Notice to Levee Taxpayers.

The following letter is of interest to all who are subject to. and have not uaid their Levee taxes:
 August 6, 1894. Capt. James Russell.
 Forrest City, Ark.
 Dear Sir;--i am just in receipt of ,hp following letter from Hon. Jas. F. Brown, our attorney, which is sub mitted fer your inspection and infor- nation.
 Dear Sir-Replying to your favor of recent date. in which you ask my opin- ion of the validity of the following res o,utjon passed by the Board of Direc- tors of the St. Francis Levee District at it's annual Lseeting in May, 1894 tow-it: Resolved, that the Secretary is hereby instructed to make full list of all lands now delinquent for taxes throughout the District by coun- ties and send the list for each county 10 the collectors of the respective coun- ties, and that said collectors are hereby instructed to accept the said taxes without penalty or interest until Sept l5. 1894 if the same is found to be law ful.n beg leave to say that I have carfully examined the act of the Gen eral Assembly creating said Board and have been unable to find anything therein which even indicates that said Board is intended to be vested with such power. Tue act defines the du- ties of the Board and of the executive officers of the organization, and while il vests the Board of Directors with rather penary powers. yet they are only such powers as may or might be deemed necessary iI administering the business affairs of the body. and think il obvious that the act nowhere con templates granting of power to the Board whieh would authorize it to leg islate in any way that would either ex- tend or contract. as a matter of sup posed business policy, the time for the collection of the levee taxes or the manner thereof. If the Board has the right to extend the time, It would have right to diminish it, or othwise legls- late so as to make it antagonistic to the real intention of it's creator, as ex- pressed in the face of the act itself Believing that the above answers your enquiry fully, beg leave to reman,
 Yours very truly,
 JAS. r. BROWN, Attorney.
 am directed by President Rodgers to say to you that in view of the above opinion. he cannot direct the return of the delinquent lists to the collectors; but that the taxes of 1893 may be paid through this office without penalty or interest until tie filing of the suits to enforce the collection of penalty or in terest, You will confer favor upon delinquent taxpayers by giving this letter such publicity as you may deem proper, through your county papers or otherwise.
 Very respectfully yours,
 HUGH k. Mo VEIGH, Secretary.

MORE MONEY IN THE sPEAR.


VICTORIA, Sept. 22-lSpecisL. The seal
ing schooner Otto. which reached port yes
terdsy, confirms the reports by other re-
cent arrivals from Berng sea that the
schooner Triumph has snatched the top
liners lanrels from the L mbrina. and Is
bringing home a total catch of 3, 400 skins,
2 100 of which were secured in the sea.
This 10 by large majority the greatest
catch in recent years, and means a snug
fortune for owners, skipper and men.
The Triumph, Capt. Clarence Cox, carried
this season an all-Indian crew of hunters.
several of whom are famous as shots and
spearmeu. They boosted on sailing that
they would surprise the veterans. and they
have. Although the Triumph had eigh-
teen three-meE canoes, the other seslers
are 10th TO coneede the honor of her re-
markahle catch. "She couldn't reach
those numbers" they say, "unless she
took turn at rookery raiding." But the
owners say this would not be done under
any circumstances. and hold that the
schooner's big take is simply evidence
that the sealing business has not been
ruined by the substitution of spears
for shosguns. over which the sealers
raised so loud a protest only few months
ago. The same schooners which report
the TIiumph's rare good luck bring also
the word that by the premature discharge
Of her signal gun, Mate John Graham was
totally blinded ono day last month. He
was taken on board the United States
steamer Mohican a. quickly "a possible
and placed in her surgeons care. The
warship will land him here on returning
south for the winter.
Other schooners To arrive yesterday were
the Ocean Belle. Walter L. Rich and
Theresa. with a combined catch of about
eOo0 skins. They have the usual stories Of
&c eideus and loss. the Belle being one of
the fleet 10 lose men in boats. A. Dollery.
John Baekerson and Claude Laird fern
ing tie Inflated crew. All the seaIers who
have gone into Boring this year sag
that they do not care for the gun any
more: that they can make more money
with the spear. even in competition with
the Indian hunters who are experts in its
use The British Columbia catch this
year will be considerably larger than in
any previous season in the history Of the
industry.
