The Advance In Rates.

Theoretically at least the individual
must be consulted by the state in the
fixing of the tax levy. When the rail
roads arbitrarily advance freight rates
they exercise power which the Anglo
Saxon people have ever zealously with
held, exen from kings and governments
The readers OF The Spokesman Re
view will pick up their paper this morn
ing and be advised thereby that thu
transcontinsntal railroads have, with
out notification, without consultation
without application to any commission
or officer of the state or national govern
ment, agreed among themselves to levy
additional tax upon the people of this
CITY and section. There seems to be OK
ceptions to the rule that it takes two to
make bargain.
The general managers seek to justify
this course by pleading their inability,
under the previous rates, to make both
. Dis meets. That is to say, the railroads
are to have special privileges in these
tam OF general loss and pinching,
Both euds with them must meet. even
though thereby, for thousands of Others,
it is made still more difficult to make
ends meet,
There is, however, one thing to be
raid in favor of tits latest ADVANCE in
rates. 1t puts little higher the barrier
between this section ard the manufac-
terers of the east, and to that extent en-
ceurages and builds up home industry.
II rates are high on eastern cheese, but
ter, egg, poultry, pork, products, etc
there is the compromising thought that
a better market will be provided for the
farmers OF this section.
The people understand this aud will
not be disposed to quarrel With the rail
roads for levying high transcontinenta

Corn in the PaIouse Country.
Palouse New,


People should not be surprised if the
yellow corn wavee on the thousand bills
of the Paouse in few short years. The
tassled crop has as vet been grown In
this country only IN gardens, but has
been a uniformly successful crop in this
way. Over one hundred acres will be
planted this season IN the vicinity of
Palouse Severed farmers will put IN
twenty acres for fattening hogs and for
stock fodder A number of others will
experiment with from one to ten acres
If it is found that corn can be cheaply
and successfully grown it will, in years
to come, largely sapplant the cultivation
of wheat, unless tie price of this cereal
should wonderfully improve and the ex
pense of harvesting it be curtailed.
While the Palouse country can never
hope to as successfully grow corn as can
the celebrated corn states OF the middle
west on account of the cool summer
nights, experiments enough in a small
way hays been made in this ,eglon to
prove that as a fodder crop it is entirely
reliable even here. The cost Of produc-
ton is, OF course far below that of wheat,
which is a strong argument IN its favor
and will go far towards inducing the peo
pie to grow it.

 .4 Comparatively Dull. New York March 2S.-Speculation at the stock exchange to-day was com paratively dull. The falling off in bus mess was the result of the indisposition of operators to enter into new engage ments pending definite action by the an thracite coal presidents. It was not expected however, that the presidents could solve the knotty questions at issue at one, session and consequently no disappointment was felt

Jersey Central fell from 94 to 93k, and rose to 94h@94ss. Heading sold down from 131s to 129s, re- turned to 1872 and left off at 1874. Sus- quehanna and Western rose % to 1S, and preferred % to 35B.

] about the beautiful church of the "Ges- uiti" (Jesuits); this is a very large and magnificent edifice, it is lined through out with marble inlaid with verde an tique" which presents a most glorious effect. The celebrated painting by Iii l tian, the "Martyrdom of St. Lawrence hangs resplendent here, there is also an Assumption" by Tintoretto in this church. At the high altar are ten spir- al columns of encrusted mosaic, these are ranked among the finest works in Italy. There are similar spiral tuted columns in the Jesuit church "Gli Seal zi', now the railroad station on the Grand canal All churches of the Jes- uit order have their interiors sumptu- ously decorated with encrusted mosaic and finely wrought marbles.
 i One church I will mention before close this letter. The church of ''St. Maria Zobenigo" was built in 1880 by the rich and influential Barbaro family. They were merchants and lived in the Palazzo Barbaro on the Grand canal, directly opposite the academy. On the great columns in front of this church are, marble statues of distinguished members of this family, and below are plans or outlines cut in marble of Corfu, Rome, Padua, Caudia and Zara. Nav al battles are also represented in stone, and full rigged ships of large size com ing and going under full sail are hand somely carved in marble which once was white. That great family have dis appeared root and branch, the grand old church remains to keep their name alive.
 I have written four long letters con- corning Venice, but have only touched upon the border land of this magic city.
 To give even a fair impression of this singular city, many letters would be nec- essary, even then not one half of the story would be told To know Venice one must see Venice, he must thread the waters of the Grand canal, and creep along the marrow side canals and lanes, he must enter it's churches and visit the fairy islets of the blue Lagoon, he must view Venice while the sun beats upon it at monday, turning it's church and pal aces into go1d, he must revel in its beauty while the full moon rides high in the heavens as it throws it magic light over the whole city, wrapping it in perfectly celestial environment.
 Then and then only will he feel that he knows this glorious city, glorious in 1t past history, glorious in its successes and defeats, and still glorious in the calm sadness of it's present decadence.
 VIATOR.
 Note:-I have mentioned but a score of the more than one hundred churches of Venice They are all deeply interest ing When we consider that there are no less than 800 churches in Rome, Ma pies and Florence, and thousands of churches in all Italy, filled with trophies of beautiful art, let us be thankful that the Romish, church of the past and pres ent has achieved such triumphs of ex- quisite taste as to keep alive the ser vice of God In temples which seem not to have been made of human hands. The beauty of combination of architec- ture, with the wonderful results obtain ed by the sculptor, painter and wood carver, seems to indicate an intimate direction from the, great Architect of the world itself V.

