Sisson Tax Bill.

The Sisson bill amending the District
tax laws is technical in its nature. and
is explained in the report to the House
as follows:
The bill contains two provisions, the
first of which provides that no tax deed
shall issue until all taxes and assess
ments have been paid. This makes no
change in the existing law, and, being
very important in the administration of
tax laws. should, of course, be retained
The second provision, with the
amendment specified, is to the effect
that deed shall issue after three
years from the expiration Of the period
during which certificate is redeem
able. This would operate to limit the
time within which a deed could be is
sued under tax sale to five years from
the date of the sale. 1t seems that
there is no expressed statutory pro-
vision as to any limit of time in which
a tax deed might issue, the law simply
providing that the tax deed shall not
issue until two years after the sale of
the property"

Auditors Fees Were S12,Go0.

The Johnson bill to place the audi
tors compensation on 4 salary basis
rather than on Zee basis is the out
come OF one of the Investigations
which have been taken up by the
House District committee during this
session. The report, which has been
FULLY set forth previously in The Star,
states that the auditors fees last year
were about $4,000.
1t will thus be seen that the net an
nual fees OF the auditor are now ap-
proximately $4,000 more than the sal
airy of the largest salaried offlcer In
the District-the chief justice of the
Court of Appeals. says the report.
The auditors fees are two and one
half times the salaries of the District
Commissioners. the highest executive
officers of the District And it may pc
noted at this point that the Senate
has recently refused to increase the
salaries of the Commissioners"

Expenses of Office Arranged.

The bill also reduces the per diem
fees to be charged by the auditor and
arranges the expenses OF the AUDITOR
Office. The receipts from fees are to
be turned into the Treasury. Scarcely
any discussion ensued on the measure
after it was called up in the regular
routine of the calendar proceedings
Chairman Ben johnson explained what
the bill was designed for and the
House passed il.
The patent Office bill makes many
changes in the force which have been
urged by Commissioner Ewing. As ex-
planned by the letter of the commits
sioner to Chairman Oldfield:
THE greatest and most important
change proposed is to equaiize the
number of first, second. third and
fourth assistant examiners.
The proposed changes increase the
rate of promotion and bring down the
routine of the office to the present
needs of the business of the institution.
1t is explained that the increase in the
force at the office will be fifteen, and
that the increased efficiency of the
Office Will go far to offset any added
expense.

TO TAKE EMBASSY RANK
Chile Likely to Raise the Grade of
Her Washington Le-
cation.

Chile IS expected to follow the example
OF Argentina and be the next nation to
raise its mission in Washington TO the
rank Of an embassy. Formal announce
ment. following an exchange of views be-
tween the Chilean legation and the State
Department, will not be long deferred
Diplomatic circles have been told of the
prospective movement
The three most important nations of
South America. with fuiillment of the
action contemplated by both Argentina
and Chile. will then be represented in
Washington by diplomats of first rank.
Peru, the next nation which will likely
raise the dignity of its mission, is hardly
expected 10 take such action for many
years.
Henry P. Fletcher is the present Alneri-
can minister to Chile. The ambassador
ship Will probably not fall upon mis-
shoulders, when the American mission is
raised, as he is a republican hold-oyer
His resignation is regarded as not far
distant. John W. Garrett the present
minister to Argentina. is to b. retained,
and will be the first American ambassador
to that country.
