ISSUED FRIDAY MORNING.
TAX LIST ADVERTISING.

Considerable comment Is going on
by some disappointed county papers
as to letting the tax sale advertise.
ment this year. We do not care to
enter into any personal controversy
on this subject, but for the sake Of
letting the public understand some
thing about the real substance Of the
matter, we will give a few of the le-
gal aspects. First; we believe that
any reputable attorney, will say, that
It is ut least a question whether 1t is
legal to put up the tax sale advertise
ment IT, the lowest bidder. Second;
that there would be no question as to
the legality of the sale IL any legal
newspaper were designated by the
commissioners and the legal rates,
specified in the law, paid to the pub
Usher. Third; that the right Of the
commissioners to designate any legal
newspaper is unQuestionable. Fourth;
that no matter what rate the publish
er gets for advertising, the full legal
fee for advertising is charged hy the
county auditor. Fifth; that any diff
ference possible between the legal fee
and any lower sum actually charged
is insignificant to the person whose
land is advertised. Sixth; it is ex-
tremely doubtful whether the county
has right to make a profit out of a
tax sale advertisement, as In other
kinds Of legal advertisements the law
strictly prohibits attorneys or agents
from charging more than the actual
prices paid for advertising. Seventh;
the purpose of advertising lands for
sale for taxes is two-fold, to notify
intending or probable purchasers, but
mostly, and particularly to notify
owners and lienors, that the title to
certain lands and lots is IN danger
from non-payment Of taxes.
Legally speaking therefore the
commissioners had a right to desig-
nate any legal newspaper in the coun-
tY. They had called for no bids, but
two Informal bids were filed. These
bids were informal In that they were
not called for by advertisement, and
neither were accompanied by bonds.
1t would be manlfestly unfair to have
So'"'s,aosvs1s's>a.,-..-- IA, ---a>.---,I-r
pers had been given an equal chance
to bid, and conditions of bidding made
public.
As to what is the lowest bid in any
contract is dependent on two things,
the price and services rendered. In
the case under discussion, taking into
consideration the prime object Of
tax SAFE advertisement, to notify
owners and lienors, we leave it with
the Judgment Of the reader, whether
an average price Of eight cents per
description for an advertisement
combining the circulation of this pa
per and the Bathgate Democrat isn't
u better bargain than five cents to
one paper with q much smaller circu.
lation, and that largely of a local ma
ture.

SOUTH AMERICAS TURMOIL.
Peru my Prepared for war with Bolivia
and Ecuador.

Peru IIly Prepared for War with Bolfvfa
and Ecuador.
wAsHINeToN, July f2.-South American
diplomats In Washington are much In
terested In tho press reports that Bolivia
has presented an ultimatum to Peru,
which the latter has rejected, and that
Bolivia and Ecuador have formed an al
lance with the prospect Of making war on
Peru. Tho three countries involved are
without ministers here, as recent revolu-
tions have broken up the legations. The
representatives OF noighboring countries
say Peru and Bolivia are about equally
matched as far as military prowess Is con-
cerned. Peru's former ength has dis
appeared since her war with Chile. The
Chileans took all the Peruvian warships,
and 1t Is believed that one old transport is
ell that remains of the Peruvian navy.
The army Is said to number about 1000
mon. The resources Of the country were
further crippled recently by o revolution
In which the government was overthrown,
the capital sacked and hundreds Of people
killed. Since then there has been ''junta'
running the government until an election
could be held.
Bolivia has no navy, and Der army is
said to be about the same as that Of Peru.

those provinces which had formed Boil

and Is not likely to be.
Ecuador is said to DO In good fighting
trim, as she has just emerged from rev
olution, and all her people are in arms.
But her navy Is Insignificant, her only
good warship having been sold to Japan
some months ago. It looks, therefore, to
those conversant with the situation that
these three crippled countries would not
engage in q very formidable war They
cannot fight by sea, and there are great
stretches Of desolate and mountainous
country between them.
Chile is in no way interested in the trou-
bic. Tho late war appears to have estab-
lished her firmly as mistress Of the west
coast Of South America. She has a pow.
erful feet ranking with some of the Eu-
ropean powers, and none Of the neighbor-
ing republics seem willing to oppose her

crIticizing Amba, sador Eustis.

LONDON, July 12.-The Chronicle this
morning has an editorial commenting
upon United States Ambassador Eustis'
explanation of his talk with reporter of
the Paris Figaro. Tho Chronicle says: "If he
is really laughing all we can say is that he
is the only person to whom the incident
presents itself as n subject for merriment
We need hardly say that 1t would be i'm
possible for him to Admit that he expressed
such an opinion and retain his post. We
readily believe Mr.. Enstis of course, when
he denies the remark attributed to him
about Canada" The Chronicles editorial
concludes that NJ. Rohtier is evidently
gentleman of considerable astuteness, and
that is more than any one can say of Mr..
Eustis. Tho Morning has an article In a
similar strain.

URDANA, o., July 12.-No new forged
bonds have turned up in z. t. Lewis
case. The amount Of sie5, 900 spurious
bonds remains unchanged It now looks
as though Lewis had premcditated this
collapse, and had prepared for it. His
wife went east in April, but turned up at
st. Clair, Mich, later. His daughter also
repaired to St. Clair two weeks ago. A
visit TO the residence last evening revealed
that every particle of clothing of the two
women had been taken away. The seal
skin cloaks had not been forgotten. 10
has just been developed here that Lewis
had a scheme concocted to get hold of
s2500o0 natural gas bonds of this city.
The sudden collapse balked his game.
