GERMAN PROTEST.
A FOrcible Declaration Against the
Provisions of the New Tariff Law.

Washington, August 6.-The German
government has again entered a formal
protest against the application to
German sugar of section 5 Of the new
tariff act, by which such sugar would
be taxed with a higher duty than that
from other countries. 1t is not denied,
however. that the German sugar clear
ly comes within the provision OF sec
ton 5 by reason of the payment OF an
export bounty, but the contention is
made that the additional duty imposed
is in effect a discrimination against
German sugar, which is Incompatible
both with the most favored nation
rights that are secured to German pro-
auctions by the treaties now in force,
and also with the provisions Of the Sar-
atoga agreement of August p, 1891.
AS to the. first contention the German
Charge d'Affaires, Mr.. Won Reichenau,
in his note TO the Secretary Of State APP
pears to revive the position taken in
June, 1896, with respect to the duties
leviable upon bountied sugars. The
matter was then considered in connec-
ton with the discriminating tariff pro-
vision OF August q, 1894, in relation
to salt duties by the Attorney General,
Mr.. Olney, who held that under that
act, salt was legally dutiable. Mr..
Won Neichauch's note refers generally
to treaties, but it seems that his partic-
ular reference is to the treaty of May 1,
1928, between the United States and
Prussia. 1t is observed by the State De-
partment that it is still without any
information from the German govern
ment on the point raised by Mr.. Olney
as to whether the treaty with Prussia
is to be taken as effective with respect
to other portions of the empire, or is
applicable only to the productions of
Prussia exported from Prussia. AS to
the contention that the tariff provision
is incompatible with the terms Of the
Saratoga treaty of August, 1891, the
State Department takes the position that
that agreement ceased with the passage
of the tariff act of August q, 1894,
which repealed section of the act Of
October 1, 1890. No reference whatev-
err is made in Mr.. Won Reichenau's note
to the other provisions Of the act which
extends the scope of the increased du-
ties to include all goods upon which an
export bounty is paid.

COMMISSIONERS MEETING.

The Board of County Commits
sioners met on Monday the 9th. inst
Present Luke Syphus, Chairman;
John Simpson aud james GlIes,
members, and District Attorney +.
r. McNamee.
After approving the minutes of the
November meeting, outside matters
we're taken up.
A petition was presented from
Panaca asking for an appropriation
OF $4,000 to assist in constructing a
small Jail building there. The need
of some such thing has been appar-
ent for long time, the place now
being on the highway between Mil
ford and all points south in the
county Drunken disturbances are
frequent of late and it is proposed to
effectively put a stop to some of
them.
The board concluded it would be
economy in the end to make the
donation, and agreed to do it when
more definite and satisfactory plans
are submitted of what it is proposed
to erect there. 1t is understood the
Jail building will be of stone, to cost
about $500. 90 in all, two thirds of
which Panaca folks propose TO con
tribute themselves.
On motion it was ordered that the
county part with it claim - Dr. Camp
bell, to an old stove, doorless, leg
less and full of holes, for the sum of
$3.50.
The Treasurer's and Auditors re-
port showed the fund to be good
condition and all able to pay out save
the general fund One transfer was
found necessary and $500. was plac-
ed in the Salary fund from the gen
eral fund.
On dismissal of the injunction
suit against the general fund the
treasurer to rc-advertise all money in
that fund
The usual officers We're approved
and the customary list of claims
against the county allowed as appear
in another column in this issue.
No further business appearing the
board adjourned. The next meeting
will occur on January 3rd. 1898.

Central Pacific Reorganization

Central Pacific Reorganization.
The government having foreclosed
on the Union Pacific road and forced
a reorganization of that corporation
it is expected that its next move will
be to foreclose and re-organize the
Central Pacific road. A note was
made last week that the government
is hard at work preparing its case
against the G. p. 1t may be that
the work will be completed during
the coming year.
The government assisted to build
all the Union Pacific lines and the
new company falls into the shoes of
the old, practically. With the Q. p.
however the case is different. Gov
eminent aid was not received to
build either at the San Francisco or
Ogden ends, nor at several other
localities in California, and thus any
outside bidder will find itself with
out terminal facilities. The road
is leased for 80 years to the South
ern Pacific Company. The result of
sale therefore will probably be
that the Southern Pacific will acquire
the road and the same conditions will
exist after the sale and transfer, as
now.

The time for submitting bids on
mail contracts for the four years be-
ginning on the first of next July has
expired. Since the LIST. inst those
interested in the routes feel free to
speak and it appears more bids went
in from this section than was first
supposed. All those who are carry
ing on the routes have made bids,
though all claim there is nothing in
the business unless it can be brought
under one management, Three sep
arate subcontractors operate now
between Milford and DeLamar. The
White Pine Transportation Company
carries from Milford to Desert. }.
A. Denton from Desert to Phoebe,
while W. H, Perry and the Clark Bros.
operate on seporate contract be-
tween Panaea and DeLamar. The
difficulty of adjusting rates between
so many resulted in establish
ing an opposition line last Summer.
Under one management better rates
would probably prevail and one car
rier will probably have the work
after July of next year
The time for paying taxes with
out penalty, ended on Monday
night. About half the names ON the
roll remain unpaid but a majority of
them are non-residents and it is ex-
pected letters with remittances will
continue TO some in, in large mum
bers all this week. The property as
sessed in a majority of these cases is
land in the southern part of the
county and the payments are small
in amount as rule.
