CITY ASSESSMENT SHOWS
A SUBSTANTIAL INCREASE

Special to The Herald.
SAN BERNARDINO, Aug. IA sub
stantial increase in the city assessment
of San Bernardlno is shown by the rolls
just completed by City Assessor Sam
uel Rolfe. The total assessment for
this year is $4,317,573, an increase of
s275,25O over that of last year. This
increase is nearly all in building i'm
provements, very little being added to
the real estate values by the assessor,
though the city has experienced q
marked rise in values during the year.
1t is expected that numerous suits
will soon be begun against property
owners in this city by holders of street
improvement bonds of the series of
1891, of which there are thousands Of
dollars still unpaid. There has always
been some question as to the legality
of these bonds but for some reason the
question has never been satisfactorily
settled by the courts. A considerable
portion of the bonds are held outside
the city, but some are held by local
people, who are also property owners,
against whose property others hold
bonds. This condition has led to
rather delicate situation, as these par
ties are insisting the bonds they hold
shall be paid in full, while they desire
to settle their bonds on a percentage
basis

impression regarding the condition of
the public health
Now what are the fac.s? A day or
so ago the Bulletin contained a dis
patch from yineennes. Ind, stating
thar the village of St Franeisville, H.,
lis miles from that city. was afflicted
with a serious epidemic of malarial
fever. Or. Palmer. who is the as
slstant secretary Of the state board
of health Of Illinois. on reading this
dispatch. felt il was his duty to in
form DR.. Egan at Springfield of the
matter. He accordingly did so. and
DR. Egan wired 10 ST Francisyille at
once to Investigate. A correspondent
of the St Louis Globe-Democrat at
Springfield learned of it. and he sent
the story TO his paper, and that is all
there was to II.
We ask the Telegram this question;
Does il not think it was the duty OF
DIR. Palmer TO inform the Secretary of
the STATE Board of Health of the OUT
break of fever at st Franeisvifle? AS
a health officer of the state he is in
Cairo not merely to assist in the quar-
antine, but il is his duty to report
an outbreak Of any other contagious
disease, in any portion of the state.
ANY six-year-old child knows that this
is so
Assuming that the report published
in the St Louis paper was damaging
to Cairo, which We cannos do by any
sane process of reasoning, we would
like for the Telegram to inform US
how Dr.. Palmer could know that some
newspaper reporter in Springfield was
going 10 ger hold of It? H merely
reported the fact TO his chief, DR.
Egan, which it was his duty to do
The trouble with the Telegram is
that it assumes that nobody knows
where 81. Francisville is exc opt the
Telegram. In other words. it assumes
that the people of Illinois are igno~-
ant and know nothing about their
own state. We think tbs is rather
unreasonable assumption While we
admit the Telegram knows more than
common ordinary people, still, the
people ara not as ignorant frequently
as they are given credit for being.
The kilograms statement that the
physicians under d., Egan who are To-
Gated here are sending out damaging
reports about the health of Cairo is
absolutely untrue. and we defy the
Quixotie editor to C te a single in
stance to substantiate his charge
The inspectors here send out reports
10 nobody DR.. Palmer, the assistant
secretary of the state board of health,
makes his reports directly to DR.. Egan,
and he has made no report that any
reasonable person will not say il was
his duty to make,
The Bulletin would be as quick as
the Telegram maybe quicker--to
enter protest against any injustice
being done tbs city. but we can see
nothing in our contemporary com
plant except a hogey-ayc. worse than
that, we see nothing in ii except mere
/ driyel.
AS a matter of news. we will state
that DR. Palmer received a telegram
from the health officer at st. Fran
cisville yesterday. stating that the re
lpoFts Of the epidemic there had beer
greatly exaggerated, and that while
there were several cases of malaria
there was no serious epidemic.
