Assessed Value of Taxable Property in
That Territory.
Walla "Walla, Nov. 21.
The assossable valuation of tax
able property in Washington ter
ritory, as given bv the official re
turns for 1838, is" $S4,G41,548, an
increase of 23,078,808. over 1887,
and a gain of 65,718,026 in ten
years.
Of the thirty-four counties in
the territory tljirty-ono show an
increase, two a decrease and one
appears in the list for the first
time. In the list of counties show
ing an increase Pierce stands first
with a gain of $8,139,712, and San
Juan last with $9,684. Spokane

369, King fourth with $2,579,604,
Walla Walla fifth with $1,562,785
and Adams claims the sixth with
a gain of $535,434.
The counties showing a decrease
are Stevens and Garfield, their loss
being $235,371 and $132,742 re
spectively. The decrease in Ste
vens county is due to the creation
for Okanogan county, which in tho
assessment of 188 was part of
Stevens. The aggregate valuation
of both counties exceeds the 1887
valuation of Stevens $60,391, an
amount which should really be
credited to Stevens as an increase
Okanogan, with an assessed val
uation of $295,762, is the county
appearing in the list for the first
time.
The counties reporting the
largest assessed valuation are:
King, 815,013,795; Pierce, $14,
621,842; Spokane, $7,242,509;

Walla, $6,754,940; Lincoln, $2,
338,043; Clarke, $1,290,970; Co
lumbia, $2,825,100.
The county reporting the least
amount of taxable property is
Skamania, with a valuation of
$170,078.

the territory ($84,641,548) the

ties Adams, Asolin, Columti.i,
DouglaB, Franklin, Garfield, Kit
titas, Klickitat, Lincoln, Okano-
ean, Spokane, Stevens, Walla
Walla, Whitman and Yakima-
add the remaining $37,247,581, a
difference of $10,146,38C in favor
of the western division.

Japan is of Asia and still not of
Asia. Five thousand miles and
fourteen days from San Francisco.
It is 12,000 miles by ship from
Liverpool through the Suez canal.
It is five days from Yokohama to
Hongkong and yet some parts are
so near the Asiatic continent that
you can cross in a few hours in a
canoe. Two aays' sail will bring
you into Corea and Kamschatka is
- . m m .
within a tew nours' journey ot the
northern borders of Japan. It is
a land of islands and the chain
which constitutes it extends, says
one authority, a distance of 2,000
miles. Most of these islands are
small, but the country all told has
enough territory for a big nation
and several of its islands are big
ger than ' many of our American
states. The island of Hondo,
which is the main part of the coun
try, and the one in which the big
cities are located, has 25,000,000
population, and the area of Japan
all told is bigger' than" Italy, and
you oou'd lose' Prussia insido of it.
All tho territory of Great Britain
and Ireland arc not equal to
Japan, and the state of New York
is only one-third its size. The
country has to-day moro people
than we had in 1S70, and its pop
ulation is about equal to that of
Great Britain and Ireland. Ac
cording to the census which has
just been completed Japan has a
population of over 39,000,000.
