TAX DECISION RENDERED.
Value Of Property ImmateriaI IT MOI
Disseminated Against.

Value Of Property hmm aterial IT Not
Disseminated Against.
DULUTH, April 6.-Judge Moer has
decided i'll favor Of the county a point
in tax matters that is of a great deal Of
interest to property owners and county
officials. The matter came up in the
casas of the West Duluth Land com.
pany and the Metropolitan Life Insur.
ance company, who objected to the
taxes against certain lands belonging
to them on the ground that they were
taxed a good deal higher than they
should have been. 1t was claimed by
the defendants, and they offered to
prove it, that the assessments were
twice what they should be and that
they were greater than the actual value
of the land. The case came up a day
or two ago and County Attorney
Arbury objected to the introduction OF
any testimony on the ground that,
SO long as it was not shown that the
property was unequally assessed, there
was no for the defendants.
The decision means that SO long as it is
not shown that surrounding property
under the same circumstances is as.
sessed lower than the property of the
objector, there Is no defense, and the
court would not hear any testimony IL
to the value of the land merely tending
to show that the assessment was toe
high. Ii all of the property in the city
was assessed for twice its value there
would be no injustice, as taxes would
still be equal aud it would merely mean
that to get the same amount OF take,
the rate would be lower. All that al
owner can show that will entitle him
to relief is that the land is assessed
higher than that of his neighbor..

PUERTO RICO CAMPAIGN.

Simultaneous with the announce
ment that General Miles and his
army have landed in Puerto Rico
comes the first real note of peace, a
formal application by Spain through
the French ambassador at Washing
tor. This application for termina-
tion of the war, says the Spokesman
Review, will not interfere materially
with the campaign in Puerto Rico,
if the usual delays incident to peace
negotiations obtain in this war.
There is almost unlimited quantity of
red tape about such negotiations,
and il may be months before an ar
mistIce is arranged. 1t is believed
the terms of settlement will include
propositions over which there will
be long disputes.
It seems to be understood by this
time that the United States will de-
mand certain conquered territory, in
all probability Puerto Rico, and pos
sibly more. This claim will be COM
batted by Spain to The utmost and
she will enlist every agency in Eu-
rope to assist in evadirg the surren-
der of territoy. 1t is known to
SPAN, and even better to the rest of
Europe, that colonization will be
vigorously fought by strong party
in America, and this will assist IN
delaying the acceptance of oveltures.
1t is, therefore, most probable that
unless the unforeseen happens, the
signing of peace proclamation will
not be far from the new year.
In the meantime Miles has al ag-
gressive campaign before him, and
he goes prepared TO maintain it until
the American flag dlsplaces the Span
ish standard at San Juan. The isl.
and is practically free from epidem-
les, little yellow fever appears there
and the mountainous character of the
interior makes possible the healthiest
conditions for invaders from northern
climes. He is within easy reach of
a railroad line and can use that for
transportation, or if it is torn up in
places has an avenue whereby artil-
lery can be moved with little diff
Guilty. The distance across the ISL
and is practically nothing. Sixty
miles at the outside is the distance
the troops under Miles will be OBJ
liged to travel to reach San Juan, if
they walk every foot of the way,
and there will be enough of them TO
clear the surrounding country of
guerll!as and small bands .of soldiers.
Long before peace is declared
General Miles should be IN control
of the entire island. Should the
capital offer serious resistance the
feet can approach near enough to
the city to batter 1t down, leaving to
the land forces the siege of the forts,
if it is impossible to make them sur
render by attack from sea.
1t seems as if Miles should have
comparatively easy time In captur-
ing every important point in Puerto
Rico, with small loss of men and
little waste of ammunition. If there
were mistakes in the campaign be-
fore Santiago, they will not be re-
peated before San Juan. The early
subjugatlon of Puerto Rico will per-
NIT of no delays, now that peace is
in prospect, and no stone will be left
uuturned to be completely dominant
there when the time comes to settle
the terms.
