A FORMER WILSON BILL.
Colton's "Lifo of Henry Clay," Vol. 1,
contains a description Of the times of
1837, the culmination of the most ap
palling and disastrous financial revul
sions ever known a period of time fol
lowing the tariff act of 1833, which was
much like the Wilson bill of today :
"The ruin came quickly and fearfully.
There were few that could save them
selves. Property of every description
was parted with at prices that were as
tounding, and as for he currency, there
was scarcely any at all. In some parts
of Pennsylvania the people were obliged
to divide bank note9 into halves, quar
ters, eighths and so on, and agree from
necessity to' use them as money. In
Ohio, with all her abundance, it was
hard to get money to pay taxes. The
sheriff of Muskingum county,' , as stated
by the Guernsey Times, in the summer
of 1842, sold at auction one four-horse
wagon at $5.50, ten hogs at 6 - cents
each, two hoasea (said to be worth $50 to
$75 each) at $2 each, two cows at $1 each,
a barrel of sugar at $1.50, and a store of
goods at that rate. In Pike county, Mo.
as stated by the Hannibal Journal, the
sheriff sold' three horses at $1.50 each,
one large ox at 12VX cents, five cows, two
steers and one calf, the lot at . $3.25 ;
twenty sheep at Z cents each, twenty
four hogs, the lot at 25 cents ; one right
day clock at $z.au ; lot ot tobacco, seven
, or eight hogsheads, at $4; three stacks
. of hay, each at 25. cents, and one stack
of fodder at 25 cents." .
" The whole country went into liquida
tion : bank loans and discounts fell off
more than one-half ; the money loss to
the country was not less than $1,000,000-
000, to say nothing of the tremendous
strain upon the moral sense of the
people.- All prices fell off ruinously;
production was greatly diminished, and
in many departments practically ceased j
thousands of workingmen were idle,
with no hope of employment, and their
families sufferingfrom want. Our farm
ers were without markets; their' pro
ducts rotted in their barns ; their lands
teeming with rich harvests; were sold by
the sheriff for debts and taxes. The
tariff which robbed our industries of
protection failed to supply" the govern
ment with " necessary revenues. The
national treasury, in consequence, was
bankrupt and the credit of the nation
very low. - - . -
In addition to a review of the Cleve-;
land administration by ex-Gov. Russell
(dem.) of Massachusetts-and Senator I
Cullom (Rep.) of Illinois, the May j
Forum will contain a discussion of cn- j
usual opportuneness and point at a time
when "armies" of tramps are marching
towards Washington of the question
whether the state should give aid to the
unemployed, by Dr. Stanton Colt, of
New York, who favors state aid, and by
Mr. T. McGregor Means, who argues
that state aid means socialism.
What official is to blame for not collect
ing the road or poll tax from residents of
this city? In the country hardly a per
son escapes paying this tax or working
the roads, and yet there are over 500
people in this city who should pay a
poll tax. If this tax was collected each
year, and expended on roads, it would
make them vastly better. The country
supervisors are scrupulous about enforc
ing the payment of - this tax.. Why is
the city direlict in the matter? . A few
months ago when the city was employ
ing its more unfortunate citizens to
work on the rock 'crusher, $2 in labor
was extracted out of each and everyone
of them to pay this tax. v The circum
stance was taken advantage or anq so
far as known, no one else but these im
pecunious men at the city's mercy were
asked to pay. . It is nothing more than
simple justice that all should . pay this
tax. ' Those who cannot afford to work
can pay the money, and those who can
not afford to pay the money can work.
Some officer is neglecting. his duty. .
One of the worst evils connected with
the question of dirt roads is the preval
ent use of narrow wagon tires on heavily
laden wagons, and since it would ' be
such an easy matter for farmers to have
wide-tired wagons by simply demanding
them, it is surprising . they have not al
ready come into general use. Supply
always follows demand, the markets re
spond to the first slight pressure, and if
even a very few farmers would demand
wide-tired wagons, . it would not be six
months until they would te found on
sale at every implement house in the
country. It should require no argument
to convince the intelligent man that the
tendency of a narrow tire on a heavy
wagon is to tear up the surface of a road
way constructed of as loose a material
as ordinary dirt, while 'the tendency of
a wide tire is to compress the material
under it, and thus serve in a large meas
ure, as a road-maker and not as a road
destroyer. A writer who has made
some careful tests bus this to say. on the
subject : "You can start 530 pounds
more with a 3-inch tire across fields
with the same power exerted than with
a lj-mch tire. You can haul 830
pounds more with a 3-inch tire across
fields, with the same amount of power
exerted than you can with a lfrf-inch
tire.". A sensible move has been taken
by the state of Michigan, which might,
with profit, be adopted in Oregon, .that
every farmer using tires over a certain
width on draft wagona shall be entitled
to a rebate of one-half the road tax.

Our consolidated school is progressing
finely under the management of Mr. H.
Lake and Miss Emma Ward. .
But very little' spring grain is raised
here, as we all find fall grain the most
sure and profitable crop. Fall grain is
looking splendid, grass is good and stock

Our sheep shearing crew went to the
Bonney ranch, where they were to be
gin shearing Mr. Bonney's sheep Monday
morning, and another crew will leave
here a week later to begin work. These
shearers bring back from $100 to
$200.00 each and are generally gone
about six. weeks'.
It has just lately been- found out that
Mr. W. T. Hunt, the republican
nominee for constable of Wamic pre
cinct, is not eligible for office, he ' not
being a native born citizen of the United
States, as Texas is his native country.
Your reporter is not personally acquaint
ed with the facts in this case but traced
the authority back as far as Tom Driver,
and that settles it.
Your 15-year-old . hobo infant, just

blacked an eye of - Joe Douglas . -and
shut the other,- got fired from school,

school again in the morning.

A lady playing- the leading- part in a
melodrama carried with her a very cross
Spanish poodle, which slept in her
trunk while she was engaged in the
rlav. The little doc was a sound
sleeper usually, but this evening- was'
an exception. : lie was wiae awaue ana
sitting unobserved : in the first en
trance " watched the play when the
heavy man seizes the leading lady,
shrieking: "Then, curse you! I'll
strangle you!" The poodle sprang
onto the stacre, procured a firm hold on
- . , -
the heavy villain's trousers and jerked
away at them until bis mistress was
oblig-ed to arise -from her knees, stop
sobbing- and plead with the villain to
"spare her life," and return the poodle
to the dressing-room and lock him in.
