QUINN IS INDIGNANT.
Gives His Version of the Assessment
of Broadway.

Assessor D. B. Quinn is indignant
over the statement of Spencer Clawson
before the board of county commits
sioners that personal motives had ac-
uated the assessment of the private
-oadway known as Broadway The as
SCISSOR says that Mr.. Clawson contends
that the private roadway belongs to
him, and that that was the reason it
vas assessed in his name. People have
to secure Mr.. Clawson's permission to
Use the roadway, and Mr.. Clawson' S
lain that the roadway belongs to him
as sustained by the lower court.
The custom is, says Assessor Quinn,
10 assess all such rGadways, either by
adding the number of feet in the road
way to the calculation of value of the
adjoining property or by valuing tha
adjoining property as being frontage
Last year Mr.. Clawson's property in
the interior of the block was valued al
$4,000, but this year, on the ground
that it was inside property. it was
valued at from $4,000 to $1,000 less than
his Mr. Quinn thinks that in view Of
this the insinuation made by Mr.. Claw
son to the board was unfair.

I. N. MERRILL.
"reminiscences by a Veteran Mail
Clerk.

1. y. Merrill of the railway mail SER
vice was in ogden yesterday. his reg
ular run being between here and San
Francisco. Mr.. Merrill is one of the
oldest clerks IT. the service, having be-
gun duty in California about % years
ago. For nearly 20 years his run has
been into and out of Ogden. Yester-
day he chatted pleasantly in a renlin-
iscenG way about the mail service in
early days, when Joseph Hall was
postma ster in Ogden, and the postofFice
was room little more than 10xl2 feet:
Mr.. Merrill held his job through many
tuf5ulent campaigns in spite Of the
fact that in those days a sweep nlors
OF less clean was made every four
years, and there used to be applicants
Tor his position in almost every town
along the road.
The contrasts in the methods of then
ard now are suggestive of the great ad-
vance in the mail service The fast
ening or christening of mail sacks in
early days was at least fve-minute
job. and since the fastening was q lac
ing string. Now a few seconds only
are required for such a work.
Mr. Merrill has been in several wrecks
and bears the scars of serious acct
dent after which he was picked uu
for dead However, he apgears good
for at least a quarter of n century
more.

AFFAIRS or THE COUNTY,
AFFIDAVIT OF BISHOP Law
RENEE sCANLAN CONSIDERED.
Patrick Ryan's Claim For Land
Taken For Road Purposes-Mrs.
Tenant Cited to Appear.


The board OF county commissioners,
at their meeting yesterday, took under
consideration the af1idavit of Bishop
Lawrence Scanlan, in which he alleges
that he has been taxed for some prop
erty belonging to the Catholic diocese.
The bishop claims that he holds the
property only as trustee, and that as
the properly is used exclusively for
church purposes, the assessment is il
legal. The matter was referred by the
board to the county treasurer, with the
statement that as the property was a
parsonage, the assessment was erron-
eous.
A statement was received by the
board from c. w. Midgeley, alleging
that the boiler which S. c. Dallas, the
architect, was preparing to put in the
county infirmary, was too small by one
size. The response of Dallas was that
the boiler was adequate, but the board
required a bond of $1,000 be given by
the architect to protect the county from
loss in case the boiler proved to be too
small
Patrick Ryan, who, some time ago,
claimed $500 for a strip of land appro-
priated by ex-County Surveyor Joseph
for road purposes, had another connu-
nication before the board yesterday, in
Wnlch ne asks what action the board
proposes to take, and reneWs the de-
nand for $500 He is represented by
Attorneys McGurrin & McGurrin. The
| board made an order allowing his $50
per acre for the land, and as the prop
erty consists of something less than an
lcre. it is considered likely that a suit
viii follow.
Mrs. Jane Tenant has been cited to
appear before the board and show
3ause why she should not contribute to
