ridicule the idea Of the single tax
theory, and then practice just that
plan. For the support of govern
ment, Of schools, and for the raising
of interests, and sinking funde, GER
tain fixed sums are required, and
must be raised by taxation. II per-
sonal property escapes, the land must
pay these amounts. In the matter OF
paying for the expense OF government
it seems to rs that all property should
bear it's just proportion. Under law
5000 of personal property IS exempt,
80 of course that much escapes. II
the assessors at their coming meeting
will fix the basis Of valuation of prop

March /, next, thousands of dollars OF
property will be taxed, the burden
distributed more equally, and justice
will be done to all. Will they have

lieved earnest Christians. During q
visit Of writer and wife he spoke free
ly of his resignation to the will of
God and felt;that he had saving faith
in his Saviour, he passed away in
peace lisping at intervals, the cleansing
blood that washes whittier than snow.
He leaves a wife and four children all

A STRONG argument for government
ownership Of railways is contained in
a report to the state department by
United States Commercial Agent
Moore at Weimar. He shows that
last year the gross receipts from
Prussian railways were $244 467174,
or more than half of the entire rev.
enues Of the state. The net earnings,
deducting 584 millions interest on
working capital and sinking fund,
were 81 millions, which will be turn
ed into the treasury for the use of the
state. This sum is larger than the
income derived from taxes of all

EDITOR HERALD-May 1 ask the
readers of your paper a few ques-
tions?
l. If a president and secretary of
the treasury refuses 10 pay coin, silver
and gold both as redemption money
on the national debt do they not VIC
late their oath Of Office?
2. If a congressman votes to use
one and not both money metals as
redemption money, does he not VIC
late his oath to support the Cohstitu-
ton of the United States?
3 What is to hinder bankers from
taking out gold aud greenbacks from
any money that may be passing
through their hands and replacing
them with their own bank notes and
then hording the gold and greenbacks
to speculate off of the government?

Some time ago at the request OF a

NEXT week the county assessors
meet to fix the basis of valuation
upon real and personal property.
For years past it has been the custom.
to assess property at about one-fourth
its actual value, and then to; allow the
5000 exemption from the total fourth
value OF personal property. By this
system a vast amount of taxable
property escapes its just burden. We

The republican congressional COM
mittee met at Colby Tuesday, and
fixed Hill City as the place Of holding
their congressional convention, and
May 18th as the date. During the
past two weeks several changes have
been made in the number of candi'
dates, as William Simpson Of Norton,
and W. s. Tilton of Osborne, have
Withdrawn from the race. From the
best information we can get at present
A. II. Ellis of Mitchell, w. A. Reeder
Of Phillips, and Judge Smith OF
Stockton, are the only avowed candi-
dates. Mr.. Tilton's withdrawal should
be especially gratifying to the popq-
lists, as he is about the strongest man
yet mentioned, though Judge Smith
Of Stockton, is to be feared, Phillips
county will be for Mr., Rseder first,
Judge Smith next, but strongly OPP
posed to Mr.. Ellis.

TOWN OF VLADIvOsTOK.
Street Scenes That Are Characteristic
of Russian Life.

Street Scenes That Are Characteristic
of Russian Life.
From the FortnghtIy Review
Vladivostok has the aspect Of an inferior
Hongkong. Of about q quarter the size
Hills crowned with forts rise around 1t up
to heigh. Of 800 feet. 1t lies on the south
side OF peninsula twenty miles Ions, call
ed Maravief Amursky, in 43 degrees min
utes 81 seconds north latitude, and 131 de-
gIees A minutes 21 seconds east longitude
The town Is between four and five miles
long, but is struggling and unconnected
and of no breadth. Some streets are very
steep and all are horribly dusty in dry
weather, being never watered, and being
continually crossed in all directions by
droshkas driven at a smart pace. In
stead of pavements the streets have "side-
walks" Of planks, as commonly seen in
new American cities. You take six stout
planks, some twenty-five feet long, and
lay them side by side, and you continue
the process for the requisite number of
versts of miles three Versts are two miles,,
and the Sidewalk Is complete, save for
a. few props and nails, where the ground is
holes.
The droshkas are driven by red-headed,
snub-nosed Russian izvozchiks in low,
glazed, stovepipe hats. with very curly
and high boots. In them one often sees,
lolling as passengers, a couple Of frowsy
Chinese, or a still frowsier Corean. The
fare is only eighty kopeks, one shilling
and eighteenpence, an hour, or over half an
hour: and from point to point there are
terpenny and tlvepenny fares, according to
distance. The regulations forbid charging
more. but. with fine irony, allow the driver
Ito take less. If he likes" He may not
leave his cab to take care Of itself, may not
"sing. make a noise, or cause q disturb
ance;' he must temper his pace to town
trot" and keep to the right-hand side of
the road"
The troika has dashing look; the horse
In the middle trots under the arched duga,
whose object and effect, when properly put
on, Is to keep the shafts at the same dis
tance apart The small horses right and
left are csntering, and their bodies incline
a little outward from the car. In Vladivos-
tok are few complete triple teams; gener-
ally there are only the middle horse" trot-
ting and one other cantering on it's near
side.
The water barrel on wheels, drawn by
horse or bull, and often driven by SOL
dier, is frequent sight, carrying water up
to the forts and to the upper town. A
funnier horse vehicle is the sit-astride
cushioned beam, on which izvozchik and
cloaked and spurred officer sit, with dan

A Story About Woman That f.

From the Chicago Evening Post.
"She is a remarkable woman" said the
man who was meditatively smoking a cigar.
of the kind"
been reading a newspaper. Except In the
eyes of lovers there are duplicates to all of
them"
'Ah, but you don't know this one" pro-
tested the man with the cigar. why, wo-
myself She has no equal"
''Where did you meet her?''
I'm an L road station"
Not a very romantic place"
mo; but you should have seen what she
did"
"Tell me about it,"
''Well, there was a big crowd, and she was
ahead of me in the line trying to get up TO
the ticket office OF course. / hate TO have a
woman ahead of me at a ticket window
when I'm in hurry, and was saying all
sorts of uncomplimentary things about her
to myself when she got to the window"
And then?'
"why, then I was struck dumb with
amazement. She had a nickel In her hand"
In her hand!'
That's what / said.''
do you mean to tell me she didn't wait
until she had reached the window TO get her
purse out of her pocket and hunt through
it for nickel or five penuies?'
Il do"
The man who had been reading broke into
a loud laugh.
IF you are ever on the witness stand and
/ want to break the force of your tesu-
mony," he said, Il shall recall this little
tale to show that you are not a man of truth
and yeracity."
