A Santa Rosa correspondent Of the Peta-

"The late decision Of the Supreme Court
must father most of the unremitting ice.
cold cousin" that has been done here and
the State over for fortnight past.
Here is an actual scene in front of the
bank. Present, Assessor and citizens.
Assessor-"Mr. Jones Fam assessing
the property of the township now; I'll take
list of your property please.
Mr.. Jones-"Yes, I'll step into the bank
moment, then I'll see you" Zones step
ped into the bank, deposited the $4,000
which he had in his pocket, taking an or
der for it. Meanwhile, the Assessor had
assessed Mr.. Smith, whose entire property
was real estate.]
Mr.. Jones stepping out]-"Now, Mr.
Assessor, | am at your service" He gave
true list of his property; other than the
SIS 900 in the bank, which of course, is
legally exempt. Farmer Smith stood by
and knowing Jones was worth $500, he
swore he'd be CONDEMNED if he could see
Why Jones should be assessed bat $1,000
and he likewise swore that he could moi
see where Jones had actually lost the So
600 that he had FIVE minutes before
The working Of the new law CRATES on
the farmers feelings like gate on rusty
hinges Now. don't know how it is with
you, but the air all around Santa Rosa is
full OF imprecatious made by many Mr.
