DIYIMS WHO SMOKE.
They Must Preach the Gospel With
Their Mouths Clean.
BAD EXAMPLES SET FOR THE BOTS.
The
Colored Ministers Draw tho Line-
Eigidly at Tobacco.
1 KESOLTjnOXWniCHWASKOT A JOKE)
The colored clergymen of Pittsburg and
Allegheny are starting a new reform. They
have drawn the line at tobacco. Beyond
that, ministerial indulgence may not go. A
month aco the annual conference of the A.
X. E. Church in this section ot the country
was held in the sanctuary on Hemlock
street, Allegheny. The following resolution
was introduced by Rev. John W. Itcilly on
behalf of the Committee on Temperance:
Resolved, That every member or this con
ference be piven six months to Quit the use
of tobacco, so tUa t wo ma v be able to preach
the holy jropcl -n ith clean mouths.
The resolution was adopted. One month
out of the six has now passed.and a reporter
of Thk IlrsrATCH started out to see if the
terse threat for.it is an implied threat
ha hid the effect of decreasing the con
sumption ot tobacco anion" the preachers
yet.
"Was it all a jcke?" he asked Rev. Cor
nelius Asbury, whom he met at the colored
church on "Wylie avenue, a short distance
above the Court House.
"No, sir, it was not a joke," replied the
clergyman. "The resolution meant exactly
what it said. "Why, sir, Bishop Arnctt,
who presided at that conference refused to
license any of the new preachers who then
applied unless they pledged themselves to
abstain from the use of tobacco. He waited
for the reply of each applicant, and they all
had to promise."
The Preachers Will He Watched.
"And I am going to watch tcsec that
these pledged preachers keep their
promise." interrupted Rev. "Mr. Sampson,
who was standing in the room into which.
the reporter had been invited. "If they
don't the matter will be attended to at the
next annual conference."
"Will the resolution be remembered by
the conference next vearin so far as to make
inquiry about its general effect among all
preachers, both old and new?"
"Undoubtedly," replied both the preach
ers almost in the samebreath. Continuing,
IJev. 5Ir. Asbury said: "It is the custom
of our conference every year to ventilate
ihi question. The moral effect of repeated
utterances on the subiect has been rood, and
T may say to yon that comparatively few of
our colored preachers use the weed, xne
resolution this year was very plainly
worded, and I have no doubt that inquiry
will be made next year as to how many of
us quit the use of tobacco."
"The Bishop holds verv strong grounds
on this question," added Rev Sampson,
'as was evidenced by his having the young
candidates for the ministry promise to let
cigars, the pipe and the quid alone. I fav
ored the adoption of this resolution at con
ierence. and I hope it will do much good.
We ministers cannot afford to be smokers or
chewers."
lie Can Set Boys to Smokins.
A colored minister from a suburban town
said: "I can set more boys to smoking
cicars in mv village than any other man
who lives there. How? "Why, by simply
walking down the main street smoking a
toby myself. I am their pastor supposed
to be to them the embodiment of all that is
cleanly, pure and rijrht If I thus publicly
smoke, they will say, 'Surely, if Rev. "Mr.
Blank docs this, it can be no particular
harm. Don't j;ou see, it is the example
that we set. Xo minister ought to smoke
or chew for this reason, if for no other, and
there are other reasons, of course."
One other city clergyman, of the A. M. TL
Church, did not favor the method taken by
the conference of dealing with this question.
He said tobacco was largely a personal mat
ter with preachers, and no one could pre
tend to say that sin and misery flows from
the use of tobacco, as they do from the alco
hol habit. A minister who docs use the
weed is generally a little touchy on the sul
ject, and he should be respected in his
peculiar beliefs. He did not look for a re
opening of the subject at the next annual
conference, at least he expected it to be
treated lightly if it did come up again.
An Kxample for White Ministers.
The reporter asked a well-known white
clergyman his opinion of the movement.
