manting on the intsrregnum from April Z

Register says:
There Is no necessity to dwell upon the

began in the Northwest. Il began In .
personal sense under General Putnam on
April Z. extending over his men, but not
beyond them. 1t was government OF con-
sent and OF contract with the Ohio COM
pany. and was not specifically provided for
BY any legislation OF congress. Ii was to
last only until St. Clair came. On his COM
ing it disappeared. 1t was not repealed.

His neighbors astonished and shocked
at his manners, applauded, and thought
70 themselves that the gentleman Was

At the end Of the first act the stranger
rose, as If ne had taken a sudden resoiu-
ton, strodc over the big drum. the Gym

THE ASSESSMENT ROLL.
A Large Increase In Laramie
County Valuations.
More Land Returned This Year
Than Ever Before.
The Original Roll FOots Up
8.526, 424.I2.

The Laramie county assessment roll for
1888 is now in the hands Of the board of
equalization, and the valuations are being
tilted as the judgment of that body and
comparison with former returns suggests.
1t is hoped that this announcement will
not cause an invasion of the court house
by taxpayers, as the equalizers will not
meet as a grievance committee for several
weeks.
By advice of the county attorney Asses
sor Fisher listed all property in Converse
and Laramie counties. In the Office work
he is ably assisted by Ed. f. Stable, while
the city wa covered by Deputy Assessor
w. j. Wilkes. The county board and
the officials have proceeded as heretofore
and the result of their course is awaited
| with interest by all.
The cold figures are very comforting to
all interested in the welfare of the county.
The grand total is s.. 526, 424. II, which
sum is fully 81, 900, 900 in excess of last
years roll. This amount does not in
clude the Union Pacific railway, the Wyo.
ming Central railway or the Western
Union telegraph lines.
If the board of equalization repeats its
action of last year, and everything indi.
Gates that it will, the revised assessed val.
uatIon will foot about $l1, 900, 600. In
the face OF various events the increase is
very gratifying indeed.
There is a vast increase in the nssessa.
! BILE land this year over last This is on
account Of the large number Of patents
| which have been issued in the past twelve
months. Receipt of these evidences Of
final proof has been noted in THE LEADER
from time to time. A very low estimate
| by competent persons places the increase
of taxable land in the county at 80, O0O
acres.
Much of the volumes of data collected
by the assessor and his deputies is quite
interesting. One concern in this county
returns $3l5, 600 less this year than last.
This great reduction is offset by increased
valuations in other quarters.
The Bay State Live Stock and Land
company is the largest land owner in the
county and probably one of the largest in
the West, having title to 200. 900 acres.
Ex-Governor Warren and the Wyoming
Development company are good seconds.
The assessor has been greatly hampered
in his work by the failure of property
owners to make prompt returns, but the
| roll is now in good shape.

Carey lost a certificate of deposit for 5000,
refused to comply with the banks rule
applicable to such cases and brought suit
for the recovery -ofthe money.
Counsel for defense held that according
to law his client must be protected against
the possibility of the certificate of deposit
being presented by a second bona fde
holder. Carey's counsel responded that
in the nature of things a bona fde holder
other than the loser could not possess the
document, A great deal seemed to hinge
on whether or not the plaintiff endorsed
the certificate before losing it.
The matter was taken under advise.
