The collection OF the city taxes
should be well considered. The
new collector is a young, energetic,
able man,-as capable as any man
that could have been selected for
the otfice,-he has given the city
bond for the faithful performance
of the duties of his office, he has
able assistants. The new city at
torney is an industrious, good law

officers cannot perform the duties
imposed upon them by the city
charter.

It is stated that the Turkish government

business in this country to remit taxes on
their business and income taxes to the
sultan's officers. These taxes are levied
arbitrarily and their collection is en-
forced by unique methods. One
Armenian doing business in Massachu-

remit an income tax of $500. He refused
to pay the tax, whereupon his brother in

This case was brought to test the power

hang murderers without reference to the
inaction of the governor, in whom a
statute enacted in 1872 makes the issu-
ance Of death warrant discretionary.
This statute provides that prisoners under
