The New Assessment.

Mr.. s. r. Lee, assessor, with the assist
ance of Messrs. g. H. Mcknight and
Will Lacroix, has been at work all this
week revising his lists and checking over
the old assessment books, in order to see
that he has made no omissions The in
dications are that he has made most ef-
ficient and satisfactory assessment, and
that there will be handsome increase in
the taxable values of the parish. Values
in horses and cattle are probably de-
creased. owing to the drouth and other
causes, but this is more than Offset by
the increase in other values, particularly
IN the assessment of sawmills and the
large bodies of lands held by spectators.
The beauty of this raise consists in the
fact that an additional so cents per acre
has been agreed upon between the asses
sor and the owners of these lands, and it
applies to all of their lands. In order to
give our people an idea of the increase,
we print the figures in the cases of sew
eral of the larger concerns. viz:

A Populist Apostle of ssReform. .

We note that Sheriff Kemp, for reasons
peculiar to himself, haa in violation of
the law and instructions Of our Police
Jury, placed the roll of delinquent tax
payers in the Chronicle. We have been
robbed ont of several jobs in an unjust
and illegal manner, and we intend to
make it at least expensive to him.-Peo-
pies Demands.
If our memory serves us right, Editor
Dunn has fred this same threat about
suing somebody once or twice before.
We suggest that he put the old chestnut
away for future use, or else bring his lit
tie law suit. He would then learn some
thing more about law than he already
knows. He will please name the law
Sheriff Kemp has violated, and tell us
what right the police jnry had to "in-
struct" him where to publish his sheriff
sales, any more than it has to Instruct
the constables or anybody else.
Talking about robbery. what does he
suppose the people Of Grant parish think
Of his conspiracy with the police jury in
the public printing matter, whereby they
virtually filch from the school fund and
pay him couple Of hundred dollars,
when we offered to do the work for moth
ing, and place that amount Of money in
the school fund? In the last twenty
years history Of Grant parish there has
never been anything to half way equal
the gall Of this proceeding. Talk about
partisanship! In their most partisan ac-
ton. no Democratic police jury was ever
guilty of deliberately and directly con-
senting to depletion of the school fund.
