FOR SUPERVISOR OF ASSESSMENTS

The County Board of Supervisors
will meet in annual session Tuesday
Nov. ~. A new and important duty
devolves upon the board-the cleo
ton Of supervisor of assessments,
nrovided for by law of the last leg
i,Iature. The duties ofthis new coun-
" officer are supposed to be import
gnt, and if properly performed must
radically affect assessments for taxa
ton. 1t is therefore highly desirable
that u capable, courageous ana non
est man be chosen. lie should be a
man familiar with the property inter-
ests of the different classes IN the
several towns, and n good judge OF
value. Further, he should be one
without prejudice .or or against any
class of property or community, and
one not to be sweryed from Il course
of duty by favor, or deferred therein
by fear of opposition or condem-
nation.
There may not be any man who will
measure fully up to the requirements.
but there are a few who are recog-
nized as possessed of the leading
qualifications. Among these few
Hon. James Spensley, of this city
stands prominent, and it said his APP
pointment is favored by several
members of the county board. His
experience and character warrant
confidence that he would discharge
the duties Of the office intelligently,
fearlessIy and honestly.

ways, school houses, creameries,
cheese factories, etc, is clearly
shown, and the names of land own
ers, corrected down to recent date
are plainly printed thereon.

less than one third the price of any
heretofore published, is expected to
meet popular approval and ready
sale. w. III. Il b. J. BENNETT,

MADISON JOURNALS: Why should
not the Republicans or democrats OF
an assembly district go to the polls
and name their choice for the assem-
bly,? Why interpose delegates and
conventions? Does it not confuse
the simplest kind of an issue? Is it
strange that selfish interests forced
to protect tn emselves, would seek to
control the machinery? Is not the
fact significant that many OF the In
fluential men of the corporate world
are masterful, by self or proxy in the
shaping of executives or legislatures?

Milwaukee News: The Pfister
brand of Republicanism is just now
seeking, for obvious reasons, to
identify itself with the brand on tap
in the White House. The effort of the
Phsterites to attach themselves to
the coattails of President Roosevelt
naturally invites comparison be-
tween the Republicanism eXempli-
fled by Phsterism and the Republi-
canism of Roosevelt. The Republi-
canisn which the eleyenth-story
aggregation serves is the same spe-
cies of Republicauism that tried to
tie the hands of Roosevelt when he
was governor of New York and fail
ing forced upon him the vice-presi-
dental nomination. Plattism and
Phsterism are the same thing,
Neither has anything in common
with the Republicanism exemplitied
by Roosevelt. And unless Roose-
welt turns about face and succumbs
to the prompting of ambition, the
forces of the Platts, the Quays, the
Hanuas and the Pfisters will be mar
shalled to oppose his nomination.

The construction of the new L~aughlin
sheet mill is being completed as rapid
ly as possible, and in the last week
has made much progress. The con-
crete foundations for the engines have
been almost completed, and the work
on the foundations for the other mills
will soon be built. II the weather is
favorable during this week work will
be commenced on the outside walls Of
the plant. AS has been exclusively
stated in the Register, the mill will be
of six mills, and from a reliable source
it is learned that a c~orrugating works
will be built in connection to this plant,
which will add much to the size, also
employ many more men. The plant
will be in opposition to the trust.

The completion of the new addition
to this large sheet mill is progressing
as rapidly as could be expected, and
will be ready for operation in June.
The old department worked steadily
last week in all departments, and made
large shipments. They were compelled
to close down yesterday on account Of
high water. and the shortage of gas,

The work on the new mould room

It is with regret it Is learned in labor
circles that Mr.. John f. Wright will re-
move to Steubenville within the next
two weeks. The big improvements I'M
der construction there by the LaBelle
company will make their plant there
much bigger than the works in this
city, and therefore 1t is necessary for
Mr.. Wright to have his headquarters at
S~teubenville. He will, however, neces-
sarily spend a great deal of his time in
this city.
Captain William Travis, manager of
the LaBelle said yesterday that during
the long period he has been at the
plant it was not until within the past
month that the company has ever en-
ployed any but American labor. Of
late, however, labor has been SO hard
to secure that a gang of Syrians were
employed. Even within that short
space some of them have shown such
interest and ability that several have
been put to- helping on the rolls.
The promptness with which the Riv-
erside managers granted the 10 per
cent. advance asked by two different
departments of worknen in the tube
mills within the past two weeks shows
that the big steel company Is willing
to share at least a part of the increased
earnings under the new conditions,
with their employees. 1t has been a
subject for much consideration in Ben
wood of late.
The many friends OF Mr.. Frank
Crockard in this city and vicinity were
overjoyed to learn that he will sue

sition.
