tain the various branches of govern
ment, and for the expense of collect

dition lo the "indebtedness clause"
which is used by many moneyed men
8 a cover under which they escape all
taxation, mcko the poor man's tax
much greater than it ought to be.
The man who is actually benefitted by
the indebtedness clause is not the
owner of a small home or the farmer
who owns a few hundrcds.for both are
ustessed at a higher rate to make up
f'jr the tax-dodging practices carried
on under cover of the law exempting
indebtedness, aud which was passed
ostensibly for the poor man.
The motto for the coming legisla
ture should be "lot no property escape
taxation," and having this thought be
fore them proceed to frame such a law
as will best and most equitably regu
lite the burden of taxation, let the
e.Tect of such a law hit whom it will.
If it is a good thing to have three or
four assessors aud the same number of
tax collectors, all of whom have lo be
paid for time spent in the performance
of their several duties, so that a man
never knows when his taxes are all
paid, just for the sake of keeping the
funds all separate, then why not carry
this principle a little further and have
a state tax collector, a university fund
collector, a military fund collector, a
state school fund collector, a general
county fund collector, a county school
tax collector, a bridge tax" collector,
and so on ad infinitum, till there are
offices enough to go around, when
everybody can be supported by the
government?
Ia contradistinction to this is the
Iowa plan which make the county
treasurer the sole collector, and he
works for a salary so that the total cost
for a county like this would not ex
ceed 12.000, including clerk hire. One
assessment is made by a precinct
assessor under instruction from the
county supervisors. Upon this assess
ment the supervisors make their ievy
for state, county, school, city, road and
special purposes ; thus once a citizen
has his tax receipt in bis pocket be
knows that he is done, and he can live
without fear and be happy the rest ef
the year.
Let the taxpayer insist upon having
: justice from the legislature that con
venes next month. It is time some
thing was done.
TBE POSTOFFICE DEPARTMENT,;
We have before us the annual re
port of Fostmaster-Qeneral Wanama
ker, in a neatly bound and exhaustive
volume. Among the many recom
mendations of that official is the abol
ition of the box rent system. He
ays:
"I again advise the abolition of box
rents at all offices which are without
free delivery, and also at free delivery
offices to persons . or firms located be
yond the free delivery boundaries. t
the public is obliged to be at the trou
ble of calling for mail, it should not be
charged for boxes."
The postmaster-general also recom
mends that the fees for money orders
be reduced, and submits a tabulated
statement of rates to be charged for
the issuance of money orders. ' He
also states that the 1-cent letter post
age which he recommended one year
ago is a near nossibilitr. and adds :
"One-cent letter postage to every place
in the world is what this nation is
' surely coming to." At some length
he urges congress to pass a law divid
ing the postal service into districts
upon a real business basis. This is
along the same line, only a step far in
advance of the visits by the county
seat postmasters, which has been pro
ductive of much good, so far. This,
i f1, . 1 .iL. i . i 1 f
iiao me outer great postal reiorms, can
be only a question of time. Upon
this question the postmaster-general
says: .
"Briefly, the plan is to divide the
whole postal territory into a certain
number of districts, say one hundred.
I formerly suggested a division by
states; this would probably not be
numerous enough. Each district
would be put in charge of a postal
supervisor or director, and the regular
inspectors of the. department should
assist these supervisors, as they might
, be needed, in depredation work. Then
all detail matters relating to the estab
lishment and discontinuance of post-
appointments and -removals, the best

