One of the most benefcent of the CO.
operative plans that during recent
years have sprung into such favor is
the building and loan association The
recent report of the Hen. Carroll D.
Wright, chief of the national labor
bureau, gives very encouraging sta
tistics regarding the growth of these
associations. Every state in the Union
now has them. Pennsylvania contains
more than a thousand, Ohio more than
seven hundred, then follow in order,
Illinois, Indiana. New York and Mis-
souri,. In the south these associations
are even more popular than in New
England, undoubtedly because New
England contains more savings banks.
The country, on the whole, contains
six thousand OF these savings &ssocia-
tions, and less than one-twelfth of
them are more than fifteen years Old.
Notwithstanding that, they represent
a saving of $3.50, 00O, eco, and Mr. Wright
gives it as his opinion that 10000
homes havs been built with their help.
How much that means of added bless
ing to the world

1t is the custom OF gold standard or
gans to hold Mexico I'D as an awful ex-
ample of free silver. Out OF the mouch
OF one of them, the Bankers Monthly,
comes tbs: There seems to be a re-
markabie financial development going on
in Mexico. A number of the great for
eign banks have been locking into that
field and several OF them have arranged
for important branches, tine most not
able being branch Of the Deutsche
bank. The Bank OF London which is 10
Gated in the CITY OF Mexico is aDouG to
increase its capital from 50, 000,G00 to $780,
0eOGO. The particularly noticeable 1ea-
ture of this movement is that the new
capital is TO be subscribed by local
financial interests. The large dry goods
houses and textile manufactures VIII be
chiefly Interested in the increased
capital There is no denying the fact
that Mexico. half civilized as she is, has
been in a highly prosperous condition for
years and that her future is still more
promising. The Mexico bugaboo is as
worthless for scare purposes as any OF
the others-Anaconda. Standard.

DUCKS AND BRAKES.

A man who wrote to Forest and

OF the ducks he had killed were brakes
-four brakes to one female-and he
wanted to know the reason why. Others
promptly said they had observed SINH
lar preponderance of brakes, and also
wanted 70 knew why. One man told
how he had seen one female duck
chased by four or five males. He had
killed forty-five in spring days shoot

males.
Thus far no explanation has been
given of the matter.

BEFORE DECENTRALIZATION.

Before characterization both
metals constituted the redemp-
ton money of the world; and as
bo,h metals existed in about
the same quantities, it gave us
twice as much money of re-
demption as gold alone will now
furnish US. There is in the world
now, according to the report of
the director of our mint, $3,727,-
O1S,S69 in gold, and $500, 571, 346
in silver. The dislocation of the
parity of the two metals by the
decentralization OF silver, and
the attempt to maintain our
credit in gold, has reduced the
redemption money of the world
from 1851. 59O.215 to $3,727,O1
500, or a little less than one
half the original amount

DAVIS COUNTY DoINGs.
Action of the State Board of Equa

Action of the State Board of Equal
izRtion Creates IL Rumpus
KAYSVILLE, Aug. 15.-The action
! OF the state board of equalization in
deciding to add $SS9,717 to the assessed
valuation Of real estate in Davis coun-
ty. is causing a great amount of un-
favorable comment ali over the coun-
ty. An addition of 25 per cent to the
valuation, together with the inevita BILE
increase in the percentage that will be
made to support the state govern
ment, will make taxes in this county
altogether too heavy to be borne. The
farmers and land owners in this COM
munIty have hard struggle at best
to meet their obligations, and they
look with apprehension upon any ac-
llon upon the part of the state board
that will tend TO increase their bur
GenS.
The county commissioners, who are
men OF ripe experience in such mat
ters, give 1t as their opinion that the
present valuations are all that the
people can stand. In their statement
TO the board Of equalization they
make the assertion that the unore-
cedented low price Of fruits, vegetables.
nay and grain makes taxes a burden
Tor farmers to bear under present val
uauonS, and should a raise be made
1nSre VIII be q great many who can
not meet the pressure, and their prop
erty viii necessarily go to tax sales"
Other conservative men are making
the same prediction and are supple
msnting it with the assertion that in
many lnstances-perhaps in a majority
OF cases-the property could not be
cashed under a forced sale for the
amount at which the board proposes
to fix the valuation. Under these con-
ditions the unjustness of such an in
crease is manifest.
1t is the same with the mercantile
valuation, on which an increase Of 90
per cent is proposed In the assess
ing OF some OF the largest mercantile
houses in the county the valuation
was made at the actual figures shown
by the latest inventory of their stock,
and one concern has offered to sell at
discount of 10 per cent from the
amount for which they are assessed.
raise of the proposed 20 per cent
will cause these business houses to pay
taxes on 20 to 80 per cent more than
the cash value of their property.
These conditions have been presented
to the board by the county commits
sioners and some others who went
before them and entered objections to
the increase, and considerable interest
is manifested in the final action of
the board 1t is hoped and believed
that they will not adhere to their orig
inal intention of making such an ex-
orbltant increase Of valua tons.

A DESTRUCTIVE FIRE.

A thresh' ing machine belonging to
Thomas Harris & Sons of Layton was
entirely consumed by fire this morn
ing while threshing wheat at Mrs.
Mary Layton's. near Syracuse June
ton. A grain stack that is thought
TO have contained about 15o bushels
of wheat was also destroyed. The
cause of the fire is q matter of conjec-
ture merely. Some claim that it was
caused by the explosion of a cartridge
that in some way had been dropped
in the grain stack, and there are others
who attribute the origin of the blaze
to the friction Of the cylinder teeth
or the dropping OF rock in the cylin-
der Of the machine. At any rate, the
fire started inside of the separator and
so rapidly did it gain headwav thar
the straw stack and machine were a
mass of flames before anything could
be done to save either. The loss is
about $3.50 on the machine and per-
haps 500 on the grain, which latter
was the property of widow, who is
totally unable to bear such a loss.
