mend some slight increases, not much
as could be profitably used, but what from
my point Of view are absolutely necessary
for the proper conduct of the office.
Il have recommended an increase Of S40O
In the salary of my first assistant assessor
The duties required of him are principally
of an executive character, combined with a
general supervision of the various details Of
the office, entailing responsibility entirely
incommensurate with the compensation at
tached to the position. In my absence,
from sickness or any other cause, he has to
assume control of the office. and 1 trust
this just recognition will be accorded.
THE place desired to be created, chief
clerk of arrears division, at 81, 500 is long
felt want, and would be followed by very
good results.
I'm submitting my estimate I have left
out the board Of assistant assessors, with
the hope that they may be carried into the
new estimates as separate establishment
which they are.
THE increase in the pay of craftsmen is
urgently recommended The creation of a
messengers place in this Office is very i'm
portant. The other new places requested
are necessary for the proper and satisfac-
tory performance of the arduous duties of
the Office

the memory of this student soldier;
a monument which shall be placed
on the campus of his alma mater.
The university wishes to perpetoate
heroic traditions. The educative
value of these is priceless. The uni

sist wholly of brick and Ct mortar,
of libraries and of laboratories, for
its most precious possessions are
the records Of the noble achieve
ments of those who have honored it
and loved it in life and in death.
This monument will be an inspira-

students" 1t is proposed to raise
the sum of $500 for this purpose.

supreme court Monday by w. G..
HOWE for appellants, Kelsey & Co,

James E. Burford, we'll known
mining operator, became involved
in difference with C. f. Corker,
who had him arrested on a charge
of embezzling a bellows and anvil,
the property of the McKim estate.
We are told that the evidence
showed a complicated set of facts;
that it demonstrated that Mr.. Bur
ford acted openly; that he had paid
$500 on the mining property; that
it was not taken, although the sale
is not yet off, because Corker sold
something claimed by one Cross
man. Mr.. Burford was convicted
in the probate court and fined $40,
but took an appeal and promptly
furnished bonds. His friends feel
confident the outcome will show his
entire innocence of any wrong do
ing and that he has been the victim
of too much confidence"
