County Judges Bond.

Concerning the bond of County
Judge and County Clerk the opinion
says:
while neither the County Judge
nor tue County Clerk are, strictly
speaking, cole ting officers, yet
both THESE officers may at times
nave in thor custody large sums of
money belonging to the State or to
citizens OF the State. This is es-
pecially true of the County Clerk,
who is not only collector of taxes
of those delinquents whose lands
have been sold for taxes, but al
most the sole collector of all the
special license taxes under our State
laws. In recent years the. Legisla-
lures have largely multiplied these
latter objects of taxation. Conse-
quently, they are in addition to the
peddlers', marriage and liquor IL
cense. -

Assessors Bond Light.

OF the bond of the Assessor and
of the Jailer Mr.. Lockett says:
AS to the bond of the Assessor,
we are not inclined to the opinion
that heavy penal bond should be
required. The Court of Appeals has
held that this officer is not liable
for mere mistake in judgment, but
only where the assessment is corr
ruptly or maliciously made, or cor
ruptly omitted to be made. This
ruling is placed upon the very SEN
sible idea that if the Assessor might
be harassed with suits solely for
errors in valuing property it would
destroy the independence of his
judgment, and tend, through fear of
such suits, to minimize the valua-
tons placed upon property. dough

on all taxable property, and the
bond in the several counties should
be fixed in a penal sum, having re-
gard to the total value of the tax
able property in cash.
"The bond of a jailer should be
fixed in an amount sufficient to COW
er acts for which he may become
liable where discharging the duties
which ordinarily devolve upon the
Sheriff, as well as any wrongful act
in receiving as prisoner one not
legally committed, or maltreating a
prisoner while in his custody"

The Great American Woman.
A French literary woman and so
biologist studying the big cities OF
America tells US that our civilization
viii be the best the world has ever
seen. because Of the influence OF the
American woman ON our educational
system and our club life.
1t Is always pleasant to hear nice
things about ones own. and the Ameri-
can man is more easily and surely fat
tered by praise OF his wife and daugh-
tiers than by any other method OF
course. we know that the American
woman Is the finest Of her sex, but
It is not every day that her European
sister win admit il.
The European man has always
known her superiority. and the num-
Der OF American wives In European
homes is proof OF his good Judgment.
On the other hand. it is an encourag-
ing sign Of growing appreciation Of
the American man that a real. titled
aristocrat from the old world has
found the man OF her heart In Balti-
more.
Who knows but one Of these days
we shall have princesses and duchesses
and all that sort Of thing in our best
society, keeping up the drawing room
while the plain American husband pro
duces the shekels to do the keeping?
A vast amount OF American money has
gone to Europe with American brides.
and 1t is no more than fair that
foreign title OF two should come to
this country TO even up.
Earls and dukes bolster Up their /
family fortunes with American wives
and money. so why shouldn't European
ladies OF title take husbands from our
great American nobility to maintain
them I'm dignity suitable to their rank7
