TWO VDeWS 0§- STATE ASSESSOR WOO&’S

regulates and fixes th e prices of all ’

those sold of home” -—a stateodent aS mar­-

velous for stupidity as for had grammar.

Apparently, the home supply Snd demaUd

of 60,000,000 ofpeople has nothing what­-

ever to do with the price of agricultural

products or 7,670,500 of them.

There is nothing like a convenient ignor­-in g of actual conditions to help out a free

trade argument. The Evening Post knows

very Well, for it has often lectured countrystatesmen onthe fact, that tho tendency of

State Assessors is to undervalue farm pro­-perty, as compared with municipal or vil­-lage property. Thus this State’s assessed

valuation ,of real estate last year was $8,-

122,688,084, of which $1,628,017,272, or

more than half, was in New York and

King’s counties, The total real and per­-sonal estate assessed by the assessors last

year, was $8,469,199,149, while, by the

censuB o f 1880, when there was no4nduce-

ment to conceal real value, it was $7,619,-

000,000, ok more than twice as great.Such figures ought to convince even the

Post tbat local assessment figures cannot

be depended on. It would be ju s t as easyand just as well founded to say that the

comparative decrease of farm values meant

increased prosperity, because i t w as made

impossible by the increased development of

nearby towns and cities, on which a great­-er share of the taxes could be assessed-.

STATEMENT.

From (he New York Times, independentHep,

’ If the gloomy forebodings of S tate As­-

sessor Wood are well founded the farmers

of this State have rather a dismal prospect

before them. It is just possible tb at his

representation of the decreasing value of

farm lands and the increasing value of

property in cities may have some connecr

tion with justifying the policy that has

become so famiyar in the process of“ equal­-

ization” of raising the assessed) valuation

for cities and lowering it fpr rural counties.

But there is no doubt some truth in his

statement that farm lands are depreciating

in value. I t is a well known fact that this

is the case in some sections of th is State

and throughout various parts of New En;

gland. T he class of well to do farmers,

especially iu the hill country and places

remote from manufacturing and trading

centers, is growing smaller and being re­-

placed by a less prosperous class. The

young men are ap t to leave the ancestral

acres to seek some more profitable way of

life and the growing cities and towns seem

to be drawing away the vitality of the

rural districts,

And readers of the Press know that the

Post’s statement tbat the tariff increases

very largely the cost of nearly every kind

of manufactured goods that farmers pur­-chase is untrue. Anybody can prove it so

by comparing tbe actual retail prices of

such articles here with the actual retail

prices iu England. Home prod$$tion has

cheapened nearly everything that the

farmer buys, so that it is as cheap here as

in England, and tw o or three times cheap­-

er than under a revenue tariff.

Has received thia week.another in

voice of those fThe common explanation that the east­-

ern farmers cannot compete with those of

the west evenin the markets that are near

their own doorSTras much of truth in it.

Their little field of grain, worked with

ox teams and hand implements, have not

much chance in competing with the wide

prairies where corn and wheat are grown

and garnered by the square mile with the

use of steam machinery. The prices of

these products are fixed by the foreign de­-

mands and the supply that comes from the

great fields of the west. The flour and

meal sold in the towns nearest to the New

York farmer are made a thousand miles

away perhaps, and the prices are such as

would give him little return for his labor.

If he is fortunately situated he may do

well with vegetables, eggs, butter and

milk, and it is more profitable for him to

turn his hand largely to pasturage aud

fodder than to keep up the old variety of

crops. With ready and cheap transporta­-

tion over long distances, agricultural pro­-

ducts of most kinds are cheapened in the

home market and there is no protection

against domestic competition.

Mr s . Rut h e r f o r d B. Ha y e s , wife of

of a stroke of apoplexy which took place

Mrs. Hayes lay in a semi-conscious con­-

dition and was unable to move or speak.

