OXR CENT A WREKTAXK S H irnprecetlriitedly Low Rate to Me Assessed This Year It will pay every taxpayer in the state to do a little figuring on Gover- Odell's tax rate of twelve one- hundredths of a mill and ascertain list what it means to h'lim in dollars md cents. The total amount to be raised for state taxes in this state ntside of tine city of New York this ear will be only $235,975 and when it realized that this amount is to be raised on a total property valuation running; into the billions of dollars it is at once apparent that the 'bills of individual taxpayers must of necessi- ty be small. Just how small these in- dividual tax bills will be can be shown by a little example in arithmetic A tax of twelve one-hundredths of a mill means a tax of $12 on $0.00,000. which makes it at once apparent that comparatively ferw people in the state be called upon to contribute $12 a year 'to the support jof the state. It is safe to assume that the great mass of taxpayers in tihis state—the man in the city who owns a modest (home and the man in the country who supports iself and his family on a few acres of land—'are taxed on a valuation of $5,000 or less. Under the tax rate made possible by 'Governor Odell and the Republican legislatures of 1901 nd 1902 the man in New York state •ho is worth less than $5,000 will have to do considerable fancy figuring to find that he is paying anything for the maintenance of the state govern- ment. The man Who is worth $5,000 will be taxed, under the rate of 1902, 60 cents a year, or aibout 1 cent a week, as nearly as it can foe figured, not an ex- orbitant sum when the benefits of citizenship in the greatest state in the Union are taken into consideration.-— any Journal.

W. •reeley, were printed by the war de- partment, the edition barely supply- ing the demands of the army posts. The National Geographic society, (however, obtained the plates and has printed a large number for public distribution. The size of the map is five feet two inches by three feet; the scale, fifteen miles to the inch. Every town or hamlet known toy the Jesuits or re- ported to the war department by its many officers throughout the islands is indicated. In short, it is a com- pilation of everything now known about the Philippine Archipelago. A glance at the map' shows how much exploration is needed in large sections. For instance, on the Island of Mindoro only a few names along the coast are given. The interior of the island is a blank. The tremendous progress made by the American government in the is- lands is graphically illustrated by the red lines, indicating cables, telegraphs and telephones, which penetrate to nearly all corners of the ardhipelago-. Nearly 7,000 'miles of wire are now {strung, whereas three yealrs ago there was not one mile in service. All the telegraph lines are owned by the .goveromenit and operated by a government department—the United States signal corps. The stations are open to messages of a nrivate i commercial character, while from the stations rioted as military only mes- sages of a military nature can be sent. This map is the first map of the Philippines that has (been preared by American officials. The spelling of nalm^s is that adopted by the United iStates board on Geographic names. PHYSICIANS DR.

Its author is J. T. Marshall, of Leads, England, and its application is to the valves which let steam into the cylinders. Acording to the Lon- don Times, the new mechanism has been thoroughly tested on an engine belonging to the Great Northern road, locomotives of the same weight and type but having the old fashioned val- ve gear being tried simultaneously on the same section of road, for purposes of comparison. In one trial the old engine took 57.71 pounds of coal to the mile and the new performed the same with 41.- 21.

Pro- duction, however, has been almost equal to the demand; and although im- ports have not Wholly ceased they are practically offset by exports of Cali- fornia raisins, which are now sent in small and experimental quantities to all parts of the world. The raisin-producing section of Cal- ifornia comprises ten counties —• Fresno, Kern, Kings, Maderia, Mercer, Orange, San 'Barnardino, San Diego. Tulare and Yolo.

Rear Admiral Melville will avail himself of these privileges. He plans have the first test with liquir fuel carried on with a land boiler in Wash- ington at the same establishment where the bureau has been conduct- ing extensive tests with coal. This will enable a comparison under sim- ilar conditions between coal and oil as fuel. These tests (will *be followed by experiments with liquid fuel on shipboard, where, of course, the con- ditions are much imore severe. In these tests Rear Admiral Melville hopes to make use of a guniboat, a torpedo 'boat and a torpedo boat de- stroyer, which will enable observa- JS to be made under varying con- ditions, and if the results are suffi- ciently promising a large vessel will be used in the subsequent investiga- tions. At first, Tiowever, it is deemed hardly prudent to make use of a ves- sel of greaJter displacement than one of the small guniboats. of population as development.

