THE ART OF REToUCH1NG.
Some OF the Wrinkles of PhOtog-
raphy Brought to Light In n -.
London Court.

Some wrinkles" of photography
were brought to light in the South
wark count. court, where aprofession-
al and all amateur fought out their dis
puted accounts, says the London Tele-
graph. According to the former, the
charge for retouching photo depended
upon the subjects face. His honor sug-
gested that if the physiognomy was a
long one it would cost more to retouch
the photograph than that Of person
with short, small -one, and an eXpret
agreed, adding that some people have
so many freckles or wrinkles that they
give lot of extra work. Judge Addi-
son said he supposed that in some cases
they had to take out such defects and
everything else a person didn't like in
order to make portrait acceptable, and
the professional concurred. Counsel
went even further and suggested that
not only had imperfections to be taken
out, but nonexistent beauty to be
added.
From this it may be gathered that,
while photography is witness of truth,
the artist is often a flatterer, and as
such expects to be paid. His honor
took the photograph in question and
gazed at it, and then had a good look
at the person present in court whom it
was supposed to represent. After. a
long inspection Of both he said that at
last he understood the art of retouch-
ing and gave the judgment, which
showed that he considered the laborer
was worthy OF his hire.

Those who are believers in the
theory'that idecadence,i Is the heritage
OF the American Indian, would do
well to study the Navajo tribe, says
the Albuquerque Citizen. In 1868
the tribe numbered 10000; today,
through natural increase, and not
through immig ration, there are now
$4,000 Navajoes, and every individual
member Of the tribe appears prosper
GUS. Many OF them are rich even in
the estimation of whitemen. 1t is
roughly and conservatively estimated
that the tribe has 1900, 900 sheep, 60,
600 head Of cattle. 100000 head Of
goats, and horses in such numbers as
to almost defy enumeration. Horse
flesh is indeed one Of the chief food
staples. The ponies, though not Of
poor stock, are unstable, even at SO
head. Their flesh is esteemed fully
equal to that of beef. A large per-
centage Of the wool crop is sold for

WEDNESDAY. OCTOBER il. 1893
MERE BLUSTER.

Governor Sadler and Controller
Davis were in Dayton last Saturday
to meet with the board OF equaliza-
ton Of this county. They have met
with several county boards this year
and it is stated that by their argu-
ments and advice the property valua-
man in this State has been raised
nearly Sl,OOO,OOO. If thus is the case
the $1,000 appropriated by the last
legislature has been well expended
il it has been all used. The effect Of
their suggestions In this county is not
noticeable, but may bear fruit in the
future. Many years ago the Times
advocated the doubling of The valua-
ton Of property in this State and the
halVing Of the rate of taxation. But
little attention WIS paid to the mat
ter then. Now, however, the entire
press Of the State is advocating the
same measure, and it will eventually
lie brought about. To do this, how
ever, a State Board of Equalization
will have to be created, which
shall have the same power of raising
and lowering the tax rate as the coun-
ty boards have now in their respec-
tive counties. The legislature should
also make law whereby all livestock
should be assessed at stated figure
in the different counties. Another
good law would be the increase of the
boards Of equalization to d larger
number-have it composed of citizens
OF the county and drawn In the
same manner as a grand jury. There
are many things to be thought of in
this contemplated change in the mode
Of taxation and we feel sure that good
results will come from the agitation
inaugurated by the Governor and
Controller, Lyon County Times.
While the INDEPENDENT believes
that considerable good will result
from the action Of the Governor and
Controller, 1t fails to see wherein
they have been instrumental in rails
ing the valuation Of the property in
the State. Tho assessment was made
before they started on their tour
through the State and they certainly
did not convince any board of equal
ization III the State that they had any
power to raise or equalize the value
OF property. The only good these
officers have accomplished, so far as
the INDEPENDENT is able to see, is to
start an agitation that may result in
the remodeling of our system Of tax
alton by the next Legislature. Any
claim that they have raised the valu.
alton one million dollars, or any other
sum is the merest buster.
The truth is that with the present
high State rate the boards OF equali-
cation would not have been justified
in raising the valuations this year nor
will they be next year This should
not be done until the system of taxa
ton is changed and power is lodged
somewhere to reduce the State rate
to correspond with tho increased val
uation OF property.
The INDEPENDENT will favor any
change in the present system that
will place the burdens of taxation
equally upon all classes Of property
i'll the State. Any other system
means confscatlon to the small tax.