"Very good," he replied, "and I hope it
will bear results worthy of the stamina re
quired to put forward a resolution of that
kind and pass it. Xow. Mich a thing as
that would be impossible in the particular
denomination which I represent. Our
prejehers are largely inveterate smokers and
chewers in this district, I mean, for I know
nothing about the habits of preachers in
otherdistricts. Many of them areextremely
sensitive about it, and would probably de
ride the man who had courage to pose as a
sincere reformer in this respect. Perhaps,
alter all, though, it is better to avoid formal
action on such a delicate subject, and rely
upon a general raising of the tone of the
church for the same good results. In this
way oflense would be averted, and the prac
tice of questionable domestic habits quietly
but firmly discouraged. My word for it,
when a smoking preacher goes to a congre
gation where cleanlv parishioners frown
upon his habit, he will find it out in a more
severe way than his brother preachers can
tell him of it Still, if oar colored brethren
are in earnest about this matter, it will set
a conspicuous example to the white minis
try." YACHTSMEN HELD AS SKTJGGLEBS.
An Unpleasant Happening lo a Pleasure
Craft Parly In the Port of Honolulu.
Sast Francisco, Xov. 1ft A letter re
ceived in this city from Honolulu reports
that a great sensation has been caused there
by the arrest of the owners of the British
yacht. Beadle, who were charged with
smuggling "0,000 English sovereigns into
that port. About September 1, the yacht,
containing Messrs. Bloom and Douglass,
the owners, and a young man named Joseph
Byrne, arrived in the harbor. The party
lcnteu a fine residence, furnished it hand
somely and entertained royally.
On the arrivalof the steams'hip Australia
from th colonies came a detective and a
"storv of the robberv of a bank at Svdnev
of over .".0,000. The dciectia left a pho"
tograph in he possession of Marshal "Wil
son, which tallied with the appearance of
one of the parties here, and lelt on the Aus
tralia for San Francisco, for the purpoc. as
he said, of cabling to Sydney for further
instructions. It was the intention of Bloom
and Douglass lo spend a lew mouths on the
island, but they suddenly changed their
minds and prepared to leave November 5.
As soon as the clearance papers were given,
a charge of smuggling was prepared against
the men, and they were placed under ar
rest. At their trial the Crown asked for
further time, requesting their detention un
t"l the steamer arrived, which would bring
the detective or the desired evidence. The
cabins of the yacht were searched, and no
sovereigns were found. Being unable to
maintain the charge of smuggling the
Crown dismissed the case against the own
ers, and thev sailed away on Monday. Their
destination is said to be Japan, but it is in
timated that they will touch at San Fran

P00E C0EEID0E LIGHTS.
Clectrlc Illumination Badly Needed in the
Postofflce.
There is a good deal of dissatisfaction
among the employes and the people over
the poor lights in the postoffice corridors.
Through an oversight no money was pro
vided for wiring the building, and at pres
ent gas is used. For the last two nights
they have had no light at all, and the busi
ness men and others have had to strike
matches to find their boxes. The air circu
lating in the corridors condenses the gas in
the pipes and the lights go out. It became
necessary to lock the doors during the cold
snap on the Fourth and Third avenue sides,
and only one door was used on the Smith
field street entrance. There was a good
deal of grumbling from people who had to
walk around to the front of the building.
Postmaster McKean has tried various de
vices on the jets without success. First
they had chandeliers, then the Seaman lamp
w as used, but as usnal the cold air put the
lights our. Mr. McKean thinks that elec
tric lights shonld be supplied for the corri
dors at once. The light for th employes in
the mailing departments is sufficient; but
electricity is preferred, as the gas flickers
too much.
Another cause of complaint is the lack of
railings around the stamp windows so that.
only one person could pass through at a
time. At present a crowd gathers, and
women are jostled unpleasantly. It would
not cost much to supply electric lights for
the halls and railings lor the windows.

THE PITTSBUIIG
THE-TOWN I0T WELLS
In McDonald Have Been Disappoint
ing to the Operators.
SOME CHANGES IN THE SITUATION.
MeIlonsXo.'5-2"eeley reported Big; and the
Walker Well Small
BIG PIPE LINE RUNS FROM THE FIEM)
There has been a'decided change in the
tune of the operators in the southwestern
L end of the McDonald field within the past
15 days. Most of the town lot wells have
been completed, and not one in 20 have
come anywhere near the anticipations of
the owneis. The whole aspect of the field
in and around the borough has been one of
disappointment "Where many were called
but few were chosen, and the great crowd of
disappointed operators would now be will
ing to take almost any price for the exceed
ingly small wells which they have drilled.
For "a time it looked as though the town lot
ventures might be good. Northeast of the
bprough were the big Miller and Me vey farm
wells, and directly southwest were the
big Cook lot and the Santers welLs. Fur
ther to tho west were the Butler lot, the
Short lot and the Itoyal Gas Company's No.
