Tax Agent.
Complicated tax matters adjusted.

The cards above are given to trusted
eonfederates, who place them in the
hands of more or less honest property
holders, with the instruction that if they
want their taxes reduced the card is
sure tip. The more or less honest prop
erty -holder then sends for ''blank blank"
that he may have his complicated tax
matters adjusted. The adjuster comes
along land proposes to have the valua-
ton Of the property reduced to one
half Of the valuation for the previous
year. For his services he charges one
half Of the tax reduction. In short, If the
taxes were 81, 600 and were reduced to
$500, the adjuster would expect to get
$3.50. The reduction is an easy matter.
One of the conspirators, who is a trusted
employe of the assessors Office, has at all
times access to the blotters or pads upon
which the assess ments are entered and
exposed to the public for inspection and
correction. Erasures and corrections,
honestly made, are of frequent occur
renee. Hence the erasures of the con-
spirators would not be noticed, and in ten
minutes, if SO disposed, they might make
changes to defraud the city and county Of
hundreds of thousands of dollars.

BIG MUM CHARLEY.

Ex-Governor Foster of Ohio and His New
Honor-He Is Now a Full-Fledged
Member of the Great Sioux Nation with
Name as Long Is Il Yard of Calico, and
Adhesive Enough to Outwear a Whole
Factory.
CHICAGO, June 10.-A Rosebud Oak
special to the Times says: The happiest
man on the great Sioux reservation is ex.
Governor Charles Foster of Ohio. He
has been made a member of the Sioux
tribe By a unanimous vote of the chiefs
and head man now gathered at the agency,
and barring his blood and habits is as
much of az Indian as any of the thou
sands whole signatures the com mission
is trying to obtain.
The ceremony, which occurred this
morning, was amusing as well as inter-
esting. At the council last night the
chiefs decided to make an Indian of "Cal-
leo Charley" and shortly before noon
they proceeded to put their resolution
into effect. A delegation of twenty odd
chiefs, led by Mrs. Arnold, teacher of an
Indian school on the reservation and an
active member of the Indian Defensive
Association, called upon the commits
sioner. In consequence of her connec-
ton with the Indian Defense Association
Mrs. Arnold is not in favor with the Of
ficials at the agency. She carried an
elaborate feathered tail dress, an article
of Indian fnery worn only by great
chiefs. Governor Foster was seated in the
private Office of Agent Spencer when the
delegation arrived. AS S DON as he looked
up from his work Mrs. Arnold began her
presentation speech, first in English
and then repeating it in the
Sioux tongue for the benefit Of
the assembled chiefs. At the conclusion
of her address, which was of the regula-
ton school-marm style, Mrs. Arnold
handed the trophy to the ex- Governor,
who accepted it with the remark that an
Ohio man was never known to refuse
any thing. AS Foster received the gaudy
present, the feathers in which rival the
rainbow in the variety of their colors,
General Crook took Chief Swift
Bear, the leading Indian here, aside
and asked him to give Governor
Foster an Indian name. Swift Bear
quickly TUNED to his fellows and in gut
teral tones told them that hereafter Gov
ernor Foster would DE known in the
Sioux nation as young Man Proud-of-
Install" This was interpreted by Mrs.
Arnold AMI caused great merrin ent
among the commissioners and the whites
who were spectators, General Warner re-
marking nat the Indian appellatiop
would follow Foster to his grave.
