and half millions needed to complete
the full amount of six and one half mil
lions. The Executive Committees propo-
stion that the tax in the country parish
es should cease and determine when one
million dollars has been realized from
that source, could not be carried into ef-
feet according to the report of the Law
Committee, which strongly advised
against attempting amendment, hence,
the tax of 3I8 of mill will remain in
force until the four million dollars shall
be collected from the City and country,
on the basis of 3l8 of mill in the coun-
try and 6l8 Of mill in the City.
Up to the time that four million dol
lars shall be realized the City will be
paying rate twice as high as the coun,
try. but after four millions shall be col
lected the tax on country property shall
cease altogether. and the remaining two
and one half millions will be raised by a
tax on City property not to exceed one
and half mills. To the man who owns q
$4,000 worth Of taxable property, is it
not worth while paying 81 1t2c year

All He Had.-There was an amusing
''give away" in case tried in South
ern court not long ago. A colored man,
charged with stealing a watch, pleaded
not guilty; and, moreover, he brought
against the complainant "a counter-char-
ge of assault. This man, he averred, had
endeavored to kill him with an iron
kettle.
During cross examination there was
quite a furry. ''Dare you to say" de
manded the attorney, who had the ne
gro on the grill-''dare you to say that
my client attacked you with kettle?"
''Dat what he done, sah," said the
defendant, with nervous gulp.
"With kettle, eh!' sarcastically re-
iterated the lawyer. "That's a fine story
for a big, strong fellow like you to inn
pose upon this honorable court! Had
you nothing with which to defend
yourself"
"Only de watch, sah," was the un-
wary response; "but what's a watch
agin' a kettle, sah?"-Harper's Weekly.

The Exposition Amendment.

AAV 0AkU0AsAV0 AAsee~@eeeA~s
A changed situation created by the
necessity for raising guarantee fund OF
seven and half million dollars instead
Of the Eve million dollars originally
provided for resulted in the extra session
OF the General Assembly, which Cover
nor Sanders convened in response to re-
quests from the Exposition Company. and
various exchanges and commercial or
gapizations of the City. The amendment
which was enacted by the regular session
held last May provided for tax of 3l8
OF mill on all taxable property in the
country and 6I8 of a mill on all taxable
property in the City of New Orleans.
That tax was intended to produce four
million dollars, the ratio being lib from
the country parishes and 2l3 from the
city.
When. in order to call the bluf made
by San Francisco it became necessary
to raise the guarntee fund to seven and
one half millions it was proposed that
the extra session should amend the JOINT
resolution submitted by the recent session
Of the Legislature in such way as to
limit the amount to bepaid by the coun-
try to one million dollars and to require
New Orleans to raise the six and one
half millions, extending the time Of the
tax until the necessary amount should be
realized. Inc duty Of preparing the
amendment was imposed upon the Law
Committee Of the Exposition Company,
and that Committee submitted the g.
mendment now before the General As
sembly.
The Law Committee was OF the opin-
ion that it was inadvisable to attempt to
amend joint resolution already enacted.
and pending it's ratification. Moreover,
such course would be confusing to the
voters and would probably result in the
defeat OF beth amendments. wherefore,
the cafe way to proceed would be by the
submission of an amendment supplement
tary TO the original amendment and con
veying in this supplementary amendment
required authority to the City of New
Orleans. No change il made in the tax
in so far as the country Parishes are con-
cerned, the tax remaining at 3l8 Of one
mill or. calculated on the basis OF as
sessed values, being follows:
