Notice is hereby given that the Tax
Commissioners will be glad to hear
suggestions from taxpayers relative TO
any under or over valuations in the
last tax lists, or any information that
will enable them to make a proper
adjustment Of tax valuations in the
new tax books for future levies.
Owing to the short time the Com
m%issioners had to perform their work
last year, it was impossible to examine
each piece OF property in the city, but
it is now proposed to do that work with
elaboration and justice to all tax
payers.
In cases of written appeal already
made the statements contained there
in will be thoroughly examined, and
in other cases the Board will hear all
persons verbally or by brief written
statements from April 1, to May /,
1890, at their office in the City Hall
every day except Saturday, from 10 a.
m. to 3p. m.
1t is intended to make a complete
REIMBURSEMENT of the tax valuations on
a basis that will meet the approval of
all honest and fair-minded taxpayers.
BY order of the Board,
D. W. LAWRENCE,
Pres.
JAS. E. CONNOLLY,
Clerk.

Tho Deportation Scheme.


Tho st. Louis Republican, in commenting
upon Senator MoRGAS's Congo deportation
scheme, says:
THE unfortunate truth is that the ne
gro wants no future as a negro. lie wants
10 be white, or failing in that 10 be rs
good a. white" This Is the irrepresslhie
conflict MIR. Morgan sees with his poetic
,naginatiOn hut instead Ct being con-
Act il is an utter and irrepresslble iinpos-
slbility"
True. The negro has no race pride. His
highest ambition Is 20 obtrIde himself
upon the white man whom under all cir
cumstanccs he recognizes as infinitely his
superior. The Republic continues:
I'm the mean time white men Will
swarm ali over Africa. and the negro az
race quantity will have nowhere on cart
spot Of ground he can call his own. The
future of Africa is in the lands of white
men. In loss than fifty years white men
will dominate the continent and own every
square mile in it that Is worth owning.
The Negroes master faculty is initiative
ness without originality. He wants TO be
white. because even when he n most
offensive he really admires mOst-almOst
sdolizes-his white model"
True again. Even were Senator Nor
oAS's scheme practicable from the stand
point Of securing sufficient transportation
10 tako the southern negroes to Africa aud
were each negro deported furnished with
forty acres and mule and guaranteed a
good living for the rest OF his days the pro-
Jet would fail SANDo has no idea of
being separated from his white model. He
must be near a white standard TO look up
10. Even the negro leader would rather
he a small-fry politician in the South,
where he imagincs politics placehi some-
what on level with the white man, than
be a king in Africa. Here the negro is
going to stay while the W nlth of the
native land of his race is made to flow into
the Golfers of the whites.

Ovsters and Revenue.

To he Editor Of NE DISPATCH;
would be obliged to you for space 70
renly to so much OF Mr. II. 5. Thomas's ar
ticle on Oysters and Revenue that APP
reared In the Dispatch of the 18th instant
as IS pertinent TO a subject that IS now at
tracting some attention. With that part
OF the paper that relates TO the ancient his
tory Of the oyster have nothing 10 do. IL
was interesting and we will presume accu-
rate. but when q citizen comes forward to
advise the Governor and the General As
sembly as TO policy that affects great
industry he should be sure of his ground.
Governor Mckinney and the Gene
raj Assembly earnestly desire TO give
the people good government. Ihey,
desire TO increase the revenues OF
the Commonwealth without hamperlng or
DESTROYING any of our industries and they
want facts and not fallacious figures or mis-
leading theories. The drift of Mr.. Thomas
article Is to incline our people 10 look IA
yorably upon Rhode Islands policy as an
example with notifications perhaps) wor-
thy OF being followed by Virginia, and he
gives the revenue derived by Rhode Island
from an annual tax of ten dollars per acre
for several years up TO 1873. He gives
these figures as aa evidence of the great
success of Rhode Islands policy, and
quotes Professor Brooks as saying: Ii oil
the grounds suitable for planting in our
(Naryland) waters could be made "a profit
able as the oyster-grounds Of Rhode Island
now are, they would return annually to
their cultivators 5000, 000. 600.
Professor Brooks made the above re-
mark. but no made il dozen years ago.
He would seriously object to having It
brought forward as his opinion in 1890. It
will be observed that the last Rhode Island
return quoted by Mr.. Thomas was for 1878.
That was twelve years ago. So far as
throwing light upon the subsequent ex-
perience Of that State these figures are
history as ancient as that with which lie
opened his article. II is the present we
have TO deal with, not tho past. In what
condition were the Rhode Island planters
in 1889? I quote the disinterested testi-
mopy Of the Shell Fish Commissioners Of
Connecticut. eighth report. 1883, pages Is
and 10.
1.-THE remarkable success of the system
established by the State Of Connecticut
for promoting this great industry has at
tracted the attention Of other States. The
commissioners have supplied some of
these States with details of the various
branches of the work, the particular
methods observed, the forms used. and the
various record-books of the commission,
and they have been generally adopted
With slight variations. In addition to the
States heretofore named the State Of
Rhode Island may now be mentioned. The

DR.. Hoor, chairman OF tho committee OF
tho Evangelical Alliance on funeral re-
forms. which IL to be submitted to the
meeting Of the Alliance to be held tonight.
The report discusses tho matter OF funeral
sermons and various other questions that
pertain to the burial of our beloved
ones, but its most important clauses
We consider to be those relating
10 the practice of economy at fune-
rails and the avoidance OF exposure
TO the weather by those who feel 1t their
duty to witness the solemn ceremony of
committing ashes TO ashes and dust to
dnst at the cemetery. Extravaganza at
funerals is an evil, and many one feels
called upon 10 go to expense to purchase
flowers to place on the casket Of dead
friend who seldom. if ever. threw flower
in the path Of the living, while,
az is well urged, funeral customs,
not to SAY fashions, straiten for
months poor families into which the
genius Of death has entered. Tho habit OF
barring the head at the grave in inclement
weather is perhaps greater evil than that
of making a display that could be reduced
TO practical charity for the benefit of tho
living. The alliance is moving i'll the right
direction and will accomplish great good II
it shall succeed in establishing mean be-
tween ostentation and the true respect
that is due the dead. While we sympatillzo
with funeral reform in so far rs 1t would
prevent extravaganza and discourage eX-
posure Of the delicate ut the grave, we
would reprobate nothing more than tho
cold, stern. profossional-mourner practice
that obtains in some countries abroad.
There is no reason for antagonism between
love for the dead and duty to the living IN
efforts to bring about funeral reform.