3 Sauters Jumping at the conclusion that
these Weill were all connected, and that the
belt was under the borough, scores of men
who could ill afford it leased town lots and
induced machinery men to advance
them the requisite tools to
get down wells on their leases. As
a consequence there was scarcely a back
yard in the whole town that did not have a
rig on it within ten days. All were anxious
to get down first. Tho'y believed that the
first in the sand would get the choice of the
chicken.
Derricks Side by Sid.
It was known by this time that the sand
drained easily, and as it is almost possible
to go from one end of the town to the other
by jumping from derrick to derrick, it is
easy to understand whv there was such a
feverish hustle to complete the wells. One
well in a week ahead of those around it
would doubtless leave its neighbors worth
less by taking all their oil. These wells
have now, with possibly one or
two exceptions, all been finished up,
and also with one or two
exceptions they ljave proven failures.
Taken as a whole, there were at a rough
guess half a dozen persons interested in
each well. In one well there were as many
as 20 persons who owned from one-eighth to
a thirty-second. In others, of course, there
were only two or three partners, but on the
whole it will average, up six to the well.
Counting 40 small wells in this end of the
pool,-the above average would make 240
people who have been disappointed. Many
of these wells which are now making from
30 to 100 barrels a day are being offered at
ridiculously low prices, but no one seems
inclined to buv. In the western part of
the borough they all get their oil from
the fifth sand, which is unusually ca
pricious, and is likely to imitate grand
father's clock at any "moment by stopping
hort
fast of the Soroush.
Over toward the eastern line of the
boroush. and between it and "Willow Grove,
good Gordon sand wells are being found.
These are more hopeful, and may hold out
long enough to make some money for the
owners. It is in this locality that
the venturesome operators are now put
ting in what little spare cash they
may have left. Standing on a hill over
looking the valley yesterday The Dis
TATCH tcout counted 34 new derricks, and
at all but possibly half a dozen the drill was
puncturing.the earth. These wells are a re
sult, of the Bend well and of the Gordon
wells in the eastern part of the borough. It
is not the Gordon, however, upon which
they rely. They are looking for
a cross belt from tho Miller
farm over to the Rend well or from the
Mevey to the Bend. The sanguine operators
figure that they have at least three chances
to make their ventures pay out. These are
two chances for a fifth sand cross belt spoken
of above, and a chance for good wells in
the Gordon sand. The latter may be real
ized at any rate judging from the
only well, in the valley to the
east which has yet reached the Gordon sand.
It is Davis & Brown's No. 1 on the brick
yard lot, located east of 45-degree line
through the Kend well. Yesterday the
brickyard well was drilled deeper into the
Gordon sand and increased its production
from 150 barrels a day to 3G0 from the Gor
don formation.
More Men Than Needed.
Operators are not the only ones who
have been disappointed in the McDonald
field. Ever since the field was first opened
up men have been pouring in from all
Sarts of the country looking for work,
lozens of them had just enough money to
get there, and, consequently, alter the first
few days were compelled to rely on
the generosity of their friends to live.
While speaking of this state of affairs yes'
terday, a, contractor said: "There are six
men for every job. "We cannot hire all of
them, and it is really pitiful. There is lit
tle or no worK Being done in the other fields,
and all of the idle men in them who could
raise car fare have come to McDonald. A
good driller is nearly always in demand
under ordinary circumstances", but when all
of the drillersiu the country pour in upon
us the supply preatly exceeds the demand.
On several wells that I know of old-time
and trusty drillers are working as tool
dressers, where two or three years ago they
would have scorned the job. There is
scarcely anv chance for a general
roustabout down here, and new men
cannot get work as tool-dressers
when old drillers can be employed. It
would be a very good thing if the men in'
the other fields understood the situation so
that they would not come flowing in here
promiscuously without first securing a job
in advance. Should -a new field be devel
oped in the southwest as anticipated it is
very likely that many more men would be
employed than there are at present You
see when operations are active it
takes a good many men to supply the
demand. First, there are the teamsters,
then the rig builders, the tank builders,
and then comes the drilling crew of two
drillers and two tool dressers, who are em
ployed on every well in this countrv, from
35 to 50"days. Thus in putting down a well
eight or ten men are given cmplovmcnt"
BlC Well on the Neeley."
