OBJECTS TO PAYING TAXES
Portland Gold Mining Company Says it Has
NOPrOpert7 in Iowa,
INCORPORATED UNO.r WYOMING LAWS
Answer to suit Filled by County
Otherwise similar to These Made.
to Cases Previously on
the Docket.

The Portland Gold Mining company filed
with County Auditor Cheyne yesterday q
protest against the assessment Of its stock
many respects is similar to those filed
against the assessment for the years Of 1891
to 1905, inclusive. suit for which IL now pend
ing in the district court. except that the
protest recites that the company has not
and has never had any property real or
personal or mixed. in the state OF Iowa, or
POtts wattamie county during the year 1876.
The statement that the company has not
had any property in Iowa during 1896 Is
based on the fact that on December $
last. the company reiucorpOrated i'm the
state OF Wyoming and as Wyoming cor
porstion secured a certificate from the sec
rotary OF state OF Colorado to do business
in Colorado as a Wyoming corporation.
At the time OF The refnc0rporation in wy
oming the stockholders surrendered their
stock in the Iowa corporation and were
given an equal share in the Wyoming
corporation in exchange
Copies Of the decd Of sale from the Iowa
to the Wyoming corporal ion, the deed Of all
of its property from the Iowa to the wy
oming corporation and the certificate from
the Colorado secretary OF state are now
on file in the Office Of Saunders & Stuart
the company's local attorneys.
The dissolution OF the Iowa corpora tion
and the reincorporation in Wyoming fol-
lowed the attempt OF the authorities OF

Dickens lovers have no trouble these
days in proving that all our supposed up
to-date Americanisms are merely stolen
expressions from their favorite author.
They have indeed found that Dickens used
many phrases and expressions that have
been taken up today as universal by-words
and the latest acquisition OF the enthusi-
asts OF this sort 10 told in the statement
that Dickens originated the expression
"twenty-three, which in the vernacular
OF the present Is used TO express "all in"
chase yourself" "skidoo" the end" and
many other things
II will be remarked by anybody that IN
the last chapter Of The Tale OF Two
Cities" Dickens describes the procession OF
humsn-laden tumbrils TO the guillotine in
one Of them is Sidney Carton. the hero
In a garden overlooking the hideous ma
chine is a group OF old women knitting
As the heads fall in the basket one after
another the women knit stealthily and
count them out loud The paragraph de-
scrbing the last moments OF Sidney Carton
reads thus:
THE murmuring OF many voices the up
turning OF many faces. the pressing on OF
many footsteps I'm the outskirts Of the
crowd, so that 1t swells forward In a
mass, like one great heave 81 water, oil
flashes away. Twenty-three"

FORT DODGE, Ia, May 12.-(SpeciaL)-
Unable to pay for medical services, George
Orris. sick in the hospital here. has made
a bargain with the attending physician TO
the effect that il the physician will attend
him until his death, his body may after
ward be used for scientific purposes. Aban-
doned by his wife and left to die i'm a
hut on the edge of town, the only earthly
possession the man has is his poor dis
eased body and the flame of life in that
will soon flicker out but his mind seemed
to be at ease when he found he could give
it in payment for medical services and
would not have to be charity patient.
