THE INDEPENDENT. Thursday August 3, 1S7C. Assessment- A Guard Fcr the Pocr and Honest. wheat to dispose of. It may Le stat- j swer to this, ami subterfuge and ed that the present condition of the j evasion will not turn &.sido the force maiket for irrain esssels favor this of this conclusion. The assessor If the suggestions in regard to as sessing property made by a writer in the Orcjonian, whose letter we publish elsewhere, wero put into force by legislative enactment they would improve the present mode ma terially. Under the present system the pool man whose little all comes directly under the eye of the. asses sor is taxed all it is worth while the rich, dishonest men in hundreds of ways evade the law and escape pay ing their just share of the burden of running the State Government. But the writer does not go the bottom of the question. He does not tell us how to mate assessors as bcss property at its own true vulue. Tf .TV din .Tcitips owns laud that is worth :?30 or $10 per acre it should not be assessed at fl(Jor?15as has been the custom this country and the rest of the State, while on the other hand if John Smith has a mortgage on the Kfimfilfind it i-t taxed at its face. If land, stock, etc., bo ass3.ssed at one half or two-thirds its value then money should be assessed in the eame manner. All kinds of prop erty should be taxed at their real values and thero should bo a law xnado compelling assessors to observe this just rule. But this is not alh Wo need a system of equalizing taxes through out the State, so that 0110 county shall not have to -pay a higher rate of tax than another, as is often the case in the present irregular and foolish system of leaving the whole question of taxation to tho county assessors. Undev such a system, if it can be called a system, of course each assessor would naturally put down the rate of taxation as low as possible in his own county in order to save it from paying more than its share of tax into the State Treasury. "What we want, and what every oth er State that has any system of taxa tion has, is a State board of equali zation. Nothing short of this . will equalize tho burdens of taxation throughout tho State, and our legis lators just as well take the bull by the horns at once. The repeal of the law providing for a State board of equalization by the last Legislature was a mistake. The law was defect ive and should have been amended, not repeal 1. Seveial gentlemeu went up to Salem that year with the idea that reform meant repeal, and bo they repealed one of the must important reform measures on our statute books.

It is reported that at the convention there are 120 delegates, who repre sent over 3,000,000 in capital and some two hundred tons of wheat. About the Assessment Law. A correspondent of the Oregonian makes the following excellent sug gestions concerning the assessment law in this State which we publish for the re-perusal of the law-makers just elected in this county. "Before the Legislature sits, and while the rdans and ideas of legisla tion are in thir formative state, I would beg brief space to make a sug gestion with reference to the matter of assessment for taxes and the laws relating thereto, which will very considerably occupy the attention of the members at the next session. While it is to be admitted that the present assessment law is a botch and abortive, and gives much op portunity for injustice and fraud being suggestive of the blind lead- in" the blind still x uenevc a iew amendments to it, with inquisitojial authority delegated to tho assessor, will make it quite as effectual as is necessary to secure a just and exact assessment of all properties, both real and personal within the State. Blanks should be furnished all tax able persons, banks, institutions of deposit and corporations, on which thev must be required to enter in detail, at a uniformly given time, all real estate by snb-divitions.all notes aud other evidences of indebtedness naming the payer and payee, and all other items of taxable property in detail. Indebtedness must be ren dered as minutely. If the person owes money, whom do you owe it to, and in what amount, nnd where does the person whom you owe re side? This system of assessment is full of checks and balances and serves to restrain the propensity for loose statements, now in vogue in giving in rrvoss items of assets and illdebt- ... 0. edncss. This statement must be sworn and subscribed to before a of its authority, and while the asses- sor often smells game ahead, he "cannot enter in" pursuit cf it for want of a few words delegating the authority. I submit, Mr. Editor and legislators, should it not be giv en him? Feeling confident none but those having ulterior designs, in contrari ety to an equal and exact assessment can oppose it, I ask the judgment of the people thereon.

