DREYFUS ON THE STAND.
The Prisoner vehemently Protests His
Innoconce.

Innocence.
RENNEs, Aug. S.-The proceedings of
the courtmartial before which Captain
Dreyfus is on trial opened at 7:l0 a. m.
Captain Dreyfus entered the courtroom
with firm step, though his features
were pallid. He is partly bald and
what hair he has is gray and close
cropped.
Dreyfus, in new uniform of captain
of artillery, dark blue, with red facings,
fixedly regarded the judges, with i'm
movable features and without stirring
hand or foot, scarcely even moving his
head, during the whole course of the
proceedings, except when he entered
and left the courtroom. After the
formal proceedings which occupied a
couple of hours, Colonel Jouaust began
the examination of Dreyfus, respecting
the famous bordereau, and what Drey-
fus did or could have known of its con-
tents.
When Dreyfus, wearing eyeglasses,
rose from his seat for examination, he
stood erect, holding his kept in his hand,
before him. He looked Colonel Jouaust
in the face during the whole interrog-
atory.

There was we'll attended meeting at

went with North Dakota volunteers to

the boys to North Dakota before mus

large majority seemed to favor muster

one member from each town represent

what arrangements could be made for
securing transportation for the boys
from San Francisco to the state.
Sargent County Gopher Tail swindls.
Sargent county has scandal over
the payment of bounties on gopher tails.
It seems that unscrupulous persons
hav taken advantage of the county and
cut the tails of the gophers into many
pieces, counting each portion of tail as
belonging to one gopher, and swindling
the county in this manner. The swim
die is said to involve thousands of dol

preachers. In the congregation
they We got the old fellow who
kicks at everything; they We got
the old codger who could butt
with a billy goat for half an hour
and then send him home by the
drugstore for anti-camia for the
headache; you can't make him
agree to anything or beat any
sense into his head; then there S
the stinger; the long tongued old
sis who can sit in the front parlor
and lick the skillet back in the
kitchen, and last, the stinker;
the rum soaked old reprobate;
every time his wife goes to church
with him she carries a demijohn
on her arm
Mr.. Jones Lit in to sin and sin
ners from various and most un-
expected sides, and didn't give
up the fight until he had the Old
Boy on the run. He lit in to the
drunkard; the sloth; the hypo-
crit; the slanderer; the liar; the
decolette dress, and the bicycle
skirt; the sporty young man who
thinks himself sporty; the young
man who wants to know whose
business it is if he drinks whisky,
coupled with the information that
he don't get drunk.
81 know said Mr.. Jones,
"that whisky makes me drunk
and buttermilk makes me tight.
And then there is politics: I'm
sorry to say | was a democrat,
but thank God L m not . repub-
lican; I'm a gentleman. Maybe
some of you don't know what
that's like. 1t feels kind of pecu-
liar at first, but you'll get used
to it. /"
Mr.. Jones then gave permis-
sion to those who so desired to
part their hair in the middle and
smoke cigaretts, but he said he
preferred to do his up on the side
and leave the cigarettes to dudes
and others of a similar species
who had no brains to disappear.
And jabbing here and hitting
there and punching over yonder.
Mr.. Jones wound up a discourse
some parts of which the fastidi-
GUS would term coarse, but the
majority of which on the whole
would call forcible, but neverthe-
less earnest and straightforward
and admirable for its fearlessness
and hard, solid truths. N. o.

one horse, which was assessed "a
$40. ""rhen why don you l6t
the Sheriff take the horse for
your taxes?' said the officer.
"Ohl but the horse is worth SOB.
90, was the quick response.
TIL is what we would call a
''horse Of another color. How
is such a state of affairs to be
remedied you ask? One remedy
lies in the Board Of Supervisors,
whose imperative duty it is to
raise assessments where they are
too low and where the matter is
brought to their attention, or
where supervisor has personal
knowledge Of the fact. Some
persons contend that the Board
has no right to change the re-
capitulation after the Assessor
has turned over his rolls. If it
has not, then il has no right to
do anything. The rolls are not
complete until they are approved
by the Board and afterwards by
the Auditor. Wherever changes
are needed it is the duty of the
Board to make them; otherwise,
it is of no use for the Board to
waste time in examining the rolls
at all. The Board can and should
change the figures, and the re-
capitulation. and everything else
about the rolls until they are just
in tho sense in which they are TO
be considered. That's what the
Board is for. Tho supervisors
are the financiers OF the county,
having control Of it's aiiairs above
and beyond all its officers, and
the view that they cannot raise
assessments must, for the same
reason, mean that they cannot
lower any, which curtails their
power to such an extent that the
matter is left entirely with the
Assessor and the people. Such
a position is absurd!
Another remedy for undervalu-
alton is the Revenue Agent,
which is the subject matter for
this article, and to whom we now
return. 1t will be said that the
assessment business is too inn
mense for the Revenue Agent to
tackle. Please don't delude your
self with this idea? II is very
mistaken one. The Revenue
Agent will have plenty Of time
after awhile, ana he is going to
take up the counties in the order
in which they come, or as suits
his convenience, and he will
make it his business TO camp
on the assessment rolls. Those
who have been undertaking
their property will have their as-
sessments raised, and then be
made to pay back taxes. This is
! surely coming, sooner or later,
and IL would be decidedly the
/ part of wisdom for the people to
prepare for that great day.
