The MontrosesEnquirer of last week had a
bad case of deiirium tremens over the new
county Of Eaton bill, and makes several
statements that are absolutely untrue. Now,
neither the Grand Junction Town company
nor the Delta Town company had anything
to do with originating the bill, nor did they
know anything of II until the bill was intro
duccd into the House by Representative
Bucklin. The bill originated with Enos T.
Hotchkiss and others of the North Fork and
the Muddy countries. and to them the credit
is due. There is no job in the bill, as the
Enquirer insinuates, but it only gives to

the strong opposition developed against the
bill Il may fail in the Senate, but that does
not detract anything from the Justice Of the

The Reduction in the County Revenues.

The county auditor, Mr.. J. G. Adams, in an
interview with Journal reporter, stated that
the effect of the bill passed by the Legislature,
Wednesday, limiting the tax levy to 33 cents on
800 for Marion county, would be to the
county in debt 'As the levy now stands it is
about right" said Mr. Adams; 'the
expense for Center township alone is a
large item. The coal bill for the
year of the county building is 1920 and
the grocery bills for the poor are equally large
The bill of one grocer alone for the current
year, was over $500. The present bill will have
this effect that property will be appraised
higher, probably IS per cent. more, and Marion
county will have to bear the most of the State
expenses, The result of such bill can be read
lily seen in this county" Mr. Adams stated that
in his opinion, if there should be any changes in
the law, it should give more option to the coun-
ty commissioners, whom the people could change
by election Property should be appraised at
what it would sell in ordinary times

ADJUSTMENTS.

FANTASIA AT THE GRAND oPERA-HoUsE.
"Fantasma," the much talkedabout spectacu
lar pantomme of the Hanlon Brothers, was pre-
sented to packed house at the Grand Opera
house last night "Fantasma" has, in circus par
lance, every thing as represented on the large
banners outside" The spectacle embodies all
that is novel in the realm of stage mechanism
and the effects are simply wonderful
The scenery is also picturesque and
the changes are marvellous Among
the tricks introduced are boots that
walk away and up the wall, and demon who
climbs up the walls and down without visible
support. There are many new changes and
I, combinations in scenery and mechanism that
enumeration would be Impossible. The trans
formations and tableaux introduced at the ends
of each act are wen. grouped and gorgeous
pictures. Altogether, Fantasman is the best
spectacle seen here in years, and the features
are bewilderingly novel. The pantomine is an
attraction for ladies and children to see
| The story of "Fantasma' is one of folk lore
and deals with mortals, fairies and hobgoblins
and the introduction of dialogue makes the argu-
ment perfectly plain. The cast is extremely
large, and the pantomimists extremely capable
The ''Pico" of Monsieur Louis Pizzarello was
extremely funny, and the spccalties of Miss
Davis, who enacts the role of ''Fantasma" ex-
ceedingly clever. Her songs and limitations
were repeatedly encored Miss Davis has good
voice and rare mimetic abilities. The principal
artists were Mr. Nat ID. Jones, Signori Angelina
Pastorini, March,, CaJtanio, Mare, Miss knight,
Miss Mouton and Mr.. j. II. Smiley. Fan