regulations, irregularities, aud, in gen
era), .the whole business conduct of
the servico, would all bo superintended
personally by the district supervisors
with the assistance, as suggested, o
the regular inspectors when reiuiredJ
and with the support, of course, of all
the postmasters ig the district who
would feel, as never before, that their
effort 8 on behalf of adequate facilities
and economical and enterprising niau
ftcement would find appreciation. The
district supervisors could acl under
rules without reference to the depart
mcnt at Washington and without uoe
less delay ; Ihey would be Ihe counsel
04S of the department, the general
medium of communication with it;
and the first assistant postmaster-gen
erul should be constituted the comp
troller or actuary, to whom the super
visors should report. The members of
congress would find themselves re
lieved of no end of disagreeable de
partniental drudgery, and the depart
ment would come directly in touch
wuh the postal employes, and they in
turn would he better in touch witu the
people served." ' ,
WHERE EMIGRANTS GO.
Tho attractions whioh the United
Stales offers outweigh all others, says
the North American Eeview. Of a
total of 334,452 emigrants from the
United Kingdom in 1S91 there went
to British North America 83,791; to
Australia 19,714, and to the Uuited
States 252,171. The Irish go mainly
to the United States, and the Scotch
largely to Canada, Of Germans 96
per cent, go the United States, and
targe numbers to Brazil, but almost
none to the colonies which their gov
ernment has planted and tended with
so much care in Africa. The Swiss
mike for North and South America,
the Italians for the co an tries borderiug
ou the river Flat and Brazil, but one
third of the whole for the United
State. Frenchmen do not any longer
settle in Cana la, and their coming is
said to be discoursed from fear lest
the turbulent spirit of innovation
which tl.ey bring with them should
work havoc in church and state, but
they shape their course for South
America instead. From Austria
Hungary the stream flows iuto the
United States and Argentin. The
former of these draws from the three
Scandinavian countries and attracts
Russians, Poles aud Jews from the
ezar's dominions.
Thk meeting -of the electoral col
lege in each state for the purpose of
voting for president and vice-president
uow takes place on the second
Wednesday in January instead of the
first Wednesday in December, as was
formerly the case. The law was
changed by an act of she Fiftieth con
gress. On the second Wednesday in
February next the two houses of con
gress will meat in joint session, when
the votes of all the states will be
opened and counted, and the success
ful candidates notified of their elec
tion." -
The issue of standard silver dollars
from the mints and treasury offices
during the week ending December 17,
was 763,12S. For the corresponding
period of last year if, was $557,978.
The shipment of fractional silver coin
from the 1st to the 17th insls. amount

WASHINGTON LETTER. -
(From our regular correspondent.)
Washington, December 10, 1802.
Senator Gorman, with whose tricki
ness as a politician the country has
long been familiar, is the manager of
tho democratic scheme to secure the
election of senators from Wyoming,
Montana, North Dakota, Nebraska and
possibly California who, if not demo
crats, will make an ironclad agreement
to vote with the democrats on all po
litical questions, including the organ
ization of the- senate of the next con
gress: and Jerry Simpson is to be his
chief instrument for hoodwinking the
populist members of the legislatures
of those states. Facts were brought
out at the republican senatorial caucus
held this week which convinced the re
publican senators that anything like
an honest deal in these states, except
ing California, is bound to result in
the election of republican senators,
and steps are being taken to npset
Gorman's little game by preventing
democratic dishonesty. It is now be
lieved that the republicans can con
trol the senate in the next congress,
although if at all it will be by a very
narrow margin.
Present indications hear out the
truthfulness of the report prevalent
before the assembling of congress, that
the anti-option bill was to be talked to
death in the senate. The other report
that a number of Sonthern senators
who had favored tho bill at the last

