WEEKLY GAZETTE. SATURDAY...MARCH 24, 1883 SUBSCRIPTION, per year, $2. The annual town reports in Maine show that a large number of thriving manufacturing and agricultural towns are not only free from debt but have a surplus of funds. At the close of the war every town in the State had a large debt to pay. By adopting the heroic method of paying a portion each year the burden has at length been removed. Compulsory education has been fairly tried in Wisconsin, and it seems to have been reasonably successful. The present system, adopted in 1879, requires the attendance, at public or private schools, for at least twelve weeks in each school year, of all children between the ages of seven and fifteen in the State. The Wisconsin State Journal, reviewing the subject, says that the year following the enactment of the law, the school attendance increased fully 10,000. The Tennessee House of Representatives has passed a bill for the settlement of the State debt, which was adopted by the Democrats in caucus, and which went through without amendment. It proposes to pay 50 cents on the dollar and 3 per cent interest on all but the State debts proper, and the bonds of educational institutions within the State, in regard to which the Legislature proposes to be honest. It is related that several years ago Alexander H. Stephens was very ill, and supposed he was dying. The doctor proposed, if he had no objection, to read a chapter in the Bible and have prayers. Mr. Stephens said quickly: "Do object and most decidedly. I have no objection to prayer, for I believe must but I do object to death bed." THE LEGISLATURE'S WORK.

Stephens was very ill, and supposed he was dying. The doctor proposed, if he had no objection to read a chapter in the Bible and have prayers. Mr. Stephens said quickly: "I do object and most decidedly. I have no objection to prayer, for I believe in it, but I do object to death bed repentance. I have made it the rule of my life to live each day as though it were going to be my last. In the heat of politics I may have sometimes forgotten myself, but I am no better today on my death bed than I have tried to be every day of my life, and I have no special preparations to make and no special pleas to offer." We have heretofore quoted from the London Times paragraphs illustrating the draggled condition so to speak to the English farmer, and we venture another quotation from a recent issue of the paper. It is water everywhere. In the course of a long railway journey the traveler is never out of sight of water. There are pools and even lakes in what he thought high ground, and rivers are running in dry places. Wherever water can lodge, there it is, for it can neither flow away nor sink into a soil too saturated to hold more. But all this plague of waters has to cease, and the land to recover its consistency before the plow, or the flock, or the herd can be put on it. Never was a good spring more wanted, for there are ugly surmises as to the condition of the earlier autumn sowing. An important election contest is going on in Falls county, Texas, the preliminaries being under way before United States Commissioner Knox, at Marlin, where seventeen Chinamen are on trial, charged with illegal voting last fall, and the result was so close that these seventeen Chinese votes controlled it. They were all naturalized in 1874, but the election law amendments of 1875 limited naturalization privileges to white foreigners, which of course excluded Chinamen; but it is also claimed that it also disfranchised Chinamen already given the right of suffrage that have voted undisturbed ever since. If they are declared illegal voters it is understood the election contests for county offices will be reopened. No attempt will be made to seriously punish them if convicted, as they have believed themselves full-fledged citizens, but unfortunately for them, at the last election they held the balance of power.

Approved March 15th. Chap. LXXIX.—Authorizing Boards of THE CROPS Discouraging Reports from Some Counties A Chronicle representative, just in from an extended trip through the northern and central part of the State, gives a hopeful account of the condition of crops. The summer fallow in the counties of Butte, Tehama, Sutter, Yuba, Placer, Sacramento, San Joaquin and Stanislaus at this season never looked finer, and a good rain within two weeks will make more than an average crop. In the north very little rain has fallen, and in the counties composing that part of the State hay is a total failure and the cattle will have to be driven to the mountains. In Colusa and Tehama the outlook is bad. The coast counties—Humboldt, Mendocino, Sonoma, Marin, San Mateo and Monterey—give promise of an average crop. The southern part of the State has had proportionally more rain than the northern and central, but a fair crop there will not compensate for the losses elsewhere. As it is now, not much of a crop will be raised in Kern, Tulare, Ventura, San Diego and Merced, except in places where irrigated. Los Angeles, Santa Barbara and San Bernardino promise fairly, and the counties around the bay of San Francisco will produce an average crop. Around 'Change everything is regarded as dependent upon what weather the next two weeks will bring. A few inches of rain distributed over the whole State, it is believed, would insure a more than average crop, but no rain and north winds would make short crops. An indication of the uneasiness felt is the fact that the Central Pacific has discharged a number of men and reduced the working hours of those remaining from ten to eight. Work has been suspended on a large number of freight cars otherwise needed in prosperous seasons.

