LIST ALL SUCH PROPERTY.

So the Chicago Times Demands in an
Editorial on the subject
rChicago Times Editorial, May pol
Under the constitution of Illinois
property used exclusively for agricul-
tural or horticultural societies, for
school, religious, cemetery and char
liable purposes may be exempted from
taxation, hut the exemption must be
only by general law. in pursuance
of the authority of the constitution a
general law was made eXempting
from taxation "all church property
actually and exclusively used for pub
lie worship when the land (to be of
reasonable size for the location of the
church building) is owned by the
congregation. There is exemption
also by general law of "all property
of institutions of learning, including
the real estate ON which the institu-
tiOns are located, not leased by such
institutions or otherwise used with a
view to profit"
When the Law was made the pre-
sumption of the Legislature. at mem
bers of which it is possible doctors Of
divinity might have sneered as lack
ing in moral character, was that its
beneflciaries; men of education and
of presumed moral worth, would
never dream of exceeding the linn
itation. But there are instances in
Cook County where, under guse Of
law, church societies and institutions
of learning profit immorally at the
expense of their fellOw-citizens. In
stances have been cited where the
University of Evans ton, having alien
ated property for residence purposes,
has filed no deed of the conveyance
in order that a favOrite Of the Uni
Nersity may live upon property of his
tax free. The proceeding is essen
italy dishonest, woefully discred-
liable.
The most fragrant instance, how
ever, Of outrageous conduct is pre-
sented by the Mccormick Theological
Seminary The contention has been
that the large area of its buildings
used for general renting purposes
was occupied by professors of the in
stitutiOn and the use was legitimate.
But a hall within these grounds ex-
empted from taxation has been opened
rs a Worlds Fair hotel The use is
purely commercial and for profit, but
the property under the educational
clause OF exemption Is not listed for
taxation, aud while an the occupants
0t the tract enjoy every advantage 0f
the expenditure OF city moneys,
while they have police and frc pro-
tcetl0n, sewers aud water supply,
cleaning of streets. aud every consld,
ofation lhat "a given to actual tax.

Cook County is Deputy Assessor flor
the town of Lake View. il HE EA-
GLE recentlylasked him whether the
Presbyterian Theological Seminary
paid taHes on some property Owned
by it Qp in that town. Here is his
reply:
ASSESSORS 0FEICE,
Town OF LAKE VIHw
To the Editor:
In reply to yours Of the 22d inst, would
say there are five acres in our town, sup
osed to elong TO that institution, called
the west five acres of Outlot 10, c. 7. sub
division of F. a Sec 90, 40, Il. and bounded
south by Fullerton avenue, north by Dun
ming straet, vest by Sheffield avenue, with
Montama street dividing it in the center.
They have thirteen two-story brick flats
and six tw o. and a alf- story brick fats on
the property. 1t was assessed Cast year at
$4,000
1t is assessed this year az Sill 365.
We have assessed it ever since Jas. Pease
has been Assessor and ! think they have
always paid the taxes through j. N. Clark,
Agent They never asked to have it ex-
empt and it would not have been.exempted
If they did.
But why they should pay ON the property
in Lake View, which they own under the
same charter as the property in North Chi
cago, and fight the tax in the latter town
is too much of legal question for yours
truly, DEPUTY ASSESSOR
The three blocks of residence prop
erty extending from Dayton street to
Sheffield avenue and from Belden
avenue to Fullerton avenue, ON the
North Side, are not taxed to the ex-
tent of one dollar.
This i'm defiance of all law.
The three blocks referred to are
covered with magnificent residences,
every one Of which is rented, the in
come from each being from SS5 to
5000 per month.
And yet these houses pay no taxes.
They claim exemption because the
title to them is in the trustees of the
Presbyterian Theological Seminary.
The Seminary is located on the
block bounded by Dayton and Halsted
streets, Beldenand Fullerton avenues
Under the law, the Seminary itself
and the residences of the professors
on the same block are exempt.
But the lawexpressly provides that
property belonging to such institu-
tions, used for profit, must be taxed.
In defiance Of this law, three
blocks, or fifteen acres, lying west Of
the one block, or five acres, on which
the seminary is located, 60 scot free,
and the grand residences erected
thereon pay no taxes at all.
The poor people of the city are
taxed to the limit.
This year, the State Board Of
Equalization will add 90 per cent.
more to their burdcnsome load. And
all this time this Presbyterian steal
will continue.
Is this property lawfully exempt
It Is not
Here Is the law on the subject
which the reader can digest Tor him

JEFFERsoNvILLE Ind, is men
toned as the Mecca of eloping
couples who ran away because it was
cheaper to do so than to have suita-
BILE wedding at home. A marriage
occurred recently at Jacksonville
romantic enough to make one forget
the prudent motives Of dozen other
couples. Miss Price was the daugh-
ter of a rich Kentucky farmer vino
had determined that she should be
an old maid. She had a lover, for
whom she left a note in the corner Of
certain field every day, receiving
one in reply. Finally the lover, with
the assistance of a doughty colonel
and two female friends, stole the
lady from her chamber window at
night. The romance is all complete,
for the rope ladder and the covered
carriage and impatient team were all
brought into play. The lovers were
welded in Jacksonville and all that
is now wanting is the forgiveness Of
the brides father This he cannot
withhold, for byso doing he would de-
stroy the symmetry Of the story. No
old man would be so mean as that

Cudahy's New Packing House at Los
Angeles-Personal Gossip.
Los ANGELFs, Cal, May Especial to
The BEE Some uncertainty seems to exist
in Omaha, if one may judge from the res
ports issued from thence upon the matter,
concerning the extent of the investments of
the Cudahy Packing company in Los
Angeles An inquiry from the offices of the
company in this city elected the following
statement:
The Cudahy company has invested here
the cost of erecting the packing house, say
$76, 900; the purchase of the Nadran ranch,
$4,000; total, s27l, 900. Mr.. Cueahy has
also purchased a residence in Pasadena for
sl2, 900, where ais daughter and some other
members of his family now reside.
The packing house is now nearing
completion, and it is thought it will be
ready to commence operations by June l. It
is within the city limits, though down by
the river" and in district where its exis-
tence for the present, at least, cannot be
offensive.
George Hotchkiss, q member Of the Ham
mond Meat company Of Omaha, has been
stopping at Pomona He was accompanied by
II. G. Kimball, formerly president Of the Gan
sevoort bank of New York, but now in the
wholesale fruit business. Both gentlemen,
it is reported, are on the lookout for invest
ments in southern California.
A. L. Tucker, president Of the Citizens
bank of Wayne, Neb., is quartered at the
Horton house in San Diego with his family
w. A. Thomas and M. j, Shackleford of
York, Neb., have purchased the sixteen
helm, for $4,000. Mr.. Wright Is also of
York, Neb., and he has returned thlther
with his family and will remain there
while the other two gentlemen will locate
on the ranch and attend to managing it.
Ex-Mayor r. c. Cushing of Omaha has been
visiting San Diego for the purpose of
examining some placer property there with
q view to purchasing it.
James Patterson, il, cashier OF Peru's
national bank, and his father j. NJ. Patter-
son, both of Plattsmouth, Neb., have been
visiting Riverside.
j. b. Hartwell, postmaster Of Hastings
