The Siberian Railroad.

The Railroad Gazette observes that
while some journals of western Europe
will have it that Russia is so well
pleased with it's Siberian Railroad
that it is preparing to build another
across the desert of Cobb to Peklng,
some of the Russian journals say that
it would be better off without the
Chinese end of the railroad already
built. 4 writer in what is perhaps
the leading Russian newspaper ,afirms
that the expenses of this road will De
81, 000, 600 to So, oc0,000 more than It's
gross earnings; that the maintenance
of steam navigation on the Amoor N
connection with the railroad nets q
loss of about 81, 600, 900 year; that
interest on the capital invested will
amount to ST, 10000 to s10,Co0, 0oO,
and the military protection of the
road will cost S., 600. 900 to ST, 500. 000-
altogether ST., 800, COO to s22, 800, 600 a
wear Just to keep the railroad going.
Adding the expenditures sfor improv-
ing the road, for building and main
tanning the Pacific ports at Port Ar
thur and Dalni, and the cost of keep
ing a navy on the Pacific coast, he
reckons that Russia will ha poorer by
$40, coo, 900 to $50, 100000 year be-
cause of the railroad.

NUMBER OF ASSESSORS
REMAINS the same.
Senate Refuses to Have One from
Each Judicial Circuit Instead
of from Each County.

A very radical bill was killed dur
ing the morning session of the senate.
This was the special tax committee S
recommendation to have the members
of the State board of assessors come
from each judicial circuit instead OF
from each county as at present. The
debate was somewhat lengthy, Senators
Dean, Blake and Brice speaking
against the bill and Senators Mower
and Manning for it. As the speeches
made we're more or less technical,
Senators Dean and Manning we're later
asked for statements of the arguments
against and for the bill.
Senator Manning said, defending the
bill:
cit was to be expected that opposi
tion would be offered to the bill. 1t
touched a sensitive nerve. The condl-
tion existing when the tax commission
was appointed exists now, and that
condition briefly stated is that the
State is spending annually more than
the annual revenues. One OF two
things was necessary, either the apprc-
priations must be reduced to the re-
venue increased. A careful analysis
of all conditions reveals the impossl-
bility of materially reducing expandl-
lures and certainly not sufficiently to
bring the expenditures down to the
present revenues, so that the conlmls,
sion decided to provide for Increased
revenues from additional sources CT
reveuue for Immediate relief, and to
make such changes in existing laws
as will give greater equality IN assess
ments. This bill looks to greater
equality in assessments, and the pres
ent working of equalization was SHOWN
to be Ineffective and the inequalities
in assessments glaring, aud the pro-
posed change would give small eusl-
ness body practical, business way OF
dealing with the matter, remove local
influence aud give authority to the
board to inform itself of values IN the
different counties, SO that some uni
form system of assessment could be
reached.
Senator Dean. who moved to lnde-
fnately postpone the bill, said:
cit would men in it's practical en-
forcement taxation without representa-
ticn. 1t proposes to reduce MEMBER
ship on this important board to one
from each judicial circuit, whereas
now each county has its own represen-
tative who is supposed to know some
thing of values in the county lie repre-
sents on the board.
"Under this bill, ii itshoulo become
a law, what could the member OF the
State board from the Eighth circuit,
if he should reside in Oconee county,
know about valuation in Greenville
county and vice versa: So far as the
expense of operating this tax machin-
cry is concerned, this bill offers no re-
lief for, where it reduced them embers,
it increases the term CT service and
allows unlimited mileage charges and
in my opinion would be more expen-
sive than the present plan.
Speaking for Greenvilye county,
1 know that she is jealous OF her right
to direct representation on this I'M
portant board. 1.-The State.

take his paper, or some one whose
self. respect will not allow him to de-
scend to the low level of debate with
this Baptist bute.
o, the Infamous varmint!! How
long shall we be compelled to endure
him! How long shall the good men
who are trying to lead our Boards be
subjected to the attacks of these
bloody-beaked and unsavory ilth-
slingers How they sicken us!-these
maligners of the brethren-these deal
ers in filth and lies-these lovers OF
the unclean, all, too, under the guise
of piety, with voice whose holy
tone is set to deceive even the elect.
No one is free from him, no one is
immune from his attacks. The very
presence of the buzzard has come to
to indicate the presence OF filth,
and so this buteo Baptisiicus,
by merely hanging around you.
by bis repeated irsinuation and
innuendo, leads others to suspect the
existence of evil. The higher a man
stands in the esteem of the world, he
greater the glory in pulling him down,
and so it has come to pass, in some
sections, that it is really dangerous to
have the bretheren love and confide in
you.
I am glad to know that in ali the
South we have but few birds Of this
bad breed-these 6lth-slingers and
stink -toters. I hope the day may
speedily come when even these may
die from an overbate of their own
choice food. What use they will make
of Gheir whining tones aud SOLDERING
piety in the world to which they are
going, I don't know. And
But I believe I'll wind up with g
story. An Irishmau was put upon
trial, and asked if he was guilty. He
said, "Not guilty, your honor, not
guilty" He was then asked, Are
you prepared for trial?'' 80 no, :"
he replied, 81 don't care to bother
you to try me. I don't want to put
YOU to that trouble. I would just as
soon go without ito "But you must
