The Dntc, the Oak, the Ash and tho
Legends Concerning Them


Legends Concerning Them
The palm, the oak and the ash are,
according to timely and interesting
article in tie June number of the
Dcutsche Rundschau, the three trees
which, since time iInmcmo::;Sl, were
held to be sacred trees. The first among
them which figures on the oldest monil-
ments and pictures of the Egyptians
and Assyrians is the date palm horae-
tan. Tradition of n later period says
that when Adam left Paradise he was
allowed to take with him three things
u myrtle, because it was the most love
" and most scented flower on earth; Il
wheat ear, because it had the most
nourishmcnt, and n date, because it was
the most glorious fruit of the earth.
The date from Paradise was in some
marvellous way brought to the Dcjaz.
from it have come all the date palms in
the woril, and Allah destined it to be
the food of all true believers, who shall
conquer every country where the date
palm grows.
The oak was always considered
holy tree by our ancestors and, above
all, by the nations of the north of
Europe. When 'NYinnifred, of Devon
shire (GS0-T54 A. d., went forth on his
wanderings through Germany to preach
the Gospel one of his first actions was
to cut down the giant oak in SaXony,
which was dedicated to Thor and
worshipcd by the people from far and
near. But when he had nearly felled
the oak and while the people were curs-
ing and threatening the saint n super
natural storm swept over it, seized the
summit broke every branch and dashed
it, quasi superni, motus, Solaris, with
tremendous crash to the ground. The
hcathenS acknowledged the marvel and
many of them were converted there and
then. But the saint built Il chapel of
the wood of this very oak and dedicated
it TO ST. Peter.
The CcltS and Germans and Scandi-
navians, again, worshiped the mount
ain ash, and it is especially i'll the re-
igious myths of the latter that the
"Asltr Yggdrasil" plays prominent
part. To them it was the hottest among
trees, the ''world tree" which, eternal
~ young and dewy, represented Heaven,
earth and hell. According to the Edda
the ash ygglrasil was an evergreen
tree. A specimen of it (says Adam, of
Bremen,) grew Mt Upsala, in front of
the great temple, and another in Dith-
marschcn, carefully guarded by n rail-
ing, for it was, in mythical way, con-
nccted with the fate of the country.
When Dithmarschcn lost it's liberty the
tree withered, but magpie, one of the
best prophesying birds of the North,
came and built it's nest on the withcred
tree and Matched five little ones, all
perfectly white. as n sign that at some
future time the country would regain
ats former liberty.

THE STATE BOARD ASSESS.
ORS AND EQUALIZATION.

Substitute for Senate Bill No. 40.
creating State Board of Assessors
and Equalization, has passed both
Houses OF the Legislature and there
is no question that it will become q
Law by the signature Of the Governor
The Board will be composed OF the
Governor, State Controller, Secretary
OF State, Attorney General aud State
Treasurer, and some OF the duties Of
the Board are as follows:
TO annually assess all railroads and
the rolling stock OF all railroads in
this State at their actual cash value,
and to apportion such assessments to
the counties in which such railroads
are located in proportion to the num-
Der Of miles OF main track laid in such
counties; provided, that to each coun-
ty shall be apportloned the total as
sessuient OF side track laid therein.
The language Of the above is sus-
ceptible of various constructions, and
it is the opinion of some that there
is an African in the coal bin which
will not be an advantage to those
counties containing large number Of
miles of the main track of the g. P.
Railroad. Our own opinion, however,
is that there is no occasion for alarm
in this, and that each county will re-
ceive the benefit of the total assess
ment on the number of miles Of main
track, together with the side tracks,
laid therein. Railroads are to be as
sessed upon their actual cash value,
in determining which the Board re-
quires sworn statement from one Of
the principal officers of such road
showing in detail, among other
things, the gross earnings Of the en-
tire road, and of the road within this
State, the cost of operating the road
and the net income for the year. In
ascertainlng, assessing and fixing the
value OF any railroad for taxation the
Board shall consider, treat and assess
it as an integral part of complete,
continuous and operated line Of rail-
road.
The State Board is clothed with
authority to increase or diminish any
assessment made in any county by
the County Assessor, or by the Couu-
ty Commissioners as a Board of
Equalization, hence these county
Offices are mere figure heads IN the
assessment Of property in their re-
spective counties; and when an as
sessment is made by the County
Assessor, or when any change in his
assessment is made by the County
Commissioners, these officers have no
assurance that their figures will not
be, changed by this august State
Board Of Assessors. Thus all power
in the assessment OF property in each
and every county is taken out of the
hands of the county officers and given
to the State Board. It is not Suits
factory measure and the people of
Elko county are not bashful in con-
dsmning il in strong and expressive
language, believing as they do that it
was passed purely in the interes t Of
the railroads of the State.

Prominent People Everywhere Asking
About Robert ID. Smith.
The eexclusive publication in THE DISPATCH
of the story that Robert d. Smith, member
of the patrician order of the Society of the
Cincinnati, was at the Poor Farm has caused
a flood of lettersto pour into the Depart
ment of Charities from members of the So
ciety all over the country. One is from
William n. Smith, a nephew of Robert d..
Smith, He was a member of the firm of
Hood, Bonbright & Co., and said Robert d.
Smith was the grandson of Captain Samuel
Smith, of Revolutionary fame. He has been
missing for number of years, and the
nephew wants him taken back to Philadel-
Mayor William Wayne, of Paola, Pa, who
is a grandson of Mad Anthony Wayne and
also President of the Society of the Gin
cinnati of Pennsylvania, also wrote inquir-
ing about Mr.. Smith. Another letter was
received From Francis nj. Caldwell, of Phila-
delphia, who is secretary of the society. He
saws the organization will take care of Rob-
ert Smith for the rest of his life. Yesterday
Isaac Craig of Allegheny, also wrote and
while Mr.. Eaton was reading that letter W.
H. Irwin, of Pittsburg, who also belongs to
this famous order called and secured per-
nit to visit the man. The only trouble now
feared is that there may be fight between
the society and Mr.. Smiths relatives for the
privilege of taking care of him.
