High Assessments

PASADENA. July 3l.-City Clerk Dyer
and his deputies have been bu silly en-
gagged on the assessment rolls for some
time, and will soon be ready to turn them
over to the city trustees, who then sit as
u board OF equalization to hear all COM
plants chat may be made. The sessions
of the board for this purpose, the law
states, must begin on the second Monday
In August which this year means tine
18th. Since an increase in the rate of
taxation is not allowed, and yet more
money is required this year for the ex-
penses of the city government, the yalua
tion placed upon the property has been
coriespondingly increased, and is higher
than any previous year. The following
figures show the increase, which does not
apply to Improvements, but to land val
ues only:
On Colorado street fiom Fair Oaks to
Marengo the assessment is this year S25
per front fooG higher than last year; on
the same street from Marengo to Moline
it is $40 front foot higher. while on
West Colorado street the raise is 50 a foot
to the foot OF the hill and SD a foot be-
yond that. The increase per foot on
other streets is as follows:
On Colorado from Moine to the east city
limits, SO; ON Moline from Locust to East
streets, So; Oh Madison from Walnut to
Center. S3; on Los Rohles from Villa to
Colorado, $3.50; on Euclid from Walnut

Hall or Mike Flannigan

PASADENA, July 31..-The Star has
taken the trouble to look up the record
of A. W. Hall, or Mike Flannigan, which
ever he may be, since this individual OF
the uncertain name at one time, when it
auited his purpose, presented a letter from
an officer certifying that A. ". Hall and
Mike Flanagan are one and the same
person. The letter was used by him
when he applied for admission to a post
of the Grand Army of the Republic not
far from Pasadena. and was rejected on
not satisfactory.
The letter went on to say that one Nike
Flanagan had served In the army. and it
was on the strength of this that the hero
of so many battles noped to gain admis-
sion to the 6. A. X.
Following are some OF the letters which
show what he is:
From DR.. j. NJ. Downs of Compton.
under date Jlly 10Th: | would say that
A. W. Hall is Thoroughly unreliable. U.
S. Grant council No. s, Compton, Cal. .

least 500, for property he borrowed and
never returned. besides money our coun-
ril advanced his wife. | intend to have
aim arrested for the property he got of
us, but have not been able to locate him
Tor so.-e time.
From San Pedro comes similar story.
Mr.. benjamin Hill OF mat place writes
lnder date of July 18th as follows con-
cerning councils of the same order with
which Hall has been connected:
81 will state that A. W. Hall assisted
John Server in forming council Mol, Los
Angeles, and No. > OF Los Angeles, No.
of San Pedro, likewise No. 4 of San
Francisco. A. II. II. wanted No. 3 of
San Pedro to accept him as a member
without any pay or dues. No. 3 did so
accept him. A. W. Hall made No. 3 liza
BILE for debts of his own contracting. The
anem5ers of No. dld suspend him, and
told him he would rot be admitted int
our council again. After that he collected
money for IS and in our name from
Santa Cruz council, but did not pay it to
our council"
A recent letter from an officer of the
National Council, o. L. a. NJ, whose
names we are not permitted to publish,
says with reference to Halls efforts as
an .. L. A. NJ. organizer here:
According to the records III our Office
here Mr.. Hall left council Mol aad joined

PEELED, consequently before he can join
any Other council of the order he must be
reinstated in Mo-. 80

by a Los Angeles grand jury on Septem-
ber 10th on Il charge of forgery.
