Taxpayers may have a lee
way Of from 20 to 30 days after
the county assessor delivers the
tax rolls to the treasurer and
collector in which 20 pay their
taxes without having to pay the
penalty also according to an
opinion rendered by the attor
ney generals department at the
request Of travelling auditor,
Howell Ernest. Copies of the
opinion are being sent to
the trcasurers and collectors Of
the various counties. The opin-
ion is as follows:
Hon. Howell Earnest,
Travelling Auditor,
Santa Fe, N. M.
Dear Sir:
In response to your oral re-
request, / have considered the
question as to whether tax
payers should be charged inter-
est in accordance with the
terms of the statute, from the
first day of December in those
counties where the tax rolls
have not reached the treasurer
and ex-ofRcio collector before
that date.
It would be clearly uniust to
charge that interest when the
taxpayer has had no opportunity
to pay and of-course. he cannot
pay until the tax roll is in the
collectors office. Under these
circumstances. l believe il
would be proper for you tC
recommend to each collector
that as soon as he receives the
tax roll he give public notice
through the press that interest
will be charged beginning up.
on a day not less tharp 0efnty
nor more than thirty days there
ana that this fact be also
stated in the notices which are
customarily sent out to the tax
payers.
Yours very truly,
Signed FRANK w. CLANCY,
Attorney General.

Butter-The butter market remains
about the same with the prices firm.
Interest centers, to a considerable ex-
tent, upon the large orders placed
with New Zealand shippers for deliv-
cries under the new tariff schedule, 1t
being estimated that these will amount
to something like 100000 pounds for
Puget Sound markets, offering strong
possibilities for serious congestion, II
full deliveries are made. The market
at Chicago has been very unsatisfac-
tory, while the receipts show a slight
increase over last week. Prices at
New York remain about the same
with active calls for fresh butter.
Cheese-The market rules steady at
last weeks advance, with twins at
1615c and cream brick at 21c.
Eggs-A still further advance of SOC
has been made this week, local ranch
quoting at SIS and $9.75, while eastern
fresh is S9.75 and $40. Eastern stor
age is at 50 and 1925. At Chicago the
scarcity of fresh stock continues and
prices advance, while the same condi
ton exists at New York, and storage
eggs are moving at a large gain.
Poultry-Chickens ducks, geese
and turkeys remain unchanged, with
seasonable supply and demand.
Fresh Meats-The market fol
dressed meats continues at about the
last weeks quotations, with the trade
becoming brisker.
Lard and Cured Meats-There has
been additional declines in eastern
lards, with the local remaining the
same, while cured meats have had {
slight rise.
Hides and Wool-The market still
continues quiet. Though the call fol
wool is slow, hides are moving freely

Would Prohibit Prison Goods.

Congressman Nolan of California
has introduced bill in congress pro-
hibiting the interstate transportation
of prison-made goods. This legislation
is desirable from two viewpoints.
First, it would tend to stop or re-
strict the competition of prison-made
goods with those Of free labor which,
from the conditions, is unfair to the
free laborer who is supporting him
self and his family; and second, it
would clip the wings Of many mail or
der houses who are selling cheap con-
vict goods in competition with the re-
tailers who are handling goods made
under fair self-supporting conditions.

PANAMA CANAL OK.
TUG GATUN PASSED THROUGH
THE LOCKS TO THE SEA
SATURDAY.
OCTOBER l,I9l3,SEE IT WATER FULL
Operation at Panama Takes Less Time
Than Reverse Trip-Time Is Ad-
vanced Five Days-Expect is
Feet in Cut in 10 Days.

Panama.-The tug Gatun was again
passed through the Gatun locks Sat
urday, this time from Gatun lake to
the sea. The operation consumed a
little more than an hour and a half,
as compared with two hours the day
before.
The trial of the locks Friday was
solely to give Major j. p. Jervey, who
had been in charge of the masonry
works of the Gatun locks as resident
engineer from the beginning, and Ma
jor j. M. Hoffman, who had been in
charge of the construction of Gatun
dam, an opportunity to witness the
passage of a boat before their de-
parture for the United States.
The first large vessel that will be
passed through the Gatun locks prob
ably will be a canal dredge on October
g. The date for the admission Of water
into Culebra cut by means of four &C.
inch pipes, extending into Gatun lake
underneath Gamboa dixie, has been
advanced to October l, five days
earlier than originally planned. This
is due to the cleaning up of the cut
earlier than had been expected
Bottom Already Covered.
Calculations made by Acting Divi-
sion Engineer linn of the central
division indicate that the water will
enter the cut at such a rate that by
October 10 there will be Is feet of
water all the way from Cucaracha slide
to Gamboa, a distance of about six
miles. The bottom of the cut is al
ready partly covered by rain water
and seepage, which has collected since
the removal of the drain pumps
Colonel Gothals las issued an order
abolishing the central division, effec-
tive October 10. This division was
established July l, 1908, and has had
charge of the excavation of the canal
from Gatun to the Pedro Miguel locks,
including Culebra cut. The head of
this division was Lieutenant Colonel
David Du B. Ballard, whose failing
health necessitated his leaving the
isthmus last August. Most of the work
of this division, outside of tn excavat-
Ing by dregdes, will be assigned to
the office of the chief engineer.

New Smaller Paper Currency.

Very shortly the people of the Unit.
ed States will witness a great revolu-
ton in the size and appearance of
their currency, says Bank Notes.
Each one of the two billion notes OF
that kind now in circulation will be
supplemented by uniform pieces OF
currency about three-quarters of the
size Of that in present use.
The change in size is not the only
one. Any note with Washington's por
trait on it will be a dollar; with JEFF
ferson's, two dollars; with Lincoln's
five dollars; with Grover Cleveland's
ten dollars; with Alexander Hamil
toms, twenty dollars, and so on.
This plan will render the raising oil
bills by crooks an impossibility, and
we will have the safest and simplest
system of national currency in the
world.
The new currency will contribute
largely to the convenience of the pub
lie, and will also effect a large saving
in the cost of its production.
Work has been halted on this new
size money, Secretary McAdoo being
very favorably inclined to the change
but thinks it best to let congress dis
pose of currency legislation before
changing the issue, as new Legislation
might make new issues necessary Il
conform to new laws. The new is
sues, when they have replaced the twt
billion odd notes now in circulation
will sound the doom of the counter
feiter. for a standard design can b.
photographed mentally and counter
feits detected easily.