Life is Lengthened

Chicago, May 16-The Tribune says: A
discovery. which it is claimed solves the
problem of circumventing old age, has
Just been made public by Prof. Joseph
r. Hawley and Alex C. Wiener of the
Chicago Clinical school. The return to
youth 1T is asserted. is produced by hypo-
dermc injections of lymphatic fluids of
animals, particularly young goats. The
discovery was made a year ago and SUBJ
subsequently, secret demonstration of it's
efficiency is asserted.
The general theory of the discovery is
that. if the mineral deposits which ac-
cumulate in the bones in the process of
life can be replaced with the life cells"
contained in the Emphatic glands of
goats. deterioration of the bones will be
prevented and the elasticity of youth will
be retained in the system much longer
In one of his experiments at the clinical
school, DIR. Hawley administered hypO-
dermic injections of the fluid from lynn
phatic glands of a goat TO a dog known
to be IA years OF age. A diagnosis of
portion of the femur before the injection
showed the bone contained large deposits
of phosphate carbonate and soda. The
dog was watched carefully for two
months. during which time frequent in
jections of the lymph compound were
made. At the end of that time another
diagnosis showed the larger part of the
mineral deposits had been removed and
the animal was as lively as a puppy. A

ARCHBISHOP IRE
LANDS VIEWS

New York. May ia dispatch to the
Journal and Advertiser from Paris
quotes Archbishop Ireland as saying:
"All civilized nations favor the UNDER
lying principles of The Hague confer
ence All intelligent men recognize that
international differences should be settled
upon an intellectual basis, whenever pos
sible. While l can not anticipate the
work of the delegates, and while it would
i'll become me to offer suggestions to
such a distinguished intellectual body
am free to say that there is no other
work so well calcula ted to bring happi-
ness to all nations as that with which
they are confronted. The piling up Of
huge armies is the bane of Europe. Most
countries have reached the straining
point in this respect, and unless remedy
be applied speedily, irretrievable ruin
stares them in the face. Civilization and
Christianity are concurrent forces which
could and should be made to stop the
spectacle Of nations arming themselves
to the teeth for the purpose of destroying
one another. Mind, I am not an advo-
cate of peace at any price. There are
times when war is unavoidable. Occa-
sions may even rise when war is as
lawful, as righteous, as holy as any Of
the wars of the crusades. When l was
in Rome l found everybody in favor Of
peace"

Right Rev. Thomas Clark, the venara ble
presiding bishop of the American house of
bishops, has been much annoyed by the
controversy over the Briggs matter,
has brought him a vast amount Of cor
respondence and many telegrams in re-
gard to a matter over which he thinks he
has no control. The bishop said HI did
not see what action he could take, if he
was desirous of aking any. The Ordina
ton of a priest was entirely matter of
local control There was a set precedent
and if it was carried out and the candl-
date for orders commended by the stand
ing committee, the bishop of the diocese
had no resource except to ordain M.e can
ddate. He thought that Bishop Potter
in this case had exercised wise discre-
ton and Judgment and that his letters ex-
planning his course We're very clear and
convincing In these views Bishop Nc
Vickar, who was present, concurred. In
answer to an inquiry whether resolutions
might not be passed in regard to the mat
ter Bishop McVickar said: 'They can
howl if they desire, but that is all that
it can amount to-" Bishop Clarke has also
been much disturbed over the Funston
matter. The Rev. J. B. Funston, Of
Portsmouth, Va, was to have been con-
secrated bishop of the diocese of Boise,
Idaho, but owing to the protest of eleven
bishops the order for conservation has
