There was dance at Eddyvillt

night to the music of the Glas:

trouble to mar the enjoyment of the
entertainment. Each furnished his

own fancy.
The weather seems as though il
is trying to see how nice it can get
after so long rainy spell the last
winter, if you could call it winter,
and no cold weather that one could
call cold back east.

LAUREL GROVE, March @, 1894.
Nsssrs. Editors Il see by the Sun that
the Senate has passed a bill for reas.
sessment for Maryland, and according to
my judgment, should that bill become a
law, it would prove most disastrous
thing for the people Of our county. The
depression of the finances of the country,
low prices for our products, lower, per
haps. than ever was known before, causes
low prices for both real and personal prop
erty. especially in the counties, where
property has deprecated more, perhaps,
than 1t has in the cities, ana the bill
says property must be assessed at its cash
value. To do 30, according to the cash
sale of land lately sold In our county, il
would reduce the tax basis more than one
half of the present assessment Il IL true
we would save little on our State taxes,
but what would that be to compensate us
for the loss we might sustain in other ways?
Now, as the expenses Of our county must
be paid, and we have no other way of do

present basis reduced 10 one-half or less,
which necessarily would be the case, in
stead of our county taxes being ninety
three cents on the one hundred dollars as
at present, why, sirs, IL would be at least
double that amount; and with the mortgage
tax hitched TO il as rider. I fear our fall
from such an animal would be 50 great we
would never recover from the shock. With
the proposed assessment bill in force, who
would invest their capital in our county,

No, sirs, we could not get one dollar in

plorable thingi etour law makers pause
and think before il Is too late, for, accord
ing to my judgment we do not need any
assessment Of any kind at this time. Let
the finances of our county strzighten up q
little before any reassessnent. Do not Pile
up additional burdens upon our people.

Alexandria gazette. [volume] (Alexandria, D.C.) 1834-1974, 1894-07-11
Congressional.

In the Senate yesterday, as stated in
the GAZETTE of that day, Mr.. PETER,
in his speech in favor of his resolution
providing for government control of
railways and coal mines and the adop-
ton of the single-tax system, defended
the Chicago rioters, arranged Presi-
deOt Cleveland for sending troops there,
and protested against the growing
militarism of the country in general.
Mr.. Davis bitterly denounced the Law
lessness at Chicago and the policy OF
Mr.. PETER in intiaming the passions O:
the strikers by the introduction OF such
a resolution. Mr.. Davis referred to the
fact that in the South there is 10
trouble, and declared that as northern
man he felt ashamed to invite the con-
trast between the sections. Mr. Cor
don. of Georgia, also condemned the
action of Mr. PETER and pledged TO the
government the support Of all who
fought in the Confederate army. The
speech of Senator Gordon was al elo-
ouent appeal to the patriotism of all
American citizens, and manly decla-
ration Of fidelity 10 the government.
He cast aside both sectional and pol!,i-
ell feeling and discussed tae daEgers
that threatened the country from the
broad standpoint of craftsmanship. Mr..
Daniel introduced as a substitute for
the PETER proposition resolution en-
pbatically endorsing the President aud
declaring that the laws must beupheld.
This resolution seemed on the verge Of
passing when it went over on the OBJ
lection of Mr.. Gallinger. The postotiicc
appropriation bill was passed, as was
also the bill for the admission OF Utah
into the Union.
In the House bill was passed open
ing an Indian reservation in Utah and
restoring about 100000 acres to The
public domain. a bill forfeiting about
100000 acres ofland granted railroad
companies was discussed and went over
without action until to-day.
