Un militar frances, ell genera
Canonge, escribe emitiendo la
opinion de que Ell ejercito de su
nacion, bien mandado, con la
debida fuerza numerical, y la
instruction que es necesaria en-
esta epoca, podria hacer frente
con ventajas al ejercito aleman.
No pretende saber a cual favo-
receria la victoria, sino que Sc
ria una lucha empenada entire
dos ejercitos dignos Ell uno del
otro. Concediendo las atlas cua-
lidades de la infanteria aiema-
ma, hace notar que por espiritu
de tradicion Sc adhere aun a los
metodos a que debio sus exitos
en- 1870. Mucho sc hablo en-
Alemania de la tactica boer,
que ell EmperaIor mismo reco-
mendo; pero esta probado que
la infanteria alemana volvio al
sistema de anles. La compara-
cion de la tactica de los dos
ejercitos al atacar contra artille-
ria, dem uestra, en- sentir del ge-
neral Canonge, que la infante-
ria alemaua es inferior a la
francesa en- algunos respectos

ce de la ale1nana, mientras que

tionablemente superior. Al pre-
sente, Alemania tiene un canon
de tiro rapido capaz de cuatro a
cinco descargas pOr minute, en-
tanto que el usado por Francia
desde hace ocho amos, tiene la
indiscutible ventaja de descar-
gar de diez a ounce disparos
por minute.

TABULATED
Assessment of County
Shows Considerable Increase
Over Preceding Years.
Increase is Slow and Steady. as is
Seen by Comparison Of the Years
1902. 1903 and 1904.

County Clerk c. +. Weldon has
Just completed tabulating the 1901
assessment, on which 1905 taxes
will he based. We publish below a
few statistics taken from the report,
also showing a comparison with the
two preceding years.
II will bc seen that from 1902 TO
1903 the tobacco crop was reduced
onc-half, and last year il was
reduced two-thirts. IL also APP
pears that last year 2,400 acres Of
woodland disappeared in the county.
More than $50 were lost to the
schools Of the county as compared
with the preceding year.
There has been little difference
I in the amount Of corn raised, but a
great reduction in the number Of
bushels Of wheat. although last
year the production pr acre was
greater and the quality was better.
In the corresponding value oI
mules and horses there has been an
increase.
While thcsc values may not rep
resent actual values because they
are given for the purpose Of tax
alton, the statistical parts arr cor
rect. and an increase in an ass,sSeC
value means corresponding in
crease in actual value. Take il al
in all, the slow. steady increase il
the net taxable value of the count!
means substantial wealth.
