sEATTLE's INCOME FOR NEXT YEAR.

As the time approaches for the assess
ment of taxes for next year the interest Of
taxpayers is aroused as TO the probable
property valuation. Last year il was
sos. 900, 600. and ii was then estimated that
for 1891 il would not be more than $780,
10000. The expected decrease in build
ing has been much less than was calcu-
lated, however, nor has the natural adj
vance Of values been retarded TO the ex-
tent anticipated. But the most important
factor to be reckoned ID the operation Of
the revenue and taxation law passed by
the last session, which requires, under
penal provisions, a cash valuation or
"such valuation as property would bear if
sold in the regular course Of business"
The combination Of these three inau-
ences has made il matter Of mere guess
work TO foretell the property valuation
this year. II viii probably be found that
the total will be over SIS, 600 800 and under
100000
This is not altogether desirable result
until IL becomes thoroughly well known
! that the valuation 10 on cash basis, be-
cause It may look ike imitation. II will
work no hardship on taxpayers. however.
as the rate Of levy win be proportionateiy
less. So far as can be judged by the ex-

months, modified by the smaller necss-

conditions that McEeil's act must be

AN IMPORTERS RAID.


The selfish cunning of the importing
class has been strikingly manifested in q
suit they are now prosecuting against the
government. On large invoices of satins,
pushes, velyets and the like. of which just
as good qualities and styles are manufact-
ured in this country, duties have been de-
manded and paid under & classification as
manufactures of silk, (which unquestion-
ably they are.
But as matter of twenty 20 thirty
millions annually might be diverted from
the treasury by CHASING these materials
as "hat trimmings" on which the duty is
much lower, these gentlemen have under
taken TO have the classification changed
accordingly. While it is quite true that
these materials may be used for hat trim
mings, it IL equally true that they can be
and will re applied 70 all the other uses TO
which such manu- features Of silk are
adapted.
1t is pleasant 10 know that the govern
ment proposes 10 make vigorous fight
against this raid upon its treasury.

THE OHIO CONVENTION.

The first session of the Ohio Republican
State Convention yesterday proved SO en-
thusiastie and manifested SO little Of any
thing savoring of division that there is
practically no doubt as TO the nomination
today Of ex-congressman Mckinley TO
lead the Republican ticket in November.
When Mr.. Mckinley was defeated he was
considerably buried by his Democratic
enemies; but today 3 action of the conven-
ton will show that it was good thing for
him that the fortunes of political war
placed him where he will be able to lead a
united party to victory. The presidential
election is looming up now. too. and to-
days action of the Ohio Republicans can
hardly do otherwise than have a notice

GRAY's HARBoR RAILROADS.
Trsekfayers Within Five Miles Of Aber-
deen-President Cakes visit.

Aberdeen, June 16.-fSpecial.l THE
railroad tracklayers are about five miles
away, coming quite leisurely, and expect
TO reach here in the course of time. In
South Aberdeen the depot looms mp, and
will be ready several months in advance OF
any need for il. The bridge on which the
track is to cross the Chehalis river viii re-
quIre several months 10 build, and in the
meantime it is said the iron will be ferried
across the river on scows and laid TO
Ocosta. The South side depot and the
tracklaying Of course is being done in ad-
vance of any need for it to keep alive the
South side boom. In fact. every move Of
the railroad constructors has been made
with view to booming townsites.
The Cakes party did not stop here-that
is, did not land, the steamer simply COM
ing into the Wishkah river and giving the
party chance to view the proposed cross
ing of the railroad into Aberdeen, and 10
inspect the water front. They remained
one night at the Hotel Hoauiam, and left
Sunday morning on tug for Shoalwater
bay. OF course the fact that President
Cakes did not visit Aberdeen viii be hailed
with delight by lower harbor towns, but
that won't hurt Us any. The railroad that

hands Of men whose sole interest lay else
where, we did not expect any favors from
their hands. Aberdeen remembers the
successful contest Seattle made with q
great railroad corporation, and has no
fear but she viii come out all right, even
if railroads do not undertake TO boom her
interests. Her ship yards, sawmills. plan
ing mills, foundries and machine shops
will attend 10 the booming.
Aberdeen people read with amusement

concerning the visit of the railroad party,
especially that part about the construction
of the railroad from "Montesano, the
present terminus. 10 Gray's Harbor, the

that the track is now within five miles Of
Aberdeen, and that the city Of Gray's

that the track will be laid TO Aberdeen

really interesting.

CHICAGO AND SEATTLE.

