eral Assembly of the Presbyterian
Church, South, will begin its sessions

tion of the union of all Prebyterian

Southern branches split off on the slav
ery question. If Its members hold to
the same views its tho Rev. Robert r.
Farrls, D. D., of St. Louis, last year's

Mr. Grant Is not a, politician. Hels
a non-partisan reformer, believes In a
high tariff, prohibition mid protec-'
tlon to tho homo. Qu thu silver ques
tion, he says a vu-M amount of dust
and fog Is thrown hi, the air. lie says
there I no more reason In a double
standard of valup.than jif a double
standard of veracity or veghts and
measurers.
On tho Be v. BrnwiAcise hi 'FiU-o,
lio s,iys: Brown win lint proven guilty. ,
Ho may have been wrong, hut it was
not proven on hlui. It reminded him
of the man accused of stealing a ket
tle. He never 3tole It, It was broken
when he took It, It was mended when
he brought It back. 'The Jury found
him not guilty, but ronmiinended that
he not do it again. t
On thu Catiiolle question, Dr. Grant
said: "I have had a great deal to do
wllli the Catholic question. I oppose '
the machine, and jet, sympathize
will, tlin fibrillin t IihiiiriIvi4. fin imn. I
eral principles, I ninfu Democratic
Scientist not a chrlstan scientist
n student of art and nature mid If I
had my way, 1 would conduct achurch
absolutely Democratic. No test of
membership, no form of uniting with
It or leaving It, people absolutely freo
to come or go."
Dr. Grant Is an interesting talker
not a finished lecturer or man of great
literary polish, but an original and In- j
dependent thinker, who expresses
himself fearlessly. ,
Who Pays Taxes?
As tho question often arises as to
who must pay the taxes on property
sold before the taxes are paid wo quote
thu law on tho subject, being from
the Codo of Oregen: "
Sec. 248(1. As between tho grantor
and grantco of any land, when there
Is no express agreement us to which
shall pay the taxes that may bo as
sessed thereon before conveyance, if
such land is conveyed at tho lime or
prior to the dato of tho warrant auth
orizing the collection of such taxes,
then tho grantee shall pay the same;
but If conveyed nftcr that dato, tho
grantor shall pay them.