People desiring first class Dentistry will

do well to call upon H.G. Pope,M. D.,Den­-

times to do first class work, using the best

material in the market. The best local

anesthetics known, and nitrous oxide gas

always on hand for the painless ^extraction

ofteeth. All work warranted ©represented,and at bottom prices.'

These elements of the situation are lib-

evitable, and there is little relief in the

fact that local markets iu the cities and

towns are all the time growing. They

lake their supplies where they can be ob­-

tained most cheaply, and their flour and

meal, their corn and oats, and even their

beef and pork are more likely to come

from Minnesota an d Kansas than from the

neighboring farms. But there are two sides

to tbe farmers account. To a certain ex­-

tent he can by h is own labor raise suppliesfor himBelf upon his own land, but there

are many things that he must buy, chieflyin the form of implements, of clothing and

of groceries, and j t is the necessity of buy­-

ing these that makes it important for him

to raise a surplus of produce to sell. This

it is that makes the price at which he is

forced to sell a matter of" so much conse­-

quence. If he cannot make both ends

meet with comfort from year to year it is

because what he has to buy costs so much

in proportion to what he gets tor what, he

has to sell. T his should teach him that

the price of what he buys is just as impor­-

tant to him as the price of what he sells.

It seems as though he would only need

to put this and that together to see where

bis interest lies in the m atter of taxation.

He feels the pressure of local and State

taxes, and finds it hard fo m eet the de­-mands of the collector, who has a bill

with the figures plainly set down. He

clamors for a redaction of Slate taxes,

economizes in local expenditures, and

looks with equanimity upon any action

that will transfer the State burden from

rural communities to the cities, which

be regards more as centers of wealth than

as the centers of poverty. But there are

collectors whom he never sees and whose

bills are to him an unknown mystery, but

whose demands reach him much more

heavily than those of the collector whom

he knows, and are even harder to escape.

He pays his taxes through the storekeeper

every time he buys apieceof ironmongery,

a piece of doth or calico, a suit of clothes,

or a pound of sugar. T h e addition to the

cost of wbat be buys does not go to the

Government in any great measure, but to

swell the profits of manufacturers and

traders, wbo thrive so largely at his ex

pense because protected from a competitionwhich he cannot escape.

(From the uov’s Memorandum In tbe Month ot

June in Vetoing ths Appropriation.)Pr e s i de n t Ha r r i s o n bas decided that

the civil service rules which prohibits

reinstatement without a regular examina­-

tion, of parties who have been out of the

classified service of the Government for

more than a year shall not apply to veter­-

ans of the Uniod army. This will enable

about 1,000 veterant discharged during the

first three years of Cleveland’s administra­-

tion to get their places back.

My views upon appropriations forth e

Capitol were quite fully expressed iu two

certain memoranda filed by me on June

9th, 1888, upon approving the assembly

ceiling appropriation bill and the bill for

continuing work on the State library.

It will be remembered that I then pro­-

tested against both of these measures upon

the distinct grounds that I waa opposed fo

further commissions composed of inex­-

perienced men, not architects or builders,

and that the capitol work should be solelyentrusted to the regular capitol commis­-

sioner, to w it: Isaac G. Perry, an able,

responsible and competent architect and

builder, and a thoroughly honest man. I

insisted that last year’s bills were unwise,and th at the course pursued by the legisla­-ture was unbusinesslike—and that it fur ­

nished a pernicious precedent, and would

prove unsatisfactory to the S tate in its

results. 1 formally signed the measures,as

I then slated, because of the pressing emer­-gencies which were then presented and not

because they really met my approval.It is believed that the people are opposed

to a repetition of legislation of this charac­-ter. Another year has passed, and now

another unsatisfactory measure is present­-ed—a mere temporary expedient—and I

am asked to approve it because it is againclaimed that another emergency is present­-ed, and that a great necessity exists for

the continuance of the work projected.Another commission is proposed, which

Is to have supervision of the work, consist­-

ing of one manufacturer and tw o lawyersand politicians, and Commissioner Perryis to be associated with them. I must ad­-here to my convictions expressed last yepr,

and cannot again yield them because of

the asserted emergency presented. I should

have been glad to have approved that por­-tion of the bill relating to desirable im­-provements and repairs to th e finished

portion of the Capitol, bnt I am advised

by the Attorney-General that the bill has

been ao framed by the legislature as to

compel me to approve the whole appropri­-ation or none of it.

