When the three County Assessors
sitting at the court house last evening
close their books, they found that
they had placed % names upon the as
EesSments. or the, eassessor O'Iara had
and aSsessDr Wbann SO. There was
continuous crowd In tho room all day,
and when the 10 9ks closed al 5 O'Clock
there were five IN waiting who could

two days Adj NAMES were put upon
the asse nents.
Councilman Pagan did not put In an
appearance all day yesterday. But
young "Billy" McMenamln got
around behind the rail towards even.
iuK, as II lie had special privileges and
watched Assessor O 'Hara closely. He
did not, however. attempt to influence
the assessor. EX-Assessor MoCloskey
was present nearly all day, taking
notes for John Il. Dickey, and MIR.
Dtckey came In two on three times to
SEQ how things were going.
lie did not venture TO tell anybody
how TO spell their names. There seems
to be more attraction for him now in
the room than there was when the
Levy Court wanted him to remove his
office there for the reception Of taxes.
He then preferred having his books in
the second story OF his store Burround-
ed by bnles OF overcoats. and where
nobody could enter except by 'courte-
sy." The assessments, however are
going along very satisfactorily and no
fault can DO found with the assessors.
