recently stranded at Sheboygan while at
tempting to make that port in storm,

She was the property of ]. Bertschey,
of Sheboygan, and was three-master.
Her hulk is insured in the Orient, West

COUNTY BOARD.

Board met at P. NJ. Friday. Quor-
UNI present. Petition of Bernard Roe
mer in relation to bridges in Manitowoe
Rapids. Mr.. Roemer spoke in explana
ton of the petition. A petition was pre-.
sented by Peter Mulholland, ex sheriff,
which was referred to committe on gen.
| eral claims. The vote by which the
report of committee appointed to confer
with tax commission was indefinitely
postponed on Tuesday, was rescinded,
and the report adopted. A resolution
for the sale of city lots was carried. Re.
port of committe relating to taking tai
deeds on city lots and dispossessine
present occupants was adopted. The
resolution of Mr.. Ostenfeldt on the ''taz
commission" was then taken up.
Fred Swenson moved that the resoIu-
ton be definitely postponed. Mr..
Ostenfeldt deprecated any hasty action
in the matter. As the district attorney
was present he thought it wise to hear
him upon the subject.
Mr.. Walker stated that he had serious
doubts as to what his duties in the mat
tor were. One portion of the county is
opposed to another in this matter and
the county as a whole does not seem to
be party. He sought to look at the
thing impartially. The commission did
nothing wrong Intentionally. In select
ing them the object was to get good men.
Before the appointments were made the
names were placed before the board. At
that time he objected to the appointment
of Mr.. Conkling and called the attention
of the board particularly to his appoint
ment. Then the chairman of the county
board of Fond du Lac was taken so as to
counteract any prediction which Conk-
lin might have. The law is very vague
and conclusions widely differing may be
drawn from it. But he didn't think it
was the intention of the Legislature to
provide that personal property should be
equalized by the commission. In fact
lie had asked the person who drafted the
law and was informed that there was no
intention OF including personal property.
Now a decision of the supreme court
brings it within the power of the COM
mission to review personal property
But the court went outside the case in
giving decision on this point. 1t was
not in the case and hence the court in
future decisions is not bound by its
opinion thus expressed. The question
before the court was the sonstitutionality
of the law.
If the report of the commission is void
let the board cast it aside. But simple
irreguiarity does not make it void. There
is danger ahead no matter what course
the board may decide to persue. If the
report is proper and legal and you set it
aside, there is danger that the taxes lev
led by you will be illegal. If the action
of the commission is void and you pro-
coed under it, there is danger that the
taxes levied will be illegal. A compro-
mise is the wisest thing.
After some further remarks by Messrs
Ostenfeldt and Plat the question was
put and the resolution beaten by the
following:
