AssembIymen Visit Our College

Upon invitation, Tuesday afternoon
sixteen Assem- }ymen visited our col
leee at p. NJ, and examined the work
done by the pupils. They found the
work of a high character and up-to-

They were greatly impressed by the
interest manifested by the pupils, aud
business like way in which each per-
formed his part.
DR.. Blanchet was asked TO express
his views regarding the educational
system of the State He responded.
and pointed out some defects well
worthy of consideration.
Assemblyman Wilson, of Elko. and
Paul, of Ely, addressed the pupils
showing them the great necessity of
thorough training in commercial life.

cordially entertained during their short
visit at the college, much to the graft

for which no apology is necessary. We
believe it to be second to none on the

Blame of the Wreck.

The papers of San Francisco still give
heart rcnding accounts of the wreck of
the Rio at the entrance Of the harbur and
the blame is equally divided between the
captain and the pilot. The bulk of the
blame falls on the captain, who against
the company's orders entered the port in
a fog.
1t is also in evidence that the crew was
mainly composed of Chinese, who took
to the boats at the first sight of danger
and let the white women perish. With n
white crew many more lives would have
been saved.
When the public refuse to travel in
steamers manned by Cinnamon, the COM
panies will probably employ white crews.
The California Legislature might easily
regulate this matter and now is a good
time to do it.

THE LUMP SUN TAX.

Considerable is being heard these
days about having the various counties
pay their State tax in lump sum.
The objec OF this is to eliminate the
State tax from the equitable assessment
problem. Rich counties object TO pay
ing taxes upon decent valuation be
cause by placing it low they can beat
the State out OF its lust share.
50 it is proposed to assess each
county a stated sum for State purposes.
the amounts TO be based upon the sum,
last paid by each county. Apart from
tins there will be no State tax There
will be no appOrtlOnment and the coun-
ties will each simply pay the State a
certain sum from their general funds.
Under this arrangement there Will BE
no object III placing its valuation at
one-tourth OF its real value. and perhaps
under existing circumstances this Is thu
best method that can be pursued tOwar,

LABOR ORGANIZATION
FOR MINERS ONLY
Adjunct to the Western Federation of
Miners Now Being Talked Of-Plan
Is to Have a State Federation in
Every Commonwealth.

One more state labor organiZa ton is
beginning to peep up over the horizon,
says the Denver Post.
Miners alone, however. will compose
its membership. and the whole will be
an adjunct to the Western Federation
of Miners.
Not only will Colorado have such an
organization, Lat every other state
where the federation has a foothold will
have the advantages of & home depart
ment. as 1t We're, of the main body.
The executive boar dof the federation
has spent considerable time discussing
the ACCESSIBILITY of organizing state fed
erations of miners, and the favorable
sentiment was unanimous.
Arrangements will take a more definite
form when the board gets through its
revision of the constitution, which be-
gins this afternoon and will probably
last week.
State declarations will not only enable
those interested to do better work and
stimulate interest, but they will prepare
men for the responsibilities Of member
ship in the executive board and other
offices of the main body.
AS at present, when these officers are
elected by popular vote among the
unions, men are sent to the high of
fees with little or no experience in the
management of big organizations, and
the board believes experience in a state
organization will better fit the future
candidates for general offices. 1t is also
held that there is sufficient work in each
state for such organizations.
The board also considered the advisa-
bility Of having one or two speakers ad-
dress the public during the coming con.
