 A Bill in the New York Assembly Provid-
 ing for a Complete Revision.'
 ALBANY, March 11.-In the Assembly Mr. Farquhar has introduced a bill embrac- ing complete revision of the tax laws of the State.
 The bill preserves the collateral and di- rect inheritance tax, and makes the organ ization tax upon corporations one-tenth of one per cent as in New Jersey. The or ganization tax under the present law is one-eighth of one per cent.
 It places a tax on all corporations in the State, foreign and domestic, other than manufacturing corporations, of so many mills which Is calculated to pay State ex penses as nearly as possible, any slight bal ,,<al S,, proportion to their tax roll for local pur- poses. This should be practically nothing.
 The corporations paying this State tax arc to be exempt from taxation for local purposes on all personal property and their stocks and bonds in hands of individual holders shall not be taxable as personal property.
 Local option in taxation for leeal pur- poses is provided for. .....-

Ed. SENTINEL: When the present
Courthouse was built there were pro-
viied rooms to accommodate all the
County officers with offices. The Of
fee now occupied by the Justice Of the
Peace was designated as the Office for
the County Treasurer. When Mr..
Sadler was elected Treasurer, instead
Of occupying that Office he rented it to
Baker 4 Wines the attorneys, and
kept his office at his store. Since that
time all the County Treasures have
in some way been connected with
Paxton & Co.'S Bank or the Eureka
County Bank until the last two terms,
while both Treasursr's have been put
ting the county money OH deposit in
the last named bank, paying charges
for special deposit. The County Treas
urer has to give bonds in the sum Of
$50, 900, and receives a salary OF 500
per month, which ia not large. con-
sidering the responsibility attached +;
yet, while the county has a good,
roomy Office and a fine vault, both in
tended for the use OF the Treasurer,
others not entitled TO their use are
having the benefit OF them. Why do
not the Commissioners. who e to
be moving on new lines, putthe county
vault in the Office originally intended
for the use OF the Treasurer, and not
compel him TO occupy (for safety part
OF the Recorders vault, to the annoy
ance and Inconvenience OF both OF
those officers? OBSERVER.

A River Of Beer.

Last Wednesday, says the Republic
can, w. L. Cole, Internal Revenue
Collector, visited the ruins Of the Boca
Brewing Co. and caused all the beer
remaining in casks, and the barrels to
be spilled" The 5000 tons Of ice
that we're stored over the cellar saved
these casks from burning, and accord
ing TO law the beer had to be de-
stroyed. as it was unstamped. There
was a river OF foaming beer leading
down the hill from the brewery, which
grew larger and larger as cask after cask
vas tapped. The trout in the Truckee
river must have held high jinks that
night, and probably didn't know next
morning whether they were suckers or
bullheads. A mournful assemblage Of
Bocaites stood on the rivers bank and
with fearful eyes watched the sorrow
full waste OF the delicious beverage.
They solemnly resolved to join the
Peoples party and see that a change
is made in the manner in which this
Government and unstamped beer
runs,

In some places in Philadelphia, says
the Times, they have on shelves bot
ties OF whisky and brandy which are
supposed to be very old and are la
bled with different dates. Some Of
them are very cobwebby and dirty, as
II they had laid in cellars for years
and years. But 1t is a queer world,
and people do say that OF the bar
keepers duties is to 20 around every
few mornings and freshen up the cob
webs and put a little more dust on the
1910 brandy and the 1853 whisky.
However that may be, experts assert
positively that neither brandy nor
whisky improves in bottles. but only
in wood. Claret and a few other wines
improve in bottles, and so does ale.

Allowance. to the Fire companies.

Allowance To the Fire Tom panfes.
Our new county dads are rushing
matters in the way Of retrenchment.
They are sweeping in reforms which
meet the views Of the taxpayers, but
do not please everybody in all things.
In view oil the Commissioners having
ordered that the Hooks and Knicks
and Recue Hose companies be allowed
each but sl5 per month for taking cart
OF their respective apparatus and al
ternately looking after the fire plugs,
these companies met to consider what
action should be taken upon the re-
duction. The Rescues met last Mon
day evening and, after u debate, re-
solved that unless the former allowance
Of 500 per month and $40 extra BIZ
monthly be made they would turn over
their hose to the county, close uptheir
hose house doors and disband. They
appointed a committee to 20 before
the Board and state their case. Tho
committee consisted OF Gregovich,
Johnson and Leventhal. The
Hooks and Knicks met last Tuesday
evening and resolved upon not making
threats OF disbanding, but appointed a
committee TO confer with the Board
and see il they will consent to the al
lowance formerly made, and in case Of
a refusal to bring the matter before
their next meeting for further consider
alton.
The grounds taken by the fire com.
panies are that the proposed cut in
their allowance would make but atrih-
ling saving to the taxpayers, but would
be a very serious matter to their jani-
tors in the way OF "bread and butter"
The buildings, apparatus and a part
OF the hose belong TO the respective
companies, and il would he a very
ugly thing, in Ease OF a fire, il the
firemen would refuse TO allow their APP
paratus 10 be used. The committee
appointed TO wait on the Commission
ers, Messrs. Heitmann, Sadler and
Bremenkampf, are taxpayers and con-
siderate business men, who under
stand the ~exigencies OF the case and
will endeavor to convince the Board
that the firemens' claims should be
considered according to their merits.
