find that the demand for unlimited

much more cordial support than any

EASILY ANswERED.-The Olympian
endeavors to make point against the
STANDARDS advocacy of retrenchment
in the reduction of salaries, by assert
ing: BY the way, our Democratic
neighbors used himself to be an office
holder. Will he please make a de-
tailed statement OF how much OF his
salary and fees he was accustomed to
rebate, in order that his earnings
might not exceed what the ordinary
laborer was receiving?" Willingly,
brother. The first salary received by
the writer was as Territorial Auditor
and Quartermaster-General, at the
muni6cent salary of $500 per annum.
He was School Superintendent of
Thurston county, at $500 per annum.
Afterwards Auditor again at $500
per annum, out of which he had to
pay clerk hire, rent, fuel, postage and
other incidental expenses, making the
net profit less than the pay of FORE
man in shop, or q chief clerk in q
store. He was likewise Councilman
for nearly dozen years at a salary OF
5000. Are you answered, dear
brother? Will the "laborers" have
any difficulty in determining the point
you raise, whether we are reformer"
or a demagogue?"

The Uympian, while pretending to
favor reduction OF taxation, seams
disposed TO " stand in" with those who
have an object in keeping the treasury
full the more readily to dispense fat
salaries to thems Ives and friends.
The Olympica would favor re-
duced valuation of taxable property,
tHt 10! it, pfhiiffaHtf1ropic sympathy
Is checked by the discovery that the
Assessor is powerless in the matter.
The law defines his duties" it de.
clares, "and points out the manner in
which he shall do his work" Pre-
clsely, and what is that duty? The
law says: He shall determine, as
nearly as practicable, the value OF each
lot or tract OF property listed for tax
alton" Now. what is that value? How
is it to be determined? Must it be
listed at the values at which property
sold two or three years ago, when
everything was moving at high
pressure speed? Must it he valued at
iigure- 10 realize an aggregate revenue
to meet the pronigate expenditures Of
former years? What is the "true and
fair value" if it is not the amount OF
money that property will command in
the open market? Money is the only
recognized measure of value, and
should be used by the Assessor in fix.
ing his estimates. What other tests
OF actual, true and fair ralue can be
set up?
But the Olympian says this will do
no good; that the ratio of taxation
will have to be increased so as to pro-
vide certain amount OF revenue to
pay necessary expenses. Aye, there is
the rub! What are niece ssary ex.
penses? No better mentor can be
employed than a knowledge that the
supply OF money is short, and the
people in earnest in their demands for
retrenchment. The Commissioners
would not dare to place the ratio at
the maximum, if elected OH the issue
proposed. There would be no fear of
reputation. The public business
would be done for what the people
could afford to pay, or in homely met
aphor, the cloth would be cut accord
ing to the measure"
Under every form of government,
and at all times, there are two classes
whose objects and aims are in direct
conflict: Those who are compelled to
pay the costs of government and those
who draw salaries therefrom. Those
who feed at the public crib are of
course determined to secure the best
provender possible, without any thought
OF the cost; while the taxpayers very
properly object to the payment OF
salaries that enables their recipient to
furnish his table and clothe his child
rem better than he can do.
There is no earthly reason why the
copiest or accountant should receive
larger pay than the man who handles
the pick or shoves the jack-plane.
One occupation requires NO higher
mental capacity than the other, and in
physical strength the odds are largely
in favor of the latter. The carpenters
expenses for clothing and board for
his family, costs as much as it does his
salaried neighbor; and it seems par
ticularly unjust that he should be
taxed to support other people better
than he is able to support his own
family.

PROTECTION OF THE ALASKAN
SEALs.-The Secretary of the Navy
has given orders for the formation of
the Behring Sea patrol, and the No
hican is already on the way to the
rendezvous. The Yorktown, the
Alert, the Rush, the Corwin and the
Bear will soon follow from San Fran
cisco, cruising slowly northward, pro-
tecting the herds, which are now mi
grating northward, from poachers.
The Ranger will join this fleet the lat
ter part of this month, and the Monte
vidio ten days later, the object being
to form a Gordon along the coast.
The Adams, now at Honolulu, will
meet the other vessels OF the fleet off
Vancouver May 1st, and the Concord
and the Petrol will leave Yokohama
soon and proceed directly to Ounalas-
ka to assist in protecting Bering Sea.
The armored ship Monterey will leave
San Francisco on the 18th inst, for
Puget Sound, where she will remain
all summer. She will not cruise to
any extent but be stationed near the
northern boundary OF the United
States for guard duty. These eleven
vessels will constitute the entire cruis-
ing fleet, and it is believed it will be
wholly efficient, without the aid of
England, which is pledged to mutual
aid.

THE MERIT BURT CORK ARTISTS.
The Make Their Appearance mt the
opera House before n Large
and Delighted Audience.

The minstrel performance last Friday
evening proved a great success in every
respect. In the afternoon the troupe,
decked out IN linen busters and high
hats, araded the streets behind the band
making such q professional like appear
ance that the average small boy felt certain
they were real Billy Emersons. Ben
Oottons and Primroses. The opera house
was beautifully decorated with cavalry
trappings. colors and national emblems,
which rather raised the already high an
ticipations Of the large audience regard
ing the coming entertainment.
The curtain was lifted in due season
and from beginning to the end every
song, joke and act elected hearty aud
well merited applause. George Vance
was interlocutor and his conversation
with Tambo Teal and Donovan, and
Bones White aud Hiscock gave opportun.
ity for some local sally or gag tina, kept
the audience in excellent humor. 1t
is hardly necessary to particularize when
all did 30 well and yet each member OF
the troupe merits complimentary notice.
The end men were all good and seemed
as much at ease as though they had fol.
lowed that calling all their lives. The
songs of Vance, Donovan, Teal, White,
Voorhees,, Swindlehurst and Macarthur
were excellent and each received
an encore. W. /. Wallace made
stump speech that brought down
the house, and the jig dancing Of
Bud Snyder was pleasing diversion
that made for him many admirers. OF
all the good things presented none was
superior to the Pullman Porter drill when
the cavalry boys showed their training to
splendid advantage. The two divisions
were led by Leutenants Scudder and His
cock, and every movement was like
clockwork. The entertainment closed
with a farce, written by L. E. Speuy.

broken off.
In the afternoon there began to be
feeling that serious trouble would likely
ensue, and difficulty between a mar
shal and commonwealth, in which the
former struck the latter over the head
with his cane, aroused the passions and
the Coxeyites made a rush for the mar
shall with threats of hanging, and the
representative OF Uncle Sam had to make
himself exceedingly scarce. Dispatches
had been sent off in both directions for
additional nlarshals, and the industrials
showed that they did not propose to give
ground by aiming themselves with
clubs. About . O'Clock eleven marshsls
arrived from the Columbia river bridge,
and at o'clock freight brought all of
the marshal forces from Ellensburgh and
dumped them above the mill. Then the
train pulled through the city at full
speed. The train on which the Coxey-
ties we're camped next backed to where
the marshals were and the officers
climbed aboard. Again the backing of
