as supply of / 500 tons of ore
per month could be assured. The
miners show that they are ready
to comply with this condition, and
more, by one man-Mr. n. J. Sharp

So it would seem that the only le-
climate reason for not operating at

is the low price of silver.

EMINENT SUICIDES.
Give and Castlereaeh Killed Themselves
and Napoleon Attempted To.

Give and Castlereaeh Killed Themselves
and Napoleon Attempted To.
The history of suicides presents long
array of eminent victims. The suicides
of antiquity are not considered, for men
were educated in those days to embrace
suicide when all was lost. We do not
find many conspicuous instances of sui
eide in the Middle Ages. Outdoor &C.
tivity and an intensely practical life was
the rule with men of sensibility outside
Of convent walls, and suicide was not
common until the Eighteenth century,
when men of sedentary lives began to
multiply, The Nineteenth century is
conspicuous for suicides compared with
the Eighteenth, and the most studious
nation in the world, Germany, furnishes
the largest list of suicides.
Next to Germany. France furnishes
the largest list of suicides among civil
lied peoples. The English are not prone
to suicide. Their love of outdoor sports
keeps them free from dyspepsia and dis
orders of the liver, and their native
courage and endurance prompts them
to cling to live even when life is but one
long, ceaseless round of pain. Three
eminent Englishmen committed suicide,
Lord Give, the founder of England's
Indian empire; Sir Samuel Romilly, a
great jurist and philanthropist, and
Lord Castlereagh, famous statesman,
England's representative in the congress
of Vienna after the fall of Napoleon.
Give was hypochrondriac from
youth, and used opium in his last years;
Romilly was respondent over the death
of his wife, and bitterly repented his act
with his dying breath. The self de-
struction of Castlereagh was never
clearly explained. Napoleon attempted
suicide. Frederick the Great prepared
for it by carrying poison in his clothes
during his dreadful fight for his crown.
No eminent American has ever commit
ted suicide, although suicide is more
common in America than in England,
owing doubtless to the intensity of our
struggle for wealth and fame.
Insane men are frequently suicides,
but it can hardly be said that all sui
cides are insane. The paralysis of the
instinct of self preservation may result
from severe mental and bodily suffer
ing, and the deliberation and seeming
sanity of the suicides preparation for
death, the calmness of his last words,
would often seem to forbid the theory
of insanity. The hopeless consumptive,
the victim of cancer, not seldom COM
mits suicide to secure that sudden stop
to suffering that we call humanity when
extended to wretched brute. Suicide
is rare among savage tribes, probably
because they are so occupied with pure
ly material matters that they have no
time for spiritual agony or severe men,
tai strain, or costly round Of various

upon which the taxes were paid was
the true cdlue of the property within
the meaning Of our revenue laws, but
that the company, having failed to take
steps TO have the action of the commits
sioners in refusing to reduce the ASSESS
ment to the admitted value of the
property reviewed, could not now set
up such defense against the proceed
ings to foreclose the tax lien.
The revenue law of 1890 provides
that if in the action to foreclose the tax
lien it is made to appear to the court
that the taxes against such piece or
parcel of land have been partially, IN
tdirly or unequatLy assessed" the court
may reduce them and give judgment
accordingly. And yet in face of the
finding of the referee that these taxes
'cere partially, unfairly and unequally
assessed" a judgment is ordered en-
tered against the company's property
for something over $4,000, and the
company is obliged to look to the SUI
preme court for relief. The decision is
in direct conflict with large number
of other decisions of the same court in
these tax cases, as for example the
Rankin case, in which it was conceded
by the county attorney and the court
as well that the same defence could be
made and was valid defence to the
action. While this is perhaps the
most fragrant decision yet rendered by
the judge against the company it is by
no means the only instance of adverse
judgments from the same court against
the same corporation. Several are now
before the supreme court on appeal.
We have no desire to unduly prejud-
ice the court in the minds of the people
and in view of the election which is
now so near at hand we refrain from
extended comment on the case, merely
taking the liberty to suggest that if the
had been against a poor
man or any private citizen, instead of a
and such manifest1y
unjust judgment had been rendered the
affair would not be regarded by the
general public with the same degree of
lenience, not to say satisfaction, as it
doubtless will be in this case. 1t is against
corporation, however, and may
result in intrenching the court
with the calamity howlers and Others
who have seemed to delight in making
lnwarranted statements to the effect
hat the judge is unduly friendly to
corporations in general and the Fair
haven Land Company in particular.

Chased by a Wild Car.

