OYSTER LEASES.
Tax Commissioner corbin Sustain.
Ruling Against Fishing Magazine.

An interesting epistolatory battle
has been going on for some weeks
between Tax Commissioner William
III. Corbin and the publisher of the
publicity through the columns of the
magazine.
The dispute arose through the state
ment made by Mr. Corbin before the
shellish commission and the commits
sion on equalization of taxation that
Connecticut was the only state which
leased oyster grounds in perpetuity.
The editor of the Fishing Magazine
in reviewing the statement OF Mr.
Corbin in it's columns, said he was
grossly mistaken in the premises, and
that the state of New York leased
oyster grounds in perpetuity
Mr.. Corbin procured a letter from
Deputy Supt of Marine Fisheries
Charles s. Dixon of New York, say
ing that New York state has discon-
tinued leasing oyster lands in perpetu-
ity, but Suffolk county does so lease
its oyster grounds.
The letter reads as follows:
Sir: Replying to your favor of the
Sd inst, beg to inform you that the
state of New York no longer grants
perpetual rights of ownership to any
ground for the purpose of oyster Gull
tivation. All grants in the state under
state control are held under lease.
Many years ago the state granted
franchises in perpetuity, but this was
discontinued many years ago.
Very truly yours,
CLINTON s. DIXON,
Deputy Superintendent of Marine
Fisheries.
New York. March 8. 1911.
Mr.. Corbin submitted the letter to
the Fishing Magazine, which published
it and under date of March 20, he sent
the following letter:
My Dear Sir: Please accept my
thanks for your courtesy giving pub
licity to the correspondence relative to
the granting of franchises in perpetu-
ity by New York state.
Your editorial comment appears to
miss the point of the discussion, and
that is that in our report it was stat
I'd that Connecticut is the only state
which grants perpetual franchises Of
ground for the purpose of oyster Gull
tivation. The inference from your
previous editorial was that New York
state grants perpetual franchises in
the same manner as Connecticut.
While it is not to be disputed that
the county of Suffolk grants such
rights, the state of New York does
not do so, and the fact remains that
Connecticut appears to be the only
state which grants such special privi-
leges.
i appreciate your evident intention
to give q fair statement of the matter.
Yours very truly,
VIM. H. CORBIN,.
Tax Commissioner

BREED THEATER.

The Heart of Savage is interesting
and thrilling the countless numbers
who are attending the Breed this
week, not alone on account of its
magnificent scenery, but also because
of the faultless acting and splendid
plot. The scenes are laid on Mt. Look
out, a peak on the Santa Monica
mountains in California, thus giving
the action a subliminal setting, en-
HANGING the gorgeously savage cos
tunes. and lending an atmosphere to
be obtained in no other manner. No
pains have been spared to make this
film masterpiece, and the patrons
are universal in the opinion that. it
is one of the best of the season.
At the White Mans Door is another
Indian story dealing with frontier life
and showing thrilling scenes, while
the screaming comedy entitled The
Ransom of Red Chief, is equally anus
ing to both young and old, although
dealing wholly with an uncomfortable
yOungster.

saw Partisan Sage advertised, and
thought would try it. Before I had
finished using the first bottle my hair
had stopped falling and my head was
covered with new hair; also removed
all dandrun and today I have lovely
head of hair.
II think Partisan Sage the best hair
restorer and dandruff cure in the world
today. 1t also makes the hair clean,
fluffy and silky, and I would recon-
mend it to every one who wishes a
hair restorer and beautifier - Miss
Mary E. Dickson, 2S7 South avenue,

For men, women and children there
is no hair preparation that's equals

it does just what the American makers
advertise it to do. It banishes dand-
