versions of native Americans flying from

pose of unity under authority there have

To part of the American people, especfal-
ly to wealthy New York, the purple Of the
Cardinalate and the pomp Of Catholic wor-
ship have of late been by no means uncon-
genial. Yet between the spirit of American
nationality. even in the most devout Cath
Ole. and that Of the Jesuit or the native
liegeman of Rome, there cannot fail to bs
an opposition more or less acute, though It
may be hidden as far as possible under q
decent veil. This was seen in the case OF
Father Hecker, who had begun his career
as a Socialist at Brook Farm, and as a con.
vert to Catholicism founded a missionary
order. the keynote Of which was that
mans life in the natural and secular or
der of things is marching toward freedom
and personal independence" This he de-
scribed as a radical change, and a radical
change 1t undoubtedly was from the senti.
ments and system OF Loyola. Condemna-
ton by Rome could not fail to follow. Educ
cation has evidently been the scene Of a
subterranean conflict between the Jesuit
and the more liberal. or, what is much the
same thing, the more American section.

The State Taxation.

According to the returns of local
assessors the value of all taxable pro-
perty in Wisconsin this year is
81, O84, 6S7, $40. This is 1881 596.4l6
less than the equalized value fixed by
the state tax commission recently
sitting as the state board of assess
ment.
These figures are based on returns
received by the secretary OF state
from the various counties, all OF
which have reported except Oneida,
and the figures used in that case are
those recently fixed by the state
board of assessment.
Omiting Oneida county, the re-
turns this year aggregate SLOTS,

figures.
Last year the returns of local as
SCISSORS fixed the total value of all
taxable property in the state at
$746, O22, 932, which is about 1898,
664, $40 less than it will be this year,
the increase being about 30 per cent.
The state board of assessment last
year fixed the value Of all property
at $500, 900, 600.
Judge N. S. ellison, state tax com
missioner, said that the returns OF
the local assessors would consider
ably decrease the taxation of sleep
log cars, express, freight and similar
companies whose property is taxed
at the average rate of taxation of all
property in the state. Revenues
from these sources will probably de-
crease between 40 and so per cent.
AS railroad companies proper are
taxed on their earnings per nile of
road, they are not affected by the in
creased valuations. The state board
of assessment reviews the returns of
local assessors, and this year it may
if it deems proper, increase these as
sessments for state and school pur-
poses. The greatest beneficiaries Of
these increased assessments will be
common schools and local govern
ments.

small tracts last year it is thought
the yield will be something enor-

among the farmers is the Angora

tests of the Angora as a grub
