STATE AND LOCAL TAXATION.

Governor Roosevelt has con tributed to the tax reform tenden- cy of the time the impetus of a declaration to tho New York legi- stature that the taxation of fran chises should be by the state, and, in general, that the state should assess and collect all forms of special and license tax. There is no doubt that the assessment and collection of all forms of franchise tax, railway, telephone companies, gas and electricity and street car lines. and also all peculiar tax ation, as that of banks and in surance schemes and licenses, such as for the sale of liquor, would tend to equalize these forms of taxation and tighten the burden of public expense where it now rests with unjust weight.

THE ALTON AND THE ..pEE GEE. ,

We sec it reported that there is a probability that the Chicago & Alton Ky, may become the own CT of the Pittsburg & Gulf. or at least, that there is a strong desire on the part of the Alton officials to own this road so as to secure an outlet to the gulf. This change Is not expected to occur until the r. X G. gets out of the hands of the receivers, which will not be many months hence. A dispatch from Chicago to the Kansas City Journal, among other things, says of this proposed change: s'Presi- dent Hartman arrived here today and was closeted with $. w. For dyce, receiver of the Kansas City, Pittsburg X Gulf; s. M. Felton, receiver of the Queen & Crescent road who came to report the re- suits of q recent inspection by them of the Kansas City, Pitts burg & Gulf railroad and it's af- fairs. President Hartman is a member of the reorganization committe and it is said to be his desire to obtain control of the road and make it an outlet for the Alton to the Gulf. Mir. Felton was employed recently as an ex- pert by k. H. Hartman & Go. to look into the affairs of the Gulf road. The examination made by *him and Mir. Fordyce is said to
 ave resulted in a recommendation
 lat tho purchase of the road un-
 er certain conditions would
 rove a good investment"
 1t is also understood that the Missouri Pacific railroad is inter ested in this proposed deal; off
 cials of this road being part own CTS of the Alton. The Missour Pacific IS seeking an outlet fo Igrain shipments to the Gulf, als' an entry to Chicago, and by con hecting the Alton and the F. q G. 1t secures both these object and increases its facilities for bus Eness.

uNwIsE, UNPATRIoTlc.

While it may be of no concern to the public or those not directly connected, we cannot help but think that the proposition to get up dinner in honor of Admiral Dewey to cost S100 a plate as be- ing in very poor taste and unwlse. Such a course smacks too much of snobbery and aristocracy and is clearly out of place in a govern ment like this when it is to be in honor of an officer of the govern ment. It shows that through the manipulations or efforts of our very wealthy people the nation is drifting away from the time hon ored principles of simplicity wherein the governing power, or the officials, have been accustomed to keep in close touch with the people.
 It shows q dcslre to ape the prohigate methods and customs of the titled nobility of foreign coun- tries and a desire to erect barrier between an aristocracy of wealth and those whose labor creates the wealth and sustains our govern ment, since none but the very wealthy can have part or parcel in such demonstration.
 It is the first time in the history of this country that such proposi- tion to squander money at feast that must be semi official in its character has ever been proposed and in our opinion it is one of the straws showing that as nation we are drifting away from our moorings as q government by, of and for the people. The State Republican of Little Rock has the following to say on this subject:
 It is reported that Admiral Dewey has accepted an invitation to very se- lect dinner, costing one hundred dol lars per plate, The mum OCT of guests will be limited to one hundred, hence he is to be the guest of honor at a ten thousand dollar dinner This is evil dently very patriotic, otherwise it would not take place, but just where the patriotism" comes in, the average American citizens will be unable to de- termine. Admiral Dewey chances to be popular hero at the present hour, and will be "wined and dined" to his h hearts content upon his return home. He desrves well at the hands of his countrymen. and no loyal son of the re public begrudges him his honor. We fail to see, however, that the expendi- lures of ten thousand dollars in d gas- tronomicai contest constitutes .ny portion of the hoEors earned by Ad- rniral Dewey. The money could be used to better advantage in feeding the hungry, and the Admiral, as we'll as the nation, would be much more highly honored than by an eating con test at the cost of one hundred dol lars per head.