Successor to A. O, w hi t te m ore

H avana, N. Y., May »oth, 1889 . m tTh e President thinks th e criticism he is.

receiving from many Republicans on ac­-

count of his slowness to making appoint­-

ments is very unjust, I n a conversation

with an old personal Jfrihnd he said : “I

am being severely and I .think unjustly,

criticised for not making appointments

faster. I t is in no cato Any fault of mine,

1 am, and bave been, Since the 4th of

March ready and willing to appoint a Re­-

publican to any position: that is or should

be vacant, provided of course, that he has

the indorsement of the Congressional dele­-

gation o f his State. B p t what am i to do

when nearly every State has two or more

candidates for every important office, each

supported by some portion of the Congres­-

sional delegation; when oneRepublicanSenator informs me that unless his friends

are appointed the party in his State will go

straight to the dogs, and an hour after­-

wards another Senator from the same Statu

says-the samething in regard to his friends.

If those who criticise m y tardiness coflld

exchange places with m e I feel certain that

they woiild at odce ‘see the mistake they

are making. I am perfectly willing to be

criticised for my own acts, bu t-1 object

most decidedly to being held responsible

for the lack of harmony among ^Republican

Congrdssmen.” -

Postmaster General has issued an order

which will in all probability be duplicated

by the other cabinet officers, calling for a

War Department and woe to those that do

not tally.

The difference between a comfortable

prosperity and a slowly grinding impover­-ishment for tbe farmer may be made bythe simple fact that he necessarily sells his

products in competition with all the world

and at the lowest prices tbat competition

can produce, while the cost of nearlyeverything that he must buy is enhanced

by a system of direct taxation, tbe greater

part of which is intended to strangle com­petition and increase the profits of favored

interests. When the farmer has worked

iut this simple problem be will find tbat

the relief he most needs is in his own

bands and that the tSXHtkm from which

be suffers most is that which he has been

blindly helping to fasten upon himself.

Appropriations for the capitol must wait

until some deflnite,permanent, comprehensive and business like policy shall be adopt­-ed by the legislature that will meet the ap1

proval of he people of the state.

T h e late President Arthur’s millions of

admirers throughout the country will be

glad to bear that a suitable monument bas

been unveiled at his tomb in Albany.Those in th is city—and they include about

the whole population of i t—will be still

m ote pleased to know that a fund to erect

a statue of the dead Fresident has heen

raised, and that it will be placed in onp of

our public squares. A President who p er­-

formed his duties w ith the utmost credit at

a most critical and delicate period of na­-

tional history, as Arthur did, furnishes an

excellent illustration o f the power of Amer

loan institutions to develop the right man

St th e right time, and that example should

be set before the nation in enduring form,

A OFOUR *

It is a remarkable instance of the Even­-

ing Post’s lack ofcandor tbat in an editor

ial article taking as a text the statement of

Assessor Wood that he finds farming land

declining in value ao seriously in New

York that within a.few years, if things go

pn aa they are now going, we shall have

only tenant farmers in this Htate, aqd

blaming it, of -coarse, on tbe tariff, it

should begin its argument by saying

“about th'ee-fburtbs of onr total exports

consists of agricultural products.” The

uninformed reader, putting this and tha

together, naturally think that the exporta

of New York State are referred to, and

that the low prices received by New York’s

exporting farmers for their products are

responsible for the decline in the price of

farm land. I t is the whole taation, how­-

ever, that classifies 73.23 per cent, of its

exports as agricultural products.The Evening Post, however, does not

worry about a tntllng difference between a

tingle State and a Nation of thirty-eight

States.. For it: insists that“ the price of

our agricultural products in foreign mar-
