundreds of
threats. There was also thirty-fo piece
representing the G. A. r. badge in red, white,
blue and gold that called for an euthusias-
tic reception. Two heroic figures in blue
and gray were also represented with clasped
hands, supposedly across the bloody chasm,
that was the feature of the exhibition. The
display certainly rivaled any of its predeces-
sors the three separate fountains in the lake,
the squlrming water serpents and the burst
ing bombs overhead almost completely fill
ing the air. Tonight the Scandinavian sing
ers will sing upon the stage, and a huge
representation in colored fire of the Swedish
and Norwegian flags will be set off, besides
other pieces representing scenes in the Old
NorthIand, An immense attendance is ex-

The ST. Paul enumeration was q matter

prominence in st. Paul. Among the number
were Charles D. Gilfllan, P. H. Kelly, Gen.

President johnson moved as a substitute
that the city engineer be directed to pay the

should be made IN the shape OF an increase

all men. good and poor, need not be paid the

the matter stands now as it did before. The

you may remedy any defects in the
laws; but the mann purpose is to have
you consider the so-called double-tax
feature of it, If such feature exists.
1t frequently appears that certain
species of property are doubly taxed,
when in fact it Is not true. Property
may he justly taxed nd valorem, and
there may be a privilege predicated
upon this property from which ex-
traordinary profits are made, and the
State may, with propriety and fair
ness, exnct n tax for such extraOrdi-
nary privileges.
at may require "A nice discrimina-
ton sometimes to determine whether
certain property falls within this
meaning, and doubtless out of this
has arisen many of the complaints of
hardship under the operation of the
present law. 1t is Of prime impOr-
lance that the law should be definite
in its terms, so that it may be easily
understood and construed: and as
nearly equally applied as possible, be
cause there are many material inter
ests affected by it. The specific point
of complaint is this; That corpora
tions are taxed upon the plant itself
aud upon the stock predicsted upon
it. Ii Is for yuu 10 determine wheth.

The Governors Message.

The message of Gov. Taylor to the
extra session of the Legislature was
quite a lengthy document for such an
occasion. We give below the most
important item Of 1t, that relating to
the question of taxation:
''''A perfect system ofequal taxation
is a problem which has never been
solved. Human wisdom has been
able only to approximate it, and
when it becomes apparent that our
scheme of assessments has glaring
inequalities il becomes your duty un-
der the Constitution to cure them, as
far us possible. The laws should be
so constructed AS to compel every in.
terest In the State to bear its proper
tiOnate share of the burden of taxa
tiOn. 1t is claimed that under the
present law, certain interests are sub.
iected to double taxation. This, il
true, is manifestly unjust. If any
class Of propertyis inadequately taxed
It's taxable valuation should he In.
creased. Double nd valOrem taxation
is not only %intOlpable, but unconsti'
iu'i"nal. This subject is purposely
opened in its widest scope, 81 that

If West Tennessee must have the
Governor, we don't see any good e a
son why Col. Tom Neal, ofthe Overs.
burg Gazette, shouldn't be the man.
The above first appeared in as edi-
torial paragraph in the STANDARD
several weeks ago, and is now going
the rounds of the state press credited
to the Murfreesboro News. Whether
this is due to an error on the part of
the first paper clipping it, or was
stolen by the News and used without
credit, we do not know, but we are
rather inclined to think the latter
was the case. There are several pa
pers in the State whose editorial COL
umns ire made up chiefly o~fstealings
from their exchanges. OF course we
would like for our exchanges to al
ways extend us the courtesy ofprOper
credit for what they use out Of our
editorial columns, but if through
poverty Of original ideas their own
editorial matter would be too mea.
gre to face their readers with, they
are welcome to help themselves to
the STANDARDS dish of editorial,
without money, without price, and
without credit. We are nothing il
not charitable. But to revert to the
previous question, we are heartily in
favor of Col. Tom Neal for Governor.
No nan in the State would fill the
office with more dignity and ability,
He Is a man in whom his party and
people Tai repose the utmost conf.
dence, and there is certainly not
another man in the State to whom
the press could give a more enthus'
iastic support.

REGARDING our query as to what
effect the dissolution of James coun-
ty and restoration Of its territory to
the original counties would have up
on the coming Congressional election,
the White County Herald remarks
"Won't somebody who knows
please relieve Bro. Reams' anxiety in
this matter? 1t would never do to
make this change if the pet gerry
wandered majority is to be lessened.
There was too much good sound
'heeling' done in that little job to
afford to mar its symmetry now by
such trivial matters as creating or
dissolving a county or two"
People who live in glass houses
should not throw stones" is an oft
quoted and very wise maxim. The
Herald should look up the record Of
its party on the gerrymander bust
ness in New York, Ohio, and other
states, before attempting to grow
facetiOus or sarcastic over similar self
protection on the part of the Demo.

l"THE Gossiper" had q column of
very sensible talk in Wednesdays
American regarding the condition of
our State Capitol building. This
grand pile, which cost the State more
than a million of dollars, is rapidly
falling into ruin for want of a few
thousand dollars worth of repairs to
check the ravages of time. The build
ing Is in a most deplorable sanitary
condition, and every State official and
member of the General Assembly,
and every individual who enters its
walls, courts disease, and possibly
death. 1t will cost a good many
thousand dollars more to repair the
damage now than it would have done
several years ago, and IL the destruc-
tion goes on much longer at the rap
idly increasing rate, the repairs then
needed will be equivalent to a new
building. The extra session of the
Legislature can do nothing with the
matter, but it should be one of the
very first things attended to by the
next General Assembly.

WE have never known a Tennes-

we can see no reason in the world for
opposing the measure now before the
Legislature to make Mr.. Phelan's

ly correct in every particular, it is
sufficiently 50 to give the children Of
the State a good general idea of the
