SNOW HILL, JUNE 81. 1896.

The fact that Tx Secretary William
&. Whitney reconsidered his published
intention Of trip TO Europe last
week and abandoned the same for
the purpose of attending the Chicago
convention has caused an unlimited
amount Of talk and columns OF newspa
per criticisms. Somuch indeed was said
and written about the matter that Mr..
Whitney, in order to ventilate his
reasons for going to the Chicago con.
vention instead of Europe has pub
lished long letter in full explanation
Of his position in politics, his interest
in the party, and the outcome of the
approaching convention. In his let
ter Mr.. Whitney gives a lengthy,
interesting and convincing argument
for his objections to free coinage
plank in the Democratic platform,
and the adoption Of free coinage by
the United States without the CO.
operation of other nations. He saws
it would virtually reduce this country
TO silver recommendation which would
result in great calamity. In refer
ence to the conjecture as to his being a
possible candidate for the Presidency
Mr.. Whitney says: II ought not to
be necessary for me to say anything Of
personal nature. | find myself,

their statements ready in twenty DAYS
for the assessor. On the back of each
schedule is an oath to which the As
SCISSOR Is required TO swear them, which
states that their list is a full, true and
complete one. and that the sub
scriber has not sought to mislead
the assessor as TO the quantity or quail
ity of his holdings nor tried to evade
the law by converting any of his pro-
perry temporarily into non.taxable
property or securities. This oath can
not be taken before any one except an
assessor, unless the taxpayer resides
out Of the State. The assessor Cannot
charge for making this oath.
PENALTIES AND PUNIsnMENTs.
For making false and fraudulent
return of property there is provided
penalty of fine not exceeding $500
and two years imprisonment. For
entering into any conspiracy between
assessor and taxpayer the fine shall be
one not exceeding $1,000 and i'm

in the case can impose double the
amount of taxes that the defendant
would otherwise have had TO pay.
Persons who fail to send to the asses
sors their schedules have no right to
appeal from the valuation which is
placed upon their property.
APPLY FOR A SCHEDULE
Persons who have received no sched-
ules are bound to appear before the
assessors and notify them that they
have property subject to taxation. If
this is not done and the assessor dis
covers that they have personal pro-
perty subject to taxation. he can value
it at the utmost sum he believes it 10
be worth in cash, and then the person
may be required to pay double the
amount of taxes on this sum for the
first year.
HOW APPEALS CAN BE MADE.
Appeals from the Examinations of
the assessors are to be made to the
boards of control and review, which
are TO begin their labors on the second
Tuesday in September, when the asses
sors are expected TO be through with
their labors In the counties the
county commissioners act as boards of
control and review, and in cases of
inability 10 agree upon any point with
them the taxpayer may appeal to the
Circuit Court.
These are the principal points in
the law which the people generally are
interested in. The law goes into effect
with the tax levy Of next year, and
persons making out schedules now
will have nearly year to correct any
errors they may make.

tect the humblest citizen of the land.
Let me beg of you to give considera-
tion to the issue of this campaign. Take
the issues to be proposed and see If they
are remedies and If they will improve
the condition of the body polite. Every
reform that is good and will better the
condition of the masses is a reform that
should better the condition of this coun-
try. When Abraham Lincoln was asked
whether he would rather be on the Lords
side he said he would rather have the
Lord on his side. That was simply one
way of expressing a great truth, and
that Is what is right will prevail. All,
my friends, If there is one thing taught
by 5000 years of history 1t is that truth
is omnipotent and truth alone will pre-
vail. You may delay its course, but
after while truth will show its omnipo-
tent power, and those who stand in it's
way will be crushed. You ask me IL
these things are right we seek to accom-
plish. I say If these reforms are right
they will be accomplished. thank you."

War Now On.
Baltimore, Md, July 15.-The rate war
between the Baltimore Steam Packet
company and the Seaboard Air Line on
the one side, and the Baltimore, Chesa-
peake and Richmond steamboat com
pany and Southern Railway company
on the other, is becoming hot. The lat
ter companies recently. put on line or
steamers between Baltimore and Nor
folk, invading the Steam Packet COM
pany's (old Bay Line) exclusive territory.
Some slight cuts in rates are also alleged
to have been made. Today the Steam
Packet company retaliated. In connec-
ton with its ally, the Seaboard Air Line,
1t announced sweeping reduction in
all rates, and extending to all the prin-
cipal southern cities. In addition to the
cut in rates the Steam Packet company
will. beginning next Friday, run steam
ers between Baltimore and Richmond,
va. by way of the Chesapeake bay and
the James river, thereby invading the
territory heretofore exclusively con-
trolled by the Southern Railway com
pany.
Baltimoreans are large holders in the
Seaboard Air Line and the Steam Packet
company. and they state, through their
officers. that they will drive the Southern
RAILWAY company out of their territory,
or force them to carry passengers and
freight for. nothing. Some of the cuts
made today were In the neighborhood Of
