message will come as an exposition of
their own ideas and a demonstration of
the truths which they hold at heart if
they never before found them expressed
in such forcible and fitting words.

A BLESSING to the County.
From the New York Post Qnd).

1t is a blessing to the country that we
have a President capable of holding up
the truth before congress and the people
in this manly way. His term of office is
more than half finished, and he will soon
take his place in the walks of private
life, but this message makes an inefface-
able record in the interest of sound money
and business stability.

AIurder Not suicide.

ASHLAND, Wis, May 7.-Martin
Thrush was found fatally wounded in his
house early on the morning of April 90,
and up to within an hour of the funeral
it was supposed to bea case of suicide.
Then it was discovered that the man
suspected of the murder was a member
OF the jury of inquest. The jury was
thereupon dismissed, and the suspected
man, Casper Emmett, together with
Thrush's widow, was arrested.
The Thrushes came here from Mich
igan about eight years ago. Two years
previously, while working in the lumber
district, Thrush had married one Kit
tie' Sweet. She is now the widow of
Thrush. According to the story told by
the widow to neighbors who came in
after the discovery of Thrush's uncon-
scious body in the attic, the couple spent
the evening out. Shortly after mid
night she heard her husband get out of
bed and 60 to the attic. A moment
later she heatd a shot and a fall.
Thrush died 48 hours later. without re-
gaining consciousness. Arrangement
for the funeral on Wednesday were com
plete when the doctors decided that il
they were to testify at the inquest they
would want more exact information than
they had secured, and the coroner order
ed the funeral postponed until post
mortem could be held. When the jury
reassembled, the doctors reported that
what had externally appeared to be a
buliet-hole was in reality wound made
by blunt instrument, and that the
skull had been fractured.
Meanwhile it had been discovered
shat Emmett, one of the jurors, boarded
with Thrush, and during the recess Em-
NETT had been observed talking earnest
ly with Mrs. Thrush, and some of the
words which were caught confirmed the
suspicious already aroused and the ar
rests followed.

York created quite an excitement in
public circles at Washington. Officers
OF the treasury department are disposed
to be reticent concerning the gold syn
dicate of New York purchasing gold bull
lion of western smelters at rates higher
than those paid at the mints. They adj
NIT that the receipts at the mints had
sensibly diminished ever since the con-
tract for the purchase for gold bonds
was awarded to the Belmont Morgan
syndicate, but it is evident that for
some time past the treasury has been
compelled to pursue policy Which will
assist the syndicate in delivering gold in
accordance with the terms OF the recent
bond sale contract.
Another feature of the affair lies in
the fact that the production of gold in
the United States has increased to such
an extent as to make it an object for
this foreign syndicate to corner or con-
troll the gold market, and inasmuch as
the Belmont Morgan syndicate obtained
not only the privilege of purchasing
these bonds, at very low figure, but a
monopoly of all bonds issued between
now and next October at the same rate,
it is clear that from the high price they
obtain on the sale of the gold bonds
abroad they can. afford to pay pre-
MUM for gold bullion over and above
the rates fixed at the mints. In this
way the syndicate obtains practically a
monopoly OF the gold product of the
United States, and particularly the
product in Colorado, where the increase
in gold production has been SO large in
the last year or two. The treasury
seems to be entirely in the hands OF the
syndicate. It must have gold to main
tain it's reserve even if it practically
cripples the purchasing operations of
the mints.

Any one who has ever had an attack
of infammatory rheumatism will rejoice
with Mr.. J. A. Stumm, 220 Boyle
Heights, Los Angeles, over his fortunate
escape from a siege of that distressing
ailment. Mr.. Stumm is foreman of
Merrian's confectionery establishment.
Some months ago, on leaving the heated
work room to run across the street on an
errand, he was caught out in the rain.
The result was that when ready to go
home that night he was unable to walk,
owing to oinfammatory rheumatism. He
was taken home, and on arrival was
placed in front of good fire and
thoroughly rubbed with Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. During the evening and
night he was repeatedly bathed with this
liniment, and by morning was relieved
of all rheumatic pains. He now takes
especial pleasure in praising Cham ber-
lain's Pain Balm, and always keeps q
bottle of it in the house. For sale by

Assessment of real Estate.

This is an important subject, worthy
of careful consideration, so that fair
ness and equity may be maintained.
And as the assessors will soon enter on
their duties in that direction, it were
we'll to have some carefully and hon
estly considered policy, according to
which assessments are to be fairly and
honestly made, so shat all may receive
correct assessments. According to our
observations and assessors books. there
is too much discrepancy in the assess
ments of lands. Some is assessed at
about it's real value, others at about
half or less, and others at about two
thirds of its real value. There is moth
ing fair or Just about this to the tax
payer.
This would be fair and right-to as
sess real estate up to it's actual. real
value, and all taxpayers would then
pay taxes equally in proportion to
what they have; and one would not
have to pay twice as much in proper
ton to what he has as another one
does, which is unjust. If the real estate
throughout Virginia or any other State
were assessed at its honest or just value,
or even double as much as it is now,
the taxpayers would not necessarily
need to pay more taxes than they have
to pay now. The per cent on the 800
could be reduced just one half, unless
a larger amount is now required to de
fray the expenses of the State economi-
cally administered. l. property were
assessed honestly at its real, ordinary,
or general value, it would be better for
the property owners,-they would not
be required. according to the record.
to sail under false colors. The record
would show their real value. And this
itself would prove decided advantage.
1t would show the value of the coun
try. This would prove a real benefit
to the State and every property owner.

Stopping a Paper.
AN ANECDoTE OF HORACE GREEDY
WHICH HAS A MORAL.


A story told of Horace Greedy relates
that an acquaintance of his got Of
Tended at one of his articles in the
Tribune, went to the Office and put an
end to his subscription. Later IN the
day he met the editor and said: Mr..
Greeley, I've stopped your paper
Have you queried Horace adding,
Well, that's too bad, and the old white
hat went its way. Next morning
Greedy encountered his former sub
scriber again and accosted him with i:
l thought you had stopped the Tribune
So did. Then there must be some
mistake, replied Horace, for | just
came from the Office and when | left
the presses were running as usual, the
clerks were as busy as ever, the com
positors were hard at work and the
business was going on the same as
yesterday and the day before. Oh !
CALCULATED the old subscriber, / didn't
mean that | had stopped the paper :
l stopped only my copy of it because l
didn't like one of your editorials
Pshaw retorted Greeley, it wasn't
worth taking up my time to tell me
such trifie as that. My dear sir, if
you expect to control the utterance of
the Tribune by the purchase of one
copy a day, o. if you think to find any
newspaper worth reading that will
never express convictions at right
angle with yonr own, you are doomed
to disappointment. The Tribune
would not be deserving of respect if it
could be coerced by the threat of the
loss of one subscriber, or hundred, or
ten thousand, or every one it has, to
refrain from telling the truth as it sees
it. Ny friend. this is a free country
and the man who does not give free
dom of opinion to others does not de-
serve it himself. Good by.
