In early days taxes were not very high and the assessors were easily evaded, of ten; but now the burden grows .more serious. The question of pub lic revenues is the most important ono of the day. Is there no way of raising tho revenues but by taxing industry? Does it not seem wrong to let the idler, the non- producer go freo uml iust us soon as a man begins to do any good to (lno him with taxes in proportion as ho is industri ous? There goes the idlo loafer or vagrant utterly worthless to the world. Yonder rolls tho millionaire in his line carriage drawn by his thousand dollar horses. The assess or may havo as little to do with one as with tho other. Hero is tho man of industry, Ills faco grimed with dust and wrinkled with care. lie empolys many men ; ho is tho life of his community. By his labor all kinds of commodities nro being ex changed and transformed. Him tho assessor is after in his most in quisitorial manner. Him, tho collectorkeepshisoyeon. As though lie were a criminal lie is lined. In stead of encouragement and reward ho is discouraged, hampered and punished. It is a queer world, any how. UOAIi JMONOl'I.Y. Tins Haves Valley Advertiser Of San Francisco thus speaks : "During tho past winters, the damnable monopolies of coal and Its carriano lias caused more sullering than it is possible to describe, short of a volume as big as tho holy Bible. Mutter created by tho Almighty for -tho uso of his children as fuel, which costa in labor, when loaded on tho cars, Home seventy-five conts per ton, taken from tho mines along tho Mis souri River, carried to Kansas City, less than fifty miles, can not be had short of five or six dollars ! And out in the bil..ard regions of Kau nas, Nebraska and Dakota, say ton uouurs. Ami mane purposely so scarce, at that the people had to either perish (a mtuiv did) or rise en masso, nd tnko it by force. "Coal all around In quantities in finite -buthold under such hard con ditions, thatthese laborers who miiio it are under martial law, as at Jkwlor, Mo., at ono end while the consumers aro dying of cold, or forced Into Mghwny robbery, as at various points along tho railways In Kansas and Nebraska last winter. "Who gets tho five dollars per ton ? the .hundred dollars per car load, more or less, that it sells for? Isn't It nice?" A TltOrilLIMOaiK DECISION. It seems to bo a remarkable decis ion of tho supremo court of tho United BUtes which gives to Edi tion tho exclusive use on certain Elec tric Light patents. There seems no doubt as to the- claim that these miiiu principles iiurt methods wore patented in Europe long before Edl hou obtained hlft. The patent law of this country declare that no patent shall issue if the principle has been even published in ny book or publi cation before tho application for It has Ihhmi made. But our courts bcem to havo disregarded the law entirely, us It did in tho celebrated (joodyetir rubber patent, tho princi ple of wliloh hud been known nnd used in HI lidos tan foragw, nnd was published In Asiatic Rweurohos, a oeutury ago. This deolulou 1 going to make much iliflUuilty. NOVEL FUELS. The people in some of the great peach-raising valleys of California aro using peach stones for fuel. They burn as well as coal, and sell readily at six dollars per tou. This reminds us that a stove called the trash-burner is now going into use in Dakota, Nebraska nnd Kansas. It being well known that nineteen- twentieths of all tho heat Is lost In most stoves this is made to save and use it all. It is a large drum stove with an apartment on cither side filled witli hay or straw or paper or othor combustibles baled tight by a leverage system In the apartments. As soon ns ono is burned out, in from four to twelve hours, as the weather may require, the other is lit, while tho empty one may be filled in a minute. Hundreds of promi nent citizens who havo used this declare that for the future they will not burn coal or wood if given to them. Tiio Southern Tad fie has carried an average of fifteen thousand pas sengers both ways, per month dur ing the winter. Of these an excess of five thousand per month lias come West, and full one half of them havo come as second class. Three years ago, during the rate war, the same road carried an average of six ty thousand per month both ways and that too although an excess of twenty to thirty dollars was charged on each ticket, returnable at the end of the line. A girl at Harrisburg, Pa., par alyzed her face and her lower jaw by incessant gum chewing. Thou sands of youuir fellows have par alyzed their brains by incessant cigarette smoking. Splendid services in honor of La Salle aro to be performed in some of tho Catholic churches of San Fr ancisco, tills week. CUSS G0VEKNJ1EXT. Editor Capital Jeurnal: There is perhaps no better Illustra tion of the law making of Oregon than the present water-steal and homestead law, the ono to insure a pittance to the family of the unfor tunate whoso toil fails to provide for them tho necessaries of life, in fact tho very people who feed, house and clothe us. Whilo on tho other hand, a largo majority of tho saloons vote for a public grab that would deal out injustico to unborn generations of tollers. And our "great nnd only" newspapers advocate the passage of sucli laws. A pleasant aspect to pre sent to the throng of honest toilers who are invited toour glorious coun try. And to see tho money sharks gather around tho body politic on such occasions as tho scavenger birds around tho prostrate form of the an cient home. Verily, this will bo an illustrious page in the future history of Oregon, and will rank high wiih much of tho by-gono legislation. Poor youths, following tho ex ample set, find themselves Incarcer ated, for long terms, for pilfering even food to eat, whilo older and more hardened criminals steal thous ands and stay, much shorter terms. Long steals make short stops, and tho rule should be applied to law makers as well. And tho men who had tho stamiuy to vote ugalnstsuch, to step aside from tho time-honored path of legislation, should bo sup ported by every honest toller . Then we shall soon strike from our eodo tho dlsgraceAil laws thnt confront every honest toller and making It criminal to bo poor and Incarcerating us without a trial. "We can only say, with one of old, "Doll ver us from our friends." Justice. Salem. Or., Feb. 11, 18S0.
