With' 'three skimming stations and their attendant expense its A mighty poor business for a cream ery tovturoont JnJy 400 pdunds'-of butter per day, especially for one thifjU&l been running four or five years. Why, our little creamery at Independence is making 200 pounds bfgilt edge butter, nd its only been established less than ej months, ; Ortgoa's New Tax Law, The following letter by Secretary of State punbar, explaining the features of the new tax law, will prove of interest: "Under the new law the state will have no interest ia oouuty assess ments or valuations hereafter. There can be no excuse for not complying with the assessment laws in the fu ture, which provide that all prop erty shall be assessed at its true cash' value; "which is held to mean the amount the property would tell for at voluntary sale mad in the ordinary course of business, "The new law referred to is en titled 'an act to proscribe the meth od in which the state taxes shall be apportioned between the several counties of the state,' and provides among other things, that in order to ascertain the proportion of taxes to be paid by the several counties, the state officers shall ascertain from the reports of expenditures of the several counties, on file in the office of the Secretary of State, the average amount of expenditures in each county during a period of five years, and each county shall pay such proportion of said state taxes as its average' amount of expendi ture (or said period bears to the to tal amount of expenditure in all the eoun ties of the state; such com putations to be made in January, 1905, and in January each fifth year thereafter. ,' , "Until the January 1905, com putation, the proportion of the state taxes to be paid by tne several counties shall be as set out in a ta ble which is based upon the assess ments of the several counties for the past five years and will stand as fixed by the set, unless changed by subsequent legislatures, until Janua; 1905, when the apportion ment of the state revenue will be based upon the average expenditure in each county as above noted. "The new law does not apply to the state levy already made for 1901. M- ,- Beginning with January, 1905, the computations will be made on the basis-of the average expend! ture made by each county in the administration of its affairs for the years 1901 to 1904, 'inclusive, ex cepting expenses for roads and highwaya. It was presumed that a premium will thus be set upon economy; for tne object of each county will be, of course, to lower its expenditures not only for econo my's sake, but to reduce the percen tage of the state's revenue which it it will be obliged to pay. , "The act will in the future do away with ' decreased valuations which have been returned by asses sors each year since 1893; it having been the policy heretofore for each county to endeavor to 'get even' with some other county that may have returned a lower valuation the preceding year. This course will not have to be pursued in the near future, but the assessments may be doubled or trebled so far as affecting any other county. JJnder this law it will not be necessary for publio opinion to support low valu ations in the future." Gen. William Booth, bead of the Salvation Army, has passed bis three score and ten and has two years to the good. Minister Wu Ting Fang, who rarely says anything, has written s letter to Emperor William, advis ing him to keep quiet. ... : Teddy will not accompany ths president on his western trip, but that is no reason why he shouldn't end him bis rough rider uniform. With '250,000 men, 60,000 of whom are mounted, the British ought to be able to eat up the Boers without feeling it. Somehow they don't succeed in doing so, however. ; In Fuaston's cats' Uncle 8am hat paid the freight to the man, who de- ivered, the goods.f In Sampson's case, however, this subject has been thrashed out." , ? ' One of our champion prize-fight era is to marry a beautiful young woman with "changeful eyes.1 They will probably be black and blue most of the time.' V - Senator Piatt.', of Connecticut, auhjor of the resolution relating to Cuba, says the essence of the policy is that the Cubans shall recognize the right of the United States to maintain the independence of Cuba and stable government in the is and. . The. proposition is, simple, reasonable and, in fact, a necessity. ' Hon. H. W. Corbett, who was a candidate for the United States sen ate, declares that on the first day of next January he will start in and make a fight for the election at the next session of the legislature. He will see that clubs are organized in every county in the state, and he proposes to make a hard finht and With a few dark horses in the field the next session of the legislature promises to be more tropical than theUtV WASaiKSTOlf LITTE9L Washington, D. O, Apr. 15, 1901 Senator Cockerel, who has Just returned from a trip through Cuba, talks very interestingly of what be taw. Among other things, he said : "I was very agreeably surprised in finding so much untilled land. ComparaUvjely but small portion of the soil of Cuba is in actual cul. tivatlon. Many products which would undoubtedly flourish there are not even seen or cultivated. It is capable of being a most produc tive country lor all kinds of fruits and vegetables as well as for sugar cans and tobacco. Ths island has a large number of harbors. From what I could learn of our officers who have been in the vsrious wa ters around ths island, there are as many good harbors at in all the coast lines of the U. 8. As to tho social conditions in Cuba one agreeably surprised by a visit. 1 did not see a drunken man during all the time I wu on the island. In all my travels through the cities and upon ths island I saw no beg gars, with ths exception of two very old colored men and a Chinaman, who were on the platforms at the stations ready to receive contribu tions. So tar as I could Judge the people were well dressed for that climate and all had plenty to eat, Governor General Wood seems to have been remarkably successful in bringing order and cleanliness to ths island." The senator declined to say anything at this time aa to the opinions he formed of the polit leal situation in Cuba, further than that he believed that the Cubans would eventually accept the oondi tions. Mr. Felix Schuster, governor of the Union bank of London, who has reached Washington Jn course of a leisurely tour of the country whioh is to Include the Pacific Coast, is evidently a very level headed sort of sn Englishman When asked to give bis impressions of ths United States, hs replied! "A great many of your people corns over to England and it seems to me there ought to be tome reclpro city in this sort of thing. I have come to America to observe the fi nancial and trade conditions, but do not care to say anything in de tail of my trip, for I have been here only a short time. Over in Eng land we have harsh names for those people who visit here a few days snd go - back to their homes and write volutely of the American people.; My impressions of the country thus far have been very favorable." .'"'. ... Members of thecommlssion which the Cuban Constitutional Conven tion has decided to send to Wash ington will have - a good time per tonally, and that will probably be the only result of their trip. They can accomplish nothing in Wash ington , that they could not do in Havana just as well.' Although the President did not like the idea of having this commission sent to Washington, because ha considers it a reflection on General Wood for the Convention to hate assumed that anything different from what General Wood hat said would be said by him, he will receive the Commission and will listen to what its members have to say and will give instructions to have its mem bert properly treated while in Washington. His own talk to them will be confined to telling them that the conditions offered by the Piatt amendment was a Act of Congress and ss such is not subject to any change or modification whatever by any other power than Congress. Bishop' Turner is still working away at his immigration to Liberia scheme. We don't want to impugn his motives, but is he sure that he is not influenced by the fact that four-fifths of the negroes who' ate pxying for their tickets on the In stallment plan fail to pay up and forfeit all they have put in? !. s.iS'C"Siste'-)'t'' Does the If not tomethintf must be t wrong with its food.
