There is little that is new in these
doldrum days. New fashions Just
now consist more in the new models
Of making up the goods already on
hand, than in new fabrics, for it is
too early for fall and winter goods,
except such as have already been
mentioned in these columns. Still,
there are few novelties, mostly in
small matters. Basque with sharp
points and position backs are com
ing in. Skirts will be gOred, but
none will measure more than four
yards and Il half around, and the
upper portion will be gathered or
laid in plaits, each being stitched
fat. For stout ladies the old regime
of many seams in the waist is in
vogue again. This will be a genuine
pleasure for such as are blessed with
a comfortable figure. There are
sometimes as many as ten seams.
These tend to give an appearance OF
slenderness to figure, which is
next best TO the reality. Princess
are also seen both for house and
street. For the house they are cut
with a demi-train, and for the street
they are walking length. Walking
dresses will be much shorter than
they have been, some of the finest
gowns being cut to clear the ground
three inches. This is one Of the new
ideas in the reform of dress; but
though ladies wore boomers fol
cycling, it is safe to say that if that
Invisible but potent goddess, called
fashion, had not decreed short dress
es, all the arguments of common
sense could not have wrought the
change.
In the gowns the empire styles
have the precedence, and they are
made as short in the waist and as
long in the skirt as those worn by
the Empress Josephine. There are
tea jackets, too, but these are made
with some faint points of resem-
blance to the Louis xvi jackets
These have revers and the full back
and smart vest front, and, in fact
they have the whole plan, only it is
exaggerated and then smothered and
stified in lace. The tea jackets have
immense bishop sleeves. This dis.
tinguishes them from nogligees
Some of the bishop sleeves have
deep pointed cuffs; and there is the
ripple collar to match, and these are
made of silk, velvet, or satin. A
variety of effects is afforded by max.
ing the cuffs and collars separate
from the garment, so as to transfer
them to different garments at the
will of the owner.
In belts the very narrow gift one
is still favorite, and so are the
leather ones, but the white kid belts
have fallen into disfavor somehow
The wide, stiff Swiss belt, with it:
jauntly points, has revived again
These are of dark silk or velvet, anC
they may be trimmed according tt
taste. The wide folded and drapeC
sash belt is in favor again, and Ions
sash ribbons are decidedly i'm
They are quite four or five. yard
long, and are tied 50 that the loops
fall nearly as long rs the ends. The
new skirts show a determination OF
the part of the modistes to hav,
narrow rufiies, scallops, slashes, EN-
broidery, or some other kind of foo
trimming.
Mohair is such a useful fabric tina
it is no wonder its popularity is al
most perennial For outing mohai

RPORATION TAXES.

If corporations in some cases
are having their taxation doubled,
it is under Legislation that was
enacted only after full discussion.
Therefore 1t is to be presumed
that the basis of taxation is as
fair as could have been devised,
especially when it is considered
that the corporations practically
dominated the Legislature. Under
SUI. circumstances the doubling
Of the taxes Of any corporation,
providing that the law is equitably
administered, would mean that
such corporation had hitherto only
paid half Of what it should have
paid, had there been fair
system Of taxation in vogue. 1t
is many years since attempts be-
gan to be made to have corpora.
tious taxed in something like due
proportion to their property, but
corporate influence was always
too powerful to allow the neces-
sary legislation to be effected un-
til now. Some of the largest own
ers of corporate capital admitted,
when the latest Legislation was
pending, that taxation had borne
with inequitable lightness upon
corporations. Before the recent
amendment to the tax laws,
however, there WAS an cutlery from
large number of taxpayers
against the arbitrary raising of as
sessment va 'uaIions. Before the
Appeal Board it was proved in
many cases that the assessors
were guided by no standard SO
much as 10y their own whims. Ii
the amended law will promote
equity and system in the leVying
OF taxes, it will be sustained by
the country at large regardless of
the resentment Of corporations.

Government. Men who have been
active supporters of the republican
regime from the first have been
discharged from the customs ser

they have challenged statement

they nor the public can get the

until some of them are got rid
of by that means, and then the
embargo is raised after a few
days. If the Legislature was
in session, Minister Damon
would be required either to give
reasons for these proceedings or
state why such reasons could not
be produced. This air OF mystery
surrounding the operation of the
public service cannot but have a
tendency to cause a weakening of
confidence in the administration of
any Department where it prevails.
Worse than that, it will be liable
to promote dishonesty in officials
holding positions of trust. When
they do not know the day nor the
hour when they may be incontin-
e2tly thrust out, without any
cause assigned for their dismissal,
their fortitude against temptation
to make hay while the sun shines
will need strong moral blacing.

Second-The improved plan

The terrible railroad disaster in Iowa
which caused the loss of at least thirty
lives is another of those calamities in
which the human element of careless
ness is the controlling feature. 1t mat
ters not whether the engineer of the
excursion or of the freight train or
the operator is in fault, somebody
blundered and innocent people paid
the penalty. 1t seems impossible with
all the precautions that can be used
and the automatic devices that are in
operation on railroads to prevent just
such disasters. In this case the or
Gers that were issued to those in
charge of the trains seem to have been
amply sufficient to guard against dan
ger, and yet those men rode blindly to
death and ruin.