It is the great act of the session, a great event in our fiscal history, and a great and auspicious one, we trust, in our industrial history. For the third time in the history of our protective policy the nation has begun to reduce the rate of the tariff. If we start with the manufactures created by the war of 1812, and the consequent exclusion of imports, and count the tariff of 1816 as the beginning, we can easily grasp the ups and downs of our policy by the following table: Tariff of 1816, 4 years, 21 per cent. Tariff of 1820, 4 years, 36 per cent. PACIFIC COAST NEWS. The town of Forest City, Nevada, was nearly wiped out by fire last week. Seventy-six buildings were burned, loss $250,000. Frank Brown, a brakeman, fell from the cars twelve miles north of Los Angeles on last Friday, and both legs were crushed. He died almost immediately. Two young boys, children of J.C.Brady, of Cochise county. A.T., were drowned in the San Pedro river near Charleston bridge, while swimming. In a dispute between John C.Salisbury and Colly McQueen, two farmers, the latter was shot in the leg with a shotgun by the former. The shooting occurred at a ranch near Bellota, twelve miles from Stockton, over live stock. Tucson, A.T., is to be lighted with masts, similar to those in use in Los Angeles, with the large Brush are lights, and the Swan incandescent light will be used for domestic lighting, the storage reservoir system being used. On Tuesday Mrs.Millie F.Walkinshaw, a New York City lady, who has been a guest at the Arlington Hotel, Santa Barbara, over a year, was found dead in her bed. Deceased came here suffering with sciatic necusism and was addicted to the use of morphine to stupefy the pain. L.S.Welton, of San Francisco, suicided at sea on the 8th on the voyage from San Blas to Mazatlan. He was sitting with his leg over the railing of the schooner, and was observed stabbing himself in the neck. He instantly jumped overboard, and as he fell he cried out, "One hundred and thirty Kearney street." His body was secured by a lasso being thrown over his neck, and when caught a huge sea tiger had its teeth in his back.

Tariff of 1820, 4 years, 36 per cent. Tariff of 1824, 4 years, 38 per cent. Tariff of 1828, 4 years, 42 per cent. Compromise tariff, 1832, with sliding scale for 10 years, reducing 2 per cent. a year, 42 to 20 per cent. Tariff of 1842, for 4 years, 33 per cent. Tariff of 1846, for 11 years, 24 per cent. Tariff of 1857, for 4 years, 19 per cent. Morrill tariff of 1861, decreased in 1872, increased in 1875, amounting upon the dutiable imports from 48 (1867) to 43 (1882) per cent. Commission tariff of 1883, probable rate, 33 per cent. It should be added that whereas the value of the articles imported upon the free list fifteen years ago was less than 5 per cent. of the whole, it was 30 per cent. of the whole in 1882, and will probably be fully one-third under the new tariff. Boston, March 29th. — Charles Derby, the leper, died in the Salem Almshouse, in the room which he had occupied since his arrival from San Francisco, three months ago. Derby wasted to a skeleton and his reason almost failed. He was an old Salem storekeeper and merchant of eccentric tastes, with a passion for collecting, and possessed a good education and considerable intellectual attainments. He contracted the disease in Honolulu, where he at one time occupied a high position at the Court and was a favorite with the King, when he left Honolulu, it is said, under fear of banishment, and came to San Francisco, where he engaged in the business of photography until obliged to leave upon the threat of the occupants in the building to expose him as a leper. He came to Salem and has been a source of much solicitude and care. The Salem authorities endeavored to obtain a place for him in the Canadian "lazaretto" at Tracadie, but the Canadian Government refused. A similar attempt to send Derby to a retreat to New York failed. He was given excellent care and constant attendance by the inmates of the Almshouse. New York, March 21. — A London special says: The injuries received by the Queen, Saturday, by slipping upon the stairs of the palace at Windsor, while descending to take a carriage for a ride, may now turn out to be more serious than was at first supposed. It is believed that she will be confined to her room for some time. At the time of the accident Her Majesty and at sea on the 8th on the voyage from San Blas to Mazatlan. He was sitting with his leg over the railing of the schooner, and was observed stabbing himself in the neck. He instantly jumped overboard, and as he fell he cried out. "One hundred and thirty Kearney street." His body was secured by a lasso being thrown over his neck, and when caught a huge sea tiger had its teeth in his back. The Montana Legislature has passed a law making it misdemeanor to carry concealed weapons in the towns and cities of the Territory. This will bear heavily against the bullwhackers and ranchmen of Montana who desire to hide their walking arsenal when they put on store clothes. It will give a picturesqueness to the Montana outfit, and will no doubt have an awful inspiring effect on the "tenderfoot." Last Sunday the wife of Wing Lee, a Chinese merchant of Tucson eloped with a young man known as Billy McQuilken. The woman has lived in Tucson several years and was known as "China Mary." She was more prepossessing than ordinary women of the Mongolian type and spoke English very well. Wing Lee, upon discovering the sickness of his spouse," offered $700 reward for her capture and