The Difference in Values.

One of those puzzles about the re-
markable shrinkage of a mans prop
erty when ii comes to be assessed for
taxation is presented in st. Louis by
the case of Col. Ed Butler. the politi-
cal boss who escaped the penitentiary
through the presence of Judge Technic-
atty in the Missouri supreme court.
Col. Butler. when going on the bonds
of arrested grafters. makes affidavit to
the possession of 100000 worth of
property. but when he is TO be taxed
the assessors learn of but 81 900 worth
of wealth.
This shows the law of shrinkage in
the presence of the tax assessor To
have worked with extreme vigor in
Buffers case. If the force had been
little stronger Col. Butler might have
brought the community in as owing
him something.

A Hard Slap nc the Mayor.

As the result of the differences be-
tween the present mayor and city coun-
ell. is Rock Island TO awake some fine
morning to find itself subdivided into
seven little municipalities, each gov
erned by its respective ward alder
men? This may prove the case if the
tendency of last evenings meeting OF
the common council is continued. In
the adoption of Aid Anderson's resolu-
ton directing the city clerk TO notify
the Fourteenth avenue contractors to
accept orders only from the aldermen
of the Seventh ward in the disposition
OF the dirt taken from the excavations,
was a pretty hard slap at the present
municipal executive. Indeed it came
dangerously near 10 an insult. and
there have been incumbents of the
mayoral chair in Rock Island who
would not have put such resolution 10
vote. letting it go to an appeal from
the decision of the chair if insisted
upon.
Considering the exceedingly unsatis-
factory way that Mayor McCaskrin has
discharged his duties in his relations
to the council. il is not surprising that
some of the aldermen have become ex-
asperated almost beyond endurance.
His disposition to be d one-man admin
istration has been a source of frequent
comment in The Argus. and ii is that
that has TO large extent Occasioned
the friction between himself and the
council. with which body he ought 10
seek to work in harmony rather than at
cross purposes.
Mayor McCaskrin should have been
quite certain that he was up TO the
duties of the office to which he aspired
before he placed himself before the
people. and being strong enough TO
fill the mayors chair he should have
had the strength 10 properly resent the
affront offered him in Aid. Anderson
resolution had the occasion for II
arisen.

Oue Of McCalrs Little, Foolish Ex-
cuses Put in the PiIlOry.

One of the admirable suggestions
made relative TO the contribution of
the New York Life Insurance company
TO the republican national campaign
slush fund. is the following from the
Philadelphia Record:
John A. Mccall told the Armstrong
committee that il was 10 defeat silver
ism and not TO help the republican
party that he gave S49,7O2 of the New
York Life policy holders money TO
Cornelius y. Bliss last year. But there
was no silverism last year. The con-
vention did not adopt the Kansas City
platform, and by an overwhelming ma
jority it accepted Judge Parker's gold
standard letter. and the main factor in
the defeat of the judge was that silver
democrats refused TO vote for him be
cause he was a gold man. Mr.. Mccall
might as well have given $4,000 to
his church. on the ground that it would
promote morality, and morality was
favorable TO longevity. and would.
therefore. reduce the expenses of life

of the business is simply taking in pre-
miums and paying out death claims.
And the way for him 10 get new bust
ness is by avoiding high finance, by
avoiding great intellectual feats in
Wall street, by reducing the cost of
Insurance as low as possible and by
making payments on death claims as
big as they would be but for high sal
aries. high finance and high rolling
