THE INDEPENDENT. THURSDAY. . . FEB. 0, 1883 The time is drawing near when the voters of the Hillsboro school district will be called upon to de cide whether we shall hare an ele gant and substantial school build ing to meet the immediate and future requirements of our rapidly populating town and school district, or if the present dilapidated build ing shall stand as a monument to our lack of enterprise a relic of the more progressive period of twenty- five years ago, when the people of the district were of small numerical strength, but "builded for the future." Let us push forward; were the same enterprise displayed to-day as then, a building would be erected in Hillsboro this summer that would reflect credit " upon the enterprise of our people for years to come, and we would feel the result in augmented business, increased population and the rapid advance ment in value of property holdings We are not in favor of raising the necessary funds by immediate taxation upon the property in the - district. It would be advisable to bond the district and secure loan of $10,000 or whatever sum the voters may decide upon, and a sink mg fund could be created tnat in a few years, with the increased wealth of the district, would liquidate the indebtedness without burdening: tax payers. So far as we can learn many of our heaviest taxpayers and the publie of Hillsboro and vicinity are heartily in favor of incurring the indebtedness necessary to put us in possession of such building as shall reflect credit upon the town and the Hillsboro school district. We accompanied the sheriff to East Butte last Friday, on his tour of visiting the several precincts for the purpose of collecting taxes, and were not a little surprised to see him make collections to the amount of more than one thousand dollars, while the attendance was not large. East Butte is in what is termed tbe "sticks." On Monday we were at Greenville, one of the richest and largest prairie districts in the county, and found the collection made by the sheriff to be less than that of East Butte. This is given as a com parison between tbe timber and prairie localities of the county, and shows that while open lands are a desirable possession, the timbered lands possess virtues that bring them on an equality with tbe prairies. Such a showing, though, is doubtless brought about by the greater industry and economy of those residing in the timbered dis tricts The possession of large bodies of prairie lands, upon which little labor need be expended to gain a livelihood, seems to tend to extravagance and slothfulness. When once the owners of open lands are awakened to a sense of the necessity of substituting rotation of crops to build up their wheat drained lands, we mav expect a better showing from them. There is too much "landscape" farming on our prairies and not enough culti vation of the soil. The convicts in the New York state prisons are reported as idle in consequence of tbe abolition of the contract labor system. The deficit is the largest since 1878, and is over $C0,000 for the last year. Sing Sing prison, which last year showed a surplus of $75,000, shows a falling off to less than $19,000. The abolition of the contract system has done the labor agitators no good; but it has demoralized the convicts by keeping them in a state of en forced idleness, and yet these labor agitators will be satisfied with nothing short of prison idleness. To keep convicts in idleness and to turn them loose upon society in a weaker, more miserable and de praved condition than when they entered confinement, on the stupid plea of their competition with free labor is called public wisdom, we suppose; it certainly is not public economy:-. The doctors of all the great cities might just as logically object to the founding of "free hospitals" as an outrage on private practice, as for labor to pretend that "convict labor" is an outrage on free labor. Er. Although the people of Manitoba were defeated last year in their effort to break the monopoly of the Canadian Pacific and build an inde pendent road to the United States border, there is a prospect of their gaining their point thorugh the action of the Dominion gov ernment. The Canadian authori ties recognize the discontent caused by the monopoly as something too important to be disregarded, and action will probably be taken at the coming meeting of the parliament at Ottawa to buy back from the Canadian Pacific company the ex clusive privileges granted it. That transcontinental enterprise promises to be a very expensive undertaking to the government. The effect to divert traffic from its legislative channels involves too much of a strain to be sustained. NO TIME FOR DIVISION. Any bill on which Mr. Carlisle and Mr. Randall can agree will be accepted by the country. Louisville Courier-Journal. This distinct declaration from the eading revenue-reform journal of the southwest, expresses the hope and belief of every democrat in the country. It has been emphasized by an announcement in the Nashville American, a protective tariff paper, that the issue this year will not be the tariff, for the democrats will have compromised their differences and settled this question. The fight will be renewed resistance by the demo crats to the centralizing tendencies of the republican party, and to their vengeful and sectional theories of government. Augusta, Georgia, Chronicle. M. de Lesseps' Panama canal scheme sustained a severe blow last week when the French ministers unanimously decided to refuse his application for authority to issue lottery loans to aid in the construc tion of the canal. As a result of this action Panama canal shares fell off considerably on the Bourse. M. de Lesseps. however, does not appear to have been particularly discouraged by this action of the ministers. As a counter movement be immediately issued a circular in which he declared that he was pre pared to appeal directly to the public with a class of bonds giving the fullest guarantees. He gave notice, also, that he declined to accept the government's decision in tbe matter of the lottery, on the ground that to do so would be to acquiesce in all the "calumnies" against the canal, ami he urged the shareholders to request the deputies for their respec tive districts to bring the matter before the chamber for a full public inquiry. This counter-action of M. de Lesseps has had the effect of sending up the shares again, but there cau be no doubt that his position is weak in the extreme. According to the Providence Journal, under the old license law almost every saloon in that city was closed at midnight, and on Sunday was kept closed, there being only a few places where liquor could be procured on the Sabbath. Now, however, under prohibition, IK) per cent, of the saloons are kept open twenty-four hours a day for seven days in the week, and the retail dealers say the Sunday sales are largely in excess of those on week davs. These facts may be un palatable to the prohibitionists, but there will be considerable difficulty in explaining them away. Tbe condition under the prohibitory law in the state at present is simply free rum, plus the open violation and contempt of statute law. Governor Semple, of Washington territory, and all the councilmen and members who voted for woman suffrage, received suspicious looking packages, inscribed "for the legis lative ball, in hoc signo vinces." The packages contained fleecy gauze petticoats. One councilman was particularly favored, as he received in addition to the petticoat a pair of cornets and a wire bustle. Van couver Inde)endsnt. The Seattle and Lake Shore Rail road company has sold $3,000,000 worth of bonds in New York, and will apply the money to construction during the coming season. The Seattle Coal and Iron company has also disposed in the east of bonds to the value of $1,000,000. It is not alone the people of Seattle who have faith in the town. The fund for a monument to (Jen. Grant has reached the sum of $120,000, which is at least $40,000 more than is actually needed. For the last three meetings there has been no quorum of directors present; and the .next thing we shall hear from it will be that the treasurer is living at Toronto or Montreal and "waiting for the thing to blow over." The Victoria, B. C-, Times says that the people on Prince Edward Island are almost on the verge of a rebellion because of . the govern ment's failure to maintain communi cation between them and the mainland. Isolation upon an island through such a measure, is similar to banishment restraint of liberty. The New York World, the largest newspaper plant in existence, has just put in a monster machine, the king of all printing presses, that prints over fifty thousand eight- page papers in an nour. it was built by the Hoe company. The treaty between Italy and Germany stipulates that if France attacks either countrv the other shall send an army of 300,000 men to the French frontier. The American consul at Manila gets $2000 a year; the Germau, French, and Belgian consuls there get $6000 each, while Great Britain pays $8000. Colonel Cash, of Chicago, is out for Blaine, but let no one invest on that account, for Colonel Mooney, of Mississippi, is for Cleveland. Alia. SEW TO-DAY. Notice of Final Settlement.
