Detroit's Gala Day.


DETROIT, Mich, Aug. 3.-The City Of
the Straits to-day gives greeting to the
"boys in blue" who are assem- bling for
the double purpose of participating in the
annual encampment and celebrating the
"silver anniversary" or quarter centen.,
nial, of the organization OF the Grand
Army of the Republic. In the matter OF
accommodations especially, Detroit has
outdone itself and there need be no fears
that any visitors will be compelled to con-
tent themselves with the green.sward OF
the parks and fields, or the doorways OF
the big buildings to find rest for their
weary bones after the shades OF night
have fallen. The hotel accom- modations
alone will provide for &C odly number
of visitors, while in addition, the homes OF
5000 or 1000 residents have been thrown
open and no less than 35, 900 free quarters
have been secured. Every assignment
made to visitor for lodging is accompani-
ed by full instructions and maps giving
it's locality, while, in addition eleven
special stations have been established
throughout the city where complete
glossary of assignments are registered and
all questions answered.
Detroit presents beautiful appearance
under the Summer sun to-day. Never be-
fore in her history has she been decked
in such gorgeous attire. From the
wharves on the river front, away miles
back into the agricultural suburbs, there
is hardly residence, or business house,
store, or official building, onswhich the
national colors are not displayed. Many
Of them are literally enveloped in bunting
Of artistic design, while strips OF canvas
bearing sentences of greeting are to be
encountered dozen times in single
block. Across the principal streets are
magnificent triurphal arches. The grand
parade occurs tomorrow.

the initial number of a new educational
magazine, which, under good auspices, is
sent out by strong New York publishing
house. The greatly increased interest in
education has created a call for an able
wisely edited review which may discuss with
moderation and thoughtfulness the higher
questions, make well-balanced canvass Of
theory and tendencies. and examine with a
discriminating eye educational ways and
work. To this undoubted demand the new

A matter which is of interest to every citi-
zen OF Maine is the question of taxation
which will during this week begin to take
considerable space in the reports of the pro-
ceedings of the Legislature. Under a re-
solve Of the last Legislature, a commission
was appointed which has investigated the
law on the subject In this and other states
and has given the result Of its labors In
an exhaustive report. A special committee
OF tire present Legislature has been appoint.
cd to which this report and other matters
concerning taxation have been referred.
The subject naturally divides itself into SUBJ
divisions such as the taxation of real and
personal estates. the mortgages thereon, cor
porations. etc. On these questions the Gem
mittee will give hearings so that besides the
matter, every business man and property
owner will find that in one or more Of these
subjects for examination by the committee
he has an especial interest. This week the
committee will give the first Of these he earrings
the subjects Of which have already been an
nounced. When 1t is remembered that
questions Of taxation, besides being Of a
character in which all people are interested,
are of SO complex a kind that there Is
great diversity of opinion among men who
have given years of painstaking labor to
their investigation, it will be apparent
that the task set for this committee
in revising and amending the present
law will be no easy one. The pro-
gress and result Of their work will be
eagerly watched. 1t is not to be expected
that their report will please everybody but