There were several developments of gen
eral interest iu me ucm vesieraay. In the
southwest McCurdy field "W. L. Mellon &
Co.'s No. 5, on the J. M. Neeley farm, got
the pay in the fifth sand and was reported
to have started off at 200 barrels
an hour. This farm is located di
fectlv south of the Kelso farm.
On the east is the Boyce heirs' property,
and on the west the Leonard Shaffer prop
erty. Mellon & Co. 's No. 3 on the Mertz
farm, located south of the Neeley, was re
ported to be eight feet in the fifth sand yes
terday afternoon, aud making ten barrel's an
hour. His No. 4 on the Menz and No. 4 on
the Neeley farm should get the right' spot
iu the fifth sand to-day.
TheOakdale Oil Company's No. 1, on the
Gabriel "Walker farm, was reported last
evening to have been drilled through the
fifth sand and shot. It is showing for less
than 50 barrels a day. This well is located
half a mile northwest of the same companv'a
No. 1, 'on the Baldwin farm, and directly
west of the Mathews well from half to
three-quarters of a mile. It is further to
the west than any other completed well in
this part of the field.
Almost in the Fifth Sand.
The well of Gnffey, Jennings, Murphy &
Co., on the Mathews heirs' iarm, which is
located a quarter of a mile east of the Wal
ker well, was drilling in the bottom of the
fourth sand last night It should be in the
.fifth to-night One of the remarkable feat
ures of this well is there was IU feet of
fourth sand in which there was not a break.
DISPATCH, FREDDY,
The Mathews heirs' well isJ,500 feet west of
the old original Mathews No. 1. Down
backofOakdalcthe Bear Creek Refining
Company finished up its well on
the Campbell property vesterdav.
It was drilled through the fifth" sand and
will be a very small producer. It is almost
directly west of the Walker well and about
amile and a quarter from the latter on an
air line. Thare were no developments in
the slaughter house well at Noblestown
yesterday. In the Southwest McCurdy
field John M. Patterson & Co. ex
pect to complete their No. 2
on the Shaffer farm, Monday or Tuesday.
Greenlee & Forst's No. 2, on the Gamble
farm, was drilling in the fifth sand yester
day afternoon and showing light. They
drilled their No. 1 Gamble deeper yester
day and slightly increased its production.
Shay, Snyder & Co. are on top of the 100
foot sand in their well on thoMalthouse
property at Oakdale.
Small In the Gordon Sand.
Greenlee & Forst's No. 1, on the Bailey
property, is through the Gordon sand and
will make 23 or 30 barrels a day from that
formation. It will be in the fifth Monday
orTuesd.iv. Their No. 4, on the Gamble
farm, should reach tho Gordon sand to-day.
There Tas no improvement yesterday in
tiieir No. 5, on the Mevey farm,
and it is practically a failure. TUeir
Nos. 8 and 1C, on the Mevey
farm will get the Gordon sand the first of
next week. Bartlctt & Sons well, on the G.
Wcttengell farm, located 1,500 feet south
w est of the Walker farm, is drilling at 1,500
feet Down near McDonald the Gringo Oil
Company's No. 1 is making 100 barrels a
day from the Gordon sand. It will be iu the
fifth by Monday. Stevenson & Co.
will get the Gordon sand to-morrow in their
well near the coal tipple. Black & Co. 's
Nickel-plate well, which is making 400 bar
rels a day from the Gordon, will be drilled
to the fifth band next week. Thompson &
Co. expect to reach the Gordon sand to-day
on the Monnlingrig lot The Koyal Gas
Company's No. 5, Sauters, is shut down on
top of the fifth sand and the boiler is being
moved back preparatory to drilling it in.
Their Nos. G and 7 on the Santers should
get the fifth either to-morrow or Monday.
Robison & Co. are down 1,200 feet on the
Pasher lot, and an injunction has been
served on them by some of the neighbors
who claim their houses would be In danger
from fire if the well is finished.
Shay & Co.. on the Verschuren, are on top
of the Gordon sand. The Devonian Oil
Company's No. 4 Fayette and the Oakdale
Oil Company's No. 2Wallace were expected
in yesterday, but up to a late hour last
evening no" word had been received from
them. The latter company's No. 3 Wallace
was drilled through tne Gordon baud yes
terday. Two Drilling Wells at Wildwood.