Il was chased once by box car"
said Harry G. Moore, an ex-railroad
man. ut was out in Colorado, the land
of steep grades and sharp curves. We
were sliding down the mountains one
day with baggage car and two coaches.
| was on the rear platform looking at
the road when / deserted box car
coming down the grade at a rate of
speed that was appalling. If it struck
us we were gone sure, for it would
smash the entire train into kindling
wood and pile it up in one of the gorges.
Our only hope was either to outrun or
wreck it. The engineer caught sight of
it at the same instant that I did and put
the lever down among the tallow pots.
1t appeared impossible that we could
hold the track ON the sharp curves while
moving more than mile minute, but
we did, and the box car continued to
saw wood.
eff we could once get to the foot of
the grade we would he safe, but that
was soon seen to be impossible. Rapidly
as we were going the box car continued
to gain upon us, and now we could see
that it was loaded with iron. Some
thing must be done and that quickly.
ALI the passengers had fed into the for
ward coach and were hanging on TO the
seats. signaled the engineer to shut
of, set brake hard on the rear coach,
pulled the pin and the engineer opened
the throttle. We had not gone 100 yards
before the box car ran into the coach
and sent splinters flying quarter of
mile high. Both went plunging over into
a chasm. st. Louis Globe Democrat.

Through the revengeful efforts of a
few men whose personal prejudices
are stronger than their loyalty to party,
an attempt Is being made to degrade
the Union Veteran League of What
com county to the level of a secret POI
litical combination, to redress the
grievances of certain aspirants for po-
litical honors who were not successful
in securing nominations at the Repub-
lican convention. Free speech and a
free ballot are the greatest privileges of
American citizenship, and no man who
prizes them as highly as he should will
question for moment the right of the
malcontents to individually work for
and vote for whomsoever they please,
but few who believe in fair dealing
will justify the methods adopted by
this little corterie of soreheads to array
an honorable organization against can
didates who arrived on this mundane
sphere too late participate in the war
for the preservation of the Union. The
Union Veteran League, as an organiza-
ton, has no more right to pursue pol
icy of intimidation in politics than has
union of hod-carriers or chimney
sweeps. We respect the independence
ofthe men who had the courage to re-
fuse to make the pledges which were
demanded of them as the price of sup
port of their candidacy. If we do not
mistake the temper of the people, the
scheme is one which will find little
favor at the polls.

AN UNJUST JUDGMENT

Judgment was rendered by Judge
Winn late Wednesday night in favor
of the county and against the Fair
haven Land Company for large sum
for delinquent taxes for the year 1890.
The circumstances of the case are such
that it seems eminently proper that we
should bring them to the attention Of
the public, especially in view Of the
fact that Judge WiDn's name is now
before the people as a candidate for re-
election, and the further fact that ii is
alleged that his candidacy is supported
by the very corporation against which
this unjust judgment is entered by his
order. For the reason that we do not
believe in dragging the judicial ermine
in the mire Of party politics for the
reason that we do not believe in a par
tisaR judiciary nor in the election of
judges by the popular vote, we have
hitherto RETAINED from making or
countenancing partisan fight for or
against either of the candidates for
superior judge upon whose names the
people are asked to vote at the APP
preaching election. And II is for these
same reasons that we feel justified now
in directing public attention to the facts
ia this case, from which our readers
can draw their own conclusions as to
the attitude of Judge VIM toward the
Fairhaven Land Company.
The company claimed to have COM
promised and settled with the commits
sioners in full for these taxes in Deem
Der. 1890, at the same time that the
county relinquished its absurd claim to
the ownership of Deadman's point.
When the commissioners met In Au-
gust, 1890, as a board Of equalization,
the Land Company appeared before
them by it's attorney and asked to
have the assessment reduced on some
of It's acreage, claiming that 1t was
grossly excessive, and at the same time
rendered TO the county the taxes upon
what the company claimed to be the
true value Of the lands. BY agreement
the case came up for trial before James
III. DERRICK, Esq, Of the firm Of VIII
kin & DERRICK, Of this city, as ref
cree, and judgment was rendered
by Judge winn in accordance with
the referees findings Of fact and
conclusions Of law. Judge DERRICK
found, as fact, that the assessment as
returned by the county assessor ,Cas er-
csssice and that the valuation placed
upon the acreage by the company and

Two Facts About a Ring.

An impressionable young gentleman
in certain country town recently met
charming girl whose grace and beauty
took his heart by storm. While con-
versing with her he made a discovery
which he fondly hoped would enable
him to make at one brilliant stroke an
elegant proof Of his ready wit and his
boundless affection. CHANGING at a
modest band of gold that encircled her
fair finger, he remarked, Sweet dam.
sci, l pray you present me with the ring
you wear, for / assure you it exactly
resembles my love for you-it has no

Indeed, sir" promptly replied the
maiden; you must excuse me if keep
the ring, for it exactly resembles also
my love for you--it has no beginning. +"

Theories About Drowned Bodies.

1t was popular theory in days gone
by that the body Of drowned man
would float the ninth day, a notion
which, Mr.. Henderson informs us, pre-
walls in the county of Durham. Sir
Thomas Browne alludes to it as believed
in his time, and in his ''Pseudo-doxia
Epidemics" there is a discussion ON this
fancifnl notion. 1t was also believed
that the spirits of those drowned at sea
were doomed TO wander for 100 years,
owing to the rites of burial having never
been properly bestowed upon their
odies.--Notes and Queries.

The talk about sugar and wool being
affected the same by the tariff is nom
sensical. After 100 years of protection
this country did not produce 10 per
cent. of the sugar 1t consumed. After
ten years of genuine protection for

consumed. The imports of foreign
