A DANGEROUS BILL.

The Tax and Assessment bill OF
the Governor is vicious and in
herently dangerous. If anything,
it is worse than the scheme sub
mitted two years ago and de-
feated by an overwhelming ma
jority Of the popular vote.
It virtually converts the exc
cutive into a Russianized autocrat
and gives him absolute control
over the system of state assess
ment and taxation, by delegating
to him the power to appoint the
Tax Commission Of three men,
bers. over whose sessions he Will
preside and ictate the assess
ments throughout the state.
It nullifies the authority of the
Assessors, and confers the power
of assessment, now contided to
them. to the Governor and his
three appoIntees. The assessors
might just as well be legislated
out of office, for their authority is
reduced to zero. Under it, they
will be mere figure heads, subject
to the dictation Of the executive
ard there would no longer be any
necessity for their retention in OF.
flee. This scheme is inc ompatlble
with our theory of government. is
too much power to delegate to the
executive. whose duties are al
ready clearly defined by the con.
stitution, and should not be SER
iously entertained by the begis'
lature.-La. Democrat.

lending listening ear and ex-
pressing a willingness to engage
himself and to tell the history OF
his life, as well as the circum,
stances surrounding the Dunbar
case. Walters displayed true
business spirit by refusing to
listen to the pleas of several Of
these managers, who wanted him
to affix his signature at once to

friend of mine has promised to
secure a lawyer for me"
The parish prison authorities

local authorities shall make OF

before they get word.-States.
