Aggressive Measures to Be Adopted

Aggressive Measures to Be Adopted
With the Poll-Tax DelinQuents.
County Judge Gray is authority for
the statement that unless those who
are Indebted 10 the county for poll tax
are more prompt IN paying the same.
suits win be Instituted against them
individually for the amount due. Judge
Gray expresses the opinion that many
OF those who should be among the first
to pay the tax are endeavorlng, by
deliberate evasion, TO escape payment
OF the small sum which. in many in
stances. represents the total sum Of
taxes paid by them in support Of the
county government.
Good reason has been given for the
belief that certain individuals have been
advising the male citizens not to pay
their road poll lax as the law is con-
flicting and. therefore, unconstitutional
Many Of the best lawyers In the coun-
ty have looked into the matter, as far
as the legal status is concerned. and
pronounce the action Of the county
commissioners in the matter to be per-
fectly tenable. 1t has also been stated
by lawyers OF prominence in the COM
munity that these attempts to cheat
the county out Of a legitimate source
of revenue on unreasonably technical
grounds, are purely Of malicious ma
ture and designed for the purpose of
cutting down the county's income for
political purposes.
However, the law is sufficiently plain
for all to understand. The paragraph
from the codes bearing upon the SUBJ
ject is quoted:
when a supervisor cannot find suf-
ficient property of delinquent out ot
which to make the amount Of his road
tax, or any part thereof, he must col
lect the same, or any part thereof re-
mainlng uncollected. by an action in
his own name against the delinquent,
in any court having jurisdiction there
of. and If judgment be given in such
action against the defendant it shall
be enforced in the same manner as
Judgment for a fine in a criminal
action. All moneys paid to or collected
By the supervisor for road taxes shall
be expended by the supervisor in the
Improvement or repairs on the roads in
his district as may be most needed or
useful"

BODY OF RENTz RECOVERED.
Third Victim Of Explosion Rescued
From the wreck-coroner In
quest-wiId Dynamite
Theories,

The members OF the coroner's jury.
which met yesterday 10 take testimony
concerning the cause OF the death Of
Maurice Moore and ]. c. Shaw, vic.
Tins Of the oil factory explosion, win
leave early this morning for the scene
Of the accident TO investigate the prem
ises.
Nothing OF Importance was developed
al the inquest yesterday aside from the
reports OF the &C sident published in
the Astorlan on the morning after the
explosion. Dr. Henderson, the city
physician. and Mr.. De Force. proprie-
tor Of the factory, we're the principal
witnesses, DR.. Henderson described
me position Of the bodies when found
and explained in detail the injuries re-
sultlng In death. >-SlL. Zg
Almost az the same hour at which
the inquest was being held news was
received that the body Of Chris. Rentz,
who WIS employed at the factory at
the time and who had been missing
since the explosion. had been found
II the river. Later information de-
veloped thar Rentz's body was discov-
cred at the bottom Of the river only
few feet from the point where he
Is supposed to have fallen from the
scow In which he was working.
Deputy Coroner Max Pohl left imme-
diately for the factory on the steam
launch Claud B. Hanthorn and secur-
ed the body. The body had been se-
cured 10 a pile with a rope which had
been placed about the waist OF the
dead man by those who had discov-
cred his body. The body was in a re-
markably fine condition considering the
length Of time It had been in the water.
Many Wild theories have been fIoated
about town as to the probable cause
OF the explosion. the widest OF which
is the suggestion that dynamite may
have been used by someone having
evIl designs against Mr.. De Force and
his property.
City Physician Henderson. who was
one Of the first to visit the premises
on the day Of the disaster states IT as
his opinion that the explosion was
merely another case OF salt boiler"
The water used in the boiler was TAX
en- from the river and heavy deposits
Of sulphur and iron necessarily accu-
mulated. These deposits are invariably
disastrous 10 boilers unless great pre-
caution Is taken TO administer a thor
ough cleansing at brief intervals. DR..
Henderson has had. in former years.
considerable experience with boilers
and. possessing a knowledge OF the
peculiar properties contained in water
and its effects upon boilers. he speaks
as an authority.
The theory Of foul play Is secuted by
all those who have visited the premises
and Is doubted even by Mr.. De Force.
who. aside from the loss OF life. Is the
greatest sufferer from the disaster.
