The lawyer was bound to her secrecy

DECENTRALIZATION.


CHICAGO, July 14.-In your local Of to-day
you state that the County Clerk desires all tax
PAYERS to come to his office at CIarc's Hall at
ouce, and examine their assessment for the
year. Your reporter has evidently misunder-
stood me. / did ask him to call the attention
OF every taxpayer to the necessity Of looking
over their assessment for this year, but did
not say they should do so ut once, inas.nnch as
the books will not no ready for examination be-
fore the latter part Of this mouth, when due
notice will be given.
1 stated to your reporter that the daily press
should make it special business to demonstrate
matter, as tt was their own personal business,
which, it attended to in proper time, would
save them time, money! and in some instances
heap Of trouble. It Is too late to make OBJ
iections to an assessment when the
tax-yatlerer comes around unless, the
taxpayer, or rather tax-ower, is determined
to fight his tax in the courts under
any circumstances, besides there being
then no other authority to grant relief
for all the different taxes. As an
objection to attending to this business himself,
the taxpayer may argue that be is helping to
pay public oifirers to perform public duties
justly and carefully. This may be true, but
public officers are not more perfect than any
body else, and just as liable to make mistakes.
Besides, unler the present system OF electing
the three different Assessors for the city every
year, inequalities and errors are simply unasoid-
able. II every taxpayer will spare few hours
every year to look over the assessment, all such
inequalities can then and there be Fernetlied-

New YoRK, July 1.-THE Suns Washington
special says: AS the political gathering ut
White Sulphur Springs approaches, Fosters
friends predict his election as Speaker with more
assurance. For the present, Garteld's candi-
daturc is less spoken Of, although hc
has done what he can to push
himself forward by Informally
expressing himself US in favor OF the Texas ra-
cific grant. Foster, who refused to give the
road hearing, is now leaning in the same li-
rcction. Foster has been engaged IN a cor
rr,ponlrnce with one or two OF the Missouri
MEMBERS which is likely to result in an addi-
tional vote or two, and the attitude of
the prominent agents OF Tom Scott and
the Texas Pacific when In town recent
IL leads to the conclusion that those
interests hive secured the assurance OF q favor
able organization Of the House. Ali that can
be said at present is that the intrigue fur the
election of 4 Republican Speaker upon the plat

went out OF sight six weeks AFRO, comes to the
surface now with an assumption Of success.

ST. LOUIS, July H.-Therc is lively prospect
that Col John 4. Joyce, the only remaining vic
tim Of the Whisky Ring now imprisoned, will be
released on Monday. To-day he applied for q
writ Of habcas-corpus upon the ground that the
sentence Of the Court whereby he Wis condemn
ed on different counts to q term Of three years
and half, was cumulative, anti there
fore Irregular and unlawful, and that
for this reason, and the operation
Of the law granting Communication Of live davs
in each month in case Of wellconductel per-
sous, he is entitled to his freedom froln to-day.
Jovce, divcsted o! his convict's clothes, WAS
brought before Judge krekel in the United
State Courtroom at jefferson City this morn
ins, and lengthy argument was made In bis
behalf by exGoy. Fletcher. his counsel. Judge
krekcl took the matter under consideration,
and will give decision Monday morning. IN
the meantime Joyce is kept in Que of the
ROOMS OF hotel at the State Capital,
closely guarded by Deputy Marshals. His
wife arrived there from Washington tonight.
Lawyers are OF the opinion that Judge krekel
will sustain the writ and restore Joyce tn free

against him, the evidence being AZ fully concfu-
siye of his guilt as was that in the case On which
