THREE "E's'' WANTED IN DAKOTA.
There is a large class of Bourbonizsd Re-
pubIicans who assume, in their unpardon-
able ignorance and prejudice, that in addi-
zion to all the morality there is in the world
that the Republican party have monopo-

the Bureau. says: Although acting under
many embarrassments-not the least OF

vide for reasonable compensation for their

A Land Agent Is Made the Victim of
Rather Rough Joke.

Mr.. o. N. Hollingsworth, the well.
known land man, was very indig-
nant citizen when he opened the door
that led to his Office, just beneath the
Avenue Hotel, yesterday morning.
Inside was a pony, saddled and bril-
died, whose presence there was mys-
terry. The room that had been left
looking so neat and clean the evening
before, presented an appearance that
filed the heart of its proprietor with
intense disgust. The furniture was all
tumbled up, the cane carpet chewed to
pieces in several places, papers Uttered
the floor, and the entire office looked
like wreck. 1t took darkey good
while to remove all ve5tiges of the
equine occupant. How did he get
there? The only key to the apart
ment is carried by the gentleman him
self, who surely did not turn the
horse in. 1t must have been done by
some parties bent on practical joke
There were two persons who could
see little humor in it-one was Mr..
HolhngswOl tn, the other the owner
of the pony, who reported at the po-
lice station that some thief had made
way with his steed. To neither of
these gentlemeG did the transaction
appear IN the least funny, and the
former will make it hot for the
man that did it provided
he is caught up with.
Mr.. Hollingsworth denounces the per-
petrator as cowardly knave and ruff
liam and it is to be hoped that retribu-
ton will yet overtake him.
Z. = There are several members
of the,Legislature boarding with Capt.
Dave wilson, the genial proprietor of
the Avenue Hotel, but as a matter of
justice it is hereby stated that no
attaches to any of them a.
being in the least concerned in the
outrage.

Gathered In the Hobbies and Around the
Capitol.
During The morning session, Hon
Harry Haynes had passed around I'd
the members a handsome cake, to
commemorate the honorable gentle
mans birthday.
The house was in committee of the
whole, considering the appropriation
bill yesterday evening, and got as far
along with their work as the appro-
pr1ation of $4,000 for state troops,
when they struck the breakers.
Last night Mr. Randolph In the Senate,
and Mr.. Armistead, In the House, were
speaking at the same time, and the
walls reYerberated with their stento-
rian racket.
Senator Terrell, In speaking on
Shannon's bill relative to the present
strike, said that unless an end came
speedily, the people would be suffer
ing for the neceSsaries of life.
When the General Appropriation
Bill was under consideration by the
House yesterday, MIR. Pendleton, of
Bell, for a joke moved that all the
clerks in the state offices be made
heads OF dsrar ments, and have the
same salaries. Mr.. Stephens moved
that the House laugh, which it did
almost to man in regular good
natured outlaws, and Mr.. Cravens,

Whole, honored the joke by declaring

TRAYLOR'S TAX BILL

An Important Measure Which Passed
the Senate-Its Provisions
Senator Traylor's bill emit led Gan
act to regulate the collection of taxes
and to provide for prompt settlement
by Collectors" which passed the SEN
ate yesterday, requires taxes to be col
iecLed from October LIST TO January LIST.
and Collectors to enforce the collection
after January 1St. 1t also requires
County Commissioners Courts to pass
on insolYents, delinquents and other
credits due the Collector CT the first
Monday in April following, and the
| Collector to settle by May 1.
The advantages claimed for the bill
| are that it systemlzss the settlement
| by tax payers and Collectors by
requiring uniformity in the time for
coliecting-in the action Of the Com
missioIer's Court and the prompt set
element by May l, of collectors, thus
| requiring the payment of taxes at a
time when people are most able to
| pay and collecting much tax that is
now lost by reason of persons remoy-
ing out of the counties between jan
uary and March l, the latter period
being the date at which under the
law collectors are now required to en-
force the collection on property. In
addition to the reasons above named
it will enable teachers of the public
free schools to be paid for their SER
vices promptly instead OF as they are
now doing, selling their claims at a
discount. Under the law as
it now stands there is no
time prescribed for Commissioners
Courts to pass upon the credits allow
ed the collector and hence the Comp
troller can not Determine even BY
July, when collectors are required to
settle whether collectors are behind
or not, as it is the case that not one
third of tie collectors now file their
insolvent and delinquent lists by July
l, the date they are now required to
settle. In TACT, The Comptrollers
books show that the collectors of two
of the largest counties in the State
have not yet returned to the Comp
troller these credits for 1884. Senator
Traylor thinks the change will be best
for all classes of tax payers, as well as
increase largely the amount of taxes
collected and the prompt payment
