DIVIDING THE TAN.

Senator MARGINS bill permitting the
payment of taxes in semi-annual in
stallmentS is an intelligent measure,
which is entitled to serious cOnsidera-
ton. 1t provides, according to a sum-
mary of it prepared by himself, that all
real and personal property taxes shall
hereafter become due and delinquent on
and after the first day of April in each
year, but that any taxpayer shall have
the option of paying one-half of his
taxes at that date and the other half on
or before the first day of October, with
the prOviSo that if the half due on the
lst of April is not then paid the whole
tax shall be thereupon deemed delin-
quent.
Mr.. MARCH claims that his bill will
accomplish two objects. both of which
are desirable. 1t will relieve the tax
payer to whom it may be burdensome
TO pay all his tax at one time, and it will
better distribute the inflow of money
intOthe public treasury. Under the pres
ent system in the cities a very large
amount of money is tied up at once,
which derangeS and tighIenS the mar
ket about the 1st of June, and the city
and county governments are supplied
with needlessly great resources, which
lie idle at a considerable loss of interest
or are used to meet past obligations in
Cured of necessity because there has
been so long a stretch during which no
income was received. In the country
the farmer, who is proverbially poor in
the spring, has to allow his tax to be-
come delinquent. This adds considera-
bly, to his burden, which he might be
spared were only a moiety asked of him
at this time. The rural counties. which
suffer good deal from lack of funds
during the summer, would be helped by
the law also if its effect were to induce
the country property owner to pay in
the spring the part of his tax which was
then due, by making it possible tor him
TO do so.
The Clio BE presents the provisions
and purposes of the bill to its readers
thus, in practically the language of its
author. 1t sees no objection to the
idea. and thinks that it may be caIcu-
lated to accomplish a good deal of good.

Senator Tawney made strong speech
against the measure. He thought that if
placed in the constitution it would prove an

Senator Hompe favored the passage of the

request of the railroad committee be read be-

this as an attack on him, and declared that

Young Harry Martin Incurs Ben
Harrison's Antipathy.

WAsHINGToN, March 24-President
Harrison has decided that Senator
Vance's stepscn, Harry Martin, shall be
made to pay the penalty of his escapade
in breaking into the White house and
alarming the household on Saturday
night. The president arrived at this
determination after hearing some of the
details OF young Martins spree before
reaching the White house. The presi-
dent was told that last Saturday night
Martin was guest at dinner given at
a fashionable restaurant, and, after hav-
ing row with his host, suddenly arose
from the table and started for the
White house, with the Intention, as he
announced 1t, to do Ben Harrison"
ms information. which was c0mmuni-
Gated 10 the president to-day made him
very angry. He was the more incensed
when he learned that two other drunk
en- men, protiting by Martins behavior,
had presented themselves at the White
house to-day and noisily demanded ad-
mission.
When hearing on Martins case was
called III the police court to-day Mr..
Dubois, the White house attache who
arrested him, appeared with Mr.. AmeS,
the assistant United States attorney for
the District of Columbia, and at the i'll
stance Of the attorney swore out war
rant charging THAT John Harry Martin
did then and there feloniousIy break and
enter into the executive mansion, pub
nc building, in the night time, with the
Intent 20 commit a miSdemeanOr.' Mr..
Ames stated that the president desired
a full investigation of the matter, and
the government was ready 10 proceed.

motion OF his attorney, he was admitted
to $500 bail and the case continued until
next Thursday.