Wii.bwood This field is practically a
thing ot the past and it is not once a week
that it is heard spoken of now among the
oil fraternity. There is scarcely any drill
ing. Gnffey & Queen have -decided, how
ever, to put down two more wells. They
will be their No. 8 Runga and No. 2 on the
Kolbar 20-acre piece.
One "Well at Turkeyfoot.
TunKKYFOOT Tliis is another spot which
has almost dropped out of sight. There is
plenty of cood territory which will be
drilled over as soon as the excitement at
McDonald subsides. Only one well is now
drilling in the field. It belongs to Murray
& Mosier, and is located on the Ruben
Freshwater farm.
The Buns From the Field.
The runs of the Southwest Pipe Line
Company from the McDonald field Wednes
day reached the unprecedented amount of
120,187.68 barrels. Outside of McDonald
the runs were only 8,770,38 barrels, making
a total of 137,96404 barrels for the day.
There were 72,000 barrels of stock in Green
lee & Forst's iron tanks, which were trans
ferred to the pipe line company, and
is not included in the stock in the
field, which was reduced to 147,000 barrels.
The general production fell off yesterday to
about 63,000 barrels, a reduction of 2,800 J
barrels. The National Transit runs yesterday
were 34,957 75, and their shipments 41,812
.67. The Macksburg Pipe Line runs were
343 barrels. 'The runs of the Buckeye line
were 36,848 33 for'Tuesday and Wednesday,
and the shipments for those days 102,871.47
barrels. The Eureka runs were 7,522.78
barrels; shipments, 1,863.55; and the ship

Morn Oil near Woodsfield.
The Woodsfield Oil and Gas Company on
Monday morning struck a good show of oil
in their well, about one mile and a quarter
from Woodsfield, Ohio. The depth is a
little over 1,400 feet The nearest other
producing well is about six miles south of
Woodsfield.

Pakkersbukg, W. Va. Ira C. Dewitt,
one of the big operators in West Virginia,
is starting a well on a 3,000-acre tract, in
Ritchie county, which he leased from Com
modore Chancellor. Two years ago he had
the same property under lease and drilled
three dry holes. The present well he in
tends to put down to the Gordon sand, pro
Tiding he finds nothing above.

SATURE'SQUEERWAYS
Mr. Edison Is Trying to Hear From
the Sun by Telephone.
HE WILL CSE A MOUNTAIN OP IRON.
Possibility That Niagara's Immense
Power llaj Be Utilized.
THE SEAL'S AFFECTION FOE ITS X0USG
tWnlTTEX FOR THE DtSPATCn.l
"I expect to receive telephonic messages
from the sun before next Christmas," said
inventor Edison a few days ago. "I don't
mean," be continued, "that any son of the
sun will do the familiar 'Hello, hellol Is
that yon, Tom?' But I do expect to hear
the boom and bang and general hubbub that
we know to be constantly going on among
the mighty elements there."
This is the most audacious thing that the
wizard of invention has ever attempted. It
is on a level with the idea of communicating
with the supposed inhabitants of Venus and
Stars, and the trust bequest of 520,000 left
last summer by a French nun, to be given
to the person who shall discover such means
of communication.
The mountainous regions of New Jersey
are rich in iron ore, and Edison is the
owner of a peak, about a mile in diame
ter at the base, which is sup
posed to be an almost solid mass of iron.
For many months the great inventor has
been working to convert this mountain into
a huge telephone. The common telephone
is made by running a wire around the top
of a magnetic bar, and this, when charged
with electricity, enables us to register the
sounds that come in contact with it Edi
son has wound many miles of wire around
the top of his iron mountain, forming an
inductive circuit which will produce power
ful electric currents. This is the means by
which he expects to hear explosions caused
by the gaseous outbursts in the sun, and the
gigantic telephone is so nearly completed
that it will probably be ready lpr a test
within two or three weeks. Physicists gen
erally have no faith in the practicability of
the solar "telephone. But Edison is some
thing of a physicist himself, and his novel
experiment will at least lie awaited with
much interest.
Affection of Seals for Their Young.
The effort of the United States and En
gland to stop the indiscriminate slaughter
of seals in Bering Sea has led to some inter
esting discoveries relative to the habits of
the valuable animal. It was shown in the
course of the investigation that thebrcetfing
places selected by the seals are often 50
miles from their feeding grounds. This fact
led Mr. Blaine to infer that many young
seals must perish as a consequence of the
mothers being killed while in quest of their
daily food.
