SHERIFF CIlDIHEE
NOW In SEATTLE
UphoIds the Course Of Under Sheriff
Corcoran-WiIl Institute An
Investigation.

SEATTLE.-After an absence Of
nearly six weeks, during which time
he visited in New York Michigan
and several cities in Canada, Sheriff
Cudihee arrived home Saturday morn
ing and appeared at his desk shortly
before noon with a look of complacen-
cy on his face, which little indicated
that he was in full possession of the
facts in the controversy which has
waged between his office and that of
the prosecuting attorney during the in
term. The sheriff was prepared to
meet the numerous inquiries which
were shoWered upon him, however,
and he met all corners with this de-
claration:
L am more than pleased with the
conduct of the office during my alb
sence. 1 highly approve the course of
Under Sheriff Corcoran, and shall
stand by him."
To a newspaper representative the
sheriff not only reiterated this state
ment, but went further. He declared
that if, upon investigation, he became
satisfied that Deputy Sheriff Callag-
han had been guilty of the acts charg-
ed against him by the Clancy Bros,
in their expose of the relations alleged
to have existed between themselves
and Hughey Bean, he would deprive
Callaghan of his commission.
The prosecuting attorney may re-
tain him, if he sees fit, but no man
who is guilty of using the authority
vested in him by this office for other
than legitimate and lawful purposes
can retain his star under my admins
tration,' continued Sheriff Cudihee.
If l find that Callaghan has accepted
SO much as 81 to which he was
not legitimately entitled he will not
retain his commission from me-"
Sheriff, a persistent rumor is in
circulation to the effect that the
slot machine owners are only awaiting
ordered out by your deputy" was
suggested
rs that 500" the sheriff asked, as
he settled into his chair with a puzzled
look on his face.
rs it your intention to abide by the
acts of Mr. Corcoran and keep all ma
chimes from being restored to the
counters?" was asked.
Il believe in law and order, and
shall insist upon preserving the func-
ton of this office as it's chief execu-
tor" responded the sheriff. You may
depend upon it that the prosecuting
attorney shall have no occasion to
proclaim to the world that this Office
is reluctant to perform its duty con-
tinued the sheriff, and the action of
my chief deputy in proceeding along
lines which demonstrated not only
our inclination but ability to do so
will be pursued in the future"

formation that not a day had passed
during his absence that he had not

No Tax to Be Paid In Wisconsin Elk.
cept for Benefit Of the
Schools.

MADISON, Wis, Nov. 3.-For the
first time in the history Of the state no
tax for the support or maintenance of
the state government, or any of the
state institutions will be levied this
year. The condition of the state
treasury is such that all charges
against it for the purposes of the ad-
amply provided for by the money on
hand. There was in the general fund
on Oct. l, 1,415,701.O6. BY reason of
this fact the governor, secretary of
state, and state treasurer by authori-
ty of law, have been enabled to wipe
out the state tax and relieve the peo-
pie from it's burden.
From this it follows that the only
tax to be levied generally upon the
people is that which is solely for the
benefit of the common schools Seven
tenths of a mill on the state valuation
is directed by the statute to be levied
after deducting therefrom 100000 of
the license moneys received by the
state from the railroads. This tax
amounts to $1,021,220 1t is true that
in form it might be called state tax:
in fact it is not so. 1t pertains in no
way to the expense of administering
the state government, or any part of
the large appropriations to the state
university and the normal schools nor
of the 100000 coming to the free
high schools, nor the 100000 to be paid
to the graded schools under appropri-
ations of the last Legislature. 1t is
collected by the state, not for it's ben
eft or use, but solely for the support
maintenance and efficiency of the COM
mon school system of the state. No
part of it is to be expended for any
other purpose.
Besides this, not only the sum COL
lected by this tax is paid over to the
different counties for the support of
the common schools, but the counties
will receive in addition the sum Of
$375,164, making a total to be paid by
the state to the counties for the sup
port of the common schools of 81, 402.

PurdY. the New same Ee Anent.

A recent Wellington, Kas, dispatch
contains the following regarding T. e,
Purdy, who has been appointed agent
of the Santa Fe ct this place:
T. e. Purdy, who has been Santa Fe
agent at Wellington so long that the
memory of the average man runneth
not to the contrary, has decided to
leave the city H. has been offered
a better position at Guthrie and ac.
cepted it yesterday.
Mr.. Purdy has been the most sue
cessful railroad agent who has ever
been stationed in Wellington. The bus
mess of the Santa Fe has grown rap
idly and regularly under his manage
ment, not only because the business Of
the city has increased. but because he
has always gone after everything IN
sight and has always had the conf
dence and good win Of the people of
the city and surrounding country.
