and Russian attempts at progress in the twon-
rHE rRorRLEs IN NATAL.

The disturbances in Natal are hardly likely
TO develop into another Zulu war or to rival
in extent and seriousness the troubles which
the Germans are having with the Hottentots
in Damaraand, yet they are already suheleht
10 cause much concern. The natives of that
country are among the most formidable ana
resourceful of all the African tribes and ther
numbers are so overwhelming that any general
uprising of them would have to he met with
extraordinary measures. The European popula-
ton of Natal is increasing rapidly. but II is suli
comparatively small. 1t has more than treDleo
In twenty-five years, but it now amounts 10
scarcely $4,000. The Indian and other Aslatlc
population has at the same time increased near
~ fvefold, and now numbers 10000. But the
negro population, although it has Increased less
than threefold now reaches the enormous total
of 100000, or more than twelve times the Euro
pean. or more than six times the combined
European and Asatic populations.
The white men of Natal have tremendous
task on hand to keep these black myrlads IN
order and to lead them toward civilization
The spirit of Chaka of DingaaD and OF Getty
wayo is by no means dead among the Zulus, and
it may become rampant at any time, at Il show
ing of weakness on the part of the white men,
1t is that consideration which caused Natal
so sharply to resent what its statesmen re-
garded as unwarranted interference by the
home government week ago. When hand
full of white men are potentially fighting for
their lives against a multitude of half savage
men they feel the need of a free hand and
they think they are better judges of what IS
necessary than other men who are five thou
sand miles away from the scene Of labor and
of peril

PROGRESS IN TAXATION.

The passage by the Assembly of the bill to
substitute a recording tax on mortgages for the
annual tax imposed last year brings within the
range OF possibility a reform which until re-
Gently there seemed no reason 10 expect. The
Tribune has long contended for the entire aboli-
tion of mortgage taxation. It opposed the iGl-
position of the present tax from the time ii
first proposed by the Stranahan joint commit
tee and sought first entire exemption and then
a recording tax as an alternative The rural
members of the Legislature who had long been
accustomed to taxation of mortgages at the full
local tax rate were 50 utterly opposed to any
thing of this kind that after the passage of the
present law it seemed hopeless for time at
least. to look for anything better
The annual tax, in spite of its theoretical i'm
prOpriety and practical incOnvenences, was such
vast improvement the old method by which
the income from few mortgages, chiefly owned
ay widows and orphans, was almost coniscated
While the great body of mortgages escaped scot
free, that we much preferred to continue under
the present law than to have it repealed and
return TO the iniquities of the old system We
greatly feared that with the feeling manifested
year after year in the Legislature an attempt
at this time to modify the law would result in
its repeal and return to the general property
tax on the few mortgages in the hands of per-
sons who could not cover them up We there
AO-S NSAS liNiiiiNu " give ltit ITeSellb law Il
longer trial
The advocates of the recording tax have how
ever, been more successful campaigners than
we had anticipated. They have convinced a
majority of the Assembly. and feel confident
that they have majority Of the Senate if the
bill can be pushed to a vote in that body We
are agreeably disappointed over this situation.
While the recording tax scheme has defects and
obviously penalties the short term borrower in
comparison with the corporation which issues
long term bonds nevertheless it is an advance
in taxation methods. 1t is gratifying to see
that old prejudices among lawmakers are being
overcome and we hope now that partial vic
tory has been achieved that all friends of tax
reform will rally to aid in pushing the measure
through the Senate. Without doubt this reduc-
ton or the mortgage tax will be extremely well
received by the great body Of the people The
Dill Will certainly impose no new burden upon
any class OF taxpayers, as there was reason to
rear an efort to get rid of the present law might
result IN doing. Governor Higgins in his Brook
lyn speech last night indicated his readiness to
sign the Recording Tax bill if it came to him.
though he had been content TO give a longer
tFlal tc last years vast improvement on the
old law So there is an excellent opportunity
for still further advance this year, which
should by no means be lost