HARRISON AND BLAINE

The Minneapolis Tribune, which.
under its new management, is reported
TO be in with the gods at Washington.
declares that BLAINE and HARRISON
love each other dearly, and that BLAINE
is for HARRISON and HARRISON for
BLAINE, and both for themselves. in
1892, in way that is very confusing to
man who is not accustomed to discuss
ing the problems of medieval theology.
1t reminds the GLOBE little of the
remarkable crew which manned the
Nancy Bell, where everybody was one
man and one man was everybody. In
that interesting case, the explanation of
the cooks dark sayings was finally found
when it appeared that he was every
body else as well as himself, because
he had devoured the rest of the crew.
And it may, in the same way, be that
what the Tribune means is that there
viii be the utmost harmony between
the two Republican leaders when one
has succeeded i'll consuming the other
at the next national convention.
The New York Sun. (which is nowhere
near the throne, says in language which
is considerably less obscure than that of
our Minneapolis contemporary, that
HARRISON is for himself in 1892, and
for himself very severely and very
earnestly. 1t declares that it knows
this for other reasons, and because he is
going to start pretty soon or a junket-
ing tour around the country, when he
will deliver amiable speeches from the
car windows at successive stations,
while the school children sing songs of
welcome and pelt him with nosegays.
The Sun claims that this is conclusive
evidence that he wants denomination.
and is working for it. The GLOBE ad-

mits that the symptoms favor the Suns
conclusions, although 1t should be re-
membered that RUTHERFORD B. HAYES
did good deal of travelling during the
years of his usurpation, and it is hardly
possible that in his widest dreams he
considered a continuance of his term
attainable.
Wien Mr.. CLEVELAND visited the
West, he was a welcome and interest
ing guest, but the opposition newspa-
perS criticised his speeches as smacking
too much of the guide books and an
nual encyclopedias. 1t was not to be
expected or desired, however. that he
should manufacture his statistics. If
statistics have any claim to existence,
it must have something to do with their
accuracy. They surely are not excit-
ing. MIR. CLEVELAND was quite right,
therefore, in relying on the standard
authorities for his figures il he was 60
ing to use any. BE was also quite right
in avoiding epigramS and flippant wit
ticiSms. Nobody who knows the facts
can find fault with Mr.. CLEv GLANDS
lucidity and brilliancy of expression at
the proper time. His state papers were
models OF courage and clearness. But
when he went about shaking hands,
like a courteous gentleman. he left
business at home, and did not under
take to be didactic or proselytiZing.
The GLOBE would like to see BENJA-
MIN HARRISON the Republican nominee
i'll 1892, and it hopes that he will not
hurt his chances by trying to be smart
if he goes swinging around the circle.
One more speech about cheap goods
being only fit for cheap men might dis
courage his most loyal champions into
silence. Let him avoid the tariff, the
currency contraction question and the
force bill. The billion-dollar congress
would also be an unhappy subject for
discussion in Il mixed audience. There
will be no objection to his talking
about the weather, and if he knows of
cure for the grip and will tell it, his
progress will be one of triumph. If he
is weak OH this subject, however, he can
fall back on the civil war and other
branches of ancient history. These are
always instructive, and need frequent re-
hearsal if the Republican party is to
have any standing room i'll the COM
munity.

THE KANSAS LEGISLATURE.

1t is an important piece of news that
the Kansas legislature has adjourned
without enacting a single law which is
open to the charge of being revolution
airy. Its only conspicuous achievement
was the substitution of that eminent
flnancier, Mr. PETER, for the epigram-
matte INGALLS,. The lower house was
made up of great host of farmers,
most OF them men of character, but I'M
used to life in large cities or the meth
obs OF parliamentary bodies. They
elected a vigorous gentleman very ia
miliar with the rules to the speakership,
and he developed very rapidly into a
sort of profane THOMAS b. REED, lCrd-
ing it with great might over his col
leagues and coercing them into order
and movement with cuffs and assaults
OF various patterns. Before they got
thoroughly down 10 business, however,
the session was over, and the reorgani-
cation OF society was deferred to some
future year.
There has been more talk about this
Kansas legislature than any of the year.
and the net result show how senseless
the panic people feel over th effect
of re evolutionary talk. Our system of
government, with double houses of con-
gress, executive yetOes and frowning
supreme courts, makes it practically
impossible to upset the existing order
of things by legislation. Legislatures
can and ought to remove abuses and
class privileges and exemptions. But
the general principles of civil liberty,
of the rights of property and of the
sanctity of contracts ought to be safe
from their assaults, and, i'll fact, are so.
The pillars of fundamental law are so
strong that the demagogue, even though
he is willing to kill himself to pull them
down, finds his powers unequal to the
| task.
