BOARD OF EQUALIZATION.

The County Commissioners met on Mon
day last Board of Equalization to con-
slider the assessment roll for the current year
After short sitting, an adjournment was
taken till Tuesday at 10 o'clock, at which
time the roll was carefully considered with
the result that not single cause appeared
for correction. Thus no heart rendings will
occur this year over raised assessments.
County Assessor Prudential, in view Of
the general hard times, permitted volun-
tary reduction on all classes of property OF
ten per cent on last years valuation. This
met with general approval and the assess
ment for the year is 1913, 706 10. This
amount shows on the assessment roll All in
crease of S35, 1872 10 over last year. The
Assessor explained to the Board that it was
caused by double assessment, the main
one being that of 100000 against the
way Company, which property is assessed to
w. j. Dooley in trust for Lincoln County.
This double assessment was made for the
reason that judgment was taken against the
railroad for the amount of taxes and cost
and as the time does not expire for its re.
demption unsl the first Of November next
it is held in trust by the County Treasurer
for the county. Should the Railroad Co.
pay the taxes and no assessment be made
against the Oregon Short Line 4 Utaf
Northern Railway they would escape taxa
ton for this year, and to avoid this h'
made the double assessment. The tru'
value of the assessment roll compared witt
that of last year shows reduction 0
$54, 976.26. And the actual amount upol
which revenue will be derived for the yea
1894 is in round numbers LITTLE owe
$4,000

that none of the reports of the State Silver

Of 2Ol delegates, less than two score were
represented by proxy. The best of the States

The convention was representative; its
action harmonious; its platform is broad and
comprehensive; feeling of qualification
over its ticket justties every hope of ulti
mate victory in November. There are no
soreheads, no Ratchet dug up. Good will
and unification characterize the chrystal-
zing sentiment.
Tho delegates and nominees spent the
closing hours of the afternoon in handshak-
ing and congratulations.
As a new body without old time trained
leaders much new and vigorous blood has
been infused into the party, In no sense
was there a slate. In no-wise was boss
influence apparent. The honors fell where
party fealty, and personal integrity pointed.

like serious disagreement might not ma
terialize, but the hope has been frac-
tured Into many fragments by the nominal
ton of an independent democratic ticket;
ticket strong enough to corral a very large
percentage Of the democratic votes. A lit
tie later another potent influence was
started to work, when the county conven-
ton of the state democracy met at Cooper
Union, where it reaffirmed its adherence
TO democratic principles, condemned the IL
liberal policy adopted by the Saratoga con-
vention toward loyal and consistent demo-
Gratis, put itself on record as opposed to
machine methods, denounced Tammany
Hall, and accepted the nomination Of
William l.. Strong for mayor of New York
city. Mr.. Strong is republican and the
choice OF the Committee of Seventy; which
organization has devoted Itself to the diff
hcult but far-from- hopeless task of crush
ing Tammany out of existence. The con-
test in New York promises to be more ex-
citing and more significant this year than
any campaign of recent date.

The LeXow Committee has done its best
to protect those who have testified before
1t as to misbehavIcr by New York City
policemen, but in spite of the fact that any
thing like bulldozing must necessarily be-
come known to the public, several policemen
have been endeavoring to make things very
uncomfortable for such witnesses as they
could reach. a month or two ago it was be-
heyed that the force might be purified by the
removal of at least two members of the
board OF commissioners, about half of the
captains. and perhaps a hundred officers of
lower degree. Tie manner in which wit
nesses nave been annoyed, however, makes
1t evident that there is conspiracy which
Termeates deeply the entire organization.
Before Mr.. Goff gets through with the work
he has in hand, New YoTk's police force win
probably lose three or four hundred of its
members.

There has been complete failure on the
part OF employing bakers in this city to
produce any reason for their persistent
opposition to reduction in the price Of the
bread now retailed To the consumer for five
cents per loaf Ample opportunity has been
Afforded conspicuous representatives of the
bread-making industry to defend them
selves, but the evident weakness deyeloped
in the bakers case by the one or two feeble
defensive efforts is testimony strongly
favorable either to a decrease in the selling
priGs- or considerable addition to the
quantity Of the loaf. No rational being can
or does object to a reasonable profit on
bread. but the present profit is unreason-
ably great: is certainly - per cent in the
wholesale department, while in those cases
where retail purchasers procure their bread
directly from the baker it is more than 10
per cent. These profits would not be
regarded IA exorbitant in many lines Of
business, especially where a stock has to be
held for months or even years; but in the
bakery business, where the stock is ex-
hausted and renewed at least three hundred
and sixty-iive times in a year, 1t has the
appearance Of being excessive, especially
at such a period as this, when money is
undoubtedly much more than ordinarily
scarce. The bread-baking business fourished
in Washington when -four was from six to
ten dollars per barrel; II would not suffer
II its profits moved on a line parallel with
the price OF flour, which is now being pur-
chased by the bakers for $3.50 per barrel

In regard to the future of the Chinese
empire proper and for her own share of the
spells, Japan should and undoubtedly will
insist on being heard with strong and
powerful voice. She alone will have the
right to take the lead in the reformation and
the reconstruction of the great empire which
she Is fast bringing to terms She has borne
the Sta ndard of western civilization through
Corea into China, and she should be allowed
without hindrance on the part of interested
European powers, with the advice and SYM

TO lift up her benighted neighbor into the

in order.