An attempt to commit double
murder by a Miss Dora Hsilwagen
at Quincy a few days since, recalls
the famous tragedy of IL years ago
in Rock Island county, for which
Heilwagen was hung. The Quincy
crime; it ,r is probable ashr was =;
the hung man, as his family
moved there after he paid the pep
atty for the murder. But neither of
his daughters names yer Dora
that being the murdered woman's
name. Here's what an ex-
change says of the Quincy affair:
Dora Heilwagen. a young woman OF
Quincy, prompted by jealousy, made
q murderous attack upon Mrs. Chef
~Swearingen and Henry Boiling. both

used a S2-calibre revolver aud shot

Mrs. Swearingen in the back of the
head and through the meek. Boiling
is not badly hurt, but Mrs. Swearin.

The would-be murderer made her
escape. but afterward surrendered to
the authorities, confessed that she
attempted murder and was locked
up.n

There was a cowardly and brutal
scene on the ferry boat yesterday af-
ternoon. Gus Waldburg and Gus
Olson live in Moline, where they are
employed by Deere & Co. They
both went to Davenport to celebrate
Labor day. When fairly organized a
quarrel commenced between them
and the sidewalk was adjourned to
to have it out. Police interference
was intimated and they started
down to the ferry landing at a lively
gait. On the boat Waldburg. who is
much larger than his companion,
renewed the argument, and raising a
heavy cain struck Olson in the head
near the car. from which the blood
came profusely. Olson was cared
for and both left the bost-Waldburg
without arrest, when he should have
been given a dose of his own mcdi-
cine.

CITY HAS NO COIN.
Already Borrowing Money to
Pay Running Expenses.
BRILLIANT REPUBLICAN FIGURING.

Augusts Indebtedness Exceeds the
Amount ON Hand $1,000, and the
Mayor and Committee Are Instructed %
Make . Touch.
The city is presenting another IL
lustration of brilliant republican
financiering. Last nights session Of
the council was unusually short, but
just long enough to disclose the sur
prising phase of the municipalities
financial condition-the amount al
lowed exceeded the funds on hand
and the mayor and finance commit
tee were authorized to negotiate a
loan sufficient to compensate the
various debtors. This is q state Of
affairs unknown in recent years and
only too plainly asserts the incom-
pentency Of the present administra-
ton. Last evenings ordinance
called for the payment of expenses
amounting to $l6.672.65. $3.50 OF
which was PAYABLE on the water
works pump. This leaves the ex-
penses for August $11,422. 65-ex-
ceedingly high. Compelled to bor-
row money at this early date
places the city in a pretty predica-
ment, and as there are no revenues
collectable for a considerable time,
touching" is the only alternative
until license-holders begin renewals.
No Revenues Until November
1t will be necessary for the city to
continue this operation until No
vember. at least. when the saloon
keepers will come to the re.cu with
their semi-annual mites-aggregat-
ing about $4,000. Even when this
arrives the city will be further in the
mire than at present, according to
the manncr in which money was gone
through during August. September,
October and November with a re-
spective outlay of $11,422.6 IS, will
aggregate an Indebtedness of $34,-
267. 95, and attached to Augustus de-
ficienly will increase it to $4l, 2S7. IS.
Applying the saloon license there
will still remain a deficiency Of $685.
