The objectionable sin which blighted
the character Of any Scottish judge was
saving on the circuit allowance. says the
CoEnhiu Magazine. The circuit dinners
were sort Of ssturnalia. where dignity
dored its pride as the bottle circulated

Our esteemed contemporary the News

on to state that after drinking a glass
of olive oil, one may imbibe all sorts Of
fiery stuns with impunity; that numerous
glasses of whisky Will not make drunk

from Charleston, first. because there are

Ready-Maae Ancestor..

Howard Paul. in his London Chat,
brings the following story, which, If 1t
be not true, is anyhow ben trovato: "A
certain man who made his pile in South
Africa before the war. being anxious 10
furnish his house in dne style, thought
he would acquire. some ready-rnade por-
traits of ancestors, wherewith TO adorn
his walls. he therefore paid visit to
picture dealer, and was shown a couple
Of portraits of armor-clad warriors, which
took his fancy immensely. The price ask
cd for the works of art was, however, too
high, and Mir. Croesus. who was prone 70
drive hard bargain, said he would think
It over and went away. Some days later
he went to dine at the house Of another
self-made man OF the same genre. and
the first objects which caught his eye
when he entered the dining room were
the two portraits which he had declined
10 purchase. Looking at my pictures, I
see said his host. Grand. are they not?
Hundreds OF years old. too; ancestors Of

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Chicago Chronicle says: ''Megalo-
mania, with which Emperor William is
reported to be suffering, is composed of
two Greek words which together mean
an excessively good opinion of oneself.
The disease has been prevalent from the
earliest recorded time. In genius it is ac-
companied with conclusive proofs, discov-
cred however only after death, that the
diagnosis was erroneous. That a victim
of megalomania may have lucid Intervals
is shown by an order just issued by the
Kaiser to remove from a public institu-
ton near Berlin mosaic in which the
Empress was depicted as st. Elizabeth
and he as the saints husband In mitiga-
ton of the original offense it ought to
be added that the work was in an asy-
lum for the blind. The Kaiser doubtless
contracted the megalomaniacal idea from
contemplation of numerous works by old
masters wherein the burgomaster, his
wife and children are miraculously mixed
up with cherubim and seraphim, hero
plants and household pets"

more than one versed in this especial
branch of the law concerning the trans
fer of title to real property. We be
lieve it is correct. We further believe
that there is vast amount of litiga-
tion in store for those who have pur-
chased property sold on account OF
non payment of taxes, where the de-
linquent tax for which it was sold had
not been published for the informa'
ton of the owners of the property.
This is a matter tho legislature should

Delinquent Tax List.

For some mysterious reason, the
legislature four years ago repealed the
law requiring the publication of the
delinquent tax list of the respective
counties. 'Tis said by some that this
law was repealed in the interest of
economy; others intimate that it was
done in the interest of real estate
speculators. In either case it was
wrong, to both the delinquent tax pay.
er, as well as the purchaser at the de.
linquent sale, or the innocent pur-
chasers from such parties. The pro-
cedure as adopted is in violation Of a
fundamental principle of law. The
Constitution of the United States pro-
vides that no one shall be deprived of
property except by due process of law
There is a maxim of law that every one
has right to his day IN court.
1t is contrary TO established princi-
Piles of law that any one can be de
prived of his property, especially real
property, without being notified by
personal service. or by publication of
summons, which, by the courts, is ac-
cepted as service. When property is
assessed for taxing purposes, the tax
levy becomes lien upon the same;
thus assessed failure to pay the tax
within the time required by law rem
ders it delinquent. A process of court
should be necessary to subject the
property to sale, to satisfy said lien,
that process resulting in a judgment
duly made and entered This would
be due process of law, if the parties

The rush of bills in the Arizona leg
islature is perplexing the solons. The
code commission has revised the code
and it is being considered in commit
tee, but the members go right on re.
vising the code in their own way and
from one to half dozen bills covering
the same subjects have already been
introduced. If there is not great jun,
BILE of laws before this legislature ad-
iourns it will not be the fault of the
members of that body. Railroad ex.
emption bills are now in evidence and
the democrats will vote for them like
little men. Exemptions of this kind
are all right and aid in building up the
territory, but the democrats, if we re-

The counties of Arizona will find it
necessary to fund their floating in,
debtedness and that at once. In this
county of ours the floating indebted
ness witt soon be too great to handle
even by men who have large sums of
money to invest. The uncertainty of
the investment will keep many men
from taking up the secureties and
warrants will go begging in the mar
ket. 1t is to be hoped that this state
of affairs will not be allowed to exist
when it can be remedied by legislative
enactment.
