The Ottawa free trader. [volume] (Ottawa, Ill.) 1843-1916, 1889-05-25

That the decision of the State Supreme
Court of Missouri that a pack Of playing
cards is not a gambling device within the de-
fnition of the statute, does not seem to war
rant the inference that poker or any other
card game can be played for money with
impunity. Nevertheless, it is a satisfaction
to the residents at the west end of the
bridge to know that it will not be necessary
to memOrize the spots on pack of measly
authors or nations decks in order to
preserve the national game from innocuous
desuetude in that village

That the struggle over Mr.. Aliens chair

The attempt to pass a law compelling
assessors In this State to assess all property
at fair cash Ual,is (Which Is the law now,
though VIGOROUSLY disregarded) ignomini'
ously failed when brought to vote In the
house the other day. One OF the provis-
ions of the proposed bill was clause en-
abling the State board of equalization TO
remedy the evil Of Il low assessment by
raising the aggregate Of the assessment by
20, 25 or u larger per cent--a power the
board does not now have, the law being
that in all equaliziDg by county boards, or
tue State board, 10 material change may
be made in the aggregate. OF course, With
a constitutional Limitation Ia the per cent
age Of tax that may be levied, law
assessment has a tendency 10 keep taxes
down, and this Is the reason why the aggre-
gates are practically growing smaller year
by year, iufictng hlrdships on certain
municipalities requiring for Legitimate eN
penditures creator amount Of money than
they can now raise; but in the vast body
of the State the asses ments, though low,
are probably sufficient, which WAS doubt
less the cause Of the ignOminiOus failure OF
the law proposed. Whether on the whole
the defeat Of the bill Is mistake will then
be an open question; but there Is this 10
say, that the scandalous and dangerous in
consistency OF having one statute requiring
assessors to make ostn that they will assess
and have made their assessment at far
cash value, which other statutes recognize
as legitimate and rs necessary fragrant and
deliberate disregard Of this oath, ought TO
be removed In at least fifteen years there
has been but one assessor'in this county
who has attempted TO live up TO his oath in
making his assessments, and he not only
brought down upon his head the wrath Of
his own town, but the maledictions of the
county board, who ordered him to reduce
his assessment one half (Which he did
under protest. before they would attempt
to "equaliz y throughout the county!