return." Chief of Police Buttner started in pursuit and caught the fugitive couple at Total Wreck, where McQuilken had gone into the saloon business with the money Mary had taken from Wing Lee. The officer brought both back to Tucson, but the erring wife refused to return to her almond-eyed lord and McQuilken swears he will retain her. He is a sporting character. Shasta, Cal., March 29th. — A half-breed Indian girl, aged about twenty years, came into Shasta this afternoon and gave herself up to Sheriff, informing him that she had killed her husband, Charles Barnes, at Arbuckle, in this county. Upon inquiry her statement was found to be true, she having shot him this morning with a rifle while he was in bed. Later—Mrs. Barnes, the woman who shot and killed her husband at Arbuckle to day, has stated that last evening her husband abused and beat her, and then, loading his gun, said to her that he intended to kill her father after which he went to bed. Upon her husband waking this morning she asked him if he still intended to kill her father,and he rephed,"Yes,"I intend to kill him!"whereupon she picked up the gun and shot him and killed him dead, while he was lying in bed. She says she killed her husband to save her father's life. Mrs. Barnes is now in custody in the county jail at Shasta. Washington, March 19th. — The Postmaster General has under consideration several designs for the new two-cent postage stamp for first-class matter, which will supersede the three-cent stamp after July 1, 1883. A favorite one is similar to the present two-cent stamp used for local postage. NEW YORK, March 21.—A London special says: The injuries received by the Queen, Saturday, by slipping upon the stairs of the palace at Windsor, while descending to take a carriage for a ride, may now turn out to be more serious than was at first supposed. It is believed that she will be confined to her room for some time. At the time of the accident Her Majesty and attendants thought but little of it. The Queen, after returning to her room and making an examination in order to ascertain the extent of her injuries, determined to carry out her original intentions and take a drive. On returning, when attempting to leave the carriage, she found she was unable to do so, and had to be assisted by attendants, who found it necessary to carry her to her room. Her Majesty's physicians were at once summoned, and upon an examination found her knee badly swollen and inflamed. There is much uneasiness throughout the city consequent upon her condition. Crowds stand about the bulletin places, eagerly watching and asking for the news. Great numbers of business men have posted up notices of absence at their places of business and have gone to their clubs, the newspaper buildings and telegraph offices, to await news. UPPER LAKE, March 19th.—James Moore was shot and instantly killed at Lower Lake yesterday by Bob Mathews. There had been an old feud existing between the parties for a year or two, and they met yesterday, when Moore jumped on Mathews and bruised him up about the head and face, when some of the bystanders separated them, and while they were holding Mathews he drew his pistol and used it with the above result. ERIE, Pa., March 19th.—A revolting outrage was perpetrated in the neighboring village of Findley's Lake. The relatives of the late Mrs. Findley discovered that her grave had been tampered with, and ordered the grave to be opened. The coffin was found broken open, and the right leg, over which an action was pending for alleged malpractice against her family doctor, was found torn from its trunk. WASHINGTON, March 19th.—The Postmaster General has under consideration several designs for the new two-cent postage stamp for first-class matter, which will supersede the three-cent stamp after July 1, 1883. A favorite one is similar to the present two-cent stamp used for local postage, although the color is dark brown instead of red. Thus far the difficulty has been to choose whose head shall ornament the new stamp, but it is probable that the vignette will be that of General Grant. It will be fully a month before the design is agreed upon, and it is desirable that the stamp shall not only be of elegant finish, but plain and distinct, and in every way creditable to the Department from which it will be issued. No great diminution in receipts on account of the reduced postage is anticipated by the officials of the Postoffice Department, as they seem impressed with the idea that the sale of the new stamp will nearly make up the threatened deficiency. BRAIDWOOD (Ill.) March 21st.—There are liable to be some disgraceful scenes at the Diamond mine before the bodies of the unfortunate victims are finally laid to rest. The Coroners of Will and Gundy counties are both there, for the purpose of reaping the reward of $11 per corpse for holding an inquest, and each insists that he is the proper person to do the job. There is also said to be serious trouble in the ranks of the Relief Committee. The water is now less than three feet deep and it is hoped to be able to begin removing the bodies on Sunday. A fence is being built to keep the crowd back when the work of removal begins. The mine has been explored some distance and found not caved. John Marshall, one of the escaped miners, died yesterday from the nervous shock and exhaustion. — Receipt books, order books, note books, etc., printed on heavy paper and bound in substantial form, are kept in stock at the Gazette Job Office. — Illustrated advertising cards for sale at the Gazette job office.
