OF the whole system, resulting from the
occupation of rooms with arstnical wall
papers and on the removal of those pap, rs
the symptoms gradually subsidized, thus
proving that they were the result Of irri
tation, aud not of organic disease. But it
would seem not improbable that prolong.
ca exposure to the same poisonous in
fluence may in time produce those diseases
which are at first only simulated.
"Having witnessed the effects Of slow.
poisoning by arsenical papers in my own
family and household during a number Of
years, and having suffered severely my
self from the same cause, speak from
personal experience. During period of
twelve years we were rarely free from i'll.
ness in some form or other. No fewer
than twelve physicians, several of cmi-
ncnce, were consulted in London and
elsewhere. They all agreed as to the
diseased conditions which existed, but
not one succeeded in atloldirg more than
a measure Of temporary rclict. Children
and adults of both sexes, including several
servants, and numbering altogether four
teen persons, all suffrr,d. The pecu lar
nature and obs macy Of the SYMPTOMS were
such that could not but think sometimes
that some hidden cause was at work !;
which analysis Of the papers of rooms
occupied during thu S; twelve years has
since proved to be indisputably the case.
The idea that arsenic papers were the
cause Of illness was suggested by the
perusal Of a little book not long since pub.
lished, entitled, The Green of the
PERIOD which gives much valuable in
formation on the subject, and was put in
to my hands by physician who was at

REALLY the case lies in the fact, that on re-
moving all the papers containing gr en-
tne symptoms were soon greatly relieved"

EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT.


The question having been raised as to
whether the law authorizes the State Au-
ditor, upon the approval of the Governor,
to extend the time for the payment of
taxes. after a careful examination of all
the acts bearing upon the subject, and be-
ing unable to find any authority for such
action, but at the same time knowing that
extensions, have been granted in previous
wears, I submitted the matter to the At
torney- General for legal opinion.
In reply to the question alluded to, the
Attorney General answers: II have the
honor to say that the only section under
which it is claimed, 40 far as am aware,
that the State Auditor, with the approval
of the Governor, may extend the time for
the collection of taxes, is the l47th Sec
ton of the tax act. That section is in
these words: IF any of the duties required
to be performed in this act on or before a
certain day by any officer herein named
cannot, for want of proper tlme, be so per-
formed, the State Auditor, with the ap-
proval of the Governor, upon proper evil
dence of the necessity of the same, may ex-
tend the time as long as may be necessary
therefor
An examination of this section will, 1
think, lead to the conclusion that it has
reference simply and only to an extention
of time necessary for the tax officers to
perform their duties, and was not intend
ed to, and does not in terms, authorize an
extention of time for the payment of tax
es. am aware that different construct
ion has been acted upon for the past three
years, but now that the question is pre-
sented to me for the first time for my opin-
ion, am obliged to say that 1 do not
think this section gives authority to you,
upon the approval of the Governor, to ex-
tend the time for any other purpose than
to allow the tax officers to complete their
prescribed duties"
The law as construed by the Attorney
General, in whose opinion fully concur,
does not allow the exercise Of discretion
ary power to any officer in this matter.
| would therefore once more bring to the
notice of all the Importance ofprompt and
punctual payment of taxes, as under the
decision above quoted L cannot do other
wise than execute the law, as provided for
in the 9th section of the Tax Act, passed
September 10, 1868, which says that the
penalty shall attach upon all taxes and as
sessments not paid on or before the 10Th
day of January. EDWIN F. GARY,
State Auditor.
