Color Effects.
Yours truly.
\ Citizen.

1t is quite a new fashion to wear
very narrow colored necktles with
ones white lingetrie blouse. The
necktie just outlines the stock COL
lar where it joins the yoke and ties
in front in a smart little bow. II
may be of holly red velvet or satin,
or of any color which happens to
be particularly becoming. If girl
cares to 60 to the trouble Of sewing
new buttons every once in while
on her nitt cuffs. it is very pref
tv little fad to have the buttons on
the cuffs to match the little necktie
in color.-Womans Home Com

some twenty-five or more years ago,
and has since then grown steadily
and has spread all over the state,
and is still spreading. 1t has
brought about a condition that q
white farmer. no matter how invlt-
ing and how fruitful his soil. and no
matter how badly he NAV need help
to seed. cultivate and harvest his
crops, need not for moment foS-
ter the hope of hiring negro. no
matter how hungry, how ragged
and dependent the negro may be,
without first putting up a cash bo-
nus-advancing stated and de-
nlanded amount in order to secure
at least the promise that the appll-
cant will on certain day begin
work upon the hnanciering land
lords premises.
And seven times out OF ten or at
not badly dissimilar ratio the he
gro. after securing the cash de-
nlanded. moves on and sells HIM
self to another and another farmer,
thus duping a good long string Of
unwary and unsuspecting landown-
ers. only to skip for parts unknown,
or else land in limbo, to be bought
by the farmer possessing the long
est pole.
Thus the country is overrldden
by an endless chain of negro dead
beats while the farmer, disgusted
at the painful outcome OF his own
follv. tries to find an asylum in town
or is compelled to sacrifice his nea-
gre belongings and seek place of
refuge in the wilds Of the west.

AS TO TAXATION.
Some Good Suggesting on the Methods of
Assessing Property.

Mr.. Editor Each year there is
no little discussion in the papers
as to the means that should be adop-
ted to obtain from taxpayers a JUST
assessment of their property for
taxation. 1t seems to be one of the
most difficult things with which all
governments have to do. All men
admit that money must be raised
by the government in order to Ell
able it to perform its legitimate
functions. Money must be raised
but How? That's the question. If
all men in the state fully recognized
it as duty to act honestly in what
ever method of. taxation might be
adopted there would be no trouble.
Lower taxes is the cry Of men ev-
ervwhere and candidates for politi-
cal positions ring it into the ears Of
the voters in every campaign: "The
taxes are too high. Expenses must
be cut down. Send me and | will
see that. your taxes are reduced.
Extravaganza will be stopped and
so on ad nausean. The candidate
is elected, but things go on in the
same old way. Our comptroller
general has been urging the audi
tors Of the counties to use every ef-
fort to obtain a correct valuation Of
all property assessed for taxation
this year. Will it be done? Hard
~. They may do their duty and
no doubt will but, how about the
man who gives in his property? If
all men were honest there would be
no trouble. 1t is true that it makes
no difference as to whether the
property is assessed at its true cash
value or at only I-2 it's value. The
taxes for state and county purposes
will be raised. The people will
have to pay the money for the sup
port of government. The only
thing is that a low valuation Of the
property causes high rate of tax
es and is not all i1ducement to i'm
migrants. 1t doesn't Aatter us.
Outsiders look upon lis poor folk.
Men want to be regarded as rich
1t occurs to me that there might be
a system adopted that would work
all right. Suppose we had a law
under which the governor, by and
with the advice and consent of the
senate. should appoint three free
holders for each county whose duty
it should be to appraise all the real
estate in their countv-valueing
buildings and land separately-and
report their valuations to the coun-
tv auditor.-Let such valuation be
made at intervals of, say. five years.
You say this would cost money?
OF course it would. but. would it
not be money we'll expended: You
would then have the valuation of all
property more correctly made than
by the present method.
| know that suggestions to men
who have the power to Use them are
not. as a rule. considered favorablv.
| believe the members Of the legis-
lature are wise but, they don't pos
sess all wisdom.
Yours truly.

A decision has been reached by
Postmaster General Cortelyou to
give the contract for printing United
States postage stamps to the Bureau
of Engraving and Printing after all,
in spite of the fact that the Bureau
was slightly underbid by the Ameri-
can Bank Note Company on propos-
ais Tor stamps few weeks ago. The
difference in favor of the lower bid
amounted to about $4,000, but
there was no mandatory law which
would compel the acceptance of this
bid, and the Postmaster General de-
cided that all things considered, it
would not be economy to throw the
postage stamp plant of the Bureau
out of commission and leave the ma
chinery standing idle, or else sell it,
probably at loss, to the company
which had put in lower bid for the
stamps.

A writer in medical journal has
this to say concerning physical cul-
ture; IAN hour of useful, purposive
work, involving muscular exertiou,
such as lawn-mowing, wood chopping,
saving, shoveling, etc, is of more
vital value to the individual than
several hours spent in the indoor
gymnasium or athletics. Usefulness.
purPosiveness, helpfulness, and gen
eral service furnish the keynote to
the harmony and moral equipoise,
strength and beauty, in human no
less than universal nature. If ones
daily work will furnish him exercise.
it is the best physical culture be
can possibly take. The doing of
Homework, saving wood, shoyeling
snow from the yard-some work
that has a purpose in it's far bet
ter than just mechanically going
through some set form of exercise,
such as practicing in the ordinary
gymnasium with dumb bells, Indian
o'a''-' sss- The best benefit comes
when the mind ssweu as the oosv !.
engaged in the exercise, whether in
doors or outdoors, that engages both
muscle and mind, is sure to be more
beneficial than that exercise that is
simply taken because one feels con-
strained to go through some mechan-
ical mode Of exercise. The mind and
body must work together to secure
the best results"

WHY A

n
IS BEST

1. A NATIONAL BANK is under the
supervision of the United States Gov
eminent.
2. LAWS governing National Banks
are very strict.
8. NATIONAL BANKS are required
to submit to the Government and publish
in their home paper an exact statement
Of their Business five times year.
4. NATIONAL BANKS are examined
twice year by experts from the United
States Treasury.
5. THEIR STOCKHOLDERS are held
responsible in double the amount Of
their stock, thus giving undoubted Sc
curity to the depositors.
FIVE DOLLARS will open an &C

SMALL ACCOUNTS are especially
