SATURDAY, APRIL 80, 1904.

The Gear is reported to be buying,
for cash, war v essels in foreign ship,
yards being constructed for other
nations. This shows a noble disposi-
tion on the part of the Russian ruler.
1t is very probable he has never been
understood before. This wal may on
ly be a means to accomplish that long
l~ooked-for disarmament of nations
Since tile failure of the Hague con.
ference to agree upon a plan, it may
be that the Gar brought on the war
with Japan to conceal his real motive
and has at once started to disarm his
own nation by blowing up his own
ships and, having depleted his fleet,
is now buying the vessels being built
for other nations that he might sink
them too. With this program in full
working order it is only n question
of the strength of the Russian treasury
and the length of the war before the
dream of the peace livers will be rea-
lizeu. Perhaps no is, after all, the

ENFORCEMENT
OF THE TAX LAWS.
Continued hoM paqe 2.

1.-THE statutory provisions requiring
assessors to assess all property Mt its
true value applies, of course, to per
sonal as we'll as to real property.
Tangible personal property is assess
able in the taxing district where it is
found, and intangible personally is as
sessahle to the owner where he re-
sides on the twentieth dav Of May in
each year. Tangible personality in
cludes household and Office furnish
ings, personal effects, goods In stock,
storage or process of manufacture,
machinery not a part of tho real es-
tate, live stock, vehicles, water craft
and other visible property. Intang-
ible personally includes credits,
money on hand or on deposit in banks,
safe deposit or trust companies, shares
of stock in State and national banks,
and other investments not exempt
from taxation.
"Assessors are required to acertain
by diligent inquiry and by the oath
of persons assessed and others, accord
ing to the best of the ability and
Judgment, the names of all persons
taxable in their taxing district, and
the true value of all tho per sonnl
property therein and every inhabit-
ant is required, on application of the
to render n true account of
his name and ratable personally,
money, effects and credits. The
failure of assessors properly to assess
personal property breeds dissatisfac-
ton andsincreases the burden of taxa
tion upon the owners of real estate,
aud also leads to an artiicIally high
tax rate.
"a strict compliance with the pro-
visions OF the new tax act is urged,
in the interest of promoting u tru
and unifrom system of taxation in tho
State of New Jersey.

were put in service ON the Perth Am

are we'll enough in hot weather, when

MONTEzUMA WINS
THE PRELIMINARY
GRINNELL LOSES FIRST BOUT
FOR THE COUNTY SEAT.
County Board Finds that the Petition
of the College Town Is Inadequate
Grinnell, the Railway, Business and
Educational Center of the County,
Not Likely to Give Up the Fight.
Special to The Journal.

Grnnell. Iowa, June 27.-The struggle
between Grinnell and Montezuma. the
former for the possession, the latter for
the retention of the county seat OF
Poweshiek county, came to temporary
close last week, with the advantage rest
ing with Montezuma
Montezuma. the old county seat, is a
town Of 1,40e, on stub of the Rock
Island. in the southern part of the county
The objections to retain the county
government there are that the town Is
small and inaccessible to the larger part
of the county. The one branch line Of
road runs one train a day each way, a
freight and passenger combined. The
courthouse Is old and small. entirely in
adequate to the needs of the county.
Grinnel is busy town Of 5000 on the
main lines of the Rock Island and the
Iowa Central, the terminus Of branch
roads to Montezuma and to State Center,
| and, in addition to having excellent
transportation facilities, Is the business
and educational center of the county.
Hence the desire to have the county seat
changed. The objections are twofold, the
cost Of the removal and the new building
and the opposition Of the residents of
Montezuma.
Early in the spring citizens Of Grinnell
circulated a petition to the county board
that the question of removal be submitted
| to vote at the November election. Over
majority.
| Adherents Of Montezuma then framed
remonstrance to the petition. They did
not obtain a majority of the voters of
the county, but did secure enough sigma
lures from those who had signed the first
petition to reduce Its number below the
majority required by the state law, pro-
vided their signing the remonstrance elm
mates them from the petition. This is the
stand the Montezuma adherents take.
The Grinnell men contend that they have
obtained the necessary number OF peti-
TONERS and that to nullify the petition
their opponents must secure the names
of majority of the voters Of the county
| on their remonstrance.
This in brief was the question before the
| county board. 1t presents point of Law
never passed upon in the state. The
/ board considered the case three days and
it's decision was in favor Of the Monte
| yuma contention.
i If Grinnell rests it's case here, the fgh,
Is ended and Montezuma has won, but II
as threatened, the matter is carried into
the COURTS a long and interesting lega
battle may be looked for.
