County Assessor Lynch stated yes
terday that the valuation of property
in this county for the year 1896 would
be nearly s45,OOO,OOO which, as COM
pared with the assessment of $39, O0O, 900
for last year. means an increase of
nearly $4,000, 00v.
This increase is due to the taxation
of mortgages. Had they not been in
cluded in thesrevenue bill passed at the
last session of the legislature the
valuation would have been substan-
tally the same as last year
Mr.. Lynch said yesterday that up
to date there have been no returns
made in relation to the net proceeds
of mines, but as the time limit is from
the 1st to the 10th of June, he did not
expect any until those dates. How
ever, there might have been a COM
pany or two in advance of the dates.
The assessor expects there will be
several companies filed during the
coming week. The producing mines of
this county are chiefly located in
Bingham, the "Old Reliable" and
there will be several statements from
that portion of the county.

Inent.

The arguments in the petition of Ser
geant Eslinger for writ of mandate to
compel the chief of police and the board
of police and fire commissioners to
restore him to his office of sergeant of
police were resumed before Judge Street
late in the afternoon when his honor
came off the supreme bench.
Attorney Van Colt made the
arguments on behalf of Chief Pratt. Mr..
Van Colts position was that the chief
had full and plenary power to dismiss,
but the board by adopting rules and reg
ufations might by such rules soften pun
ishments and SO modify the power of the
chief to. dismiss, suspend or fine, but in
the absence of any rules, counsel con-
tended, the power, according to the act,
was with the chief.
Counsel held that it was not mandatory
for the board to formulate rules at all,
but in case the board did not fornu-
late rules, if the interpretation of counsel
on the other side is correct, the chief
could never enforce discipline. Mr.. Van
Colt made quite an extended argument
and was followed by Judge Henderson,
who closed the case on behalf of Mr.. Es-
linger, after which his honor took it I'M

Constipation can be cured easily and
certainly by the use of Dr. Pferce's
Pleasant Pellets. They are perfectly
simple-perfectly safe. They are not
at all violent in their action, and yet
they are more certain than many med
icines which are so strong that they
put the system all out of order. The
great advantage of the pleasant Pei
let's is that they cure permanently.
You don't have to keep on taking them.
You don't acquire a pellet habit" as
in using other pills. Take them regu-
larry for awhile, and you are cured per
nGanently. After that, take them only
when you find yourself suffering from
Indigestion There are many medicines
offered for the same purpose on which
druggists make a bigger profit. For
this reason, some druggists would
rather sell the other things If your
own health is of more Importance to
you than the druggists prosperity, you
will insist on having what you ask
for.

JOINT TRAFFIC ASSOCIATION.
Does Not Come Within the Interstate
Commerce Inhibition.

NEW YORK. May 2S.-Judge Wheel
er holds that the Joint Traffic associa-
ton does not come within the inhibition
of the interstate commerce law against
a common carrier entering into a pool
ing arrangement with competing rail-
roads, nor within the scope Of the trust
law of 1890, which classes as conspiracy
any combine for the restraint of trade
Or commerce between the several
states. On the latter point the court
observes:
Railroads do not trade among
the states, but they carry for those
who do so, and what would restrain
their so-cauying would seem to be a
restraint of such commerce.
The case rests wholly upon the con-
tract as made; no unlawful restraint Of
commerce seems to be provided by it,
and no ground for relief under the an
THRUST law is made out. Having
quoted the terms of the joint traffic
agreement, the court rules that they
do not provide FOR lessening the num-
Der of carriers nor their facilities, nor
for raising the rates beyond what are
reasonable. as no provision is made by
the interstate commerce law for enforc-
ing its provisions in equity, except to
carry out the orders of the commission
authorizing that this suit must appear
otherwise or the suit fail The court
does not find this authority in the
power Of the United States government
to exercise general municipal control
over the people. their rights and their
convenience. These railroads. il is
held. are not federal instruments; al
though they may and probably are
engaged in the business of and are
within the control of the laws OF the
government to some extent AS so
engaged no nuisance would be federal
until it becomes actual by obstructing
these functions lin re Debs 5e4 e. s.
Assuming that these suits under the
interstate commerce act can be brought
only to prosecute for violations and
not to provide remedies, the court holds
that only such agreem ants are pro-
hibited as for pooling of freights or di-
vid!rg proceedings Of earnings So far
as this agreement goes each road car
ries the freights it may get over it's
own line, at its own rates, however
fixed, and has the proceeds, net or 9TH
er. of the earnings of itself Provision
for reasonable. although equal or pro-
portionate rate for each carrier. or for
a just and proportional division of
traffic among carriers does not seem
to be either a pooling of their traffic.
or freights or a division Of the earn
ings in any sense. and therefore the
bill is dismissed.

opinion Handed Down.

The supreme court handed down an
opinion in the case of Charles Yost VS..
William Tracey, D. S. Tracey and
Thomas Wand, appellants, reversing the
judgment of the court below and grant
ing a new trial, unless the respondent
shall within ten days file in the court a
consent in writing to reduce the damages
to $780, in which case the Judgment of the
court below must be set aside and judg-
ment entered in favor of the plaintiff for
S100 and costs of both courts.
The plaintiff sued to recover damages
for alleged false Imprisonment AMI he
recovered a verdict for $2SS. Under the
circumstances of the case their honors
thought the damages sustained by Yost
were only nominal and so gave him the
alternative of accepting 500 or having a
new trial.

Mr.. Joseph Chamberlain. colonial secretary,
for modification of the amendments to the
