legislation, as the cooperation OF the

The refusal Of . single State to cooperate

FAvoRs A 5o.CENT STATE RATE.

Congressman Newlands addressed the
Chamber of Commerce at Carson last
week. We take the following from the
Carson News regarding his views about
the reduction of taxation and proper
valuations in Nevada:
Mr.. Newlands took up the question Of
. low tax rate IS . means Of increasing
settlement in the State. He was of the
the opinion that this was Of great i'm
portancs. In many counties the tax
rate was nearly equal TO the rate Of in
terest in other States, and such . tax
rate had an u~nfavorable effect upon peo-
pie thinking Of making Investment in the
State. He favored pledsina both parties
next year to . State levy Of 80 cents on
the hundred. and TO the passage Of = law
limiting the tax rate in ell counties. ex-
ospt perhaps Storey. and possibly n or
two others. to one dollar IN the hundred,
exclusive Of interest or debt. He claimed
that this method would result in . uni
form tax rate of about one and one-half
per cent, and would compel an increase
in the general assessment. II would tend
10 equalize assessments as between indi-
viduah and counties and would force on
the assessment roll considerable values
that were now escaping taxation. His
view was that . low tax rate meant good
government, and . low assessment meant
bad government, - il always implied
great inequality and al effort to escape
public obligations.

COLUMBIA WINS.

The winds have become propitious at
last and the yacht races are being pulled
off this week. The first decisive race
took place Monday over . course fifteen
miles TO windward and back. The wind
was good. though sdense mist prevailed,
which DISTRACTED . good view OF the
yachts. Both boats were handled in .
mastery manner, but the Columbia wac
in the lead almost from the start. and
shis race demonstrates that her SUI
periority 10 such wind and course is
unouestionable. At the start the Sham.
rock was slightly in the lead, but the
Columbia soon overhauled her and on
reaching the stskeboat was about . mile
and . half in the lead and finished ten
minutes and eight seconds ahead.
Another trial took place next day
which also resulted in victory TOR the
defender. This race was over Q tn
angular course Of ten miles TO zach leg.
or thirty miles in all. For 9 quarter OF
an hour the Shamrock lead, then was
overloaded and passed by the Columbia.
At this point q disastrous accident be-
fell the Shamrock in the breaking of her
topmast, and she was compelled 10 with
draw from the race. The American
ysoht sailed over the course, finished
inside the time limit and was. according
to the rules which govern the contests,
declared winner Of the race. This gives
the Columbia two ont Of the five trials
that are to decide the homo OF the
Americas cup for 81 least another year.
Much regret was expressed that the
Columbia ran over the course and won
this last race by default, but considering
the rules, Iselin could not have done
otherwise and have done justice to his
compatriots. Nevertheless he expressed
sympathy for the unfortunate accident
to the Shamrock; while Sir Thomas
Upton, always gentlemanly. expressed
himself az perfectly satisfied that the
Columbis should take this race. What
ever may happen, it is perfectly evident
that these trials have been conducted il
true sportsmsnlike manner, and If tht
Shamrock loses, Is now seems probable,
it will be because she is an inferior or or
unlucky boat. At the same time Sill
Thomas name will be the criterion o.
honor to which all future contestant
will be compsred.

Dear Governor: l have been an inter-
ested observer Of the movement regard
ing the holding Of . trust conference by
the governors and attorneys-genersl Of
the various States, ct ST. Louis. / OBJ
served that very few Of the officials Of
Republican States have accepted the
invitation rendered, and I assume that
the conference will be. in the main, .
consultation Of Democratic Governors
and Attorneys.G General, and that some
euuncistion Of doctrine on this subject
will be made which will be persuasive
in the formation Of the next Democratic
platform regarding trusts. l venture
therefore to write you a few words upon
the subject. as l sm exceedingly anxious
that the Democratic platform should be
so shaped as not to ALLEVIATE any Of the
friends Of silver and to attract to the
support Of the Democratic party the two
elements essential to its success, the
lsboring and the agricultural classes.

THERE were threats of court martialing

plaints about the poor quality of their
food in the army. Witnesses who testi
fed of the vile beef before the "Commis-
sion," were treated as if they we're on
trial instead of giving valuable informa-
ton to the Government, and Gen. Miles
was traduced and threatened with court
martial because he collected testimony
showing how embalmed and vile beei
we're issued to the soldiers; but we have
failed as yet to hear the first outburst oi
Indignation from any one high in au-
thority because our brave soldiers sick
ened and died from the use of such vile
food. The red hot wrath of the Govern.
ment should have been visited upon the
men who thus destroyed the health o.
our brave soldiers, and all questions o
