county tax collector.
Mr.. Noteworthy, leading Cit

be present as a spectator, said:
"If persons having realty arr

taxes then persons only having
personal property should be made

PORrER's BILL
The question that brought
forth the m ost oratory WAS Nc
Leod's resolution, calling on the
legislature to ignore j. G. Por-
ter's ball, now before that body,
in which be asks pay ment for
publishing a delinquent tax list in
1897. Mcleod said that Mr..
Porter, having been paid once
for it, no matter if he did publish
it again at the request of the
comptroller and it's first publica-
ton arose through no errors Or
fault of his, he had gotten
enough money out of it, and that
if he was in the legislature he
would work and vote against it;
the men that presented such
claims were dishonest. as well as
those that voted for them.
Mcleod had put on the war
paint he had laid aside after his
defeat for the legislature in
1898.
Chairman Carney flew the or
atorlcal eagle high and said a
hundred things that in law and a
court of justice would count for
just as much as his opposition
did when he contended that the
old board of county commission
ers in 1897 had no legal right to
give the contract to Mr.. Porter.
But the courts did all the same.
Bill Allen, who has more bust
ness sense in a minute than those
who insisted that the resolution
was the right thing to pass have
in a week, opposed it, and his
reasons are the same as those
held by the state comptroller
and attorney general and those
that ordered the pay
ment of the bill In the state SEN
ate; those of the committee of
the house who reported that it
wasa just and lawful thing to
pay, and when it comes up IN the
house, will pass, as it did in the
and no resolution, passed
by ma jority Of the members of
the board who were working
over and Fexuding old bile"
would stay the paying of the
bill.
The vote on the resolution
stood: Mcleod and Williamson
for it's passa &c; Allen and Chitty
a gainst it. This created a tie,
so Chairman Carney cast the de-
Gliding vote and passed the rcso-
luton.
