We could go on in every ward in the
city and cite just such discrepences
and inequalities, but we do not believe
it is necessary. The assessor has GER
tainly proven himself wanting in the
judgement Of property as each year he
serves he grows worse instead of bet
ter. Perhaps this year he has done
poorer work from the fact that he
served the city as assessor, civil
engineer and member of the Board of
Review during the months of May
and June. No man can serve the city
in three capacities all at the same
time, or nearly so, and do them all
justice. A change in assessor this
year, we believe, will prove a health
full thing all around.

Conditions of Trade.

Business is not frightened, either by
the great capitalization of new COM
panies or by the wild fluctuations in
Wall street. 1t goes ahead with calm
disregard of speculative performances
and payments through the principal
clearing houses have been for the
week 1872 per cent. larger than last
year, and SO.3 per cent. larger than in
1892, but for cities outside New York
39.2 per cent. larger than last year and
44.3 per cent. larger than in 1892. No
matter how much the stock operations
in New York may count, business else
where is large enough to warrant a
wonderful expansion of industries and
that is the thing most important to
observe. In no considerable branch
has production diminished, but in
practically all it has been increasing
during the past week.

WHAT OF THESE fIGURES?.
COMPUTED DIRECT FROM THE RELORDS
No Fcta Music Here-PIan Facts Proving
Mr. PhiIeo a Poor Jutge of
Property Values.

\ communication appeared in the
last issue of the REPORTER beaded
Honest Assessments and signed
Fair Play The article had our en-
dorSement as whole, but as to the
facts and figures we knew nothing.
On examination Of the assessment roll
for 1858, we found that ''Fair Play" in
his article had made two errors, but
his complaint was justified Personally
we have no grievance to make in
particular, but what we have to say
will be in reference to assessments as
whole, made by Edward /. Philleo,
the present assessor and who is can
didate against Peter McCamley the
convention nominee. In the first
place the present assessor has been
favored with three terms and that
usually will satisfy most men but in
this case it appears not. Another
complaint we have often heard
against him, with strong evidence to
warrant the complaint, that he is dis
courteous and sometimes insulting
with those who have grievances before
him. Such conduct ought not to be
permitted of a public official and the
voters should resent it. We are as
sured Of one thing that Mr. McCamley
will certainly be obliging, courteous
and affable in making his assessment
and that is more than can be said of
our present assessor. We understand
that he and his friends are circulating
the report that he is the poor mans
candidate and against the rich and
property owners. To satisfy ourselves
of that we have gone through the
assessment roll for 1898 and find that
the Board of Review saw fit to cut
down his assessment on the following
list Of properties because they thought
he had fixed the assessed values too
high. We append the following and
ask careful peruSal of the properties
and ask if he is entitled to the reputa-
tion of being the poor mans friend.

A CHANGE FOR THE BETTER,
Citizens Ward Caucuses and Convention tt
Succeed Nomination Paper Methods.

Citizens Ward Caucuses and Convention To
Succeed Nomination Paper Methods.
Non-partisan caucuses were held in
the several wards of the city of Cen
tralia Monday evening to nominate
ward officers and to elect delegates to
the city convention which was held in
the city hall at 7:30 O'Clock Tuesday
evening. 1t is the first time in many
years that caucus and convention
methods have been introduced in Cen
tralia for the organization of local
government, and the general lack of
knowledge on the part of most cleo
tors in that city concerning said method
points conclusively to the fact that
the no-account, unrepresentative anti
quated nomination paper system might
adyantageouSly have been discarded
long before. 1t is believed. and the
results of the aforesaid caucuses have
already proven. that a great change