VL,,]1 J the last decade has been as great as ;n the presumably more progressive and fast-growing North. Statisticians were at first sotnewha* puzzled at this discovery, in view of the known facts that the usual rate of gain is much greater in cities than in the country and that the South's urban population, while only aibout osne-tMrd that of the North has not grown with the rapidity that has characterized the advance of the latter. Those who undertake to adjust this leming contradiction attribute the South's favorable showing largely to the advancement of numerous towns and small cities to a relatively higher class and to the exceptionally great increase in the rural population. It is the pratetiee of 'the census bureau in its compilations to divide the pop- ulation of the North, South and West into gsromps, classified aiccording to the number of inhabitants in. the cities or towns of eadb group. Naturally, with the changes from one census to the next there is a shifting, the groups losing or (gaining with the relative in the different class of cities. And Riant Hammer «woes to Scrap Heap The mammoth 125-ton stroke steam (hammer built by the Bethlehem Iron Company in 1891 for its armor-plate department in South Bethlehem, Perm, is being dismantled.The hammer, the largest ever constructer in the world, had not been in use for many years (because of its turning everything topsy-turvy at the steel works. It is now being converted into scrap iron. A fac smile of the hammer was exhib- ited in the Manufacturers' Building at the World's Fair at Chicago in 1893, and caused amazement to thousands of interested mechanics. The ham- mer, which stood a good four stories in heigh it, cost a fortune, the interest on which was never realized, it is said from its use, owing to its jarring ef- fects which destroyed the level and solidity of all other machines at the company's works. The engineers who built the foundation devised every mechanical means for creating a solid foundation on which to erect the large machinery, but all efforts failed. Af- ter it has been in operation a short time and was used in forging the navy guns and armor plate, the foundations sank, although to secure the same heavy logs more than forty feet in length had been sunk standing on ends to relieve, with the other touilding material, the jarring effects. lnimpea<'liahle volume of unimpeachatble testimony :n favor of Hood's <SarsapariHa. you would upbraid yourself for so long de- laying to take tthis effective alterative and tonic medicine for that blood disease from which you are suffering-.

Take Hood's. the percentage of gains in the groups in which the changes are most large- ly due to the advancement in classi- fication of so many of the compara- tively small cities and towns of the South is found to be surprisingly large. Scarcely less a factor, however, as has been intimated, has been the ex- ceptionally Tapid growth of the rural population. The fertile soil and the diversified natural resources of a sec- tion whose possibilities were for a long time seemingly forgotten or dis- regarded are comang to be realized, and an almost magical change is in progress. All this must be very pleasing to the progressive people of the South So fair a domain should advance with rapid strides in development, and the wonderfu'l showing of recent years affords strong assurance that there is to be no lagging behind hereafter. And their brethren of the North and West will rejoice with little less fer- vor than do they themselves that such Horse and Jluel Meat for Food The assistant state food commis- sioner of Illionis has just made the startling announcement that the flesh of horses, mules and donkeys Is sold in large quantities in Chicago as \beef.\ Apart from the influence of the imagination on the palate, it can be conceived that a healthy, well fed young horse or a mule iwhich is not the veteran of 'too many wars could be converted into.an. article of food as cleanly and wholesome as that ob- tained from the 'barnyard hog. The idea of exposing for sale horse roasts or donkey steaks is not in it- self particularly startling, but this food officer asserts that the equine slaughter houses work up into food old and infirm and even diseased animals. \Ring-boned spavined and sore foot- demand from the Germans the build- ing of a railroad straight from the Zamzibar coast to Tanganqika.

The Arkansas river flows through eastern Colorado and the western half of Kansas, in a ilightly southeasterly course. The region traversed needs but one thing to make it a garden spot—that one thing being water. It is part of tihe dry region on the high plains. So Colorado people have gone to using the waters of the Arfc&nsas river for irrigation. (Now Kansas has brought suit, on the ground that Colorado Is using too much water. Kansas has arid lands of her own which are cap- able of irrigation from the Arkansas. The court is not asked to stop the ir- rigation works already erected in Col- orado, but to prohibit that state from granting any further privileges of the kind, to the end that Kansas may not be deprived of all the water during the dry season. '. The Supreme court has original jur- isdiction in all cases to which a state is a party, and therefore Kansas brought suit directly before that trib- unal. The question at issue is a new one as between states, though the iprinciple of the- contention has been settled long ago in the cases of indi- vidual water rights along streams.

There is nothing in the office of Governor of South Carolina to encourage the manners of the prize ring and we hope the .(better sentiment of the country (will acquit the people of this State of any sympathy with the brutal exhibition made by the senior Senator from South. Carolina and his colleague on Saturday. The State cannot escape responsibility, of course, for the miserable affair, but it can at least expuess sincere regret that it should have been so disgraced by its representatives and hope that the rest of the world win pity if it cannot forgive. The conduct of Senator MaLaurin was uttterly without excuse. His 'language in the Senate was an insult to that body and disgraceful to him- self. He must have known that it would make a 'sensation' at least, if it did not result in a resort ito violence and common respect for himself, for his State asnd for the Senate should have influenced him not to give oc- casion of offense. It would foe better for -the State and for public decency if the country could be spared the hum- iliation of being represented uf men who cannot control themselves. \No punishment that the Senate could inflict upon the South Carolina Senators would be too severs for thoir outrageous conduct.\ fact.

It would seem that the same principle would apply to a similar controversy between states regarding the waiters of a river. The importance of this suit lies in its bearing upon the problem of irri- gation. There is a powerful effort making to have Congress legislate with reference to the irrigation of arid America. The aid of the United States is invoked because the problem is too vast anid too costly for individ- ual enterprise or for the states. Now a new element is to be considered— the right of each state to the use of the water of a river. In New Mexico md Arizona, irrigation works on the ipper waters of the Rio Grande and the Gila take practically all the wa- ter during the dry season. Can the people of one-half a state or territory thus use up the •waters of a stream to the injury of the citizens lower down? The decision of the Supreme court is expected to throw light on these ques- tions; and it is very certain that Con- gress will not take up the irrigation problem until they are solved. The application for seats along the route oi the coronation procession has begun earnest. The prices offered range as high as 25 guineas for a single seat and 500 guineas for a win- dow to accommodate 20 people.
