EQUALITY OF ASSESSMENTS

The Star says: One way to
reduce tax burdens is to assess all
property equally. Let the great
corporations bear q just ratio OF
taxation of the territory and
county. Let all property be as
sessed on lines Of equality. The
vast treasures which are being ex-
,racted from our mines should pay
just proportion Of the taxes
necessary to the support OF the
government There should be,

AK, levied by legislative enact
ment. The coming Legislature
must be selected with this end in
view. The mining corporate ms
are willing to pay a reasonable
bullion tax. They should be allow

ton of the territory rende il

so. Every taxable interest should
be assessed at the same rate o

The Public Has Rights.
Norfolk Dispatch.

Reports from almost every city
in the country indicate that, unless
there is speedy termination of
the present coal strike, a famine
in fuel will confront hOusehOlders,
manufacturers and other business
enterprises during the coming
winter.
In Norfolk it is stated that the
problem Of furnishing the public
schools with coal during the COM
ing winter is a serious one. With
all of these facts it is certainly
time for the public to take hand
in the fight. The people should
not be made to suffer on account
Of the differences between the mine
owners and the miners. The
question has begun to be a public
one, and has lost its private nature.
The time has come when the rights
Of the people should be regarded.
The occasion demands unusual ac-
ton. If the mine owners are wrong
they should be made to give in.
If the miners are wrong they should
be made to make concessions. The
people of this country have rights
and should not be made to suffer
on account Of the RIGHTEOUSNESS of
Il few mine owners.

In addition to the dangers of
the many diseases which are pecul-
lar to the tropics, the American
soldiers in the Philippines are
menaced by virulent form of chol-
era which is epidemic in some of
the provinces and which has even
invaded Manila. Most of the
victims are natives, but 1T is only
the zeal and intelligence of the
medical department of the army
which has shielded the soldiers
from the ravages of the malady.
There are about 400 deaths a day
in the provinces and from fifty to
seventy new cases every day
in Manila. With the absolute
authority vested in the health
officers the epidemic could be
stamped out but for the recklessness
of the natives, including the native
doctors. The water used by the
FilipinOs outside of Manila is
polluted by the cholera germs, and
the difficulty of fighting the cpl
demic is further increased by the
disposition of the people to conceal
all possible cases.

Girl AS a Snake Charmer.

Anna LAWYER, a l7-year-old girl,
of Altoona, Pa, comes to the front
with the most peculiar money-mak-
ing occupation on record. On the
hills back of Greenwood, rattle
snakes, vipers and racers abound.
Her youthful training made her
acquainted with habits and haunts
of tie reptiles, and now she is one
of the most expert snake catchers
in the country. Recently she made
a big catch of rattlers and sold
them at handsome profit to
Eastern dealers. She is now work
ing on contract to furnish snakes,
at fancy prices, for carnival show.
So far this season Miss LAWYER
caught 500 snakes, of many varieties
and cleared about $500 by her
peculiar enterprise.

per cent of the gross receipts of any and all circus performances in any county. It was estimated hy those competent to judge that the gross receipts of the Ringing show at Phoenix were fully $6,000; and it is said that the proprietors admit ted as much. Yet Sheriff Stout turned into the treasury only $70. The republican newspapers of the county continually clamored about the missing two hundred and thirty dollars. Note the result. While Wilson the democratic candidate for congress carried Maricopa county by 200 majority, Stout was defeated for re-eiection.
 Yet, here in Santa Cruz county the republicans seem afraid to say their souls are their own, and they try to conduct campaign with kid gloves and perfumery where good hard knocks are needed. Never before was there finer opportunity for an aggressive campaign than in the one just closed. The people are restive under democratic misman- agement of county affairs. Only two men on the democratic ticket -Herold and Harrison-possessed absolutely unimpeaohable records, and they would have gone down in the party wreck.
 THE OASIS was prepared and will ing to make a vigorous struggle for the ticket and to call the other side to account for their shortcomings. But no; that wouldn't do. That would be "mudslinging." The enemy must be treated with con sideration and respect. Their off cial record must not be shown up for fear someone's feelings would be hurt. And the candidates of the republican party went about telling what nice fellows the other fellows are: but that they are, themselves, little bit nicer.
 As before asserted in this article. that kind of campaigning don't make votes. If candidate who hopes to win an office expects to get it, he must show up the short

KID CLOVES AND pERFUmERY.

No political canvass was any where ever won upon kid glove and perfumery basis. Whenever and wherever campaigns are won, and particularly where won against the party already intrenched in power, they are always won by the opposition conducting an aggres- sive campaign; by their showing up the faults and shortcomings of their opponents and pledging bet ter things if themselves entrusted with power. Upon the issues pre- sented the victory is won.
 During quarter of a century the editor of TIE OASIS has been advocating the cause of the repub- lican party. Within that time he has conducted newspapers in sew eral different places, and invariably in counties which were democratic. But the republican party frequently prevailed in those counties by pre- senting a strong, aggressive can vass And they always lost when the canvass was weak and feeble.
 In 1884, in Yolo county, Califor- mia, the writer was the editor of the Woodland Daily Mail, the repub- lican organ of that county. The democratic party had been long entrenched in power, and Gas in Santa Cruz county now) had done many things which were offensive to thinking people. But the thing to do was to bring to the attention of the thinking voters the sins of omission and commission of the democratic county officials. That the Mail undertook to do. Every issue teemed with accounts of dem- ocratic official shortcomings, which their own organ was unable to con trovert. All 1t could do was to feebly protest against mudsling- ing" Some of the democratic off cials and candidates even threat ened personal violence; but the united republican party stood solidly at the back of its organ and notified those who threatened that such means would be effective in far greater damage to the demo- cratic cause. The result was that the republican county ticket was elected, and for the first time in its history Yolo county gave major ity for the republican electoral l ticket and for a republican con gressman.