session had changed front and were
now opposed to it is not borne out by
the notion of the Southern senators
who have already epokeu upou the
bill.;
The presidont will ondoavor to get
a little recreation during the holiday
recess of congress by going on a duck
shootini! ttiii, While he is rot ex
actly sick, his health is far from being
robust. His friends and family hope
that a short rest will put him in a gotxl
condition to stand the immense
amount of work that will be imposed
on him imer tlio liolHlavs. -
In marked contrast to publication
in democratic newspapers alleging by
uniilication, il not in plain words, Hint
Secretary Foster is trying to deceive
the democrats and thu country us to
the condition of the treasury, are the
words of Representative Springer, the
chairman of tho house committee on
ways and means, which has iust been
authorized by a house resolution to
inquire into and report upon thu pres
ent comliuoD of the treasury and the
Idture ' prolxiblo revenues under I1 res
ent laws, Mr. Springer said i "We
shall call upon Secretary Foster for a
statement covering moneys on hand
and indebtedness up to and including
December 31, which closes the lirst
half of the current fiscal year. Of
course wo have every confidence in
Secretary Foster, who is eminently
fair, and there is no doubt that we will
be given a precise statement of the
treasury s condition." Secretary lo
ter told Mr. Springer and beiiutnrs
Carlisle and Brice that il was abso
lutely certain that there would bo an
available surplus of not less than $20,
000,000 at the close of the preseut
fiscal year.
The excitement in the houso over
the studied slight put upon Speaker
Crisp at the reform club banquet has
not yet died out, but as there is still a
doubt as to whether Mr. Cleveland
was a party to it many democratic
members are not talking in publio
about it. The impression that the in
cident blade Crisp's re-election to the
speakership certain is not so strong as
it was at first, and the shrewdest ob
servers have ' come to the conclusion
that the speakership, like the extra
session question, will be decided by
Mr. Cleveland. They argue that the
average democratic member of Ihe
next house will naturally want to
get as much patronage for his constit
uents as possible, and that he is not
likely to start out by offending Mr.
Cleveland, the man from whom he ex
pects the favors lo make him solid in
his district, by voting against tus
wishes in the speakership contest.
Tia a sordid and selfish argument but
it is very human all the same.
I he design for the equestrian statue
of Gen. Logan that is lobe erected in
this city has been selected. The suc
cessful artiBl is Mr. Franklin Simons,
the furrous American sculptor. There
:s available lor this statue $oi,UUU,
?50,000 of which was appropriated by
congress and the rest donated by Gen.
Logan's comrades of the G. A. It. and
the Army of the Tennessee. It is the
intention of the committee having the
matter in charge, of which Secretary
Elkins is chairman, to make this the
Hnest equestrian statue ia the city of
Washington.
At last the nonse has taken up and
passed one of the regular appropria
tion bills Ihe army, liepreatmtati.e
Anthony, of Texas, csused quite a
stir in the bouse when the bill was
first taken up, by offering an amend
ment that no person drawing a pen
sion from the government should be
allowed to draw any pay from the ap
propriation. It was not adopted.

Tbe State Board of Equalization Will
Take a Spin Over the State.
At the meeting of the board of
equalization yesterday a form of cer
tificate for tbe assessors lo give the
correct valuatiou of mortgages was
adopted and the secretary was author
ized to have them printed aud for
warded to each assessor.
Several communications were dis
posed of and one from Attorney-General
Chamberlain was spread upon the
minutes. It was a reply to the board's
query, ("How many separate and dis
tinct classifications can be recognized
by this board in equalizing personal
property?" and informed the board
that such classification as shown by
the form of assessment roll sent oul
by the secretary of state would be suf
ficient to guide it.
At the afternoon session W. G. Hun
ter made a motion, which was earned,
that the board leave Poitland Friday
morning for a trip to Eastern Oregon,
for the purpose of obtaining informa
tion from counties along the road as
to values and methods of assessing.
The secretary was then instructed
to notify tbe county clerks of Baker,
Morrow, Union, Umatilla and Wasco
that the board would be in their re
spective county seats between Friday,
December 16th, and Monday, Decem
ber 19th.
An examination of the rolls of Ba
ker, Clackamas, Columbia, Coos,
Crook, Carry and Douglas counties
revealed the fact that they were de
fective, inasmuch as tbe sum secured
by each mortgage does not appear in
said rolls in tho descriptions of the
assessments of mortgages. Salem

Columbia County, Too.
Washington county, says the Pacific
Builder, appears to be badly in need
of a new jail building. The county
commissioners in session at HilUboro
last week made the following repcrt
on that subject : "We have visited
the countv and city inils. From the
investigation we made of the county
jail we will say that we are in hearty
accord with previous grand juries in
condemning that blot on civilization
known as the Washinton county jail,
as the same is wholly inadequate, un
safe and unhealthy. The cells are so
arranged that there is danger that the
jailer when entering the same will be
attacked by the prisoners. We there
fore recommend that without further
delay, a good, safe, healty and conven
ient brick jail be constructed near or
adjoining the courthouse. By so do
ing the same heater used in heating
the courthouse can-be used to heat
the jail, thus avoiding fire and damp
ness. We further recommend that
tho jail be so constructed that there
will be separate apartments for women,
and also for persons confined as wit
nesses in criminal cases.. We do not
think it humane to confine persons
who are merely held as witnesses in
the same apartment with criminals."
