THE OBJECT AND PROVISIONS.

Their object was to define with precision
the exact duties of the assessors, collectors
and Levy Court Commissioners, and to say
| what act should be q full performance of
their duties. They were passed because
necessity demanded them and justice to the
citizens demanded them. They were passed
| to prevent the citizens OF the state from
evading the payment of their taxes because
| Il had become notorious that the Republican
politicians would pay the taxes of their
| negroes and other delinquent taxables for
| the year of the election, when they were
wanted to vote, but not for the "off year"
/ So that two of the prominent reasons which
| necessitated and justified the passage OF
/ these acts were to save officers embarrassment
and injustice, and to secure collection OF
State and county revenues.
It never has been and cannot be success
fully maintained that these acts are not wise
and that their provisions and entire scope are
not as lust, fair and reasonable as would be
possible to be formed to attain the ends men
toned BY an examination of the law for
the assessment of taxes 1t will be seen that
1t provides for fair assessment of all per-
sons who have right to be assessed. 1t will
be seen that fixed and ample time Is pro
vided for the sittings of the assessors, and
that the officers are to give wide notice OF tht
time and place. Further, 1t fixes sever

Prospects of the Tariff Commission Bill

Proepects of the Tariff Commission Bill
d, GeOrgln's Senators Sick.
WASHINGTON April S0.-This week will
probably sec the end Of the debate ON the
Tariff Commission bill In the House. 1t is
generally conceded that it will pass. Some
of the Northwestern Republicans do not
like the bill and have talked of voting
against 1t on the ground that the Committee
on Ways and Means should prepare bill to
correct the principal incongruities in the
present tariff and have IL. considered in the
House. 1t is thought most If not all of
Them however, will finally vote for
this bill, for should such measure
be perfected and brought in by the eom-
mittee 1t Is feared that the Democrats
would make fight to amend it in such way
as to break down the tariff, which now affords
protection. The Republican majority of
two amounts TO nothing practically, and
they are powerless to. do anything against
the will of the minority. Tie bill Will,
however, receive considerable strength from
the Democratic side. The Democrats from
Pcnnsylva- ia, West Virginia and Louisiana
1t is understood, will vote for the measure,
as will also, it is said, Tillman of South
Carolina, and probably Epson Of Texas.
The bill, when passed, however, is about rs
| far as ever from a law, as 1t is doubtful,
Judging from the tenor of the Senate debate,
whetherit will pass that body, owing to the
entire divergence of opinion in the two
| branches of Congress on one point alone.
The Tariff Commission is therefore long
way removed from being law yet. The
chief speeches this week will probably be
made by Morrison and Randall.
BOTH GEORGIA SENATORS ILL.

growing worse, and information from Eureka
Springs, where he has sought final relief, is

How TO Cook THE CHRISTMAS TuRKEY.-A
lady who is repated to always have good
roast turkey wrote out the following:
"Unless it is badly soiled, never soak,
wash. or wet a turkey. as many do. Indeed
washing injuries any kind of meats and fish,
except those kept in salt brine. Carefully
draw the turkey, and wipe thoroughly in
side and out with i dry towel. 1t will thus
keep longer uncooked, and be better fiayor-
ed. If it chances to be.a tough one, steam
il an hour or two. a. needed. before baking.
If one has not a steamer large enough, as
few have, it may be done in a wash boiler,
supporting the bird above the water on a
couple of inverted basins. or suspending 1t
by strings from the handles. My family
has learned to like plain stufing rather
than the highly seasoned, rich, indigestible
dressing 50 much in vogue. | use stale
bread, chopped fine, just moistened with
scalding water, not to a 'mush,' and d a
little butter, salt, pepper, and, If desired, a
small pinch of sweet marjoram OF thyme;
most like sum- er savory. After stufhng
! and sewing. fla. ten the wings and legs down
closely with skewers or by tying with
strings. Roast in the dripping pan without
water. TO keep The skin from scorehins
basle now and 1hen with q little water sea
soaed with butter and salt. Bake through
uniformly to a Light brown. avoiding burn
ing OF hardening any part A good oyster
stufing, when easily obtainable, Is liked by
many As follows: Drain off most OF the
lquur from the oysters, season with sufi-
cient butter and pepper and roll them IN
cracker and bread crumbs. Fill the cavity
of the turkey entirely with these."