The retiring Mayor Of Chicago has adj
dressed Q message to the City Council which
contains . lot Of very valuable informa-
ton. As Seattle is following In the foot
steps Of the great lake city, 1t may be of
interest TO know what problems present
themselves to city of l,09s, 576 popula-
ton, and perhaps some points may be OBJ
tanned. The population of Seattle to Chi
cago Is as 10 "A, and although that ratio
could not be expected to be retained
throughout all the details of municipal ad-
uinistration, it is the basis from which
comparisons can be roughly made.
Referring to the area of the city Mayor
Cregier says: 1.-THE experience Of older
cities demonstrates that contracted bound
ary lines tend TO retard progress"
The bonded Indebtedness of the city
amounts to $13,5f5, 400, bearing interest
from 81 to 7 per cent. OF this amount
$9s3, 800 was assumed with annexation of
territory. During the next two years this
is 10 be increased by 5000, 900 more, max
ing $is, 900, "a much smaller debt,
says the mayor, than any other city of
similar size and pretensions."
The fire department consists of Ola men,
and the police department Of 1880 men;
the ratio Of to "A would allow 70 police
men and 80 firemen to Seattle.
During the year II 600 structures, valued
at nearly 100000, have been added to
the city. As the total number Of buildings
In Chicago is estimated at 10000, the in
crease in one year is a very large pro-
portion.
The assessed valuation of city property,
real and personal, is s219. 354, 1865; the tax
levy. 1887, 0s7; revenues from licenses.
100000. If the population Of Chicago is
i,09s, 556 and the valuation S2l9, 354 .36s, and
the population of Seattle is 5000 with q
property valuation OF $50, 600 900. then the
per capita Of Chicago's wealth is 500 and
that of Seattle 81 1888.
The school system Of Chicago is one Of
the most excellent features of the city,
but il has cost considerable money. The
appropriation for 1891 is over s., 500, 900;
there are 2is school buildings, and the en-
YoIlment foi the year is $4,000, or rather
less than the proportion maintained by
Seattle. The entire system represents an
expenditure Of over ST. ,0o0, 900.
The Mayor thinks the police force too
small. Chicago covers an area of Isl
square miles, and has ten men to the
square mile, or one man to each 7i5 of pop
nlation. New York, with an area Of 10
square miles, her force is equal 70 II
men per square mile. The cost per capita
in New York is s2.6o; in Chicago si.s3 per
capita.
II the proportion Of population 70 ex-
pense be applied, the result will show that
seattle's government would cost sos, 2I2:
but this cannot be accepted as strictly ap-
pIicable, because the frst cost of govern
ment in all cities Is by far the larger part,
and increase Of population does not neces-
sarily involve relative increase of ex-
pense.
Taken altogether, the comparison 10 not

THE HORRORS OF WAR.

At st. Louis, Mo-, June sth, General
John Mcneil, superintendent of post
Office station in that city, was stricken
with heart disease and died instantly.
while engaged in performance OF his off,
cial duties. His death recalls q thrilling
incident Of the late war, with which his
name was inextrieably connected
Mcneil had been a resident of St. Louis
since 1885, where he had amassed a hand
some fortune in the hat business. At the
outbreak of the war he raised a company
in st. louis, and was gradually promoted
until he became Brigadier General and
took command of Reserve corps, and
was stationed at Palmyra, Mo, which
place be was compelled to evacuate on the
appearance of Colonel Joseph c. Porter. of
the Confederate army with superior
force subsequently the latter, in turn,
evacuated the town and Mcneil resumed
possession.
Once more intrenched at Palmyra, Gem
eral Mcneil discovered that Colonel Porter,
while in possession, had unlswfully i'm
prisoneG one Andrew ALBANIAN, Union
ist whom be still held in durance. General
Mcneil at once addressed letter to
Colonel Porter, which was delivered TO the
latter's wife, resident Of the place, for
transmission 10 her husband, giving him
notice that unless within ten days Ala
man should be released, and delivered
within the Union lines. he (McNeil) would
execute ten persons who had served in the
Confederate ranks or sympathiEed with
that cause.
And forthwith he seized and held as
hostages the number Of persons indicated,
six of whom had borne arms on the other
side. And at the end of the stipulated ten
days, ALBANIAN still being held prisoner.
the ten men, seated on their collins, were
conveyed in wagons TO an appointed place
and shot to death as threatened.
Asa scrap of history, revived thus long
after the event, this is a hlood-eurdling
recital. II confirms the paradoxical pro-
verb that civil war is the most uncivilixed
form of civilized warfare And it wildly
recalls the surprising bitterness of that
contest as whole. and the peculiar ma
lightly which characterized II in the Dor
der states, in which respect Missouri and
Kentucky were the most conspicuous.
Those states had refused to unite their
fortunes with the Southern Confederacy.
They raised their full quotas Of troops for
the Union army. 1t was q necessary and
trying incident TO their geographical posi-
ton that their territory was harried by
both of the contending armies. Thus
weakened and distressed, the Unionists of
those states were subjected TO far greater
! and more terrible grievance in the shape
of guerrilla warfare. predatory raids, arson,
amhushed assassina,ions and all manner
OF similar enormities st the hands OF their
Confederate synpathixing neighhors.

To THE EDITOR; / see by an occasional glance

stance where these bowling demsgogues have
the courage TO attack a single item Of the appro-

They dare not revert 10 the extra amounts
