In his report for 1896, just issued,
State Auditor Hipple suggests the neces-
sity of state tax statistlcian who shall
be empowered to enforce the law in re-
gard to tax matters and see that assess
msnts are properly make. He could and
should have power to see that levies in
the different connties were legally made
SO that property would pay tax equally.
Frequent reports show that in many in
stances assessments ara made which are
successfully resisted by corporations
while private individuals contribute un-
knowingly. The public examiner has
already too much to do and cannot at
tend to this, hence the need Of tax
satatistician. Tax sales and uniform
notices OF delinquent sales should be
more thoroughly provided for. In re-
gard to the state tax levey he says the
constitutional .two-mill limit is made
quate and ouhght to be amended and
made three mills and then allow no ad-
d,tional levy for delinquent purposes
THIS would avoid the necessity of issuing
revenue warrants and save much inter-
est to the state. 10 the levy of l.8 mills

cess Of warrants issued on the general

warrants issued were Sl26,l in ex.
cess Of collections. At the present time
it is impossible to say what may be the
condition OF the treasury at the end of
the present fiscal year June 80, 81. But
supposing that the forthcoming legisla-
ture will create indebtedness to the
amount Of 1925, 200 or s15O,OOO, the prob.
able result will be deficiency for the
year
There was on hand October l, this year
s239, ,568, in the various funds aside from
express and sleeping car tax funds which
may be applied to current expenses and
redemption Of revenue warrants. There
are to be paid during the rest OF t! 9
fiscal year $4,000 revenue warrants;
the balance of unexpected appropria-
tions for the present year will be about
$2Go 600 besides the expense incurred
and provided for by the Legislature.
IL the latter item be $l25,OOO, the total
to be paid out to July !, 1897, will be
s643,OOO in rouud numbers. With $685.

lection OF sl5O,OOO in December,

levy Of 1886, 81 900 to keep state war
rauts at par until the end Of the pres
ent fiscal year without the issue of any
additional revenue warrants. No doubt
the collections will be less than that
amount in 1897. Besides these amounts,
the state will receive a large sun. for the
maintenance OF insane which is not ex-
tended or charged at present, SO it is evls
dent to me that the states finances

THE MUNICIPAL COURT.
What Young Thomas Teddy Did.

What Young Thomas Leddy Did,
The most interesting prisoner in the
dock at the Police Court Saturday morn
ing was little Thomas Teddy, bright
eyed boy of fifteen years, whom Chief
of Police George Billings brought from
Bar Harbor Friday. Little Thomas is an
original waif. He came here from the
Orphans Home in Boston.
Lest Fourth of July he is alleged to
have stolen bicycle from Mr.. Waite on
Fanklin street. This he sold for S. to

in the harbor. With the money he
bought some clothes, and soon took ship
ON another vessel for Bangor. He lived
in that town by his wits until after the
Eastern Fair. Then he got onto a
freight car and made his way to Ellis
worth. The Portland police were after
worth police were after him.
The boy heard of it and walked twen-
ty miles to Bar Harbor.
There he got employment in the Hotel
Brewer. He proved very efficient and
was honest so far as the landlord could
tell. Several times money was left in
his way to see If he was honest and each
time he proved all righJ. So the hotel
people cnme to have confidence in him.
When arrested the boy said he took the
bicycle because he wanted to get away
from Portland and having ridden it to
the wharf thought someone else would
take the wheel if he did not sell it.
No friend appeared for the boy in
court. In view Of his youth Recorder
Turner continued the case until next
Monday.
Other cases disposed of were as fol-
lows:

nings, Harry A. Hall, So and costs for

There was some talk Saturday about
the recent cleo tion in Deering being ille-

was 1884" instead of 1885," 1t is true
that there was such a misprint in the
posted copies; butt City Clerk Jones says
that the original warrant which the
aldermen gave to him was correct In
every particular, and that therefore
there can be no question as to the legal
