Editor REoIsTER:
Please explain in what manner NJ. j.
Underwood could be held accountable
for the reduction OF assessment OF Amity
Canal Company lands referred to in the
Sparks. How much was the reduction;
who did it; and what il any reasons were
givens Yours,
INQUIRER.
Mr.. Underwood is not accountable in
any manner whatever. The equalization
OF assessment was made by the board OF
county commissioners and the clerk has
no power in the matter whatever. The
entire statement was one of the Sparks
campaign lies, as the assessment was IN
creased instead OF reduced. The ques-
ton before the board was whether the
lands east Of range a, which had always
been assessed at sl25 per acre, should be
assessed as irrigable or non-irrigable
lands. On the evidence Of the farmers
under the canal they decided to assess
them as non-irrigable, but raised the val
uation to s2 per acre, or 20 cents per acre
more than last year. The reason given
by the commissioners for this action is
that the Amity canal not being finished
go as TO irrigate lands east OF range Al,
the lands we're as non-irrigable as they
were last year, or as il they had been
above the canal. The lands Of every per-
son lying east OF range A, were placed at
the same valuation, and no difference
was shown in favor of the Amity canal.
Underwood had nothing to do with it
in any way.

When We remember those spasmodic
bursts OF sympathy for old soldiers which
sometimes seize the Sparks, we wonder
why they are trying so hard to defeat d.
E Cooper and ]. B. Davis. The real fact
is that the Sparks has no friendship what
ever for any old soldier who refuses to
become a tool of the 1900 gang.

]. S. McClung, candidate for commits
sioner, has been making his canvass over
the county, and stating as fact that E.
NJ. Steward voted to reduce the Amity
Canal Company's assessment from s5 to
e. per acre. Quite number of farmers
have visited the court house this week
to look this matter up, and they find the
following to be the facts: The company
and other lands under the Amity as far
east as the line running north of Granada
are assessed as irrigable lands at IS per
acre. East OF that line the ditch had not
been in condition to furnish water up to
the time OF taking the assessments, May
l, and the lands were therefore not irri-
gable The lands OF both the farmers
and company east Of Granada have
always heretofore been assessed at S1.25
per acre, but were raised this year by the
votes of Steward and Pettee to g. per
acre, although at the time OF assessment
they were still non-irrigable. The far
mers and company were treated exactly
alike. Instead of reduction there was
an increase of 70 cents per acre, which
increased the assessment Of the Amity
Canal Company nearly 90 per cent.

The four offices which have direct con-
troll over the raising and spending of the
county moneys are treasurer, assessor,
clerk and commissioner. In these offices
the qualifications most needed are good
business Judgment, clerical ability and
honesty. Four men better adapted in
oil respects for these offices could not be
found than the republican nominees, d.
E. Cooper, J. A. Williams, NJ. j. Under
wood and c. l. Mcpherson. Elect them
and the business affairs Of the county
will be well and faithfully managed.

The attempt OF the Sparks to work the
last city election into this campaign is
only done for the purpose Of giving the
editor chance to vent his jealous spleen
on the men who beat him SO bad. He
ran for trustee at that election and re-
ceived IS votes out OF total of 1ss. This
shows what the people think of his
methods.

The Allianca affair, while important
and irratating, is now a secondary mat
ter compared with the Nicaragua incl
dent, says washington letter. The
browbeating course Of England toward
that little country and Its determina-
tlon Ito secure $4,000 damages for an
alleged insult, is regarded as Of ex-
ceeding seriousness. Nicaragua is cons
sldered In many ways under the pro-
lection OF the Unietd States, and the
dorndneering policy of England creates
anxiety and irritation as well. 1t is
felt that in this matter vigorous action
Is demanded. and the attitude Of the
present administration Is watched with
interest. There Is curiosity to know
whether that AmerIcanism which
cropped out in the Alliance affair Is
but temporary thing, on whether the
administration has taken new breath
and proposes to astonish the United
States by an aggressive American pol
10Y. 1t is remembered that 1t is Eng
alnd with whom vt is dealing now anu
that the tendency has been ITO bow the
knee to that country There is much
secrecy In regard to this matter, and
equally great pretense as to intentions.
What Is being done 1t is impossible to
learn accurately. The Venezuela boun-
dairy question is also watched with In
terest. In this case, also, England is
the aggressor, endeavoring, in accord
ance with its time-honored policy,
to steal or secure by seemingly legal
means, all the territory possible. Mr..
Cleveland has his hands full, and II
remains to be seen how much force he

1t has been an open secret in Wash

Islands against Minister rhurston has
been o smouldering fire since that gen.

to the fact that congress, while In SEES

SCOTS Emulsion is as much
easier to digest than the plain
