A Remarkable Lease
one Of the most remarkable leases
ever drawn in the city Of New York,
according to brokers who are cogni-
zant Of its terms. affects choice
plot Of two lots on Fifteenth street.
Long leases for 21 years, with three
or four renewals, are Of common oc-
currence, but in such cases It Is in
variably stipulated that at the ex-
piration Of the first term there shall
be a reappraisement Of the property
and a reimbursement of the rent. But
in the case Of the Fifteenth street
property an unusual condition prevails
IN that the original lease is so drawn
as to make 1t perpetual. More than
that, every succeeding term is to be
at the same annual rate as the first,
so that, should the lease continue 500
years. the holders Of the lease would
stilI be paying the same price to the
owners as was paid at the time the
lease was drawn. One broker who
discussed the matter said that in all
his experience with leasing conditions
on Manhattan he had never heard of
similar case, and in this respect this
property occupied unique position
It is evident that the advantage OF
the lease is entirely with the tenant
inasmuch as regardless of the increase
in the value Of the property the an
nual rate of $500 per year will re
main. That this property is increas-
ing in value rapidly is shown by the
fact that during the past 10 years the
taxes have increased from $1,037 to
$500. Another interesting phase Of
the matter, as pointed out by bro
ker, involves the prospective purchas
er In case the property should be
offered for sale at any time by one
of the heirs. The most logical buyel
would be the lessee, as it might b.
difficult to find buyers under th'
terms of the lease, for an outside buy
er would purchase subject to the con
tions Of the lease, and would there
fore be paying for piece Of real es
tate to which actual possession coul'
never be obtained until the plot ceas
ed to be worth $500 a year.

The adjourned meeting of the tax
payers alliance, which was held at
Dodgeville last Friday to receive the
report Of the committee on resolutions,
was very largely attended and was
fully as earnest and enthusiastic as the
one held two weeks before.
Chairman Taylor opened the meeting
with strong speech and reported the
resolutions. which expressed strong OPP
position to the state government of the
last twelve years, with recommended
tion that the majority of the laws pass
ed during that time, classed as radical
innovations" be repealed and the sew
eral commissions created by them be
abolished
Vigorous speeches followed by Thos.

Dodgeville, p. r. Emert of Avoca and
M. X. Walsh of Brigham.
After the resolutions were adopted by
a nearly unanimous vote, they We're
amended by adding to them the resolu-
tions recently adopted at GAINESVILLE by
protesting taxpayers of Rock county
Besides the regularly chosen dele
gates there We're many farmers and
others present who were unable to at
tend the former meeting.
There was no lack of evidence to
sustain John A. Aylward's contention
| that the protest movement is a real
spontaneous uprising of the people.
The matter of selecting delegates to
attend a state convention was referred
back to the several towns.

--"'""l AND GOOD
The Methodist and Congregational
Brotherhoods Meet in Joint
Session.
INTERESTING ADDRESSES
by President Nauman.-- Response
by President Paeel.

On Monday evening at the Methodist
Church, one of the largest gatherings
of men ever seen in Mineral Point
church met together for mutual fellow
ship and enjoyed some fine speeches
and some good eats.
After some of the old hymns had
been sung and prayer offered, Mr..
Naumau, President of the Methodist
Brotherhood, in happy vein welcomed
the visiting Brotherhood, and Mr.. Pagel,
President of the Congregational Broth
erhood, replied with very enjoyable
and profitable speech.
DR.. Brown was then introduced as the
principal speaker of the evening, Dr.
Brown spoke at length on Man,
tracing his history from earliest times
to the present, and showing how in all
his progress the discovery of law had
been the only means by which he had
been able to make progress; that the
will to do the whole law was the secret
of progress for race or an individual.
He exalted the spiritual part of man,
calling it the subjective mind, after the
usual nomenclature of the times, but
showed how this higher nature might
become master and lift the whole man
into the "superman.' He paid a
splendid tribute to the Bible and said
that every moral problem should be
brought to it for test; it alone had
stood the test of time and experience.
Education was shown to be the devel-
opment of the whole man physical and
spiritual. His address was greatly en-
joyed.
After the address and few minutes
of social converse, lunch was served by
the committee in charge.
After supper speeches We're made by
Professor Gotham, DR.. Hales, Rev.
Barnes and Mr.. Knight These brought
forth cheers for the well chosen words,
and the men stayed until late hour
talking over matters of interest and
planning what can be done to make a
better and more beautiful Mineral
Point. The desire on the part of many
for quarterly joint meeting seems to
be very general.
The thanks of the Brotherhood to the
sisterhood known as the Dorcas Society
is hereby extended.
