Chicago, Nov. 16-The bears were in
good form at the opening of the wheat
market today and found encourage
ment sufficient in the news to continue
the selling and hammering proceedings
which have been going on for several
days. The Liverpool cables were not
so well calculated to help the decline.

Attorney General Bishop gave out
two opinions yesterday. one upon a
tax question, and the other regarding
by the state auditor.
The first paper is addressed 10 John
Mowers, county attorney of Beaver
county, and is as follows:
II am in receipt of your favor of
the 11th inst, in which you submit
the following and request my opinion
thereon: First, where taxes become
delinquent on personal property
should the collector first levy upon
the personal property or should the
collector proceed against the realty
first?'
Second, where there is an error
made by a party giving fist of prop
erty, can the commissioners correct
the error after the tax is due. or
should the party pay tine tax as pro-
vided by law and then apply TO the
commissioners for relief
Replying to your first question,
permit me to say, that 1 am of opin-
ion that where the owner of personal
property whJbh mas been assessed is
also the owner OF real estate, that
under secs. 93-103-125 of the Revenue
Act resort should first be had to the
sale of the real estate for the taxes
on the personal property. In the event
that the owner of the personal prop
eTity is not the owner of READ estate
or that by Gae safe Of read estate a
sufficient amount of money should not
be derived to pay the taxes on the
same and the taxes on the personal
properly, then the seizure and sale of
the personal property would be au-
thOrfzed.
AS to your second question, I am
of opiniOn. that the party wOuld be
required to pay the taxes and there
after arDlv to the proper source for
reimbursement.
He evidently had notice Of the as
seSsmeT- TriOr to the meeting OF the
county board of equalization which
2pp-tssd him CO the kind of property
assessed, rs vaaue. etc and the dav
upon which the board of equalization
would meet, and was thus Afforded
an opportunity to go before the board
and have the error corrected, but be
to make Gny application for The cor
rection until after the assessment roll
was fully and finally completed and
the amour OF property assessed had
been certified to the state auditor, as
provided by law
Il know of no provision which
would permit him to make an appli-
cs'-.on for, or that would authorize
the board of county commissioners 10
change any assessment in the assess
merit roll after the same has been
completed and the taxes therein have
become due"

SANDWICH ISLANDS.
Captain Appleton Believes There Is
q Good Future for That Country.


New York, Nov ia Boston special:
Captain Nathan Appleton or this
city has just returned from a two
months trip in Honolulu and Hawaii,
observing while there, with a trained
eye, the social and political conditions.
Honolulu he says, has the stamp
of the United States about it, The
Panama canal takes US at once to this
group of islands, and the important
part they must play in the future of
the DEVELOPMENT Of commerce in the
Pacific ocean. A glance at the map
shows what they are and mean to the
great nations of the world that will
use she canal.
Another want greatly felt there
now is Geographic communication with
the rest of the world, and the begin
ming of supplying this need should
properly be cable to our California
coast After recommending such cable
communication with the islands dur
ing his first term in the White House.
Mr.. Cleveland so changed his views
during the second term that he actu-
ally recommended that we cede one
of the uninhabited islands to Great
Britain as place for cable TO be
landed. If this were granted them, it
is pretty certain that one of their first
acts would be to hoist the British flag
there and that done it is not probable
they would haul it down in a hurry as
Mr.. Cleveland ordered to be done with
ours.
$50 now the question is presented,
What is to be the future of this group
of islands known as The Paradise of
the Pacific? They cannot go back

the country's future. She has taken
her place among the many ex-crowned

LATEST FROM aIERCUR.
The Western Dip Is Attracting Much
Attention.
Mercur, Nov 16.-The Western Dip
still holds its attraction and property
owners are beginning to look after their
interests there. with a little more con-
Germ than in the past. Those who can
do no more are making a struggle to
have their assessment work attended
to and every day brings parties to
town on the hunt for gold locations.
The Omaha still shows high values
and is keeping up its lately acquired
reputation, while La Cigale and Lillian
Russell continue to improve.
Another promising group on the
west dip is the Big Horn, of three
claims. This group is located about
half a mile west of the Sacramento,
and the vein can be traced very plainly
all the way. A shaft on one of these
claims struck ore at ten feet and the
shaft is now ten feet in the ore and
yet the footwall is not in sight. Lower
down the vein has been followed from
the surface and values of SO have been
obtained at ten feet from the mouth of
the tunnel.
Work on the Gold Point near the
Badger will be commenced this week.
The claims are on the west dip, and
the proprietors think they will be in
the swim with other western properties,
before many weeks.
Two twins, who work at the Sacra-
mento, got pretty heavy jag on them
selves last Saturday evening, and about
2 o'clock on Sunday morning, still feel
ing gay, started home. On their way
up tne Sacramento gulch they claim
they were waylaid by two men who
took from them watch, and S14 in
money One of the boys was arrested,
but investigation proved that he was
nowhere in that neighborhood at the
time alleged, so the charge was with
drawn. NO other arrests have been
made, and the general opinion is that
the twins staked their money on the
wrong card.

marvellously quick dsCernment Of the forces Of
English and South African opinion, and his
prompt decisions and resolute action. coupled
with the firmness of the Portuguese Govern
ment in refusing the application for a landing at
Delagoa Bay. Publicity was helpful throughout
the crisis. Mr.. Chamberlain, by taking the
country INTO his confidence and publishing the
new facts from day 10 day. not only commanded
popular" confidence and sympathy. but he also
accelerated the whole movement Of events and
opened ele way for satisfactory adjustment Of
every question al issue in South Africa. The
new democratic policy Of publicity, while it is
open TO certain Inconvenience. is also shown
be most rapid and effective in development and
execution. and most salutary in it's results.
Light is better than darkness for the practical
man of business who is managing state affairs.
and that is the best type Of modern diplomatist
for the Englsh-speakng world.
1t is true that Mr.. Chamberlain has exposed
himself, by his "pushful policy" as ii Is called
TO the sncer that he is conducting an informa-
ton bureau al the Colonial Office. Mr.. Balfour,

public appetite from week to week and day to
day and hour TO hour and then suddenly say
to the newspapers accustomed to this luxurious
fare 4 ain now going to put you on starvation
allowance and tell YOU no more what | send

With more open hostility some critics take adj
va ltagc of President Krtiger's protest to remind
Mr.. Chamberlain that he would better tear
himself away from the crowd looking at him
through his glass house and retire into the back
parlor Of the older diplomacy" These quips
and skits are harmless. when 1t Is universally
admitted that Mr.. Chamberlain has played the
part Of great Colonial Minister and rendered
his country inestimable service by his foresight
and energetic action in mOmentous crisis. Nor
has the success of the back-parlor school of
diplomacy been SO brilliant that there should be
any public prejudice against Mr.. Chamberlain's
new departure in the direction of democrat tic
and popular methods. I. n +.