The account t ites that Crooli lost nearly .300 soldiers and was driven across the creek under a terrible lire from the In dians, and that the fight was more of a slaughter tl.an a battle. It is further stated that the Indians are grtatly elated over the victory and intend after driving the miners from the Black Hills, to clean out all the agencies in the northern country, and all stations along the Faciiic railroad The dispatch is so worded that it cannot be stated whether this is an account f the old battle or one recently. It is therefore yivcii for what it is worth. TELEGRAPHIC SUM Mil AY. Mountain Side. July 20, 1&7C. IT.iv harvest is about over with a full average yield and farmers have commenced harvesting their winter wheat which promises a fair crop. Spring grain looks w ell. Some dogs got among Mr. Brooks' sheep last Sunday night and killed 8 and wounded 11 others.

The California farmers have de termined to take a stand ngain'.t the shipping rings and middlemen iri that State. "Ye say, hurrah for tho farmers and hope they will force the monopolists to the wall. The following dispatch will show that thev have taken n bold stand, and we hope will bo able to maintain it: San fa.vxcisco, July 27. The Grangers from the interior finished their business yesterday and ad journed. Their meeting was secret and the proceedings were not made, public but enough has been di vulged to enable a positive state ment to be made that fanners will ship their own wheat. No trouble is anticipated in obtaining all the vessels they may need. The meet ing was made up of representative men among the Grangers, most of those present being persons of wealth, well able to ship or to hold lipir wlir.if. iistliev may decide. It was tho unanimous conclusion that this course of action should be person duly qualified to take an oath, and any material misstatement found to exist in the exhibit bhall make liable the offender in exempla ry fine and punishment. Under this plan, where a party reports that he owes parties outside the county, it shall be the duty of tho assessor to notify the assessor of the said oth er county to see whether the person so reported upon has included the said item of assats in his statement. The desire of the debtor to estab lish his indebtedness will be the great promoter of exactness in this particular, ami I cm confident a law giving an r.sses-sor inquisitorial au thority will add twenty-five million dollars to the tax roll of the State. Banks and institutions of deposit must be made to make a detailed statement of the number and names of depositors, their several places of residence and amounts to their cred it, at a given date, which statement must be full, positive and complete; and a failure to comply with the condition as above named, either in the case of banks, institutions of de posit, corporations, or of individu als, must subject such offender to a penalty of ?1U0 for such lapse or failure to conform to this requie ment: and the assessor shall have power to appoint successive oher dates, within which lime tho obsti nate tax-payer shall conform to the requirements of the law, with a pen alty of 61U0 for each failure to coin- tried and after uiuc-h controversy on the part of his Letter half, tho cur j was condem nid and idiot to death.

Up to tho present time farmers have been unable to get money from city capitalists, so close ly has floating capital been covered, even upon the best security. By shipping their own wheat farmers can, when the cargo is finished and insured, obtain an advance of 7o percent, of its value from English houses that make a business of loan ing money in that way. This mar gin can be loaned out among them selves and help other shipments, thus effectually blocking any combi nation that niay seek to control the wheat crop of the State. So thor oughly convinced are the represent atives of the meeting of the practi cability of this arrangement that they will all recommend its adop tion at their different granges, and urse perfect unamitv of action on ply, until a compliance is had with the law as above detailed. Ihis ex hibit of authority shows the bare up lifted arm of the law, but a compli ance with the stated terms seems as "downy pillows" are. Some may say, and the rich will doubtless so urge ,that this is espion age and inquisition, I would ask what is a tax-gatherer's position but an inquisitorial one? The assessor comes to a man of moderate means, and he is enabled by the man's sur roundings and his knowledge of him to place down every item of his as sets and of indebtedness. Is it not iust and fair, that he shall be em powered with authority to look just as closely and minutely into the af fairs of the capitalist, who so far has managed to weave an Ariadn web about an assessor, and entangle and obstruct him in his inquiry in this di rection? There can be but one an- A German writer tells us-just as if everybody didn't know it as well as he does that when benzovlnaph lamid is treated with nitric acid, two isomeric monitiobeir.ov lnaphtylami pil are formed one yielding motiono- ltamidobenzonaphtvlamide and the other adyurolwiizousi innlonaminieu.

Wheat has declined 23 cents on tho bushel in Chicago, owing to the lut in foreign markets and the fine crop prospect in England and t ranee What sells at 73; in Chicago now against $1,05 or $1,00 at tho Crst of the mouth.