But Sir Charles Tupper seemed to excel
the distinguished Secretary in the domain
of natural history, for he insisted that the
mothers never for an instant leave their
little ones during the suckling period. Sir
Charles was righ't. The mother suckles the
youngster only 12 davs. and eats nothing in
the meantime except some bits of seaweed
that may come within reach. This fact has
lately been demonstrated by the commis
sioners, who killed several female seals
during the suckling time and found in their
stomachs nothing but a little seaweed and
some pebbles. ,
Nature TUvali the Bees.
At the mouth of Nehalem river, on the
coast of Oregon, a very queer substance is
found. It has the appearance of a mineral
at first sight, but on close inspection,, and
under practical test, it appears to be pure
beeswax. It has all the useful properties of
beeswax, and it Is sold in Astoria at the
regnlar market price of the bee's wax. It
is washed ashore at high tide in quantities
ranging from a lump the size of a walnut to
a chunk weighing 150 pounds. It is also
found on shore, in black soil where trees
are growing, at considerable elevations
above the water.
A piece of this strange substance, has just
been submitted to expert examination itt
New York, and is declared to be what is
known as mineral wax. This substance has
for years been known to exist in the lisnite
beds of the Northwest. The quantities
found on the Oregon coast would seem to
indicate the existence of a tertiary lignite
bed in the neighborhood. It belongs to the
hydco-carbon series allied to the retinites
and ambers fossil remains of resinous trees
of the tertiary age.
Lake Dwellers of the Present Day.
It is a singular fact that in our day there
are lake dwellers whose habitations are al
most exactly like those of people who lived
in Switzerland thousands of years before
the dawn of European history. Thousands
of the natives of New Guinea build their
houses over the lakes and rivers, on poles
stuck into the bottom and connected above
the water by withes or thongs. Above
these the houses are constructed. The floors
aiemadeof bamboo or palm branches, and
the sides of the dwellings are formed of
poles, interlaced and bound together.
Villages having several hundred houses
each, and each sheltering from 10 to 30 per
sons, are often found in places naturally
sheltered from high winds. The village's
are connected with the shore by bridges
mat may quicKly oe Displaced in an emer
gency. The lake dwellers of New Guinea,
like their ancient prototypes in Switzerland,
and, like the cliff and cave dwellers, aimed
primarily at safety from attack by hostile
tribes and carnivorous animals.
Niagara Slay I3e Utilized.
Many an inventor has lain awake nights
puzzling bis brain with the problem of util
izing the mighty energy that is wasted in
the waterfall of Niagara. This great power
is now made serviceable, to a limited ex
tent, near the falls; hat the dream of the
inventor has centered in the transmission of
the power to distant points, even to the ex
tent of operating engines in the city of
New York with energy drawn from the
waterfall. ,
From Germany we have just received
much encouragement for the project of
utilizing Niagara at long range. Lauffen-on-the-Neckar
is 108 miles from Frankfort-on-the-main.
At the former place electric
energy has been successfully generated by
waterfall power and transmitted to the lat
ter with a loss of only 25 per cent When
we consider that in the generation of steam
only 14 per cent of the energy can be util
ized, and that only this fraction can be con
veyed to the dynamo for producing elec
tiicity, it will be seen that the Niagara
project is something more than n dream.

W0BKS LIKE A CHAEM.
Two of the Assessors Have Already Turned
in Their Report.
Two of the men who are making the tri
ennial assessmenthave finished their work,
and they turned in their books to the County
Commissioners yesterday. The first to re
port was C. Weigand, of South Versailles
township, and the second N. McLaren, of
Edgewood, but the latter was only beaten
half a length.
This showing disproves the statement and
complaint made by some assessors that one
man could not finish the work in time,
as Messrs. Weigand and McLaran are
in after some ten days' work
while occasionally in times past three as
sessors spent about three times as much
time. The Commissioners took the ground
that one man could do the work sooner than
three, as he would not be obliged to stop
and debate values. It is said the returns
made by the two who 'have reported show
a considerable increase in valuation, and if
the rest of the assessors "do as well justice
will be in a greit measure attained, and
some districts will not escape taxation at
the expense of their'neighbors. as has here
tofore been the case.
