freedom The year 1898 was to Irishmen
what 1776 was to Americans. The celebra-

considerable amusement was created Wfen
an assessor asked excitedly, How shall we
estimate the value of a corporate fran
chise?" and was promptly and vigorously
answered by the attorney general, my dear
sir, the law provides taxing officers, such
as assessors to guess at values, and ii en-
ployS attorney generals to guess at the law.
The attorney general does not know thing
in life about values, nor does ne have to
know" As soon as the surprised official re-
gained his scattered senses, he asked, But
suppose the assessor finds himself in the
position that the attorney general occupies,
of being ignorant of values?' Mr.. Ketcham
quickly retorted, Then God help the State"
In a discussion Of the question whether
gas and oil leases should be placed on the
tax-duplicate, the attorney general said:
Until recently I had supposed that the
Legislature had furnished all the machinery
necessary to enforce taxation against all
species of taxable property. but 1 now find
myself in state of mental suspended ami
nation" Those present who knew that the
attorney general had filed a petition for
rehearing in the life insurance tax case, in
which the Supreme Court recently held that
paid-up life insurance policies, although
possessing value, are not taxable, under
stood that Mr.. Ketcham was mildly paying
his respects to that body, and smiled.

Would Have Been Acquitted.

The case of William Allender, who shot
William Horton three weeks ago at the
corner of New York and Blake streets, was
called in Police Court yesterday morning

cation. Allender lived at 400 Minerva street

boarded with them. Horton 1t is claimed,
alienated the wife's affections and caused
her to leave her home and go with him to
a rooming house on North Senate avenue
Allender met him on the street and shot
him.
Allender declined to set up these facts in
justification OF his act. but made a lame
plea of self-defense. He said Horton had
threatened to kill him and that. when they
met, Horton struck at him with a stone
and that he shot him as he turned away.
Judge Cox held him for grand jury action,
but said afterward that he would have dis
charged him had he told the real story.

liquor sold at barrel houses to ascertain if
the stuff is adulterated. The resolution
